《Specter of Oliver Queen》Chapter 4
Advertisement
After taking a break from watching the video for an hour the group was now back to continue watching.
When the video starts back a mercenary comes and takes Oliver out of his cage and leads him to a place where people were crowded around two people fighting. One of the men who was fighting was the man in the orange and black mask. The man in the mask was beating the other guy up pretty bad and by the time he was done, the other guy was dead.
"Looks like we have our next challenger." Fyres said as he looked at Oliver.
"Oh God, Ollie is going to get killed." Laurel said.
"Yeah, he is going to get the shit beat out of him." Tommy said.
"He will be able to hold his own within the next year or so." Sara said quietly, but everyone still heard her.
"You got to the island at some point, didn't you?" Laurel asked.
"I did, and he was definitely not this weak Oliver that he is now." Sara said, which made everyone happy.
Oliver was pushed into the ring, but Yao Fei spoke up and made sure that he was the one who was going to fight Oliver. Yao Fei did not take it easy on Oliver and then he finally put Oliver in a sleeper hold until it looked like he was dead. Some mercenaries took Oliver to a cliff overlooking a river and were about to push him in when Yao Fei stopped them.
"I will take care of this." Yao Fei said.
He walked to Oliver's body and touched his neck in a position that would make him wake up and put a map in his pocket and then pushed him into the water. Several minutes later Oliver woke up in the water and found that Yao Fei had left him a map and followed it to a crashed plane. When he walked inside, he was attacked by a man who he didn't know. Oliver said that Yao Fei sent him, and the man stopped attacking him. The man then gave him a sword to see if he was able to fight at all, which he was not. The man knocked him out and tied him up. When Oliver came to, the man asked why he shouldn't kill him.
"Because Yao Fei obviously sent me here to help you." Oliver said.
"You can't even fight. How are you supposed to help me?" the man asked.
"I don't know. I am just here because Yao Fei sent me." Oliver said.
"And where exactly is Yao Fei?" the man asked.
"He has joined the other side, but obviously not really, because he did save me so that I could come here." Oliver said.

"You are useless to me." The man said and Oliver knew that the man was about to kill him, so he dislocated his thumb and was able to get free of his bonds.
"You might not be useless after all. I mean someone who is willing to dislocate his bones to get out of bonds obviously has some uses." The man said and they shook hands.
"My name is Slade Wilson." Slade said.
"Oliver Queen." Oliver said.
"Well kid, there is a plane coming to this island in a couple of weeks and we will have to take the airfield to be able to get on that plane. I will train you the best I can in the amount of time that we have." Slade said.
"Ok, so when do we start?" Oliver asked.
"In the morning." Slade said.
"Well, I am glad Oliver has found someone that will help him out on the island." Thea said.
"Yeah, he seems like a nice guy after he finally realized that Oliver could be useful." Moira said.
"I actually get to see what Oliver saw in Slade. By the time that I had met him he wasn't this nice." Sara said.
"What do you mean by that?" Tommy asked.
"You will find out soon enough." Conner said.
The video then showed Oliver's training. It was pretty much Slade kicking Oliver's ass for most of the time, even though near the end you could see that Oliver was getting better.
"Ok kid, it is time to go and take the airfield so that we can go home." Slade said.
"Do you really think that I am ready for this?" Oliver asked.
"Hell no, but we don't have any choice if we want to get out of here." Slade said and Oliver nodded.
The got to the airfield and Slade told Oliver his plan. "I am going to take out all of the men that are patrolling the ground. You will just be responsible for the man in the control booth." Slade said and Oliver nodded.
Slade took out all the men patrolling easily, and Oliver got up to the control booth pretty easily but when he went to attack the man in the booth, he was not able to take him down. Slade finally got there and killed him before he was able to call for help.
"Damn kid, you are pretty much useless." Slade said.
"I am going to take a look around and make sure there are no more men patrolling." Slade said and he left the booth.
Oliver then saw a phone and he picked it up and dialed a number.
"I wonder who he is calling?" Quentin said.

Answering his question, they all heard a voice that they all knew very well. It was Laurel answering on the other end of the phone. Oliver never answered her though, and by the time that he was going to Slade came back in the booth and cut the phone line.
"What do you think you are doing? You will lead them right to us." Slade said.
"Oh my God, I am sorry Moira and Thea. I should have told you about the call. I didn't know it was him though. Why didn't he answer me?" Laurel asked.
"He probably didn't answer because he knew that you hated him because you would have thought that he cheated on you with me." Sara said.
"It is ok Laurel. You didn't know it was him. There was no way for you to know." Moira said.
An hour later the pilot of the plane called over the comms asking a security question and Oliver was able to answer it because it was part of a book he had read in high school.
"Who knew that me getting Ollie to read that book, would help him out one day." Laurel said and everyone laughed.
Oliver then looked at Slade and asked, "How long do you think that it will take for the plane to get here?"
"About thirty minutes. Why?" Slade asked.
"I am going to get Yao Fei." Oliver said.
"There is not enough to for that kid." Slade said.
"I am not leaving him here." Oliver said as he left to make his way to the camp where Yao Fei was.
"Why would Oliver leave, when he will be able to leave the island if he just stayed where he was?" Thea asked.
"Oliver is finally becoming the man that I always saw in him. I always saw the good in him even when everyone else just saw the bad." Laurel said.
"The island is changing him for the better, so it seems." Moira said and everyone nodded at that.
Oliver got to the camp and found Yao Fei alone in a tent. He went in and tried to talk Yao Fei into leaving with him.
"Come on Yao Fei. Slade and I have a plane to get us out of here tonight." Oliver said.
"I am sorry. You should go back but I am can't leave." Yao Fei said.
"Why not?" Oliver asked.
"Because I have something that belongs to him." Fyres said as he entered the tent with a young woman with him.
"Who is she to you, Yao Fei?" Oliver asked.
"She is my daughter and as long as he has her, I can't leave." Yao Fei said.
"Take Mr. Queen into custody." Fyres said to one of his men.
At this point there was a lot of noise outside which cause Fyres to leave and it gave Oliver time to knock the guy out that was getting ready to restrain him. He and the girl took off running but they saw that Yao Fei was restrained again so they ran and found Slade and were making their way back to the airfield to get to the plane when they saw it fly over their heads.
"Shit, looks like we are stuck here for a while longer kid." Slade said.
"Who is you friend?" Slade asked.
"This is Yao Fei's daughter. That is why he was working with them." Oliver said.
"My name is Shado. We need to go back and get my father." Shado said.
"Well, we can't do that now. They will be looking for us. Let's go back to our place and we can discuss this more there." Slade said.
"She can fight Slade. She took out several guys on our way out." Oliver said.
"Well, at least I will have some help this time then." Slade said.
"I can help you train Oliver as well." Shado said.
"There is no use. It will take to long." Slade said.
"Maybe you just need another approach. I will teach him archery. That way he won't have to be in close contact with anyone." Shado said.
"If this works, the kid might be able to help after all." Slade said.
"I think I am going to like this Shado." Moira said.
"She was a very nice person for the very short time that I knew her." Sara said.
"Did Oliver sleep with her Sara?" Laurel asked.
"No, he told me that they had a brother/sister type of relationship just like he and Slade were like brothers." Sara said.
"Good, because I never cheated on him either, even though we thought he was died. Not that some people didn't try to get me to sleep with them." Laurel said as she gave Tommy a look, who had to look down at the floor at that because he knew it was true.
"I had too much on my mind, like making sure my kid was being raised right." Laurel said.
"You are doing a very good job of that as well, my dear." Moira said.
"Thanks Moira. Anyways, so what's next on this video?" Laurel said as the video started to roll again.
