Hope's POV-

"Roy." I whispered running over to him. "You're on the wrong suit." I hissed.

He nodded with a laugh. I ran to a room to change into my blue hood.

"You're fast." Roy stated when I came out. "But I'm faster." He smirked before jumping out and open window. I rolled my eyes and followed.

We got to the coordinates Arrow gave us.

I see him standing in the shadows. "Okay so who robbed the bank?" I asked.

"The guy calls himself The Master, apparently he had a woman with him and she calls herself Mistress." He says. "We don't know-" He started but gets cut off by Felicity. He was getting cut off a lot.

"Found him-well them. They don't actually want to be hiding." She stated. "You should get back here."

"On our way." Oliver nodded.

Once back at the cave we saw Felicity watching a video. "See there." She pointed on the screen.

A guy wearing a white eye mask in shaped in a "M" was writing on a board.

"What am I looking at?" Oliver asked so Felicity zoomed in. In his coat pocket was a broché for the new fancy restaurant, The Rake.

"Continue the video." Roy ordered her.

Mistress kicked a guy in the face and sits him on his knees. Then the Master shoves the board in the guy's hands.

"Hold it up!" Master demanded as the Mistress cuffed the innocent man's legs to a table. They ran away and the victim holding the board sobbed. Felicity stopes the video with tears in her eyes.

The board read:

I'll be at The Rake tonight at 8:00. I won't hurt anyone unless the police comes or anyone tries to kill me. I want 100 dollars from everyone by 9:00. If anyone hesitates, I will shoot.

"We should go under cover?" Roy suggested Oliver thought for a moment.

"I don't know-" Oliver started.

"I'll go!" I perked up cutting him off. "Going undercover is so rad! I've done it before." Then I mumbled, "Made out with a grand."

"Hope, I don't know if you-" Oliver started again.

"I'll be fine, I promise. I'll keep my ear piece in and I'll take all the orders." I started to beg.

He sighed. "If anything goes south you get out of there immediately and contact us."

"Promise!" I held up my right hand with my left on my chest. "Uh, what should I wear. The dress Thea got for me was most likely for a dance..."

"I have something for you." Felicity spoke up. She went to her purse and pulled out an orange dress.

"Do you always carry dresses in your purse?" I tilted my head looking at her confused. She rolled her eyes.

"Hopefully it'll fit. Good luck."

I walked into the restaurant. I had my hair braided to one side and that's where I hide the ear piece. I saw Master walk in. ((A/N Dobby?))

"Okay well maybe undercover isn't that rad." I said out loud.

"You can leave at anytime." Oliver spoke.

"No! I want to do this! Stop underestimating me!" I hissed

Then I heard doors lock.

"Everyone to that wall!" Master yelled pointing to the wall on the other side of the room. I slowly walked over there.

"Too late now, they've locked the doors." I whispered to the earpiece. "Undercover is not so rad."

"You!" Master yelled and one of his henchmen-when did he get henchmen?-grabbed me and pulled over to Master.

"Now, isn't that a lovely dress? I think I'll use you as my hostage." He laughed. I widen my eyes.

Oliver's POV-

"That's it I'm going." I burst out angrily.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Felicity stood up. "Do you want to get Hope killed? Because if the Master sees the Arrow then that's what he'll do, kill her."

"Who said I was going as the Arrow?" I replied. with a smirk.

I buttoned my black coat over my suit and run to the front door of The Rake. I tried to open it, but it was locked. I knocked on the door and the Master came over with Hope.

"Can I come in?" I yelled through the door. "I'm starving!"

Master opened the door. "Mr. Queen, correct?" I nodded. "Always late." He mumbled. "Go sit with your fellow citizens."

"What? I came here to eat." I said pretending to be shocked.

"Do it now or be killed, Mr. Queen." He muttered bored. I put my hands up and walk over there. Hope struggled to walk and breath with Master holding her.

"Does everyone see this girl?!" He yelled.

There were mumbles of yes, and heads bobbed.

"Good because I've changed the rules a bit." He chuckled evilly. He tied Hope to a chair and walked to the crowd of people grabbing a man.

"Police." He mumbled happily. He took the officer's gun and knocked him out, taking his pager.

"Dispatch, oh dispatch, are you in?" Master asked into the pager. "Hmm. is that right? Oh well." He chuckled psychotically.

"Who is this?!" A voice in the pager yelled back.

"I've got hostages, so listen carefully! I want a helicopter and fifty grand!" He yelled into the pager.

"Oh-okay. Just give us your address."

"Deliver it to 57 main!" He yelled. "Every hour it's not delivered I kill a hostage!" Master finished and tossed the pager aside.

"Lookie lookie, I've got a cookie." He sayed walking around Hope. "You'll be the first to go. He laughed. Hope however looked unamused. She's faced death before. Except she was zip cuffed to a chair and I couldn't help save her this time. She simply scuffed.

"What?!" The Master looked at her.

"Nothing, nothing." She said and dangled the zip cuffs so I could see.

I sighed in relief.

"Being kidnapped isn't rad, bro!" She sighed boredly

"''?" He spat. "I am not this 'bro', you address me as Master!" He screamed and sliced a knife across her face. I was getting up when she shook her head.
