《Destiny Rewritten》Chapter 12
Advertisement
Laurel couldn't help but notice the change in Oliver the more she learned of what he'd been through on the island, since he'd promised no more secrets between them when they started dating again. Something they'd decided to keep quiet for the moment, since their relationship was still in the experimental stage and they weren't sure if it was going last and also because despite being the Green Arrow, Oliver was positive that her father would kill him if he found out they were back together. They'd also refrained from sleeping together again until they were sure that this was real. The only person at this point who knew they were back together was Oliver's bodyguard John Diggle, who Laurel knows Oliver was planning on bringing into the fold soon, she just didn't know when.
Anyways, Oliver had also begun working on setting up his own nightclub in the Glades and Laurel had to admire him for trying to help the Glades by creating more job opportunities, since he'd also told her he was talking to his mother and Walter about establishing programs in the Glades to help people gain training to help find work, in order to further help the Glades and now Laurel was pretty sure he'd end up winning the humanitarian of the year award soon.
Anyways, Laurel was watching the news about James Holder's death and since she knew that was a name on Oliver's list, she decided to call him.
"Hey, what's up?" Oliver asked.
"Hey, I just saw the news about James Holder's death. Was that you?" Laurel asked.
"No, that was not me. I was confronting him last night, but someone crossed him off before I even had a chance. I'm looking into the shooter now." Oliver said and he could practically hear Laurel sigh in relief.

"On another note, I promised my mom I'd be there for the family at the Unidac Auction and I was wondering if you'd be interested in being my date." Oliver said.
"What happened to keeping things on the downlow?" Laurel asked.
"It's your call, but I think I'm ready to let people know we're together again, but only if you are." Oliver said.
"I'll think about it." Laurel said.
"Let me know when you've made up your mind." Oliver said.
"Will do." Laurel said as she hung up.
Oliver was currently doing research into Floyd Lawton, since he knew that Holder had been killed by Deadshot. He knew that Lawton was a tricky one, since even though he was a killer, at the same time, he also saved Lyla's life Markovia, that didn't change the fact that he was still dangerous. Besides, he needed a way to bring John into the fold. Killing the man who supposedly killed Andy was the best way to do that.
Anyways, Oliver was currently planning on going after Deadshot, since this also provided an opportunity to start bringing Felicity into the game, since he had to admit, while they may not have been a great married couple, they did work well together in the field.
Anyways, Oliver was working on Lawton, since he'd gotten confirmation from the Bratva that Lawton still used the same apartment he had before when his phone rang.
"Hello?" Oliver asked when he heard a familiar voice over the phone.
"How soon can you get to Star City?" Oliver asked as the person on the other end of the phone call continued speaking.
"Great, see you soon." Oliver said when he hung up, thinking that person would definitely help him bring John in.

After snagging the laptop from Deadshot's apartment, Oliver found himself walking to a familiar cubicle.
"Are you Felicity Smoak?" Oliver asked.
"That depends, who's asking?" Felicity asked and Oliver smiled, since she still had that snark.
"Look up from your screen." Oliver said as Felicity did exactly that and she stuttered at who was standing there.
"Mr. Queen, I'm so sorry." Felicity said, quickly panicking, but Oliver just chuckled at her.
"Relax, just call me Oliver and all is forgiven." Oliver said and Felicity nodded.
"Okay then, Oliver, what can I do for you?" Felicity asked.
"Do you think you can salvage any of the data on this?" Oliver asked, holding out Lawton's computer.
"What happened to this?" Felicity asked, taking the bullet ridden computer.
"Let's just say I was in a less than savory part of town. Took a few bullets. Any chance you can retrieve the data on it?" Oliver asked.
"I can try. I'll let you know if you can come up with anything." Felicity said and Oliver nodded.
"Let me know." Oliver said.

Mortis Operandi 1- New Hire
Thank you for reading, I have to start with that. The feedback and encouragement from RoyalRoad users helped me finish my book. I left the unedited version up as I worked on editing and making it a little more polished. However the time has come for me to put it on Amazon and hopefully let other people read the story. If you have Kindle unlimited you should be able to read the story there. If you just want to order an ebook version you can do that as well. I should have a paperback version coming up. https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07T46B4NM Again thank you for reading and helping me on this journey. It hasn't ended however, my second book which I'm hoping to do well enough that reading the first isn't completely necessary, is still being worked on here, https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/24562/mortis-operandi-2--terms-and-conditions . Any feedback, comments, even critism is welcome as I work on giving you the best version of my story. I'll leave the first two chapters up here, unless Amazon says otherwise. There should be enough differences to avoid issues though. THANK YOU! Thank you! thank you! __________________________________ Adventurers enter dungeons every day. Battling evil monsters, defying dangerous terrain, triumphing over devious traps... ... but none of them ever ask why? That arrow trap, who reloads it? The pitfall trap, who cleans out the bodies and sharpens the spikes? What if the grates get clogged, where will the blood and gore drain? When you are trying to study ancient lore or plan on conquering a kingdom, you don't want to worry about all that. You just want peace. Mortis Operandi is a different kind of company. One that celebrates diversity. One that celebrates value in individuals. With flexible pay and plenty of advancement opportunities, it is a company that knows its workers are it's most valuable asset. As they design, build, and install traps, rooms, obstacles, and repair they are a one stop shop. When a possible recall sets events into motion, the company must pivot in a new paradigm of full circle Dungeon service. The Goblin Eft No-toes has a solution that entwines ex-adventurer Elric into the business of death. *Note the above statements are forward looking statements. In no way do they promote or suggest that Mortis Operandi will project greater sales or revenue. Understand that investing in a company does involve some risks, and possibly much rewards.
