《Destiny Rewritten》Chapter 27
Advertisement
This chapter will involve an old friend from Central City moving to Star City and a change in leadership in Argus.
"What do you need?" Waller asked Oliver as he, John, Laurel and Sara stood in front of her in Argus headquarters.
"You heard me Waller. A training facility, our current base is inadequate for the training we currently." Oliver said.
"Tell me what kind of training and perhaps I can even do more than that." Waller said.
"You know I'll never do that." Oliver said.
"Then get out of here." Waller said.
"Actually Amanda, the only person here who needs to scram is you." Alex Danvers said as she entered the room.
"Agent Danvers, what brings the DEO's second in command out here?" Waller asked.
"Supergirl has brought your highly questionable actions to light at the DEO." Alex said and Oliver grinned, knowing that Kara had come through.
"Really, like what?" Waller asked, surprisingly calm, though internally, she was actually sweating.
"Shooting down a plane and risking destabilizing China's economy to take down a single target while also killing hundreds, holding a family hostage to force one man's cooperation, utilizing dangerous criminals for black ops assignments, the list goes on and on. And Director Henshaw has decided your services are no longer required. Amanda Waller, you are terminated from Argus and you are also under arrest. Take her away." Alex said and while the agents looked a bit conflicted at first, they also knew that even if Waller still had authority, Alex outranked her and did what she said.
"You can't do this." Waller insisted.
"Actually, I can and I will. Director Henshaw has approved it." Alex said, honestly a bit smug, since she'd never liked Waller.
"Where she should we take her ma'am?" one of the guards asked.

"Take her to task force X. I'm betting it's members will be thrilled to have her join them." Alex said and they nodded before dragging her away.
"So, who's in charge of Argus?" Lyla asked, wondering if it would be her.
"While normally it would be you agent Michaels, Director Henshaw has actually assigned me as the new director of Argus, since he wants someone he trusts running and reforming this organization." Alex said and Lyla actually seemed a bit relieved.
"Thank goodness. I've seen what sitting behind that desk can do and frankly, I prefer being out in the field, not behind a desk." Lyla said.
"Oh, don't get me wrong, unlike Waller, I will be right out in the field with my agents, but I'm glad you won't feel like you were uspurped." Alex said.
"As long as you prove to be a fair leader, I'll gladly follow you." Lyla said and Alex nodded before turning to Oliver and his team.
"Alex." Sara asked, surprised to see her, since they'd had a one night stand in Central City.
"Hey Sara. Nice to see you again." Alex said, giving her a flirty smile.
"You know her?" Laurel asked.
"I'll tell you later." Sara said.
"Do you know who we are?" Oliver asked.
"I know you're the Green Arrow, Sara is the White Canary and Laurel is the Black Canary. Just like how I know who Supergirl is." Alex said.
"Who is she?" Laurel asked.
"Not my place to say." Alex said, not knowing that Oliver already knew who Supergirl is.
"So, can you give me what I'm asking for?" Oliver asked, trusting Alex with his life.
"Tell me what you want a training area for first." Alex said.
"Laurel is one of the people affected by the accelerator explosion. She has powers now. We need a more ideal place to train her to use them." Oliver explained.
"Agent Michaels, get them a list of defunct Argus and DEO installations in the city. Maybe they can turn on into a more suitable base then whatever they're using now." Alex said.
"Right away Director Danvers." Lyla said as she walked away.

Dauntless: Origins
Snow white hair, blue eyes, pale. Devil, monster, mutt, failure.This story follows one Tyr Faeron, crown prince, heir primus and mass murderer. A wrathful, angry, and lost young man that has made it his goal to hunt down the men that killed his mother - and he is on the cusp of finishing the promise he'd made before her cairn stones so many years ago. On the surface he is duplicitous, whimsical, and base of cunning - but within the depths beyond the many masks he wears, something is waiting. Waiting for an end, the end he'd come to long for, whether it be to himself or any possible threats in his vicinity. After that long labor of vengeance is completed... Nobody knows, not even him - an arrogant and otherwise solitary individual with nothing in the way of friends - only the brothers of the blackguard who follow him through life as he pursues this mission. He was born a prince, but he'd be called a disappointment - failing to manifest the great power that he was born to before being summarily discarded by his father, a 250 year old 'primus'. That word again... Men who can shatter mountains and level cities, that's what he was supposed to be. Some call them demi-gods, all Tyr sees is a poor excuse for a parent. Time had made him bitter, cruel, and arguably psychotic - seeing only enemies wherever he looks. They'd come for him, too, one day - to wipe the slate clean and make room for another - and it's his conviction to ensure that he dies while taking as many of those rats with him. This is a story about finding acceptance, growth, and understanding - from the point of view of a cold and brutal individual who wears many masks. Of someone who was born to be the greatest emperor the eastern continent has ever seen - but he failed in that. Strong, yes, but only in the context of a man - Tyr's magic is weak. His convictions are weak. He has been made a beast of instinct by loss and a constant confronting of his own impotency in the face of his father. A mythos that stretches across planes, of magic, a pantheon of cruel gods. Of someone who's dedicated his entire mind to the art of killing a man, and none to living a normal childhood or coming to understand friendship, empathy, or compassion. The first five years of his life a mystery, a hole none have ever been willing to fill, leaving him warped and twisted. His formative years gone and what must've been most of his humanity along with it. Now 17, he is on the cusp of leaving the city he'd never been permitted to leave for what might be the first time in his life. Always searching, though he won't know what for, for some time. An episodic that follows experience and symbolism rather than a never ending series of battles - where the conflict lay in constantly searching for wholeness in lieu of great villains or heroes. This is where it all started, the origin, the tale told a million times - and yet it hadn't been, 'reality' is tricky like that. The greatest lie ever told by the tongue that speaks is that any of this was real at all.
