《New Earth: Arrow》Chapter 7
Advertisement
The following week found Oliver once again standing in a courtroom, but unlike the last time he'd been in one, this time he was not on trial. He was simply giving his statement so that the courts could deem him alive.
"Mr. Queen, could you please inform the courts of what happened?" the lawyer asked and Oliver nodded.
"I'll never forget that day. After the Gambit went down, I dove into the water, trying to save Sara Lance. But then, before I could drown, my father pulled me into a life raft alongside himself and his bodyguard Dave Hackett. We drifted for days, but when my father realized that there was only enough food and water for maybe one person, he shot Hackett and then told me to survive before shooting himself in the head right in front of me." Oliver said, it being incredibly hard for him to admit, but he knew he needed to do so.
"Thank you Mr. Queen." the lawyer said as everyone tried to avoid showing the shock they felt at hearing what had happened.
"Your honor, we are filing to revoke the death certificate for Oliver Queen. However, as Mr. Queen just stated, we will not be filing to revoke the death certificate for Robert Queen. It appears that the Queen family is only entitled to one miracle I'm afraid." the lawyer said and Oliver took a deep breath, though he was happy that he'd gotten that off his chest early on.
"That couldn't have been easy telling everyone about your dad." John said to Oliver as they got in the car.
"The truth had to come out. Remember what happened when I kept this secret before?" Oliver asked.
"Of course. But considering what else was going on when that happened, I have to ask, what exactly are you planning to do when Emiko comes to town." John asked.

"I talked to J'onn about sending me some tech to restore other people's memories without his assistance and I plan on using it on her. To remind her that Dante had her mother killed and that the Ninth Circle betrayed her. She needs to remember who her real family is." Oliver said.
"Still, what happens if she doesn't want to join the team?" John asked.
"Then I'll deal with it. But I have faith that if she remembers the truth, then she'll do the right thing." Oliver said.
"I hope so, man." John said.
"Anyways, now that I'm legally alive again, it's time to pay a visit to Central City. I owe Barry a conversation and I'm hoping that Caitlin can help figure how Thea got her powers, plus, since I know Cisco is going to want to make all our suits and while he has measurements for your suit, my suit and Roy's, I want him to be able to make suits for Thea and Laurel to work with their powers." Oliver said and John nodded.
"Got it." John said.
Thea was on her way home from school when she heard someone walk up behind her.
"You know, it's not safe to walk home alone from school. Especially since you can afford a limo." Roy said with a smile as she turned to face him.
"Well, considering the fact that I can drown anyone who attacks me at will, I think I'll be fine." Thea said and Roy could tell that she was very tempted to attack him, not that he could blame her.
"Okay before you kill me, will you hear me out?" Roy asked and Thea nodded.
"Talk quickly." Thea said.
"Look, when I left, I thought for sure that I was doing the right thing. That I was protecting you from the monster that had taken me over." Roy said.

"You seem to forget that no one understood that bloodlust monster better than me." Thea said.
"I know. But it was about more than just trying to keep you safe. I needed to find a way to deal with the bloodlust before I could commit myself to you. And yeah, I know that just sounds like an excuse, but Thea, I really am sorry. And I know I don't deserve another chance, but I am asking you for one." Roy said and Thea smiled.
"Lucky for you, I do understand what you were going through. As long as you promise not to freak out and ditch me again, then yes, I will give you one more chance." Thea said and Roy smiled as they kissed.
However, the moment they pulled away, Roy could tell something was wrong with Thea, since she began to get dizzy and passed out in his arms.
"Thea? Thea wake up." Roy said as he tried to shake her awake, but with no luck.
He quickly pulled out his phone and called Oliver.
"Oliver, you need to get here quickly. Something's wrong with Thea, she just passed out in front of me." Roy said.
"Where are you, I'll be there as fast as I can." Oliver said as Roy gave him the location before hanging up and resumed doing everything he could to keep Thea alive and try to get her to regain consciousness.

Return of the Woodcutter
Aito Walker was a self-proclaimed martial artist, a criminal, a broken man, and a fishing slave who later became a woodcutter before dying due to his heavy consumption of alcohol.With thousands of other humans, he is forcefully revived into a boundless grey space by the gods of a foreign world, Iris, to take part in a never-ending war waged against Fearmongers. A race capable of corrupting living beings and inducing fear, even the bravest of warriors cannot resist—when the Fearmongers do not kill them, that is.To bait humans into this conflict, the gods offer the mortals powers in exchange of eternal servitude and the completion of trials before finally entering Iris.Even though Aito doesn’t agree with it, he sees in Iris a chance to atone for his past misdeeds, in this fantasy world of swords and magic filled with many races, where everything seems possible.He will pave his own path despite the gods he despises trying to manipulate him into doing their bidding.Aito will start with almost nothing but his wit, a peculiar system, and increased strength—much like other revived humans.Bearing a sin—he could not, cannot, and will not forget—haunting him to this day, Aito will strive to regain what little honor he has left.He will suffer and, at times, fail. Taking advantage of his weaknesses, the Fearmongers, demigods, gods, and many others will hinder his path.But a powerful yearning will keep him from falling apart. An ever-burning flame melting away the despair and welding back the broken pieces of courage.A single desire.«I will find redemption no matter the cost.»………Or not, hun, who knows? The book isn’t done yet. Haha—SLAP!«Who put this guy in the synopsis narration?! Get him out of here and launch the warnings! Now!»***WARNINGS:— The MC is human. If you’re looking for a perfect MC, you’ll only be wasting your time here. However, if you’re looking for an MC who will LEARN, GROW because of his flaws. An MC who will try his hardest to overcome adversity, then you’re in the right place.— No harems. However, it doesn’t mean the characters can’t fool around without having love interests. A relationship isn’t necessary for people to satisfy their physical desires.— You will find a few typos, grammatical and wording issues, that’s certain. I’ll do my best to bring you guys quality content and such issues will either be nonexistent or extremely few. However, one man can only do so much. If I get enough support, I’ll hire an EDITOR that will look at the chaps with a fresh eye. And POOF! Issues no more. Improved quality. Happier author and reader. Not sure if the editor will be happy tho.— The first three chapters are fast-paced as to quickly get into the nitty-gritty but slow down afterward to give the story the time it needs to progress accordingly.— The book can, never mind, it will contain «strong» language, gore and violence.— Comedy, as you know it (and if you don’t, now you know) is subjective. So you might not like the jokes.— If you truly read that until the end you have my virtual congratulations ‘cause I sure as hell wouldn’t have done that.
