"Felicity, I need a favor." Oliver said as he called her as he walked into his office at Queen Consolidated.
"Yeah what is it?" Felicity asked.
"I need you to run background checks on all the members of the Queen Consolidated board, since Slade is smart enough to have already embedded someone in the company's board in the event Isabel couldn't, since I've given security very strict instructions that she is not to be allowed on the premises." Oliver said.
"I'm also working on exposing her past to get her not only fired from Stellmoor International, but also arrested for her crimes, since her name is on the list." Felicity said.
"How did I not notice that before?" Oliver asked him.
"You were blinded by her pretty face." Felicity teased him and Oliver rolled his eyes.
"Very funny. But will you just do it?" Oliver asked.
"Relax, I'm on it. I've also discovered something interesting about the city council that I think you'll find interesting." Felicity said.
"What?" Oliver asked.
"I think I may have discovered why Pollard was so intent on taking vigilante down." Felicity said.
"Really?" Oliver asked.
"Yes, it would appear that Pollard wasn't so much trying to keep the city safe from vigilantes as much as she was trying to keep her own criminal activities hidden." Felicity said and Oliver just chuckled and shook his head.
"Should've known. Guess Vigilante was right about her after all. Why didn't we ever look into this before?" Oliver asked.
"Probably because vigilantes going after the council member who was behind the anti vigilante law probably would not have helped our case." Felicity said and Oliver chuckled.
"Yeah, I guess not. Send the evidence to Quentin, since knowing Pollard, she's likely trying to propose the anti vigilante law right now." Oliver said.

"On it." Felicity said, right as Oliver got another call.
"Sorry I'm getting another call." Oliver said as he switched over.
"Hello." Oliver asked.
"Oliver." Quentin said.
"Quentin, what's going on?" Oliver asked.
"It would appear that your pal Wilson is setting his plot in motion." Quentin said.
"Oh god, what did he do?" Oliver asked.
"Turn on the news and you'll find out that there was a bombing at City Hall this morning, specifically targeting the mayor's office." Quentin said.
"Oh god, how many died?" Oliver asked.
"Basically the city's entire leadership, the mayor, deputy mayor, chief of staff, district attorney, hell even the police commissioner was killed." Quentin said.
"What about the city council?" Oliver asked.
"A few of them survived, since they weren't here, but Pollard and Kullens were both among the casualties." Quentin said.
"Of course they were. And I'm assuming a certain alderman is already trying to capitalize on it." Oliver said.
"Yep." Quentin said.
"Thanks for the update. Looks like Slade has improved his game in this universe. I gotta give him some credit, he may be a madman right now, but he is efficient." Oliver said.
"On that we agree. Look Oliver, I know he ended up not being a complete bastard in the end, since he did help save us from Lian Yu, but right now, my daughter is in his crosshairs. I lost her once." Quentin said.
"And if he tries to make history repeat itself on that, I'll make him wish he died on the Amazo." Oliver assured Quentin.
"Just wanted to be sure we were clear on that." Quentin said.
"The last time I fought Slade, I did so with one hand tied behind my back and my mother died because of it. I want to save him, but if it comes down to a choice between him and everyone else I care about, he will die by my hand." Oliver said.

"I'm pretty sure you're the only one who stands a chance at accomplishing that feat. Well besides Sara and who knows when she is right now." Quentin said and Oliver chuckled before hanging up and sitting down at his desk, wondering how he was going to respond to Slade's new plans.

8 188The Weather Vane
This is the first few chapter of my new book available on Amazon. The beginning is very light and fun, but more mature content comes later. From medieval fantasy to ultra high-tech to dinosaurs, The Weather Vane is a grippingly fast-paced adventure full of fun and excitement, literary flourish, and colorful characters. A group of ascendant masters find themselves in the afterlife and learn that they are newly recruited into the cosmic battle of good versus evil. Before they can join the fight, shipwreck strikes and they are lost in the ether. Stranded in a magical land beyond the reaches of the universe, The Weather Vane follows our crew of heroes as they try to piece things back together even while The Dark Lord’s forces march, maraud, and murder at every turn. Themes of darkness chase the overall levity of The Weather Vane which suffers not a lull as the climax begins near the beginning of the book and drives on through the greatly satisfying finish. The most epic of epics.
