"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.

Starlight Antiquities
There is a place in the galaxy that deals in antiquities of all kinds, human and non-human alike. Its inventory of artifacts is colossal as is its inventory of mercs who they hire to acquire any artifact a client may wish that is yet to come into their possession. The ill-reputable business is constantly rubbing against the changing tolerance of the Union's government, and there are many security officers who would love nothing better than to vaporize the whole place with its owners inside. Yet, there are many tasks that nobody can do better, especially in the vastness of deep space where Union law is worth less than the energy needed to display it. One of its jobs involves finding an artifact that may not only hold the future of the human race but may also disturb the balance of the whole galaxy. *** While waiting for the next season of Mandalorian and the Witcher, and rewatching Firefly for the gazillionth of time, I decided to write this space-based series. The series has some litRPG elements in it, but it does not read like one. So, you won't run into any blue screens here. Yet, I wanted to use litRPG to give another dimension to this whole story and make it as unique as possible. This is a work-in-progress. Hope to keep on improving and fixing my mistakes as I go along.
