《Specter of Oliver Queen》Chapter 16

Advertisement

When Oliver, Conklin and Taiana get back to the camp Conklin goes to Reiter's tent and tells him what he has found, and that Oliver did not kill Taiana like he said he did.

Reiter was able to see that this was the truth, so he let Conklin whip Oliver just as Oliver had done to him the day before. Something ended up catching Reiter's eye though and it caused him to stop Conklin from whipping Oliver anymore.

"Stop. I think Mr. Queen might be some use to us after all." Reiter said.

"Oh, come on. I deserve to whip him some more." Conklin said.

"You've done enough. That tattoo on his ribs will be of use to us soon." Reiter said.

"You want me to stop because of a tattoo?" Conklin asked.

"Yes. That tattoo is very important, and Mr. Queen will also be very helpful with finding what I am looking for because he knows this island well." Reiter said.

"I will help you on one condition. You have to let Taiana live." Oliver said.

"I think I can work with that." Reiter said.

Later Oliver is tied up and Reiter is torturing him to find out what he knows about the maps that he got off of the ship. Oliver doesn't give anything away but when Reiter is done with him Oliver is so out of it that he passes out. While he is out, he has a visit from an old friend.

"Shado?" Oliver asked.

"Oliver, you can't let Reiter get to what he is looking for. If he gets it no one will be able to stop him." Shado said.

"I don't know what to do here." Oliver said.

"You do what you do best. You survive." Shado said.

"I need you to take this stone and keep it with you. It is the only way for Reiter to get what he is looking for." Shado said.

"I will take care of it." Oliver said and Shado slipped the rock in Oliver's hand and then he wakes up and see that the rock is really in his hand.

Oliver is then put in a cell with Taiana. Oliver is still out of it. He then decides to tell Taiana the truth about what happened to her brother. Oliver also tells her that the rock will help them find what Reiter is looking for.

Taiana then takes the rock from Oliver and gives it to Reiter. "Oliver said that this rock would help you find what you are looking for. In return I want my freedom. I can't stay with the man who kill my brother.

"You will stay with him and you will nurse him back to health. If Mr. Queen dies, then you die." Reiter said.

Taiana then then turned back to Oliver and helped him get cleaned up and patched up. After a while Taiana was where she was willing to forgive Oliver.

They both talked for a while about their families. "My mom and my sister already think that I am dead. If I end up dying here and you make it home, I would like you to go and tell them what really happened to me." Oliver said.

"I can do that if you promise to go and see my mother and tell her what really happened here. What about the girl in the picture?" Taiana asked.

"She is the love of my life. She thinks that I cheated on her with her own sister, but I didn't do that. If you could tell her that I love her that would be good too." Oliver said.

"I can do that. I just hope I am able to make it back home. My mother work for this man that pretty much treats her like a slave. He is a very powerful man, and it would be nice to get her away from him. He is like the leader of one of the gangs that is in the city." Taiana said.

"I might be able to help with that if I get out of here. I know some people in the Bratva." Oliver said.

"He is a rival to the Bratva." Taiana said.

Soon Reiter comes back and tells them that the rock was able to help him find where the object he was looking for was. "It looks like all of you prisoners are going to have to dig to find what I want." Reiter said.

Oliver is taken to Reiter's quarters by Conklin and Reiter tells Oliver that he and the rest of the prisoners will have to dig and then he leaves the room. Oliver and Conklin talk for a while but the Oliver attacks Conklin.

"What are you doing Queen? You don't even know what Reiter has planned. Once he gets what he wants he is going to kill every one of you prisoners. It is what will give him his powers. That Object works off the souls of dead people." Conklin said.

"Maybe, but you won't be around to see it." Oliver said as they fought for a bit longer and then Oliver was finally able to snap his neck.

"Well, I am glad that guy is finally gone." Thea said and everyone nodded.

Later after the prisoners had been digging for a while, they end up finding the way into the tunnels that lead to the object that Reiter is looking for. All of a sudden, Conklin's body, which is now possessed walks out of the tunnels and stops everyone from going in. Oliver steps forward and the tattoo on his ribs glow and the spirit lets him and everyone pass.

"Wow that must be some really special tattoo." Thea said.

"I think it is. I have heard rumors of objects that can give you powers and there are only certain ways you can stop them. I think the tattoo is one of those objects." Sara said.

Once inside the tunnels, Oliver leads the way until they get to what looks like an alter and it has an idol on it. They have finally found what Reiter had been looking for the whole time that he has been on the island.

Oliver takes the idol and he and Taiana run to hide in the tunnels. They end up finding some of the other soldiers and they knock them out and they take their weapons. Reiter who had already gotten powers from the idol once he killed a couple of people was starting to get weak because the idol needed more death. He then found Oliver and Taiana and Oliver decided to fight him because it looked like Reiter was starting to lose his powers. Reiter ended up getting the idol back.

Oliver and Taiana didn't go after him though. They decided to go and help the other prisoners. Once they had everyone escape the cells, Oliver set a bomb off in the tunnels so that hopefully Reiter would be caught in there and die or at least not be able to get out. Reiter ends up killing two of his soldiers so that he would be able to stay alive and eventually escape.

"I was really hoping that guy was going to be dead now." Moira said.

"Unfortunately, nothing is that easy when it comes to Oliver's five years away, it looks like." Quentin said.

Reiter ends up getting out of the tunnels and finds all of the prisoners and starts to kill some of them. They try to shoot Reiter, but the bullets do not hurt him. He is momentarily surprised when enables Oliver and Taiana to still the idol back and run. Unfortunately, Taiana is carrying the idol and she is beginning to get powers from the idol. They have to end up killing a lot of Reiter's soldiers so that they can survive. This has a bad effect though. It is powering the idol which is causing Taiana to slowly be taken over by darkness.

"You should feel this Oliver. It is like I can do whatever I want. I can take this home and be able to free my mother and family." Taiana said.

Oliver takes the idol from her and tries to talk some sense into her. He can see that she is being taken over by the powers of the idol. They were too much for her.

"You need to think about what you are doing. You are not this person that you are becoming. It is the power that is talking. You need to be strong and fight this." Oliver said.

"I don't want to fight it. I have never felt like this in my life. I feel like I can do anything that I want." Taiana said.

"You can do that without the idol. Let go of the power and we can go and help your family together." Oliver said.

Reiter then shows up and tries to get the idol so that he can get more power. He sees a plane flying overhead and takes it down with his powers, which allows Reiter and Taiana to both get ore power. Oliver and Taiana were eventually able to get the upper hand on Reiter and they killed him.

"Finally, that man is dead." Tommy said.

"I don't think this is quite over yet guys." Roy said.

"I think you are right." Quentin said.

Taiana then turns to Oliver and says, "Oliver, I need you to kill me. The power is to much. It is taking me over."

"I am not going to kill you Taiana. There has to be another way. Maybe once the killing stops the power will wear off." Oliver said.

"I can't take that chance Oliver. I need you to kill me now." Taiana said.

Oliver knew that she was right, so he walked up to her and gave her a hug and then he snapped her neck. Some of the other prisoners saw Oliver lowering her to the ground and thought that he had killed her for no reason.

"You killed her." The man said.

No, she wanted me to. She was corrupted by the power of the idol and couldn't take all of the power." Oliver said and the prisoners seemed to understand that.

Oliver then called Waller to come in and take the prisoners home and to also take the idol into custody so that no one could use it ever again.

"Why do I get the feeling that that is not the last time we will see that thing?" Thea asked.

"Because we are not that lucky." Laurel said.

Waller and Oliver talked for a few minutes. "So, do you want me to give you a ride home now or are you going to go somewhere else?" Waller asked.

"Not yet. I have a promise to keep and I need to go to Russia for that promise." Oliver said.

"Well Mr. Queen. I wish you well. If your mission does not go the way you want it to, I will have an opening for you at ARGUS." Waller said.

"I hope I never see you again." Oliver said and then he picked up his crate with his gear and got a ride to Russia.

"Well, this should be interesting. I wonder if he meets Anatoly there." Laurel said.

"I would think so. It would help being that Anatoly is Bratva and Kovar is a rival of theirs." Sara said.

"Yeah, I guess it would." Laurel said.

"Ok, everyone let's take a break and then we will come back and see year five. Then after that we will show you the important stuff for the next eight years for all of you." Conner said.

"Oh, that should be pretty cool." Thea said.
