《Specter of Oliver Queen》Chapter 18
Advertisement
Oliver was next seen setting in a chair at a table looking really beat up and his hands were zip tied in front of him. Kovar's men cut the zip tie so that he could eat. Kovar then came over to Oliver and was talking to him when Oliver used the knife to stab Kovar's hand and then he put the knife to his neck. The men put their guns down and Oliver picked them up and aimed one at Kovar and the other at his men.
"Way to take charge Ollie." Tommy said.
"And you really think that it is going to be that easy?" Diggle asked.
Oliver walks out in the hall with Kovar as his hostage and then he is surrounded by Kovar's men.
"Told you." Diggle said.
Oliver then pretty much challenged Kovar to a fight and Kovar beat him badly. Kovar then says, "I have an agreement with the Pakhan of the Bratva."
"That's a lie. They wouldn't work with you." Oliver said.
Right after he said that Gregor walked in and then Oliver knew what Kovar said was true. Gregor and his men took Oliver and they left. They were then down in a basement where the picture of Laurel fell free.
"Oh my God, I can't believe he still has that." Laurel said.
"What do you expect? He is madly in love with you." Thea said.
"Is this the woman that you are here for?" Gregor asked.
"No. She is what I left behind at home." Oliver said.
"Why are you here and not with her then?" Gregor asked.
"Because I am a monster, and they don't need that around them." Oliver said.
"Ok, so either you will obey me, or you will die. So, what's it going to be Mr. Queen?" Gregor asked as he pulled out his gun and aimed it at Oliver's head.
The next thing they knew there were gun shots coming from upstairs. The door opened and a woman in a hood shot an arrow at Gregor and got Oliver out of there.
Oliver woke up and found that he was at what he assumed was the woman's apartment. "What am I doing here? I need to get back to the Bratva." Oliver said.
"Why? Didn't they just try to kill you?" the woman asked.
"I have friends there." Oliver said.
"Yes. I am sure you do, but why go back to them? Why not go back home?" the woman asked.
"I can't. I am a monster. I can't take that back to my family and friends." Oliver said.

"I can teach you how to be two different people. It will enable you to be Oliver Queen again." The woman said.
She then pulled out his hood and held it out to him. "How did you get that?" Oliver asked.
"I snuck in and got it for you. It's not hard to sneak past Bratva. This belongs to my student, Yoa Fei." The woman said.
"How could you be Yoa Fei's teacher? You look around my age." Oliver said.
"I guess you could say it is a family secret." The woman said.
"How does she look so young when she is that old?" Thea asked.
"I have a feeling I know. I have heard of this woman before." Sara said.
"From where?" Laurel asked.
"If she is who I think she is, Ollie is going to get some of the training that I have." Sara said.
"Ok, so how am I supposed to separate who I am?" Oliver asked.
"You use the hood to be the monster and that will allow you to be Oliver Queen again." The woman said.
"Who is you name?" Oliver asked.
"My name is Talia." Talia said.
"Yep, I was right." Sara said.
Later Oliver and Talia were going after a man that had been selling girls Oliver was using a gun at this point and he shot most of the men who were guarding the men that he was after. Now all the was left was the man who sold the girls. Oliver got in his car and was about to shoot him but then he just decided to beat him with his gun. The returned back to Talia's apartment and then she gave Oliver the hood and told him that she could train him now.
Sometime later Oliver came out with a leather suit on that had the hood attacked. Talia showed him a file and it looked like some of the pills that Thea had been taking.
"So, this guy is the guy that supplies Starling City?" Oliver asked.
"Yes." Talia said.
"I killed the seller, but I left the supplier alive. I left my sister to still do drugs." Oliver said.
"You can end that now though Oliver." Talia said.
"Ok. Let's do this then. Do you really think that I am ready to go home?" Talia said.
"We will find out soon." Talia said.
Oliver went to the place where the drug sell was going down and he shot an arrow at one of the men letting them know that he was there. Everyone took cover, but Oliver took them out one by one until all that was left was the drug supplier.

"I can give you money." The man said.
"I don't care about your money." Oliver said as he fired three arrows into the man's heart.
When Oliver and Talia got back to her apartment Talia told him that he was ready to go home. Oliver went to say goodbye to Anatoly but found out that he was in the hospital. Oliver went to see him.
"What happened?" Oliver asked.
"Gregor beat me for recruiting you." Anatoly said.
"Well, I was going to leave but I will stay long enough for us to kill Gregor." Oliver said.
Oliver realized that an orderly had past the room a few times, so he decided to get Anatoly out of there. They ended up getting trapped in the basement so Anatoly called for a vote to see if they could get Gregor voted out as Pakhan.
Oliver went and broke into an office and found a laptop and found out that Gregor was getting money for the Bratva from Kovar but was also getting money for himself. When he showed this to the Bratva Anatoly won the vote but then Gregor and his loyal followers opened fire on them and there was a gun fight between the two sided.
Later Oliver, Anatoly and Victor were talking, and they decided that they needed to take out Gregor. They took all of the men out until it was only Gregor left. Oliver shot him with an arrow and then ripped it out. They then took Gregor back to their hideout and he told them that they were all going to die anyways and then Gregor died.
Anatoly was then voted in as the new Pakhan. Anatoly went to meet with Kovar to keep up with appearances. When he got there Malcolm Merlyn was there.
"What the hell is my dad doing there with this guy?" Tommy asked.
"I don't know. I guess we will find out." Laurel said.
"Your shipment is at the docks." Malcolm said.
"Thank you." Kovar said and then Malcolm left so that Anatoly and Kovar could have their meeting.
When Anatoly got back to the hideout, he told the men that he saw that Kovar was having some kind of weapon delivered to the docks tonight. They went to the docks and found out that it was a toxic gas. They loaded it all up so that they could steal it but Kovar and his men were able to take out enough of the Bratva that they were able to take the truck with the gas in it.
Oliver ended up finding out that Kovar was inviting most of the Government to the casino for its opening in order to kill them and take over the Government by torturing a man that worked for Kovar. Anatoly was not happy about this.
Oliver got a key card for the doors to the casino from Taiana's mother and got in and took out the security guards and let the Bratva in. They ended up being betrayed by Victor. Oliver was looking at the cameras and saw that Kovar was questioning Taiana's mother, so he went to save her. He didn't get there in time. He went to find Kovar to finally take him out. The Bratva were taken into the casino and the gas was released so that it looked like they were responsible for it. When Kovar left the room, Oliver took out his guards and then had they entered hand to hand combat it was close for a while but then Oliver got the best of Kovar and stabbed him in the chest with a knife, which killed him.
Later Oliver and Anatoly were getting tattoos. Oliver's was the tattoo of a Bratva Captain. They went to the bar and were talking about Oliver going home.
"I am leaving Anatoly. Why would you make me a Captain?" Oliver asked.
"Because wherever you go, you will have respect of the Bratva." Anatoly said.
"I want to change the Bratva. I might need your help." Anatoly said.
"You have forty-eight hours." Oliver said as they left the bar and Anatoly gave him his hood back.
The scene changed and then they saw what looked like a doctor doing surgery on someone and then they saw Merlyn talking to the doctor.
"He says thank you for saving his life." The doctor said.
"I would hate see the person who did this to him when he gets his hands on him." Merlyn said.
"What the hell is my dad up to? First, he gives this guy a poisonous gas and now he is saving him somehow. I always knew my dad could be a dick, but it looks like he is worse than that." Tommy said.
"I don't know. I guess we will find out soon enough." Sara said as the video started up again.

The Friendly Neighborhood Nightmare Caller
The year is 21XX, humanity still seems to love killing each other over some pointless war or another. VR Dive technology is a thing and has more uses than just fun and games.For the past year, humanity has temporarily put aside its differences to fight a new threat, the Fiends, an enemy of unknown origins. The Fiends seem to have an unlimited reserve of forces, yet they seem to primarily attack small human settlements, with the occasional siege on a city with a vast horde.Humanity has resorted to creating Saviors, ex-humans who have extraordinary powers and who's forms generally resemble some form of human-monster hybrid. They range from ordinary superhumans and slime people to harpies and golems, as well as, from plant people and zombies to kitsunes and arachne.While they are called Saviors, their official title is the Defenders of Humanity and they serve the Human Collective Government Defense Force.Now, what happens when one of the biggest unknowns of the Fiends' forces, the Fiendish Maidens, joins the HCGDF?This story follows Savior Squad 108-F, a squad of misfits who joined the Defense Force for a variety of reasons, as they live their lives and go on missions for the "greater good" of humanity. During their adventures, they meet one of the most elusive Fiends in existence: the Nightmare Caller Eve, one of the Fiendish Maidens. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This story was created using the world of a pair of "Create Your Own Adventures", called Defenders of Humanity and Ravagers of Humanity. There are four of us working together to write this story, so you may notice differences in writing styles, though we will try to make it seem like one style. All credit for any pictures we use, go to their artists. We plan to update as we complete chapters, however fast that happens to be. Sorry for any inconsistencies.

While staying overnight at his best friend's place, he unknowingly entered Ishbula-na's residence at the seventh ring of the abyss. Now this big fat floating eye is calling him his son and his best friend is teaching him how to hunt many strange lifeforms in this strange void, while he tries to maintain his regular life at the same time. AN (Posted Nov. 4th): on about 3 weeks from now I have two exams which will define where I am in a year after, so updates will come at a slower pace until the 26th. I will still try to get things out, but there won't be as many chapters/week as there have been so far.

8 153I Only Want One
Natalie was raised in a world where there is nothing more sacred than the mate bond. She lived with that belief all of her life, but when one of her mates destroys her trust and their bond, she can't do anything about it because rejecting him would reject his twin as well.But she only wants one.---------------------------------------------------"If you don't like it, reject me. I can think of someone who would be happy to be your choice mate." I spit at him and he stops pacing to face me. "I don't want to reject you, Natalie. I want you. As our mate and our Luna. We're twins. We're a packaged fucking deal." He snarls and I shake my head, crossing my arms over my chest and squaring my shoulders. "I don't care." I say. "I only want one."
8 182Stella and the Boxer
The Wattys 2014 "Undiscovered Gem" Stella Henry is afraid of a lot of things. As a child, her simple, comfortable home life did not prepare her for the sort of people whom she would meet as a younger teenager. Now eighteen and a freshman at Clemson University, Stella meets Charlie, who, like her, has long been keeping others at bay. Though his disposition is kind and gentle, Charlie is a boxer, and his world only reminds Stella of elements of her past she would like to forget. When both realize that they have a safe place in one another, they start to overcome their fear of other people, and of letting them get close enough to matter.In many ways, this is a story about allowing people to matter to our lives, and about meaning something to them, in turn. At some point in your day, in your routine, in your life, you will matter to someone. That is a special kind of power, do be careful with it. "We love people not so much for the good they've done us, as for the good we've done them." Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace
