Episode 3 –
Oliver is sitting up in his office when he notices that Felicity is not here yet. He looks at the time and notices that she's 15 minutes late and Felicity isn't late often. He picks up his phone and taps on her picture to call her. She doesn't answer so he tries again but just goes to voicemail.
She's never more than five minutes from her phone, Oliver think, something is wrong. He quickly grabs his coat and is about to walk out when Felicity's sister walks in.
"Where is she? I knew she was going to cancel but not even showing up is just rude. Tell me where felicity is?" Rebecca demands. Oliver scrunches his eyebrows together wondering how she is related to Felicity.
"She called in sick." He immediately says.
"You're a terrible liar." She says after a second. "Just tell Felicity I need to talk to her?" Rebecca walks out of the office. Oliver picks his phone up and calls Dig. He answers on the second ring.
"What's up, man?" John asks as he answers his phone.
"Have you heard from Felicity? She didn't come into work or meet her sister." He asks and becoming more worried by the second.
"Felicity has a sister?" Diggle asks.
"I guess so I just met her last night at Felicity's."
"You were at Felicity's house last?"
"Diggle, that's not the point. Have you heard from her?" He asks impatiently.
"No but I'm sure she's fine. I'll try calling her." He suggests.
"Yeah I'll go to her apartment and see her." They hang up and Oliver heads to her house praying she's alright.
Meanwhile, Felicity slowly wakes up tied to a chair and looks around the nasty looking warehouse. She remembers Johnathan kidnapping her but doesn't know why.
"You're finally up. Good, because we're going to make a video for your friend Arrow." He takes out a camera while Felicity processes what he said.
"What? You think I know the Arrow?" She asks in disbelief.
"Not only do I think you know who it is but I think he's in love with you. I mean he's always saving you when you're in trouble, he killed for you in the queens office when you were kidnapped and he saved you from Slade Wilson who was determined to take the one thing the arrow loved most." He acts like he's so smart.
"How'd you know who Slade Wilson is? Or that he was going to take what the arrow loved most?" She asks.
Johnathan looks surprised for a second before laughing and shaking a finger at her. "Ah, you are a smart one well you'll be dead soon so I guess I can tell you." He picks up a knife and walks towards her. "Slade and I go way back and he told me about his vengeance on the man who tried to kill him. So then when the Arrow should up in Starling City Slade started getting prepared to attack. So, why don't you be a good girl and tell me who the Arrow is?" He asks gently running the knife along her arm.
Felicity shivers in fear, "I don't know!" She spats out at him. Jonathan doesn't care just continues to set up the video camera.
"I know you're lying, but no matter he will come eventually and I'll find out who's under that hood." He walks towards her with the knife and she starts to struggle on the chair.
Roy was in the Arrow cave when Oliver storms down looking left and right.
"What's going on, man?" Roy asks Oliver.
"You haven't seen Felicity, have you?" He asks while he brings his phone out calling her again but no luck.
"No why?"
"She's not at her apartment, she didn't show up for work today, she's not answering her phone and she didn't meet her sister for breakfast." Oliver says calling Felicity again.
"Felicity has a sister?" Roy asks.
"Yes I met her at Felicity's." He repeats the same answer he gave Dig.
"You were at Felicity's?" Oliver rolls his eyes and glares at Roy.
"She's missing, so why don't you suit up instead of asking me questions."
"Its broad daylight we can't go out there." Roy says. Oliver groans when his phone starts ringing. He grabs it lightning quick when he sees its Diggle.
"Hey Dig. You got anything?" He quickly asks, his concern rising by the minute.
"Man, its bad turn on the news channel." He walks over to Felicity's computer set up and turns to a local news website.
"This just came in from an unknown source." The blonde weather woman announced.
"Hello people of Starling City this message goes out to a certain green arrow vigilante. I believe I have something you want." The camera moves from the man to Felicity. "Say hello love?" Felicity looks down and Oliver notices blood dripping down her arm and his heart is lodged in his throat. "Come out come out where ever you are Arrow. I have no problem scattering this blondes body parts all over Starling City." Roy was already in his new suit waiting for Oliver's command. Oliver recognizes him as the red dart and he is furious that the police couldn't keep him locked away. "Meet me at warehouse nine in the Glades if you want this beauty in one piece."
"Let's go." Oliver quickly gets changed and Roy and he hop on their motorcycles.
"Hubby will be coming for you soon enough." Jonathan says as he unties her from the chair. He puts her in a choke hold using her body as a shield. She tries and wiggle her way out but he just grabs her injured arm and squeezes so more blood comes rushing out and a scream is release from her lips. Soon it dies down to whimpers and he lets go wiping his hand on her white pencil skirt.
Too bad she loved this skirt.
"What about all the cops that will show up?" She thinks out loud.
"I set up explosives at all entries but the roof so your darling hero can come and save you." He says in her ear making her shiver in disgust.
She grabs a hold of his arm, that's wrapped around her throat, and tugs slightly to release some of the ache beginning to form. There's a bang onto of the roof and then Oliver, in his outfit, slides through the skylight and onto the rafters above.
"Welcome Arrow, I see you got my message and blondie here was telling me you weren't coming." He looks down at Felicity who is cringing away from his breath on her neck.
"Let. The. Girl. Go." Oliver emphasizes.
"See gorgeous I told you he cared." He smiles like he won something. He takes out a gun and aims it towards her head. "Guns usually aren't my style but I'll make an exception tonight."
Felicity thinks back to that one time Diggle tried to train her and suddenly acts without thinking. She grabs the barrel of the gun and points it away from herself then stabs her four inch heel into his foot then breaks his nose with her elbow. Jonathan drops to the floor cradling his bloody nose and felicity throws the gun to the side away from Jonathan. She's breathing heavy as adrenaline pumps through her veins. She didn't even notice that Roy was right behind her and her attacker poised to shoot.
"Well we came to save you but looks like you've got it handled." Roy laughs and pulls her into a tight hug. He quietly whispers, "Oliver was really worried about you." She pulls back and smiles. Roy walks over and picks up Jonathan and says he's going to take him to the police.
"Actually we'll bring him to ARGUS because he won't escape Lian Yu." Oliver says. Roy leaves them alone to take Jonathan to Digg.
Felicity wraps her arms around herself trying to find comfort. She jumps when she feels a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"Are you ok?" Oliver asks.
"Yeah, you know just getting kidnapped again. I should really invest in a tracking device to put on me at all times so when I get kidnapped because it keeps happening. I was thinking I should get it in my arm though I really hate needles especially big ones and the needle would have to be huge because it would have to fit a tracking device. You know skip that, maybe in all my shoes… and I'm rambling again." She stops talking when she sees Oliver's smile.
"You were really good today the way you took him out. I'm impressed. You can really handle yourself." His smile grows and she stares into his amazing blue eyes.
Oliver's gaze dropped to her lips for a split second she thought she imagined it but then he started to lean closer and so did she.
"Miss. Smoak are you alright?" Oliver breaks away and quickly escapes as he hears cops coming towards them. Even though they're on good terms, he doesn't want to take any chances. As he's on the roof he sees Felicity walking out of the building with a blanket wrapped around her and all he can think is what would have happened if the cops didn't show up?
I was thinking about starting some one-shots so if you have any ideas you would like to see be sure to leave a review and I'll probably make a one-shot about it. Have a great day! XD
