Chapter 1
(Dinah's PoV)
I came home to my apartment after work one day, and after getting my dinner started, I went to the door to get my mail.
There was a strange white envelope on top of the pile. It didn't have any stamps or return address, just my name. Dinah Lance. Handwritten across the front. Nothing else.
I opened the envelope and took out the single sheet of white paper inside. On it, the same person had written a date, time and place, along with the words; 'Be there. You won't regret it, we promise.' and signed, 'The Legends'.
I had no idea who these 'Legends' were, but seeing as Quentin had offhandedly mentioned them multiple times, I decided to check it out.
That was how I ended up in the largest clearing in a park just outside Central City limits one week later. I arrived at the place specified by the letter about ten minutes before the time. About five minutes after that, I heard a deafening noise in the sky above me. Looking up, I saw a strange spaceship-looking… thing that seemed like it had chosen my clearing as a landing spot. Without a second thought, I turned and dashed under the nearest tree, half hiding beneath it.
The flying thing landed, and moments after it appeared to have powered down, a hatch in the side lowered and a small group of people walked out, talking amongst themselves.
They had almost reached the edge of the clearing when two more people excited, a man and a blonde woman I felt like I should recognize but didn't. Judging by their body language and the way their voices carried, they were definitely arguing. They were so loud that I was even able to make out some of their conversation.
"Mick!" the woman exclaimed. Again, I felt like I should recognize her voice. "If you ever try to pull a stunt like that again, I will leave you stranded in a time period of my choosing. Without your gun." I wasn't quite sure what to make of most of her words. Or any of them, honestly.
"Okay, okay," the man (Mick, apparently) grumbled in defeat. "See ya later, Captain."
He went over to the rest of the group, who seemed to have been watching the exchange and were now laughing uproariously.
After they had left, I went back to watching 'Captain'. She was still standing in the same spot, apparently happy with herself. She turned and appeared to be heading back to the craft but stopped, looking directly at me. I had been spotted. I sighed and made to go back to my car. However, I had barely made it two steps when I heard; "Wait."
I reluctantly turned around to face 'Captain'. "I'm so sorry," I started, hurrying to explain myself. "I was told to meet someone here but-"
"I knew it!" She exclaimed, startling me. I looked up at the woman smiling at me from about ten yards away, her eyes sparkling with happiness.
It took me a moment to realize, but I suddenly remembered where I had heard that voice, seen that hair, looked into those beautiful blue eyes. When I did, I burst into tears, sinking to my knees.
Sara ran over and threw her arms around me, and for a while we simply wept tears of joy, reveling in the feeling of embracing the one neither of us had thought we'd ever see again.
