Nathan Queen aka the ghost rider
Chapter 1: Deathstroke
Oliver, my brother, walks over to me. "Nate, have you seen Speedy," he asks.
"No, I don't," I say. I turn to look directly at my brother. "You think she's alright?"
"Yeah, I'm sure it's nothing," Oliver says. He pulls out his phone. "Speedy, it's Ollie. I'm at the debate, where I thought out would be. Listen, I know that you're upset about Roy, but Mom needs all three of us here, so please just call me back," Ollie says over the phone.
"You do not look happy. Is everything all right?" Sebastian Blood, my mother's opponent in her run for mayor, says.
"Yes, my sister's just a little late," Ollie says.
"I'm afraid that's my fault. S.C.P.D. insisted that I arrive with a motorcade. We tied up traffic all over the city. I'm sure Thea's probably just fallen victim to gridlock," Sebastian says.
"Well, I should probably try her again," Ollie says. He then offers his hand. "Good luck tonight Sebastian," he says.
"Thank you, sir," Sebastian says, taking Ollie's hand. Oliver and me then leave.
A few moments later I hear my mother speak. "Sebastian Blood is not the man you think he is. He's not going to revive the social services. He's going to bankrupt it with unfunded mandates," Moira Queen, my mother who I running for mayor, says.
"Mrs. Queen's problem with my proposal is that they will be paid for by the one percent. It's time the wealthiest people stop avoiding their responsibility," Sebastian says, then the two of them start to talk over each other.
"All right, that's time," the moderator says, cutting the two off. "And I will remind the candidates to please refrain from interrupting. Now we have the next we have the next in our series of video questions submitted by Starling city voters. This one comes from… 'Thea Queen'?" the moderator says, before the screen starts cackling. "Okay, there must be some mistake," he says.
The screen changes to show Thea in some abandoned building, whimpering. Oliver stands up, and I ball my fists. "Help, help. Somebody help me, please," Thea begs. "He's…," Thea says, before being cut off by a hand covering her mouth. Everyone starts squealing.
"Oh, my god," Moira whispers. Then writing appears on the screen, "How much is Thea Queen's life worth to you?"
Scene change.
"Well the video referenced a demand but no random, which means this might not be about money," Lieutenant Pike says.
"We're gonna get her back, Moira, Nate. I promise you. Thea's coming home," Lance says.
"Can you think of anyone who might wanna get to you through Thea?" Lieutenant Pike says.
Moira shakes her head. "No one. Except for the families of the 503 people that died last year," she says.
"This isn't about the quake," Ollie says. I raise an eyebrow.
"How can you be so sure?" Lance asks, saying the same question I'm thinking.
"You just need to find the man in the mask," Ollie says.
"We're working on it," Lieutenant Pike says. "We're running down every lead."
"What leads?" Ollie says.
"Oh, god, oh, god, how could I have let this happen?" Moira says, shuddering.
"It wasn't your fault mom," I say, gaining my mom's attention. I put a hand on her shoulder. "You couldn't have seen this coming, no one could. What matters now is getting Thea home," I say. I then pull her into a hug.
"Excuse me for a minute," Ollie says.
Scene change.
We walk into the police precinct. "Mr. Lance, did he tell you where Thea is?" Ollie asks.
"Ms. Queen, thank you for coming," Lieutenant Pike says.
"This doesn't make any sense. Slade Wilson is a friend," Moira says.
"And he's been in Costa Rica for the past twelve hours. He can provide flight manifest, phone records, even some videos… so he couldn't have taken your daughter," Lieutenant Pike says.
"Then why'd you arrest him?" I ask.
"We didn't. He was apprehended by the vigilante…," Lieutenant Pike says. He then turns to Lance before continuing. "Who then contacted officer Lance."
"Lieutenant, I can explain-," Lance says.
"No, I get the pretty clear picture," Lieutenant Pike says, interrupting Lance. "You are a special kind of stupid. The whole reason you're wearing this uniform instead of a detective's shield is because you were working with the vigilante."
"A young girl is missing-," Lance says, interrupting Pike.
"Now you arrest someone on his say so?" Pike says, interrupting Lance. "You'll be lucky if the next uniform I put you in isn't prison gray."
Time skip.
After Pike let Slade go. "Ollie, we need to talk," I say.
"We are," he replies.
"In private, it's important," I say.
"How about we go back to the mansion," Ollie says.
"Then let's go," I say.
Scene change.
I check to make sure no one is here. "Alright, what aren't you telling me, mom, the cop," I say. "I know you know something, and you're not telling anyone. I've gotten good at telling when you or mom lie to me. So, what do you know about Thea's kidnapping?" I ask.
"I don't know what you're talking about," Oliver says.
"Really, because you said that it wasn't about the undertaking, like you knew who took her, you also seemed sure that Wilson kidnapped Thea, and you snuck into the interrogation room they were keeping him in," I list, angrily. "Something you wanna tell me!?"
"Alright, let's calm down," Ollie says.
"No. I might be able to deal with the secrets and lies ever since you've come back from that island, but this is my twin sister! If you know something about her disappearance, tell me know!" I say, angrily. I sigh. "Please," I say, in a calmer tone.
"I really don't know anything," Oliver says. I then start to cry. Oliver pulls me into a hug.
"I'm sorry, Ollie. I'm just scared," I say. "I don't know what I'll do if he… he…," I say, but my voice cracks. "If I lose Thea forever."
"Nate, we're going to get her back, I promise," Ollie says.
"Thanks, I really needed that," I say. We break the hug.
"Any time, Nate," Ollie says.
"We better make sure mom's alright," I say. We walk down to the dining room to find with cops inside.
"Could you give us a minute, please," Oliver says to the cops. They walk off. I see mom holding a photo frame, without a doubt a picture of Thea.
"You remember how she loved to color? Her father would buy her boxes of crayons by the truckload. She could never get enough. She'd draw on the walls. And I could never get angry because it was just so adorable," Moira says. Oliver and me walks closer while she's talking.
"You should try and get some sleep," Ollie says. Me and him start to walk off.
"Is my baby still alive?" Moira asks softly.
We turn around. "What?" I ask.
"Is my baby still alive?" Moira repeats.
Oliver walks closer. "Yes," he says.
"I woke up every day for five years, the mother who lost her son, I—I can't…," Moira says, before cutting off. She turns to look at both me and Oliver. "I can't endure it again," she says. "And now both of you hate me. And you have every justification."
"Now is not the time," Oliver says.
"Yes, it is," Moira says. "It is exactly the time. I've told you both that these secrets were to keep our family safe. To keep us all together. But that was the biggest lie of all. And I've told it to both of you, Thea… to myself. Because I was too weak… to face any kind of truth," Moira says.
"What's happening now isn't your fault," Oliver says.
Moira turns around and places the photo frame on the table. She takes a few steps forward before saying, "From the moment your children are born… you worry what the world might do to them. But you never stop to think what you might do to them. That we could be our own worst enemy."
Me and Oliver walk beside her and take a hand each.
Scene change.
Mom and me walk over to Oliver, who is talking with his friends, John Diggle and Felicity Smoak. "Ollie," I say, as me and my mom walk closer. Oliver walks with us as we walk into the interrogation room were Thea is.
"Oh, thank god," Oliver says.
"Oh, my baby," Moira says.
"Oh, thank goodness," I say. We all run in and hug her. We see Thea is crying and pull away. "What's wrong?"
"They've been lying to us," Thea says. "Mom and Ollie have been lying to us," she says.
"Thea, what are you talking about," Oliver says.
"He told me. Mr. Wilson... he told me your secret," Thea says. Oliver steps back. "How you've been lying to me for years. To my brother too. How could you not tell me that Malcom Merlyn was my father?" Thea asks. Both Oliver and my mom's faces told me that she was telling the truth. She turns to look directly at Oliver "I believed in you." Thea starts to walk out.
"We were trying to keep you both safe," Oliver says, Thea stops, and my eyes widen in realization.
"Do you have any idea who you sound like? You sound like her," Thea says.
"And when I thought you couldn't get any lower," I say, to Moira. I start to walk out.
"Nathaniel," Moira says.
"No," I say, cutting her off. "Don't. I need some air," I say, walking out.
If you're wondering, Nate will not become Ghost Rider until 1 or 2 more chapters. Please review and give me any suggestions. Until next time, Ant-boy out.
