Chapter 1

I hate the rain was all he could think perched on the ledge of a seven storey building surely they must have criminals in the tropics he sighed absent mindedly playing with the string of his bow, and i have to meet with that new CEOs' house warming party tomorrow perfect why of all place did Fossil Enterprises have to relocate to Metropolis.

"Green Arrow, come in" came Watchtower's voice over the com set

"What's up Watchtower" he said snapping out of his daydream

"I need you to check out what's going on in Cookie's Wynd it's an alley about three blocks over there's a fight going on there"

"Fascinating Watchtower but i think the police can handle one dumb barfight" he sighed he was sick of responding to calls which turned out to be some drunks going at it.

"Not when they don't know about it" Watchtower countered "Someone's hacked into their system stopping any calls from that area getting to them and they've blocked the CCTV so i've no idea what's going on" she said the annoyance clear in her voice.

"Can't you gain access" he said already standing up and running to the location

"no they're blocking me" she growled followed by what he thought were a slew of swear words which he couldn't help but laugh at.

A few minutes later he was standing on top of the building watching the fight in progress in confusion a young woman who was in her early twenties who was wearing a deep blue tight fitting corset dress reaching half way down her thighs with black stripes down the sides and on her chest also with black knee high boots black gloves greeup to her elbows and a black mask was kicking the crap out of a middle aged man who was trying to defend himself to get awa from her but she was having none of it.

Without hesitatin he notched an arrow and fired at the mystery woman which landed a mere centimeter awat from her neck causing her to spin round to him fury burning in her eyes as a smirk settled on his.

"i'm all for girl power but don't you think this is rediculous" he said nodding his head in the direction of the man now lying unconscious on the ground.

"listen green bean this has nothing to do with you so back off" her voice disguised by a voice distorter just like his.

"when innocent men are attacked i make it my business " he said taking in the sais she had strapped to her boots and the two short single edged swords she had strapped to her waste if she could fight like that with unarmed he didn't want to give her the chance to use those.

"Innocent" she laughed "ou have no idea" she said her deep blue eyes feeling like they were boring into his soul as she took a few steps forward. Her remark caught him off guard. "why don't you just leave and i won't hold your stupidity against you."

"Or how about i leave" came the voice of the man who he had believed to be unconscious now on his feet came from behind her causing him to look up. The mystery woman reached for one of her sais but before she could reach it a ball of green light slammed into her chest knocking her back into the alley wall a yell of pain escaping her lips as she made contact with the wall. "thanks for the help" the man said looking at him before turning and fleeing the alley but his attention wasn't on him anymore the woman was still ling in a slump next to the wall. Using his grappling hook to descent the building he rushed to her side and tried to shake her awake he was about to call for watchtower to get Emil when she groaned opening her eyes and tring to get to her feet.

"You should stay down" he said trying to grab her arm but she just knocked his arm away

"where is he?" she asked once on her feet

"he's gone" he was about to ask what was going on when her fist made contact with his jaw forcing him back a few steps.

"you moron" she yelled moving towards him "this is your fault, he only got away because you interfered" the voice distorter doing nothing to hide her rage.

"i'm not the one trying to kill a man " he yelled back closing the distance between them

"i wasn't trying to kill that man i was trying to capture a serial killer who's already killed two prostitutes in Metropolis and more than ten before he came here" she jelled silencing him " and i swear to god if he hurts anyone else because he got away" he won't be the only one i hold responsible" she shouted shoving her hands into his chest knocking him back before grabbing something out of a hidden pocket in her dress and as she smashed it on the ground a puff of blue smoke appeared and when it cleared she was gone leaving him speechless

"Arrow, what's going on?" came Watchtower's voice in his ear the hacker is gone

"Honestly Watchtower i have no idea" he said still starring at the space the woman had a few seconds inhabited" i haven't got a clue"
