Chapter 314 - Chapter 21: Scoping out potential

Nathan was working out in the Verdant Lair, doing reps of pull-ups and pushups hanging off the gear over the Salmon ladder, before leaping off and taking out an arm on the training dummy with an elbow.

The Glades

Nighttime

A FEMA truck drove through the remains of the Glades. Even though Nathan and his team had stopped the Undertaking, there had been enough damage done to the Glades and the Glades Memorial during the evacuation that FEMA decided to send help. It was soon joined by a pair of bikers on dirt bikes who began harassing the truck.

"Faster!" the man in the passenger seat told the driver.

"Foot's on the floor, man." The driver shot back. "Call it in."

"This is FEMA truck 52. We're being pursued by two armed bikers. We're heading south on Third Street, requesting immediate assistance."

A short distance away, Roy sat in a mustang, a police scanner sitting between the seats. He listened to the message, then popped the clutch and took off, racing to help.

In the truck, the two bikers pulled up alongside the cab. "Come on, get us out of here." The passenger urged his partner. "Get us out of here!"

"I'm trying!" he replied.

Ahead of the truck, Roy drove straight at them with his lights off. Seeing the situation, he pulled to the left and gunned his engine. At the last moment he turned his lights on, and the biker swerved to avoid being hit by him. He did not, however, avoided plowing in to the back of a parked car, the impact of which sent him skidding across the tops of the parked cars and to the ground hard. Roy grinned in victory.

In the truck, the passenger looked back in amazement. "Who the hell was that?" he wondered.

The other biker peeled off and turned around, heading towards Roy. Roy spun the mustang around and gunned it, heading towards the biker. It looked to be a repeat, until the biker pulled out a Mac-10 and opened fire, spraying the hood of the car with bullets. The sparks it kicked up momentarily blinded Roy, and when his vision cleared it was too late to avoid the large pile of debris on the road. The mustang hit the debris and flipped over completely, slamming down to the ground and skidding on blown tires and a busted frame for several feet.

Meanwhile, the men in the FEMA truck thought they had gotten away- until the two men spotted a figure in the road up ahead. As they got closer, they saw she was an Asian woman with white hair, twirling a pair of karambit knives.

China White threw the knives at the truck. They smashed through the windshield and hit both men in the neck, killing them. As the dead drivers foot fell off the gas, the truck slowly came to a stop. A moment later, the second biker pulled up next to her and got off of his bike.

"Take the truck. Leave nothing behind." She told him. He nodded and jumped into the cab as she climbed onto the bike.

A short distance away, three cop cars surrounded the totaled Mustang as Roy crawled out of it. They approached him with guns drawn.

"Just so you know, the real bad guys are getting away!" he spat at them angrily as he collapsed against the side of the wrecked vehicle.

Verdant

A little While Later

The night was just getting started. Lyla stood watching the crowd of writhing patrons as Nathan, now dressed in a suit, came up to her.

"We're going to need more sparring dummies." He told his girlfriend with a smile.

"I'll start ordering them in bulk." Lyla replied.

"I really need something different in this city." Nathan admitted. "Lately killing the people on the list has gotten tedious. I need a new problem to tackle."

"This is Starling City. You never have to look far to find someone engaged in illegal activity." Lyla noted.

"Hey!" Thea said happily, running up to the pair. "I didn't see you come in."

"I had a secret entrance installed when I ran the club." Nathan said, actually telling the truth. She gave him a look and he smiled. "Kidding." He lied, playing it up as a joke.

Thea thought about pressing, but then her phone rang. "Hello?" she said, moving behind the two to shield herself from some of the sound as she held the phone tightly to her ear. "Yes, yeah, this is Thea Queen." She listened, and her expression turned from puzzlement to concern to annoyed anger. "Of course that's where he is."

Police Station

Roy was sitting cuffed in the interview room. He stared ahead stoically as Laurel circled around behind him.

"Who is he, Roy?" she asked.

"I already told you, I don't know." Roy replied impassively.

"So you just happen to have one of his ninja stars." She said, tossing down the throwing star that Roy had kept in his pocket ever since he had been saved. He had painted it red, though- a fact he used against his interrogator.

"I hear he likes black ones." He noted.

"Do you think this is funny?" Laurel demanded. "Because I can charge you with obstruction right now!" Laurel was being like this because she was still hurting over Tommy's death, and going after Prometheus was her way of venting.

Roy said nothing, so she decided to take another approach. She sat down across from him. "Look I used to feel the same way as you." She admitted. "They has this way of seducing you."

"Making you feel like he's some kind of guardian angel. But he's not. All he causes chaos and death. And you trying to emulate him just makes the situation worse."

"Half the city almost fell into a hole." Roy noted. "Look, some of us are just trying to make it better."

Laurel scoffed. "Who, like you and Prometheus?"

"Look, there—" he paused, then leaned forward. "There are others. Others out there who are willing to do what's right. I've seen them. I've seen her." He told her.

"I'm not interested in anyone else." Laurel said. "Just him."

A short time later, Roy finally exited the room to find Thea and Nathan waiting for him.

"What happened?" Thea asked, and then took in his appearance. "Are you hurt?"

"Fender bender." Roy said dismissively.

"He totaled his car playing Prometheus junior." Laurel said.

"At least it wasn't my car." Roy shot back.

"Don't say anything!" Thea said in annoyance. "I already called you an attorney."

"That won't be necessary, we're not pressing charges." Laurel told them. "So long as he gives up looking for trouble."

Thea rolled her eyes. "Might as well tell him to give up breathing."

"I'll talk to him." Nathan told Laurel quietly.

"Ask him if he knows anything about Prometheus." Laurel said, watching as Roy and Thea had a quiet argument. "Roy has obviously forged some sort of connection to him. Maybe it goes both ways."

"Doesn't sound like the Vigilantes to have a groupie." Nathan said.

"That's just it- we don't know anything about the Vigilantes." Laurel said. "Except for every time that he shows up, bodies start dropping. It has to stop, Nate. He has to be stopped." Laurel walked away, leaving a very annoyed Nathan behind.

Nathan looked at Roy with narrowed eyes.

"Thea." He called out as he walked towards the pair. His eyes were fixed on Roy. "Can you ask Ms. Lyla to bring the car around, please?"

Thea sighed, and then put a hand on Roy's shoulder. "I'll always think of you fondly." She told him wryly, and then moved off to find Lyla leaving Roy and Nathan alone.

"I used to be a lot like you, Roy." Nathan started.

Roy scoffed. "I doubt that. I spend more time in the back of cop cars than limos, so…" he moved to walk past him, but was stopped suddenly as Nathan grabbed his injured arm in an iron grip.

"The world doesn't work anymore." Nathan began as Roy gasped in pain. "It broke a long time ago, but from your perspective, it was like you were the only one who noticed. That makes you angry." Nathan let go. "And you're afraid that that anger is going to burn you up inside if you have to live in the world one second longer knowing that you could do something to fix it." He stared at Roy hard. "That anger's going to put you in the hospital, kid. Or get you killed."

"Well, I'll take killed." Roy said. "It's better to be dead than in a hospital these days, right?"

Nathan looked at him in confusion. "What do you mean?"

"Been to the Glades Memorial, lately?"

Nathan blinked. "No, I haven't."

"It was damaged during the evacuation, so the government has been sending medicine. The medicine that been sent the hospital is being hijacked. So, if they don't re-supply soon, they'll be forced to close." Roy said.

"By who?" Nathan demanded.

"I don't know!" Roy exclaimed angrily. "The doctors and nurses are already bailing on the place. And the cops?" he asked sarcastically. "The cops rarely venture that deep into the Glades, so I guess that leaves only me! What's it take to make you angry?" he asked Nathan hotly. When he didn't reply, he scoffed and walked off, leaving Nathan to think.

Flashback

Nathan was staring at his hands, hands he had just used to bash another man's skull in. He looked past his hand to the body. He looked up at his companions, who looked back worriedly, then turned away and sat down heavily.

"Others will come." Shado said. "They won't be happy we killed their men."

"All the more reason to figure out why they're here." Slade said, kneeling down to begin rifling through the men's pockets. He pulled a folded up piece of paper out of the first one's shirt and opened it up. "It's a map. Of the island chain, containing Lian Yu. This is similar to the recon shots that A.S.I.S. gave me before I came here to rescue your father." He said. "Whatever they're looking for, it must be here, on this island."

He looked up at Nathan sadly, who was rubbing his bloodied hands together slowly. "I've seen men in war with that look in their eyes."

"What look?" Shado asked.

"The one that says he's splitting into someone else." He explained. "Before, he could distance himself from his kills. Even Fyers, while it was still personal for him, was a cold and calculated kill. This one though, was a passionate and brutal slaughter. Now he see's someone he doesn't even recognize in his own reflection. If someone doesn't talk to him, it'll tear him apart."

Shado looked at him, then back at Nathan. She walked over to him as Slade watched sadly. Shado moved in front of him and leaned over, taking his hands in hers "Come on. Let's get away from this place." She told him, giving him a reassuring smile.

Flashback End

Nathan and Lyla walked through the halls, taking in the signs of desperation all around them.

"Yeah, whoever's stealing from here, they won't be for much longer." Nathan vowed. The two ducked into a stairwell and headed down to the ground floor. Out front Nathan saw a man talking to both protesters and the media.

"This city is failing on all accounts." He was saying.

Nathan looked on curiously. "Who's that in the spotlight?"

"Sebastian Blood, the local alderman that I told you about." Lyla said. "Not too shy about sharing his opinions."

"Which are?"

"Which are that the Glades have been abandoned. And that nobody cares about these people." Lyla replied.

"He hasn't met me." Nathan said, opening the door and stepping outside.

"We cannot stand by while the doctors on the other side of those doors are working with the bare minimum of resources because the police department already sees us as a lost cause." Blood was saying. "Meanwhile, thieves are seeking to make a quick buck off the misery of the Glades." He paused as he finally spotted Nathan. "Nathan Queen, isn't it?" he asked, drawing attention to him.

"Alderman." Nathan said in reply.

"What brings you to Glades Memorial, Mr. Queen? I assume someone of your means can afford the best medical treatment money can buy." Blood said sarcastically. "And I can assure you, you're not going to find that here."

"That is where you are wrong." Nathan said. "The people of the Glades have suffered too much not to have access to basic medical services."

"Well, that's very compassionate of you to say." Blood replied. "Although I wonder where your family's concern for its fellow citizens was when they ordered the construction of the earthquake machine that could have potentially killed 15,000 people."

He stopped, knowing that he couldn't leave it there. He picked up a stray megaphone on the ground and an airhorn. He placed the airhorn close to the mouthpiece on the megaphone and pressed, causing an extremely loud horn noise to sound, making everyone but him and Lyla cover their ears in pain.

"Listen up!" Nathan said through the megaphone, amplifying his already powerful voice, "The Glades used to be the jewel of this city. That was until many of the big business's and other scumbags decided to fuck the Glades for all they were worth and give none of it back. When I came back from my 5 hellish years on that Island, I saw the damage that had been done to the Glades, and swore I would do what I could to help you people. Now that I'm CEO of Queen Consolidated, together with Bertinelli Construction, we are tearing down the abominations that would have given OSHA a heart attack and replacing them with livable homes for the residents who live here."

"Now, I feel for the people here today that depend on the medicine that Glades Memorial gives out. To steal medicine from a hospital that people desperately need, is a crime against humanity. But hope is not lost. For we now live in a city where criminals tend to not last too long, leaving this world with an arrow in their chest or a sword through their back. I have no doubt that Prometheus and Huntress have heard your plight, and are doing everything they can to bring down whoever is committing these vile crimes against the people of the Glades. In the meantime, Queen Consolidated vows here and now to lend it's support to Glades Memorial until it can get back on it's feet."

Nathan put the megaphone down, and turned to Blood. "I suggest next time, Mr. Blood, you use a lot less of this," He made a motion with is hands to show talking before cupping both ears, "and a lot more of this." Nathan and Lyla walked back to his limo and drove off leaving a silent and stunned crowd behind.

Queen Consolidated

CEO Office

Nathan was feeling pretty good about himself right now. While he had had to do a lot of arguing with Isabel, he did eventually get her on board with his plan to help Glades Memorial. Now that he had some downtime, he was figuring out how the hijackers were getting a line on the goods earmarked for Glades Memorial.

He had a second computer up, running algorithms to try to figure out where this hacker, Skyequake, is. He needed to determine whether this person was friend or foe.

His thoughts were interrupted when Natalie brought him some documents he needed to sign. As he made to start signing, his phone went off. Seeing who it is, he answered with a bit of bite, "What do you want now, Waller?"

Flashback

Shado helped Nathan wash the blood off of his hands in the river.

"You saved my life." She told him.

He smiled humorlessly. "That's what I keep telling myself. That I killed them because they were going to kill you." He looked at her, pain in his eyes. "But I can't help but think…what if that's not the reason? I just feel like this island is…ripping away everything good about me, twisting me into something dark and evil."

Shado dipped her hand into the river, cupping her hand. She raised it up and wiped the blood off of his face. "No island, no place, can turn you into something you're not." She gently and lovingly told him.

"So, what? I've always been a monster?" he asked in despair.

"Everyone has a demon inside of them." She replied, her words displaying wisdom beyond her years and love as her hand caressed his face. "The 'dao de jing' recognizes the yin and the yang. Opposing forces inside all of us. The darkness. And the light. The killer… and the hero."

She pulled him down for a gentle kiss.

Flashback Lemon

After breaking their kiss, Shado pulled her top off and threw it onto the sand. Nathan took his black long sleeve shirt off and threw his shirt to the sand and wrapped his arm around her waist, and another around her back, pulling her in closer and deepening their kisses.

They continued to kiss each other while Shado's left hand slowly traveled south, running along his six-pack abs, stopping at his pants as she began to undo his belt and pants. Nathan's hands slid down her back and groped her sexy tight ass before his hands reached down and slipped her pants and panties down. They both pulled away for a little bit and threw the rest of their cloths onto the sand. They embraced each other with renewed fervor now both completely naked.

Shado continued to kiss Nathan while her hand slid back down to Nathan's cock and slowly began stroking it. Nathan kept kissing Shado while one hand slipped down to her nether region. He rubbed her pussy, playing with it for a few moments before inserting two of his fingers into her pussy.

"Oh yes, Nate," Shado said as she broke their kissing and Nathan moved to sucking on her breasts, "Just like that."

After a few minutes of finger-fucking her, he introduced a third finger into her pussy. Shado was moaning from the pleasure she was receiving at the hands of her lover.

Nathan stopped sucking Shado's breasts and claimed her lips again in a French kiss easily dominating her tongue with his own.

She wasn't able to hold too long and screamed into his mouth when she was hit by an orgasm. He took his finger out her dripping pussy, drenched in her pussy juices and brought it to his mouth, savoring her taste.

"Mm, you're delicious," He whispered, his voice filled with lust for her. He gripped Shado by her ass and held her up in the air, her pussy lined up with his cock. He stared into her eyes, as if silently asking for permission.

"Do it," Shado whispered in his ear. Nathan nodded and plunged his cock right into Chinese woman, getting a load moan from her. He stood perfectly still, letting her adjust to his size. Once she had, she nodded to him and he began to pound away into her.

Shado moaned loudly as Nathan held her in the air by her sexy tight ass, his big cock thrusting in and out of her tight pussy. "Oh Shado, you're so tight," Nathan groaned as Shado wrapped her legs around his waist, trying to bring him further into her.

Within minutes, Shado was hit with another mind-numbing orgasm, her pussy clamping down tightly on her lovers rod as she came. Once her orgasm finished, Nathan carried her over to a smooth flat rock and lay his back on it, putting her in the cowgirl position.

Shado began to bounce up and down on his cock as he placed his hand on her waist enticing her further. "So big," She moaned as every time she bounced down, he hit her G-spot. Nathan began to thrust his hips upwards into her, driving his cock deeper inside of her.

After several minutes of this and feeling himself getting closer, Nathan sat up and held Shado's body tight against him as he pounded into her, "Shado, I'm close."

"Inside. I want it inside." Shado moaned into his ear, feeling her own orgasm coming. After another minute, Shado was finally sent over the edge as her pussy tightened around Nathan's dick as she came, causing Nathan to finally let loose as he blew his load inside Shado's womb.

Flashback Lemon End

Shado panted as she laid her head on Nathan's shoulder. Nathan panted as well, running his hand through her hair. "I love you, Shado."

Shado pulled her head off of her lover's shoulder and looked him in the eye, said eyes shining with love. "Truly?"

"Yes", Nathan breathed, "I love everything about you. I love your kindness, your wisdom, your gentle soul, and how you're a total badass with a bow and arrow. I love everything about you. You're the first woman I have ever loved, Shado Gulong, and I know we are stuck on this island, but I want you to know that I love you."

Shado's response was a tender and loving kiss on his lips. "I'm glad Nathan. It makes me so happy to know you feel the same way about me as I do about you."

They rested their foreheads against each other, their eyes closed with smiles on their lips as the two basked in their love for each other.

Nighttime

"What did you find, Nate?" Helena said as she came downstairs.

"FEMA is shipping 100,000 units of medical grade opiates to Glades Memorial." He said.

"When?" Helena asked.

"Truck is scheduled to leave the FEMA depot in 20 minutes."

"Not if this motorcycle gang has anything to say about it." Lyla said.

"Bad luck for them." Nathan replied. "I have something to say about it."

Fema Facility

20 minutes later

The drugs were being loaded onto the trucks, but in a departure from previous heists, the motorcycle riders stormed the facility. They opened fire, killing everyone they saw before coming to a stop in front of a pair of trucks. They got off and quickly reloaded, advancing on a hapless driver.

"No, no, no, please, please, don't shoot."

"Down!" Of course, then the Triad riders were shot in the head with arrows and Prometheus dropped down out of nowhere.

"Make your delivery!" he ordered the driver, who nodded and jumped into his tuck. Before he could get all the way in, though, a knife pierced his neck, killing him.

"Prometheus." Prometheus looked up to see China White standing there. "I'm glad you made it. It gives me the opportunity to pay you back in full for your past interference in my business."

"Unlikely." He drew and fired, but another figure dropped down between the two trucks, then blocked the arrows with a set of steel claws set into brass knuckles on his hands.

"I don't think my friend agrees with you." China White said. "Our new partnership was easily cemented. See, I was eager to see you dead, and he was eager to kill you."

"You and I are going to have a chat after this is over Chien." Nathan drew several more arrows and fired them, one after the other, but Bronze Tiger blocked each and every one.

"No kill shots?" he asked scathingly even as China White her way to a truck. "I was promised a fight. I hope you haven't lost your nerve."

"I have something far worse in mind than killing you." Prometheus stated.

Chien made to get away with the truck but then Helena got in her way as they began to fight.

Bronze Tiger rushed him, swinging his claws in powerful arcs that the vigilante deflected with his bow. Nathan directed them between the side of the building and several steam pipes the limit his motion, but it also constrained the archer. Tiger knocked his bow away and the two locked arms, with the Tiger trying to push the claws into Prometheus chest. It didn't work though, as his shoulder was pierced by a bolt from Helena, who had already defeated Chien, who had escaped.

Nathan pushed him away after breaking his wrist, and knocking the distracted assassin off balance. Nathan pulled his bow back out and hit Bronze Tiger in the shoulder with a Taser Arrow. The Taser part immediately activated when it hit Ben, causing him to groan in pain before he fell unconscious.

It was then the police had arrived on the scene and deployed around the area.

"Starling City police!" Pike called out. "You're surrounded." Nathan and Helena looked over at the gathering of police- and saw Laurel right there with them. "Put down your weapons or we will open fire."

Prometheus withdrew a smoke bomb and threw it down, obscuring himself and Huntress. Then he withdrew a grappling arrow and fired it up, launching himself and his girlfriend into the gantry above as officers fired into the smoke.

"Cease fire! Cease fire!" Pike yelled. "Find him, he couldn't have gotten far."

Up above, Nathan and Helena looked down at the cops, watching as they carried Ben Turner away.

Verdant

Later

Upstairs in the club, Roy was sweeping the floor after closing. He looked up as Thea walked over.

"Great crowd tonight." He said.

She stared at him with arms crossed. "Now that we're closed, are you going to be starting your second shift?" she asked sarcastically. "Suicide by Chinese street thugs."

"Do you really want to talk about this again?" he asked, annoyed.

"We never finished talking about it. I wanted Laurel to arrest you." She admitted.

Roy stopped sweeping. "You know, you're not the first girlfriend to say that to me." He told her.

"She said I couldn't change you, so I'm not going to try to." Thea said, handing him two items.

Roy took them and looked at them in confusion. It was a paycheck, and the Hozen Nathan had given her. "What, so you're giving me money and a rock?"

"The check is two weeks' severance from the club." Thea said to his surprise. He looked up at her as she wiped away tears. "Just because I can't change you doesn't mean I have to let you be in my life until you get yourself killed." Roy scoffed. "And my brother gave me that when he came back from the dead." She continued, indicating the rock. "He said it was a Hozen, some Buddhist thing that symbolizes reconnecting. If you want to reconnect with me, keep the Hozen and tear up that check."

"I don't do too well with ultimatums." He told her.

"And I don't do all that great with people I love getting hurt. And worse." She replied, and then walked off, leaving Roy alone to think.

Nathan's Apartment

Later

Nathan was drinking some of his Woodford Reserve as Chien walked into the apartment, taking off her jacket.

"I'm not happy Chien." Nathan said as he finished his glass. "Stealing medicinal opiates for a hospital that desperately needs it. We never went that low when I was still in the Triad."

"Look, I know you're upset Nate, and I didn't want to do it either but I had to do something."

"Why?" Nathan asked as he walked over to her wrapping her in his arms, "Babe, talk to me."

"There were rumors spreading amongst the Triad lieutenants that I was weak and that someone should replace me. I had to do something that would calm them down."

"It's okay," He whispered as he kissed full on the lips, "I didn't realize I had left you in a vulnerable position as a leader. I'll take care of it."

"But in the meantime," Nathan as he cuffed her arms behind her back, surprising her, "I'm gonna have to punish you. The fun way, of course." He mischievously smirked as he carried her up to his bed, placing her on the edge of it.

Lemon

"You've been a naughty girl, Chien." Nathan said as he kissed her for a moment before pulling away and biting her lower lip "You need to be taught a lesson."

"Well, why don't you come over here and teach me, Officer Queen." She said, slipping into roleplay.

Nathan nodded, before he pulled Chien into him and slammed his lips forcefully into hers. Nathan slipped his tongue into her mouth, dominating her as she wrapped her wrapped her legs around him, her arms still behind her back.

Nathan cupped her tight ass tightly as Chien worked her hips to grind her mound against the hard bulge in his pants, before she pulled away with his bottom lip in her teeth, before she released him

Nathan ripped her shirt off as threw it away before doing the same with her black bra, and he then took his pants and boxers off. His cock now free, he addressed "Time to start working off your sentence."

"Mmmm…if it's this, I suppose I could work enjoy working off my sentence." Chien cooed as she sucked his dick.

"Oh fuck," Nathan moaned as Chien sucked his cock into her hot mouth

Chien moaned as she twirled her tongue around the cockhead before concentrating on the piss slit and the sensitive spot directly beneath. Her beautiful full lips slid up and down Nathan's cock as she bobbed her head up and down. Nathan, combed his fingers through her long wavy white hair as he relaxed chair as the beautiful Triad leader pleasured him while kneeling between his spread legs. Slurping sounds filled the room as Chien sucked his cock while she stared into his eyes, before she took him all the way down till her nose was pressed into his pelvis, and unable to take it anymore, he moaned as he began to paint Chien's insides with his load.

Nathan sighed as he stopped cumming before he reached down and picked Chien up.

"Mr. Queen. Are you going to take advantage of me?" Chien asked with a sexy smirk on her beautiful face.

"You want that early parole or not?" Nathan asked, before he kissed her passionately and turned her around bent her over the bed, before he pulled her yoga pants down to see her sexy butt and he pulled down her black thong, and stood up

"Mmm," Chien moaned in anticipation as she felt Nathan place himself between her legs against her pussy.

"Brace yourself." Nathan whispered in her ear, as he began to nibble on her ear, before Chien gave a sharp gasp when she felt his cock head in it's true size at the entrance pussy before Nathan thrusted in with one hard thrust,

"Oh, Officer Queen," gasped Chien as she arched her back at the pleasure at having her pussy stretched to it's limit.

Nathan rested against Chien for a moment to let her adjust, groaning at how her pussy was gripping his cock tightly as it spasmed, before he began to slowly stroke in and out of the Triad Leader as she gripped the desk tightly. The length, speed and power behind Nathan's thrust increased gradually as he grunted in pleasure while fucking the woman from behind.

"Oh Officer, fuck me," urged Chien as she thrust her ass back at him , driving her cunt further around his cock.

Nathan began to suck on Chien's as he pounded into her, causing smacking noises bounce off the walls as his pelvis met Chien's ass, as he began fondle her breasts, while the woman pushed her ass into him meeting his thrust.

"Oh, my god." Chien moaned Nathan licked his way down her neck as he continued to take her before she slipped her hands out of the cuffs and reached up and took his cheek in hand, and looked back into his eyes as she placed her free hand onto the one gripping her breast "I Love you, Nathan."

Nathan smiled at Chien, before in a blur of speed, he turned her over into missionary position and looked her in the eyes, "I'm yours, and no one elses." Chien said, her abandonment issues with her parents being filled with Nathan who was showing her the only real love she had ever known "I'm always scared that one day I'm going to lose you."

"You will never lose me, I will be at your side whenever you need me, through thick and thin," Nathan smiled as he kissed her, and they interlaced their fingers and held hands.

Chien smiled before she slammed her lips into Nathan's who began to slam into her causing the desk to creak as Chien held onto his hands tightly as his hips became a blur, before after a few moments Chien seized up and began to tremble as she came, while Nathan continued to pound into her, before he gave a loud moan as he buried himself into Chien's stretched pussy and unleashed his load.

Chien continued to shake and moan under him as they both came, and kissed him.

Lemon End

Flashback

Slade approached the river bank where Nathan and Shado, now mostly clothed again, were cuddling. Shado's head rested on Nathan's shoulder and they were holding hands.

"I don't even know how long it's been since I laughed." Nathan was saying. Slade watched them for a few moments, a look of sadness mixed with jealousy playing over his face, before he rose and moved away a small distance.

He turned his back and then called out, "Hey, kid. Shado."

The two jumped up like kids being caught with their hands in the cookie jar and rapidly put on the rest of their clothes. "Yeah, just, um… We were just washing off." Nathan yelled back.

"Well, you better prepare to get dirty again." Slade said, walking down towards them. "I think I figured out where those men were headed. It's a couple of clicks northwest of here." The two looked at him, slightly ashamed. "Well, let's go." He said finally, moving off. Olive and Shado moved behind him as he walked.

"Be careful." Slade advised Nathan as they walked. "Don't fall too hard."

"Why not?" he asked. "To make sure there isn't part of this island that isn't a living hell?"

"To survive." Slade said with a grin. "She's a distraction, and in a place like this, a distraction's going to cloud your judgment. And that is what's going to get you killed." Slade looked back at Nathan. "Look at what this island has already done to you, kid."

QC's rooftop

Next night

On the rooftop of Queen Consolidated building stood a lone woman. This woman was Daisy Johnson, the woman who was secretly the hacker who went by the name of SkyeQuake. She was looking around as the Nine-Tailed Fox said he was going to meet her here but now she felt that she had been stood up as she had been waiting for almost 10 minutes.

"Looking for someone. I imagine you would be, Ms. Johnson," came a modulated voice as she whirled around to see it was Prometheus, "Though I imagine in certain circles, you prefer SkyeQuake."

"No way," Daisy said with excitement and some trepidation, since while she did want to meet her hero, she's a bit nervous, especially considering his reputation, "Prometheus is Nine-Tailed Demon Fox."

"Pleasure to make your acquaintance. Who would have thought the new IT girl in QC is a secret hacker." Prometheus greeted before his demeanor changed. "Still it begs the question. Are you a friend or are you a foe?"

"What? What you mean?" Daisy asked.

"What I mean is the last time my master or I considered recruiting a potential hacker, she turned out to not be what we wanted." Prometheus explained, "Now you are a hackitivist, but you haven't done anything to be hurtful to the American public and national security, so your still clear for now."

"I always believed in the freedom of information. Watching you work is what inspired me to be a hacktivist in the first place. But I never put the US national security at risk. I never put out information that could hurt millions of innocent people or even a few people. Mostly just harmless stuff.

"And you don't care about the fact that I drop bodies?" Prometheus asked casually.

"It does kinda bug me a bit." Daisy admitted before she continued, "But that's only I've never killed people before. I watched my father get gunned down when I was a child and my mother abducted. It why I learned about computer and hacking. I wanted to find what happened to her."

"This doesn't seem like something you would typically tell someone." Prometheus said.

"I'm telling you this because I want to help you. I want you to trust me." She admitted.

"I don't immediately trust people with my deepest secrets," Prometheus started, making Daisy face change into a disappointed and sad expression before he continued, "Doesn't mean I'm not willing to give you a chance to prove that I can trust you."

"How can I help?" Daisy asked, her previous disappointment gone.

"There are a few people I need to find. Some bad people that need to be taught the fear of god." Prometheus said.

Abandoned Warehouse

In the morning, the heads of the Triad's Lieutenants could be found in a duffel bag.

DA's Office

Laurel was working late in the D.A.'s office. She was alone, looking over her next case file when the lights suddenly went out.

"Hello, Ms Lance." A familiar, distorted voice said.

"You." Laurel said to the vigilante.

"I figured we should talk."

"Fine." Laurel turned to face him. "Turn that thing off and pull back your hood."

"I don't see any reason to. I'm not your enemy." He told her. "Last time I checked, you didn't care so much about what my mentor did. You two understood each other."

"I understand that you're a criminal, and mass murderer." She said. "And you think the law doesn't apply to you- it does."

"Not when the system is corrupt. The law doesn't work when the rich and corrupt members of society twist it to benefit themselves while they step on the throats of those less fortunate than them." He pointed out. "You don't need me to tell you that your heart isn't truly in this. You don't hate me. You're just sad that your beloved Tommy died and coming after me is your way of dealing with that sense of loss that you feel."

She sniffled, trying to ignore what he said. "I don't think you wear that hood because you're a hero. I think you wear it to hide that you're a coward, and I promise you, I will see you unmasked, prosecuted and sent to prison." She promised, before turning away from him. "Don't ever speak to me again."

He left after that.

Flashback

Slade, Nathan and Shado were moving quickly through the forest, following Slade's lead. Suddenly he paused, looked down at the map- and the photo that was attached to it, then looked back up. "To those men, this location could have been on any one of 150 different islands." He said, then turned back to his friends with a smile. "But for somebody who knows this island like he knows his own name…"

"So those men were looking for this place." Shado said, looking around. "Why?"

"That would be the question." Slade said.

"Slade." The pair turned to Nathan, who had moved a short distance off. "Over here." He pointed. Slade looked, and saw that there was a cave there, whose entrance was concealed behind thick vines. Slade put the map away and took out his K-Bar, then cautiously entered the cave. Inside he found a small area that had been converted into a rudimentary living area. On the ground, though, he saw skeletons dressed in Japanese uniforms with misshapen skulls.

Nathan knelt beside one of the bodies.

"Their skulls are misshapen." Shado noted.

"What happened to these people?" Nathan wondered aloud.

Slade bent over and picked up a samurai sword. "Whatever did happen to them was over 60 years ago." He said, looking at the rusted sword. "These soldiers belong to the Japanese Imperial Army."

"They've been here since World War II." Shado said.

"We're missing something here." Slade said as Nathan examined another of the bodies. Around the neck he found a stone arrowhead with markings carved into it. He pulled it off and looked at it curiously.

"You don't just come here for corpses." Slade finished, looking around for more clues.

Nathan was examining the bodies when he picked up a sheathed Shin Gunto. He unsheathed it and examined the blade. Seeing that it was still in good condition he resheathed it and held onto it.

Flashback End

Back in the present, Roy was taking out some trash behind Verdant when he suddenly sensed he wasn't alone. He knelt down, depositing the glass bottles as he subtly reached into his pocket. In one fluid movement, he withdrew the arrow, rose, and spun around, flinging the projectile-

Right at Prometheus, who caught it by placing his finger in the shuriken's hole.

Roy stared, stunned, before he finally found his voice. "I've been looking for you."

"You should probably stop. I do kill a lot of criminals, after all." Prometheus said.

"I don't care about that! You saved my life!" Roy said. "Made me realize that what I had, wasn't much of a life." He admitted. "But I could do what others couldn't, or too afraid to do. I could help you save the city."

"You have not been trained." Prometheus said.

"I can fight." Roy protested.

"You know how to take a beating." The vigilante shot back. "There is a difference."

"Then teach me! Let me help you." Roy begged.

Prometheus walked slowly towards him. "Ok." He said after a moment of silence. "There is a way you can help me. But not by taking on the Triad or the cops."

"Then how?"

"To do what I do, I need intel. My info on the Glades isn't the greatest. You can be my eyes and ears in the Glades." He offered. "That's how you can save help me save the city."

"How do I contact you?" Roy asked.

Prometheus tossed back the Shuriken. Prometheus then pulled out a red phone and tossed it Roy, which he caught. "It's an untraceable phone. If you find something, call me when you're alone. This way, you can help me protect this city, but you don't have to risk your relationship with your girlfriend either."

Roy bent down to retrieve the Shuriken. "Are you sure it's all right that I keep this?" he asked, looking up- but Prometheus was gone. He grinned in disbelief.

Verdant

"If I want to be with you, do I keep that or give it back?" he asked Thea as he walked up to her. "You were a little unclear."

She looked at him hopefully. "You mean it?"

"No more fighting." He promised. "If it's a choice between life with you or life without you, life with you will win every single time." She smiled at him. "I'm done trying to be a hero." Thea rose and gently kissed him on the lips before embracing her boyfriend. Roy retuned the hug gratefully, even as he felt the weight of the shuriken in his back pocket.

DA's Office

Later that night, Laurel was working late again at the D.A.'s office when, once again, the lights went out.

"I told you to stay away from me." She said, spinning around to see Prometheus standing in the darkened office.

Nathan activated the voice changer. "I thought you might have changed your mind after I stopped the men terrorizing our city."

"This isn't your city." Laurel said sharply. "It's your killing fields."

"Oh, and putting criminals in prison suddenly works?" Prometheus noted.

"Well, don't worry, your life is over." Laurel said, grinning coldly. She held up a small device for him to see- a signaling device. "Your life as a free man."

She pressed the button, and instantly the Task Force warmed into the office. They surrounded the vigilante, cutting off all avenues of escape. He drew and arrow and nocked it, turning slowly to face each of the cops- but there were always more at his back. He was well and truly trapped.

"I told you to stay away." Laurel said smugly. "Somehow I knew you wouldn't listen."
