I do not own any of these character, all rights go to DC comics etc. etc.
Part One: The Setup
He survived, shipwrecked, alone on an island for two years. In that time, he tought himself to use a bow to hunt. Ever since he was rescued he's decided to fight crime. His name is Oliver Queen. By day, he is a millionare playboy. By night, he is
Green Arrow.
Star City:
Star City. He calls it home to him. He's protected it for three years. Tonight he has the choice of saving a corrupt buisnessman from losing one million dollars, or saving a convienient store owner from a hard earned twenty five bucks. He choses the latter. Five men. Easy enough for him.
Green Arrow hits one of them from a rooftop with a boxing glove arrow. He's out cold immediatley. The next is clotheslined by the rope he shoots to get himself safely to the ground. That's two down.
Another man goes for a swing at him, but he ducks and fires another boxing glove arrow at the man's chin. Another one down. As another draws his gun, he shoots a regular arrow into the barrel. It backfires, knocking the man out. The last man gets a simple shot to the shoulder.
The clotheslined man gets up, draws his gun and--
BAM!
He's hit with a concussive blast of green energy.Green Lantern has arrived on the scene.
"Hey, Hal."
"Ollie."
"You could've called."
"It was faster to fly in, besides, I DID save your life."
"I could've handled him."
Hal smiles. "Say it."
"No."
"Saaay it"
"It's not gonna work."
"Say it!"
"Okay, okay! Thanks."
"That's all I needed to hear. Just making sure if we're still on for the ball game tomorrow"
"You kiddin'? It's the Yankees! Popcorn's on me.
Hal's ring started murmuring "What's it saying?" asked Green Arrow.
"Carol has become Star Sapphire again. Gotta go."
Hal flew off. They had only known each other for a year since they helped form the Justice League, they were already the closest friends each other had. Ollie smiled as he ran off towards his home.
Location: Indesclosed:
Two men sit opposite each other at two ends of a table. One takes a large sum of money and places it the other man's side.
"This is the payment in advance for the hit." My empoyer wants to make sure you know the details for the hit."
"Then explain it to me again."
"You have to take down your target in one week."
"Whos the target?"
"Star City's local hero: Green Arrow."
The other man smiles beneath his mask.
"If you don't no money. Believe me, there's plenty more where that came from! more than five times that!"
"What's to stop me from taking all this money and not taking the hit?"
"If you do, we'll find you and kill you."
"Is that so?" The man pulled out his gun and shot the other man. He began talking to the dead body. "Well, my good man, tell your employer...."
He pulled an arrow out of his belt, stuck a message on it, and stabbed it into the dead man's forehead.
"Deathstroke will be taking the job."
