Laurel was on the bed with Malcolm and Slade looking over wedding details. And it was frustrating. Not only was there still tension, Laurel wasn't the easiest bride in the world.

"No! That wouldn't work, for so many reasons, this is the only one that will work that I like," Laurel said.

"Fine, that ones good," Slade said, done with it.

"Okay, great, now-" Laurel started before Thea burst in and fell over a chair.

"Someones here, looking for Laurel," Thea said after she got up.

"Do you know who it is?" Malcolm asked, ignoring Thea's dramatics.

"Nope, it's a woman, and she said her name was... Elizabeth! That's what she said," Thea said.

"I'll go see her," Laurel said, paling.

"Do you need someone to come with you?" Malcolm said, looking up.

"Nope," Laurel said, popping the 'p.'

Laurel walked to the door and saw Elizabeth standing there.

"Laurel hey I- oh wow, what!?" Elizabeth said, as soon as she saw Laurel's baby bump.

"Yeah, that doesn't make me feel self-conscious about being pregnant," Laurel said, smirking.

"I'm sorry, do you want to go outside to talk?" Elizabeth asked.

"Yeah, sure," Laurel said.

"So what are you here for?" Laurel asked as they walked around outside.

"A warning, you're being hunted by a mercenary. Her name is Nyssa Rattko, and she's-"

"One of the most infamous mercenaries that works on her own," Laurel said. "Yeah, I know, I've worked on a case that was never solved. She was too protected."

"We assume it was Darhk, but he has no previous ties to her," Elizabeth said.

"No, he doesn't, but Max Lord does. Thank you," Laurel said.

"I dont approve of this. But I dont want you to die. So here us some information, as well as the only known picture of her," Elizabeth said, handing Laurel an envelope.

"We're screwed," Frost said, looking at the picture. They were in the living room with Malcolm, Slade, Alex, Kara, Oliver, Veronica, Tommy, Barry, Quentin, Laurel, and Thea.

"Frost!" Malcolm said.

"I'm sorry, but have you met her, she's scary," Frost said.

"I met her once, she was pretty scary," Oliver said.

"That's coming from him!" Frost said.

"I agree with Frost, she can be scary, I've met her," Alex said, reaching out for Frost's hand.

"So Alex's opinion is biased right?" Veronica said.

"I will hurt you," Alex said.

"Worth it," Veronica said, hiding behind Tommy.

"Am I your human shield?" Tommy asked.

"Yep, pretty much," Veronica said.

"Anyway! They're right, she's dangerous," Slade said.

Sara walked in and said, "Why are you looking at pictures of my ex, Barry, did you have something to do with this?"

Barry held his hands up in surrender.

"There's no way this is your ex-girlfriend, one of her most famous practices is that she doesn't date, to avoid attachment," Malcolm said.

"Well, I do know her, her name is Nyssa, and we dated for a long time in college. We actually considered getting married, but then she disappeared, but she loved me," Sara said.

"This might be good, we could use this, Sara's our plan, if she finds us, if we could turn her to our side, that would be amazing," Slade said.

"If she shows up, I'll be glad to help. Do not even start dad, I'm doing this," Sara said, seeing her dad start to object.

Later that night, after Laurel, Slade, and Malcolm had settled all their arguments over the wedding, Laurel was sitting on the bed, with her hand on her stomach.

She saw Slade and Malcolm come in, and she said, "Sit, both of you, we're going to work this out before the wedding, because, it's in a week, and I will not have us being mad at each other, because we deserve to have a good time," Laurel said.

They both sat down on the bed and looked at each other. It was going to be a long night.
