Chapter 11
When Laurel arrived at the apartment, she was ecstatic to see her sister there.
"Sara." Laurel said as she rushed up and hugged her little sister, who eagerly hugged her back.
"Hey Laurel. Man, this is going a lot better than the first time I came back from the dead." Sara said and Laurel smiled as she wiped a tear from her eye before wiping them from her sister's eyes.
"What's with the crying?" Laurel asked.
"The last time I saw you alive was right before I got another ship. And I can't help but think that maybe if I hadn't had left, maybe I could've saved you." Sara said, since while she knew what Rip said, she also couldn't stop herself from thinking that maybe she could've saved her sister if she'd just been there.
"Sara, you forget I encouraged you to get on that ship and I am telling you now that if you are given the opportunity to do so again, you need to take it." Laurel said and Sara sniffed.
"I will. I was already planning on it, since joining the legends allowed me to meet the love of my life." Sara said.
"You found someone." Laurel said eagerly and Sara nodded.
"I'll get us some fresh drinks while you two catch up." Oliver said as he got up.
"So, tell me everything." Laurel demanded and Sara smiled.
"Her name is Ava Sharpe. Our relationship is actually kind of like your's and Ollie's, since I'm the exciting, rule breaking cool person who plays by their own rules and she's kind of the uptight, rule abiding model citizen. I'll let you guess which one you are in your relationship." Sara said with a smile as Laurel smacked her lightly, since she'd honestly missed this interaction with her sister.
"Very funny, go on. How'd you meet?" Laurel asked.
"She kept trying to arrest me." Sara said.
"You're kidding?" Laurel said.
"No, but in her defense, the Legends were technically on the run at the time." Sara said as she explained things to her.
"Sounds like when Ollie was dating Mckenna Hall." Laurel said as Oliver returned.
"Yes, but over time, Ava and I went from hating each other to loving each other. We were actually talking about moving in together before our last mess before the Crisis happened. Honestly, before Ava, I never thought of my life beyond the next day. But she changed that. Even when I was with both Ollie and Nyssa, I could never see myself planning a future with either of them. No offense Ollie." Sara said and Oliver smiled.
"None taken, the feeling is mutual. I think we both knew deep down that in the end, something would end up pulling us apart." Oliver said and Sara nodded.
"Anyways, that all changed for me when I fell for Ava. For the first time in my life, I honestly found someone that I felt I could spend the rest of my life with. Of course, we've had our difficulties, but we always found our way back to each other. And I wouldn't have met her if I hadn't joined the Legends. That's why I have to leave again when I get the chance." Sara said and Laurel smiled.
"I'm glad you met someone that you feel like was made just for you." Laurel said and Sara had to stifle a laugh.
"What did I say?" Laurel asked.
"I'm sorry, it's just what you said, about Ava being made for me, you have no idea how accurate that is." Sara said.
"What do you mean?" Laurel asked.
"Ava is a clone from the year 2213. It's a long story." Sara said.
"Right now, the only long story I want to hear about is what you've been doing since you arrived on this earth. Since you've been gone way too long to have only gotten your freedom from the League." Oliver said.
"How did you get your freedom from the League?" Laurel asked.
"I am Ra's al Ghul." Sara said bluntly.
"Seriously. Did you disband the League." Laurel asked.
"No, gave it to Nyssa. While I was gone, J'onn tracked me down and gave me this." Sara said as she pulled out the memory gun.
"What is that?" Oliver asked.
"It's a memory gun. It restores people's memories to how they were before the Crisis. I've tested it and it works." Sara said.
"Tested it out how?" Oliver asked.
"I tracked down Talia and restored her memories to ensure that she wouldn't train Chase and I think that she and Nyssa may be on the road to recovery, I've also restored Nyssa's memories as well and they are working together to carry on the work Talia and Thea started on the old earth." Sara said.
"So you came back after that?" Oliver asked.
"No, I also took care of the Darhk problem." Sara said.
"You killed him." Oliver said.
"Not exactly." Sara said sheepishly.
"Sara, what did you do?" Laurel asked and Sara took a deep breath.
"I restored Darhk's memories." Sara said awkwardly.
"What? Why hell would you do that? You just made killing him ten times harder." Oliver shouted at her, shocked that she of all people would do that.
"I did it to spare his daughter all the pain that you caused her Ollie." Sara snapped.
"What?" Oliver asked.
"Did you even bother checking in on Nora Darhk after you killed her father? She ended up being possessed by a demon to bring her father back, but in doing so, it put her in danger and it turns out that there is some good in that bastard, since despite all his flaws, he genuinely cares about his daughter." Sara said as they both took deep breaths.
"You're sure that restoring Darhk's memories was the right call?" Laurel asked.
"Hive is shattered. Ray, Nate, Constantine, Mick, Snart and I made sure of it before we came home. Darhk willingly gave up his magic and disbanded what was left of the organization. Not to mention I severed his hand off and the League will be keeping constant tabs on him. And honestly, the only reason I did what I did is because his daughter actually becomes one of my best friends and she's also Ray's future girlfriend. It's a very long story." Sara said.
"Okay, I'll trust you on this Sara, but if he sets a single foot out of line." Oliver said.
"He'll have twenty league assassins putting arrows in him, all of which Nyssa chose because they're being trained to resist his magic." Sara said.
"Okay then. Sorry I snapped at you." Oliver said.
"It's fine, I was expecting it. But Ollie, please trust that I know what I'm doing." Sara said.
"Sara, you know that you are among the very select group of people I do trust. It's Darhk that I don't trust." Oliver said.
"Anyways, how long are you in town for?" Laurel asked, changing the subject.
"Until Rip picks me up. And while I'm here, I want to restore dad's memories, since honestly, I don't understand why you didn't do that yourself." Sara said and Oliver shrugged.
"I guess I didn't want to drag him into this world again, I feel bad enough that both of you are in it." Oliver said.
"Ollie, I appreciate that, but our mission will be a lot easier if he's not gunning after you." Laurel said and Oliver nodded.
"Okay, we'll restore Quentin's memories." Oliver said.
"Now that I think about it, we should also restore your mom's memories and Tommy's." Laurel said.
"Maybe Tommy, but under no circumstances are we bringing my mother into this." Oliver said and Laurel knew that would be a talk for another time as they continued talking.
