Lightning-fast encounter

After this particular incident, I went back to work the next day as normal. As I was driving the bus to the company, I suddenly saw bright sparks next to the bus. Strangely, when I stopped at a red light, I could see a man in a red suit between the sparks. Had I just seen Central City's "The Flash" here? My day was going to get even more irritating because while I was writing a security report, my phone rang. "Palmer Tech, Security Department, you're talking to Julian Launspach, what can I do for you?" I took the call. "City hall in 20 minutes you will be on time.", Said a mysterious voice and then the connection was interrupted. Fortunately, I recognized the voice from our last meeting. I grabbed my gun holster that was always close at hand over my chair. 20 minutes later I arrived at the meeting point. Suddenly I felt a gust of wind that passed me. "Slow down, Barry, not that you nearly catch him as it happened to me," I heard a familiar voice say. Now I finally got to know Oliver Queen personally. He was accompanied by Barry Allen, a Central City forensic scientist better known as The Flash. "Is that the guy who protected Felicity from Malcolm Merlyn's henchman?" asked Barry. "Who is this Malcolm Merlyn?" I asked confused. "Ever heard of Dark Archer or the League of Assassins?" Oliver asked me. "Assassin League only," I reply. "Since the thing with my sister, I and my friends have been persecuted by Merlyn's henchmen.", Oliver said "He blames me for her death and has sworn revenge. And Spartan said you weren't bad with the pistol." he added. Is Arrow asking me for help right now? I've always had a double life having been taught swordsmanship and hand-to-hand combat by the devil at Hells Kitchen. I had had a visual impairment since I was nine and Daredevil had helped me use my disabilities to my advantage. "Are you asking me for my help right now?" I asked Oliver. "Yes, we heard about your hidden talents and think that they could help us to destroy the league. Oh and only Barry, John and I know about it," I got in response. Team Arrow had apparently researched well, because they also knew from my eyes which ones the Punisher had stabbed me, I've been wearing sunglasses since then. In the coming weeks I should be trained by Oliver and Barry.
