Chapter 3

"I'm assuming Oliver told you to expect us." Roy asked Lyla when he saw her waiting outside Argus HQ.

"I figured it would be best if we spoke out here, since you don't have clearance to be in Argus HQ." Lyla said.

"That's actually what I wanted to talk to you about. I was wondering if that offer you made me in the old reality was still good?" Roy asked and Lyla smiled.

"Of course it is. Honestly, Oliver told me to expect you to reach out at some point." Lyla said.

"And we were also wondering." Thea said.

"If I'd be willing to extend the same privilege to you that I am to Team Arrow." Lyla finished.

"How?" Thea asked.

"Director of Argus, I know all." Lyla said and Thea rolled her eyes.

"Translation, Oliver told you that too." Thea said.

"He just wants to make sure you're all set, since remember, it took him years to get his operation to the level it was at before." Lyla said.

"I know and I'm not mad at him about that. I actually appreciate him being so supportive." Thea said.

"Anyways, let me know when you pick a base location and we'll go from there." Lyla said.

"Aren't you going to get in trouble if you get caught funding vigilante activities?" Thea asked her.

"As long as I keep it limited to teams who actually have Argus agents in their team, no. As far as I know, Barry's never had a problem funding his team, I think that Sara's team was initially free lance until the Time Bureau was set up, though that doesn't exist now, so not sure what they're going to do and I'm not sure how Supergirl or Batwoman fund their operations, but it won't be from Argus." Lyla said and Thea nodded in understanding, right as Lyla's phone went off.

"Everything alright?" Thea asked.

"Considering the fact that I just got a message saying that an old friend of yours was just seen entering Star City through the airport, not sure." Lyla said.

"Who?" Thea asked.

"Nyssa." Lyla said.

"Tell your guys to stand down, since I asked J'onn to restore Nyssa's memories. We'll stop by the airport to deal with her on the way to Ivy Town." Thea said and Lyla nodded, since honestly, she was relieved to hear it, especially since she knew that Thea could deal with Nyssa a lot better than any of her agents could.

When Thea and Roy arrived at the airport, Thea found Nyssa just sitting in a chair there, as if she was waiting for someone.

"Waiting for someone?" Thea asked her.

"I honestly thought it would be your brother who came after me, not you." Nyssa said.

"I was with Lyla when she got the alert that you were here. But why are you here Nyssa?" Thea asked.

"I came here seeking Oliver's help, but considering what I now know about him, I can't ask it of him." Nyssa said.

"Help with what?" Thea asked.

"Dealing with my father. I released Sara from the League after your friend Mr. J'onzz restored my memories and I am now on the run from the League." Nyssa said.

"So you came here in the hopes that Oliver could help you deal with your father, since you know that you can't beat him." Thea said and Nyssa nodded.

"Nyssa, I understand that you want Oliver's help, but you can't seriously be asking him to take on the League so soon. He already has to deal with Merlyn, not to mention the fact that he's a father now. We can't put them in any more danger than they're already in. He has enough problems without adding Ra's to it." Thea said and Nyssa nodded.

"I know. Luckily, he is not the only member of the Queen family who stands a chance against my father. Between Merlyn, Oliver, Talia and myself, you've become quite the warrior Thea, considering you defeated my sister for Al Faith's sword. With a bit more refining and getting yourself into proper fighting condition, you could defeat my father." Nyssa said and Thea nodded, already planning on it, since not only was she a former heir to the demon, but she'd been trained by three Ra's al Ghuls and another heir to the demon. And while she was aware that her current body was not in proper fighting shape, since her old self had never even dreamed of hurting anyone, once she got back into proper condition, she'd be able to become Ra's al Ghul herself. Not that she wanted the title, but she knew that it couldn't hurt to have.
