The next day I was at lunch waiting for my friends to get back from the lunch line when Samantha sat down next to me. "Hey freak!" she stated. "What do you want Samantha?" I asked. "What was Oliver Queen doing carrying you into his car yesterday?" She asked. Before i could respond Chloe came up and slammed her tray on the table "It's none of you business Samantha now go away." She said angrily. Samantha leaned in and squinted her eyes "Or what?" Chloe raised an eyebrow "You wanna find out?" Samantha smirked not backing down "I really really do because i doubt your going to do anything!" Chloe got up from the table quickly and ran to Samantha grabbing the front of her shirt and pulling her off the seat "Chloe Knight put her down it is NOT worth it!" I yelled. Chloe growled and dropped Samantha on the floor before any of the teachers could see. Samantha was terrified "GO!" Chloe yelled. Samantha got up and scurried away quickly. "Thanks Chlo." I said. "Meg i don't know why you don't stick up for yourself i KNOW you are stronger than her iv'e seen you work out and protect other people in fights but when it's you you never do anything." Chloe said while everyone else came to the table. "She's right you know." Lizzie said. "Look guys yesterday she had me cornered and iv'e had it rough i was in no shape to fight!" I exclaimed. They just nodded and we finished our lunch.
After school i was with Oliver and Thea at some fancy restaurant for dinner where i just got a salad and struggled to eat. You see it's been really easy not eating and no one noticing because no one gets up at the same time as me for breakfast, lunch is at school, and no one is ever home around dinner time so i just skip. As we were eating i head a familiar voice call my name "Megan!" I turned to see one of my best friends who's 20 (i know she's a lot older than me but she's cool) "Hey Lindz!" I called. She came over to our table and eyed Oliver "Um?" She asked. I hadn't talked to her since before my mom died so she had no idea "Oh um my mom passed away and uh Oliver is uh my uh dad and i'm uh living with him now." I said. She raised an eyebrow and looked at Oliver "Didn't your mom tell you he didn't want or care about you." She said. Oliver's eyes widened and an eyebrow went up and i gave Lindsey a warning look "Uh No?" I said. She thought for a second and then glared at Oliver "No i know it happened i remember you calling me bawling your eyes out to come pick you up because you needed someone to talk to." She said. I closed my eyes remembering that day. I was 11 and she was 17.
*FLASHBACK*
I sat in the backyard watching a young Cam play with her dad he picked her up and threw her in the air. "Higher daddy!" She giggled. I wished i had a dad to do that to me and i was little. I had thought. I went inside where my mom was on her computer doing work things. I sat on a stool beside her "Mommy why don't i have a dad? Like why isn't he in our lives?" I asked. She turned to me and her eyes went sad she sighed and stroked my hair "I'm sorry baby but when i told him he didn't want you. He doesn't care about you or me." She said. I shook my head "He didn't want me?" I asked. She shook her head "I'm sorry baby." I smiled reassuring her "It's okay." I said. Then i ran to the front yard crying and i pulled out my phone and dialed Lindsey's number "Hello?" She asked. "Lindsey!" I said bawling "Come pick me up please!" I cried. "Sure what's wrong?!?" She asked worriedly. "I'll tell you in the car just please!" I said. "Okay Meg i'm actually only a minute away im on my way!" She said. I hung up and poked my head in the door taking in a breath and scratchily said "Mom i'm going out with Lindsey!" She didn't notice my voice and yelled back "okay sweetie!" I closed the door and Lindsey pulled up in her car. Her on and off boyfriend was in shotgun so i hopped in the back. She took me to the movies with them and her boyfriend was okay with it. I really liked him he was cool with hanging out with a sixth grader and he was a junior! He was like like a big brother to me we even called each other bro and sis/sissy.
*FLASHBACK OVER*
I sighed "Thanks." I muttered sarcastically. Oliver looked upset and i knew that's what Lindsey was trying to do make him feel bad. Then behind her i spotted her on and off boyfriend "Lindsey are you dating him again?" I asked. She laughed knowing who i was talking about "Yeah he just broke up with his other girlfriend." She said. "Roy!" I called him over. He looked over saw who was at the table and tried to hide. I rolled my eyes wondering why he was acting like that "Roy Harper over here now!" I yelled. He huffed and walked over. "Roy?" Thea asked. "Hi." He said. Oliver and Thea both looked surprised and i could tell Thea and him had a history but instead of freaking out like i expected her to she just smiled. "You moved on good i was tired of you bugging me." She said laughing. She was sincere to i could hear it and i was really good at telling when people are hiding emotions reading people was my specialty. "You two know each other?" Oliver asked. Lindsey scoffed "He was there when we had to pick her up that day he loves Megan." She said. "Lindsey quit being rude my mom lied!" I said. Lindsey looked at me confused "Really?" She asked astonished "Your mom never lied to you!" I shook my head "She had a reason." I said giving her a look. Lindsey nodded understanding i didn't really want to talk about it here. "Okay well were going to go now." She said. Then she eyed my food exchanged a glance with Roy and then leaned and whispered to me "Please eat." I nodded and they left. So yeah Lindsey and Roy also knew about my eating problem. That's when a woman and a man with a camera popped up. "So is it true? Are you Oliver Queen's daughter?" She asked me loudly and enthusiastically. People flipped there heads around and everyone was staring at us. "Uh..." I responded wanting to deny but not wanting to hurt Oliver's feelings or make it worse for when it wasn't possible to deny. "Yes she is." Oliver sated. Everyone gasped and soft chatter filled the room. The woman turned to the camera "Where there you have it Oliver Queen has a daughter." She turned back to me "What's your name and how did this happen?" She asked me. Before i could respond Oliver stood up "Her name is Megan and we have to go now." He said. The and i got up and walked out of the restaurant. We quickly drove home so i would be safe in the house when the woman posted the video on whatever it was she posted videos to.
When we got to the house and in the living room Thea turned to me "Do you know who that was?" She asked worriedly. I shook my head. "That was Jessica Fog the reporter for the news everyone will know about it by tomorrow. My eyes widened. "After this week you will be going to a private school." Oliver said. I jumped off the couch. "What?!? Private school?!? No way!" I freaked out. "There is NO WAY in the world i am going to a private school!" I screeched. "You have to most especially now that it's gotten out that you're Oliver's daughter." Thea said. "Megan you have to." Oliver said firmly. "Fine!" I shouted and ran to my room.
I paced back and forth before grabbing my skateboard and going outside. I rode all the way down to the bank where one of my friends mom worked. This girls name was Stacey she hasn't been at school because she's sick with the flu so i am going to go ask her mom how she's doing to keep my mind off other things. "Hey Mrs.Clank hows Stacey doing?!?" I asked riding into the bank and up to the front desk where she was. She just yelled "Skateboard Megan." I stopped and flipped my skateboard into my hands. "Sorry." I mumbled walking the rest of the way to the desk. "It's alright love." She said. "And as for your question Stacey will be back tomorrow." I threw my fists in the air "Yay!" I said enthusiastically. She was about to respond when four men with guns ran in and said "EVERYBODY OUT!" people began to scream running out. The men wasted no time two of them went to steal money and the other two came to me before i could move a mussel. They grabbed me and Mrs.Clank screamed "Let her go!" One of the masked men yelled at her to get out or they would kill me and she swallowed "It's okay go!" I said crying. She still didn't no what to do but one of the men shoved a gun to my temple "OUT!!" She ran quickly while i cried. "SHUT UP!" They yelled dragging me to the back. I was silent. The two other men met up with us with bags of money at one of the back exits and they dragged me out. They through me in the back of a van two hopped in with me and told me not to say a word. I did as i was told and we left the driveway. "Keep your head down." One of them growled pushing me to the floor and tying me up. Half way through i decided to take my chances "So is someone going to tell me the plan here?" I asked. "Shut up." One of them growled. "Seriously i don't think you telling me is going to hurt anything." I said. "Look kid if you don't shut up i will do it for you!" One of them yelled. "No you won't Dave!" One of the guys in the front said (him and the driver were the only ones who had taken off there masks. "Were going to ransom you off." the same guy said. "Oh okay." I said. Both guys in the back looked down at me and the one in the passenger seat turned around to look at me to "Take a picture it'll last longer." I said sarcastically. "How are you so calm when you were crying not to long ago?" One of them asked. I pretended to think about it "I don't know i think i'm bipolar." I said. The guy who was driving laughed a deep silky laugh. "So who is who?" I asked. "I mean i know Dave is the grumpy annoying guy who i already hate but that's it." i said. The guy growled and kicked me. I yelped "DAVE!" All of the other guys yelled. "We have been over this were not doing this to hurt her were doing this to get money!" The guy in the passenger seat yelled. "Alright alright calm down everyone!" The driver said. "Dave if i'm going to leave you and Mark tonight i have to know you to are not going to take advantage of her in any way!" He barked at them. "Fine." The man grumbled. "So which one of you is Mark?" I asked. "He's not here he's where were taking you." I nodded.
Oliver's POV:
I was in the living room with Thea when my phone rang i answered it to hear a worried Felicity on the other end say "Turn on the news it's Megan!" And then she hung up. I quickly turned on the TV and watched in horror as two men grabbed a screed Megan and made their way over to two more men and out the door. I didn't stop to listen to what anyone said i grabbed my coat and ran out the door to verdant ignoring Thea's protests.
When i got to the Arrow cave Felicity was clicking quickly at the computer. I walked up behind her. "One more second." She said. "YES!" She yelled throwing her fists in the air and then she gave me Megan's location Roy, Diggle and i quickly changed and left to where they were keeping Megan.
Megan's POV:
When we got there they covered my face and walked a stumbling me into the room sat me on a chair and tied me up. Everyone left except for Dave and Mark. "So you must me Mark." I said. "Shut up!" Both men said each giving me a hard slap across the face. "You are tied up so i suggest if you don't one us to hurt you you keep your mouth closed." Dave said. "I'm guessing you guys don't like me." I said. "No dip Sherlock." Mark said. "Yes Dip Watson!" I said grinning. He punched me in the gut. So i know you are all probably wondering why i have gone from bawling to talking and seeming comfortable. I am NOT comfortable i am TERRIFIED and when that happens i go through 4 different stages. Stage one bawling, stage two hiding it, and stage three.... panic attack. That is where my breathing speeds up and i begin to scream and i'm scared of ANYONE i don't know including cops. I don't move except for flinching back and only people close to me can bring me out of it My mom, Chloe, Lindsey, and Roy were the only ones who knew about these panic attacks and how to stop them. I don't know why but this stage occurs when i might be saved so when i saw that Arrow fly past Dave's head i knew what was about to happen. My breathing got heavy and sped up while Dave and Mark leaned down to untie the knots. They weren't quick enough the Red Arrow came from behind and yanked one of them back and they began to fight. Then Green Arrow came out of nowhere and began to fight Mark. I began to scream while a man came up behind me to untie my knots. I kept screaming and put my hands over my ears. Through my screaming and crying i saw both of the men passed out on the floor and the Arrow tram made their way towards me. "She's having a panic attack." I heard a familiar voice say. The red arrow bent down in front of me his hood was down and his mask was off. It was Roy. I kept screaming. "Megan." He said softly grabbing my hands. "Megan it's okay breathe." He said. I slowed my screaming to a stop and just sat there bawling. "Megan it's okay they can't hurt you anymore." He said. I hugged him. I was angry with him for not telling me who he was but i was happy to see him. "Come on Megan." He said helping me up. I stopped bawling and walked back to his car and he dropped me off at the police station.
Oliver's POV:
After we got back to the club and Roy had dropped Megan off i turned to him. "What were you thinking showing her who you were?" I asked. "It was the only way to calm her down!" He shouted angrily at me. "Roy you just put her in danger and now she might find out who the rest of us are!" I yelled. He shook his head "I have dealt with her panic attacks before that was the only way!" He yelled. "You could have found another way!" I said. "You know what Oliver she's your daughter you should know that calming her down was important more important than her finding out about some secret!" He yelled and made his way out of the room. Diggle gave me a look "He's right Oliver." He said. I glared at him and he threw his hands up in mock surrender and left me alone with Felicity. "Oliver you should go make sure Megan's okay." She said. I nodded and left verdant.
