Arrowverse - One Shots

Legends of Tomorrow

Season 2:

So while I am watching Legends I get a lot of ideas. So here is one about 2x8: The Chicago Way. Malcolm, Damien and Eobard are working together and they surprised Sara, Jax and Stein in the bar, where they were to get some information...

''We need to hurry'' Nate said. ''They will survive'' Amaya sighed. ''We don't know that. We are dealing with a freaking speedster'' Nate said as he entered the Bridge. They needed Gideons help to track them. ''Give me a minute'' Gideon said as she did her best tracking the two. ''We don't have a minute'' Amaya said. ''I am going to ignore that. I am trying my best'' Gideon said. ''Just hurry up'' Nate sighed. Other Legends entered the Bridge. ''What is going on?'' Ray asked. ''Sara and Stein are kidnapped'' Amaya explained. ''We need to save Grey and Sara!'' Jax was panicing. He felt that Stein was scared through the connection they shared as Firestorm. ''I am still doing my best'' Gideon said. ''I need a drink'' Mick sighed as he got a sixpack. The others ignored him. Their attention was focussed on finding their captain and Stein.

''It's been a long time, Sara'' she looked up and saw him in front of her. That son of a bitch. Malcolm Merlyn. ''You look good for someone who's come back from the dead'' he added. Sara hated that guy so much, he was the reason she was dead in the first place. ''Why am I not surprised that you and Damien Darhk would find each other?'' Sara said instead. ''What do you want from us?'' Martin asked. ''You have something we need, and while my partners think I'm a fool for trying, I would like to broker a deal with you'' Merlyn explained. Sara tried to break free, but she failed. She was bound too tight to her chair. ''You have in your possession an amulet. Give it to me, and I will give you nine years of your life back'' Merlyn continued to Sara. ''What are you talking about?'' Sara asked. ''Oh, maybe Oliver didn't tell you, but I was the one who arranged to blow up the Queen's Gambit'' Merlyn laughed. That changed Sara's perspective of everything what had happened to her in a second. Her heart pounded in her chest as she realized he wasn't lying. ''That was the day everything changed for you, Sara, hundreds of dominos toppling. Dr. Ivo, Slade Wilson, the League of Assassins, losing your sister'' Merlyn summed up. All of her memories flashed in Sara's mind. All the pain she felt, it all came back. ''And you losing your son'' Sara added to the list. ''We both get clean slates'' Merlyn said. It sounded too good to be true for Sara. ''Why don't you just ask your speedster friend to take you back in time?'' Stein interrupted. ''Because Malcolm's just his errand boy, sent to retrieve the amulet. Why is it so important? What does it matter?'' Sara asked. She didn't show Merlyn emotions. He couldn't be in the advantage. ''I'm giving you and your sister a chance to live normal lives!'' Merlyn got desperate and needed to convince Sara to help him. ''To go back, maybe go to collage, meet a nice boy, or girl, settle down'' he added. ''No, thank you'' Sara passed. ''I was never meant for those things, and I know that now. And besides, you can't just go back and change things like that'' she added. Merlyn laughed. ''Why not?'' he asked. ''Because time is sacred, and it can't be changed to suit any one person's desire without harming the lives of countless others'' Sara explained. ''But you wouldn't remember any of this, would you? You would be blissfully unaware of time travel, of loss, of heartbreak. You'd be happy, and isn't that what matters most in the end?'' Merlyn said. Sara considered it, but pushed the thought out of her mind. She wouldn't listen to him. She wouldn't let him win this fight. ''Hey, Malcolm'' she said. Merlyn turned around. ''I'll take a nightmare that's real over a dream that's a lie.''

And with that Malcolm Merlyn left. But he would be back. He had all the time he needed.

''Gideon, we are waiting!'' Nate sighed. But Gideon had nothing. ''Don't blame me, they're invisible for me to find'' Gideon responded offended. ''I know, I know'' Nate said. ''You okay?'' Amaya asked. She walked into the library. Nate held a book in his hands, but didn't read it. ''We have to find them'' he said. ''We will. Come on, this is not your fault'' Amaya sat down next to him. ''I know, but I could never live with myself if they got killed'' Nate said. He put down the book and stared at the cover. ''We will find them, Gideon will find them somehow.''
