The Mayor of NYC is Who Now?


Sally's POV


       Oliver was telling me about how Dad didn't survive the day the Gambit went down. He then proceeded in telling me how Mom died, I really didn't care about her. She deserved it, first, she acts all perfect because of Dad's money. And then when he dies she joins someone else to destroy a part of the city, killing HUNDREDS of people in the process! That's not being misunderstood, that's downright evil!

       But, sadly, Thea and Oliver needed to get back to the city. Since he was Mayor, and his Deputy Mayor happened to be standing right next to him.

       "Ha! So now there's a new family business!"

       Thea and Oliver exchanged knowing looks.

       "But, can we come with you? I think I'm speaking for all of us when I say we need a break from NYC."

       Oliver perked up, very visible. "I don't think it's a good idea to come with us right now, but definitely after our second visit to New York. We can pick you up after the party your new mayor is throwing."

       I smiled and hugged my two siblings, Percy waved them goodbye, and Paul shook their hands.

       "We'll see you soon!"


A Few Weeks Later


       "Chop, chop, chop, everyone! The party starts in 2 minutes! We need our bags in the car, and we need everyone to be ready!"

       The new mayor's party was tonight, and we were all rushing to get there. I feel kind of guilty, though, because I completely forgot what his name was. I was still ecstatic though. It felt like forever since Oliver and Thea visited us. (Thank god it was shorter than Percy's disappearance) I wanted to see them as soon as possible, and that would have to be at the party.

       Thundering footsteps came from down the hall, Percy and Paul really were alike.

       "We're here and ready! Let's get this show on the road!" Paul yelled Percy was grinning like the Cheshire Cat.

       And off we went, showing up at the party destination in minutes.

       "Hello, welcome. All guests will be waiting here until the mayor from Star City arrives with his plus ones. Mayor's requests."

       We all nodded. I glanced at Percy's tie and quickly fixed it for him, I wish he could come with us to more family outings.

       "Welcome! Mr. Queen the party has been waiting for you."

       I heard the bodyguard talking, followed by Oliver, "Ha! You really shouldn't have. I'm usually late."

       "Yeah, I know. Come into the ballroom and we can begin the celebration!"

       "You heard the mayor, move through!"

       But all I saw was Oliver, Thea, and co. looking at each other strangely. Or at least my siblings, the blonde, the older man, and the guy that looked like a bodyguard. I wonder what that's about. We quickly followed them.

       "Oliver! Thea!"

       "Sals!"

       I hugged them both.

       "Oh! Right, guys, this is my older sister. Who I thought died, Thea never really knew she existed. Her name is Sally, this is her son Percy, and her husband Paul. Everyone these are my friends John Diggle, Felicity Smoak, Quinton Lance, Renee Ramirez, Dinah Drake, and Curtis Holt."

       We all said hello, but were quickly interrupted.

       "Excuse me, Mr. Queen. You and your friends have been requested to meet with the mayor in private.

       Oliver nodded and motioned for us to follow. He, Thea, Felicity, and Percy led the way after the man directed us where to go. Percy obviously thinking about monsters attacking because he was around so many electronics. Thea stepped through the curtained doorway and screeched, I noticed Percy's hand move towards his pants pocket. I peeked through the curtain and saw her running towards a man I assumed was the mayor.

       "Roy!"

       "Thea!"

       The mayor, Roy, picked her up and spun her around before kissing her.

       Oliver cleared his throat, "Roy it's great to see you, but if you could refrain from doing that in front of me that be greatly appreciated.

       'Roy' immediately stood up straighter and saluted? Oliver. "Yes, sir."

       Felicity rolled her eyes, "Oliver, go easy on him. They haven't seen each other in like 4 years. And besides, we all missed. You did especially and you can't deny it."

       Looking around I noticed we weren't the only confused people in the room, there was also Curtis, Renee, and Dinah.

       "Guys, this is Roy Harper, a great friend. He was part of the team before he posed as the 'Ar-'"

       John was brought to an abrupt stop as Oliver cleared his throat and looked towards us.

       But of course, Percy spoke up, "No, no, no, John. Please continue your explanation. we're part of Oliver's family, right? And families don't keep secrets from each other. I sure as Hades want to know what happened, and why he hasn't been seen in 4 years."

       If looks could kill, Percy would have killed them all. But Oliver probably would have damaged Percy with his look as well.

       "Perseus Oliver Jackson! You do not talk that way! And Paul and I can take care of ourselves, your 16th birthday should have taught you that."

       Then it was Oliver's turn to question us, I think I just made this bad situation a whole lot worse.
