Enjoy!!!

It's been seven days and Laurel has been by Felicity's side and Kelly's. She entertained Trixie teaching her new words and she helped Peter and Anna with the conviction of Adam Silvers and kept Kelly in check during the trial.

Mouse flew from Afghanistan once he heard the news and he was in the trail with Vicky and Ethan who three evident that Adam Silvers was the head of the terrorist attack and the testify against him for many similar cases that Peter and Anna were puzzle over for years.

Adam Silvers was put behind bars for life.

Oliver and Sara were angry to Laurel, Tommy and Felicity but what they didn't understand was how Felicity was linked with those people. They searched any database they could but found nothing!

"Maybe she met them in college?" Diggs suggested.

"What about Tommy?" Sara exclaimed after hours of them being in active and just doing nothing.

"I mean we saw Tommy was working with the CPD...we search his name in a Military base....also we search the name Connor because don't tell me you didn't hear the guy telling Connor not to shoot and Tommy disobeyed him." Sara elaborated since both Diggs and Oliver stared at her confused.

Diggs then pulled a search and wrote the name Thomas Merlyn but nothing came up while as he typed Connor he pulled results of 100 Connors.

Oliver who was standing behind him pointed the first that wrote Connor Arsnestel but that didn't showed Tommy's photo.

After hours of searching Connors they reached the letter R where there was only one result; Connor Rhodes.

Oliver and Sara held their breaths as Diggs pressed the mouse on it and showed Tommy's picture just how Oliver had seen him when Waller sent him to Starling City all those years ago the only difference was that he wore a military uniform while another one underneath it showed him with military uniform underneath a doctor's coat.

"What the hell?" Diggs murmured as they scrolled through the file.

"It says that Tommy worked as a diplomat in hostage exchanges and he is a very well trained sniper and undercover op. He used to pose as a civilian and a defenseless doctor but once he was in...Oliver...are you sure you want to hear this?" Diggs read out loud but stopped when he reached the point where he was reminded of Oliver's stories of him being trained under Waller.

"Yes, get over with it!" Oliver exclaimed betrayed and sad.

"There was this operation where terrorists had hit a school and as him and his team of doctors worked on the patients they realized that the girls were disappearing from hospital beds...when his patient Ermine Zaverous was taken he followed the trail of blood on to a truck he hid in it along with seven more girls between the age of 8 to 19. Once he was discovered he was beaten badly but they used to move him around so he learnt the layout of the base and used it a month later to free the girls. Oliver here says that Connor killed seventeen men with his bare hands...they forced him to attend hurt terrorists and used the medical stuff they gave him to kill them. After that Ethan Choi and Vicky Glass took him and trained him to become a diplomat. He spent four years in Riyadh and then took a year off returned to US soil then after the Undertaking where he lost a few friends he was diploid to Syria for a year but then he was again diploid to Chicago where he is staying right now." Diggs kept on reading but once he was finished he stare at Sara and Oliver shocked expressions.

"He is with the military?" Sara asked and Diggs said;

"It seems so." Diggs said sadly.

"Why did he join? He could have just stayed a doctor." Oliver wondered in sadness.

"I don't know, Oliver. Maybe you should try talking to him. He is your friend." Diggs advised him.

"No. I don't think he sees me as his friend otherwise he would have told me when I returned from the island and if I'm not mistaken I slept with his girlfriend right before he died...well he didn't but whatever happened to him. Diggs, I don't know how to approach it." Oliver broke down as he was hugged by Sara.

"I know how hard this is. If that helps I will help you open a conversation." Diggs volunteered as he smiled softly at Oliver and he nodded.

In Chicago: Three Weeks Later

Felicity's condition was getting better and better the past two days when suddenly Felicity's heartbeat picked up and Felicity woke up.

She's been comatose for two months now and her spine was getting better and better but two days ago her spine was completely healed.

She's been awake for three days now and her family and friends haven't been happier.

"How are you feeling, mum?" Trixie asked as Ermine and her were drawing and Felicity was reading a book.

"I've been better my chest is hurting but I'll be fine." Felicity smiled at her daughter and her friend.

Connor had undergone trail to legalize his name as Connor Rhodes and by his side were his cousin Claire and his uncle Cornelius supporting him on the decision.

Cornelius was excited to meet Ermine and Claire couldn't contain herself when she met her and hugged her catching the little girl off guard.

She was ten years old and had gone through so much and she wasn't all that familiar with physical contact but ever since she was rescued by Connor, Vicky and Ethan made it their mission to teach the girl how to react normally amongst crowds.

Once Connor was legally named like that he filed request for Ermine's adoptions that took only two weeks to be picked up and a week to finalize.

Now Ermine was officially named Ermine Zaverous Rhodes.

The little girl was really persuasive since she forced Cornelius, Connor and Claire to sit down and solve their differences because she said;

"I don't want to be adopted by a broken family...I had enough of similar drama."

It sounded bitchy but the adults knew she was right and they did.

After a dinner full of shouts, cries and later understanding the coast was clear for the Rhodes and Ermine was pleased.

"Miss Felicity, did you feel okay?" Ermine asked worried as she witnessed Felicity rubbing her chest where the she was run through the iron pole. Trixie had gone to the toilet so it was her and Felicity in the room.

"Um...yes, little one..." Felicity struggled to answer but forced a smile before her eyes rolled back and went into cardiac arrest and epileptic seizure at the same time.

"DAD!!! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP HER!!" Ermine's pleas made Laurel who was nearing the room holding junk food for the kids to run to see what was wrong.

"Oh! My God!" Laurel breathed in shock as Ermine run to her and hug her crying while Trixie stare at her mother's body and the doctors who tried to sedate her.

Little Trixie was in shock but as Laurel made a move to touch her shoulder Trixie jumped away and run out of the hospital.

Greg who saw the whole thing reassured Laurel that he will talk to his niece.

"Trixie!" Greg yelled in repeat as he run around the block but found nothing until he heard distant sobs and found Trixie behind a dumpster on her knees crying and ripping pages from her notebooks and throwing them on the street.

"Mum is going to die too! I better erase her from my stories like I did to Momma then it won't hurt as much!" She mumbled between sobs as she ripped page after page. But Greg presence made her looked up at Greg and Greg had to keep himself from flinching away at the sorrow in the little girl's eyes.

This girl had lost her mother figure twice.

Felicity found herself back at the white limbo again but this time in seconds she was transferred to a house that is forever scratched in her memory; the house she saw her mother getting shot...executed.

She moved in the isle of the house where her grandpa's room, hers and her mum's and the bathroom were located. She looked at the wooden floor on the house and instantly remembered how red blood stood against the light brown color.

She shivered. That was her nightmare.

Then she came into a halt when she saw a blond little girl around the age of two struggled with a big suitcase as she tried to bring it out of the childish room.

Felicity covered her mouth as she sobbed remembering what will follow next.

"Mama! I can't! Please help me!" The little girl pleaded as she struggled but her mother's sobs made her froze and look at the three men dressed in black. The muscular man who seemed to be the leader held her mother at gun point while the other two males held machine guns and they aimed it at the little girl.

The suitcase fell from the girl's hands onto to the floor making the man on the left side to shoot, unloading his machine gun on the wall as the girls shrieked and covered her ears and head. The family portrait was run through bullets and on the floor broken.

The girl's mum was crying while whispering reassuring words to the little one.

"Everything will be fine, sweat pea! Take deep breaths!"

"NO! I DON'T WANT TO RELIEVE IT!" Felicity yelled in tears as she watched.

"SHUT UP BITCH!" The leader growled and yanked the little girl's mother from the hair and made her face him. The little girl gasped at the sound of her mother's gasp of pain then everything happened so fast.

A bullet went through the mother's head as the blond 29 year old fell like a sack of potatoes on the floor and the screams of the little girl echoed as blood splashed on her face along with Felicity's screams.

The three men stare wide eyed at the girl who rushed to her dead mother's side and tried to pick up the blood and put it in the wound again.

"Please please please! Mama no!" The girl repeated again and again.

The men stare in shock of how the girl before them was in denial.

"You know the rule. No survivors!" The leader said to the man on his right who still possessed a loaded machine gun.

The man 3 aimed it at the girl who looked at them as she was breathing hard now. She slowly stood up and with a heated glare stare one by one the men before them.

Suddenly she started screaming and yelling hitting herself and pulling her hair out and scratching her face.

The men were freaked out since the little girl's blond hair was tainted with blood along with her face.

"DUDE! The girl lost it! Let's go before cops arrive!" The man 3 said freaked out and made a run to the door and soon followed by the man 2 while the Leader stayed and watched as the girls continued to yell and scream.

He had a shocked face but soon run out too. They didn't make it far since Olivia Benson's team caught them.

Then Felicity saw her younger self stop the yelling and slowly dragged herself closer to her mother's body and continue pick up handful of blood and putting in the wound trying to keep it in, unsuccessfully.

Then Olivia Benson slowly walked in the apartment and stare in shock the little Felicity.

"The blood won't stay in, Aunt Olivia. It won't!" Little Felicity sobbed as Olivia picked her up in her arms and took her away from the dead body allowing the paramedics to take care of it.

Then the scene changed to the police station where Olivia talked to Daniel Charles and Hank Voight.

"She is in shock. She won't speak just stare at us." Olivia said in sadness as she looked at the girl in the bench.

Her little legs hanged as she moved them back and forth studying the policemen walking around with a blank expression.

Felicity approached cautiously and sat next to her younger self and cried.

"You'll get through this. We will get through this." She mumbled as she put the hand on her chest where the wound was.

The scene did changed again back to the dinner her and Mouse had sat before.

Felicity saw Olivia and her younger self eating ice cream and waffles.

"How are you feeling today?" Olivia asked kindly younger Felicity who licked her fingers since she had ice cream on them.

"Sad. Which is good because I feel something. Daniel is really good with me. I want to stay with him and his daughter Robyn." Younger Felicity answered back.

"That is going to take time but I'll try." Olivia said with a small smile.

The scene changed back to the house Felicity grew up in, Daniel's house.

"MUM! MUM! She is here!" A eight year old Robyn rushed down the stairs and opened the door and hugged little Felicity.

Little Felicity was now four years old, she's been living with Olivia for two years.

"Hello, Ro!" Felicity giggled at she hugged back Robyn.

Older Felicity chuckled at the scene.

"Hello, Miss." Felicity said and Robyn's mum smiled with a few tears in her eyes.

"Call me Agatha, sweet pea!" Agatha said with a warm smile but Felicity's smile wiped off when she heard the sweet pea.

"Honey, don't call her that." Daniel said awkwardly.

"It's okay, Daniel. I have to get used to hearing again. Mama used to call me sweet pea...she did before she got a bullet in her head." Felicity explained in sadness and hanged her head low.

"It's okay! I'm sorry." Agatha apologized as she hugged Felicity who started crying again.

The scene changed again back to the teenage forms of Felicity and Robyn at school.

"How can you call her you sister? She is black and you are white!" One of the Jocks mocked the two girls and Felicity let a calm breath before she marched up to the Jock who yelled that and punched him.

"That is none of your business, Andrews!" Felicity hissed as she pinned him on the wall and held him by the neck.

Hank Voight started teaching her how to fight in case the men that killed her mum found her and kidnapped her.

"WOW!" A bunch of kids exclaimed in shock when Felicity let Andrews down and turned her back down but before she could walk away Andrews attempted to pull her hair but Felicity's reflexes caught up with her and grabbed his hand and twisted behind his back and then kicked the back of his knees making him kneel and then let him go but before she turn her back to him she punched him again sending him on the ground.

Cheers and whistles were heard as Felicity rubbed her knuckles and smirked at the crowd and then smiled at Robyn's direction who held tightly their books and smiled back at her sister.

"Thanks, Ro!" Felicity said as she took her books and walked away from the crowd with satisfied smiles.

"Thank you for defending my honor." Robyn said quietly in class.

"That's what the sisters are for, right?" Felicity said back smiling. Then both girls focused in History class.

Older Felicity smiled as the scene faded away and Felicity found herself back in the white limbo once again.

The doctors tried to stabilize Felicity with no success until she flat lined before Will Halstead started performing CPR her heartbeat came back not strongly but it was back.

"That is a miracle!" Will commented as everyone in the room let a sigh of relief to be heard.

"Will she be okay now?" Kelly asked worried from the entrance of the room and Will nodded.

"Yes, since she brought herself back...unknown how.."Will commented troubled as he continue checking her chart. 

Robyn and Greg with Trixie and Kelly sat in the hospital cafeteria waiting for further news when Daniel with Sarah came too and pulled two more chairs and sat with them in silence as Sarah rubbed Robyn's back and Daniel nodded at Greg.

"Have you told her about you being her biological brother?" Daniel asked Greg suddenly catching him off guard.

"No. Didn't have the time." Greg mumbled in guilt as he continue watching Trixie who desperately tried to glue back the pages of her notebook.

"But you will because mum needs to know she is not the last of her bloodline, right? Laurel taught me the meaning of bloodline and I think it's fitting." Trixie's low voice made everyone stare at her in shock with the use of words but smiled softly when Trixie explained who taught her the word bloodline.

"Laurel is a good girl, I like her." Trixie said again smiling now that she had the adults looking at her.

"We do too." Robyn said softly as she ruffled with Trixie's hair and then kissed her head.

"Uncle Connor doesn't like her though...I see it in his eyes. He is sad whenever she is around. Why is that?" Trixie asked the adults before her as everyone averted their eyes from the girl who huffed and went back to her task.

"She is back, people!" Joey rushed to them and everyone run to her room to see her sleeping.

"Dad!" Trixie and Ermine yelled at the same time both girls running to their dads.

"Hey! You never called me dad before today!" Connor commented as the ten year old hugged him tight.

"Where is Laurel?" Trixie asked suddenly and Connor sighed as he held Ermine in his arms and turn to Trixie.

"She went back to Starling City. She needed to work." Connor answered shortly and with a sad look in his eyes.

Robyn got a little jealous so she walked over to Connor and kissed his cheek marking her territory and Connor hugged her with his free hand as Ermine kissed her cheek.

They were a family. Connor was thankful!

Severide Household Late the same night:

"Dad, will mum be okay?" Trixie asked late at night as Kelly put her to bed and was getting ready to read her a story.

"Don't know but if she won't...I don't know, sweets." Kelly said with a tired tone as he tightens the sheets around the fragile form of Trixie.

"I don't want her to die she is the only mum I have left. Who is going to tell me about girl stuff when I grow up?" Trixie asked sadly at her dad who stare at her in so much sadness that Trixie hugged him.

"I don't know...I really don't! I wish I did." Kelly said as he hugged back his daughter and stayed like that for awhile.

After both of them were ready to let go of each other Trixie asked one more question that stopped Kelly on his track.

"Does God really exist? Because if He does then He wouldn't take my mums away from me...He shouldn't be this cruel, right?"

"Maybe He is trying to teach you something." Kelly tried to keep his composure before breaking down as he walked out of Trixie's room.

Rhodes Household the same time:

"Good night, dad and Robyn!" Ermine said as she stood at the doorway of Connor's and Robyn's room dressed in her nightgown.

"Good night!" Both adults sang together with soft smiles.

"Oh! Robyn can I call you mum?" Ermine asked before she left catching Robyn off guard once again.

"Um...I don't know." Robyn answered hesitantly.

"It's okay...I know you two aren't married or plan to get anytime soon but it's weird calling Connor my dad and you just Robyn, you know." Ermine hurried to explain to the woman before her.

"It's okay if that makes you feel comfortable then heck yes I want to be your mum!" Robyn answered with a smile as she walked up to Ermine and hugged her.

"Then good night mum and dad! See you in the morning! I'll pray for Felicity...we might not have the same faith but no one deserves what she is going through!" Ermine said as she walked away from the room leaving two shocked adults.

"How a ten year old and a five year old are wiser than the whole adult population of the Earth?" Robyn wondered at loud as she covered herself with the duvets and Connor copied her sighing.

"Don't know...too tired to think! Good night, love!" Connor mumbled tiredly as he kissed Robyn and then turned around and fall asleep.

Robyn stayed awake applying her hand cream on her hands as she was lost in her own thoughts staring at the blank wall before her.
