Oliver is sitting alone in the dark on the very street gargoyle had beaten him
Been here a couple hours or is it minutes? Doesn't matter il get through this always been a fighter and I will find out why I'm here and why this bastard is doing this.
Might as well get some rest he thought
As Oliver slept
He dreamed of his time as a boy playing with a now and arrow shooting little animals and laughing as they bled out
Then a quick flash to him being washed up on the island
He was screaming at the sky for the first few weeks cursing god and every other thing on the planet
"No"! "I'm not that man"!!
He woke up to the overhead lights of the make shift city in a daze
He jolted up and knocked his second arrow
"Make this count" he thought
As he passed an alleyway he saw a figure
It was gargoyle looking as devilish as the last time
"Hey pal ready to stop being a vague a$$hole and tell me what's going on"? As he aimed the arrow at gargoyles eye
"Oh Oliver so impatient and weak like you always were"
"If you must know you weren't the only one on the island I was there watching you"
"Yeah I gathered but who are you"???
"I don't have a name not anymore I simply observe just know I was man who worked to the bone his entire life only to be subjects to ten years of hell on that island"
"And you hate me because why"? I got off early?
"NO"! "I hate you because you thrived while I suffered"!!
He then charged at Oliver ferociously throwing jabs
Oliver dodged them leaped back and fired the arrow at gargoyles stony arm
It hit him and stuck out of the stone barely an inch deep
Gargoyle yanked it out and tossed it aside
"Oh dammit" Oliver said
Gargoyle charged again slamming Oliver into the brick alleyway wall
He powerful pummeled Oliver against it
Oliver felt a wet snap at his side and a sharp pain
Oliver kicked him off and brought his other leg around for a roundhouse
Gargoyle caught his leg swung him around digging his claws into Oliver's leg and threw him across the alleyway
He walked over to Oliver and started beating his face
After about a minute of pounding he then said
"You are a child unfit to protect anyone you'll be dead by tomorrow"and walked around the
corner
Oliver was bleeding from his mouth and nose nursing his broken rib he crawled to a nearby building
He hobbled up the stairs of the empty two story
And fell to the ground his head throbbing with pain
"Not that man..I'm not that man...I am better now..."
He said as he passed out
Hope you enjoyed let me know what you think!
