Star Labs Hanger
Morning
"I can't believe you guys escaped an alien spaceship, key words alien spaceship. I have questions," Cisco said as he led Ray, Nate and The Avengers into the hanger.
"It can wait. What's our status?" Steve asked as they walked up to Barry, Oliver, Wanda, Sara, Stein, and Kara.
"Nothing since The Dominators paid their little visit to mess with our heads," Barry said.
"Why would they do that?" Nate wondered.
"What if they were trying to pit us against each other to gain Intel about Metahumans?" Ray suggested.
"Well, Metas pose the greatest threat to their invasion. It would make sense they'd want to get to know their enemies," Kara noted.
"By kidnapping people. Perhaps they were searching your minds for potential Metahuman vulnerabilities," Stein suggested.
"Way ahead of you there pal," Clint told him.
"I think it's time we return the favor," Oliver said.
"Kidnapping a Dominator? Count me in," Clint said eagerly.
"Ever since we found off that one ship, they've been in short supply," Barry told them.
"Actually, I think I know where to find one," Nate said as he walked over to one of the computers in the hanger. "I've been reviewing some of the old army footage of their first encounter with The Dominators. And I think I pegged the fight to-"
The various screens behind him showed the footage of what looked like one of the old war films from the Second World War.
"Redmond, Oregon. 1951," Nate finished and they watched as a Dominator appeared on screen.
"You're suggesting that we travel back to 1951, abduct a Dominator, and interrogate it to determine their intentions?" Stein asked incredulously.
"They kidnapped us. Seems fair," Sara shrugged.
"Count me in. I've got a score to settle with these guys," Clint said, pulling out his bow and giving it a whirl for show.
"Time travel. I'm definitely in," Cisco grinned.
"Hold on, Professor Stein and Caitlin have been working on a way to take down The Dominators. They could probably use your help," Barry argued.
"Come on man, it's time travel," Cisco said as he looked over at Barry hopefully.
"Alright, fine," Barry gave in, not wanting to argue when his and Cisco's relationship was still so fragile. "But take Wally with you."
"I'll take Amaya and Mick to," Nate offered and Barry nodded.
"Think I'll tag along on this one to," Clint said as he followed after Nate and Cisco.
"And the new president called, which would be cool under different circumstances, but she wants to meet with us," Barry explained to the remaining group.
"We should bring Oliver, Nat, Sara, and Ray as backup," Steve suggested and Barry nodded in agreement.
"What about me, I can be backup," Kara said and Barry and Steve exchanged a look.
"Not a bad idea," Barry said and Steve shrugged.
"Your call," Steve said simply.
"Barry, can I talk to you for a minute?" Oliver asked, gesturing over to a corner.
Oliver walked over without waiting for a response. Steve, Kara and Wanda shot Barry confused looks but he shrugged before following after Oliver.
"What's going on?" Barry asked as he reached Oliver.
"I would like to minimize Kara's involvement in this," Oliver said to Barry's surprise.
"Why? Because she's an alien?" Barry asked incredulously, finding it hard to believe Oliver was xenophobic.
"No, because she's an unknown variable in this fight," Oliver said.
"She's also our biggest gun. You don't bench the strongest payer before a big game… That's football, right?" Barry asked and Oliver sighed.
"Barry, I don't know a whole lot about her and from what you've told me, you don't either. The last time I gave someone I didn't know the benefit of the doubt, everyone paid a high price," Oliver said grimly and Barry was quiet as the ghost of Laurel Lance stood between them.
"Kara is not Andy Ollie. You don't have to trust her, but I'm asking you to trust me. Can you do that?" Barry asked.
"You know I do," Oliver said immediately.
"Good. Well, I trust Kara. And I think it's a good idea to bring her along. Alright?" Barry said and Oliver sighed.
"Alright. But I'll be watching her," Oliver said before walking passed Barry.
"Okay, Kara, you're coming with us. Wanda, Sam, keep an eye on things here and tell everyone what's going on," Barry ordered.
Redman, Oregon, 1951
Morning
"Whoa," Clint said, swaying on his feet as he stood up after the time ship landed.
"Severe time jumps can cause nausea, temporary deafness, and Linguistic disorientation. You alright?" Nate asked.
"I'll be fine," Clint said as he pulled out his bow. "Let's go bag us a Dominator."
"You two," Mick said as he gestured to Wally and Cisco. "Watch the ship. We're gonna go kidnap an alien."
"Okay, I know I did not just through time so we could stay on the ship." Cisco said angrily as he and Wally stood up.
"Speedy, you're staying with the ship," Mick told him.
"Are you serious?" Wally asked incredulously.
"Looks like it kiddies. See you later," Clint said with a smirk as he, Mick, Amaya, and Nate exited the ship.
Outside a little later, Mick and Clint are eying Nate's suit.
"You trying to copy Cap?" Clint asked.
"Ray made it for me," Nate explained.
"You look like a star spangled idiot," Mick said bluntly and Clint laughed.
"Oh god, that's a good one. I'm gonna use that, thank you for that. That is never going away," Clint chuckled.
"We need to find the army," Amaya said.
No sooner had the words left her mouth than the sound of an explosion pierced the air. The four of them raced towards the sound and ended up on a ledge, overlooking the battle between The Dominators and the army.
"I think we found them," Nate said grimly.
Clint's hand tightened around his bow as he saw men, good men, he was sure, who were fighting for their country, get slaughtered. But he knew he couldn't save them, because it would be changing history.
"Let's grab one and get out of here," Clint said gruffly.
"Just looking for one of the weaker ones in the herd," Mick said, intimidated by The Dominators but trying not to show it.
"I don't think there are any weaker ones," Amaya noted.
Back on The Waveridder, Cisco was lying down on the holotable as Wally paced.
"Wonder what's going on out there," Wally mused.
"It's a real life Spielberg movie and we're stuck in here," Cisco said glumly.
"You okay?" Wally asked as he looked over at him.
"I don't know. I've got the worst case FAMO while everyone else is out there kidnapping an alien. And…"
"And you're still holding a grudge against Barry," Wally said and took Cisco's silence as confirmation. "You know he didn't mean for what happened to Dante to happen. And come on, cut him some slack, his dad was just murdered in front of him."
"I know okay?!" Cisco snapped as he got to his feet. "I know he didn't mean for Dante to die and I know his dad had just died! But I don't know how to get passed this! I don't!"
Cisco turned away, leading on the holotable.
"I used to dream about all this, time travel, aliens…now it just feels weird," Cisco said softly.
"Hey, you're talking to the guy who just found his dad and sister a year ago and now has superpowers. I get it. But it's just gonna get weirder. We should lean on the people in our lives," Wally told him.
"I don't think I can do that," Cisco sighed.
Back with Clint and The Legends, the foursome watched as The Dominators dragged the corpses of the army off before they were beamed up.
"They're running away?" Clint asked confused.
"Why are they attacking us then leaving?" Nate asked just as confused.
"It's an RIF mission-Reconnaissance in force," Amaya explained.
"Ah look, a straggler," Mick smirked as they saw a Dominator reach for one of the corpses.
"I've got this," Clint smirked as he reached into his quiver.
Clint notched his way and took aim at The Dominator. After waiting a few seconds, Clint fired. The Dominator must have sensed the arrow, because it reached out and caught it. Clint smirked before pressing a button on his bow. The Dominator screamed in pain as it was electrocuted before it fell on its back, clearly disoriented.
"And that's how it's done kids," Clint joked.
"Not bad Robin Hood," Mick said as the four of them made their way down to get The Dominator.
Once they reached the Dominator, Clint picked up his arrow, putting it back in his quiver as Mick and Nate prepared to pick up The Dominator. However a voice spoke up behind them.
"Well done," A man in a suit with slicked back hair said as he approached them, surrounded by men in suits that aimed their guns at Clint and The Legends. "I see you've managed to catch us a specimen."
"Sorry, this one's not for you. You'll have to wait for the next one to take back to area fifty-one," Clint quipped as he eyed the men with guns.
"How do you know about area fifty-one?" The man demanded as he eyed Clint suspiciously.
"If I told you, I'd have to kill you," Clint joked.
"Who are you?" Amaya asked.
"Just a humble civil servant," the man said as he pulled out a badge.
As Nate held Mick back, Clint eyed the man wearily. This man reminded him far too much of Ross for Clint's liking. When the men began firing tranq darts at them, Clint was ready.
While the others were taken down quickly, Clint grabbed the dark aimed for him and threw it towards the man nearest to him. It him in the shoulder and the man went down as Clint fired an arrow at another man. It got him in the shoulder, just a regular arrow. As the man went down, Clint was hit from behind with a tranq dart. Clint fell to his knees, his vision already blurry as he dropped his bow. This was one powerful sedative, Clint thought before it all went black.
