章節 71: Funeral & mayor
Faster than my eyes could see Lucas gripped slades throat and held him against a tree, "do not utter another word, Slade," his voice sent chills down my spine, and I briefly remembered the Lucas that inhabited the island
I could physically see Lucas's grip tighten around Slade's throat and I knew Slade couldn't do anything about it.
*swoosh* the sound of an object much like an arrow flew through the night sky and Lucas moved out of the way causing the arrow to stab into Slade instead.
Lucas looked around as Slade pulled the arrow from his stomach, "how did you get an arrow like that?" He asked Slade while walking slowly I could tell he was looking around the trees for another machine that could have arrows set up to shoot
"Asked around for something that can hurt your kind," Slade said with a small smirk
"It wouldn't have killed me, maybe stung a bit," Lucas said calmly
"Then why did you move," Slade retorted
"Funny thing about instinct even when you're not in mortal peril it can still cause you to act out in a way to save yourself from pain," Lucas shook his head ruefully
Slade then took out a weird wooden cross and began to speak, "magic I'm not a personal big fan of it but when dealing with creatures like you one had to prepare I hope you understand Lu-"
Lucas blurred again I could almost see into the future of him ripping out Slade's heart.
*boom* a golden ball surrounded Slade stopping Lucas's strike.
"-as, I was going to say Lucas before you rudely attacked me," Slade smirked slightly
"Where did you get this," Lucas growled I could hear the irritation in his voice
"A new ally sent it to me," Slade replied
-Lucas's pov -
I used my magic reading ability on the cross, it was specifically made to keep all creatures like me out of it, I could probably destroy it right now if I tried hard enough but, I can see the road he is going down and he already finished saying my name.
My sister's eyes were already widened with realization.
"Lucas?" she whispered in shock looking at me
All of us with superhuman senses heard her though, and I knew Slade already got what he wanted. Might as well let him tell her about me, ripping off the band-aid in a way.
"Oh what Thea you didn't know? Your brother Lucas Queen is Azreal, not only that he is quite famous among the survivors of the island," Slade continued with a smile
"Lucas?" Thea said I could tell she was having a hard time processing this
"Why is he famous you might be wondering, it's simple really Lucas is notorious for the amount of bodies he accumulated on the island, he quite literally painted the ground RED! He consumed and killed so many people Lucas was thought to be a wild ANIMAL!"
"The man you call a brother quite literally ended enough lives to consider him a savant, a master of the human body someone that can kill you with a fucking pine cone! It's brilliant!"
"THAT IS YOUR BROTHER!" Slade announced with a magical grin
I could tell his mind was slowly devolving he needs help but, it is not my problem anymore.
"Slade, you will come to regret ruining this relationship we had I swear by that," I said calmly
I wasn't angry, sad, or glad Thea now knows of my past, I think I'm more neutral.
"You ruined our relationship the second you threatened me, Lucas," Slade retorted and began to walk away
I didn't chase him instead I walked over to Oliver and ripped apart the ropes that bound him.
He still gets to keep his secret identity in front of Thea for today.
"Lucas," Oliver began to talk but I cut him off,
"Just focus on Thea. Also Moira's funeral I have to get sworn in,"
-narrator pov -
The night passed quickly for the remaining members of the Queen family. Thea was quite still almost as if she was in contemplation. Oliver was moving quickly to arrange his mother's funeral while at the same time thinking of a way to approach Thea about last night's big reveal about their brother.
Lucas was sworn in as mayor, and the people were celebrating but the crushing news yet at the same time amazing news for some of Moira Queen's passing seemed to damper the win.
As time ticked until the funeral starts Lucas began to make his way over to the Queen estate.
-Thea pov -
Lucas Queen, my favorite brother. He always knows how to comfort me, how to make me happy.
He would read to me as a kid, though he wasn't as big as a nerd he is now.
Or is he even a nerd?
Since the island, he has been distant but I thought our relationship as siblings grew even further.
But, now I don't even know if I know him anymore. Like has been lying to me about more than his secret identity?
I don't even want to unpack what that Slade guy said. Has he really killed that many people? And consumed?
I don't know if I can see my brother again and not think about the man no the beast Slade described.
Oh, and to top everything off my mom is dead. Killed by the same man who told me about my brother's true identity.
*knock*
*knock*
"Come in," I said softly
*creek* the door opened to reveal Oliver
"Hey speedy," he said with a small sad smile
I didn't reply I just sat quietly as he joined me sitting on my bed.
"The Island was a horrible place truly it was. Thea my hands aren't clean, we were tortured and broken there. Lucas has his own story to tell which I'm sure he will now I just want you to know Lucas and I have both grown from the island as better people. The Lucas that first came home with me that very first day is not the same Lucas we have today as I'm not the sake Oliver," Oliver spoke with a passion I haven't heard from him in a while
Finally, he opened up about something but, I couldn't even seem to care at this point my mind was so jumbled and confused.
Angry and sad.
What am I going to do?
-end -
A/n: in the tv show Slade was shown to be mentally unstable, so I wanted to expand on that with him talking about the past Lucas.
Now Ik what your thinking "this author guy is shitty with updates" yeah tbh I am rn real life is hard af these days so yeah.
