Return to Normal. Sort of. With Mia, Michael, Lois, Sam and Dean.

Oliver sat heavily on the steps of Watchtower, his shoulders slumped as he waited for Lois and the kids to show up. Sam and Dean had returned a few minutes before, and while Dean was leaning against the wall, Sam was staring at the computer equipment with something akin to fascination on his face.

He drew in a breath and glanced up as he heard Lois and the kids making their way into the room, and he rose to his feet slowly, despite his body's protests.

"Lois."



(Tag order Lois, Michael, Mia, Ollie, Dean and Sam?)

"That or she knew something we don't about the ones that took him. What would they want with her? What did they want with you?" She watched Oliver carefully, still not convinced that he didn't need a hospital or at least to be lying down somewhere.

Oliver drew in a breath and let it out slowly. "They wanted the Blur's identity," he told them. "My guess is Chloe knew that. She wasn't going to put him in danger. So now we need a plan." He didn't quite meet Mia's eyes.

Lois looked between the three of them and marched over one of the computers, "can't these things show us what she was searching for? At least we can have a better idea."

"Dean said they only found out she was tracking Ollie," Michael shut his eyes, worried. "If Sam couldn't figure out where she is..."

"Then we'll just have to do it ourselves." Mia let herself sound more confident than she felt and put a hand on Michael's arm, squeezing briefly. "Some whacko group going around snatching superheros has to be on someone's radar or watchlist. We should call the league."

At that, Oliver froze, holding his breath for a moment. "Checkmate," he whispered, turning to face her, his eyes wide.

Lois stopped trying to log into Chloe's computer and frowned, "isn't that the place Tess was working for?"

Michael frowned as well, shifting a little closer to Mia. "They already tried that, though. Why do it again?"

[need2speed.livejournal.com]

"Maybe because it didn't work the last time? It's not like we ever really got rid of them for good."

"Mia's right. They didn't get what they wanted the first time around, it makes sense that they'd try again." His jaw tightened. "And even more sense that they'd want Chloe."

Oliver turned and headed toward the door.

"Oliver, sit down." Lois said sternly, her hands on her hips, if Chloe wasn't there to try and pull them together, she'd try her best to because they wouldn't find Chloe otherwise.

"Woa, Uncle O, you're not going anywhere," Michael moved forward, catching his shoulder. The man was in no condition to be up and around. And with Chloe gone, the last thing they needed was for something else to happen to him.

Mia shook her head and caught up with him, glad to see Michael was stopping his progress as well. The last thing they needed was for Oliver to get himself killed looking for Chloe. "I can go see Tess and pick her brain about Checkmate. You need to be in bed, Ollie. Or at least directing from a chair safe and sound inside of Watchtower."

"You guys can't really expect me to sit here and do nothing when those bastards have Chloe!" He shook his head, staring at them in disbelief.
