Revelations of the Past

//LEGENDS OF TOMORROW\\


//REVELATIONS OF THE PAST\\


The large black cloak covered her face as she stood in the shadows. The people around her chanted as the body was lowered down into the liquid.


She stood silently, the cloak draped over her body covering every inch of her being.


Suddenly the lowering stopped and every member went silent, waiting in anticipation.


A body jumps from the pit and slowly the girl lifts her black hood up and off of her face.


The bloodlust is now present deep in the mans eyes, and the girl could see it.


He growled, like an animal, and began to charge at the leader.


Two guards came and grabbed his arms restraining him from moving any further.


"What is this madness!?" The leader yells as he is furious with the results.


"What is wrong with him? Somebody cure him immediatly!" The leader roars.


"Nobody knows how, Sir!" A soldier yelled from the sidelines.


"I do." A voice says from the shadows. All bodies turn to face the voice, swords are immediatly drawn as the girl removed her hood.


"You were banished. Kill her." The leader yells upon seeing the persons face.


She pulls out a sword and defends herself from her first attacker.


One attacker down, then two, then three. All the way up to 7 before she yells "Enough!"


The assassins hesitate for a moment and allow her to speak, "Do you want your best assassin back or not?" She directs towards the leader.


"Halt!" He yells in Arabic.


"How?" He speaks once more.


"By using me." Erin says.


"I've said it before and i will say it again, there is nothig physically wrong Miss. Cooper. We have found no progress in this over the past week." Stein tells Erin as she swings her legs over the edge of her bed.


Erin groans at the results. "Stein please just call me Erin."


Stein nods his head before saying, "Well then, Erin, there seems to be nothing physically abnormal."


"Then what the hell was it!?" She yells at nobody in particular, jumping off the bed and getting mad.


"Hey." Sara grabs her forearm, "We'll figure this out." She meets the brunettes eyes, calming her down.


"Okay." Erin replies, her voice barley above a whisper.


"If you'll excuse me, i must go check on our Captain." Stein determines while leaving the two.


Sara doesn't let go of Erin's arm. Neither one of them speaks as a minute passes.


Erin breaks the silence by saying "You can go play cards with Snart, i heard you promise him earlier."


Sara frowns. "I won't leave you."


As a response Erin shakes her head, "It's okay, really, go, i promise."


Sara's frown turns to a smile as she asks "Are you sure?"


When Erin nods her head, Sara places a kiss on the panthers cheek and runs off, smiling.


A smile forms on Erins face as she watches the woman she loves go off to play with a new-found best friend.


She back tracks her thoughts for a moment, realizing she called Sara the woman she loves. Yes. She loves Sara.


Erin walks out of the med bay and into her room.


Flopping herself on her bed, she stares at the ceiling, "Gideon, what's wrong with me?" She asks with a frown on her face.


"I am afraid i do not have the answer to that." The AI responds.


Erin sighs and lets out a grunt of frustration.


Erin lays on her bed, as she has done the past week, and thinks.


She thinks of how her sister must be doing back at home, maybe she found a nice guy and is just desperatly waiting for Erin to get back so she can introduce her to her new man.


She finds herself smiling at the thought of her little sister back at home, living a happy life, maybe even having a family of her own.


"Could all team members please report to the main brig." Rips voice invades her thoughts.


"Please be a mission." Erin mumbles to herself as she walks down the hall and towards the rest of the team.


"Somebody please tell me that you're calling us in here with something to do." Erin makes the team aware of her presence as she walks in.


"Alright Gideon, play the message." Rip says. Erin moves to stand beside Sara as a hologram woman appears infront of them.


"System malfunction." She says in a panick, "I'm stranded, unable to jump. Controls unresponisve. This is Captain Eve Baxter of the timeship Acheron, requesting critical rescue."


The lady dissapears as the message stops.


The team remains silent as they stare at eachother. Snart finally speaks up after about a minute.


"And we care about this chick why?" He asks.


"We don't." Rip says simply. Erin shrugs at the response, but Rip continues, "But the Acheron's computer will contain the current intel on Savage's whereabouts."


This peaks Erin's interests a little. "So we wouldn't be stuck on this ship for another week if we got this information?" She asks.


Rip nods his head allowing Erin to smile as she says "I'm in."


Sara tosses her a look, to which she responds with a simple shrug.


The attention then turns back to Rip as he speaks again, "Gideon, set a course for the Acheron's position in deep space."


"Yes, Captian." The AI responds instantly.


Each member begins to take their respective seats while Martin comments on their ability to travel into deep space, saying it is "Astonishing."


"What's astonishing is that we're acting as road side assistance for the people who's chasing us." Snart comments.


"Doesn't is seem a bit suspicious that this distress call just happened to reach us?" Jax questions. He then adds "How do we know this isn't a trap?"


"We don't." Rip takes his seat. "But what we do know is that Savage's trail has run cold, and unless Gideon can upload the data from the Acheron's computer-"


Mick cuts him off, "I'm in."


"You are?" Snart asks.


Erin could tell that ever since Star City they haven't been agreeing much.


"The sooner we end Savage, the sooner i get back to where i belong." Mick concludes.


"Prison?" Erin laughs at Steins comment.


"Any prison on Earth's better than this one proffesor." Mick shoots back.


"Gideon?" "Yes, Captain?"


"Engines to full throttle."


"Of course, Captain."


And with that, they're off to help their enemy.


They jolt back and forth, the force of the engines pushing each member into the back of their seat.


They're tossed to the left, then to the right, as Rip navigates his way through space.


They finally slow down and Erin can feel the ship as it begins to drift.


"Proffessor Stein, Mr. Jackson, would you care to join me on the boarding party?" Rip asks as he lifts his restraints and stands.


Erin, along with the rest of the team, begins to do the same.


"A chacne for an extra-vehicular maneuver? What could be more exciting." Stein muses.


Erin laughs quietly when Jax says "I could think of a few thing."


Mick begins to walk with the group. He is stopped by Snart and they argue for a few moments before Mick is walking to catch up with the boarding group.


"Aren't you gonna go with them?" Erin turns to face her blonde friend while Sara continues to talk, "You did say you were in to go."


Erin just shakes her head, "No, i'd rather be here with you." She smiles.


Sara smiles back and the pair turns back to Ray, Snart and Kendra.


Ray is seated in the captains chair with Kendra standing tensly behind him. Snart is chillaxed in one of the chairs and both girls soon join the three and stand by two of the chairs.


"Man I feel great!" Ray pipes up. "This is like my childhood dream come true!"


Ray then begins to act out some Star Trek or Star Wars stuff that Erin doesn't understand.


"Captains log. Stardate 8379. We're awaiting word from the away team aboard the Acheron." Ray pretends. "Ray you're such a nerd." Erin laughs.


"I hate to break it to you, but you're no Captain Kirk." Snart points out. Kendra then adds "You're Picard."


"But Picard was cautious, pontificating, sort of sexless." Ray argues.


"Tell that to Vash." Kendra says, she then starts to flirt, "And for the record, Picard was way hotter than Kirk." She winks at him causing Ray to blush.


"Ooh, Mick had it wrong. This ship isn't a prisoner, it's a torture chamber." Snart taunts.


Erin tosses Sara a look that says 'Talk to him'.


Sara nods knowingly and so Erin leaves the two to talk in private. Since she doesn't want to be stuck with the two lovebirds she decides to travel around the ship.


She walks down the hallway and past the bedrooms, into a hall she doesn't recognize.


Soon she finds herself in a familiar room, maybe one she had been to before, or maybe had a seen a room familiar to this one, she can't quite figure it out.


She has almost no time to think, the ship quickly jolts to the left and she grabs onto a metal cillinder to keep her steady. The ship jolts the other way and shakes for a few seconds before it goes steady again.


Erin cautiously takes her hand off of the silver object and walks further into the room.


She eyes the walls of the ship suspiciously to see if any more movement occurs.


When nothing else happens, she relaxes and lets out a sigh of relief.


Whatever happened must be over now, than-


Her thoughts become inturupted as a blast originates from the wall infront of her, throwing her back a few feet.


She lands on her back but the ringing in her ears manages to stop within minutes.


Erin lays on her back staring at the ceiling, not hurt, but not wanting to move. A hand blocks her vision within moments and she takes it as she realizes it's Snart offering her help.


She groans as she stands up.


"Thanks." She mumbles to the crook.


"You alright?" He drawls in his usal tone.


Erin nods her head and the criminal turns to the gaping hole that is now formed in the wall. "We have to cover this up before it kills us." Snart says.


"How?" Erin asks, confused.


Snart holds up his cold gun with a smirk on his face. The whirring sound fills the air, "This is how."


Erin smiles and then goes on to say "Alright lets do this."


Leonards gun makes another whirring sound as he charges it up and begins to fire at the hole, covering it with ice.


"Snart, th-" Sara pauses to look at Erin, "Were you in here when we got hit? Are you okay?" She asks worried.


"I'm fine, don't worry." Erin smiles back.


Sara double takes before she looks at Snart, "They need you back at the brig." She says.


"I have to finish this or else we all die." Snart argues back.


"Go." Sara insists. "Hand us your cold gun and we'll finish the job for you.


Snart hesitates but doesn't move.


"If you do not give me your cold gun i will make out with Erin right now and make you feel so uncomfortable." Sara says, full seriousness, and maybe a tiny bit of playfullness, etched on her face.


Snart takes a second before sighing and handing over his cold gun to the blonde assasin.


"Awee come on." Erin whines quietly.


Sara just smiles amd mouths "Later." Before winking and turning her attention back to the gun.


Snart's face contorts into one of disgust and he hands his gun to Sara, she takes over.


Snart begins to walk out of the room and stops just outside of the doorframe. He turns around and says, "That gun won't last much longer, be careful."


Sara nods her head and then the crook leaves.


"Awe, the cold hearted crook actually cares." Erin says.


Sara smiles and laughs, "I think he's just afraid we'll ruin his gun." Both girls let out small laughs.


Suddenly the gun stops working and the hole is not fully covered.


"Oh shit, we broke it." Erin says reffering to the gun.


A whoosing sound fills the room and both girls run towards the doors to find that they're closed.


"Well," Erin jokes, "we broke Snart's gun so either way we would've been dead."


Sara shakes her head and playfully nudges Erin.


"Not the time for jokes." Sara grumbles, but Erin can see the small smile that's forced its way onto Sara's face.


"Gideon, can you open these doors?" Sara says after trying to manually open them herself.


"The bulkhead doors are designed to remain shut until the breach is sealed." Gideon replies in her monotone voice.


Ray, Kendra and Snart show up at the door, "Well," Ray examines the door, "at least we know the doors work."


"Come on guys, can't you get them open, it's getting a little cold in here." Erin says moving her hands up and down her arms to keep them warm.


"How much time do we have," Kendra starts, she is stopped as Sara says "Until we're dead?"


Kendra gives the two girls a look of sorrow and pity.


To lighten the mood Erin jokes around, "Snart i think we might've broken your gun."


Sara quickly steps in befkre the criminal can answer, "No," she tosses Erin a playful look of demise, "it ran out of charge."


"Just hang tight," Ray says."we're gonna get you guys out of there."


The girls nod their heads and walk off to sit as far away from the hole as possible.


They sit down and cuddle close enough together, using eachothers body heat to keep themselves warm.


Erin shivers slightly and wraps an arm around Sara when she notices the assassins lips turning blue.


"You know, i never imagined this was how i would go out." Erin ponders through her chattering teeth.


"I figured it'd be in some big fight against Savage or an explosion when i'm helping Ollie out, you know, something like that, something big." She says.


"Yeah, not like in a cold engine room on a timeship." Sara laughs.


Her expression goes serious as she then says, "Back in 2046, you said you didn't want to hurt me like the last person you loved, what did you mean?"


Erin lets out a sigh, she knew this question was coming and she dreaded it big time.


"Uh, back when i left you and Team Arrow for a while, i uh, made a pit stop at the League, and well, i met someone." Erin cuddles closer to the blonde, she can no longer feel her fingers or her toes.


"His name was Noah, well Haris Almarmaa in the League, which means The Keeper. He well, he helped me fit in, trained me, taught me, laughed with me, he loved me." She wipes a tear before it can freeze.


"And he helped me to control my power. He would show me ways to calm down, ways to control my inner demons, he was there for me, and i loved him for that." She can feel Sara's sad eyes on her, but she keeps going, for the sake of telling the woman she loves the truth.


"He trusted me with his life, maybe a little too much, and that's what got him killed."


"What do you mean?" Sara asks, her soft voice filling the air. Sara wraps an arm around Erin, bringing her into a side hug.


"He uh, told me to transform once, said he trusted me not to hurt him, so i shifted," Erin pauses and takes in a shaky breath, she can't tell if it's from the cold or the memory she's reliving. "and i ripped his throat out."


Sara hugs her tighter, as if she's never going to let her go.


"They uh, brought him back using the pit, i said i could fix him, and when he was beyond redeemable," Erin pauses again, wiping a few tears from her face. "I stabbed him, right through the heart."


"Oh Erin," Sara immediatly says, "I am so sorry."


Erin feels a kiss on the top of her head and cuddles into Sara even more as she begins to cry her heart out.


"He died because of me, Sara, i killed him. I killed the first person to ever love me." Erin cries.


"That's not true," Sara tells her, "I've always loved you."
