P3 Nightclub Saturday 15th October 2001
Hilary Duff’s playing on stage as the crowds bopping to “Why
Not” from “The Lizzie Maguire Movie”
You act like you don't know me {You Think you're going nowhere}
When you see me on the street {When you're walking down the street}
Yo're makin' like I turn you off {Acting like you just don't care}
When I know you think I'm sweet {When life could be so sweet}
It don't have to be like that {Why you wanna be like that}
I guess you're insecure {As if there's nothing new}
If you say what's on your mind {You're not fooling no one}
I might answer "Sure" {You're not even fooling you}
So I walk a little slower {So walk a little slower}
And I try to catch your eye {And open up your eyes}
Sometimes it's so hard to see {Sometimes it's so hard to see}
The good things passing by {The good things passing by}
There may never be a sign
No flashing neon light
Telling you to make your move
Or when the time is right
[Chorus:]
(So) Why not Take a crazy chance
Why not Do a crazy dance
If you lose a moment You might lose a lot
So... why not Why not
Why not take a crazy chance [X2]
You always dress in yellow when you want to dress in gold
Instead of listening to your heart you do just what you're told
You keep waiting where you are for what you'll never know
Let's just get in to your car and go, baby go
[Chorus]
Oh... oh I could be the one for you
Oh... yeah
Maybe yes maybe no
Oh... oh It could be the thing to do
What I'm saying is you gotta let me know
You'll never get to heaven or even to L.A If you don't believe there's a way
Why not take a star from the sky
Why not spread your wings and fly
It might take a little and it might take a lot
But... why not why not
[Chorus]
The song ends & the crowd cheer. Mitch the bartender comes on stage & speaks.
Mitch: Wasn’t she great ladies & gentlemen please give it up for Hilary Duff.
The crowd cheer again. Hilary speaks.
Hilary Duff: Thank you very much.
As the theme changes we come over to the bar where Melissa Hale sitting there dressed in a over the right shoulder ankle length red dress matching handbag & gold 3 inch heel sandals is drinking a Vodka Martini straight up. She’s wearing her Melissa named necklace, Diamonique gold diamond drop earrings & braclet & Diamonique 9ct gold ring. Her strawberry just over the shoulder blonde hairs tied up in a bun with little ringlets flowing down the side of her ears. Fletch is just serving Oliver Queen who’s sitting just opposite a way down from Melissa. He hands him a beer.
Fletch: That’ll be $2.50 please.
Oliver gets some money outta his trouser suit pockets & hands it to Fletch.
Oliver: There you go.
Fletch: Thanks sir I’ll just get your change.
He goes & does that whilst 2 single ladies sitting by a table near over by him look on at him.
Suzy: (Excited) Oh my god that’s Oliver Queen. Oh he’s just as handsome as Forbes described him.
Mimi: I know god I’d love to marry him.
Suzy: Hey hands off Mimi I saw him first.
Mimi: Did not so don’t even think about it sister.
Fletch comes back & hands Oliver his change.
Fletch: That’s $7.50 change.
Oliver: Thank you.
He pockets his money & goes to drink his beer.
Fletch: So what’s Queen Industries doing in a fledgling town like
ours then?
Oliver: Just business donating some money to the local children’s
hospice the company supports.
Fletch: An honourable deed especially to the little children who
don’t have long to live.
Oliver: Yeah well we try to do the best we can & make their lives
as enjoyable as it can be for the time they’ve got left.
Fletch: Absolutely sir couldn’t agree with you more.
He goes over to Melissa’s area & serves some more customers
there. Turning slightly to the right Oliver notices Melissa sitting
down near the end of the aisle.
Oliver: (Thinking To Himself) Wow she’s pretty.
He just about gets up to go over & talk to her when Mitch comes
up there with a copy of the Daily Planet which has an article
about a mysterious benefactor returning several artifacts to well
known historical places in the world.
Mitch: Here guys you seen this?
Melissa: Seen what?
Mitch shows Melissa & Fletch the article he’s holding up.
Mitch: Well some more artefacts that were mysteriously stolen in
the course of 2 weeks have been returned to “The Tate,” “The
Modern,” & “The Louvre” looks like that Green Arrow Bandits
showed up again.
Hearing this Oliver moves his head sideways right so he can get
a better picture of what Mitch’s saying.
Mitch: & the authorities can’t trace it back to him.
Fletch: What makes you think it’s him?
Mitch: Because he’s done it before Fletch that’s why the guys a
criminal a good one but a criminal none the less.
Melissa: How if he’s returned these artefacts.
Mitch: Because he stole them in the first place if he wasn’t a
criminal he wouldn’t have stolen them would he.
Melissa: Yeah but we don’t know all the facts do we I mean the
people Green Arrow stole these artefacts from could’ve been
criminals themselves.
Mitch: Hello one of the people who had these artefacts a
necklace was a Kansas state senator Mel she wasn’t no criminal.
Fletch: But the person who gave her the necklace could’ve been.
Mitch: I’m sorry guys I can’t see why you’re defending this
modern day robin hood even if he does have all this high tech
gadgetry & stuff.
Fletch: He must be rich to do all this.
Melissa: Why you think the Green Arrow’s someone who’s rich.
Fletch: Gotta be otherwise how else could he lead a life like this?
Oliver cautiously continues on hearing what’s been said.
Melissa: Well if you ask me I think there a hero.
Mitch: Really?
Melissa: Yeah I mean okay we’ve the police & all but they can’t
catch every bad guy & secondly whomever this Green Arrow is
must give up a lot in his life to do this I mean work no family
probably lives alone can’t get girlfriends because of this & if does
has to leave dates if he gets a call for help always putting others
before himself & been so selfless that’s a true hero.
Oliver smiles a little to himself hearing this.
Mitch: Yeah well that’s your problem Mel even after everything
that happened between you & Cole & before that you still see
the good in everyone.
Melissa: Yeah well I’ve had a lot of practice since then. I can read
people a little clearer & this guy doesn’t sound too bad to me.
Fletch: & if you were walking home from here & a guy mugged
you & the Green Arrow came in & saved you what would you do?
Melissa stops a minute & thinks then answers.
Melissa: I’d thank him & hope that one day I could return the
favour if he ever needed it.
Oliver turns away a little & thinks to himself.
Oliver: (Thinking To Himself) Wow no ones ever done that when
I’ve saved them before.
Mitch: I’m sorry an all but I just can’t get my head round the fact
he’s a criminal.
Melissa: Yeah well if you’ve seen the things I have Mitch you’d
think differently. The world needs superheroes like “Green
Arrow”.
Fletch: Who knows maybe its Bruce Wayne from Gotham City I
mean he’s rich. Oh well better get back to the customers
suppose. See you around Mel.
Melissa: (Smiling) Yeah see you guys.
The two barmen get back to there jobs, whilst Oliver looks over
at Melissa again.
Oliver: (Thinking To Himself) I’ve gotta go talk to this woman.
He gets up & goes over next to Melissa.
Oliver: Hi um do you mind if I join you?
Melissa looks at him bit unwary like & answers.
Melissa: (Unwary) Okay if you want.
Oliver sits down next to her.
Oliver: Thanks. I haven’t really been here before.
Melissa: To the club?
Oliver: That yes & the town.
He laughs a little then.
Oliver: (Laughing a Little) What I mean’s I have been to San
Francisco before but not very often.
Melissa: Oh right when have you been here then?
Oliver: When I’ve had business going on.
Melissa: Oh right what business, do you do?
Oliver: I own a company.
Melissa: Really what’re you doing here then?
Oliver: Donating some money to a children’s hospice for kids who
don’t have long to live you know helping where I can.
Melissa: That’s very noble.
Oliver: & tonight just coming out to have a drink you?
Melissa gets a little apprehensive when answering his question.
Melissa: (Apprehensive) I’m meeting someone well suppose to
be but he’s not showed up yet. Probably delayed or something.
She gets her Motorola V8 out her handbag & flips it open &
opens up her phonebook & searches for a number & dials it. The
other end goes directly to the phone’s voicemail.
Voicemail: We’re unable to connect your call at the moment
please leave your name, number & message after the tone.
She flips her phone down & puts it back in her back before it
connects.
Melissa: Engaged again he’s probably really busy tonight.
Oliver: Oh right.
Melissa: Yeah well we hadn’t met long ago really so.
Oliver: Oh yeah when did you meet?
Melissa tries thinking up a solution of what to say other than the
fact that the guy was an innocent she’d saved whilst been a
witch.
Melissa: On a job.
Oliver: Yeah? What job.
Melissa: Just a job I don’t really like talking about it.
Oliver: Okay won’t say anymore.
Melissa: Thanks.
She looks at her watch reading 9’oclock & then her drink which
she finishes off & then gets up & outstretches her right hand to
him.
Melissa: Listen it was nice meeting you um?
Oliver gets up afterwards.
Oliver: Oliver, Oliver Queen.
Melissa shakes his right hand.
Melissa: Oliver but I’d better get going my daughter will be
wanting, me so.
Oliver: Really you have a daughter?
Melissa gets out her purse & shows him a picture of Charlotte
who’s 2 & a bit month old.
Melissa: Yep that’s her.
Oliver looks at the picture & answers here.
Oliver: Wow she’s gorgeous what’s her name?
Melissa: Charlotte she’s 2 & a bit month old.
Oliver: Oh right.
Melissa: Yeah my grandpa’s looking after her so.
Oliver: So why can’t you stay out a little longer? I mean just
because some guys stood you up doesn’t mean you have to go. I
mean what were you two goanna do anyway?
Melissa: Well we were goanna eat at a restaurant but.
Oliver: So why don’t we go then I mean if you’ve booked the
place up & everything it’d be a shame to waste the reservation.
& you’ve got all dressed up nicely & so forth plus I’m sure you’ve not eaten yet.
Melissa: Well I haven’t no, but.
Oliver offers his arm out to put it round Melissa’s & smiles.
Oliver: (Smiling) Then it’s settled. Instead of mister no show up
I’ll be your escort.
Melissa shyly pulls away from Oliver a bit.
Melissa: Listen Oliver it’s not that I don’t appreciate the offer it’s
just I haven’t had much luck with guys lately &.
Oliver: Oh yeah why not?
Staring into space Melissa answers him little coldly.
Melissa: Because they’ve hurt me a lot.
Seeing this Oliver answers her.
Oliver: Oh right I’m so sorry to hear that. (Thinking To Himself)
okay Ollie better lay of the charms now. Well then maybe we can
just go as two people then getting something to eat friends.
Melissa: Friends?
Oliver: If you want to be that is I’d like to think we could be.
Melissa: Even though we’ve just met.
Oliver: I’m very good at getting to know people & them getting to
like me. Whaddya say?
He outstretches his right arm towards her again. Reluctantly
Melissa takes it.
Melissa: (Thinking To Herself) Okay what have I got to loose
besides he’s only being a friend. (Talking Aloud) Okay then.
Oliver: Good. Now where did you book the restaurant at?
Melissa: Quake it’s just done the road from here.
Oliver: Oh right how do you wanna get there my car yours?
Melissa: We can take yours my Cousin owns this club so I can
come pick mine up later.
Oliver: Oh really okay then.
Taking arm in arm they walk up the stairs & out the club.
Quake
Inside Oliver & Melissa are sitting by a table near the window
talking as a waiter comes over with their food orders & settles
them down.
Oliver: Thank you.
Waiter: No problems sir would like another bottle of wine?
Oliver: No we’re good at the moment thanks.
Waiter: Okay then.
Melissa: Thanks Stephen.
Waiter: No worries Mel just call if you need anything else.
Melissa: Will do.
The waiter goes off & Oliver resumes talking.
Oliver: You know him?
Melissa: I’ve been here a few times before so I know most the
people here besides my cousin Piper used to work here before
she owned the club.
Oliver: Really? What about you?
Melissa: I worked at the club as a barmaid then became
Entertainments Manager finding acts & stuff to play then decided
to branch out & do my own thing after something happened in
my other job.
Oliver: Which you don’t like talking about.
Melissa: Right & then I became a music teacher & later on a
medical locum at San Francisco Memorial where I’d worked there
before.
Oliver: Oh you were a doctor?
Melissa: A long time ago yes.
Oliver: Wow it must’ve been hard seeing all that blood & guts
again.
Melissa: Not really I’d been a doctor 9 years so you get used to it.
Oliver: Which made you become vegetarian?
Melissa: Yeah seeing all those people die & animals just kinder
fuelled me. What about you & your company?
Oliver: I inherited it after my parents died in an aeroplane crash.
Melissa looks sincerely at him.
Melissa: (Sincerely) I’m sorry Oliver.
She looks down at herself then up at him.
Melissa: I lost my adopted family when I was younger. They were
murdered.
Oliver looks at her shocked.
Oliver: (Shocked) Really? Wow I’m sorry to Mel.
Melissa: That’s okay its gets easier over time & you never really
forget them or other people you’ve lost also.
Oliver smiling looks at her.
Oliver: (Smiling) No you don’t.
Just then a jazz band playing at the restaurant starts up
performing “Ladies Choice” from the musical “Hairspray” The lead
singer starts singing that into his microphone. Melissa gets up &
lends her hand out to Oliver.
Melissa: Wanna dance?
Oliver: Oh I don’t know Mel I’m not a very good dancer.
Melissa: So who cares? Come on.
She yanks him to the dance floor & stands in the middle of it &
starts dancing to the song.
[verse 1]
Hey little girl with the cash to burn well I'm selling something you
won't return
Hey little girl take me off the shelf cause it's hard having fun
playing with yourself
Once you browse through the whole selection shake your hips in
my direction
[Chorus]
Bringing it back if she never did see take me home and then
unwrap me
Shop around with every dollar I've got to be
The ladies' choice ladies' choice
The ladies' choice
[verse 2]
Hey little girl looking for a sale test drive this American male
It's going to take cash to fill my tank (It's going to take cash to fill
my tank)
So let's crack open your piggy bank (So let's crack open your
piggy bank)
Hey little girl if you're window shopping I got something that's
traffic stopping
[Chorus]
Hey little girl on a spending spree I don't come cheap but the
kisses come free
On closer inspection I'm sure that you'll agree I'm the ladies'
choice
The ladies' choice the ladies' choice
Oliver dancing his best he can with Melissa speaks.
Oliver: You’re a very good dancer Mel.
Melissa: Thanks I love this song it’s from one of my favourite musicals.
The lead singer continues singing the rest of the song.
Wow! Hey little girl on a spending spree
I don't come cheap but the kisses come free on closer inspection
I'm sure that you'll agree
Oh, hey little girl listen to my plea I come with a lifetime
guarantee
One day maybe we'll find that baby makes three
It's the ladies' choice I'm the ladies' choice
The ladies' choice I'm the ladies' choice, choice, choice
I'm the ladies' choice...
As the song ends the crowd including Oliver & Melissa cheer at
the band.
Lead Singer: Thank you very much.
Suddenly Oliver’s Blackberry goes of bleeping him of a situation
downtown.
Melissa: What is it Ollie?
Oliver talks spinning a little lie in front of you
Oliver: It’s an important business call um I’m sorry do you mind if
I take this in the toilets?
Melissa: Sure no problem.
Oliver: Thanks.
He gets up & makes a quick exit but drops his wallet in the
process. Melissa picks it up & calls out.
Melissa: Hey Ollie you forgot.
Suddenly she’s pulled into a premonition where she sees a
young woman being attacked by 2 demons later on one of the
demons has the Green Arrow round the neck whilst another
conjuring an energy ball in his hands ready to fire on him. The
premonition ends & Melissa gasps out a little.
Melissa: (Gasps) Oh god.
She quickly goes back to her table & leaves some money on the
table for the bill then quickly puts her coat on & grabs her handbag & runs out the restaurant.
Alleyway
2 demons have hold off an innocent woman who’s struggling to
fend them off.
Woman: Let me go please I don’t have anything.
Demon 1: Oh we don’t want your belongings just your life.
Woman: (Scared) No please.
Demon 1 gets ready to conjure up an energy ball at her when a
tall figure dressed up in green on top of a building speaks out.
Green Arrow: Hey get your hands off her.
The demons look up to see the green figure pull an arrow out
from out his back & place it inside his bow & aim it at a wall near
by them. He fires the arrow which hits the wall then the bow
closes & he puts it on the rope & skirts on down to the ground.
The demons turn round & see him.
Demon 2: Looks like we have a player here man.
The Green Arrow pulls out another blow from his repertoire &
aims it at 1 of the 2 demons.
Green Arrow: I said let her go.
Demon 1: Try us mate.
Green Arrow releases a knock out arrow from his bow which hits
demon 1 in the shoulder. The arrow releases a green mist outtait. The demon groans in pain as the arrows him.
Demon 1: (Groaning) AH!
He pulls the arrow out from him & tosses it on the floor. Oliver
looks shocked when the arrow doesn’t affect him.
Green Arrow: (Shocked) What the hell?
Demon 2 conjures an energy ball at the Green Arrow & gets
ready to fire. The innocent woman screams at this.
Woman: Oh my god.
The demon just about fires it when he feels a sharp pain in the
back of his body. His grip on the woman weakens allowing her to
move away from him. He looks down & sees the wound & feels
the affects of the bullet which has a multiple vanquishing mixture
inside it. The mixture quickly gets to all parts of his body churning
up from the inside out. Groaning in pain he drops to the floor
burning up in a fiery flame & blows up dead. The smoke reveals
Melissa behind with a gun outstretched in her hand. The Green
Arrow & the woman look on shocked at what they see.
Green Arrow: (Thinking To Himself, Shocked) Oh my god Mel? So
this’s her other job.
Angry the first demon throws an energy ball at her which she
astral projects outta dodging it. Melissa projects in beside him &
kicks him out the way with left foot. The demon gets up from the
floor & faces Melissa who’s in a fighting stance ready for action.
Demon 1: You little witch.
Melissa turns at the two people opposite & speaks.
Melissa: Get outta here the both of you quickly.
The girl does that but the Green Arrow stays behind as the
demon wacks Melissa in the face sending her to the floor. He
comes up to her & she lets her right out catching him on the foot
& sending him on the floor also. Pulling herself back & flipping
upwards she stands in front of the demon & puts her right foot
on his neck then aims her gun at him. The demon shimmers out
then in behind Mel & grabs her by the neck.
Green Arrow: MEL!
He releases an arrow at the demon which hits him. The demon
groans & takes the arrow outta his side giving Melissa the
opportunity to swing round & fire some shoots from her 2 guns
she has. The demon rolls sideways over avoiding them then
comes over to Melissa. They exchange kicks & punches, which
she gets the upper hand of. The demon grabs Oliver by the neck
& pulls off his hood which reveals his blonde hair. Melissa
recognises who it is.
Melissa (Shocked) Oliver?
The two quickly exchange glances before Oliver/Green Arrow hits
the demon with his right hand in the stomach then quickly kicks
him out the way with his right foot. The demon comes towards
him & Oliver/Green Arrow quickly fires an arrow pinning the
demon against the wall. Melissa quickly aiming her gun at the
demon fires some bullets which hit him in the head causing him
to go out the way his compatriot went earlier. Oliver & Melissa
just stare at each other afterwards for a while. Smiling at her
Oliver speaks.
Oliver: (Smiling) So this’s your other job then?
Picking up her other gun up Melissa talks.
Melissa: I could same the same about you Oliver. Looks like I’m
not the only one who keeps secrets.
Oliver looking upon her just smiles at her.
San Francisco Motel Sunday 16th October
Next day Oliver & Melissa are talking there about their
experiences.
Oliver: So after I got of the island I came back to Stars City &
saw all the corruption that went on there & that’s when I
became Green arrow.
Melissa: Fighting for truth, justice & the American way.
Oliver: Yeah but that’s not as weird as what you do or your
family & what’s happened to you in your life. I mean demons,
warlocks, witches, white lighters the source coming back from the
future whoa! I mean I never thought that kinder stuff existed.
Melissa: Well it does & that’s what people don’t realise that
there’s other evil out there besides criminals, rapists, murderers
& that’s what we fight & vanquish.
Oliver: Yeah but look what you have to give up to do, it though.
No social life, friends, leaving your job all the time amongst other
things.
Melissa: You do the same Oliver we both have to it’s our destiny
that’s what I learnt when I became a witch & even though it
fucks up your life we’re meant to serve the greater good & I
accept that 100% even though my mom & aunt don’t.
Oliver: Which’s why you moved out?
Melissa: I had to, we weren’t a team anymore when I was always the one fighting the demons all the time & they weren’t.
Oliver: Do you know what you just said to me about destiny & all
that I said to a friend of mine recently.
Melissa: Oh really what happened?
Oliver: He’s not ready yet.
Melissa: Maybe he needs time or something. Who knows maybe
he might join your league one day.
Oliver: Or maybe you’d might with your family of course. You’d be
a valid member of the team.
Melissa: As tempting as that is I couldn’t I’d miss my life I’ve got
my jobs my daughter whom I couldn’t leave & most of all San
Francisco which’s my home. Besides it’s a magnetic for evil also &
someone needs to stay here & defend it.
Oliver: I suppose your right on that one.
Melissa gets up & hands him a piece of paper.
Melissa: This’s my cell phone & my email address. If you ever
want to talk about anything superhero wise or women trouble or
just in general I’m always at the other end.
He takes the paper & puts it inside his pocket.
Oliver: Thanks that’s be nice & you can call me to if you like
although you mayn’t get me all time but if you leave a message
with my secretary I’m sure I’ll get back to you sooner or later.
Melissa: Okay then. So we’re officially talk buddies now.
Oliver smiles at her.
Oliver: That we are.
Melissa shakes Oliver’s hand.
Melissa: Very well then. It was really nice meeting you Oliver
Queen. & despite what people say about you you’re actually
quite normal on the surface of it.
Oliver: Thanks I’ll take that as a compliment then.
Melissa: Please do. Oh & don’t worry your secrets safe with me.
Turning round she walks to the motel door then opens it & walks
out the room. Oliver smiles at her behind then.
Lounge
Later Paige, Piper & Melissa are talking about the previous nights
events.
Paige: So wait a sec you meet this guy at P3 go on a date with
him when you’re other one stands you up even though you only
just met him.
Melissa: It wasn’t a date.
Paige: Get on with this guy exchange phone & email numbers but
don’t kiss him or sleep with him even though he’s absolutely hot
& a millionaire no less.
Melissa: We didn’t think of each other that way he was the
perfect gentlemen we just became good friends.
Piper: & he doesn’t know who you are or anything.
Melissa lies a little about that.
Melissa: Nope.
Paige: Well if you ask me I think you turned down a golden
opportunity.
Paige leaves & walks out the room. Melissa calls out afterwards.
Melissa: Yeah well not everything’s about sex aunt, Paige.
Queen Mansion Star City
The Justice League team comprising of AC Aquaman Bart Allen
Impulse & Victor Stone Cyborg are talking in a secret board room.
Bart: I’m sorry amigo I just can’t believe nothing happened
between you & this girl.
Oliver: That’s because not everything’s about where your
trousers go Bart.
Victor: So she was nice then?
Oliver: Yes she was an incredible woman easy to talk to.
AC: So why didn’t, nothing happen then?
Oliver looks at AC flabbergasted.
Oliver: Nothing happened, Arthur because nothing happened
alright.
AC: Why not?
Oliver: Because she’d been hurt by guys before okay.
Victor: So you did like her?
Oliver: Yes she was attractive. But she had a daughter & her
lives complicated so.
AC: But she gave you her number.
Oliver: Yes encase, I ever wanted to talk about anything.
Victor: So she’s your shrink then.
Oliver: My talk buddy, not shrink. Besides all we did’s go to a
restaurant & eat that’s it so frankly I don’t see why I should
stand around here having to defend myself to you guys. If you’ll
excuse me I have business to attend to.
Oliver comes up from his desk & walks out the room. The others
snigger at each other.
AC: I think secretly he likes her.
The camera holds on him then fades to the end.
The End
Authors Note: Hope you liked that. I just wanted to see what it
would be like for Mel to have a friend outside her family & for Ollie
to have a friend outside his justice mates. If you want to review
the story please do so I like all comments.

P3 Nightclub Saturday 15th October 2001
Hilary Duff’s playing on stage as the crowds bopping to “Why
Not” from “The Lizzie Maguire Movie”
You act like you don't know me {You Think you're going nowhere}
When you see me on the street {When you're walking down the street}
Yo're makin' like I turn you off {Acting like you just don't care}
When I know you think I'm sweet {When life could be so sweet}
It don't have to be like that {Why you wanna be like that}
I guess you're insecure {As if there's nothing new}
If you say what's on your mind {You're not fooling no one}
I might answer "Sure" {You're not even fooling you}
So I walk a little slower {So walk a little slower}
And I try to catch your eye {And open up your eyes}
Sometimes it's so hard to see {Sometimes it's so hard to see}
The good things passing by {The good things passing by}
There may never be a sign
No flashing neon light
Telling you to make your move
Or when the time is right
[Chorus:]
(So) Why not Take a crazy chance
Why not Do a crazy dance
If you lose a moment You might lose a lot
So... why not Why not
Why not take a crazy chance [X2]
You always dress in yellow when you want to dress in gold
Instead of listening to your heart you do just what you're told
You keep waiting where you are for what you'll never know
Let's just get in to your car and go, baby go
[Chorus]
Oh... oh I could be the one for you
Oh... yeah
Maybe yes maybe no
Oh... oh It could be the thing to do
What I'm saying is you gotta let me know
You'll never get to heaven or even to L.A If you don't believe there's a way
Why not take a star from the sky
Why not spread your wings and fly
It might take a little and it might take a lot
But... why not why not
[Chorus]
The song ends & the crowd cheer. Mitch the bartender comes on stage & speaks.
Mitch: Wasn’t she great ladies & gentlemen please give it up for Hilary Duff.
The crowd cheer again. Hilary speaks.
Hilary Duff: Thank you very much.
As the theme changes we come over to the bar where Melissa Hale sitting there dressed in a over the right shoulder ankle length red dress matching handbag & gold 3 inch heel sandals is drinking a Vodka Martini straight up. She’s wearing her Melissa named necklace, Diamonique gold diamond drop earrings & braclet & Diamonique 9ct gold ring. Her strawberry just over the shoulder blonde hairs tied up in a bun with little ringlets flowing down the side of her ears. Fletch is just serving Oliver Queen who’s sitting just opposite a way down from Melissa. He hands him a beer.
Fletch: That’ll be $2.50 please.
Oliver gets some money outta his trouser suit pockets & hands it to Fletch.
Oliver: There you go.
Fletch: Thanks sir I’ll just get your change.
He goes & does that whilst 2 single ladies sitting by a table near over by him look on at him.
Suzy: (Excited) Oh my god that’s Oliver Queen. Oh he’s just as handsome as Forbes described him.
Mimi: I know god I’d love to marry him.
Suzy: Hey hands off Mimi I saw him first.
Mimi: Did not so don’t even think about it sister.
Fletch comes back & hands Oliver his change.
Fletch: That’s $7.50 change.
Oliver: Thank you.
He pockets his money & goes to drink his beer.
Fletch: So what’s Queen Industries doing in a fledgling town like
ours then?
Oliver: Just business donating some money to the local children’s
hospice the company supports.
Fletch: An honourable deed especially to the little children who
don’t have long to live.
Oliver: Yeah well we try to do the best we can & make their lives
as enjoyable as it can be for the time they’ve got left.
Fletch: Absolutely sir couldn’t agree with you more.
He goes over to Melissa’s area & serves some more customers
there. Turning slightly to the right Oliver notices Melissa sitting
down near the end of the aisle.
Oliver: (Thinking To Himself) Wow she’s pretty.
He just about gets up to go over & talk to her when Mitch comes
up there with a copy of the Daily Planet which has an article
about a mysterious benefactor returning several artifacts to well
known historical places in the world.
Mitch: Here guys you seen this?
Melissa: Seen what?
Mitch shows Melissa & Fletch the article he’s holding up.
Mitch: Well some more artefacts that were mysteriously stolen in
the course of 2 weeks have been returned to “The Tate,” “The
Modern,” & “The Louvre” looks like that Green Arrow Bandits
showed up again.
Hearing this Oliver moves his head sideways right so he can get
a better picture of what Mitch’s saying.
Mitch: & the authorities can’t trace it back to him.
Fletch: What makes you think it’s him?
Mitch: Because he’s done it before Fletch that’s why the guys a
criminal a good one but a criminal none the less.
Melissa: How if he’s returned these artefacts.
Mitch: Because he stole them in the first place if he wasn’t a
criminal he wouldn’t have stolen them would he.
Melissa: Yeah but we don’t know all the facts do we I mean the
people Green Arrow stole these artefacts from could’ve been
criminals themselves.
Mitch: Hello one of the people who had these artefacts a
necklace was a Kansas state senator Mel she wasn’t no criminal.
Fletch: But the person who gave her the necklace could’ve been.
Mitch: I’m sorry guys I can’t see why you’re defending this
modern day robin hood even if he does have all this high tech
gadgetry & stuff.
Fletch: He must be rich to do all this.
Melissa: Why you think the Green Arrow’s someone who’s rich.
Fletch: Gotta be otherwise how else could he lead a life like this?
Oliver cautiously continues on hearing what’s been said.
Melissa: Well if you ask me I think there a hero.
Mitch: Really?
Melissa: Yeah I mean okay we’ve the police & all but they can’t
catch every bad guy & secondly whomever this Green Arrow is
must give up a lot in his life to do this I mean work no family
probably lives alone can’t get girlfriends because of this & if does
has to leave dates if he gets a call for help always putting others
before himself & been so selfless that’s a true hero.
Oliver smiles a little to himself hearing this.
Mitch: Yeah well that’s your problem Mel even after everything
that happened between you & Cole & before that you still see
the good in everyone.
Melissa: Yeah well I’ve had a lot of practice since then. I can read
people a little clearer & this guy doesn’t sound too bad to me.
Fletch: & if you were walking home from here & a guy mugged
you & the Green Arrow came in & saved you what would you do?
Melissa stops a minute & thinks then answers.
Melissa: I’d thank him & hope that one day I could return the
favour if he ever needed it.
Oliver turns away a little & thinks to himself.
Oliver: (Thinking To Himself) Wow no ones ever done that when
I’ve saved them before.
Mitch: I’m sorry an all but I just can’t get my head round the fact
he’s a criminal.
Melissa: Yeah well if you’ve seen the things I have Mitch you’d
think differently. The world needs superheroes like “Green
Arrow”.
Fletch: Who knows maybe its Bruce Wayne from Gotham City I
mean he’s rich. Oh well better get back to the customers
suppose. See you around Mel.
Melissa: (Smiling) Yeah see you guys.
The two barmen get back to there jobs, whilst Oliver looks over
at Melissa again.
Oliver: (Thinking To Himself) I’ve gotta go talk to this woman.
He gets up & goes over next to Melissa.
Oliver: Hi um do you mind if I join you?
Melissa looks at him bit unwary like & answers.
Melissa: (Unwary) Okay if you want.
Oliver sits down next to her.
Oliver: Thanks. I haven’t really been here before.
Melissa: To the club?
Oliver: That yes & the town.
He laughs a little then.
Oliver: (Laughing a Little) What I mean’s I have been to San
Francisco before but not very often.
Melissa: Oh right when have you been here then?
Oliver: When I’ve had business going on.
Melissa: Oh right what business, do you do?
Oliver: I own a company.
Melissa: Really what’re you doing here then?
Oliver: Donating some money to a children’s hospice for kids who
don’t have long to live you know helping where I can.
Melissa: That’s very noble.
Oliver: & tonight just coming out to have a drink you?
Melissa gets a little apprehensive when answering his question.
Melissa: (Apprehensive) I’m meeting someone well suppose to
be but he’s not showed up yet. Probably delayed or something.
She gets her Motorola V8 out her handbag & flips it open &
opens up her phonebook & searches for a number & dials it. The
other end goes directly to the phone’s voicemail.
Voicemail: We’re unable to connect your call at the moment
please leave your name, number & message after the tone.
She flips her phone down & puts it back in her back before it
connects.
Melissa: Engaged again he’s probably really busy tonight.
Oliver: Oh right.
Melissa: Yeah well we hadn’t met long ago really so.
Oliver: Oh yeah when did you meet?
Melissa tries thinking up a solution of what to say other than the
fact that the guy was an innocent she’d saved whilst been a
witch.
Melissa: On a job.
Oliver: Yeah? What job.
Melissa: Just a job I don’t really like talking about it.
Oliver: Okay won’t say anymore.
Melissa: Thanks.
She looks at her watch reading 9’oclock & then her drink which
she finishes off & then gets up & outstretches her right hand to
him.
Melissa: Listen it was nice meeting you um?
Oliver gets up afterwards.
Oliver: Oliver, Oliver Queen.
Melissa shakes his right hand.
Melissa: Oliver but I’d better get going my daughter will be
wanting, me so.
Oliver: Really you have a daughter?
Melissa gets out her purse & shows him a picture of Charlotte
who’s 2 & a bit month old.
Melissa: Yep that’s her.
Oliver looks at the picture & answers here.
Oliver: Wow she’s gorgeous what’s her name?
Melissa: Charlotte she’s 2 & a bit month old.
Oliver: Oh right.
Melissa: Yeah my grandpa’s looking after her so.
Oliver: So why can’t you stay out a little longer? I mean just
because some guys stood you up doesn’t mean you have to go. I
mean what were you two goanna do anyway?
Melissa: Well we were goanna eat at a restaurant but.
Oliver: So why don’t we go then I mean if you’ve booked the
place up & everything it’d be a shame to waste the reservation.
& you’ve got all dressed up nicely & so forth plus I’m sure you’ve not eaten yet.
Melissa: Well I haven’t no, but.
Oliver offers his arm out to put it round Melissa’s & smiles.
Oliver: (Smiling) Then it’s settled. Instead of mister no show up
I’ll be your escort.
Melissa shyly pulls away from Oliver a bit.
Melissa: Listen Oliver it’s not that I don’t appreciate the offer it’s
just I haven’t had much luck with guys lately &.
Oliver: Oh yeah why not?
Staring into space Melissa answers him little coldly.
Melissa: Because they’ve hurt me a lot.
Seeing this Oliver answers her.
Oliver: Oh right I’m so sorry to hear that. (Thinking To Himself)
okay Ollie better lay of the charms now. Well then maybe we can
just go as two people then getting something to eat friends.
Melissa: Friends?
Oliver: If you want to be that is I’d like to think we could be.
Melissa: Even though we’ve just met.
Oliver: I’m very good at getting to know people & them getting to
like me. Whaddya say?
He outstretches his right arm towards her again. Reluctantly
Melissa takes it.
Melissa: (Thinking To Herself) Okay what have I got to loose
besides he’s only being a friend. (Talking Aloud) Okay then.
Oliver: Good. Now where did you book the restaurant at?
Melissa: Quake it’s just done the road from here.
Oliver: Oh right how do you wanna get there my car yours?
Melissa: We can take yours my Cousin owns this club so I can
come pick mine up later.
Oliver: Oh really okay then.
Taking arm in arm they walk up the stairs & out the club.
Quake
Inside Oliver & Melissa are sitting by a table near the window
talking as a waiter comes over with their food orders & settles
them down.
Oliver: Thank you.
Waiter: No problems sir would like another bottle of wine?
Oliver: No we’re good at the moment thanks.
Waiter: Okay then.
Melissa: Thanks Stephen.
Waiter: No worries Mel just call if you need anything else.
Melissa: Will do.
The waiter goes off & Oliver resumes talking.
Oliver: You know him?
Melissa: I’ve been here a few times before so I know most the
people here besides my cousin Piper used to work here before
she owned the club.
Oliver: Really? What about you?
Melissa: I worked at the club as a barmaid then became
Entertainments Manager finding acts & stuff to play then decided
to branch out & do my own thing after something happened in
my other job.
Oliver: Which you don’t like talking about.
Melissa: Right & then I became a music teacher & later on a
medical locum at San Francisco Memorial where I’d worked there
before.
Oliver: Oh you were a doctor?
Melissa: A long time ago yes.
Oliver: Wow it must’ve been hard seeing all that blood & guts
again.
Melissa: Not really I’d been a doctor 9 years so you get used to it.
Oliver: Which made you become vegetarian?
Melissa: Yeah seeing all those people die & animals just kinder
fuelled me. What about you & your company?
Oliver: I inherited it after my parents died in an aeroplane crash.
Melissa looks sincerely at him.
Melissa: (Sincerely) I’m sorry Oliver.
She looks down at herself then up at him.
Melissa: I lost my adopted family when I was younger. They were
murdered.
Oliver looks at her shocked.
Oliver: (Shocked) Really? Wow I’m sorry to Mel.
Melissa: That’s okay its gets easier over time & you never really
forget them or other people you’ve lost also.
Oliver smiling looks at her.
Oliver: (Smiling) No you don’t.
Just then a jazz band playing at the restaurant starts up
performing “Ladies Choice” from the musical “Hairspray” The lead
singer starts singing that into his microphone. Melissa gets up &
lends her hand out to Oliver.
Melissa: Wanna dance?
Oliver: Oh I don’t know Mel I’m not a very good dancer.
Melissa: So who cares? Come on.
She yanks him to the dance floor & stands in the middle of it &
starts dancing to the song.
[verse 1]
Hey little girl with the cash to burn well I'm selling something you
won't return
Hey little girl take me off the shelf cause it's hard having fun
playing with yourself
Once you browse through the whole selection shake your hips in
my direction
[Chorus]
Bringing it back if she never did see take me home and then
unwrap me
Shop around with every dollar I've got to be
The ladies' choice ladies' choice
The ladies' choice
[verse 2]
Hey little girl looking for a sale test drive this American male
It's going to take cash to fill my tank (It's going to take cash to fill
my tank)
So let's crack open your piggy bank (So let's crack open your
piggy bank)
Hey little girl if you're window shopping I got something that's
traffic stopping
[Chorus]
Hey little girl on a spending spree I don't come cheap but the
kisses come free
On closer inspection I'm sure that you'll agree I'm the ladies'
choice
The ladies' choice the ladies' choice
Oliver dancing his best he can with Melissa speaks.
Oliver: You’re a very good dancer Mel.
Melissa: Thanks I love this song it’s from one of my favourite musicals.
The lead singer continues singing the rest of the song.
Wow! Hey little girl on a spending spree
I don't come cheap but the kisses come free on closer inspection
I'm sure that you'll agree
Oh, hey little girl listen to my plea I come with a lifetime
guarantee
One day maybe we'll find that baby makes three
It's the ladies' choice I'm the ladies' choice
The ladies' choice I'm the ladies' choice, choice, choice
I'm the ladies' choice...
As the song ends the crowd including Oliver & Melissa cheer at
the band.
Lead Singer: Thank you very much.
Suddenly Oliver’s Blackberry goes of bleeping him of a situation
downtown.
Melissa: What is it Ollie?
Oliver talks spinning a little lie in front of you
Oliver: It’s an important business call um I’m sorry do you mind if
I take this in the toilets?
Melissa: Sure no problem.
Oliver: Thanks.
He gets up & makes a quick exit but drops his wallet in the
process. Melissa picks it up & calls out.
Melissa: Hey Ollie you forgot.
Suddenly she’s pulled into a premonition where she sees a
young woman being attacked by 2 demons later on one of the
demons has the Green Arrow round the neck whilst another
conjuring an energy ball in his hands ready to fire on him. The
premonition ends & Melissa gasps out a little.
Melissa: (Gasps) Oh god.
She quickly goes back to her table & leaves some money on the
table for the bill then quickly puts her coat on & grabs her handbag & runs out the restaurant.
Alleyway
2 demons have hold off an innocent woman who’s struggling to
fend them off.
Woman: Let me go please I don’t have anything.
Demon 1: Oh we don’t want your belongings just your life.
Woman: (Scared) No please.
Demon 1 gets ready to conjure up an energy ball at her when a
tall figure dressed up in green on top of a building speaks out.
Green Arrow: Hey get your hands off her.
The demons look up to see the green figure pull an arrow out
from out his back & place it inside his bow & aim it at a wall near
by them. He fires the arrow which hits the wall then the bow
closes & he puts it on the rope & skirts on down to the ground.
The demons turn round & see him.
Demon 2: Looks like we have a player here man.
The Green Arrow pulls out another blow from his repertoire &
aims it at 1 of the 2 demons.
Green Arrow: I said let her go.
Demon 1: Try us mate.
Green Arrow releases a knock out arrow from his bow which hits
demon 1 in the shoulder. The arrow releases a green mist outtait. The demon groans in pain as the arrows him.
Demon 1: (Groaning) AH!
He pulls the arrow out from him & tosses it on the floor. Oliver
looks shocked when the arrow doesn’t affect him.
Green Arrow: (Shocked) What the hell?
Demon 2 conjures an energy ball at the Green Arrow & gets
ready to fire. The innocent woman screams at this.
Woman: Oh my god.
The demon just about fires it when he feels a sharp pain in the
back of his body. His grip on the woman weakens allowing her to
move away from him. He looks down & sees the wound & feels
the affects of the bullet which has a multiple vanquishing mixture
inside it. The mixture quickly gets to all parts of his body churning
up from the inside out. Groaning in pain he drops to the floor
burning up in a fiery flame & blows up dead. The smoke reveals
Melissa behind with a gun outstretched in her hand. The Green
Arrow & the woman look on shocked at what they see.
Green Arrow: (Thinking To Himself, Shocked) Oh my god Mel? So
this’s her other job.
Angry the first demon throws an energy ball at her which she
astral projects outta dodging it. Melissa projects in beside him &
kicks him out the way with left foot. The demon gets up from the
floor & faces Melissa who’s in a fighting stance ready for action.
Demon 1: You little witch.
Melissa turns at the two people opposite & speaks.
Melissa: Get outta here the both of you quickly.
The girl does that but the Green Arrow stays behind as the
demon wacks Melissa in the face sending her to the floor. He
comes up to her & she lets her right out catching him on the foot
& sending him on the floor also. Pulling herself back & flipping
upwards she stands in front of the demon & puts her right foot
on his neck then aims her gun at him. The demon shimmers out
then in behind Mel & grabs her by the neck.
Green Arrow: MEL!
He releases an arrow at the demon which hits him. The demon
groans & takes the arrow outta his side giving Melissa the
opportunity to swing round & fire some shoots from her 2 guns
she has. The demon rolls sideways over avoiding them then
comes over to Melissa. They exchange kicks & punches, which
she gets the upper hand of. The demon grabs Oliver by the neck
& pulls off his hood which reveals his blonde hair. Melissa
recognises who it is.
Melissa (Shocked) Oliver?
The two quickly exchange glances before Oliver/Green Arrow hits
the demon with his right hand in the stomach then quickly kicks
him out the way with his right foot. The demon comes towards
him & Oliver/Green Arrow quickly fires an arrow pinning the
demon against the wall. Melissa quickly aiming her gun at the
demon fires some bullets which hit him in the head causing him
to go out the way his compatriot went earlier. Oliver & Melissa
just stare at each other afterwards for a while. Smiling at her
Oliver speaks.
Oliver: (Smiling) So this’s your other job then?
Picking up her other gun up Melissa talks.
Melissa: I could same the same about you Oliver. Looks like I’m
not the only one who keeps secrets.
Oliver looking upon her just smiles at her.
San Francisco Motel Sunday 16th October
Next day Oliver & Melissa are talking there about their
experiences.
Oliver: So after I got of the island I came back to Stars City &
saw all the corruption that went on there & that’s when I
became Green arrow.
Melissa: Fighting for truth, justice & the American way.
Oliver: Yeah but that’s not as weird as what you do or your
family & what’s happened to you in your life. I mean demons,
warlocks, witches, white lighters the source coming back from the
future whoa! I mean I never thought that kinder stuff existed.
Melissa: Well it does & that’s what people don’t realise that
there’s other evil out there besides criminals, rapists, murderers
& that’s what we fight & vanquish.
Oliver: Yeah but look what you have to give up to do, it though.
No social life, friends, leaving your job all the time amongst other
things.
Melissa: You do the same Oliver we both have to it’s our destiny
that’s what I learnt when I became a witch & even though it
fucks up your life we’re meant to serve the greater good & I
accept that 100% even though my mom & aunt don’t.
Oliver: Which’s why you moved out?
Melissa: I had to, we weren’t a team anymore when I was always the one fighting the demons all the time & they weren’t.
Oliver: Do you know what you just said to me about destiny & all
that I said to a friend of mine recently.
Melissa: Oh really what happened?
Oliver: He’s not ready yet.
Melissa: Maybe he needs time or something. Who knows maybe
he might join your league one day.
Oliver: Or maybe you’d might with your family of course. You’d be
a valid member of the team.
Melissa: As tempting as that is I couldn’t I’d miss my life I’ve got
my jobs my daughter whom I couldn’t leave & most of all San
Francisco which’s my home. Besides it’s a magnetic for evil also &
someone needs to stay here & defend it.
Oliver: I suppose your right on that one.
Melissa gets up & hands him a piece of paper.
Melissa: This’s my cell phone & my email address. If you ever
want to talk about anything superhero wise or women trouble or
just in general I’m always at the other end.
He takes the paper & puts it inside his pocket.
Oliver: Thanks that’s be nice & you can call me to if you like
although you mayn’t get me all time but if you leave a message
with my secretary I’m sure I’ll get back to you sooner or later.
Melissa: Okay then. So we’re officially talk buddies now.
Oliver smiles at her.
Oliver: That we are.
Melissa shakes Oliver’s hand.
Melissa: Very well then. It was really nice meeting you Oliver
Queen. & despite what people say about you you’re actually
quite normal on the surface of it.
Oliver: Thanks I’ll take that as a compliment then.
Melissa: Please do. Oh & don’t worry your secrets safe with me.
Turning round she walks to the motel door then opens it & walks
out the room. Oliver smiles at her behind then.
Lounge
Later Paige, Piper & Melissa are talking about the previous nights
events.
Paige: So wait a sec you meet this guy at P3 go on a date with
him when you’re other one stands you up even though you only
just met him.
Melissa: It wasn’t a date.
Paige: Get on with this guy exchange phone & email numbers but
don’t kiss him or sleep with him even though he’s absolutely hot
& a millionaire no less.
Melissa: We didn’t think of each other that way he was the
perfect gentlemen we just became good friends.
Piper: & he doesn’t know who you are or anything.
Melissa lies a little about that.
Melissa: Nope.
Paige: Well if you ask me I think you turned down a golden
opportunity.
Paige leaves & walks out the room. Melissa calls out afterwards.
Melissa: Yeah well not everything’s about sex aunt, Paige.
Queen Mansion Star City
The Justice League team comprising of AC Aquaman Bart Allen
Impulse & Victor Stone Cyborg are talking in a secret board room.
Bart: I’m sorry amigo I just can’t believe nothing happened
between you & this girl.
Oliver: That’s because not everything’s about where your
trousers go Bart.
Victor: So she was nice then?
Oliver: Yes she was an incredible woman easy to talk to.
AC: So why didn’t, nothing happen then?
Oliver looks at AC flabbergasted.
Oliver: Nothing happened, Arthur because nothing happened
alright.
AC: Why not?
Oliver: Because she’d been hurt by guys before okay.
Victor: So you did like her?
Oliver: Yes she was attractive. But she had a daughter & her
lives complicated so.
AC: But she gave you her number.
Oliver: Yes encase, I ever wanted to talk about anything.
Victor: So she’s your shrink then.
Oliver: My talk buddy, not shrink. Besides all we did’s go to a
restaurant & eat that’s it so frankly I don’t see why I should
stand around here having to defend myself to you guys. If you’ll
excuse me I have business to attend to.
Oliver comes up from his desk & walks out the room. The others
snigger at each other.
AC: I think secretly he likes her.
The camera holds on him then fades to the end.
The End
Authors Note: Hope you liked that. I just wanted to see what it
would be like for Mel to have a friend outside her family & for Ollie
to have a friend outside his justice mates. If you want to review
the story please do so I like all comments.
