The first two chapters take place around the Rebirth comic while at least the next few chapters if not the rest of the series take place from right before the Sinestro Corps War to Brightest Day. Don't worry if you haven't read the comics I will be giving all the information you will need for the context of the series. Oh I also edited the first two chapters, the only thing that was changed was city where she lives so if you're confused just skim the first chapter.
The Strangest Day of My Life
Chapter 3
A few days later I decided to do a little research, I found out Sinestro is an enemy of the Green Lantern's and that he had been a member of the Secret Society of Super-Villains; which doesn't seem that secret to me since they have a page on Wikipedia. But where Sinestro came from and why he hates the Green Lanterns so much couldn't be found anywhere. I did find a few sites by people who clearly have way too much time on their hands, they seem to have a theory for everything; they even have whole sites dedicated to a single villain. After the first week I just decided to push what happened behind me and continue on with my life.
It's been almost three weeks since an alien lantern crash landed in the alleyway next to my apartment building and things are definitely looking up. I sold two paintings last week one of them I got almost $300 for which is huge since I've been barely been able to get $50 in the past and I got a raise at one of my waitressing jobs. I had also noticed a few more people in the streets; of course a lot of people are still afraid to come back after the city was destroyed a few years ago. But yeah things were finally starting to pay off.
Finally off work I headed home. I have been walking home from work since I moved back because there were too few people to worry about and the bus system hasn't gotten to my side of town yet. It was a little after 11pm and it was a very beautiful evening. The walk home was uneventful; it was relatively quiet since I only saw two people on the way.
Getting to my apartment building I decided to take the stairs, a little exercise couldn't hurt and I didn't entirely trust the elevator I don't care how 'new' it was. Reaching my apartment door I could hear Ginger on the other side jumping up and down happy to hear my footsteps. After going inside I quickly took Ginger out on a walk to go to the bathroom before I took a shower to get the smell of grease and sweat off of me. Changing into my pajamas I walked out of the bathroom towards the kitchen while drying my hair with a towel. Walking out of the bathroom into my bedroom I thought it was odd that Ginger wasn't at my feet begging for dinner when I stepped into the doorway between my bedroom and the living room I dropped the towel utterly shocked at the sight before me.
It was Sinestro; he was sitting at the table facing my direction with Ginger Ann in his lap who was clearly not at all bothered by the super-villain petting her. He looked up at me as he I entered the room; he looked quite imposing sitting in the center of the room with his uniform on while petting my dog like some Bond villain.
"Good you're finished you should change into something more appropriate and grab your things we're leaving." He stated this like we had this little trip planned for weeks and that he was tired of waiting on me.
"….Wait what's going on?" I asked completely confused. Sinestro sighed obviously irritated and let Ginger down before standing up and walking towards me until he was only a foot away. I had to resist the instinct to step back not wanting to appear weak, which was really hard to do realizing he was close to being a foot taller than me and because he was in his uniform and I was in an over sized tee shirt and sweat pants.
"Look I don't have time for this; I will explain everything once we have reached our destination so change quickly and grab your things so we can leave." He was clearly in no mood to argue and I definitely don't remember his presence being this intimidating so I took the hint and turned around grabbed some clothes and quickly changed in the bathroom. Exiting the bathroom I saw Sinestro leaning on the door frame waiting for me. I grabbed my large backpack and began to stuff it with cloths, mp3 player etc, I was packing on automatic to bewildered to do anything else. Putting the backpack on I started to feel myself begin to panic as I began to shake lightly realizing I was really leaving with a strange alien man who was a super villain and he could easily kill me at any moment.
"Stop it!" He stated in a very firm tone, I jumped slightly surprised and a little scared; I apparently wasn't a subtle as I thought I was. "If I had wanted to hurt you I would have done it already so grab you canine and come here." His words didn't reassure me at all, his annoyed tone just made me more nervous, so much so that my hands were shaking when I reached down to grab Ginger however I didn't dare approach him further not trusting him at all.
When I didn't get any closer he furrowed his brow and grabbed me by the arm and forcefully pulled me towards him. Now touching him he moved his hand from my arm to hold me around the waist, none to gently might I add. Ginger kept looking between us confused and nervous as he pulled me towards the window opening it with one hand and then flew out the window holding onto me as I gripped Ginger to my chest utterly terrified as my whole world instantly became smaller as we flew away from it at what felt like the speed of light.
Realizing we were in deep space I began to panic confused as to why I was still breathing and the fact that I was just abducted from my home and being taken to god knows where. Feeling me struggle and take deep panicked breathes Sinestro looked down at me clearly angry as he grabbed me with his other hand and moved his left hand down to my knees so he was carrying me bridal style. The new position did help oddly enough because I was able to not only see him better but I also noticed that there was a yellow glow surrounding Ginger and I as we passed through space. I stopped panicking but still scared as I gripped Ginger with one hand and Sinestro with the other terrified that either I would accidentally let Ginger go and she would die or that this was all some sick joke to him and that he would release us to choke and freeze to death in the vacuums of space.
Thankfully neither happened. After about fifteen to twenty minutes I could see planets and moons off in the distance it was a beautiful sight to see. Looking forward I could see one planet in particular we were approaching quickly. As the planet became bigger he started to slow down, and once we entered its atmosphere he flew slowly keeping to the higher altitudes till he saw what he was looking for and quickly headed towards the planet's surface. I felt so nauseous with how fast we were going that I closed my eyes and covered Gingers eyes doubting Sinestro would appreciate being thrown up on. Thankfully this barely lasted a few seconds before he began to slow down and then stop as we landed.
Opening my eyes I could see that we were near the top of a mountain that was surrounded by a huge city. I started to squirm wanting to be released but he clearly had different plans as he carried me to the side of the mountain. It opened entirely on its own to reveal a long hallway. As we went down it I noticed that there seemed to be a lot of security measures for this place, I saw several steel doors rise as we walked, a lot of weaponry that I couldn't identify turned towards the entrance and what looked like traps for whoever was stupid enough to try and break in here. When the final door opened we were greeted with a very luxurious home. As the door closed behind us several people with the same skin color as Sinestro came up and began to speak with Sinestro in a language I couldn't understand as they stood nearby bowing in his direction. But he ignored them, waving them away as he let me down but still remained a hold of me at the waist as he led me down several hallways before going up some stairs then down another hallway then finally reaching a door that he opened and led me into.
"This is your room, you will be free to roam my home as you please, but doors are locked for a reason and you cannot leave this building, do you have any questions?" I stared at him blankly for several seconds still feeling a little nauseous from the flight here.
"Well… why exactly did you take me here and where is here exactly. Why can't I leave and when will I be able to go home?" I spoke rather quickly afraid of making him angry and overall I was utterly terrified and nauseous.
"You saved my life so it is only natural for me to return the favor, the Earth is about to change dramatically and I thought it wise to spare you what is about to happen, as to where we are this is my home planet Korugar and we are in my home; you can't leave for several reasons, one is because your human and my people are very distrustful of humans and because Korugar is unsafe especially if anyone found out that I brought you here and I will take you home when it is safe or if something should happen I will help you find more permanent accommodations. Now I must inform my servants that you are staying here and to get you some clothes since you will be here for some time."
And with that little speech he turned around and left the room shutting the door behind him. I let Ginger down as a wave of exhaustion hit me. Taking off my shoes I set my bag down and crawled into the very large, very comfy bed as my brain tried to absorb all that has happened today as I drifted to sleep.
