The light faded after a couple seconds revealing Petrie wearing a green lantern
uniform. For the most part his uniform was like the basic uniform most lanterns
had but with major changes made to it. He had the basic black sleeves and
leggings that the other uniforms had but the bright green torso of his uniform was
now a dark metallic like shade of green that was pointed at the end instead of being
flat and extended to about half way down his stomach instead of stopping at his
chest. His gloves and boots were the same shade of green as his torso while his
mask was black where it covered his face and green where it covered his eyed
instead of being white. His wings were easily the most unique aspect of his
uniform because instead of being the same green as the rest of his uniform the front
of his wings were more of a neon green and now had black ridges put on them that
made his resemble the ones of a bat. The back of his wings still had the ridges that
the front of his wings now had in the exact same places but the color scheme was
flipped so that the wings were black and the ridges were neon green. The lantern
symbol on his chest was very different too because instead of having a white circle
for the base his uniform had a black diamond and instead of the basic lantern
symbol Petrie's lantern symbol was a green diamond with a black diamond in the
center of it and triangles for the top and bottom parts of the lantern that looked like
the top and bottom of a normal lantern.
"woah" said Petrie like he was coming out of a trance. "what just happened?".
Petrie then saw that he was wearing a lantern uniform "what the hell?" "Petrie"
Petrie turned around to see his friends running up to him. "Petrie, is that really
you?" asked Cera. "yeah, I think so" responded Petrie. "you look like a completely
different flyer now" Ducky stated. "really?" asked Petrie "yeah" added Cera "you
even sound different.". "Alright kid" Beast interrupted "now that your rings'
charged it's time you learn to use it, follow us" the lanterns walked out of the room
as Petrie started to follow but was stopped by Cera "Petrie, you're not really going
along with this are you?" "do I have a choice?" replied Petrie in a half sarcastic
half upset voice. Petrie continued to walk out as Cera and Ducky followed.
The crew entered a large room with several weird structures and objects. "welcome
to the training area" said Hal. "it's where we break in the new recruits." added
Killowog. "Break?" Petrie asked nervously. "relax poozer, it's a figure of speech,
mostly." "anyway" intervened Katra "let's get started" she signaled to Petrie to
follow her while Ducky and Cera stayed back with everyone else. "lets' start with
the basics" Katra then held her fist out as a beam of light came from her ring and
hits the ground half way across the room. A tree soon emerged from the spot that
the beam hit and son grew several stories high. "the ring is a tool that can be used
to create anything that the wearer can imagine, as long as they have the will to do
so". Petrie looked on in amazement "that's incredible". Katra glanced over to
Petrie with a smirk on her face "you try". Petrie turned to her with a look of shock
"What? Oh, no, I can't do th" "just focus" Katra interrupted. Petrie took a deep
only went about a story high before it disappeared and a look of disappointment
appeared on Petrie's face. "don't worry" Katra said reassuringly "it takes a lot of
practice to get good." Petrie smiled at this. "she's right" said Beast walking up to
the two. "you do need a lot of practice to get good, so let's get started."
(me again, have the new chapter up at last. As always, read, review and let me
know if there's any way I can improve my writing skills. Later.)
