Chapter 13

Outside the Church of Unity, the Justice Society gathers.

"Search the whole building," says Hawkman, before sending out the team.

Deciding to go with front door, Green Lantern enters the church. For a moment, he can't believe his eyes.

"No," whispers Green Lantern.

At the other end of the abandoned church, Green Lantern sees his daughter tied to the altar, much as Kelly Smith had been. Tied and struggling against a man on top of her.

"NO!" shouts Green Lantern, sending out a large green hand from his ring.

The green power backhands the man off of Jade and into a wall. Flying at the man, Green Lantern decides to use his fists, instead of his green power to beat the man.

…...

"Jenny?"

Turning her head, Jade glances to her side and sees Flash.

"Untie me," she asks.

Quickly, Flash unties Jade. Sitting up, Jenny glances toward her father. "Flash! My father!"

Glancing over to the fight, Flash can see Green Lantern is letting his anger control him.

"Flash, you have to stop him before he goes too far," says Jade, slipping off the altar.

"Green Lantern! Stop!" shouts Flash, rushing over to his friend. Grabbing Green Lantern's arm, Flash tries to draw his friend's attention. "Stop!"

With a burst of green energy, Green Lantern throws off Flash. Turning back to the man who had dared to attack his daughter, Green Lantern raises a fist.

"Daddy!"

Stopping, Green Lantern turns away from the man he has beat bloody and looks toward the altar. Standing at the altar, with a hand on the stone top for balance, Jade looks at Green Lantern.

"Jenny?" Turning away from the bloodied man, Green Lantern walks toward his daughter.

"Alan," says Flash, stepping back up to his friend. "Go see your daughter."

Nodding his head, Green Lantern walks over to his daughter. Taking off his green and purple cape, he wraps it around Jenny. With his focus on his daughter, Green Lantern doesn't pay attention as Wildcat and Atom bind Emilo Cortez and lead him away.
