Chapter 1: A Night On The Town
"Aww, come on GL, it'll be fun. You know you want to go." The Justice League's resident speedster, Flash was trying to persuade Green Lantern to come to a nightclub with him, with no luck.
"As I said before, I am not going to a club. I'm not in the mood." John closed his door and turned around to see Flash in his room. John grunted with annoyance.
"Listen John, I know that you and Shayera ain't doing the whole "dating thing" anymore but this will be a chance to just to chill out and to get a few chicks on the way." Flash smirked.
John just put his head in his hands. 'Maybe he's right' he thought. 'Maybe I ought to just try and get over this'. It had been two weeks since him and Hawkgirl split up. They both blamed the pressure of being superheroes putting a strain on their relationship. John looked up at Flash.
"Alright hotshot, I'll go."
"Alright GL! This is gonna be a blast!" Flash sped out of John's room, leaving him to get changed.
"Maybe this was a bad idea." John told Flash as they entered Club Neon.
"Its too late now, you're here. Just have fun and…be right back." Flash rushed over to a group of girls who had been eying him up since he got there. John just sighed and went over to the bar.
"Vodka please"
"Orange juice please" John glanced over to see a figure, with a long coat and a hood, which obstructed her face. She gulped down her orange juice and walked off, her coat flowing behind her. John shook his head. 'People get stranger all the time'. He finished off his vodka and went in search of Flash.
He found him, surrounded by a large group of females, all star struck, whilst Flash just stood there smirking and flirting with them. Flash noticed John and dragged him towards the group. "Ladies, as you can see this is Green Lantern and he needs a bit of loving." All the girls' eyes shifted towards John. "Flash, what are you playing at?" He hissed into his ear.
"I just want you to have a good time. Oooo, look GL, I think they really like you."
The girls started to advance, backing John into a corner.
"Are you single?" said a girl
"Hey back off girl, He's mine," said another
Flash stood back and watched then suddenly realized something.
"Hey, GL is now officially stealing my limelight."
John, on the other hand, was getting very scared indeed. Crazy criminals bent on taking over the world, he can handle. A large group of girls who want to get into his pants is another thing.
"FLASH! HELP!" John shouted.
Flash was about to grab John when there was a loud crash from outside.
"Ermm, can you excuse me ladies?" John flew out off the club with Flash behind him.
"Your quite the ladies man aren't you?" Flash grinned
"Shut up will you. Didn't you hear that bang?"
"Yeah where do you think it came from?"
Before John could answer, they both looked up and saw three men hovering in the sky.
"Now that's something you don't see everyday." Flash remarked
"It looks like they came from the alley, come on." They both made their way towards the alley. They also realised that the sky turned a purple black colour.
"Strange" muttered Flash.
They reached the alley and narrowly missed being hit by a man flying at them. Amongst the chaos they saw the person causing all of it. A figure in a long coat and hood was waving her arms about, causing the men in the air to spin about.
'That's the girl from the club' thought John.
A strong wind then swirled around her till it look like a small tornado and there in place of the hooded figure, stood a girl, dressed in a purple spandex suit with silver knee high boots. A long silver trench coat covered her suit and she wore silver fingerless gloves with a lightening on each glove. A mask covered her eyes and her hair was long and purple with two white streaks at the front, framing her face.
"I told you people to leave me alone." She said
"Who is she?" asked John
"I don't know but whoever she is, she sure is hot."
John rolled his eyes. "Come on we need to stop her."
"Right" Flash ran behind her and tapped her on the shoulder.
"Hey cutie." The girl turned around startled. She also lost her concentration on the men in the air. They came hurtling towards the ground but Green Lantern made a green bubble around them.
"Who are you?" she questioned timidly
"That's something we should be asking you." Green Lantern asked sternly
"Well, I am Torrent. These men were trying to attack me so I kind of gave them what they had coming. So who are…ARGH!"
"What the?" Flash quickly looked around and saw a coat flap on a rooftop.
He looked back and saw Torrent on the floor with a tranquilliser dart sticking out of her neck.
"We better get her back to the Watchtower" Said Green Lantern as he scooped up Torrent off the floor. Flash took one last look at the rooftop and followed John.
"I managed to hit her but two men took her away"
"Don't worry, she is not needed yet but when the time comes she will be and she won't last long I guarantee that"
The man switched off his mobile phone and drove off into the night.
First chapter done. Next Chapter: Torrent will meet the rest of the Justice League and discoveries will be made. Please review.
