Hey guys, so I know I promise this chapter will contain Hal meeting Robyn and Mebh parents and the Lord Protector doing more things with his new ring, but things has been pulling me down from making it, so that one will come next after this one ( So apologize for teasing that ).
Now as for what this chapter will contain, it will serve something important later on. So here it is.
At Central City, the people ran and screamed as there seemed to be not only a huge snow storm sweeping through the roads, but also a giant weathering machine placed at the center of four roadways.
The machine was box side, with a giant, black tube on top of it, spurring out a giant snow smoke.
The crooks behind this were Captain Cold! And the Prankster!
The Prankster chuckles, rubbing his hands and gleefully hip hop, all a while Captain Cold uses his freeze gun to freeze everything around him.
"Wow! What a blizzard forecast we are having here today", Prankster said, "And here I thought it would never snow during the summer weekend".
"Ah shut up, Prankster", Captain Cold replied, "It won't be too long until the Flash arrives".
"Yeah, yeah, you're right", Prankster said, sitting down on the road, "Especially the fact we both still cool together. You know what I mean?"
Captain Cold sighs, "Again with your freeze pun".
"I can't help it".
"Well stop being a Joker knockoff", Captain Cold told him, "And make sure the machine doesn't have any perks on it".
"Hey, I am not a Joker knockoff. At least I don't attempt to kill".
"Which we are doing now, frankly".
"Uhh no, we aren't killers you know".
"Correct, which is why once we freeze this area", Captain Cold said, "All the riches will be ours. And the Flash will be too late to stop us".
"Again, I don't get how this plan would work, and how you and I working together will somehow be useful, but okay then. As long it fun, I'm-"
"Don't you dare say it".
"Say what?"
"You were going to say, cool. Weren't you?"
"No, I'm not. Who do you think I am, Mr. Freeze?"
"Oh please, he doesn't make ice pun. That's a fact".
"Come on, he can….sometime", Prankster said, "When he's not thinking about his wife or curse or anything".
"Riiight, like I believe that".
"Actually, the idea of Mr. Freeze making a pun does sound weird", A familiar voice startled them, as they turned to see the Flash, leaning near the machine, "Sup guys, how are you doing? Seems to me someone isnt patient of wanting winter".
"Fash! How did you-" Before Captain Cold could ask, he was already answered quickly by the Flash, managing to disable the machine, which crumbled down and caused the snow storm to disappear.
"And if you ask? I got a little help from my friend", Flash replied, as behold another figure hover above them.
It is a Green Lantern named John Stewart.
The Trickster gasp, "A Green Lantern! Oh man, I did not sign up for this!?"
"Too bad", Captain Cold said, holding out his freeze gun at John Stewart, "Here's some ice cream for ya!"
He shot. The frosting splatter at John, using his green lantern ring to project a giant wall shielding him from the blast.
The Flash swooped in and gave Captain Cold a fist in the head and guts, thirty times until Cold was knocked out cold.
The Trickster tried to outrun the Flash, but he was stopped by a green fist, punching him out.
"Hey, I was going to get him", Flash told John, who didn't seem to care.
"You could've gotten someone else to help you in this situation?" John asked, referring to the fact the Flash brought him here from his Lantern duty to stop a crime that wasn't highly important for a Green Lantern to handle, "Someone that isn't a Green Lantern".
"Hey, I need a best friend to help out", Flash said, "Besides, you still owe me a favor back there when I have to save your butt from an off planet".
John sighs, remembering that fateful day. He can't deny it, so he admits it, "Yeah, I guess you got me there".
"So anyways, what do you want to do?" Flash asked, running swiftly back to his house, and returning with what appear to be tickets, "I got two tickets for a football event".
"No thanks", John replied, "Right now, I need to look for Hal. He hadn't called back for a while now and I'm concerned".
"Really? Maybe he's taking a small break or busy. Being a space police must be hard".
"True, but something doesn't seem right. Even Kilowog, the Guardians, and I noticed he hadn't even replied back to our message for a while. And it couldn't possibly be his break, since I checked his apartment, and he doesn't seem to be there either".
"Hmm...that is odd", Flash said, but he tried to not think too much, telling him, "Well, whatever it is, I'm sure it's nothing. He's probably just relaxing at some space spa or something. If I was a Green Lantern I would totally do that".
"Flash, please. You do know how a Green Lantern works, right?"
"Uhh yeah, isn't it about using some ring for anything or something?"
John rolled his eyes at Flash's lack of knowledge on the ring power, "Whatever. I'm going to keep looking for him".
"Alright, cool", Flash said, as John left the scene, flying back into orbit.
As for Flash, he looked around wondering what to do now, as cop cars came to arrest the two villains.
"Hmmm, pretty lonely around here", Flash remarked, "I wonder if I could contact Martian dude to hang out?"
Again, sorry for this being shore, but like I say it much easier to update.
But anyways, the next chapter will surely continue where Hal left off. Stay tune.
