Hey everyone welcome to the next chapter. Without further ado.
.
The heroes all stood up and stared at Sinestro, who hovered up above. Krillin, Gohan and Kara especially knew that something was wrong with the former Green Lantern. Everything from his movement to his demeanour seemed more sinister. Gohan was the first to speak up.
"Sinestro? What happened to you? Why are you in yellow?" He asked, though the son of Goku was just ignored.
"The rest of you will stand aside. My battle is with Vegeta only!" Sinestro yelled. Though to everyone's surprise it was Diana who stepped up.
"Vegeta and I may not get along, but I won't let you take him." She responded, to the dismay of Vegeta.
"Vegeta's one of us now! We will proudly stand in your way." Kara added.
"Enough!" The Saiyan prince shouted. Making everyone turn their heads towards him. "I never asked for any of you to stick up for me! I am the prince of all Saiyan's, and such things are beneath me. I would rather die than let anyone fight my battles." Vegeta hovered up in the air and powered up. His words were starting to resonate with the others. Who seemed less than pleased to have been treated in such a way. Vegeta charged in with a full force punch. Though it was easily blocked by the lantern. Sinestro then bombarded the prince with some throwing stars, which were all dodged. The two clashed, as Vegeta started to taunt his opponent. "Just like your pitiful race, this is too easy." Sinestro growled in return.
"My family? Do you even remember their faces?" He shouted at Vegeta, who laughed in response.
"No." The pain in the yellow lanterns eyes were clear. Kara instantly recognised it. The mix between suffering and complete hatred. It was a look that she was all too familiar with. The whole team was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Vegeta was a horrible man, who in most cases didn't deserve another chance. Yet he proved many times that when push comes to shove he could be a tremendous ally. Meanwhile everyone sympathised with Sinestro. However they also knew that killing the Saiyan was crossing a huge line. They all just prayed that this could end peacefully.
.
Bruce joined Dick upstairs, angry that he was unable to discover the bombs location. The two shared a look between them. Knowing what the other was thinking.
"So what do we do now?" The young boy asked.
"Right now we go to Capsule Corp and regroup." His mentor responded.
"Wait does that mean I'm going to meet the rest of your friends?"
"Allies! And yes... Robin, call GCPD and let them know Scarecrow's location." As they walked outside however they were confronted by the rest of Scarecrow's thugs. Who all aimed machine guns at them.
"Don't move!" One of them shouted. Batman and Robin raised both their hands in the air. The mercenaries moved closer towards them, not lowering their weapons for a single second. However just before they fired, a green fist swung down and knocked all of the guards out. The two looked up to see Hal Jordan float down. The green energy shone so bright it was difficult to even look at straight on. Something that the caped crusader was not used to.
"So is this one of your friends?" Dick asked. Bruce meanwhile remained emotionless.
"No... Who are you?" He asked.
"My name's H..." Hal suddenly stopped, knowing it probably wasn't a good idea to reveal his identity yet. "Green Lantern. I represent the..."
"The Green Lantern Corp... Your a bunch of cops who roam the galaxy. Protecting other species from whatever threats may be out there." Green lantern's jaw dropped after that.
"How did you know that?"
"I know some people. The better question is, why are you here?"
"Well, I came to stop the Scarecrow... But it seems that you've already got that covered. I guess you didn't need me after all, Scarecrow's stopped and the bomb's been disabled." The two heroes from Gotham looked at each other awkwardly.
"Actually we don't exactly know where the bomb is located." Robin corrected the pilot.
"Well perhaps I can help?" Hal replied. Dick looked at his adoptive father, eagerly anticipating his response. However what he heard surprised him quite a lot.
"Alright I'm willing to trust you; for the moment at least." Batman said, sounding slightly threatening. "Before though we need to make a stop. Can you take us to Capsule Corp headquarters just outside of Tokyo?"
"Sure!" Hal created a bubble round the two heroes and flew into towards their destination. After picking Barry up along the way. "Is your friend going to be alright?" The caped crusader checked his pulse.
"He should be fine, once we reach Capsule Corp at least. This bubble is being projected from your ring, yet there are no buttons on it. If I was a guessing man, I'd say you control it with your thoughts."
"Yeah, the ring projects whatever I'm thinking. In theory, I can create anything... So what's your super power. So you have super strength?"
"No."
"Are you like super intelligent?"
"No more than a regular genius."
"Well, can you fly?"
"In a plane."
"Wait a minute. Your not just some guy in a bat costume are you?" As he finished Bruce looked at him and smiled. "Are you serious... So that kid doesn't have any powers either?"
"That kid has a name you know! It's Robin!" Dick interrupted.
"Wow, this is certainly eye opening." Hal finished. The three of them powered on towards Capsule Corp headquarters. Not knowing the fight they were about to head into.
.
Sinestro and Vegeta continued to battle it out. However it was becoming obvious that Vegeta was on the offensive. The Lantern remained behind a yellow bubble, blocking all of Vegeta's punches. Who was starting to get frustrated with his opponents tactics.
"Stop being a coward and fight me like a warrior!" He yelled throwing punches like a madman. The others continued to watch in awe.
"Wow, I think Vegeta's gonna actually win." Yamaha said. However Diana shook her head in disagreement.
"No he's not." She responded, making everyone look at her in confusion. "Vegeta may be physically stronger, but Sinestro is playing this smarter. He knows that Vegeta can't break through his shield. So he is waiting for Vegeta to tire himself out. And by the looks of it that won't be too far off." Back with the battle Vegeta continued to bash the shield, with no luck. As he moved backwards, Sinestro created a sword and slashed at the prince. While he did try and dodge, the blade managed to cut his leg. The Saiyan grabbed his leg in pain. Until he let go and saw the blood on his hand. The anger started to build once again. Vegeta kept having flashbacks of his fight with Goku. He had been humiliated by a low class rat once. He was never going to let it happen again."
"You... You actually cut me?" Vegeta said in shock. "I will not let this embarrassment go unpunished!" The others look on in horror as Vegeta started to change an attack. "Galick Gun..." The purple energy formed in his hands. Lighting up the entire skyline. "Fire!" The Ki blast thundered towards Sinestro's shield. As they clashed, an explosion engulfed the air. Vegeta flew backwards panting heavily. That attack had taken almost everything out of him. However as the dust settled, everyone spotted Sinestro still in one piece. Vegeta was the most shocked at all as he sent dozens of Ki blasts towards his competitor. Sinestro though dodged them all and knocked Vegeta down with a hammer.
Vegeta now was on the defensive, trying to dodge Sinestro's newly created throwing stars. However being of the offensive for so long had left him vulnerable. It was only a matter of time before one caught Vegeta in the shoulder. This meant that he was unable to dodge the next three that came towards him. With the his entire body in excruciating pain, Vegeta fell hard onto the floor. The yellow lantern hovered above, ready to make the kill.
"This is for my family!" He yelled throwing an axe at the Saiyan. However before it could hit, Diana blocked it with her shield. "Why are you defending him? Don't you know the crimes he has committed?"
"And what about the crimes you've committed? If you kill Vegeta, how are you any better than he is?" She asked.
"Because I only kill the guilty, and his trial has ended." Both Kara and Gohan now stood in front of the Saiyan prince.
"You aren't the same person that we met on Namek." Gohan said.
"I don't think that new ring is very healthy for you." Kara joked. After a bit of hesitation Krillin and Yamcha now joined the fight. Vegeta was left gobsmacked that these people, who all of them he has tried to kill at one point would defend him so quickly? He hated to admit it, but Vegeta actually felt thankful for once.
"Fine, guess you will all die!" Sinestro shouted creating an axe and aiming it at the six fighters. However before he could hit his target, a green anvil blocked Sinestro from the heroes. Everyone looked over to see Green Lantern, Batman and Robin heading towards them. They all joined the others in defending Vegeta.
"Hey Batman, who's your new friend?" Krillin asked.
"Calls himself Green Lantern." Bruce responded. Sinestro laughed as he spotted Hal with the others.
"Hal Jordan! Come to stop me?" He questioned the young Green Lantern.
"No, I only came here to stop the bomb... But now I'm gonna help save you from yourself."
"You don't get it Jordan, I don't need saving."
"Really? Look at yourself Sinestro. How could you just betray the guardians like that?"
"The guardians?" Sinestro's voice now turned into pure anger. "After all my hard work! All of my contributions! All the times being their slave! And what did I get in return? Having to let the man who murdered my entire family live! Listen to me now Jordan! I am going to go to Oa and tear it apart, one piece after another."
"Not if I have anything to say about it."
"Give up, we outnumber you." Yamcha threatened. Sinestro though was unfazed.
"Oh I know, but I have a few ticks up my sleeve!" The yellow lantern replied. He then pressed a button on his belt, which did the unthinkable. In the distance an huge green cloud engulfed the entire city of Tokyo. All of its citizens were now under the influence of Scarecrow's fear toxin.
So I hoped you liked this chapter and see you next time.
