Stargate: A-Lantern-is
Dr. Rodney McKay was looking at the ring, which was floating in the air before him. The ring which had just spoken in his mind telepathically about him joining the Green Lantern corps, the same 'fictional' corps which had been found in the comic books.
He had been doing something more normal, like looking for more ancient technology to use for the Atlantis Expediation, when he got seperated and was soon found by the ring. He had to ask a few questions, " Okay, assuming this is real... How did you get here? And why choose me of all people? I mean there are more people more worthy to use you. Shepard, Teyla, Ronan. Why me? "
'I have shifted through a void by some unknown method till I arrived here. You were choosen because you have the potential to overcome great fear, largely due to you having many fears and yet continuing to perform the actions you must do. Also you were the closest when I arrived on this world.'
"The big Guy Gardner thing again. Okay, I'm either going crazy or I have access to the most power technology in the universe. given the problems which we're facing it would be a great help. So, I'll bite for now. I accept the ring and all it involves." said Rodney as the ring slipped on his right ring finger and his clothes were replaced with a common Green Lantern suit. The only difference was the lack of a lantern symbol on his chest, he just had a blank space where it would have gone.
He just had to think of the problem and he was answered that he would get his symbol after training, the problem would be getting to Oa since it didn't exist in this world. The ring also noted that the Lantern Battery which goes with the ring was in a subspace pocket near the ring.
'Okay ring, I'm guessing you're reading my mind. I need to know where my friends are and if there are any threats or dangers around. If you could also scan and detect any advance technology, I was you to copy it's design and all data related to it.' thought Rodney as he tried to figure out all of the damages.
'Ring detects technology and has assessed it, it has found your three friends in a firefight against aliens you know as Wraith. Prepare to engage.' The human Doctor was flying straight to the fight.
Elsewhere on the planet...
Lt Col. John Shepard was in the middle of a fire fight with what Ronan identified as a Wraith hunting party, likely looking for the same thing they were. Ancient technology which could change the balance of power between the humans and the Wraith. Worse, Rodney was missing.
"The Wraith seem to be planning for us to run out of bullets before striking. If we have any kind of plan, we had better bring it up as soon as possible." cried Teyla, one of the humans who lived in the Pegasus galaxy.
"I say we charge them, they won't be expecting it. Of course, it's a bit of a sucide mission but what do we have left?" said Ronan, a man who has spent part of his life as live prey for the aliens before them.
As John debated what it was he was going to do, he heard a cry in a familiar voice...
"In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight.
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power... Green Lantern's light! "
They turned up to the sky and saw a man floating in the air holding a lantern and glowing green. The Lantern vanish and he flew into the middle of the battle field between the Wrath and Atlantis One. The Atlantis team was shocked as it was Rodney McKay, the most shocked being John as he realized what Rodney had become. Something which had to be impossible and totally unlikely.
The Wraith tried to fire at him, but all of their energy weapons just bounced off him like they were nothing. McKay just raised his ring and created a larger forcefield behind him to protect the Atlantis team. Giant robotic arms also shot from him into the Wraith line, gathering them up. Then he created what looked like a wormhole from a stargate and shoved them through it. Then he landed before his teammates and was smiling.
John was up first with his questions, "Okay first, where did you send the Wraith and will they be causing us trouble? Two, when did you become a living comic book character and is this going to bite us on the ass?"
"The ring scanned the stargate and was able to detect the entry point of the last wormhole, which given the address was the Wraith, and I sent them back there with a slight programming error which will give us time to get away. From what I can tell from the ring, it's traveled through a multi-dimensional void to this universe. It seems to have all of the properties of a Green Lantern power ring, so I figured it would be useful on Atlantis. Not sure, about the ass bitting aspects yet. It did pick up all of the ancient designs and should be able to use matter and energy, like the Asgard teleportation system to make the objects. That's all I know about right now." said Rodney as he reported the details he had on the ring.
"This is going to make things more interesting..." said Shepard as he decided their next move.
Once returned to Altantis...
Once getting the job with the NID and the IOA, Richard Woolsey had seen many things which had been unusually and almost unreal, but this topped the cake. One of his best scientist and member of his best time... had come back a superhero. The Green Lantern to be more precise, which made him wish he had read that comic as a kid. He was more a Batman and Superman fan, when it came to DC. So he was getting into the loop of what this power ring could do.
"Dr. McKay has one of these Green Lantern power rings from the comic books, so for those who have never been to Earth to read the comics or had read the comics when they were there, what does this mean?" asked the commander.
"The ring has refreshed some of the information I knew from my comics, but the ring is powered by willpower and allows anything you can imagine to happen. Like an Aladdin's Lamp. Energy projections, force fields, energy contructs, phasing, invisiblity, environmental playback, energy twin, energy absorption, flight and so forth. It can also create wormholes, act as a translator and has an encyclopedia for it's universe. It can also effect the fundamental forces of the universe, like the electromagnetic structures or gravity. This is just the top of the iceburgs." Replied Rodney as he spoke of the power of the ring.
He continued with the weaknesses, "It does have weaknesses. Mental Instability causes one unable to use the ring, like drug use or vertigo. It's weak against the colour yellow, but the ring has told me this can be bypassed by accepting one's fears. The Light spectrum in it's universe is connected to certain emotions, with green being willpower and yellow being fear. The ring also needs to be recharged one per planetary axial rotation, depending on the ring's location. Also certain vibrations can cause it to function in miniature."
"So potentially this ring can create objects like ZPMs to charge Atlantis, if it couldn't do it by ring alone. All we have to do is avoid golden coloured objects. I'm curious about this emotional light spectrum. We know what green is and what yellow is, but what about other colours? Could they be arriving in this universe?" asked Woolsey as he wanted full details before he made decision.
"Red is rage, orange is avarice, blue is hope, indigo is compassion and violet is love. Violet and yellow are the Star Sapphire corps and Sinestro corps respectively. There are also Black and White rings, representing death and life. turns out in the ring's universe Earth is not only the centre of the multiverse but also the source of life in the universe. The Black Power Rings are the worse as the animate the corpses of those you care about and makes a copy of their mind and personality. These corp corpses are then sent to cause you to experience one of the seven light emotions, and then rip out your heart to help an undead cosmic being come into the universe." reported the new Green Lantern
"So... Zombie Lanterns, we might have to face unstoppable zombie lanterns. Just what I wanted to do with my life. Do they have weaknesses?" asked Lt Col. John Sheppard, as he tried to figure out how to fight zombies.
"The white light of life basically nukes them, but it can also bring some of them back to life. This light seems to have some kind of intellect behind it. It has records of different neutralizations including at least one white light bomb which eliminted the threat over a city." mentioned Rodney, as he seemed to hint he could develop this kind of bomb with ease.
