Silver Lantern corps

Tale of Tears

Chapter 2 : Welcome to the corps

David looked at the ring wondering what was going on. " What are you talking about?" ' Do you know of the emotional spectrum?' " Yeah, will, fear, hope, rage, love, greed, and compassion." ' Those are only 7 of the emotions silver is sadness.' "But why me?" ' Silver Lanterns are chosen because of how sad they are.' David looked at his mother then at the ring. " What does being a silver lantern mean?" ' it means that you go around the universe finding those with sorrow and helping them move on.'

"I accept."

David reached out and put the ring on his finger. There was a flash of light and David felt different but he couldn't find out how. Then he realized that the hole that he felt had been dug as his mother died was filled.

David looked at the full body mirror in the room and saw what he was wearing. It looked like the green lanterns costume but replace green with silver and the symbol was a circle with squiggly lines going down and a small circle with out lines in it . " Whoa."

'We must go' "Where?" ' Accen world of the silver lanterns, where we must meet to discuss what to with our troops.' " Sure let's go." He started walking toward the door ,and the ring pulled the other way thru the window.

" Aghhhhhhh! What are you doing!" ' Going to Accen.' " So you sent me flying out a window!" ' How else would we get out of the hospital?' " I could have walked out the front door!" ' Oh.' " Yeah, oh."

After getting used to flying David saw a bank robbery in progress. " We have to go save them." ' Why?' " Because it's the right thing to do ." ' My only programing is to instill or remove sadness.' " Well this robbery will make people sad and stopping it will keep them from getting sad and make the robbers sad." ' Don't use that logic again and I'l help you.' " Let's go!"

Once again David was crashing thru a window. " Will you stop that!" ' Sorry.' David turned to the robbers and said " Stand down or else!" The robbers looked at each other then fired their machine guns at him. David raised his hands expecting to get shot, but when he looked up he saw a silver wall of light. Then the firing stopped and the wall fell. " Ring what else can you do besides save me from being swiss cheese?" ' Silver lanterns can make a persons see what saddens them the most and create silver light constructs.' " Cool." He turned to one of the robbers and smiled. "Tell what makes you cry." His eyes turned silver

Hal is at his house watching the news when he hears something that interests him. "During a bank robbery a man described as a silver green lantern was there and when the police arrived the robbers were on the floor ,in the fetal position, crying. Thats all for now." Hal grabbed his ring an hailed Oa. " Guardians we have a problem."
