I woke up to the Watchtower bedroom. Last night I had listened to some of the functions of my ring before I had it stopped so I could get some sleep.

I got dressed and the door slid open. I walked down the hallway not sure were I was going. Then in the hallway Superman was standing there supposedly waiting on me.

"Come with me," he says. I follow him into what is most likely the meeting room. Green Lantern is waiting on me.

"I've decided to follow you to Oa but it will be quick as I must return back to this Sector," says Green Lantern. "Okay."

He leads me to the airlock. I say, "Wait a second I how will breathe." "Your environmental shield is on." I check.

"Ring check if my environmental shield is on."

Compliance. Environmental shield is on.

He opens the airlock and we head out into space and my god it is beautiful. The Green Lantern tells his ring," Set course to Oa."

Course set. Preparing Faster Than Light Travel.

He then flies off quickly. I tell my ring the same thing and I'm off.

Oa really beautiful. Way better than I imagined. We had finally reached the planet and I followed the instructions that Lantern Jordan gave me.

You're probably wondering how I know his name. Well I had the ring scan him, don't tell him though.

In the room there was a large arena, and I mean it was huge. There were two Green Lanterns fighting, with a bunch of other Lanterns sitting in the bleachers watching.

I decided to sit down and watch, and it was a very intriguing. A large beast and a smaller shark-like figure were fighting. After a few minutes it ended with the beast winning.

The beast then said, "Anyone else!" No one volunteered. He then looked around and pointed at me. "Me." "Yes you, get down here boy."

I said, "I'm a new Green Lantern so I don't think that's a good idea."

"It's a great idea, this is a training arena so get your ass down here and train."

I reluctantly obliged and made my way to the arena floor. He asked, "What's your name boy." "Jacob."

A referee said, "This is a battle between Senior Lantern Kilowog and New Lantern Jacob. Battle!

-Battle Scene-

The fight begun and I created a construct of a rocket launcher and fired at him. He easily blocked it and formed a mini asteroid. He launched it, I created a shield but his asteroid easily broke it.

The hit launched out the window. I created a grapple hook and fired it back at the building. As I zoomed back toward the arena their waiting by the window for me was Kilowog.

He punched me right in the face knocking me out. I vaguely heard him say, "You're weak boy." As I fell to the ground.

-End of Battle Scene-

I woke up on a bed. I looked around and instantly knew what it was. An Oan hospital.

There was a pain on my face, I felt it and there was a large cut. Three beings were floating there. One was Hal Jordan, another was a purple man, and the last was a fish person.

The Fish man came up to me. "Hello Jacob Smith my name is Tamar-le. Hal Jordan and Thaal Sinestro want to speak with you.

I got up and hovered toward them. While moving I could hear them talking. "How is he the successor of Abin Sur," says Sinestro. "I don't know, but the ring is never wrong," says Hal Jordan.

"He did worst than any other New Green Lanterns against Kilowog," Sinestro says. I land near them. It is awkwardly quiet for a few seconds.

I break the silence and say to Sinestro, "Hi, I'm Jacob." "I know."

"Follow me," he says. We leave the building and fly toward what appears to be a cemetery . We land near a grave. It reads "Hear lies Abin Sur." I ask, "How'd be die."

"Someone shot his aircraft down, we don't know who," says Sinestro, "Do you know why'd he pick you." "No," I say.

"Well, you need to honor his legacy. I don't know what he saw in you, but you need to try harder. I've thoroughly decided to teach you myself. I expect you at the arena tomorrow for training."

He flew off leaving me there.

Sinestro began flying to meet with the Guardians. As he passed near the Central Power Battery. A weird voice began speaking in his head.

"Release Me. Release me. Release me!"

Sinestro ignored the voices but could still hear them whispering.

Sinestro came up to the Guardians. "Did you meet him."

"Yes. He is not what I expected but I will train him." "Good."

Sinestro says," Have you found who killed Abin Sur."

"No. Be patient Sinestro we will find the murderer."
