The alien then says, "Hmm, you could make a good successor. You'll need proper training but you have the will to do it."

Jacob confusedly asked, "What are you talking about." The sound of helicopters are heard in the distance.

The alien smiles and pulls off his ring, "Take this, please."

"What is it." The sound of the helicopters become louder. "Just take it you'll find out soon enough." Not refusing the dying alien's request, I take the ring and place it in my pocket.

The Helicopters near and I know I need to leave. Yet I had to ask.

"What is your name?"

"Abin Sur."

I run off into the distance back toward Gotham.


Chapter Two:

In Brightest Day Part 2

[Jacob's POV]

For the past two days I've been slowly stalking the streets of Gotham avoiding as many people as I can. I'm wanted by everyone after all, and I can't go back home that place would be crawling with detectives.

So I did what anyone in this situation would do.

"Well, this looks like a good place," my voice echoed across the dark empty room of the warehouse.

I sighed. I was thinking about a lot of things, specifically with the alien. I honestly don't understand what happened when I was there.

Yet, I do know what he gave me. The Lantern Ring.

The Green Lantern in Coast City has one exactly like this and he can do amazing feats.

I take the ring out and examine it. It shined brightly in the darkness of the night. I then slip it on.

I was expecting a cool green to glow over me or feel a rush of power yet none came.

"What!? Is it broken or sonething," I questioned. I shake it a little, yet still nothing happens. Irritated, I hit it hoping for any kind of reaction. Yet nothing happens.

"Huh. I've been given the most powerful weapon on Earth and it doesn't work."

I sighed. I grabbed the ring and began to pull it off. It didn't budge. Pulling a bit more forcefully, it still didn't budge.

I began pulling harder and harder hoping to get the ring off until finally a explosion of green energy shockwaved across the room sending me flying. I slamed into the wall.

Then, I felt it. Energy coursed throughout my body as I felt incrediblely powerful. A green aura surrounded me as my clothes began to change to a black and green suit with the lantern insignia on my chest.

I smiled. I was a Green Lantern.

I pulled the ring close to my face then I looked up and said, "Let's Fly."

I zoomed into the air at tremendous speeds creating a hole in ceiling of the warehouse house. I stopped briefly in he air before flying again into the sky.

The clouds whizzed by me as I moved from left, to right, then to left again.

"Woohoo!" I yelled in delight.

As I came up beyond the clouds and into the stratosphere. I stopped and floated there. I could see the stars, the moon, the dark night sky.

Smiling again, I turned and looked back down toward the city. The dim lights if it shining at night. Then I flew straight down toward it.

I zoomed closer and closer toward the ground. Cars were moving fast upon it and just as I was about to hit the road. I made a sharp turn straight. The cars shook from the turn and I flew even faster. Finally, I went back upward and landed on a nearby building.

As I landed my clothes returned to it's normal color. "Yes, that was amazing. Who knew flying could be so fun." I chuckled in delight.

This green ring was going to change everything for me. I knew now my life had just gotten a whole lot more interesting.

I grabbed the ring and prepared to pull it off, but once again it didn't budge. "Okay, little guy. I kinda need you to come off." I said toward the ring as I began to pull harder.

Obviously, it didn't answer but it still didn't budge. "Come...Off!"

When I pulled hard enough it once again exploded realising a green shockwave. I landed on the other side of getting roof of the building.

"Oh! Come on!" I yelled in anger.

I spent the rest of that night trying to pull the ring off.


The next morning I awoke up on the roof of the same building from the night before. I noticed there were burn marks on the roof fron the multiple explosions caused by the ring. I sighed and stared contemptly at the ring. Finally, I gave up and flew down toward and alleyway. I figured I could at least get some breakfast before I start the day.

I stuffed the my right hand in my pocket to hide the ring. As I entered a nearby diner. I took a seat as the waitress came to my table and asked for my order.

"Er, I want some scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuit, and coffee decaf," I said as I looked at my surroundings.

"Is that all," she said as she wrote down my order on a notepad.

"Yes."

She left presumably to get my order. I looked around a bit until I noticed a news story on the diners tv.

Curious, I walked toward ge counter and told the guy next to turn it up.

The title of the story said, "Green Lantern in Gotham?"

"Yes as you can see from these images last night there were multiple images of the Green Lantern flying in Gotham. He disrupted some cars from his flying but mostly there was minium damage." The news anchor said.

"Shit," I mumbled to my self. I immediately began to walk out of the diner. Ignoring the waitresses call.

"I need to get out of Gotham now." I said and began running into an alleyway. Concentrating my energy, my clothes changed into the signature lantern clothing.

I flew up into the air and prepared to fly away until a sense of dread filled me. I looked to my right and there he was. The Green Lantern. I knew I was screwed. I'd more than likely end up in a federal prison. Or worse, Community Service.

Oh the horror. Paying my debt to society by helping out the community.

He flew toward me at tremendous speed s before stopping.

We looked each other in the eyes. Until finally, "Okay, this awkward. Hi," I said.

"Who are you?"

"Why, I'm a Green Lantern. Like you oh dear comrade."

"That's funny because I don't know any other human lanterns."

"Um, I like to stay hidden these days."

He out his hand to his head before saying, "Okay then, what sector are you from."

There was a awkward pause. "I'm er... from sector 2045.6."

He facepalmed. "You're not a Green Lantern are you."

I smiled micheviously,"Nope."

I burst off away from him extremely fast. He followed suit and get was gaining on me. I needed to think fast.

I turned around still flying and created rocks.

3rd Person POV

'Is he throwing rocks at me.' Hal thought as he dodged the rocks flying past him.

He finally was near Jacob. "Listen, I just want to talk. No need to escalate this any further." Hal shouted over the loud noise of their flying.

"I'm perfectly inclined and justified in not believing you."

Jacob created iron bars and hauled them at Hal. They all hit him and he crashed down toward the ground. People ran around him in fear of being injured. Hal grunted as he stood up. "Okay then, my turn."

He looked up to see Jacob floating there seeing his work. Jacob flashed him a smile before preparing to fly off before green chains snaked around his body. He looked back toward Hal to see him using his ring.

Jacob tried to fly away with all his stength but to no avail. He turned back toward Hal, glaring at him and created a car and let it fall on him.

Hal looked up and disembled the chains and created a green energy sheild to protect him from the car.

"Looks, like I've got more tricks up my sleeve than you," Jacob said.

The car disappeared and Jacob fired a blast of Green Energy at him. Hal blocked that with his shield as Jacob floated before him.

"Listen, kid you don't know who you're messing with and what you've got on your finger. I suggest you turn youself over."

Hal said as he summoned a sword and a shield.

"What I have, is the most powerful tool on the planet. So, I suggest you let me go." Jacob said as he summoned a battle axe and shield also.

"You don't want to do this." Hal created a suit of armor around him self.

"Neither do you." Jacob followed Hal's lead and created armor.

They both stared at each other like two warriors prepared to fight for a greater cause.

Then the both flew toward each other a tremendous speeds as their weapons finally made contact with each other.


A/N: I hope you all are having a wonderful day and also enjoyed he second chapter of my story. I at first decided to write the entire fight in this one chapter but decided against it and ended on a cliffhanger.

I'd like to thank gemm1mt for his kind words and that's it.

Constructive Criticism is always accepted and no flames.

Peace!
