Delayed for a simple reason, with the superbowl on, I do not need such a competitor for my readers...and to be fair, would any of you be on the web, instead of either celebrating or mourning, depending on your team.
It matters to me not
The poll for the team's official name is still up; Outsiders is still in the lead, followed by Teen Titans then a tie by Young Justice itself and, other. You can suggest the other. If I get a catchy other, it will win automatically.
Also, expect a 'surprising guest star!' He will appear in the story later, along with his little friend
Dalek; I will not be using white or black lanterns...yet
CK4eva; No, I am not doing that yet, I have
Back in New York
"So, these power ring things..." Superboy said, a bit shaken, as Megan was struggling to pull hers off. They were in an outdoor cafe, taking a well deserved break with drinks and sandwiches.
How they are paying for it...the Intergang who turned into a Blockbuster (Who had been knocked out and was being held on a police surrounded barge in the center of the East River until a Justice Leaguer, or Hero Leaguer, could take him to Belle Reve, as the guy could not testify in court)
Of course, they did get a discount...this was the Big Hero Cafe, home of the Hero Hamburger...and discount equals no kids mentioning the place to the bat with the lawyers.
"Are bad news" Static frowned "Ring a Ting Ting must somehow have some connection to...whatever it is that powers the Lantern rings"
"The rings seem to be different" Rocket noted "Green rings, the ones that everyone is familiar with, and the one Static has, runs on Willpower. But mine works with hope"
"Mine gets stronger when I care for someone" Megan noted, still trying to remove the ring, martian strength not helping.
"The one that was on me is rage...horrible rage" Superboy seemed ill at the thought.
"All the Justice League is busy around the world" Rocket frowned, seeing one of the 'Hero Cam's' in the establishment showing the Hawks in an air fight with a giant, flying turtle mutant monster in Japan, then a image of Atom Smasher dealing with a few giant robots in Syria, and the Syrian military. "Hero League too, this is all on us to fix"
The Bronx New York
Even in modern times, there were still the unfortunate
A boy dressed in black cloths with silver accents that would probably be fashionable back where Wonder Woman came from, was wandering the streets, as if not really caring, or knowing, how dangerous it was. His eyes, his silver gray eyes, seemed too old for him.
"You'd think in a few thousand years they'd have repaired this...problem" he commented to himself as he noted the poverty in the Bronx with a frown "albeit, its better than my visit in the 1890's..."
He stopped mid step, as he looked over his shoulder "You're sneaking skills are impressive, but not refined" he turned to spy a blond haired girl who looked and dressed in the modern styles...his mother would not approve of it.
"What are you doing here?"
He frowned "Its called...walking. As long as I tell mom, I can go out from home once in a while, and I do like to see how things change..." he looked over towards Manhattan, seeing with his enhanced eyesight "Um...weren't there two towers over there...twin towers?"
The girl looked at him funny "Your...dumb. They got blown up years ago..."
"I don't get out a lot, mom doesn't like me 'in man's world'...and your the dumb one here..."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY!"
"Because, your about to rob me...and not only am I not carrying mortal cash" a silver orb formed in his hands, forming into a large silver bow, that formed a shape like a crescent moon.
The girl blinked, before she smashed her fists together "A tough one..."
He smirked "You will find I am indeed, tough..." 'Demigoddess'
Elsewhere in New York
Banks, the basic, every villain spot to rob. Containing massive amounts of money, banks are always targeted by evil doers.
But normally, they do not have the power of orange light.
A duo of thugs with orange rings, rings of avarice, were pulling the giant wheel shaped door that all banks seemed to have for some reason...even when they know villains love blowing it up, ripping it off, ect...
Their orange fists were pulling, pulling...
When a yellow blur smashed into them
And no, not a user of fear...
"Aw man, where is everyone getting these things" Kid Flash, who had not gotten a ring as he lacks a defining emotion of the available ones, he doesn't have immense rage, avarice, he doesn't induce fear, has average amounts of hope and will, and lacks enough compassion or love to use those rings.
All in all, he's a dud
The avarice, which means greed, users growled, as their rings sent energy constructs flying at Kid Flash, who speedily dodged them, before he slammed into them, knocking one down while the other formed a sword with his ring, slicing it at Kid Flash...
As a green wall formed to block it
From the wall, a fist extended, smashing into the criminal and knocking him down to the ground. With two beat crooks, Kid Flash turned to see who he had saved him.
"AW MAN! THIS ISN'T ALPHA CENTAURI...I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN THAT LEFT!"
It was a Green Lantern...but this was no human.
It was a walking, dumb sounding, dog.
"Um...this is Earth...um..."
"G'Nort, of the Green Lantern Corp...um take me to your leader?"
Kid Flash sighed, that was such a...him answer.
'Wally...!'
'Megan!'
"AWW! VOICES IN MY HEAD!"
Meanwhile, a lair of evil yellow stuff
A cage of yellow energy, generated by fear, restrained Robin, Aqualad, Artemis, Zatanna (Who was gagged) and an unconscious Terra. The rest of them had their weapons disposed of.
The rings that Terra and Robin had, hope and fear (What, Robin was trained by Batman, who is a master of fear even Ibiki would be impressed with...of course he has no desire to use fear as a weapon against normal people outside of an interrogation), had been destroyed, on capture and when Robin refused to join Sinestro.
Said devil person was noting Robin with a sad look.
"You would have made a fine champion for the Sinestro Corps...oh well" he noted the dozens of people bearing his rings, enforcers who did indeed wish to join him.
Could any of them be his own Hal Jordan's? John Stewarts? Or other legendary lantern heroes. If not, they would make good background lanterns, lanterns who served him but he would care little about them, kill them off randomly when the plot needed tragic losses and be basically nameless background characters.
He turned to his followers "COME MY MINIONS! TODAY, THE SINESTRO CORPS WILL REIGN TERROR AND DESTROY THE UNITED STATES TO SHOW THE POWER OF FEAR!"
"But sir" a nameless minion spoke up "You still have tickets to see Wicked next week"
Sinestro paused "Good point...THEN WE SHALL DESTROY CHINA!"
"But I like Pandas and chinese food"
Sinestro groaned, he needed better minions "THEN WE WILL DESTROY ALL OF CHINA THAT LACKS BLACK AND WHITE BEARS AND CHEAP FOOD!"
"YAHHHHH!"
"好了，情况是正式的翠菊。是的，我可以说中国" Dick muttered to himself in Chinese
Meanwhile, flying over New York
Having made contact with Wally and G'Nort, Wally was running along below the flyers, or in Superboy's case, the jumper (Superboy refusing to use a power ring to fly, after his 'fun' with a red ring).
Flying next to him, Rocket was asking G'nort if he had seen their missing friends.
"Um, was one of your friends a guy with gills? Because I sort of saw him get abducted by people with yellow power rings"
They all gave him extreme looks
"WHY DIDN'T YOU STOP HIM!"
"Because I was being chased by cats!"
"BUT YOUR A DOG!"
"So?"
Static beat his head against a nearby wall "we are sooo doomed"
"Oh come on Virgil, have hope?"
"Is that the ring talking?" Kid Flash asked.
"OH NO!" G'Nort freaked out
"What!"
"I FORGOT TO CHARGE MINE..." G'nort's glowing greenness flickered and caused him to crash to the top of a building, groaning pitifully as the others just gave him odd looks.
"Um..." was this guy really a Green lantern?
Muttering to himself, he pulled a green lantern (AKA, the charging device), from a pocket of space
Coughing a few times, he read from a cheat sheet on his arm
'IN BRIGHEST DAY, IN DARKNESS NIGHT
NO EVIL SHALL ESCAPE MY SIGHT
LET THOSE WHO WORSHIP EVIL'S MIGHT
BEWARE MY POWER-GREEN LANTERNS LIGHT
The ring, and thus himself, began to glow green once again, as Megan's eyes went wide.
"GUYS, I FOUND THEM!" she took off eagerly.
"Wait up Miss M!" Static yelled as he flew after her, followed by the rest of them after the eager, though still having the ring of compassion stuck to her, Martian.
Omake
Not canon
G'Nort's wrong oath
"I FORGOT TO CHARGE MINE..." G'nort's glowing greenness flickered and caused him to crash to the top of a building, groaning pitifully as the others just gave him odd looks.
"Um..." was this guy really a Green lantern?
Muttering to himself, he pulled a green lantern (AKA, the charging device), from a pocket of space
Coughing a few times, he read from a cheat sheet on his arm
'I pledge myself to the Goddess Artemis
I turn my back on the company of men,
Accept eternal maidenhood,
And join the Hunt'
He was then fried by a silver bolt of lightning
Megan frowned "That wasn't the right oath..."
"I think he was thinking of the wrong world" Static frowned
"That was advanced science to a level that even Dr. Fate failed to achieve.."
ZAP
"OW! STUPID SCIENCE!"
ZAP
Okay, so lets look at the characters
