Ok. It's time to keep going. Like I said, it'll be in this next chapter before Eddie can try and save the girls. For now, he has to fight Tyler to find them. But which one will prevail in their rematch? Let's find out, shall we? Oh and one more thing, I've added an extreme part in this. Well I think it's pretty extreme, but you can think of it in any way you want.
Eddie had been flying at top speed, wearing his Blue Lantern suit, his battery in his left hand, and was headed for Big Ben like Hans said. He came upon London and from a distance, he could see the clock tower, and knew that's where Tyler was. He took off flying again and headed for Big Ben.
On the clock tower, Tyler was sitting in front of the clock part, wearing a black t-shirt designed with a white skull and crossbones, a pair of dark blue jeans, his black combat boots, his dark brown leather jacket, and he had his long, jet-black hair tied in a ponytail behind his head.
He was just sitting there and was charging his ring.
He then look down and saw Eddie coming from underneath him, and he smiled slyly as Eddie stopped a few feet beneath him.
"Took you long enough," Tyler set his battery to his left and stood up. "I was beginning to think you weren't coming."
"I'm in no mood for games right now, Tyler. Where are they?" Eddie demanded.
"'They'?"
"Elsa and her sister, Anna."
"Her sister? That wasn't part of the plan. Hans was only supposed to take Elsa. Well, no matter. Rest assured they're both perfectly safe on Ysmault."
"Ysmault. Wait a second. You planned this, didn't you?"
"Actually Atrocitus planned it."
"I get it now. He sent that guy, Hans to kidnap Elsa, or in this case, Elsa and Anna because he knew I'd risk my life to save them. But he sent Hans because he knew I'd have no choice but to accept his challenge, and come here to fight you. So you used the girls as bait. Isn't that right?"
Tyler snapped his finger and pointed down to Eddie. "There you go. You're smarter than I took you for. But you won't be going to Ysmault. Not without an escort that is. So it's entirely up to you. We can do it the easy way, and you willingly come with me," Tyler held his right hand out. "Or if you'd rather..." He then changed into his Red Lantern uniform. "...we can also do this the hard way. It's entirely your choice."
Eddie then created a utility belt and hooked his battery on.
"Now there's an idea," Tyler said, and he did the same.
Then Eddie flew up at Tyler, and created a pole.
"Took the hard way," Tyler said as he jumped down. When he did, Eddie swung his pole, but Tyler dodged and punched Eddie up, then he flew up and blasted Eddie through the glass of Big Ben.
Eddie zoomed through and almost landed in a set of the grinding gears, but he stopped a few inches, by levitating himself in midair. He recovered and flew through the hole he made, when Tyler hit him, then he zoomed at Tyler and punched him away.
Tyler flew off a little after being hit, but then recovered himself, after he did, he flew at Eddie, and with a giant mallet, he hit Eddie, and sent him flying up, and then went up after him.
Tyler grabbed Eddie when near him, and started to crush him in a headlock.
Eddie who was being choked, elbowed Tyler in his gut, then grabbed him, and he threw him away.
Tyler recovered again and then he constructed a curved sword and then flew back to Eddie, and Eddie constructed a combat sword, and then he and Tyler clashed together. Their swordfight went on for a little while, with both Tyler and Eddie swinging their swords and blocking the other's attack.
After clashing together once more, Tyler and Eddie both blasted each other with their rings, and then both went flying back.
They recovered as quick as they were hit, and then zoomed at each other, then they both grabbed each other, and zoomed through the skies, punching, kicking, blasting, and throwing each other.
They took the fight all the way to Paris, and while still doing their same routine, Tyler got hold of Eddie, then threw him, making him slam up against the Eiffel Tower, then he tried to punch him with a big iron fist construct, but Eddie flew up, and barely avoided him.
"My turn," Eddie said, and he flew back down, with a giant boxing glove on his right hand. He got down and punched Tyler far.
Tyler flew far back, but then regained and he created 5 ninja stars, then threw them all at once at Eddie.
As Eddie flew to Tyler, he saw the sharp, flying objects coming at him, and he stopped, then created a shield at last second to block them.
Tyler grunted angrily, then constructed a morning star weapon and flew at Eddie.
Eddie saw Tyler flying at him, and he held up his shield to block his attack. Tyler kept trying to hit Eddie with his sharp weapon, but Eddie did his best, and kept blocking every attack.
After another minute of that going on and on, Eddie flew up, then he threw his shield like a Frisbee, which hit Tyler in his gut. Tyler started to fall from the air, but he quickly recovered and constructed another morning star, then flew at Eddie.
Eddie created a war hammer and flew down to Tyler and they slammed their weapons. Both of them kept slamming their morning star and war hammer constructs together, and they both kept blocking the other's attack.
They zoomed through the air, still slamming and avoiding attacks with their weapons.
It went on for an hour, until Eddie was thrown to the ground of the Roman's Coliseum, and then Tyler started to dive down to him, with a knife construct.
Eddie was able to dodge Tyler once more, and Tyler's knife got stuck in the ground. While Tyler tried to pull it out, Eddie constructed an extendo boxing glove, and he punched Tyler away with it, making him hit the wall.
Eddie then shot a lasso at Tyler, which wrapped itself around his waist, underneath his arms, and then Eddie started to swing him around and around, until Eddie threw him up into the air. Then he flew up to Tyler, then he punched him in his chest, making him go zooming far away.
After Tyler recovered, Eddie shot a beam from his ring, then he took control of Tyler's hands, and made him start to hit himself in the face.
"Why are you hitting yourself? Stop hitting yourself," Eddie was about to laugh at that, until Tyler created an anvil, and knocked Eddie far away with it.
As Eddie was flying back, he shot a rocket from his ring at Tyler, who was chasing him, and it hit and sent him back.
Eddie then flew back to Tyler and grabbed him, then they both started to zoom through the air again, and started punching and kicking each other.
After a few minutes of doing that, they knocked each other back, then they both charged up their rings and slammed their fists together, which charged up a blast, then it sent them both flying back when it unleashed.
They both recovered and then Tyler flew up higher than Eddie, and then he shot a blast from his ring. Eddie countered by shooting a blast of his own.
They both shot their blasts from their rings, and then they sent it up into the air, then Tyler created a giant battle axe, and attempted to hit Eddie with it, but Eddie constructed an anvil, and blocked it. Then Eddie flew up and he and Tyler grabbed hold of each other and they zoomed through the air and continued fighting.
They took it all the way to San Francisco. They'd taken the fight out and away from the town and were punching, kicking, and blasting each other, while high up in the skies.
Tyler grabbed Eddie by his neck, then zoomed through the air, while grasping him, then he slammed him up to the side of a moving plane.
Eddie kicked Tyler away, then flew towards him, but Tyler shot a big blast from his ring, and sent Eddie flying away, and he crashed through the plane's windows.
The high wind and pressure of the plane was so strong, it sent Eddie flying out, and then he flew back towards the windows, where he constructed replacements for them.
He then looked straight and saw Tyler coming at him, then he created a giant baseball bat.
"Batter up!" Eddie yelled, as he hit Tyler away.
Then Eddie flew up and landed on top of the plane, where he construted restraints on his feet to keep him in place.
Tyler recovered after being hit by the bat, then he towards the plane and then went in front of it, and then he shot two rockets at the plane, which hit the turbines and destroyed them.
The plane started to shake and then lowered.
"You maniac!" Eddie yelled. He dissolved his restraints and flew towards Tyler.
"It's me or the plane, Eddie!" Tyler called to him. "If you follow me, that thing will crash into the airport." Tyler pointed down and Eddie looked to see the airport wasn't far. "But it's entirely up to you. Take your pick."
Eddie looked back down to the descending plane and he knew he had to do something, and then he flew down and Tyler flew off in another direction.
Eddie flew over to the cockpit and broke open the windows, because the winds and pressure were more level, because the plane was getting lower.
Sitting in the pilot chairs, both the captain and co-pilot were both wearing dark blue uniforms, pilot hats, and white shirts and black ties, underneath their blue suit jackets.
The captain had dark green eyes, pale skin, and salt and pepper hair. The co-pilot had ocean blue eyes, he had a shaved reddish brown beard, and his hair was the same color.
"I can't level the plane out. What's going on?" the captain asked Eddie.
"The turbines are destroyed," Eddie replied. "That guy in red shot rockets at them, and blew them."
"What do we do?" asked the co-pilot.
"Leave this to me." And Eddie flew back behind the plane, then he used his ring and shot a rope construct around the plane. Eddie pulled on it and tried to level the plane, but the rope snapped after just 2 seconds. "Why did I think that'd work?" Then he flew back into the cockpit.
"Okay. So my plan didn't work, like I thought it would," Eddie said to the captain and co-pilot.
"Got a plan B?" asked the pilot.
Eddie then thought for a minute. "As a matter of fact, I do. But I'm gonna need your help."
"What can we do?" asked the captain.
"Keep the plane as level as you can," Eddie then constructed a headset. "Keep in contact with me, and follow my orders."
Both the pilots put their headsets on.
"Better also make sure all the passengers are strapped down," Eddie gave a reminder.
The captain nodded and pulled out the speakerphone. "Attention passengers. We're gonna be experiencing a rough landing. Make sure you're all strapped down as secure as you can be, and hold on tight."
"All right. Let's hope this works," Eddie said as he flew out. He looked and saw the airstrip was getting closer and closer. Then he started to charge up his ring, and then blasted the plane, which made a field of blue energy surround the whole thing. "Pilots, pull up a little!" He said through the headset construct.
The pilots did as they were told and they struggled to pull the plane up.
Eddie started to push using the field of blue energy to keep the plane steady, then it started to lean right.
"Bank left!"
The pilots turned the plane left, leveling it out again.
"All right! The landing pad is coming up. Bring out the landing gear!"
The captain pulled the lever, releasing the landing gear. And then, in just seconds, the plane landed, but was still going too fast to stop.
Eddie looked behind him and saw the plane was going right for the command tower. He started to make the field around the plane bigger and put all his strength into it, to stop it. He struggled and both pilots slammed on the brakes, and Eddie kept pushing and pushing, making his suit rip on the sleeves and waistline. As they all worked together, the plane slowed down more and more, until it finally stopped, only inches from the tower.
Eddie took the field off the plane and flew back into the cockpit, exhausted.
The pilots got out of their seats as Eddie flew back in.
"That was amazing, kid! You did it!" the captain said excitedly.
Eddie then started to collapse and the pilots caught him as he fell forward.
The captain opened the door, and they moved Eddie into first class.
"This is the man who saved us all," the co-pilot spoke out gesturing to an unconscious Eddie.
All the passengers got up and started to help the pilots move Eddie into a seat.
They sat him down and circled around for everyone to see him.
"Is he all right?" one of the female passengers asked.
"He's young," said the captain. "He's just barely in his early 20s."
Eddie grunted a little and slowly opened his eyes, and he looked and saw all the passengers looking happily at him.
"Wh- Where am I?" Eddie asked.
"You're on board the plane, kid," the co-pilot answered. "You saved all these innocent people."
"Your uniform," one of the male passengers said. "Are you one of those Green Lantern's?"
"Actually, sir. I'm a Blue Lantern. An entirely different thing. And that guy who almost brought the plane down, he was a Red Lantern."
"What's your name, son?" the captain asked, coming face to face with Eddie.
"Eddie. Eddie J Michaels."
"Thank you, Eddie. You were really brave out there," the captain thanked.
He held out his hand and Eddie shook it. The co-pilot also came and shook his hand, then a bunch of the other passengers followed.
Then all of a sudden, the doors to the cockpit were blown off.
Eddie stood up and the passengers cleared for him to see Tyler, just standing there.
"So you actually did it. Bravo," said Tyler.
Eddie who was barely able to stand, had started to walk to Tyler.
"No more games, Eddie. You're coming with me, one way or another."
"Over my dead body. I'm not going down without a fight."
"Looks to me like you're in no condition to fight."
Eddie started to raise his ring, but he could hardly keep his arm up, because he used all his strength in stopping the plane.
Tyler then shot a rocket at Eddie, sending him flying back, and knocking him out.
As Tyler started to walk up to Eddie, the passengers started to surround and cover Eddie, but Tyler slapped them all away with a big hand construct.
Tyler walked over and kneeled down to Eddie, then he took his ring and battery off of him. "You won't be needing these once Atrocitus is done with you." He constructed a chain around Eddie's ring and he threw it around his neck. Then he took Eddie's battery and hooked it onto his utility belt. After that he picked Eddie up and threw him over his shoulder, and then flew out of the plane, and into space.
Outside of Earth's atmosphere, Tyler flew far from Earth and then opened a portal. He flew through and the portal closed, taking them to Ysmault.
Uh-oh. Looks like Eddie is in trouble now. Who would've thought all this lust for power, would make someone like Tyler do something as cruel as to bring down a moving plane? Well I guess when you're greedy like that, it can be pretty believable. In the next chapter is when Eddie will try and save the girls by fighting Atrocitus. But will he succeed or fail? Find out next time. Please read, review, and enjoy.
