I'M BACK EVERYONE!
Spectrum Wars prologue: Emotions (Part 1):
"You shall all pay when you've gone head-to-head with Despero! I see all, and all that-!"
"Would you shut up, Desprite-o." Garfield told as he and Katma leads the purple alien to the maximum-security galactic prison. They delivered him to the Centauri police "Here, he's yours."
"Thank you for the assistance, Green Lanterns." Kai comments as he and his partner Cron retrieve Despero into the space prison.
"Man, dealing with the Tattoo Man at Coast City was better." Garfield states as Katma calls for him.
"We should go back to Oa, Galius is there with a report." Katma states as they fly off.
"Old grumpy cue-ball? Man, that guy always gets all riled up." Garfield replied as they headed back to Oa.
As the two Lanterns went to central, they've joined with the other Lanterns to hear Galius's story "What's cue-ball blabbering on about?" Garfield inquired.
"He's saying something crazy about being saved by some voice." Arkkus replied to the young Lantern.
"There I was, patrolling my space sector until some outlaws make a mess of trouble!" Galius Zed speaks, he is an alien that's whole head makes up for his body with two arms and three stubby legs "But as they pinned me down, I thought I almost lost my life, until a unknown voice told me to never lose hope! That voice gave me the will to win the fight!"
"You say a voice told you not to lose your hope and it's words gave you the will needed to survive?" A Guardian asked the Lantern who nod his head in response. "All of you leave, now!" The Guardian ordered in a strangly fearful tone.
As all the Lanterns leave the area the young human Lantern and his Korugar girlfriend stayed behind to see what was causing their leader's such fear.
"This cannot be." A Guardian commented in shock.
"But it is." Another replied to the first. "A voice telling our Lanterns to not give up his 'hope.' it is as we feared."
"The great war with the other Lanterns of the emotional spectrum starts." A female Guardian finished for her fellow immortal. "When green and yellow clash, the other emotional Lanterns will join in the war."
'Other Lanterns?' Garfield thought as he and Katma flew away to speak to their friends.
"So, Guy, how are you going to ask out Ice?" Booster Gold asked the ginger haired Lantern while hanging out on the moon next to the American flag just as Skeets takes their picture.
"It takes time, Carter." Guy replied as he crosses his arms "With my work as a Lantern, I've got bigger dealings than what I can chew."
"Like what?" Booster asked.
"Well, I have to take orders from the elf, then do combat practice with Kilowag, and then have to listen to Sinestro's lectures." Guy said the last part made Booster look grim.
"Sinestro? Why does that name ring a bell?", Gold wondered as he rubs his chin.
"Maybe because he is practically elf boy's daddy." Guy grumbled as he turned towards the Earth. "I never would have guessed that I'd be some kind of space cop and ever get to see the Earth from this point of view."
"Yeah, it's pretty amazing." Booster Gold agreed as he completely forgot about Sinestro and why that name bugged him. "Maybe we should go on a double date with Fire and Ice?"
"My man, you are speaking my language." Guy commented as they prepared to head back to Earth.
"Friend Raven, maybe we should part take in the ritual of going to the mall and buying clothes that will catch the eye of the boy that we like?" Starfire questioned as she sat by her best friend.
'Clothes? Garfield's eye?' Raven thought in a slight blush that her hood covered up. "I would like that, Starfire." She agreed, which shocked her friend.
"Raven actually going shopping!?" Beetle exclaimed "Please don't tell me it's the end of the world, again!"
"Or Raven must be replaced by a doppelgänger robot!" Cyborg states as the two get their heads smacked by Raven's magic.
"Or I just want to go out for a change." Raven confirmed as she had an unknown thought in her head.
'Do not give up hope, Raven.' the calm voice told her which spooked Raven.
'Who's there!?' Raven asked mentally.
'Do not worry child, your fate will come soon.' the voice told her as it fades from her mind.
"Are you okay, Raven?" Robin asked as earlier he wonders if Starfire was referring to him as the boy she wants to capture his eye.
"Oh! She must really like Friend Garfield, if my best friend is actually doing the shopping with me again!" Starfire yelled in joy as she took the demoness in her hands and flew off with the book that was in her hand falling to the floor.
"My book!" Raven yelled. "Don't any of you touch it!" She warned.
"What are you doing?" Cyborg asked his best friend as he apporached the book. "That is Raven's book, you should not touch her book."
"I just want to see what she is reading." Blue Beetle replied as he picked it up and saw the magazine inside of the book. "Sneaky." He chuckled before he read the article cover. "How to please your man. In general...a-a...and sexual." He read before he tossed the book away and sat back down.
"I warned you." Cyborg gloated.
"Spectrum war?" Ch'p asked as he, G'Nort Arkkus, Sinestro, Galius, Boodikka, Iolande, the rest of Garfield's girlfriends as well as the other Lanterns all gathered around in Garfield's place as they discuss what Gar and Katma talked about.
"Yeah, we've over heard what the Guardians said and it got something to do with these other Lanterns." Gar replied "Are there really other Lanterns with other emotional spectrum?"
"Not that I have ever heard of." Sinestro flawlessy lied to the young boy. 'Maybe when I start this war I can get some of these other Lanterns to help in my cause. Before I destroy them as well.'
"Same here kid." Kilowog replied as all of the Lanterns replied in the same way.
"I wonder what kind of Lanterns there will be? Maybe jealousy or love or something like that?" Garfield commented as he thought about what was to come.
"Is hope an emotion?" Galius asked his fellow Lanterns.
"Who knows." Garfield shrugged. "But does that voice mean that you are being selected for their new corps?"
"Not sure, lad." Galius said as he floats around "What that voice told me was more of a pep talk; Things can always happen for a reason. If this hope spectrum chose me, I don't know if I should step down to the G.L. Corps or not. But aye say I'm always going to be a Green Lantern until I die!"
"Talking like an old timer." Arkkus states.
"I bet the other Lanterns are nice!" G'Nort quipped as Ch'p sigh.
"Yeah, but best bet is that they may not be nice." Ch'p replied "Maybe some."
"Well then, we've gotta prepare ourselves. The Guardians also mentioned yellow, meaning there could exist a Yellow Corps." Katma comments.
"When yellow and green wage war, the other Lanterns will join in the war." Garfield stated as thought on the Guardian's words. "Should we possibly warn the citizens of our sectors? If a war is on the horizon we should possibly inform them."
"Unless the Guardians tell us to I don't think informing the whole galaxy that a war is coming and there isn't a damn thing that we can do about it is a wise bet." Kilowog snorted at the human Lantern.
"Frag! Somebody needs to tell Hal, John and Guy!" Garfield exclaimed as he remembered that the three human Lanterns are all on dates. "Carol will kill me if I interrupt her date with Hal! Shayera and Tora don't worry about me, they're let me explain."
"Well for now, we wait." Sinestro states as he places his hand onto Garfield's shoulder "We shall see how the war will play it out until the time comes."
It was at that point Garfield felt a shiver running down his spine when Sinestro touched his shoulder. He doesn't know why but his instincts were screaming when he's near his father figure "You're right, Sinestro." 'What was that bad feeling? I'm sure it was nothing.' He thought as he smiled up at his father figure. 'I wonder if I should warn the Titans about the war?'
Arisia looked at her boyfriend and was unnerved by him. 'Garfield, always said that fear is a powerful weapon, does that mean that he will start this war?' She asked herself as she knows that yellow is the color of fear. 'Please don't start a war, Garfield.'
"I need to go tell the guys about what we found out." Garfield commented as he stood up and began to fly away when a green-hand construct stopped him. "What?"
"I'll go with you." Soranik stated as she flew beside her boyfriend. "Maybe if you have a female companion this Carol won't kill you."
"Sounds like a plan." Garfield replied as they flew off together, as the other Lantern Titans that the human is dating get called away to their own sectors.
"What about this one, Friend Raven?" Starfire asked as she came out of the dressing room in a red dress that was practitcally a second piece of skin on her.
"You can't wear something like that in public, Starfire." Raven commented as she ushered her friend back into the dressing room.
"But, it will get Friend Garfield's attention." Starfire objected to her friend. "How are we going to be noticed as a possible mate for him if we do not get his attention?"
"You were Garfield's first kiss and I'm sure that with someone as beautiful as you will have no problem attracting his attention." Raven stated before her voice softens considerbily. "Unlike me. What chance do I have to be noticed with you and all the other beautiful aliens in his sights. I'll never be good enough."
"You are good enough, Friend Raven." Starfire told her with a smile "You just have to be more confident with yourself." then suddenly their t-coms ring as it shows an image of Garfield "It's him!"
"Hey Star, Rae." Garfield spoke "Listen, me and Soranik are heading to the Tower so we can talk to you about something. I need all of the Titans present to hear this."
"We will be there, Friend Garfield." Starfire chipped as she ended the communication. "We need to get back to the tower, NOW!" she shouted as she quickly payed for the dress and left with her armor in her arms. "He has important news for everyone! Maybe he will take us as his mates!"
"Then why would he need the other Titans there?" Raven asked in a monotone voice which deflated the Tamaranean. 'Garfield is in for quite the looks when he sees Starfire in that dress.'
"When will they be here?" Garfield impatiently asked the Titans as he paced back and forth in the window of the common room. "This is by far important."
"I've never seen an amigo like this before." Blue Beetle commented as he and his best friend watched the green teen pace.
"I don't see why you can't tell us now." Robin told him "I mean, I can just inform Starfire and Raven-"
"No, we need everyone present." Garfield interrupts the leader "Star needs to hear this because it will affect the whole entire universe."
"What affects the whole universe, Friend Garfield?" Starfire asked in a rushed tone which caused everybody to look at her and their eyes bug out at the skintight red dress.
"It's about a wa-" Garfield got out before he turned around and got a look at the red dress and his higher brain functions seemed to have stopped as he mouth hung open.
"See I told you." Raven commented with a ghost of a smile on her lips and a little sad that she couldn't make the Lantern do that. 'Terra, was right, I'm not good enough.'
'Do not give up hope, Raven.' the voice repeated through Raven's mind.
"Ahem." Soranik spoke as she giggled as Garfield was brought back to reality "Um wow Kori, you look beautiful in that dress." He states with a blush.
"Why thank you, Friend Garfield." Starfire replied as she smiled that she finally got Gar's attention, which didn't go unnoticed from Robin.
'She was wearing that for him!?' Robin mentally growled as jealousy rears in his head 'What does she see in him?!'
"Garfield, what about the thing we should warn them about?" Soranik told him she was thinking of wearing a dress for Garfield.
"What thing?" Garfield inquired as his teenage hormones take over his mind.
"The WAR." Soranik clarified for her boyfriend as she gets annoyed. "The other Lanterns who make war when green and yellow fight."
"Oh!" Garfield yelped in embarassment. "That info! Katma and I spied on the Guardians and apparently there is a prophecy that when yellow and green wage war, the other emotional spectrums will join in the galactic war."
"Other Lantern Corpes of the other emotions spectrums? What are the other emotions?" Raven questioned her crush.
"We don't know." Garfield confessed. "A Lantern was told by a voice to not lose his hope and when the Guardian heard that they ordered all of us to leave them so that is when we spied on the Guardians."
'I was told to not lose hope.' Raven thought as she felt a sense of confusion from her best friend. 'What is wrong with her?'
"That is most interesting, Friend Garfield." Starfire commented in a casual tone. 'Is that voice telling me to not give up on Garfield one of these Lanterns?'
"If it's a war, than the Titans-" Robin was about to finish, but Garfield interrupts him.
"No, I cannot let you guys get in the crossfire." Garfield states "Who knows how many other Lanterns are out there. It could bring dangerous emotions like greed, anger, or maybe fear."
"Garfield, you've always have the philosophy that fear is a way to act, since bravery can't exist without fear." Soranik told him.
"Fear should be a balance with bravery, not conquer." Garfield replied "Everyone has a fear, Soranik. You feared of losing your father all over again, but to counteract fear, we must be brave for what's coming."
"Actually, I can think of what the emotional spectrum can be." Raven states as all looked at her "My emotions are, how do I say this, sentient with different colors of cloaks, and my brave side is green."
"If you can tell us the possibilities, I may lend you the Book of Oa, the bible of the G.L. Corps." Garfield told her with a smile on his face, which makes Raven's heart fluttered.
"S-Sure." Raven replied with a soft smile.
'Ask him to come here!' Happy begged her original. 'We can show if what color goes to which emotions!'
'That is a good idea, but I don't think yellow is the color for knowledge, for it is not an emotions.' Wisdon commented which made Happy...well happy.
'I will ask.' Raven told her emotions. "If you would like I can show you what I mean?" She asked the Lantern.
The two Lanterns shared a look and nod their heads. "Sounds like a plan, Raven." Soranik replied for both of them. "One of us needs to get the information while the other," She said as she looked at her boyfriend. "Gawks at Starfire and yourself." She giggled.
"Then let's go to my room." Raven stated as they leave the common room. "Only Lanterns Garfield, and Soranik!"
"What about me?", Starfire asked with a quivered lip.
"Fine, but don't touch anything. You know what happened last time." Raven complied.
"What about-" Blue Beetle attempted to ask but gets cut off.
"NO!" Raven roared.
"Why are we in your room?" Garfield asked as he admired the room. "Kinda creepy, but I like it. Has an Torkma feel to it."
"This is a portal to my mind, and where my emotions are held." Raven explained as she feared that he will find her weird...or creepy.
"What do you mean by hold your emotions?" Soranik asked as she eyes the mirror.
"I was raised in another dimension called Azarath and..." Raven then shook her head "You know what? I'll show you." She said as she touches her mirror as a black vortex appeared.
"Well, this is going to be a long ride." Garfield states as he and the three girls enter the vortex to the mirror.
