Chapter 3: Razers Edge
Razer sat in the holding cell in silence, repeatedly watching the recent planet he helped destroy. Kilowog wanted to interagate him first and honestly, I didn't have it in me to object. We all walked over to the cell but Hal and I stayed behind.
"You like looking at that stuff, Poozer? You proud of what you did?" Razer didn't even acknowledge him. It was like talking to a wall.
"How many of you Red Lanterns are out there? And why are you hunting Green Lanterns?" Getting the same response as before, Kilowog walked into the cell, grabbed Razer by his shirt, and pushed him into the wall behind them.
" Answer me!"
"Easy there, Kilowog! This thing's a rental, remember?" Hal intervened pushing Razer back down to his spot, to pull Kilowog away into another room entirely. I stayed behind to try and reason with Razer.
" The Red Lanterns abandoned you, Razer. They left you for dead." I walked into the cell and sat next to him," I think that calls for a little payback, don't you? Help us, please. I know there's good in you. Tell us what you know. " Looking deep into his eyes, I could see that he was confused and lost, but most of all hurt.
"I do hate the Red Lanterns for what they've made me. But that doesn't mean I stopped hating Green Lanterns. It just means I have more people to hate." He said looking away from me and back at the projection. I understood that he wouldn't help us in the way we hoped. Standing up from my seat I walked over towards the control panel and turned on the barrier field to the cell. Looking back I sighed in disappointment, I wanted to help him but there wasn't much I could do. I continued walking to the cockpit and into the meeting between the guardians and the rest of the crew.
"Hal Jordan stole the Interceptor. And you wish to reward him by giving him command of it?" Apa exclaimed looking at Ganthet as if he grew three heads.
"Appa, we have no choice. They are our only line of defense on the Frontier. Besides, at that distance, there's very little we can do to punish Jordan, anyway."
"All in favor of letting Hal Jordan and the rest of his crew operate the interceptor?" 13 out of 25 raised their hands. "All those opposed?" 12 other hands raised as the 13 went down.
"Then, we are of one mind. The crew of the Interceptor is tasked with gathering intelligence on the Red Lantern threat and taking reasonable action to slow their advance." Ganthet Annoced.
"We may be of one mind, but only on the protest. Now. What is the status of the Red Lantern's ring?" Apa asked
" Safe. In a stasis box." I replied walking to my seat in front of the Navigation panel.
"Yeah, the ring doesn't take that much room. Unfortunately, Razer does. What do you suggest we do with him?" Hal questioned looking at Razer and then back at Apa.
" Even you know your duty, Hal Jordan. He must be imprisoned."
"Fools!" was said loudly within the science cell. Someone wasn't happy with the new arrangement or procedure.
" For what I have done, they should execute me." Razer spat out violently.
"I do not understand your desire for self-destruction. If one regrets one's actions, one should find a way to make restitution." Aya tried to reason looking at him through an artificial orb that was stationed at the door.
" I'm not about to debate this with a computer!"
" Any orders?" I asked, looking at Hal.
"Yeah, find me a prison. It's not like we can just drop Razer off on a handy Lantern science. Frontier Lanterns use privatized penitentiaries."
" I can compile all the detailed places" Aya tried but was interrupted by Hal
"That won't be necessary, Aya. Just something nearby."
"But nothing too nice," said Kilowog with a scowl on his face. This was not gonna be an easy ride.
"Wow, she took you at your word about the "nothing too nice" thing," I said walking out of the interceptor first and taking a look at my surroundings. The walls were made up of a solid brown rock. But looked to have had holes drilled into it manually. There were giant cobwebs littered everywhere. The room itself was cold and repulsive.
"It ain't that bad" Kilowog defended himself
" Are you kidding? This place gives me the creeps. It's like fear radiates from the walls. It's a dark, dank, repulsive hall full of...." Hal trailed on walking forwards but not truly paying attention/
Looking straight at the corridor in front of us, I noticed three black masses coming towards us. It didn't take long to see 8 legs moving in synchronized movement.
"Spiders!" I yelled out backing away a little.
" I was gonna say "rats", but Oh" he stopped and looked where I was looking and saw that I was correct. Three giant black spiders with spears were coming towards us.
"Well, well Green Lanterns! It's been a long time since we hosted a prisoner for our esteemed colleagues in justice." The middle one announced, walking towards Hal. the more he walked towards us the more is scotched closer to Kilowog.
"I take it you're the warden?" Hal Asked.
"I am Myglom. I operate this prison on behalf of the Spider Guild. Aah, it appears you have something for me. " He looked towards the Razer in the shackles that Kilowog conjured.
"This piece of work is Razer. We have documented evidence of his crimes against sentient beings"
"Oh, I'm quite confident he's guilty. No one has ever escaped from this facility. I'm very proud of that But I'm even more proud of our rehabilitation program. You'll find that nearly 100% of our former guests never returned to a life of crime." He praised looking at me, deep in my eyes.
"Well, I'm sold! Myglom, we hereby officially remand custody of Razer to your care." He pulled Razer towards the guards. Letting the shackles disappear the spiders on the side of Myglom grabbed him and took him towards his new cell. Razer looked back and straight towards me. I was filled with regret not because I had to do this. But because I wasn't able to help him and get him to talk.
"That's one Red Lantern down, more where that came from," Kilowog said as he walked back onto the ship.
Once we left the prison we all went to the cockpit to start our search for a new red lantern.
" I don't know about you, but I'm gonna sleep a whole lot easier knowing that guy ain't on board. Now we can get back to nailing those Red'" A flash of black moved across the window fast in front of Kilowog. "Lanterns. Did you see that?"
"What? Out the window? In space?" Hal replied looking at him confused and going back to his task.
"There! Right there! Right, where?" Kilowog got up so face his chair fell and rushed to where the black thing was looking for it again. "I am not crazy! I saw something there!"
" What is up with you?" I asked Kilowog concerned when the black mass fell on the window scaring all of us.
"Aaaah"
We all rushed out of the ship towards the window looking for the mass.
"Fan out. Our hitchhiker's hiding somewhere." I ordered. I flew towards the engine and used my ring as a scanner for any foreign objects. He flew past me towards Kilowog following it I bumped into Kilowog and Hal bumped into me shortly after.
"Will you stay out of my way?" Kilowog yelled looking between Hal and I.
"We're going about this all wrong! Whatever it is, it's intelligent. It's watching us and staying one step ahead." I yelled out.
"Why are you yelling at me?"
"To cause a distraction, so we can do this!" both me and Hal grabbed the thing only for it to wrap itself around Hal's arm. Both Kilowog and I tried pulling it off, but it just screamed in pain. Giving up on that plan I created a box around his arm trapping it in there, but making sure Hal could get his arm out. Once it was secure I took a good look at it and noticed it looked like a purple starfish. I had one eye and one long tooth hanging out. I brought it inside and set it in the science cell that once housed Razer.
"OK, squid, start talking. Kilowog here loves seafood and has a big appetite." Hal Started looking straight at our prisoner.
"What?" Kilowog said looking at Hal and then at me for an explanation
"It's an old interrogation method from Earth. Good cop, hungry cop." I started kneeling on the floor to get a better look at the starfish.
"Goggan will not go back! Cannot go back! Destroy me, but do not take me back to the grim rock! To live all days like my worst!" the prisoner yelled out.
"Great ugly and nuts!" Kilowog deadpanned
"You escaped from the Spider Guild's prison," I asked standing back up.
"Yes with this!" He pointed to his tooth, "Goggan tunneled twelve years! Me sane, sane! Goggan rid the airshaft. Then you! Still sane"
"You shouldn't have bothered, nut job! Cause you're just going right back to prison, where you belong!" Kilowg exclaimed stepping closer to Goggan mencingly.
"No Please, no! Mercy! Not back to Nightmare Rock! Goggan lives his pain there. Torture Goggan is a child there, and old. The worst of fates! Again and again" Both me and Hal looked at each other in understanding and towards Kilowog.
"What? The escaped con would say anything to stay out of prison!" Kilowog Defended with his arms crossed.
"And if he's telling the truth?" I asked putting one hand on my hip and cocking it to the side,
"Razer's worse than a criminal. If the spiders wanna torture him, let 'em!"
"It's our job, our duty to serve and protect. Even if they're criminals." I responded staring dead into his eyes with my white ones.
"Intriguing! The criminals must be punished. Surely prisoners deserve their fate." Aya asked after overhearing our conversation.
"They deserve justice, which sometimes involves punishment. But not torture." I replied as I kept staring at Kilowog.
"Look We've got to take this back, anyway, so We'll have a look around" Hal interrupted making me look at him in agreement.
"OK." Kilowog gave up "But even if there is something wrong with the prison, it's not like Myglom's gonna let us see it! They'll clean up their act as soon as they see us coming!" that's when I finally understood what Hal meant.
"That's why they're not going to see us coming," I said smirking.
"Please, don't say it"
"We're going to break into prison." Hal finished before I could. We walked back into the cock pit and started our route back to "Nightmare Rock". Once we landed in a secluded and hidden spot, we all walked to the elevator that leads to the ramp.
" It's worse than death! Infinity upon infinity You mustn't go!" Goggan tried to warn us.
"Don't worry, Goggan, just taking a quick look around. Dinner's in two hours. If we're not back, start without us, because we're probably dead." Hal joked back at him. He looked towards me.
" Rory it might be best to stay here and guard Goggan."
" But you'll need my help more."
" And you afraid of Spiders." I paused in thought and realized I wasn't much help with my fear. I complied and stayed with Goggan.
"They're dead by now. We must leave, leave before we're found!" Goggan exclaimed as he paced in his cell
"No, there is not, they are perfectly fine. We will continue to wait." I responded
" The one said he'd be back before dinner, two hours ago! Dinner time has passed. Dead!"
" There is a high probability that Hal was attempting to be humorous," I said getting up from my seat and walking towards the cell.
"If they're not dead yet, they will be soon! Worse than dead, even! "
"Unacceptable. Action must be taken to rescue the Green Lanterns. Even at risk to this unit." Aya said over the comms. I sighed knowing that she was right. Getting up I walked to the elevator and yelled out before the doors closed "You're in charge Aya"
Following their footsteps wasn't entirely hard to do, however, it was hard to stay away from the spiders. Moving silently in the corridors I glided towards one of the cells to avoid being spotted, coincedetily when I looked further in I noticed It was Razer's cell. I walked over to get a better look at him. He was strapped to an x-shaped platform standing upright. He had a cylinder tube around his head that was conducting electricity. His face looked like he was in pain, moving closer to him I went to take off the helmet when I noticed a green streak out of the corner of my eye.
"What the hell?"
" Do not be afraid, I am the Aya Program." the green streak called out.
"Aya what are you doing here? You should be on the ship guarding Goggan."
" I could not let you go alone. A green Lantern makes sacrifices for the greater good." She stated, "I believe I have a way that we can help Razer."
"How?"
"By sending you into his telepathic thoughts with that spare helmet."
Looking around confused, I spotted the helmet. I walked over and grabbed it.
"Now what?" I asked.
"Put the Helmet on and try to keep your mind open."
Following her instructions I waited for a couple of seconds before I felt immense pain, then darkness.
Opening my eyes I noticed I was lying down with green flamed candles around me. Sitting up and looking to my left I noticed Razer sulking with his back turned to me.
"Razer, listen to me. None of this is real. This is not happening. It's ok, you don't need to panic. It's me, Rory. Aya sent me into your telepathic thoughts to help you." He turned around and looked at me in shock for a few seconds until it looked like he finally accepted what he saw.
"I know this is a fantasy. An illusion meant to bring me pain."
"If you know then, why stay here? Why not fight back for control?" I asked standing up.
"The memories keep replaying, over and over, in my head. They hurt. But I don't mind. I get to see her again. Even if it's for one more moment."
"I'm sorry Razer." I said looking down "But, I need your help. I can't save Hal and Kilowog without you. There are too many spiders for me to fight off and my rings not working properly"
"The prison? What are you all even doing here?"
"We heard that prisoners are being tortured here. And Hal and I thought it was unacceptable. We came back here to investigate. And to save you, if that was true."
"You shouldn't have done that. I deserve to be here. I helped destroy an entire world. All those people died because of me."
"That's where you are wrong. Kilowog and I were able to rescue the settlers before the world was destroyed."
"What? Then, I didn't ...It doesn't matter. I'm still the one who pressed the button. In my heart, I'm guilty of murder. I'm going to stay here "
"Too bad we don't get what we want," I said as I walked over and touched his face to bring him out of his memories. Once we were free Aya released him took off my helmet and stood up from the floor.
"I will never forgive this." He said looking at me.
" I have seen your past, and sadly I know your pain."
"No one knows my pain! Certainly, not the likes of you." He spat out angrily and walked towards the door. I followed after him and took a left down the hallway once the door opened.
"Where, now?" Razer asked looking at me.
"Something makes me weaker and brings a feeling of being drained. I believe this is where they are keeping Hal and Kilowog." I replied
"And the other way?" He asked looking to the right.
"That is the path back to the ship." He fled down the right hallway toward the ship
"No! You cannot leave them to die!" I yelled out but he was too far gone. My yelling caught the attention of some spiders. They came towards me, I started to prepare myself to fight. One came at me and I went to kick it, only to receive pain throughout that leg. That same spider took the opportunity to knock me out.
I woke up again in Hal's arms, I moved to get back on my feet.
"Easy there princess. You took a pretty nasty hit to the head. How do you feel?"
" Like I just got knocked out. What Happened? I asked while looking around and saw all the spiders either dead or in severe condition.
"Razer Happened. He got his ring back and went to town on them once he saw that you were hurt. But he gave it back once they were taken care of" Hal handed me Razers ring.
I blushed deeply just at the thought of him protecting me.
" Come on, let's get back to the ship," I said as we began our walk to the interceptor.
"Myglom and his guards in the jail cells. Like you wanted!" Goggan informed as we crawled closer towards us.
"The Guardians have dispatched a new warden. He should arrive in 18 months. In the meantime, I'm designating a temporary warden. Congratulations, Goggan. I'm leaving the prison in your capable hands things. I trust you can free the prisoners from their cocoons?" I asked and was informed.
"Yes yes! Of course, I No one will ever be tortured here again!" Goggan stated as he saluted to us and started his next task.
"You know, for a second there, I thought you were gonna make Razer the warden," Kilowog stated as he looked at me while I walked towards the ship that sat on top of the loading dock inside the prison.
"Are you crazy? I couldn't possibly leave a Red Lantern in charge of this place." I joked only to turn around a look at Razer who had his head down "Because he's coming with us." I threw his ring towards him. Thankfully he had good reflexes. He looked back at my smirking face in surprise. Winking at him I walked onto the ramp with him following behind me. As soon Razer and I were on board the ship took off to look for more lanterns.
"You do not seem to have recovered from your ordeal," I said to Razer as we sat down at the in-floor dining table.
"You have seen my past. It is private." He stated as he crossed his arms.
"Trust me it wasn't my idea."
"You're a smart girl, but yet you risked your life for idiots. Why?" He questioned. I cast my head down to try and hide my smile but gave up and looked at him while smirking
"Because a Green Lantern would do no less."

Little does he know; another member of the justice league feels the same way. Inspired by the DC Animated Film, Justice League War version of these characters! Batlantern is one of my favorite ships, so it was one of my first ever fan fics I ever written, first one with fluff and smut and all the NSFW stuff. Hope you all enjoy!

Beware My Power, Green Lanterns Light Part 2
“Hal Jordan of Earth, soon to be former Green Lantern of sector 2814. You are now charged with treason, grand thef-” Apa accused Hal since the moment the Meeting Started.
“Let's postpone my lynching until I tell you a couple of things,” Hal said over Apa. The Latter definitely did not agree with that. But also did not object to it either.
“What have you found, Hal Jordan?” Ganthat asked
“You see these handsome devils? They're the Lantern killers you said didn't exist. Call themselves Red Lanterns. Ring any bells?”
“He has concocted this ruse to save himself from a deserved punishment.” Said Apa.
“Respectfully, sir. I got an aching jaw that says they ain't no ruse.” Kilowog agreed with Hal and me. 
“Their Power Rings fire some sort of red energy that-” I started, only to be questioned by Says “They have rings?! Powered by what?” She asked while moving closer to get a better look at Red Lanterns
“Best guess? A huge desire to mash us all into pulp.” I continued
“Kilowog of Bolovax Vik. What is your recommendation?” Ganthet asked as he looked at Kilowog.
“ I say we high tail it back to Oa, cram the interceptor with as many GLs as she'll hold ultra-warp back, and kick their red butts until they're black and blue!” Many seemed appalled by Kilowog’s choice of words. 
“Despite the colorful terminology, a logical course of action.” Says agreed.
Aya popped into the Main Console viewpoint to Announce “Sensors have picked up an unmanned probe sweeping the area. Markings match the insignia of the recently encountered hostiles.” She pulled up a picture of a red and black drone that looked like a bass clef.
“Right. Red Lanterns. Aya, plot intercept course. It's going time.” Hal Ordered.
“Hal Jordan of Earth, do not terminate this communication..!” Apa interjected Angerly
“Sorry, gotta take this, don't be a stranger.”
Moving the ship to follow the probe was hard. Dodging asteroids and moving in and out of tight spaces, we got closer to the probe before it swan-dived down. Trying to follow it we kept getting shot but were never able to return fire without hitting asteroids.
“Forget about snaring it, just blast it!” I yelled.
In doing so we received a hard blast, “Warning! Shield degrading.” Aya Warned.
“Hal, break off! Stick to the plan. We go for reinforcements, then come back!” Kilowog Yelled.
“We can't let this thing give away our position!”
“What position?! We're going home! The Red Lanterns caught you with your pants down back on that rock and you want payback!”
After a couple more shots being fired by us, it hit the engine hard. “Direct hit to port ampoules. Shield's degrading to critical. Please do not let that happen again.” Aya Spoke up over the sound of the gun firing. Flying above we were able to figure out its flight patterns. Following closely we saw that it was about to fly over a giant asteroid.
 “Get ready to fire when I clear that rock,” Hal yelled. He makes a drilling construct so that we can go through the asteroid. Once we were through we flew up a caught it.
“Pekaboo.” I teased
It tried to turn around only for me and Kilowog to fire two shots at it, destroying it.
“Happy?” Kilowog asked Hal very angrily. 
“That felt good! A probe like that means the Red Lanterns are more than two killers with rings and a symbol. They're organized.” 
“Yeah Looks like we can't hog all the fun. Let's hit HQ and load up the boys like we planned. Aya, take us home.” I advised.
“Arching ultra-warp drives. Ready in three two one Impel.”
As the engine glowed preparing for take-off, we shot forth and stopped immediately after. All of us smacking and hitting the consoles.
“ Are we there Yet?” Shyir Rev (The wounded Lantern) asked. Getting up and taking a look at every one. Some looked like they were about to toss their cookies.
“Aya, what happened?” I asked.
“Overload due to hairline crack in the ultra-warp coil. Most likely caused by the last missile hit by the enemy probe. “All of us looked at Hal after she said the last part. Raising his hands he “For the record, she said most likely Not totally likely.” he said defensively.
“What does that mean?” Shyir Rev asked. 
“It means we're gonna be a little late to Oa. That's okay, I like to make an entrance. Aya, please estimate the time for repairs.” I said.
“Calculating. - Ultra-warp ready in nine point two” Hal interrupted “Nine minutes, no problem!”
“Okay, Can we form a construct and replace the defective part for the ride home?” I Asked
“The construct would have to be an exact copy of the ultra-warp coil mechanism. And it's 56 moving parts to within a 0. 8162 microns tolerance” 
“An any of you do that?” I asked as I looked at everyone
“ I make Hammers,” said Kilowog
“ Look, maybe it's for the best The Guardians won't deal with the problem like we will. We'll make those Red Lanterns pay” Hal said as he walked over to the Steering Console. Shyir Rev Started to fall out of his chair, Kilowog noticed and quickly caught him.
“Is he okay?” I asked Kilowog concerned.
“Just a little lightheaded He's taken a beating. He needs a real doctor, he's not making nine hours, never mind nine months” 
“ I was kinda looking forward to seeing Oa” 
I looked down at the floor ashamed, because f completely forgot about his condition “Aya, scan for the nearest inhabited world. Preferably one with a hospital.” I ordered.
“ Don't bother I know my own sector anywhere. We're not far from my home colony.” Shyir Rev said as he looked out in space towards his planet's sun.
“Sounds like a good place to lay low for a while and get you fixed up,” I said. We platted Course for the planet and engaged hyper speed.
After Landing at Shyir’s home, a woman walks out with medical supplies and starts to help Shyir Rev.
“Ow.” He said
“Don't be such a baby. “ She teased as she continued to patch him up.
“Very handy to have a doctor for a wife,” I said.
“Medicine is something I picked up because of my husband's second job.” She said as she looked over at me.
“She's actually the colony's head geologist. I was an engineer, that was how we met. Beata's the genius who dreamed up using the volcano's lava as thermal power.” Shyir said proudly.
“So was that your secret identity, engineer?” He asked Shyir, walking over to us from the ship.
“Secret what?” He asked confused
“ That's Hal's hang-up, that thing on his face, it's a mask. He wears it in case some earthling sneaks into the interceptor, while in space mind you, and goes: Aha! The Green Lantern on my planet is Hal Jordan! I'm telling everyone!” Kilowog laughed out teasing Hal.
“ Haha Talk to me when your planet invents paparazzi and the 24-hour news cycle.”
I heard two a sound of small feet running and looked behind me, only to have to look under and watch as a little girl ran over to Shyir yelling “Daddy, Daddy!”
“Wait Who is this giant?1 What have you done with my daughter Amala?” He teased as he tickled her.
“I am Amala.” The little girl said as she giggled.
“Now, now Time for hugs later. Let daddy rest.” His wife said. She stretched out her hand to her daughter waiting for her to take it. Amala went running to her mother, grabbing her hand and turning around to look at her father.
“Bye, Daddy!”
“This is some place Kinda reminds me of where I grew up Bolovax Vik,” Kilowog said looking out at the village sadly
“I'm sorry. Even here we heard about its destruction.” Said Shyir, offering his condolences.
I remember when that happened. Kilowog was overly strict with the recruits, to the point I had to pull him aside and talk to him. Only to get tears and snot from him instead.
“Your planet was destroyed? I-I never knew.” Hal said
“Just concentrate on gettin' us out of this mess you made hotshot,” He said as he walked further away from us and the ship.
“ Attention! I have found a tracking device on the interceptor's hull and require assistance removing it.” Aya Rang out over the PA system.
Flying closer to the ship, I noticed a black dot with a smaller red dot inside it. Getting Next to the wing, I was able to detect it was a tracker. I tried slashing it with a green rope. But all it did was fall to the ground. Dropping down I land on the tracker with my foot smashing it to bits.
Hal walked over witnessing my finding of the tracker.
“Do you think they. . ?” He asked
“Pretty sure they do,” I confirmed. The ground started to rumble when a black cylinder started to land. Black legs were extracted from within to support its weight for the landing. Once it had settled and red Holographic screen displayed itself in the sky showing a red man with yellow eyes, and black lips. He looked like Two-Face but pure red.
“This colony now enjoys the protection of the Red Lantern Corps. You have been liberated from the tyranny of the Guardians. But their Green Lantern lackeys are here You have one solar hour to bring these war criminals to us or your planet will be vaporized” He said ending the Message.
“ Those murdering red-” Kilowog started but was interrupted by Shyir rev
“We have to turn ourselves over to them.” 
“Shyir, no!” 
“We don't have a choice!” he Tried to reason with his wife
“ These guys are murderers. They're gonna blow up this rock no matter what you do!” Kilowog pointed out while death stared the liberator down
“ We do have a choice. We can fight them. And keep fighting, until we can't fight anymore.” I suggested
 That thing is a fortress. A frontal attack would be suicide.” Kilowog fought back, getting closer to me.
“Hey, if you've got another way, I'm all ears, but we've got to take that thing out!” 
“The Earth-Woman is right, we must go! “Shyir said. We started flying over there but only got maybe 5 feet before we got called back by his wife.
“Shyir, wait! I have another way!”
“Boy, I hope she is right about this. I'm bakin' here!” Kilowog exclaimed while He, Shyir, and I flew in the volcano towards the Liberator.
“ She's always right. This way” he directed us right under the liberator. Flying further up I cut a hole large enough to fit all of us at the bottom of the planet killer. Once we flew in we headed up a path of stairs. After a couple of seconds, we got to a door, I knocked yelling out housekeeping.
Kilowog did not share my amusement and just kicked down the door.
“ That must be the control panel.” I pointed out, looking at a large cylinder with small red buttons on it. We walked closer to get a better look.
“ Do you think you can disarm it, Rev? Kilowog asked
“I'll need a few minutes-” He was interrupted when a red energy almost hit us. Looking over at the window, Razer was standing there with his arm still up.
“ Die, die, die! “ He exclaimed shooting more shots at us. I set up a green force field 
“Hurry up, Rev!” I yelled. I could feel the shield was already breaking.
“ This guy's not playing around!” said Kilowog, charging at Razer. He swags his hammer aimlessly at Razer to try and get him.
“ Keep him back, for just a couple of minutes. “ Shyir exclaimed as he continued working on the wires. I flew over towards Kilowog to help him only to get shot backwards a couple of feet.
“This is your fault! You Green Lanterns might enjoy destroying worlds. But I do not!” Razer yelled as he conjured a red whip and slashed at us. Dodging out of the way I dumped into Kilowog and sent him to the ground.
“ In case you haven't been keeping up on current events you guys put this thing here and pressed the button! You wanna help!? Stop fighting us!” I tried to reason with him, only for my words to fall on deaf ears.
“ I won't listen to your lies. I'll destroy you both! “ He charged towards me, earning a roundhouse to the face.
“And what, you gonna mass murder them by blowing up the planet!? You know what you're fighting against, Razer. But what are you fighting for?!” I pointed out while delivering a kick to his chest sending him out the window.
“Dumb kid, Where is Shyir? Let's have some good news! “Kilowog said, flying over towards Rev. Flowwing him I sat next to Rev to try to help him.
“Detonation in thirty seconds”
“We need to move away. “Kilowog exclaimed pulling me up to my feet. And towards the window.
Three Two One. Detonate. Detonate. A red laser shot down within the unit towards the explosive. Rev took action and created a barrier to stop the laser.
 “Time to go,” I yelled out looking at Rev.
“ I can keep the laser from igniting the plutonium, for a little while anyway. I know what happened to Bolovax Vik. If you had a chance to save your world What would you do?” He said looking at the kilowog. I looked down not only in despair but in condolence as to what was about to happen.
“It's been an honor. “Kilowog said as we flew over to the window. Heading towards the village we created a giant claw to scoop people up before it was too late. When it looked like we got everyone, we started our ascend into space and put as much distance as we could between us and the liberator. 5 minutes passed when it finally exploded, taking Shyir along with it. The entire planet glowed and cracked before it too joined Shyir. Everyone watched as the liberator took the only home they had ever known and a family member as well. I looked over a kilowog, whose face was hard as a rock.
“Let's go find Hal,” He said. Thankfully it didn't take us long to find him
“Are you gonna help us with this, hotshot?” Kilowog exclaimed
“Kilowog, Rory!”
 “We got most of the colonists up before the big bang, but our rings are running low.”
“I believe I can help,” said Aya over the PA on the Interceptor. Shooting a green beam towards our Bubble. Relieving us and our Rings of the weight. We looked over at Razer, only to find him in a bubble without a ring.
“What's he doing inside that bubble?” I asked curiously
“Never mind him. You are a sight for sore eyes. You too, Aya.”
 “Thank you.” She replied
 “What about Rev. Did he make it?” Hal asked, and I couldn't meet his eyes. Shyir's ring flew towards and past us on the way to Oa. We all looked down or away.
“ I hope everyone knows the sacrifice Shyir made,” Hal said as we stood on a nearby planet that was now the home of Shyir’s people.
“They do. The elders are going to name our new planet after him.” said his wife while holding Amala in her arms. She was trying to hold back tears. I walked over towards them and put my hand on her cheek lovingly.
“Your daddy was very brave, Amala. He saved us all. 
“Is it okay if I still miss him?” 
“Yeah. We all will.” I replied, Her mother and her went over to join the people in hopes of building their new home.
“You know, Shyir did save them all. He asked me what I'd do if I had another chance to save my planet. And that's when it hit me, I'd save the people.” Kilowog explained to Hal.
“At least one of us got it right.” He Replied
“The cooling system is now functional. Continuing repairs.” Aya Debriefed, as we sat together in the cock pit. 
 “So, what's next?” I asked looking between Hal and Kilowog.
 “Next, we find the Red Lanterns,” Hal answered
 “Just how are we gonna stop who knows how many super-powered Red Lanterns with just the three of us?” Kilowog asked while walking over to Hal.
“That's a really good question, Kilowog. Here's another one, what should we do with the one we captured?” I pointed out as we all looked at Razer in the holding cell.
