open Blackest Night

[Mr. Critical 434]

The universe is filled with many strange things. But we are not focusing on the whole cosmos, were focusing on a single planet and its introduction to the worlds beyond. Hopefully they're friendly. If not, then the world's going to get a few new guardians.

[Kulstor 254]

Rakon was relaxing.  He was a younger teenish sort of aged dragon (the size of an average mare, if one, one who was standing on her back legs).  Old enough to have his wings and to have skill at flying.   His mother was away, off world,l on some business.  He had finished his studies & exercises, she insisted he had to study & exercise and he found some of it enjoyable, some not.  Since he had finished he decided to relax for a while instead.  He went to the area they used as a hot tub, a lava pool, and went to the smaller one.  He lay in it and relaxed for a while, enjoying the heat.   He also wondered what he would do next.  Dig for some gems or ready something fun, or just go flying for a while.  Maybe watch some ponies from a distance.  Or maybe something else.

Zain flew through the air silently, scanning the area below as he did. He was high in the air, very high. High enough to need a constant supply of fresh oxygen from his ring at least. He hated staying on the planet of red lanterns, with atrocitus nonetheless. So he decided to explore and keep an eye on his old home for a while, at least until atrocitus realized one of his best was missing and dragged him back. So for now he enjoyed his freedom and watched the world move below him.

Aaron sat in his cave. Sleeping in his bag as he awaited for something interesting to happen. Maybe that dragon will return to take its cave back? Most likely not though. He made his argument very descriptive if he ever tried to return. Besides, this was the humans home now. Ever since he was "assigned" to this un registered sector. He knew they sent him here to not get in the way, but a Sinestro Corps with no killer-instinct is generally useless to them. But on the bright side... this sector wasn't lifeless. He kinda wished they didn't scream in terror at his presence.

[~Sole~ 852]

As zain flew through the sky his ring began to beep 'yellow power ring of fear detected two miles northwest' a robotic voice droned from the ring. After a brief pause zain sighed "lead me to it." He grunted simply, as he was led forward through the air by his power ring.

[Mr. Critical 434]

Aaron slowly arose from his slumber. Scratching himself to rid the uncomfortable sensation. He stretched and walked around his cave for a bit. "Ah, good morning cave. Good morning Equiis." Aaron walked to the cave entrance and took in a deep breath. "... Man I miss the rain."

[~Sole~ 852]

Zain soon arrived at a large mountain, and after a moment he realized that the lantern must be somewhere inside or underneath the mountain. But just as he prepared to build a construct to destroy the mountain he saw a cave entrance. And at entrance stood a boy... A human boy. After a moment he flew over to him "so, your the yellow lantern. Or should I say 'senestro corps.'?" He said simply

[Mr. Critical 434]

Aaron looked to the gryphon and he saw the difference immediately. "Oh, bollocks. Red lanterns." Aaron took a defensive stance in case the gryphon decided to attack. "What brings you here? I doubt that Atrocitous would send cannon fodder to an uncharted sector.So therefore, you must be a native as well."

[~Sole~ 852]

Zain's eyes literally flashed red with anger and annoyance as the human spoke "first off, I'm not your average mindless red lantern. And second, atrocitus can go fuck himself. I'm not here by any orders from him, I'm trying to hide from his stupid ass before he has one of his lackeys drag me back." He said, before landing in front of him. "And why are YOU here? Shouldn't you be hiding under some kids bed trying to make em wet themselves?" He asked

[Mr. Critical 434]

"oohoohoo. Scathing. That was about as hurtful as youtube comment. But no, I'm here because good ol' Sinestro sent me here. Disapointed that he got a soldier without a killers instinct. Yay. T_T" Aaron twirled his finger in a fake cheer. "So, seeing as you're conscious, I guess you have some self control. So, I ask that you please leave me alone. I was in the middle of some sweet solitude."

[~Sole~ 852]

Zain's glare soon turned into a smirk "so your a reject lantern eh? Ya flunked the fear test so that dastardly bastard sent you here. Ha!" He said mockingly, before sighing "well I wasn't lying, I'm trying to hide from atrocitus and his pets. So I know what it's like having a dumbass for a boss." He said with a sneer as he thought of the brutal lantern.

Rakon was floating in the lava pool when his ring in his belt pouch went off.  His mother had made him a duplicate ring when he showed interest in what he saw her do at home as a part of her practicing, and for emergencies.  

<Red & yellow energies detected.> it said.

"Probably bragging my ring is better then your ring.  or mine is shinier then yours." Rakon said, rolling his eyes. 

[~Sole~ 852]

Just as zain was about to continue his conversation with the yellow lantern he heard his ring beep. 'Green energies detected.' It said in a monotone voice. Zain quickly scanned the area but didn't see any green lanterns. "If you come out quietly I won't tear this mountain down ontop of you... Maybe." He called to the hidden lantern

[Mr. Critical 434]

"Woah! Don't tare down my home!" Aaron looked around the area, trying to find a green energy signature. Aaron was in no mood to mess with the green lantern corps. Let alone a Red lantern.

 

Deep in the reaches of space, close to the uncharted region of space. A lost ship of a mechanized soldiers slumbered. The lights flickered on, bringing the machines to life. Engines began to whirl to life. The soldiers remained in their slumber like state. The main computer shown its main program.

 

// primary program: obliterate emotion beings. - no exceptions.//

 

=========================

 

//Run program designation: 365-96874-998//

 

A machine soldier came to life. Its eyes glowing an unnatural red.

[Kulstor 254]

Rakon was resting in the lava pool, but sitting up, in case the other 2 lanterns did start to get into a fight or something.  He would not be a bit surprised.  His mother had told him that most of the colors could not get along and there were times when she thought some lanterns were worst then some of the so called villains she had to fight.

 

<Manhuner ship detected at <...> > the ring said giving a set of directions where the ship was. 

 

"Guess I should investigate.  Mom is still off world and likely out of the system." he said, getting out of the lava pool and reaching into one of his belt pouches to pull out his ring and put it on.  His green lantern uniform consisted of a his belt & pouches being green with the lantern symbol on the buckle, and an arm band on each upper arm.   He found the full costume itchy at times, not use to wearing clothes usually, apart from the belt and pouches.  That and his scales were tougher then cloth. 

 

He made sure his lantern was nearby, but enough out of phase with the universe, enough so only his ring could detect it, a trick his mother had taught him.  Once on his finger he flew off in the direction of where the ship was headed, hoping he would get there before they did to much damage.  "Guess I'll have to do this alone, with the other 2 likely to busy fighting or comparing ring or hat sizes to see who has the larger ring or head."

[~Sole~ 852]

Zain was about to argue with the sinestro lantern reject, but stopped as he saw the green lantern finally show himself. "A dragon eh? Pretty weird for a dragon to be a green lantern, I'd expect an orange lantern." He said, as the dragon flew past them and into space. "Hey, where the fu-" he paused as his ring beeped 'manhunter ship detected' it said; zain grit his teeth. "So... Some survived eh? Sounds like I've got a mission now." He said to himself, before following in the direction of the green lantern

[Mr. Critical 434]

Aaron looked to the sky as his ring set off a silent warning. It was telling him of danger. In the form of manhunters. He looked to the red and green lantern. He had no business with them, so he just left them be. Aaron began to think of why these obsolete machines are here. Even after their numbers have been wiped out.

[Kulstor 254]

Rakon looked ahead, looking for the ship.  He made sure he had a protective field around himself and that was using both his wings and ring to fly.  This increased his maneuverability, also gave him the flexibility to focus more of his ring energy on fighting or defense, instead of having to be sure to keep some reserved to keep him in the air.  

 

He wondered why they were here and what they were really up to as well as how many there were.  To bad his mother was busy out of the system or she'd be here to help handle them.  He thought he could only do his best.  He wasn't sure if those other 2 lanterns would take notice or if they would prefer to fight among themselves.  He guessed he'd find out sooner or later.

[~Sole~ 852]

(Sorry, didn't even notice the post for the longest time. I post now...)

 

Zain followed behind the green lantern and quickly caught up to him "yo, green boy. Are you headed for the manhunters too? Don't worry, when they tear you to pieces I'll finish the job." He said with a snicker

[Mr. Critical 434]

The machine sensed the emotional energies. Deploying a few soldiers to intercept the lanterns. The manhunters grabbed their batons and ejected from the ship. The small squad flew through space and met up with the lanterns.
"Attention, emotional life forms. Stand down and prepare for destruction."
The batons began to glow with energy. Preparing to engage the lanterns.

@@Mr. Critical, @,

 

Rakon paused in his flight, making sure he had his force field up.  He choose to mainly ignore the lantern's bad opinion of him since he didn't see the point of fighting with words.  "Hmm." he said to the manhunter, "Nah." He said as he put his ring up to the side of his jaw in a trick his mother had taught him.   "Let's see what this does."

 

Using his ring to enhance his natural fire, and give him greater control he then breathed fire at the manhunter, enhancing the degree of heat of his fire and focusing on breathing on as many manhunters as he could that were the closest.   He had not fought these before so trying a few things he may find out the best way of dealing with them, unless pure brute force was best.  Best to save energy if possible, his mother had said.  No need to waste it.

Zain scoffed as the manhunters appeared and told him to stand down "as if I'll let some outdated tin cans tell me what to do!" He said angrily, before creating a giant saw blade and slicing diagonally at a few of the manhunters in an attempt to cut them in half. (-1)(19)

[Mr. Critical 434]

Aaron had joined the fray, firing simple beams from his ring. They weren't very powerful, but they were enough to bring down the shock troops of manhunters. He fired a few blasts at the automatons, bringing two down. The other lanterns seemed to be doing the same.

The ship's on board computer recognized this and sent more, there was a large army on board, so sparing a few for these feeling organics would be nothing but a slap on the wrist. The ship sent out another squadron to join with the Manhunters that were left functioning.

[Kulstor 254]

@@Mr. Critical, @,

 

Rakon tried to make a shield, but at an angle so it would deflect the beams and take out some of the other manhunters, hoping they would take out some of their own forces, as he used his normal dragon fire on some of the closest ones.   He was wondering how many of them there were and when they would stop coming.  Also if perhaps taking out the entire ship may be better, though if it were to fall ti would cause tremendous damage to the land and the entire area around it. 

[~Sole~ 852]

Zain growled as more manhunters came out of the large ship and joined the other forces to attack them, with another swing he sliced at them once again with his giant sawblade which was now spinning quickly. "Die you stupid pieces of crap! I'll burn you all!" He cursed at them angrily
