Call to Arms
The headquarters of the YJLA

For a moment, all was quiet and dark in the headquarters of the YJLA. Sophisticated monitoring equipment kept track of emergencies around the world and in near-space, all quietly humming away into the night.

The quiet was suddenly broken by a crackle of green light, briefly illuminating the entire meeting room in its verdant glow. The glow subsided after a moment, coalescing into a single figure out a little blue man, the symbol of the Blue Lanterns glowing upon his chest. His expression was far from unreadable; in fact, he looked rather worried, as though the weight of the universe was bearing down upon him.

There was little he liked about this. He would have preferred to bring his Blue Lanterns into this, but without a Green to work with, their powers were limited. And they could not work with the Green Lanterns on this. Not until he had had time to persuade them that this course of action was the correct one. They would act hastily. And though they would not admit it, they would be acting from emotion. Things rarely went well when his brothers acted upon their little understood emotions.

Instead, he reached out with the Green power that was still his birthright and rather unceremoniously brought each member of the Young Justice League to their headquarters.

	Maria had been working when she was grabbed. However she was definitely not dressed in her Huntress costume. She was dressed in her Candy Starr costume. Which was not more than a green thong and a green mask. "Um, hi." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, I see somebody took advice to remember to floss seriously..." Petra arrives, suited appropriately like her father. Then she spots the Guardian. "Oh... well this can't be good." Daddy always said that when you got summoned by a smurf, shit was about to go down. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Corinna blinks because she had been elsewhere. This isn't right. Also hello Maria. "Are we changing our uniforms? I prefer pants..... And no. It can't," Corinna agrees. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A moment later, that super speed kicks back in, and Maria has a certain red cap draped over her. Its not ideal, the thong is still on show, but its... a little better. Chivalrous as always, even in the face of cosmic summonings. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Nothing wrong with flaunting your ASS-sets," Huntress smirked. She smooched Jon on the cheek and then patted it. He was adorable. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Michael comes flying in. he was a bit away from anything that would allow him transport, so he was a tad bit late... Only to catch an eyeful of green thonged ass as he turned the corner. "I always thought you took casual Mondays too literally, Huntress. Now, what's up-" Oh. Great. Guardian (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Excuse you!" Alina snaps, glaring at the short blue alien who had apparently summoned everyone. "Did someone forget to pack his manners for his tour of Earth?"

Normally she wouldn't react this strongly, but there's something about Lantern powers put her magic and her teeth on edge. Getting hauled halfway across the country unexpectedly by whatever it was this guy had done had given her one hell of a headache. She yanks her cell phone out of her pocket and fires a quick text to her mother so that her parents don't panic over her sudden disappearance.

	Ganthet did not look in the least bit apologetic or cowed by Alina. "Good," he said, when he saw that the League was more or less assembled. "I come with dire news. The fate of humanity, of this world, of the entire cosmos, is threatened." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So... typical Thursday then?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2011-10-27 09:06 pm UTC (link)
	"Typically, when a Guardian comes to visit, its a bit more than weekly business." Pause. "No more than once every couple months." He sighs. "Alright, Ganthet... what's the news, and how can we help?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I thought that was Wednesdays," Corinna joked. "But.... If everyone is in danger? What can we do to save them?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-10-27 11:24 pm UTC (link)
	Michael won't add to this. As annoyed as he is that this was just a random drop in, he hadn't heard much from the Guardian types since the last big "event" that happened under their watch. "What screwed up this time?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2011-10-27 11:57 pm UTC (link)
	"Please tell me we're not getting deputized. I've already got two jobs here on Earth, without getting a whole new palette swap." Petra groans. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alina just rolls her eyes and folds her arms across her chest. She's listening, for whenever the stubby blue jerk spits out whatever he came here to say instead of swanning dramatic about it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"This is more serious than you realize, Petra Gardner," Ganthet begins.

As he begins to speak, he brings up a hand, occasionally illustrating an important point in his story with green images.

"During the second Blackest Night, as you know, the Entities of the Emotional Spectrum were captured and imprisoned. The Butcher. Ophidian. Paralax. Ion. Adara. Proselyte. And the Predator. Though they were freed, through the efforts of Lanterns, both selected and deputized, they did not make it through those events unscathed.

"A small portion of each Entity was separated from it, cast adrift into the cosmos. Those fragments have been drawn here, to Earth. As the likes of Kyle Rayner and Hal Jordan did once play host to the Entities themselves, so too shall the souls of Earthmen draw in these fragments.

"It will transform them into something new... something beyond human. The next step in the evolution of the human race. They will have the potential to bring greatness upon this world.

"But they may not get a chance to. My own communion with Adara brought this to my attention, but my Brothers are just as watchful of Ion. Worse, Hank Henshaw, the Grandmaster of the Manhunters, has also learned of this. Brother Warth of my Corps reported their movements to me.

"We have little time. The Manhunters will wish to kill them. And my Brothers will wish to claim them for their own. Neither of these things must come to pass."

He projected a map, seven points illuminated. "I have found the paths they will take. You must find them and protect them."

	Avia studied the map for a moment. "Big job. Guess it's up to us." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Then let's be ready," she starts to look at the map then blinks. "They seem to be focused on the United States. That may make this easier for us to track them. How interesting." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2011-10-29 12:15 am UTC (link)
	"I will take that one," Huntress said and pointed to one of the seven points. "Just as soon as I change." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good idea. I'm sure the giant killer robots won't be phased by the nudity." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2011-10-29 04:50 am UTC (link)
	"Alright, I'll head after that one." Jon replies, pointing to another point. "I'm set to go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2011-10-29 03:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Dibs on the one furthest north. I don't do heat if I can avoid it." Petra speaks uo, still giving the smurf the eye. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	collateralmagic 2011-10-29 04:39 pm UTC (link)
	"I don't think anyone should go alone," Alina says. "You can bet that the Lanterns and the Manhunters aren't going to be. In fact, we should probably try and gather all of these people together in one place so that we can all protect them at once." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2011-10-29 04:52 pm UTC (link)
	"Not a bad idea. Want to join me after that one?" Jon points. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Can I get a lift?" Huntress asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
