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.

The Dormitory of St. Elias School for Girls

Cindy hadn't patrolled Gateway today. She'd been hiding in her room, stuffing her face.

She'd danced this dance before, but this time, there was no one to tell her what the point was. No way to focus. So better to just stay in and eat.

And eat.

And eat.

Earth. How terribly primitive. To think that anything capable of threatening anyone could have come from this pitiful excuse for a planet.

And yet it had produced more Lanterns than any other, and presented a wider variety of powered beings than any other.

Deslaak's role was not to question, but to obey. He made his way to the source of the shard of Orange power.

The cry goes up throughout the dorm as the big-headed green lantern approaches. Cindy looks out the window, climbs out, and lets the Orange lower her to the ground.

""So what the hell's going on this time?" she asks, arms still full of junk food.

He didn't show surprise, because, of course, he was never surprised, but little facial ticks revealed his displeasure at being denied the upper hand here.

"This time, human?"

"I've been watching the news for signs of zombies. Nothing's come up. Plus, there's no ring on my finger. So what's going on and why are my hands covered in Cheeto dust again?"

Deslaak frowned.

"The Guardians have ordered me to collect you. The universe itself is imperiled."

A Boom Tube split the air, depositing Avia onto the scene.

"Ah, for the love of Lightray... I'm too late..."

Deslaak put a green wall between Avia and Cindy. "This is no business of yours, New God."

He turned his attention back to Cindy. "You must come with me. Now."

"Cindy," Avia said quickly, "don't listen to Captain Groove-Harsher here. Big bad cosmic whammos comin' down and you're all caught up in it. And we gotta keep you safe."

"The Hall, for right now. We've got..." Avia switches tracks, not wishing to spill Ganthet's involvement, "We've got ways to keep you safe."

She reached up to tap her Mother Box, working to get a Boom Tube going.

"You," Deslaak told Cindy, "are coming with me. The Guardians demand it."

...So yeah, tossing a flurry of junk food wrappers in the air and then running to hide behind Avia isn't very heroic looking. But whatever works.

"Hate to harsh your groove, m'alien, but that ain't gonna happen," Avia said.

Two minutes until a Boom Tube could open up. Damn. Easy in, harder out. The Lantern had to be blocking her.

Deslaak struck out with a construct. Nothing fancy, just a lot of arms and chains, whipped around to bind Avia, tossing her a few feet away.

"You are coming with me."

"Please stop," Cindy says, but she doesn't have a lot of faith in it. He's a Green Lantern. She's going to have to break out the Judith Post to have even a hope.

Oh, please. Trying to tie her up and hold her? Did this guy seriously not know who she was?

Avia would be free in moments.

Deslaak's concentration wavered for a second, but only that.

"You're coming with me," he said again, starting to form a bubble around Cindy.

Cindy flailed a little in turn. Once she got her hands pressed more calmly against the sphere and let the hunger get going, it started to fade, but that took a moments figuring out what the hell was going on, and she dind't have a lot of time here.

Avia was free, and struck at the Lantern from behind... only to be rebuffed by the ring's automatic protection features. She landed hard on her backside.

"Demons of Darkseid..."

Deslaak grimaced slightly as his bubble began to fade, but continued to apply his willpower.

"A human corrupted by the Orange Light... the Guardians were certainly right to want to remove you from this world."
