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.

"Don't have a choice, Conan."

The flame on Michaels head flares up, becoming bright as he begins to draw on the Matrix. This will be hard. This will suck.

But Michael will not accept defeat.

A green glow surrounded Dex. "Yes you do," Dex said. "Last chance to avoid a hurting."

Okay, it's official. This is a fight. And he still doesn't know why it's over him.

"Stay down, kid," Michale calls to whoever the hell the person he's supposed to protect is as he flies straight at Dex. He needed to find a way to break the GLs concentration for a decent amount of time before he even has a chance to win. So he starts with a two sided blast: one creating silicon granite rushing at him from below. This is the distraction, as Michael is blasting above Dex a layer of super-chilled nitrogen.

Dex almost laughed at Michael's attempt. He created a large battering ram that smashed into the granite. Above him he created a giant fan that dispelled the nitrogen.

Once the immediate threats to his person were gone, Dex created a set of chains and wrapped them around Michael.

"Your move Flamehead."

As the fight breaks out in the sky above him, Harry feels conflicted. The part of him that hates fighting wants to find a way to make them stop, or at the very least explain why they're fighting because right now he's really confused. The other, larger, part of him is too worried they're going to end up decimating the area to try.

Survival instinct wins out this time. The fight is getting too close so he takes the pause as an opportunity to run and find new cover. Hopefully they pay no attention to him...

Yes, open your big mouth, Conan. Michael focuses his attention on the air in front of the Green Lanterns face. Michael knew that if this worked it would be a miracle, but even if it didn't it would hopefully break Dexs concentration enough for Michael to get out of the construct and blast him.

For the plan now, however, Michael concentrates on the area centimeters in front of Dexs face. Within a second, the many molecules and atoms are forced away, leaving a very empty space. One that, if Michael were lucky, the air in Dexs lungs would be forced out to fill. If not, it would still be a massive pressure decompression right in front of the guys face.

Dex felt the depressurization and forced himself to hold his breath just a few seconds while he flew away from the area. Dex formed a huge green fist and hit Michael as hard as he could in the face.

Okay...giant green fists now? He hopes neither of them gets too hurt but right now he's too busy running away. Cowardly? Maybe but it's not like he can fight them, and he certainly isn't the type to try.

So far they haven't noticed his mad dash to try and get out of the area. Harry hopes it stays that way.

Okay, new plan. Don't want to get hit in the face with a glowing green fist. How to fix that?

Michael reacts, trying to put a barrier in between his face and the fist, using the chains of the construct as the anchor to build it on. The barrier?

Made of pure osmium.

Dex didn't care about the fist construct not connecting. It distracted Michael enough that he didn't see the fist coming at him from behind.

Harry decides it's time to start trying to teleport. Great...how did he do it before? Harry starts tapping his shoulders where the markings are. Nothing. And he looks stupid doing this. Okay...maybe if he closed his eyes and thought hard about it? Still nothing. Great.

He ducks behind a nearby trash can to stop and figure out how to teleport. He's far enough from the fight that he's not worried about the green fists hitting him but he knows running is useless at this point.

Michael doesn't see the green fist coming. And it hits him square int he back of the head. As much as he didn't want to admit it, but it hurt. A lot. If not for the Matrix, that would have knocked Michael out. Instead, his head is ringing and he's thinking in desperation.

In an instant, the flame on Michaels head flares again and the immediately gets filled with halothane.

A *lot* of it.

Time to get creative. Dex formed a construct bubble around Michael entrapping him with his own gas. Then he tossed it up and formed a giant baseball bat to hit it a few states over.

Thankfully it didn't take long and the gas was just starting to affect him. He shook his head and went after the guy he was supposed to grab.

Harry is crouched behind a garbage can with his eyes scrunched shut trying to force himself to teleport again. His knees are shaking a bit and knuckles are turning white from gripping his knees so hard.

Why won't it work?

Not much Michael could do, he was already holding his breath and was turning the halothane back into the normal combination of oxygen and nitrogen when he's knocked through the air, flying quite a distance before the construct dissipated.

And he was several minutes away. Ample time for Conan to get the kid. Still, Michael has to try. He tears off back in the direction he came from, flying as fast as the Matrix would allow within an atmosphere.

Dex saw the kid and formed a giant hand to pick him up by the scruff of his neck.

Harry opens his eyes just to see a giant hand descend on him, he doesn't have time to move out of the way but he tries to dive away from it anyway.

The hand reaches down and just as it touches him the blue-purple aura appears around him and sucks the green construct in. Harry feels something creeping down his shoulders but is looking in shock at the Green Lantern trying to convey with his eyes that no he really didn't mean to do that and he didn't know how he managed it.

Harry has a feeling this is about to turn bad.

To hell with this. Dex formed another hand and scooped the guy up by scooping up the ground he was standing on. The construct wasn't touching the man.

Oh no, he's being lifted off the ground and by the time he realizes what's happening it's too late to jump. If only he could fly...well he's definetely not going to try and see if he can, far too dangerous. He's not even sure to the extent this new weirdness that's prevented him from getting hurt so far will work. Best to play it safe.

"Umm...who? I don't know any Guardians and I don't want trouble. At least give me a quick explaination please?"

Harry slowly backs away to the edge of the chunk of earth the guy has lifted off the ground. He doesn't want to go with this scary looking guy to some 'Guardians' but...the fall is looking more appealing. It didn't hurt at all last week when he hit a pot hole on his bike and ended up hitting a parked car face first. But this was a different matter entirely. Oh teleporting powers please kick in.

"They run the Green Lantern Corps and maybe some of the others or something." Dex really didn't pay much attention to the history learning part of his training. "They protect the universe and whatnot. They want to talk to you about your new powers. Or something." He shrugged.

"Green Lantern Corps? Like your bosses? Well if they protect the universe I'm no use to them." He's about to deny having powers on reflex but realizes that's not true anymore. "And I didn't mean to get powers. You can have them back if you want." If it means he won't get chased around by superheroes anymore he's fine with it. He's not much of a heroic type. Aren't people with powers supposed to be heroic?
