Of course Black Hand would attack Coast City with his latest scheme for world-devastation when Dad and Carol were both out of the galaxy. Thankfully, he did have some backup -- his new Blue Lantern partner was pretty much the only thing keeping Henry alive right now.

Henry hopes that the Guardians can do something to help his arm. Black Hand managed to touch him, and his left arm feels like it's shriveling away, held in check only by his green charge. But it's not time to worry about saving his arm right now. He needs to take Black Hand down, and fast, before he kills any more people.

"Hey, Hand?" Henry snarls. Ava's been keeping him on the ropes for a bit while Henry catches his breath. Black Hand looks up at the Green Lantern. Henry's mind races to think up a pithy line he can deliver.

"Fuck off."

Oh, well. He'll be more pithy next time. He unleashes the full power of his green ring at Black Hand, knocking the zombie flat on his back. "Wrap him up, Ava," he tells his partner. "We need to get him to the Sciencells."

Henry wavers a moment... then collapses, the ring fighting to keep the infection from spreading up his arm. But something must be done, and quickly...

It was still hard to process what had happened. The world was saved! Only no one seemed aware of it. She had been trying so hard to claim she was not a hero. But she had noted absently while gathering things together to go track down some jewels that had gotten stolen that her life was starting to look more and more like a hero's life.

She didn't like that too much. It left her angry because it didn't sit well with how she ran things. She used guns and wasn't about to give them up. She thought for sure that set her apart from the hero crowd. But she was beginning to see that she wasn't exactly the type to avoid doing the right thing. That's why she got along with the Arrows she had met.

Gotham was different though. Searching the whole city for some missing diamonds that had been rumored to be around here filled her days. A whole week of working in the city and she found out something she hadn't known.

Her old man had a building here. So that night had her on the roof as she ate from a pizza box and read things both on her case and the building that was hers to do what she wanted with.

Only there was trouble brewing and she didn't know it until she heard the cock of a gun and was diving for cover intuitively.

"Damn my luck," Jane mutters all the while wishing she knew where her 'partner' was right now. There were people after her now. Just her luck, huh? So she draws her side arm and waits for a breath then takes a shot Damn she missed but with how quite Gotham was tonight someone might have heard that.
