/*I am saying this again. Some of the stories written here aren't comically accurate and something I had made up and made it sound that it was in the comics. Though I haven't veered off from the comics by a lot but there are some discrepancies here and there. Nothing major to be honest. So don't take the words here as gospels. Read the comics. They are much better.*/
"You can't save everyone. We can only do what we do best. The results, the consequences are the things we don't think about much. Sometimes our actions save people, sometimes it doesn't. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't try. If we don't try to solve it then who will. Right?" The spirit said in a very bland tone. It seemed like she wasn't saying such big words but she was having a cold conversation with John.
But John knew that her way of talking had always been a little cold. That was her nature. John, hearing those, didn't reply. He knew whatever she said was right. They could only do so much and hope for the best.
There was no perfect solution for everything. One thing or the other will slip away and lead to another kind of problem.
He just sat there and continued looking at Earth. After half an hour, from the corner of his eye he saw a large spaceship approaching Earth, or it was better to say that the large spaceship was approaching the Ring.
The spaceship was a totally new model that the universe had ever seen. The spaceship was special because it was developed by the Guardians!! Yes, the Maltusians took out their technological knowledge and advancement to carry out this crucial long term mission.
And a good spaceship was just one of the ways for it. They also brought a special team for this, a team of Green Lanterns and among the ranks was Emma too. She was one of the first Green Lanterns of the native universe so she had quite a weight around the Lanterns so her inclusion in this mission was a natural one. Of course, John asked the Guardians too to take her.
The alien looking spaceship soon landed near the Hall of Justice. John flew to Hall and waited for them to arrive. This was the first time for the Guardians to ever go out of Oa. They had never done so since they had arrived in the universe.
The new universe did arouse curiosity of the Guardians but not strong enough to go out for a roam but the crisis has finally brought them out of their shells and take this matter seriously.
A team of 5 Green Lanterns stepped out from the hangar and among the Lanterns there was one from the Kree race too. This was a little shock for John but he didn't point it out. It was a shock because the Kree was from the pure bloodline and it was surprising that someone of that bloodline was not so haughty enough to take over the mantle of Green Lantern.
Emma was leading the team. She stepped quickly as she arrived at the Hall. After seeing John she didn't even waste a second to arrive at his arms and kissed him. She had been out for quite a long time and she missed home. She had always wanted to work on a mission with John. To help him.
Finally she had the chance and she was going to do everything to prove that she was worthy to stand with John. The other lanterns too had arrived slowly after her and allowed PDA to finish between their captain and the person who had once saved their universe with his powers.
John was pretty famous at Oa after Black Winter and many were thankful to him as he saved the universe, so he had a pretty good reputation. Of course some feared him too because of his power but all in all they had a good impression of him.
The Guardians too had come out of the spaceship and slowly floated to the Hall. Since they were powerful telekinetic and thus they were basically a toned down version of Professor X.
"Mr. Jameson, we have gathered all the equipment required to handle the crack. Though we have never faced this situation before, we believe we have enough expertise to handle it." one of the Guardian said.
"I believe so. But this mission is something which is dangerous and time consuming so I have gathered a small team of my own." John said as he opened a portal beside. He didn't even let the Guardians speak another word as the portal had opened.
After a few seconds, a few people emerged from the portal. The Green Lanterns who were behind the Guardians were dumbfounded seeing the people that had arrived. It was not because of the people that had come but among the people who had come had freaking dinosaur.
And if that was not enough, there was a small girl sitting on the neck of the red colored Tyrannosaurus . This whole combination of a small girl and a dinosaur was totally a weird one. The Lanterns gulped seeing all of this.
The girl was the smartest one from Earth TRN981. On the same level as Reed Richards. She was brought with the team of Reed, Banner and Tony. The greatest minds of their universe.
