Flashblack part 2
Age 1
The world was a kaleidoscope of colors and sounds for Kai. He was just a baby, barely a year old, but already a world of memories and knowledge swirled within his mind. He was Anthony Smith, the otaku scientist, reborn as a Green Lantern.
One sunny afternoon, while his parents were busy in the garden, Kai, in his crib, was fixated on a strange sight. A green ring, glowing with an ethereal light, drifted through the air in his room. It seemed to be calling out to him, its emerald light pulsating with an energy that resonated with something deep within him.
He reached out with his tiny hand, instinctively drawn to the mesmerizing glow. As his fingers brushed against the ring, a jolt of energy coursed through him. His heart pounded, and a sense of purpose, of belonging, washed over him. He knew, in that moment, that this was the Green Lantern ring, the very same ring that had chosen him.
The ring, as if sensing his desire, began to shrink, conforming to the size of his small hand. It fit perfectly, snug against his skin, a comforting weight against his tiny fingers. As the ring settled, a wave of warmth and power surged through him. He could feel the ring's energy flowing through him, filling him with a sense of strength and confidence.
With the ring secured on his hand, Kai's perception of the world shifted. Colors became more vibrant, sounds more resonant. He felt a connection to something larger, a cosmic force that resonated with his very being. He was no longer just a baby; he was a Green Lantern, a warrior of light, a protector of the universe.
He looked at his parents, who were oblivious to the extraordinary event unfolding before them. He wanted to tell them, to share his excitement, but his words were trapped, unable to escape the confines of his underdeveloped vocal cords. He could only smile, a knowing smile that spoke volumes to his adult mind.
With the ring secured on his hand, Kai felt a surge of determination. He was a Green Lantern, and he would use his powers to make the universe a better place, one step at a time. He had a lot to learn, a lot to overcome, but he knew that he was not alone. The Green Lantern Corps was with him, and the ring was his guide.
He was ready to embrace his destiny.
