9 Ch.9 White Lantern

She stared at him for the longest while. Selina was so excited and happy that she hugged them together. Lance and Sally entered the room to see them in Selina's embrace. "I'm so happy that you finally told her!" "Who told her what?" "Brent finally told Thorn he likes her!" "Wait. What?!" Sally looked at them with hatred but Lance stared at Thorn and looked betrayed. Thorn saw him and felt a twinge of anger, sadness, and embarrassment. "Why should he care? Lance is the one that kissed Sally in front of me," she reminded herself and gently pushed away from Brent. "I'm going to lay down. Ask Mr.Wane to come get me if he finds what I'm looking for." "Thorn! Wait!" Thorn left the room and Lance followed. He grabbed her wrist and she quickly slapped his face. "Don't touch me again." Her eyes swirled with black once more and Lance took a step back. "Love, please listen to me." "I believe I told you never to call me that again." "It wasn't my fault. She told me you were there and I wanted to see you, but then she took me to that room and kissed me." Thorn's eyes blazed with darkness making it look like black smoke coming from them. "I can see your death Lance. And if you keep lieing and treating me like I'm stupid you'll see it quicker than you think." She turned away from him leaving Lance shaken and walked face first into Lucian's chest. "Ow!" Thorn looked up into his baby blue eyes and every trace of darkness left her. "We really need to stop meeting like this." Her face turned bright red and unknowingly her nose dripped black blood onto the floor. "Oh god! Are you okay?!" "Huh? Oh! Um.. Y-yeah. I'm fine. Just a little nose bleed. No worries." She quickly grabbed her nose and ran to the nearest bathroom. Brent walked out and greeted Lucian. "Have you seen Thorn?" "She ran to the bathroom with a bloodied nose just now." "What?! What happened?" "She wasn't paying attention and ran face first into me. Is something wrong?" Brent's face turned bright red and he turned away from his friend. " No. Nothing's wrong. I mean other than Nekron being on Earth." "Nekron is here?! Is Thorn ok?" Suddenly there was a large explosion and Thorn was thrown threw the wall barely missing the two boys. "What the fuck?!" They looked towards the gaping hole in the wall that Thorn came from and saw a young man in a white lantern outfit coming towards them. Thorn staggered to her feet with black blood dripping from various parts of her body. "So Mr.Wayne found one of you." "Bruce Wayne has done a good job at capturing you and reporting you to us black lantern." "You're wrong. I asked him to find you." The white lantern stood infront of her, his ice blue eyes burrowing into her own amber eyes. "Why would a black lantern want to find one of us?" "I need your help." "What would a death lantern need help with?" Thorn covered her mouth and coughed black blood before answering. "I need help to get rid of my father, Nekron." The white lantern boy heard the name and started shaking. "N-Nekron is here?!" "I already tried fighting him by myself but I need help. Please help me save my home." He looked at her stunned. "Do you not live with Nekron?" "No. I've lived here on Earth with Bruce Wane and his family for most of my life." The white lantern boy thought for a second. "Alright. I will help you for now. But if you show any signs of being like your father I will not hesitate to kill you." Thorn smiled weakly and the white lantern felt an odd sensation in his heart. "What should I call you?" He stared at her and answered, "Mitchell. You are called Thorn correct?" Suddenly she fell to the floor and Lucian picked her up. "I'll take her to her room." Brent nodded to him and watched Lucian walk away. "You threw her threw a wall?" He looked over at Mitchell. "Of course. All black lanterns must be taken out." "Out of all the stupid. Mitch we grew up with her. When we were little you played doctor with her." "That's Quinn?" Lucian came back to the room and looked worried. "How's she looking?" "She'll be fine. The wounds are already closing and she needs sleep." He glared at Mitchell. "What the hell were you thinking attacking her like that? She was still healing from her fight with Nekron." "How was I supposed to know that she wasn't a threat? She's a black lantern! I was brought up to kill them." Lucian's eye started to glow red until he felt a soft hand on his arm. "Is everything ok in here?" Thorn stood next to him like nothing had happened. "Thorn. You should be resting." "I'm fine." She moved around and stretched to show she was ok. The boys watched her and laughed to themselves. "She's so cute," they thought in unison. "Now to do something about the broken walls." Thorn stood infront of the wall that she busted threw and held up her black lantern ringed hand. Her eyes turn charcoal black as the wall pieced itself back together and Mitchell watched in amazement. "How?" "She's just amazing isn't she?" Brent said with adoration in his eyes. "Yes she is," Lucian answered with a smile. Mitchell looked at both of them and said, "you both like her don't you?" Their faces turned bright red and neither answered. She finished putting the wall back together and sighed. "I don't know about you guys but I'm starving." Thorn walked back into the dining room and grabbed the whole platter of bacon while Sally glared at her. She took the bacon to her room and the guys followed. "Shut the door." Thorn sat the tray down on her desk that was scattered with pieces of fabric and sketches of clothes. "What's this?" Mitchell picked one up and saw a design for a dress. it came up past the knee at an angle and was green with pink and white flowers that were surrounded by a different shade of green in the shape of leafs.
