Arc Reactor

After getting home from the wedding, The Justice League went back to working with the Thanagarians and I went home with Hila where we spent some alone time together for a brief moment.

Everyone had come home today except for Supergirl. She told me she 'had thinking to do' and Scream Queen asked if she could move in. She even offered to pay rent, which I of course declined before gifting her a personal room and welcoming her into my home. 

Scream Queen aware of my identity talked non stop about how we should sing together some time and how she used to be in an underground band. Giving the fact that she was a vampire, I couldn't help but wonder if it was literally underground, but I didn't ask. 

After setting up Scream Queens room, I received a call from one of my clones. "What is it?" I asked after picking up the call. 

"I have been asked to do a shampoo commercial, is it okay to do it?" asked the clone on the other side of the phone.

I thought for a moment before answering. "First how is the Iron Man movie coming along?"

"We have everything ready except the suit of armor, we are ready to start filming as soon as you give the go ahead. Also I talked to the other clone and he said he got the role in the movie 300. He tried to contact you, but you hadn't picked up." The clone seemed happy as he gave all the good news.

It was good to hear everything was going well. "Okay, it won't be long till I have the Iron Man armor ready. Go ahead and proceed with the Shampoo commercial. Make sure we are paid well." I didn't wait for a response from my clone and just hung up. 

I still had a little over a week and a half until I needed to steal from the Thanagairans. Using the Moonlight Computer I did a quick scan with it's satellite and detected that two ships had a larger amount of Nth metal aboard than the others, but only one of the two had a number of other items and technology on it. It was a no brainer on which one I would target. 

The amount of Nth metal this Thanagarian army had was not small, even their ship hull's were made of the special metal. The Thanagarian's were truly wastrels and if they used the precious Nth Metal this way, it was apparent they could afford to lose some. I felt no guilt in what I planned to take from the invading force. 

Since I still had some time to kill, I figured id get started on the suit of armors power source first. There was no such thing as an arc reactor in this world and so I needed to create a power source of my own. 

With the help of the holodeck, I was most likely one of this worlds top mechanical engineers and I had studied many other things up until now that would also be of help when creating different technology that I wanted to make. 

Walking into the vault I grabbed the green lantern ring from a parallel earth that had been sitting in the vault since I had taken it from the Justice Lords green lantern. It had no connection to the green lanterns of this universe and so I didn't have to worry about it running away on it's own. 

After grabbing the dull green ring that had long ago ran out of energy, I walked to the holodeck and asked the computer to create a room with everything I needed to study and create different mechanical items. Who needs a room of requirement when you had a holodeck that made solid working 'holograms' with the help of replicator technology of whatever you asked? 

Having an adequate room to work, It was time to find out how the technology of the ring worked. I was currently an Expert in mechanical engineering. It was one step lower than 'Perfect' on the systems grading scale. I doubted there was much in this universe that I couldn't reverse engineer. 

Looking at the ring with my excellent Saiyan eyes, I found myself regretting my previous thoughts. This ring was borderline magic. The technology was more advanced than I had thought, but I wouldn't give up. If I succeeded in understanding this ring, it's technology had many applications than just the Iron Man armors power source. 

Combing through what made the ring 'tick' I found pieces of technology that earth had no name for, but I recorded every thing I saw and tried my best at guessing it's function based on this Earths knowledge. I had many great mentors thanks to the holodeck which included Lex Luthor, William Magnus, Ted Kord, Lucius Fox, Doctor Sivana, Professor Ivo, Ray Palmer, and even toyman. 

With such great teachers, I saw no reason to give up even if the task was harder than I had thought. This was still doable. After taking record of every little piece of the ring, I constructed a 3D holographic model with the help of the holodeck. I had learned CAD in my pervious life and could have done this easily using a CAD program, but this was much easier and less time consuming. 

Having made a perfect 3D replica, I began to disassemble the actual ring piece by piece. I went back and forth to the moonlight computer to scan and measure each component to get a better understanding of each pieces purpose. The computer was extremely helpful and filled in my gaps of knowledge. 

This process went on for a full week with little rest. Finally after taking apart the ring and putting it back together a number of times along with a better understanding of what did what thanks to the Moonlight Computer, I was pretty certain I could create something similar. 

Without delay, I pulled up the actors wardrobe and began creating a lantern ring that resembled an arc reactor instead of a ring. Since this would be made of my systems metal I didn't worry about it's durability. After making the Lantern arc reactor, I created a Lantern made of the same systems metal to hold energy and then filled it with my Ki. 

Raising the reactor up to the lantern I said the oath I had programmed into it. 

Fighting evil by moonlight,

Saving Lives by daylight,

In the shadows you cannot hide,

Villains beware my power,

The Lunar Kings Light!

The reactor began to glow a bright white light as it began to absorb some of the Ki from the lantern. Considering Ki was basically 'life', I had just created a white lantern arc reactor before the white lanterns corp was ever a thing. The arc reactor I made was just a power source with the usual rings Artificial Intelligence though. It didn't have most of a lantern rings usual powers. I had stripped it of all it's other technology, but If I wanted to make a white lantern ring with all the bells and whistles in the future, I could.

Not only could, I likely would. It was a fast way to create an army that my Knights could lead into battle. Iron man and the future soldiers powers would be completely dependent on me refilling their lanterns from time to time so I didn't have to worry about them using the power in a way I didn't approve or betraying me.
