The Sky is Yellow

Green Lantern:

Flying as fast as I can, my ring in front and glowing bright, I look behind me to see multiple yellow beams chasing me! Dodging a few as they fly past me, I raise my ring and quickly make a bubble to protect myself.

"Capture him," a yellow lantern screams, pointing at me. More and more beams concentrate on me, cracks start to form all over and I drop to my knee. "Superman wants him alive."

Mustering as much will as I possibly can, I climb back onto my feet and look at all the yellow lanterns flying into the sky. Somehow, a small army all followed me into Gotham City before I even saw the first one. Hitting me and knocking me into an abandoned building, I regather my bearing and fire back, only to hit a shield. Now, seeing how many there are, I had no other choice but to run.

"You can't run forever," a voice in my head says, sweat pouring down my face as I try to keep the bubble up. Focusing my will, I form cannons on the bubbles and fire. Despite missing, they still help by forcing some yellow lanterns back, giving me enough of an opening to break through my bubble and fly into the sky!

Charging toward the closest yellow lantern, I summon a giant baseball and smack him with it! Hearing a thud as the yellow lantern is sent flying away, I turn around in time to block a beam! Spreading out my arms, I create a giant hammer and use it to nail the yellow lantern into the street!

"Who's next," I scream, turning around with my ring in front of my face. Seeing over a dozen yellow lanterns aim their rings at me, I focus my will into a massive golf club and swing!

"Fore," I yell, my golf club fading away. Turning away now, I cross my arms in time to withstand a bunch of beams hitting me! Forcing me back only a little, I uncross my arms and rocket into the beams! Swinging my fists, a wave of pure will fire out from my ring and knock out the yellow lanterns!

Turning around again, yellow weights appear around my feet and pull me down. Falling fast to the ground, I aim my ring at the weight and fire! The weights breaking apart, I manage to land on my feet. Looking up, I aim my ring and try to summon something, but nothing appears.

"What," I say, looking at my ring and seeing it flash. "No! No! No! You can't be out of power! I charge you before leaving Oa! Come on! Come on! Not now! Not now!"

Seeing multiple beams hit near me, I didn't even have time to get out of the way before the beams all simultaneously explode and sent me flying away!

Falling back onto the street, landing on my arm, and hearing a few bones break, I scream into the yellow sky.

Firing their rings at me, a yellow bubble forms around me. Slamming both my fist and my ring into the bubble, all it did was make a few green waves along the inside, the waves staying for only a few seconds.

"Come on," one of the yellow lanterns says, "Superman will want to turn Green Lantern as soon as possible--"

Screaming mid-sentence, a pair of bright-red lasers hitting him, he loses his focus and is sent flying away. The bubble disappears, I concrete my will and try to fly but somehow, there isn't enough power. Looking at the street as it gets closer and closer, someone grabs me before I could hit it.

"What the hel--"

Someone flicking me on the side of the head, I rub my head and look up.

"Don't swear," some guy with a pair of sunglasses says, pointing a finger at me. The guy is wearing a jacket with a dozen pockets and long brown pants. It isn't until a few seconds later that I see what it is he is holding.

"Is that a rocket launcher," I yell, pointing at a long, dark-green, tube in one of the man's hands.

"Hal Jordan," the man says, looking up to see Supergirl, Firestorm, and Blue Beetle fight off some yellow lanterns.

"Hold! Is that Supergirl! What is she doing here!"

"Hal Jordan," the man says again, getting down on a knee and reaching into his jacket. Seeing a yellow lantern about to fire at Blue Beetle's behind, I'm about to yell but before I can, something happens and the yellow lantern is hit with some sort of white smoke! The white smoke fading away, the yellow lantern is now frozen solid, trapped in ice and falling to the street!

Looking around, I see Captain Cold standing on the other side of the street, firing his cold gun and freezing more yellow lanterns!

"Is that Captain Cold! Why is he here! And why is he fighting yellow lanterns!"

"Hal Jordan," the man screams, flicking me on the side of my head again.

"Ouch! What?"

"Hi, I'm. Pleasure, kind of, not really, to meet you."

"What? Who the hel--"

This time, slapping me in the head, he points a finger at me.

"Do not swear. Not at least you want me to turn this thing on you."

Pulling a small purple ball from the inside of his jacket, he drops it into the rocket launcher. Tossing the rocket launcher onto his shoulder, he then looks through the crosshairs on the side of it.

"Fire in the hole," he yells, firing and a trail of purple smoke shooting out. The trail ending when it hits a group of yellow lanterns, it bursts into a mass of purple goo that drops onto them.

"What is that," I ask, watching as the yellow lanterns that were hit fall to the streets.

"It's a very heavy goo that makes flying almost impossible. It also stinks really bad. That's not part of the formula but I had a bunch of stinky stuff I wanted to get rid of; rotten eggs, old cheese, wet dog hairs I still can't remember where I got it from."

Reaching in and pulling out another purple ball, he drops it into the launcher.

"Flash," the man screams, "There's an opening! Now! Now!"

Flash:

"Hold on Hal," I scream as I run out from cover and to Hal.

"Barry," Hal screams when he sees me. "What is going on? Who is that?"

"One really son of a," I say but stop, remember who is standing behind me. "Nevermind. Come on!"

Grabbing Hal, I run past into cover as fast as I can. Running around a corner, I drop Hal and take a quick peek.

The man in sunglasses is running, jumping a few seconds and rolling before stopping. Taking aim, he fires his launcher again and I watch as more yellow lanterns are covered in goo.

One yellow lantern summons a buzzsaw to throw at the man but Supergirl, seeing this, slams through the saw, shattering it into tiny pieces.

Supergirl:

"Hal wasn't kidding," 'The' says, dropping his launcher. "There is an entire army of yellow lanterns here! I count at least 60 yellow lanterns still in the sky! We're badly outnumbered!"

"What's the plan," I ask, seeing a bunch of yellow lanterns as they start circling us.

"Part 1 was getting Hal out of here," 'The' answers, "Part 2 is getting ourselves out of here! Get down!"

Pulling from his jacket a bunch of pellets, he tosses them all into the air, before grabbing me! The two of us dropping to our knees, the pellets all burst, a massive cloud of thick grey smoke erupts and blanket all of us!

Hearing screams and cries from above, I feel the man tap my shoulder.

"Time for a little wind power," he yells, "Don't you think?"

Nodding my head, I inhale as much as I can before exhaling, blowing not only the smoke away but also the blind yellow lanterns!

The sky returning to a pitch-black color, I turn to 'The'.

"Time to go," he says, nudging his head and running. Following him, he yells at Leonard, Blue Beetle, and Firestorm to follow. The three all nodding their heads, they follow after us, firing behind to keep the yellow lanterns back.

One yellow lantern forms an anvil to block Leonard's path, while another summons throwing axes to hit us with. While I destroy the anvil with one solid punch, 'The' pulls two swords from thin air and destroys the throwing axes!

Reaching the corner, 'The' pulls out his phone.

"Doc," he yells, "Activate the teleporter! Now! Do it now!"

A blue portal appearing in front, we all jump in, one after the other. Halfway through myself, I stop when I hear Blue Beetle screams. Turning around, I see both Blue Beetle and Firestorm with yellow wrap around them! Before I can do anything, they're pulled out of sight.

Truly, truly sorry about the two in a row misses everyone. I was trying to win this writing contest but didn't. I'm sorry again everyone, and I do hope you enjoy this chapter. Thank you
