Days go by as Atlas prepares for the coming storm

It was the same as usual

Until something happened

Jaune and Jessica's rings beeped to alert them of something incoming

The two don their uniforms and arrived at Atlas Center as the unidentified flying object makes land fall there

It was a green ship but it de-materialize

As two of it's occupants approached the pair, the two were on guard regardless

It was a big green lantern accompanied by a Guardian

Jessica: a Guardian? But why would they waste time going to a newly discovered Sector?

Jaune: judging by his appearance that's Ganthet the unorthodox amongst the Guardians and the ones who tend to bend the rules.

Ganthet: guilty as charged. As introductions goes this is Lantern Kilowog.

Kilowog: hey there poozers.

Ganthet: and you must be Jessica Cruz of Earth.

Jessica: um hi.

Ganthet: and you are Jaune Arc of Remnant.

Jaune: yes.

Ganthet: as far as anything is concerned only one Green Lantern is assigned to a Sector but that's not what I'm here for.

Jaune: then why are you here? You didn't come to the edge of the known galaxy just for idle chat.

Ganthet: that Ring you possess is not supposed to be given for it's a museum piece.

But it chose you.

Jaune: so what? I'm an unofficial Green Lantern.

Ganthet: in a manner of speaking yes. If Appo was here he would demand obstinately for you to surrender that ring.

But I came here to make you an offer.

Jaune: if it pulls me away from......

He looked at Jessica with a side eye so she wouldn't notice

Jaune: here no deal.

Ganthet: it's not permanent. But you must also experience time off world. And you might even enjoy a change of pace.

I just need you for a few missions and you can come home.

Kilowog: you should take it kid. The Guardians aren't known for making offers.

Jaune: I don't know if I've been watching far too much spy thrillers. But I have a feeling that you need a Green Lantern for something Off Record.

Ganthet remained silent

Until the silence is Broken by him laughing

Kilowog never seen a Guardian exhibit this level of emotion

Ganthet: why is it that us immortals can't be as creative as you humble mortals.

You have such amazing imaginations and at times Correct at the same time.

Yes I have some investigations pertaining to the safety of the galaxy and I need someone not part of the system.

Jaune: let me guess Red Tape?

Kilowog crosses his arms and shakes his head

Kilowog: like I always say if you want nothing done, Form a Committee.

Jaune: I guess even immortals get mired by politics.

Ganthet: sadly Yes.

Jaune: are these assignments pose a threat to every Sector at large?
