Royal Bank of Scotland – Edinburgh:
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Behind their masks the four assailants were confident, to the point where arrogance had begun to rear its ugly head. Their guns, which allowed them to kill two security guards with but a squeeze of a finger, had made them feel like they were gods.
One of the robbers was standing watch at the entrance, whilst a second and third where threatening the tillers into handing over large amounts of cash. The fourth guy, well he was different, calm and collected he seemed to delight in pointing his gun at random hostages, his own sense of delight heightening for every silent scream of terror he would draw from their mouths.
“Hurry the #### up b###h or I swear I’m going to pop a bullet right into that pretty head of yours” the guy at the till pushes his pistol closer to the tillers head, she winces and lets out a sharp cry as she frantically tries to place more money in to the opened briefcase.
“Please I’m going as fast as I can” the tiller pleads.
Meanwhile at the back of the room, behind a desk a cowering woman repeatedly presses a silent panic alarm located just above her head, as she pulls herself beneath her desk, cowering. Trying not to even breath so as to go unnoticed.

The Watchtower – Earth synchronise orbit:
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
“We have a problem” the green martian, turns for but a brief second away from his control panels. Instead focusing his eyes on to a nearby friend.
“What seems to be the problem J’onn?” the large chest of Superman is like that of a wall. Yet his voice for all his power echoes with a level of gentleness.
“We have a robbery in progress”
“Looks like a job for Sup….”
“No need I have already telepathically selected three members, Vixen, Green Lantern and Flash”
“John, Wally and Mari, why them?”
“We need to learn group dynamics, and the Kitchen can only take us so far, we need in field practice”
“Your putting their lives at risk”
“They are not beginners Kal-El, they have the necessary skills”
“I hope your right J’onn”

Edinburgh: Scotland:
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Two hours have passed, and the robbers have lost most of their power, instead they find themselves nothing more than rats trapped in a cage. Two of the robbers have already given themselves up, leaving just two left. Unfortunately one of those two, feels no loss of power instead he has already short one hostage and revealed in his screams.
A shimmer of light, like something from a star trek movie and they appear. John Stewart is the first to act.
“What seems to be the problem officer?”
“We have a god damn robbery in progress, two detained and two more inside. They already shot at least two people.”
“Understood, Mari you and me will take out the side wall, Wally I want you in and out, disarm them or take them down. Once inside ill throw a shield around the hostages and will move them to safety. Mari after taking out the wall your Wally’s back up”
“Who died and made you a guardian”
“What did you just say?”
“You heard me, you flash that ring around and suddenly you think you can boss the rest of us around”
“I was trying to save life’s”
“We all are”
“Mari, do we really need to do this now?”
“Yeah I think we do, we haven’t spoken a god damn word to each other since Ollie and me started dating”
“This is neither the time nor the place”
“Fine, but when this is other, me and you are going to talk and no ring will protect you”
With that the three heroes swing in to action, a mighty green hand shaped like a fist slams hard in to the wall, whilst at the same time a cry of “ELEPHANT” can be heard as Vixen comes crashing through the main entrance. Wally for his part is as ever a blur, speeding in amongst the rubble, he throws a series of quick punches, disarming the last two robbers.
“Their not so hard now was it” Wally’s light heartedness forces Mari to smile, even if it is just alittle.
For John however he continues his work, a emerald shield is cast around the bank staff and its customers before being airlifted outside towards medical attention. The robbers are quickly cuffed and placed under arrest, a van is soon on scene to take them away.
“You have our thanks people, we don’t know how many more innocents would have lost their lives. Witnesses are saying that the small guy was just pure evil. Didn’t seem interested in anything else but the screams he could force out of people”
“People like that aren’t in it for the money, all they want is the power”

Back Of The Police Van:
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
a flash of yellow light, like a drop of pure gold sun enters the van, the two men try and move but find themselves shackled hard against the bench upon that which they sit.
“”Mark Tracey, you instil great fear, wear this and spread that fear”
The light ebbs a little, revealing a ring that moves with thought and power; it slides on to the prisoner’s hand. Before speaking once more and before he even understands what is happening, Mark Tracey son finds himself speaking in unison with the ring.
“In blackest day, in brightest night,
Beware your fears made into light
Let those who try to stop what’s right,
Burn like my power… Sinestro’s might!”
No sooner has he said the words than does the police van explodes in blaze of yellow energy. Unharmed Mark Tracey stands amongst the wreckage, laughing as the ring gently whispers in his mind.
“See the power around you, use the fear to force my will and kill all who would oppose us”
“Yes, yes I see now”
