Chapter 1

Awakening

AN: I will be using my profile name again in this story, for I lack the caring to create an original name at the moment, so deal with it! Anyways without further ado, I present my brand new DC Universe Online Fan Fiction: Crimson Flame!

Dante was straining his eyes as he awoke. What was around him seemed to be some sort of spaceship. Then the memories came flooding back. The bottle, the screams, his sisters screams. As he began to focus he could see a few teenagers around him. Three were girls and one was a guy. Then he notices the loud voice shooting in through his blue tooth. "-wake, now you can get off this ship and, hold on a second everyone, you in the black t-shirt and jeans!" It took a moment for Dante to realize that the voice was aimed at him. "I'm not picking up any traces of Nano bite data coming from you, why are you here?" the voice asked, waving with uncertainty.

"Nano bit? I was trying to rescue my sister from that bottle thing, next thing I know I'm up here with these guys." He answered.

"Alright well, you four protect him while you leave the ship, ka-peesh?" the voice ordered. The others just shrugged and began moving. Dante fell in behind them straining to keep up with them. "Ok listen, cause I'll only say it once while you're on this ship, the four of you with rings have the powers of the Green Lantern Corps and the other Corps. To control it use the emotion it is associated with. Girl in the blue, you must use hope to power your ring, boy in the yellow, you must use fear as your weapon, chick in the red, you must use rage to your best abilities, and finally you with the indigo ring, you must use compassion to power your ring." The voice explained. "Now hurry and move before the guards catch you!" After the lesson the group was off at frightening speeds. They easily blasted through the first four guards, it was easy sailing up until the gun chamber. "Take out the gun inside and we can get the league to your location for extraction, go!" The voice commanded once again. They quickly ran into the room and started the assault.

"Take on the thing attaching the gun first, then we take out big boy here," said the girl in blue, she seemed to have appointed herself leader. The group did as they were told quick and harsh. Then the large robot that was controlling the gun began its decent on the group.

"Prime directive: terminated, New directive: destroy escaped subjects." The robot said in a cold metallic voice. It quickly began its attack, taking down blue, red, indigo, and finally yellow. It then turned its attention on to Dante. It began charging a large blast to take him down as well. He had to act fast. Using a few acrobatic moves he had picked up watching Batman and Robin since he was 13. He jumped and flipped. He quickly took out his switch blade and threw it into the robots chest. The robot looked completely unaffected and let the blast out, slamming Dante into the wall. He struggled to stand up.

"Human, why do you continue to fight?" The robot asked raising its arm to deliver a final.

"Because I'm not going down without a fight," he said raising his hand in a fist. "So, come at me asshole." There was a loud bang as the robot shoot it's arm cannon.
