"The cosmos through,

in every part,

one thing endures:

a loving heart.

Against the knaves

who'd quell this song

Green Lanterns stand,

to right the wrong!"

Kim Possible/Green Lantern: In Brightest Day and Darkest Night

Chapter One

The planet Oa

The Center of the Universe.

Hal Jordan walked across the ruins of what used to be one of the most beautiful planets in the universe. Moments ago, he had thrown himself into the central power battery, which was the main source of all the Green Lanterns powers. Where he entered Hal Jordan, he had emerged as Parallax.

Walking past the bodies of fallen members of the Green Lantern Corps, Parallax's thoughts drifted to the events that had unfolded before him.

Denied the right to resurrect his destroyed hometown of Coast City, he had gone on a murderous rampage all the way to Oa. The guardians had sent some of their best warriors after him, all of them failing. None of them could match the will power, and anger of the greatest Green Lantern. Even Jordan's oldest foe Sinestro, and friend Kilowog had failed.

As he prepared to take his leave something caught Hal's eye. Looking down he saw his own power ring lying in the dirt. With a growl Hal brought his heel down upon the ring, smashing it into pieces. Satisfied with the destruction, Hal took off to the sky, surrounded in glowing green energy.

As he departed a small blue skinned figure emerged from a pile of similarly blue skinned bodies.

The last surviving guardian of the universe, Ganthet, stood amongst the bodies of his fellow guardians.

"I grieve for you brothers. Though we disagreed bitterly more often than not. I fear, however, there is little time for eulogies." Ganthet said sadly. "You gave me the last of your strength, and I know what must be done."

Ganthet bent down and picked up the pieces of the power ring Hal Jordan had smashed moments before.

"Our greatest champion, yet we did not stand by him in his need", he said softly, remembering Hal Jordan. "Were we then the architects of our own destruction my brothers?"

"Even this is abandoned, the symbol of all our champion was. All that we were." Ganthet continued, squeezing the pieces of the ring in his small hands, causing them to compact and glow with green energy until a new ring had formed. "It must become a symbol...once again."

Satisfied with the completion of the final Green Lantern ring, Ganthet took to the sky to the direction of Earth.

The Planet Earth

Middleton, MI

Ron Stoppable slid quietly out of the side door of the Middleton Banquet Center. He placed a rock at the bottom of the door to keep it from latching behind him, and leaned against the railing.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath of the cool night air. He loosened his necktie, and wiped his brow with the back of his sleeve.

"Amazing how hot one can get while making a fool out of one's self", Ron said to himself.

The cool May night happened to be Middleton's prom dance. Ron had spent the last hour proving to his date, Kim Possible, that he was a "bon diggity dancer". He had finally snuck away during a song that Kim and the other senior girls had dedicated to each other.

Ron was having a good time, and didn't want any emotional senior year nonsense to interfere, though he suspected it would at some point.

He opened his eyes and looked up towards the clear night sky. A green twinkling caught his eye, and he stood up straight and squinted, trying to get a better view.

"Falling star or something", Ron muttered, "maybe I should make a wish."

As Ron considered what to wish for, he noticed something else about the green comet.

"Holy...", he said, his eyes widening, "It's coming right at me!"

Startled, Ron jumped over the railing and off the side of the small concrete porch that led to the door. As his feet hit the ground on the other side, he saw the bright green flash from where he was standing moments before.

Ron crept around to the side of the porch to the front and looked at the base of the stairs. Where the green comet had hit, stood a short blue man in a red robe.

Ron's eyes widened as he realized what he was looking at.

"Little blue alien dude, what's up?"

Ganthet studied Ron for a moment before he spoke.

"Kim Possible."

"Go figure." Ron smiled, "She's inside, I'll go get her for you"

"No." Ganthet stated simply. "You will have to do."

Ganthet took Ron's hand in his and placed a small green object in it. Ron looked down at what he had been given. In his hand was a green ring, with an emerald lantern on the end of it.

"What's this? What am I supposed to do with this?"

"What you must." Ganthet said.

"What?" Ron asked, his brow furrowed in confusion.

Before he could get an answer though, Ganthet disappeared in a flash of green light.

Ron stood there for a moment, as his mind tried to process what had just happened.

He looked down at the ring before deciding to put it on.

"At least he didn't ask me to marry him" Ron chuckled as he slid the ring on his right middle finger.

Ron gasped at the feeling that suddenly overcame him. It was as if he could feel pure energy rushing over, and through him. He then noticed the green aura around him, and his sudden change in clothes.

Gone were Ron's khakis and blue collared shirt and tie. In their place was a form fitting green and black costume. The green started at his shoulders and went all the way down to his waist, covering the majority of his torso. His boots were green and his gloves white. In the middle of his chest was the same symbol that was on the end of his ring. A green lantern. A green mask covered Ron's eyes as well.

"Whoa" Ron gasped, taking in his new appearance.

"What are you, little ring?" he said, looking down at this middle finger. "I've got to tell Kim about this."

Ron started back towards the door before he stopped suddenly.

"I can't go in there looking like this though."

Ron wished he had his old clothes back, and as he thought about them, they suddenly reappeared, replacing the mysterious costume.

"Way badical" he smiled as he snuck back into the gymnasium.

---

Kim Possible stood in front of the punch table, scanning the crowd in the banquet center for any sign of her date. She had seen him slink off when they had started to play the senior girls song, but she had lost track of him after that.

"Hey KP."

Kim jumped slightly and turned around to face Ron, who had somehow gotten behind her.

"Where did you take off to?" Kim asked raising an eyebrow at Ron.

"Stepped outside for some air, but that's not important right now. You'll never guess..."

"It's going to have to wait Ron, Wade just beeped in. Duff Killigan is attacking the Lowerton Golf Dome, if we leave now and make it quick, we can make it back for the end of the dance and the party at Tara's"

"But Kim" Ron started again holding out his right hand.

"Later Ron" Kim said, grabbing Ron's extended hand. "Our ride's should be here by now, lets hit it."

---

The ride to Lowerton was about ten minutes by car. However the ride was much shorter if you went as the crow flies, with a prototype rocket glider strapped to your back.

"I can't believe the nerve of Killigan. Attacking someplace on the night of our senior homecoming!" Kim complained into the microphone built into her helmet.

"Yea, what a jerk" Ron's voice came into her ear.

Kim glanced at Ron out of the corner of her eye. Though he had certainly got better at using the gadgets Wade had been developing over the years, he was still a little shaky at times. Tonight however, he glided along calmly, not making any comments except in response to Kim's own.

"Are you alright Ron?"

"Never better KP" he responded, giving her a wink.

Kim rolled her eyes and turned back to the landscape below them. The Lowerton Golf Dome had been built over the summer to accommodate golfers in the winter months. The large white roofed dome included a driving range, a nine hole par three course, a putt-putt course, and of course a lavishly stocked Pro Shop.

"Look there", Ron said pointing at the very top of the dome.

Kim followed Ron's finger, and saw what he was indicating. A large hold had been torn in the roof, and parked next to it was what appeared to be a golf cart with a helicopter rotor stemming from the roof.

Kim and Ron glided down and landed softly next to the opening.

"Nice wheels." Ron commented as he looked over the golf cart.

"Focus Ron? We need to make this quick." Kim said as she slapped Ron on the arm.

"Right, dance...party, gotcha." Ron replied with a mock salute. "So what's the plan?"

"Find Duff, hit him hard, and get out of here." Kim said as she pulled a pair of night vision binoculars from her belt and peered through the opening into the golf dome. "And there he is, over by the driving range."

Kim put the binoculars back into her belt, and dove down through the opening, gliding towards Duff's location. Ron watched her path for a moment, and then dove in after her.

Kim landed softly behind Killigan, and unhooked her backpack. She watched Killigan, who appeared to be replacing all the buckets of driving range balls, with his own brand of balls. Kim looked above him, watching Ron float down, and waited for her opening.

Ron dropped down smoothly enough, but purposefully loud. Killigan immediately stopped what he was doing, and turned his attention to Ron.

"Alright Doof, playtimes over." Ron stated confidently.

"I beg to differ laddie, I say it's just beginning" Killigan replied, as he pulled three metal golf tee's from his bag, and threw them at Ron.

Ron dove to his left, avoiding the tee's that went whizzing past, sticking into the wall behind him. As Ron dove, Kim made her move from the shadows. She ran up behind Killigan, grabbing the shoulder straps of his golf bag. She then vaulted over top of him, and tossed him over her head as she landed.

Killigan hit the wall hard, sending the golf clubs from his bag scattering.

"Aye, guess I should've seen that coming eh?" he moaned rubbing the back of his head. "Then again, you should probably have seen this coming to lass."

Killigan reached into his belt and withdrew a silver ball marker out and pressed the center of it. Kim's eyes widened as she heard all the balls in the range buckets began beeping next to her. She had barely enough time to turn with the blast, as the range buckets exploded.

"Kim!" Ron cried over the blast, as he ran to where his partner had been knocked.

Ron reached Kim, and rolled her over on to her back. She had a large gash on her forehead and several cuts on the rest of her body, but for the most part she was in tact.

"Kim? Are you okay?"

"Never better. Don't think I'll be up for much more dancing though" she replied with a half smile, half wince.

Ron smiled softly, and then turned his attention to Killigan. He gasped when he saw Killigan lining up another explosive golf ball, ready to blast away with his pitching wedge.

"Fore!" Killigan yelled as he swatted at the ball, sending it high into the air.

"Nice shot idiot, but we're down here" Ron said as he stood ready to take Killigan down.

"I wasn't aiming for you, and Duff Killigan never misses" Killigan responded, pointing above Ron.

Ron turned his eyes upwards just in time to see Killigan's golf ball striking a large metal sign indicating the location of the driving range. The ball exploded, sending jagged pieces of metal crashing down upon Ron and Kim.

"Ha!" Killigan laughed, surveying his victory, while he danced a brief victory dance.

"Wait till I tell Dr. Drakken that I finally...what?" Killigan stopped his dance and stared at the pile of rubble. Underneath the metal appeared to be glowing green.

"What in the name of St. Andrews fairways?" Killigan muttered.

Then, before he could react, the green energy pulsed outwards, revealing a green bubble surrounding Ron and Kim. The energy pulse sent the metal debris flying in every direction. A smaller piece came at Killigan, and before he could react, smacked him in the forehead, knocking him unconscious.

Ron stood and looked at Killigan, then down to his right hand. The emerald ring he had worn outside of his glove still glowed with the green energy that had formed the bubble.

"I just thought about it...and it was there." He muttered to himself.

"Ron?" Kim's voice snapped Ron out his daze. "What was that?"

"I don't know KP. But it totally rocked."

Ron turned to Kim and grinned slightly, then bent over to help her to her feet.

"Gonna be alright? Or should we wait for an ambulance to get you checked out?"

"I'll be fine, lets just get back and cleaned up for the party, ok?" Kim said, wiping a bit of blood from her lip.

"Sounds good to me, lets get going. I'll drive" Ron smiled as he wrapped his arm around Kim's waist and activated his jet pack, taking them back towards the opening in the roof.

"Ron?"

"Yea?"

"When did your eyes become green?"

---

Duff Killigan grumbled to himself as the police led him out of the Golf Dome. Being beaten by Kim Possible was one thing, but to have taken her down and be bested by the sidekick was a whole new level of shame.

"Green bubble, what is that all about anyway", he groaned as a police officer led him into the back of the paddy wagon.

"Excuse me, Mr. Killigan." A man wearing a plain black suit spoke as he approached the villain. "Did you say something about a green bubble?"

"Aye lad. Plasma or some nonsense."

"I see" The man studied Killigan for a moment before reaching into his suit coat and pulling out his wallet.

"Agent Saunderson, FBI, I'll take him from here officer", he said holding out his FBI identification card.

The officer glanced at the wallet and shrugged, giving Killigan a shove towards Saunderson.

"An' what does th' FBI want with me?" Killigan asked as Saunderson led him to his car.

"Mr. Killigan, you may have just provided us with a vital clue to a side project some of us at the Bureau have taken an interest in."

Kim sat wide-eyed on the edge of a bed in a spare room at Tara's house. Ron was finishing telling her the most ridiculous story she had ever heard; yet she had to believe him.

"And then he gave me this, and told me to do what I had to with it" Ron finished, holding out his right hand to show Kim the ring.

"A lantern." Kim stated looking at the ring. "It's so beautiful, I've never seen a material like it before.

"I know, but it gets better." Ron grinned like an idiot. "Check this out."

With a mere thought, Ron's mission clothes were gone, replaced with the strange uniform from the first time he put the ring on.

"It comes with its own costume", Ron said twirling around for Kim to get a good view.

Kim stared at Ron for a moment, not truly believing what she saw, trying to make some sense out of the whole situation. As she stared at the emblem on Ron's chest, realization struck her.

'Of course! I know that symbol, it's a green lantern."

"Well thanks for that captain obvious" Ron said shaking his head.

"As in THE Green Lantern, dummy, the superhero."

Kim sighed at the confused look Ron gave her. She was amazed at how dense he could be sometimes. She reached into her pocket and pulled out her Kimmunicator.

"Wade, can you bring me up a brief bit of history on the superhero Green Lantern?" she asked the boy genius.

"Sure Kim, I'll have it before you can say...done!" Wade smiled, as his image was replaced with a video.

Kim motioned for Ron to sit next to her on the bed, and he did so leaning in close so he could get a view of the video that was being played.

The video was showing a series of news clips and action photographs of some men wearing a costume exactly like Ron's. Wade spoke over the video giving them a few facts.

"The Green Lantern Corps. is an intergalactic peace keeping force. Members of the Corps. are given power rings, which from what I hear, are limited only by the bearers will power and imagination. The three guys I'm showing you are the Green Lanterns that have protected earth over the years."

An image of an older looking man appeared on the screen. He wore the same suit as Ron, but had brown curly hair, which was white around his ears.

"This is probably the most recognized Green Lantern." Wade continued. "As with most of the big superheroes his identity is secret. What is known about him is pretty impressive. A list of heroics and accolades to long to list, and he was a member of several Justice League incarnations. His base of operations seemed to be Coast City for a long period of time, and he hasn't been seen since the city was destroyed two weeks ago."

Wade took a deep breath after rattling off the information Kim had requested. Kim smiled as Ron sat on the bed with a dumbfounded look on his face, staring down at the ring.

"Thanks Wade, as usual you rock." Kim said into her Kimmunicator.

"I know." Wade smiled "But if you don't mind me asking, why the GL history lesson?"

"Well, I think there might be a new Green Lantern in town Wade." Kim smiled as she turned the Kimmunicator towards Ron.

"No way..." Wade whispered, his eyes wide and jaw gaping.

Ron finally looked up from his ring, and turned to Wade and Kim. A grin slowly spread across his face as he stood up, the ring glowing bright green.

"Oh yes. Way badical."
