I was looking out into the void of space. A blue Lantern was here on Earth and we had no clue who it was. Barbra was in Blud'haven dealing with a murder that happened, and it wasn't the Outlaws because they had arrived just when Barbra did. The person dead was Commissioner David, the person I placed in charge after I left. Who would kill him though, someone must be after me or wants me gone. I was brought out of my thoughts when the Watchtower's proximity alarms went off. Running over to the command panel, I look at the cameras facing out in all directions. Sector 1, clear, sector 2, clear, sector 3, clear, sector 4, cle... wait, the Blue Lantern, that's Cyborg, when did he have enough hope to wield a Blue Lantern corps ring. I go as fast I as I can to the hangar bay and open the doors. I only hope he left the Outlaws like Barbra said he had. "Nightwing, I've come to join the team" "Well Cyborg, I'm curious as to how you got that ring" Cyborg smiled at me and flew over before he landed on the ground. We started to walk to the command centre. "Well, after Barbra told me that Jason had given me half the story and that he had killed my father, I left desert island. It was on that island that I realised that if you guys still had hope for me, then I should have hope for the whole world, hope that all can be back before Jason came and twisted our minds." I nodded as we entered the command room, those who were here looked over at Cyborg and came over. And I could tell, judging by the looks on their faces, that they weren't expecting Cyborg to become a Blue Lantern Corps member. I walked over to the command console and saw that sector 1 now had a Blue Lantern corps member approaching. Hal had told me that Blue Lantern's were short in number. As he came over he landed at the hangar and walked inside. The new Blue Lantern walked into the command room and I walked over to him, Cyborg beside me. "Greetings, I am Saint Walker, the first Blue Lantern" I watch as he looks at me before he looks at Cyborg. I speak up, introducing myself "I'm Nightwing, and this, I don't know if you know already or not" "I'm Cyborg, or Victor Stone" "You will make an excellent Blue Lantern Cyborg of Earth, Blue Lantern of sector 2891, Come, we must get you a power battery for your ring, you shall then return here to help Hal Jorden in defending this sector from threats" "Good to know, let's get going, the people of Earth need my hope, and they are the best source of hope I know"

"October 9th: 6"00 EDT:

The murder of David was not an accident. The murder wasn't a common thug either. He was a trained assassin, But I knew of few people who could do this and not get caught, Deathstroke, Deadshot or a member of the League of Assassins. But who could it be, I know that the League of Assassins wouldn't be after David, Deadshot seemed to far fetched, but Deathstroke seemed like the exact person to do this. He must be after someone, but who and why. My comm beeped. Letting out a breath, I answered it. "Rich, what do you need" "I need to tell you that Cyborg is the Blue Lantern and has joined us. Also, what have you found Babs" With little information gathered, and the Outlaws on the hunt to kill who did this. "Well, I've narrowed it down to Deathstroke who killed him, but I could still be wrong, it could be Deadshot or the League of Assassins" "Hmm, it doesn't sound like something that the League would do but...." "Hold on, There's a symbol, shaped like a C, but who would that as a symbol, and why would it be here, I know the Joker left a playing card at his crimes and the Riddler left a riddle at each of his crimes, but an assassin, that doesn't make sense" "Are there any bullet marks on the body" I look over at the body and move closer to it before investigating closer. No bullet marks, but a lot of bruises and blood patches. "No, but there are a lot bruises and blood patches on the body" "So the killer didn't use a gun, what about stick or something" "These look like they came from a fist, the killer must have been fast to do it or he'll have been caught in the act" It was a few minutes before Richard replied, he must be chatting with the Flash. But who was just as fast, or possibly faster then him, both Wally and Impulse were dead. So who was the question. "Barbra, Flash just told me that a time traveller call Ebon Thrawn aka Reverse Flash aka Professor Zoom aka Zoom is faster then him and kills, but he also said that he doesn't leave calling cards or anything at his crimes" "So we have a problem then, if it was Reverse Flash, then he must be working with someone, but who?" "That we're going to have to find out"
