Going Blue

Odym

I heard the Team come back through the Zeta-tube as I was putting my clothes in my backpack. A few minutes later Artemis nearly stomped her way to my door. "Where were you?!" she cried out. "We were out there getting our butts handed to us by Clayface and you're in here... packing?" She said as she finally took a look at what I was doing. "Are you going somewhere?"

I nodded, "Saint Walker called me back to Odym for a week. It's just the average check up on my progress, happens every year." I zipped up my bag and put it on before grabbing my lantern.

"Oh. When are you leaving?"

"Right now, if I can," I said, and gave her a hug. "I'll be back in a week, and you can ask Batman or Robin if you want to talk to me, so no need to worry."

"Actually, I was wondering if I could go with you," Rob appeared in my doorway.

Shrugging I said, "it's fine with me, but did you check with B?"

He nodded and motioned to his duffle on the ground, "wouldn't be asking you if I hadn't gotten the 'go ahead' from him."

"Sweet," I motioned for him to go on as I turned back to Artemis. "I'll bring you something from Odym if you want."

She smiled, "are there any plants there that would grow here?"

I smirked, "you haven't seen my greenhouse back in Coast City. Ivy would cry out in joy if she saw it."

Artemis laughed slightly, "we always did say you had the green thumb." We hugged again and as she held me she said, "be careful up there ok? And I don't just mean whatever is up there already. I've seen the way Robin looks at you, so be careful around him got it?"

I furrowed my eyebrows, confused, and cautiously nodded. After separating I went to the main entrance where Rob was waiting. Waving goodbye to M'gann and Superboy, I let my suit materialize and floated up. Turning back around I constructed a bubble around Robin and took off, quickly leaving the atmosphere and heading for deep space.

A few hours at light speed and a wormhole trip later and I could finally see the lush blue planet of Odym, home of the Blue Lantern Corps. I smiled and turned to see Robin laying down taking a nap; so I decided to mess around with him. "Attention passenger," I said, startling him awake. "Airline Lantern welcomes you to our final destination: the planet Odym. For your safety and the safety of those around you, please remain seated with your seatbelt fastened and keep the aisle clear as we make our final approach."

"... not funny Eve," Dick said as he saw me giggling. "There aren't even any-"

"Seat belts?" I interrupted as said item popped up from the bubble. I dropped my smile, "seriously though; hang on. I'm not the best at smooth reentry with passengers." Turning to face the planet I stopped and started looking. "Where was the battery again?"

"You don't know where we're going?!"

"I haven't been here in a year and it's a big planet! Give me a break!" I once again focused on Odym and was trying to remember when I heard a familiar voice behind me.

"It is good to see you again Sister Evelyn."

I turned to see, "Brother Warth! Sister Sercy!" I flew over and gave Sister Sercy a hug.

"You have come to check your progress I take it?" Brother Warth asked as I pulled away.

I nodded in response, "indeed Brother Warth. Is Saint Walker here?"

They nodded and motioned for us to follow them. On the way down Sister Sercy floated up to me and whispered, "you forgot where the battery is again, didn't you?" I sheepishly nodded as she laughed slightly.
