Gardner -
The Eden Corps is targeting anybody close to me. I know Hal’s off doing space Lantern work right now so he’s hopefully out of their reach, but if you could find a way to let him know so he’s not ambushed when he gets back earthside, I would appreciate it.
B is upgrading my home security. Hal needs to know that too.
Thanks,
Ollie

Ollie, am I glad to hear from you, I was just about to contact you. These guys have targeted Dinah. I got a package left outside Warriors, I attached a picture of the note and the box contents. Not safe for Lian’s eyes…
I’ll contact Hal via ring right away. I’m gonna get Dinah to move into the Tower or even here with me and Kyle for the time being, but let me know what you need from us, okay? Does B want to look at this package himself? Also, if you want a Lantern there in your home until Hal gets back, all you have to do is say the word.
Got your back,
Guy

Get Dinah up to the Tower. Am moving all of my family out of the house, B’s security notwithstanding. I’ll be the only one staying there since I’m not the one they’re trying to kill.
Forward the photos to B; if he wants the box and contents for forensics, he’ll come collect it himself, believe me.
Thanks for ringing Hal for me. Will keep in touch.

[Ring: Incoming transmission from Lantern 2814.3]
A hologram of Guy Gardner appears above Hal’s ring.
“Hal, there’s a little trouble back home, Ollie wanted me to give ya a heads-up. Some group called Eden Corps is targeting people close to him. He’s got Batman upgrading his home security right now, so he didn’t want ya to get surprised by either Eden Corps or the security upgrades when ya get back. Kyle an’ I will do what Ollie lets us to help keep ‘em safe til yer back, buddy.”
Hal halted mid-flight as his ring flashed an incoming message. His chest tightened when he heard the message, ordering his ring to replay it so that he got all the details. Oliver was in trouble…And here he was in deep space. He’d been called out on a VERY routine sweep, the usual busy work the Guardians put them to when they felt the sector was too quiet.
It could wait.
“Ring, change course.”
Current plotted course is for an assignment. Changing course constitutes insubordination.
“Like I give a damn. Current power level?”
Ring power at 87%.
“Good. Then set a course for earth, hard burn.”
He turned around sharply, doubling back the way he’d come. The green aura around him flashed brighter, a trail forming off his feet as he flew through space. If Oliver was in trouble, he had to help…and if all of those CLOSE to Ollie were in trouble, he had to help more urgently. Roy, Mia, Conner, Kate, Dinah..God forbid Lian.
The burst of drive that thought gave him pushed him on faster, rocketing through the void of space back for the little blue planet called Earth.
“I’m comin, Ollie,” he muttered to himself.
Txt: Dinah, I need you to pack a bag and get up to the Watchtower, pronto. Someone’s targeting Ollie’s friends and you’re on their list. Stay put until I can meet with you up there, and then we’ll figure out our next move, okay, Gorgeous?
Txt: Mind giving me more information than that? Ollie’s always got people after him. Doesn’t mean I need to run away, I’m not scared. I’ve spent months aboard the Watchtower. I’d rather stay here and deal with what comes at me.
Txt: There isn’t time to argue about this. You need to trust me, they sent mailed threats targeting specific specific people, and they already made an attempt of Kate. Ollie’s moving his whole family up there, this is fucking serious, babe, so don’t make it about your wounded pride, just get up there. PLEASE.
Txt: Fine. You want me there, you got it, but if your shiny green ass isn’t there to explain things, there will be hell. I need a bit to pack but I’ll be up soon.
ATTENTION ALL LEAGUE MEMBERS

My friends, please excuse this intrusion but I feel time is of the essence. During recent investigations into the Eden Corps’ attempt on Kate Spencer’s life at the Rancho Colina Elementary School in Los Angeles, I discovered a plot that may go deeper and involve more than any of us are aware of at this time. I am not yet prepared to share the full results of what I have learned and my hunt is ongoing, but my case notes are available for review. I am afraid that making a wrong move or too sudden a move might tip the enemy to our knowledge.
But I am also worried that the enemy may already be moving against us in different and dangerous ways from the shadows. And I fear we may have waited too long.
I bring this warning: If any of you encounter a threat, even a perceived threat, from anyone claiming association with the Eden Corps, the Corps, or “E.C.”, or – and this is very important – if you see anyone or encounter anyone suspicious with markings, jewelry, or some other item resembling or giving the impression of fangs, please call for assistance immediately.
Lastly, there are three specific people for whom you should be on close watch. If you should see or are contacted by Sergeant Arin Coleman of the LAPD (( telepathic image of thirty-something, fit, Caucasian female with straight, shoulder-length brown hair )), Dr. Alex Coleman of Oregon State University (( telepathic image of forty-something, Caucasian male, receding hairline, glasses )), or Abdul al Fuq of parts unknown (( telepathic image of thirty-something, fit, olive-skinned, Arabic male with short, curly black hair )) do NOT attempt to engage. I repeat, do NOT engage. Call for assistance and inform me immediately. These are potentially very dangerous people that need to be dealt with delicately. Do not attempt to engage alone!
Be careful out there.
Also - have any of you been in contact with Zatanna? I am unable to reach her mind…
