See you on the Island
Ganthet had, due to his dealings with the leaders of the various Corps, left the New Guardians alone for far longer than he would have preferred.  He had been there to offer the occasional piece of guidance and philosophy, but was well aware of how much had transpired in his absence.

He was, however, immensely proud of them all.  They had risen to the challenges before them like he knew they would, like the heroes he knew they could become.

Now, however, he had appeared in their home. 

"New Guardians," he said, using his power so that his voice would reach each of them.  "I would speak with you."

Heather had been in her studio, working on an old fashioned clay sculpture, without much success. She just didn't have the tactile sensation in her hands she needed to do any good with it.

It looked like it was going to be crystal or nothing, if she wanted to keep going down the artist road.

The voice caused her to look up, and she headed to the living room to investigate.

Lenny was in the computer room working on what was quickly becoming his pet project, their new intelligence archives, when Ganthet's message rang in his head.

"Freaking smurf," Lenny mutters, rolling his way to the living room.

Harry had been going home after a shift working at the community center when he hears the voice. Looking around to make sure nobody else heard it, he whispers his response. "Umm...can we do this somewhere else please?"

Andy was always a bit skittish when the Big Smurf on Campus showed up, so when Andy hears the voice of Ganthet the movements are slow and skittish.

Saishu got very used to her mother calling her for drills - at any time, all hours. She's used to calls to action, and responds appropriately. No questions, no hesitation, just sheathing the swords she's practicing with, and moving quickly to the communal area to wait for the others.

Jess is just coming back from another run. She rubs at her sweaty scalp and takes a sip from her water bottle.

"All right. I'll be right there."

Ganthet waited until they were all together, before he began. "Firstly," he said, "I must apologize for my absence. Bargaining between the Guardians, the Zamarons, and members of the Indigo Tribe to insure your safety has not quite been the easy project I thought it would, but they continue to trust you to my guidance. The Corpsmen at large as yet remain unaware of your existence."

Not to mention the cautionary steps being taken to make sure that Sinestro, Atrocitus, and Larfleeze did not learn of these brave young Earthmen.

"Further, I must express my pride in how you have handled yourselves in my absence. Hector Hammond has even vexed the veteran Lanterns of this world and you defeated him rather soundly.

"But I would like to further your training today. There are certain spiritual aspects I would like to bring to the fore, and also direct you further in the development of your abilities."

Lenny is biting his tongue, resisting the urge to tell off this blue dwarf. Gee, training, a novel concept. Where was training when we started this bullshit!?

Harry stays quiet too, not wanting to ask what specific bargaining the Indigo tribe needed. Surely they wouldn't come for him?

Besides, as much as he knows it's good to work on his powers...training involves fighting. And he hates that stuff.

"Training, yes. Will be good."

No need to persuade Saishu in this, she seems entirely enthused to get some further direction in use of her powers. Likewise, no one needs to tell her Atrocitus is a threat. She has revenge to get - when she's ready. And this can be a step in that.

"Sounds... all right, I guess," Heather said. She really wasn't sure about it, though. Every time, just about, they got involved in something involving them and their powers, she got broken.

"Am not understanding...what is meant by 'spiritual'?" Andy asks, shifting a bit at the words. Andy never really had much understanding in regards to spiritually, so this is a bit confusing to the android.

"In a nutshell, Andy, 'spiritual' means 'there may be metaphors.'" She looks back to Ganthet. "Let's hear some specifics."

"An apt way to put it, Miss Lord," Ganthet said, with a slight nod. "I would like to take you out of this city. There is an island, where one of my brother Guardians and his Zamaron bride once sought to teach those who held the name New Guardians before you."

He bowed his head briefly. "There, I hope to instruct you into tapping more deeply into your powers and what you are capable of doing with them. In doing so, it is my hope that you may gain better knowledge of what each of your aspects means."

"So you're going to take us to some place in the middle of nowhere? Right, like nothing bad ever happens in the middle of nowhere," Lenny said sarcastically. "And what if one of your old Green Lantern sparring buddies shows up? You going to leave us out to to dry or actually help us?"

"Lenny, I totally see where you're coming from, but Saishu's right." She smiles at Ganthet. "Not that I need a lot on what mine means. Ophie's a little bitch. We'll manage fine."

Harry's silently cheering for Lenny for standing up to Ganthet like that, and also because he agrees with the other guy's points. But if Cindy said they should do it then...well Cindy was the boss. She knew best. So Harry just sighs and resigns himself to whatever the Ganthet was going to put them through.

Heather absently rubbed her arm, right around where it had been shattered during the fight with Hammond. It didn't hurt anymore, and it had grown back in a few days, but it was still a reminder that they faced some dangerous things and that, for all their power, they could be hurt.

"Makes sense," she said. She moved over, next to Lenny, though.

"...I think I understand my power but.." She shrugs.

"More training never hurt." Secretly she wishes she could look normal again but she won't say that out loud because she would feel like a heel. Heather has it way worse than she does.

"I'm ready when ya all are."

Andy begins to tap into the information flowing about, the various generations of wireless technology being tapped.

"Parallax: being of Fear, attached to Hal Jordan after destruction of Coast City. Was born of First Fear. Is understanding good? Do...not want to hurt any if using powers."

The fear powered robot? Slightly cowering.

"Your concerns are noted, Leonard," Ganthet said. "And... valid. I should not have left you alone to face Hammond, and for that, I am sorry."

He went on, "You have my pledge, however, that should anything happen, I will do everything my my power to protect you."

"I will help protect. And train hardest." She knows her role on this team, and even if she sees the value of training, she doesn't especially like it when others on her team are uncomfortable, even when she doesn't entirely understand why.

"Well..I appreciate you saying so," Lenny said, conceding his worries for the moment. Heather standing near him doesn't hurt to keep him in a slightly better mood. He saw her rub her arm. Anybody even thinks of breaking her and he will go hopeful on their ass.

For some reason Harry doubts Ganthet's promise. He'll trust Cindy to get them out of any serious problems, Ganthet can help if he's there but Harry is going to place his trust in someone who is dependable.

"Umm...when are we starting?"

Heather trusts the six other humans in the room with her more than she trusts Ganthet, though she also admits he's done them no true wrongs either.

She rested a hand on Lenny's shoulder.

"Okay. I guess."

"All right then." Jess doesn't see them having much of a choice. They need to learn about themselves and what they can do.

"Will not let others make me Alone agaun. Will help protect," Andy says, returning a small smile to Cindys. "Will train for them."

Ganthet nodded. "Good. We will leave in one Earth hour. Dress comfortably, for a tropical environment."
