Oh No, We're Well Past That, It's Trouble In Tokyo

Brimstone and Raven Had Been Together For About Two Years Now, Their Relationship Romantic and Sexually Active. They'd Been Seriously Considering Leaving The Hero and Anti-Hero Lives They Led Behind, To Try and Have A Normal Life Together, But They Didn't See How. Brimstone Was Also Stuck With A Kid, Or Rather Two, From An Ancient History Relationship With Blackfire. He 'd Slept With Blackfire During Recent Training, and Unknowingly Conceived A Pair Of Children, This Made Him Fearful and Combined With The Fear He Himself Instilled Called A Yellow Ring To His Finger.

He Had Recently Visited Qward As A Result Of This, He'd Sworn The Oath, But Refused To Obey Sinestro, He'd Subsequently Challenged Sinestro For The Right To Rule The Corps, and Though He Handily Beat Sinestro Bloody, Ultimately Lost. Rather Than Kill Him For His Defiance, Sinestro Took Brimstone As His Left Hand and Protege, Teaching Him Many Secrets Of The Corps and Making Him An Effective "Ring-Slinger" As The Green Lanterns Refered To Themselves and Sinestro.

Sinestro Had Trained Him So Well He'd Absorbed Decades Worth Of Experience and Knowledge In A Matter Of Months. When Sinestro Deemed Him Ready, Brimstone Returned To Earth As The First Grand Vizier and High Sinestro Honor Guardian Of The Sinestro Corps. He Was Accompanied By An Elite Honor Guard Of Sinestro Corps, Numbering No Less Than A Dozen, The Guardsmen Had Sworn a Sacred Vow To Sinestro That They'd Protect Brimstone and His Family.

Failure Of Their Vow Resulted In What They Could Only Pray Was A Quick Death, But Often Times Was not. They Knew That If They Failed To Protect Raven and Brimstone's Children, Their Only Salvation Would Lay In Sinestro Being More Merciful Than Brimstone. Brimstone Had Earned His Corps Loyalty By Fighting In The Deepest and Darkest Battles and Pits The Corps Fought At.

He Saved Sinestro Corps Members From Certain Death, and He Could Make Any Beimg Know Such Fear That He Could Sustain His Ring Indefinitely As A Result. But If You Failed To Do The Same Honor To Him, Or Worse His Family, You'd Lose Everything, Sinestro Himself Would See To that.

Brimstone Was Currently In His Room Bathing In His Lazarus Pit's Waters While Speaking To Sinestro. ''The Corps Is At War, I Must Be On The Front Lines, As Grand Vizier It's Your Job To Rule In My Stead, Return To Qward.'' Says Sinestro.

''I Will, You Can Count It, But I Must Confesss Something Teacher, I May Not Return To Earth. I Aim To Retire As An Anti-Hero and Fully Devote Myself To Raising My Sons Before Fully Joining The Sinestro Corps.'' Says Brimstone.

''Thank You For Your Commitment Grand Vizier, You'll Forever Be Known In The Annuals Of The Sinestro Corps As Brimstone The Inspired.'' Says Sinestro. ''I Am Loyal To You Lord Sinestro, The Corps Is An Extension Of Your Will and Body, Use Us As Such.'' Says Brimstone.

Sinestro Then Signs Off, and His Guard Captain, Arkillo, Approaches Him.

''Lord Brimstone, Lady Raven and Her Titans Are Engaged In a Dangerous Battle, Yet She Refused Our Aid, Your Orders?'' Asks Arkillo. ''Hmm, I'll Handle It, Have Your Men Try and Limit Civilian Casualties, Last Thing We Need Is To Prove The Green Idiots Right About Us. Just Try Not To Scare Them Too Much, It Only Helps Our Enemies If You Do.'' Says Brimstone As He Calls His Ring To His Finger.

Brimstone Is Enveloped In A Bright and Blinding Flash Of Yellow Light, His Sinestro Corps Suit Activated By His Ring and His Mask On At His Will.

''Arkillo, With Me, Rest Of You Do As Instructed.'' Says Brimstone, As He and His Guard Captain Fly Out To Assist The Titans.

They Arrived Just As Beast Boy Was Dropped By Raven.

'Babe You Alright? I Assigned Those Soldiers To You To Help You." Says Brimstone Flying Alongside Raven, and Just Close Enough To Kiss Her Cheek
