>Day Yellow Raincoat on Earth >Be Nightlight of the Green Lantern Corps >You are part of an elite group of a secretive society somewhere in outer space >Since you have become a ring-bearer, you have found yourself on fantastical adventures throughout the galaxy and have met so many different sentient life forms that it boggles your mind sometimes >In general, it's a pretty cool job and you are happy that you get to help aliens find harmony in their life >Even Princess Celestia was proud to know that you were a Lantern >Apparently, she dated somep0ny eons ago who was also part of the Green Lanterns and Equestria has been part of the program ever since! >You stare into your cafe as you sit on a bench in a place known as Earth >It is inhabited by strange beings called, "Humans" and they have tons of problems for you to use your powers on >Honestly, they are far from the weirdest aliens you have seen, but they make a good cup of coffee all the same! >The barista smiles with you as he hands you a small pastry >"Wow, a Green Lantern eating at my restaurant. How's everything?" "So good that I flew halfway across the galaxy this morning!" >He sort of bows and looks a bit curious >"Oh, that's great news! I hope the last time you were here, the people were just as friendly?" "Oh yes, everyp0ny here is so nice." >He salutes you oddly and speaks smartly >"Thank you for all your service, missus..." "Nightlight." >"Nightlight? Green Lantern Nightlight?" >The human smirks and his cheeks puff a little as he tries to contain his giggling >Quite a few aliens laugh at your name, but you've never gotten the joke "Thank you, sir, you are extremely kind. How much do I owe you?" >"Oh, no, it's complimentary today." >You smile at the kindness of humans "Well, I'll just finish this sentence uninterrupted and..." >Suddenly, you hear the sound of an explosion ring out not too far away "Gasp! Human vehicles exploding! That could only mean one thing!" >You just know some human left their vehicle on while pumping gasoline >The signs specifically says not to do that! >Racing around the corner, you fly quickly to see if any human was hurt >What you see, instead, is a strange sort of human wearing a yellow suit and some kind of mask covering his face >He has a ring, like your own, but it glows with a wavy, yellow light >Blasting another human vehicle, he turns to you and raises his arms >"Nightlamp of the Green Lanterns Corps! I am Anonymous the Dreaded and I am here to end you!" "My name's, 'Nightlight'! And what's wrong with your ring?" >"Nothing, my dear! I am the creeping dread and the vicious fear! I am a Yellow Lantern "Ouah! I cannot believe the things which I am hearing from you!" >You are uncertain, but every time you find yourself in a super powered face off, your dialogue sounds odd >No matter, talking is still a free action! "Whatever you are, I will stop your wicked ways! Property damage is not nice!" >You imagine a big set of hoof cuffs and let the will of your mind flow through your ring >A large, green pair of cuffs appear and you cast them at this villain >"Ha ha! Two can play at that game!" >Anonymous conjures up a giant pair of hands and your attack binds up his defense "Impossible! That always works on humans!" >"I am no ordinary man! I am the blackest fears you know!" >He recoils his energy and produces a large, spider with only six legs >"Haha! Cower before my mighty spider! Can you fill the chills running up your spine yet?" "As if!" >You are not sure if that counts as a sentence, but it is a good statement! >With a twist of your imagination, you conjure a huge, working boot and the yellow spider skitters away "You're gimp spider is no match for my mighty fashion!" >Anonymous seems to be displeased with your resilience thus far and you smirk >"Well, if spiders won't give you the jitters, lets go with another awful critter!" "Oh, Celestia, are you rhyming now?" >"What? Oh, I suppose I did. No matter!" >With a flick of his hand, a large, golden rat with slavering jaws appears before you >It charges you, but you dodge expertly to one side >A crash sounds out as the conjured beast breaks itself on your favorite coffee shop "You dirty rat, you killed my brewer!" >The wall crumbles onto the beast as a bunch of humans run out in mild panic >With how often this place is attacked by giant monsters or super villains, they are all rather used to this sort of thing "You'll pay for that!" >"I don't even pay my student loans; what makes you think I'd even attempt to fix that?" "Because I will bring you to justice!" >"Pffft, as if! Justice is just a myth! Fear is real and everyone has something they're afraid of! I will find you out, Darklight!" "My name is, 'Nightlight'! You'll have plenty of time to practice saying it in jail!" >Anon and you battle it out, causing a bit more damage to the surrounding area in the process >After about an hour of constantly discharging your powers, you both end up tired and nearly drained >"Damn you and your strong willed nature! Um, hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia!" "I don't get it..." >"It's a thing, like, some people are afraid of big words and it means to be afraid of big words because some psychologists are pretty horrible people." "Just... Just give up... I can see you're too weak..." >You heave a bit as sweat gathers at your brow "... Too weak to go on." >"Yeah, right! Anyone could see... That you're getting tired! I bet... I bet... wooh, boy... Ahem. I bet you're ready to give in to the terror!" "I'm not afraid of anything! I know how to giggle at the ghostly!" >Anonymous dashes to you with his own human legs as his power ring is notably weakened >You think you have the energy for one final attack and charge in >Without watching the cracked street, you trip over a raised edge and stumble at high speeds >You bowl Anon over as you both tumble to the ground with you ending up on top >"Head-butting? What a cheap shot..." >He tries to lift his head only to touch his nose to your own and you blush >This is a little too close, you think, and you step on him to pin him back down >Anon lets out a pained groan as you hop from him and try to cover your blush "Um, sorry, I didn't mean to do that..." >You twirl your mane once in your hoof and giggle nervously >The Yellow Lantern looks to you quickly with some renewed vigor and laughs >"I have discovered it! I know what you are scared of!" "What are you on about now?" >He quickly sits up and smirks to you before pointing his power ring at you >With your guard down, you cringe as you expect to get hit with a big, silly looking. fist shaped ball of energy >He cackles once, but you don't feel like you are being pounded into the ground >As you open your eyes, you see a yellow bundle of pretty looking roses and your face twists in fright >"For you, my dear Nightlight." "My name's...!" >You shut your mouth quickly as you realize he was correct >Anonymous rolls over from his resting place and closes in on you "S-stay back! I got a power ring and I'm not afraid to use it!" >His hands take your hooves and he presses his nose against your own again >"You don't want to use that on me though. Wouldn't you rather come out to dinner with me tonight?" >His mask sinks away with his power fading and you see a pretty human face beneath >You stammer and blush quickly as your tongue ties into knots that would make a sailor proud "I-I-I..." >"And when we finish that, we can go see a movie. I'll even buy your popcorn." >By the light of the moon, you love popcorn! >This fiend holds you in his hands and pulls you into his strong chest >With a devastating hug, your mind goes blank and your limbs go limp "Wbaabadab..." >"Yes, give into your fear. Now, all I need to do to keep your subdued is date you for the rest of my life. This is foolproof in its simplicity!" >Your face feels so hot right now and you cannot escape in your frail state >He lifts you up in his arms and begins to carry you away >You attempt to struggle one last time only to fall victim to Anonymous' cruel powers once more >"Hey, Nightlight... You're pretty cute." >Anon continues his verbal barrage of compliments as you turn three shades of red >You quiver in your embarrassment as he holds you tightly >Truly, he is a terrible, horrible, dreadful master of fear >It was an uphill kind of day
