The doorway from the teleporter banks slammed open, startling Green Lantern and Plastic Man. Orion and his Astro-Glider roared to a stop beside the round table that dominated the Justice League's Watchtower.
"Where is everyone?"
Plastic Man appeared to be sitting in a child's playground swing, suspended from support structures above the Watchtower's Hall of Justice. The coloring of the swing "ropes" gave away that they were, in fact, his own legs. "It's just us. The others are out fighting some planet-eating menace called G'Lactose or something like that."
Orion visibly tensed. "And why was I not summoned, if there is a battle to be won?"
"Maybe because they knew you'd mmmff!" A glowing green hand had materialized over Plastic Man's mouth.
"... ah, you'd be needed here to help us with any emergencies that came up," Green Lantern said. "Superman didn't think the entire League would be needed."
Orion thought this over for a moment and apparently found it acceptable: the cords of muscle in his neck relaxed.
"What's all that?" Green Lantern said, pointing to the stack of books clutched in Orion's arms. In reply, Orion dumped the books into an untidy pile on the table.
"That is trouble. We have a major security breach. Somewhere." Orion scowled.
