((Would you mind staying in the past-tense when you post? It's less confusing that way.)) With seemingly superhuman speed, Elasa whipped around, used her ring to encase the car in a bubble, and she gently set it back down on the ground. The men, obviously, were too frightened to move, so Elasa resumed her calming of them and turned to Scott, cocking her head slightly; the robbers were not a threat and wouldn't be leaving anytime soon.
"Excuse me," she asked him politely, "May I ask why you attacked the transport of these men? They have done nothing to harm you, I hope?" she asked, her tone innocent and unassuming. She didn't seem upset in the least at what he had done.

((Sure thing!))
Scott pulled over, once he watched what the alien did. Telekinesis? No it's something else, no telekinesis can do that without strain. Even Jean had problems when she tried to move a car, yet this alien did it without even flinching. His eyes followed the car back down to the ground; Scott's cursed eyes wandered at the sound of the patrol car slowly making their way to the scene. The alien had asked him why he attacked. He felt weary, but nevertheless answered her question.
"I had to stop a robbery, no civilians were here to face the consequences of my actions, so I took the shot." Scott told the purple haired alien, "Now that I answered your question, answer mine; who are you?"

Elasa gave Scott a warm, friendly smile, and a stiff bow of greeting that was common among her people.
"I am Elasa Atu'me, Blue Lantern of Universal Sector 5. Who are you?" she asked, her tone still light. "And I do not mean to sound chastising, but violence was highly unnecessary."
She turned back to the robbers, who by this time were getting out of their car, and asked: "Will you please return what you stole, and turn yourselves in to the proper authorities?"
The robbers were so dumbfounded by this question, they didn't speak for a few moments. They looked to each other, and the two lackeys seemed to surrender immediately. The first one however raised his gun.
"Look," he said, "no goody-two-shoes Lantern is gonna have me go to jail! I need this money! My boys here were just along for the ride and we were gonna split it three ways."
Elasa didn't seem fazed by the man drawing his weapon. She aimed her ring at him, and a rope-like construct of bright blue energy shot out of it, slowly twisting over to the man and disarming him with ease. Elasa used the construct to bring the gun closer to herself, and she frowned.
"I do not understand how these weapons shoot fire and can hurt people by making small holes in them," she said aloud. Zesoranael had not told her of Earth weaponry, after all, and it wasn't like she could read any Earth languages.

Cyclops expected many things, but being bowed by a female alien was not what he was really expecting at this time. He reeled back as information began to pour out of her. Is she for reals? Did she really tell him about her? She didn't even give him a code name or something. It was just pure information. Cyclops slowly tried to wrap his mind around the fact that not only did she bow but she also told him her name. Her real name!
The man shook his head, only to snap it back up when he heard the safety of a gun being switched off. He quickly turned around and saw one of the robbers aiming a beretta at the alien. In a flash Scott watched as a rope like silhouette emerged from the woman's ring and tied it around his gun and yanked it out of his hands. "You b!tch!" the man words were cut off as the man pulled out a knife and ran to the alien.
"Die-"
The man was blasted to an apartment complex, being blasted by the same concussive beam that flipped over the robber's car with ease. Cyclops glared at the other two. "Anyone else want some sleep?" the two other lackeys shook their heads as Scott deactivated his power. "I thought so." the optic powered mutant lowered his hand from his vizor.
He glared at the two, not bothering to look at the other.
"Cyclops." he said suddenly...
...
...
...
"My name is Cyclops."

Elasa heard what was said by Scott, but she didn't respond. She let the gun drop-- thankfully it didn't go off when it fell-- and she hurried over to the location of the man who had attacked her. She created a man-sized slab out of the blue energy from her ring, gently picking the man up. Her ring informed her that his internal wounds were severe, and he was close to death due to the force of impact. The man may have attempted to hurt Elasa, but it was simply not in her nature to let something like that get in the way of what she thought was right.
She gently placed the barely-conscious man down onto the empty road and crouched down beside him, and then blue energy came out of the Power Ring she wore and covered the man's body. After about thirty seconds, the light faded, the man was unconscious, but his body and clothes looked as if the attack from Scott had never occurred. His wounds were all healed, and Elasa smiled, happy that she had been able to save the man's life regardless of what he had attempted to do to her.
She slowly stood up and faced the other two would-be robbers. "Your friend is safe. I would advise delivering him to the nearest authorities." she said to them, before turning back to Cyclops. Ordinarily she would have been upset that he had turned to violence so quickly, but she was happy enough with saving the lead robber's life.
"Sai... Klops," she said, attempting to pronounce his "name".((I'm liking this contrast between the two.))

Cyclops stared at the scene with disbelief. She healed him? That man was about to shoot her, and stab her, and she healed him!? He gritted his teeth as he gave a warm smile to the robbers, just what the hell was she smiling for?! They did the crime, they robbed the bank! One of them was about to hurt or even kill her if didn't interveine! Just what the hell was she smiling about?! He felt and heard his fingers crack under the pressure of putting his hand into a fist, clenching it to the point where it was almost going to bleed.
The alien was trying to pronounce his name, Scott shook his head and walked back to his bike. "If your from outer space," Scott began as he pulled out his sunglasses. "Then why did you come here, to Earth?" he closed his eyes while pulling off the vizor to replace with his ruby quartz sunglasses. "What is you purpose, what is your goal here on Earth."
((It's like a little yin-yang relationship going on between the two.))

Elasa noticed how... angry Scott was getting, and she frowned. Had she offended him?
"I was sent here by Ganthet, leader and founder of the Blue Lantern Corps, initially to find the Green Lanterns of Sector 2814-- the Universal Sector that Earth resides in. If I could not find them, then I was told to assume their duties as a protector of this planet, and I have been attempting to do so to the best of my abilities since my arrival. As for my overall purpose, I believe that it is my purpose in life to give Hope to those that need it most. That is why I am a Blue Lantern. Our Corps exists to spread Hope across the universe." Elasa explained.

M.O.L.L.Y. stopped to watch the Blue lantern and Cyclopes bicker. Her bright yellow eyes kept up with every movement as she recorded the scene.
As interesting at this was it didn't take the young robot long to get bored. Once Cyclopes introduced himself she couldn't help but open her mouth "Hi! I'm M.O.L.L.Y.!" She spoke up.

Hope...another word that brought bane to his life. Literally. The Messiah of the mutants, give him a break. Hope brought nothing but death and misery. It was Hope that almost brought a schism to the Mutant world, it was Hope that brought Bishop to accidentally shoot Professor Xavier in the head. It was...Scott took a breath and calmed himself down. "Lady, if you here to bring Hope, then do yourself a favor and back off now." Cyclops warned her as he got onto his bike. "Hope is only for the weak, give it to them too much and we'll depend on it to the point where we kill people for it. The world is cruel and cold, and hope will just make it worse."
Hope made him lose Lorna...
He was about to start up the motorcycle when all of the sudden...a voice? It was young, and...happy? He searched around for the voice and found himself staring at a small girl...Molly? No, a robotic voice like that? It's an acronym.
Scott was really regretting replacing his visor with his glasses.

(RRRRRRRAAAAAAHHHH.... *yawns* I love naps... Also, I may be wrong but I'm not sure if MOLLY's voice is actually mechanical.)) Elasa frowned at Scott's words; he reminded her of Zeso, prior to his conversion into the "Dark Blue" Lantern.
"Hope is what gives strength to those who need it most," she countered gently. "It is hope which gives us the will to live."
She floated over to MOLLY, smiling and seemingly oblivious to the cyborg's nature, and introduced herself in the same manner she had to Scott.

((Oncaro is correct. She sounds like the child she was made to resemble. She does not sound mechanical in any way.))
M.O.L.L.Y. tilted her head at Scott. "You don't speak to me. Do you not like me?" Her golden yellow eyes started to fill with tears until Elasa spoke to her.
She smiled at the Blue Lantern. "You glow. I've never seen a blue, green lantern before."

Elasa gave MOLLY a warm smile. "Not long ago, I had not seen such people either," she said kindly. "I am from a very different planet than Earth, and am still getting used to life here."

What Molly said totally threw Scott off his A-Game, especially the way she reacted. Scott wasn't the type to really get hard onto kids. Also there weren't any assassins that involved with kids so he was a bit unsure on what to do. The master tactician scratched his head before slowly making his way to the girl and lightly patting her on the head. "I'm sorry." Cyclops apologized as the girl's eyes slowly filled up with tear. Great. Now what? Luckily for him the other one began to talk. Once again she introduced herself to the alien without thinking of the consequences that were to come for giving out personal information like charity. Especially telling anyone that she's new to the planet. That's a rookie mistake. He know he should be more strict and more stern in this situation, but damn it to hell, he just made a kid cry. He won't turn into Wolverine and make children cry. He definitively won't. He slowly looked over to the alien and sighed.
"Where the hell is the nearest Ice Cream shop?"

M.O.L.L.Y. blinked and giggled when Scott rubbed her head. "I have to continue surveying the planet for Daddy. But thank you for the offer of delicious ice cream."
She started walking off then stopped and looked back at Scott. "Do you think I could ride with you Mr. Cyclopes?" She used his code name out of respect.

A ride? Seriously? Him? He's not some damn taxi cab that can be asked to give rides around. Besides, he needs to get back to Lorna- Scott winced at the thought. What would Lorna do if she were still alive and a little child had asked for her to take her somewhere.
She'd probably say yes and take her wherever the hell she wants to go... he tiredly thought to himself, and with a great sigh he pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Fine...just nothing out of State alright?" He muttered as he grumbled to himself. First he goes to San Francisco, then becomes part of the X-Force, then he goes to some alternate reality where Apocalypse apparent screwed everyone over there. Then he brought all the mutant kind in one place for one unity. Now he's trying to get back home only to be someone's taxi. Cyclops threw a helmet at Molly for her to wear. He looked at the alien.
"For some odd reason...I feel like I'm probably going to regret this in the end." He muttered as he put on his racing gloves.((Is your character going to follow with us?))
