A scenario where two members of rival Lantern Corps - a compassionate Green Lantern and a pragmatic Star Sapphire - discover an abandoned infant while on a routine mission in the ruins of Metropolis. Forced to set aside their differences, these powerful heroes must work together to protect the child and uncover the mystery of who left her there.

In the heart of Metropolis, Jessica Cruz and her Star Sapphire counterpart were two of the Lantern Corps' finest. The Star Sapphire approached situations with a neutral perspective on the world while Jessica, as a Green Lantern, always saw the best in people. Despite their differences, both excelled in their duties, each bringing unique strengths to their work. But while they were undeniably effective together, they could never quite get along.

On a routine mission, Jessica and the Star Sapphire found themselves patrolling Earth in an area that was no one's territory—an abandoned zone where danger loomed around every corner. The air was thick with tension as the ruins of a once-thriving city stretched out before them, the smell of dust and decay hanging heavy in the air.

"You know, for a Green Lantern, you're a real pain to be around," the Star Sapphire remarked with a sharp edge in her voice, her blue energy aura pulsing slightly with irritation.

Jessica rolled her eyes in response, clearly unimpressed, as they continued to float through the desolate skyline. "Listen, Star Sapphire," she snapped back, her tone dripping with frustration. "I don't want to talk to you, and you don't want to talk to me. So let's skip the pleasantries and just look for survivors, alright?"

The Star Sapphire looked at the green lantern as she chuckled with irony. "In this hellhole? I doubt-" Yet, her words were cut short by the sudden sound of a baby's cry—a heart-wrenching noise coming from beneath the rubble of a demolished building. Without hesitation, both Lanterns shot toward the source of the sound, their rings glowing brightly as they moved to clear the debris.

Moments later, they uncovered a small figure—an infant, covered in dust, but miraculously unharmed. The baby's cries echoed in the silence of the ruined city, a sound so unexpected it hung in the air like a physical presence.

Jessica's eyes widened in shock. She glanced over at the Star Sapphire, her gaze filled with confusion and concern as she stared intensely at her rival. "That's... Unexpected."
