Raph didn't have time to have weird feelings over Nico saying something that was said during weddings because they had two aliens rocketing towards them.

"Uh oh."

The two Green Lanterns came flying down towards them and Raph jumped up in the air as they did, landing with a foot on each of their backs, making them divebomb to the ground with loud flumps. They hit hard enough to be dazed, their green auras temporarily disappearing due to the spell.

"Grab a ring!" Raph cried, putting his sais back in their holsters and yanking one of them off the alien's finger.

For a moment, it tried to move in his hand, as if trying to zip back to its owner, but then as the spell took hold, and the fantasy of the place accepted the two of them in, the ring chirped:

[ Raphael Hamato, of Earth, you have the ability to overcome great fear. Welcome to the Green Lantern Corps. ]

The ring expanded and flew onto his finger, and all of a sudden, his appearance was transformed. His mask turned a bright green, a few shades lighter than his skin, and the eyes of his mask turned white, as if some kind of see-through fabric was obscuring them. His belt and his elbow and knee pads all turned that same light shade of a green. Where his belt buckle was, there now appeared a symbol that looked like a lantern. Only his arm and foot wraps stayed the same dingy brown and his hand wraps stayed dingy white.

Oh, and also he floated a few feet up in the air, a green aura surrounding him.

"Heck yeah! I'm think these things can do whatever you think."
