Chapter One: An Insider

AN: I decided to make this spin off of my scorpion story The Team to tell the story of the new character that I had created for the story, so you guys would have a better understanding of who this kid is. I also thought that it would nice to have a story arranged in the proper way since The Team is my first Fan Fic, and I had never written one before, so the chapters, for some reason, are really lengthy. Hope you enjoy Brian's spin off story and for reference, this story takes place after bullets, or chapter seven.

Brian is not your average thirteen year-old boy, he's different, he's a genius. He didn't know it until he was thirteen, he just knew that he was different than the other kids he had ever been around.

His mother died from a prolonged illness that had affected her since around the time he was born. He spent the first few years of his life with her, and only ever knew her. He didn't want to interact with other children, he much rather wanted to be at home with his mother.

With her he felt safe.

His father then came back into the picture when he heard that he had another son. Brian didn't care much for his father, even though his father tried to connect with him. His father would come home with some new shoes for him, or new a baseball mit for him as well. Brian didn't want those, he would much rather get a new hard drive or a new book, or even a chemistry set.

His father didn't understand that, or him.

A few years after his mother passed, his father realized that he couldn't raise Brian all by himself, and brought him to Los Angeles to meet his half-brother, and Paige.

Brian enjoyed being with his half-brother, and the team. He didn't feel different anymore or like an outsider, he felt safe, just like how he did when he was with his mother.

Paige was like his mother, and Walter was like his father, Happy was his aunt who showed him how to fix anything he needed to fix, and Toby was his cool uncle who showed him magic tricks, and told him funny jokes, Sylvester was his uncle who showed him how to stay clean, and keep organized, and Cabe was his grandfather who taught him how to be more human, and how to stay safe from bullies.

When he was with them, all of them, he knew that he wasn't an outsider anymore, he was an insider.
