Return of the Eastlandians:
A Brainiac 5 Story
Enter
"Brainy! What do we do?" Superman yelled.
Brainy stayed silent. 'What was she doing? What was she trying to accomplish?'
The Legion charged again, desperately trying to get the field disrupter from the girl. She leapt out of the way of Lighting Lad, Saturn Girl, and Phantom Girl into Brainiac 5 and Superman.
But she seemed to anticipate this. She spun around in mid-air and threw 2 small green rocks at Superman. He didn't realize what they were but jumped back on an instinct. She then focused her black eyes on Brainy.
"Alex?" she said, her eyes widening into yawning black caves. "Is it really you?" she took a step forward.
"What are you talking about?" Brainy asked. "Give us back the field disrupter."
She rolled her eyes. "Nah. I think I'll finish what I'm doing here and then give it back."
"In pieces? Do you think we're going to fall for that?" Lighting Lad shouted.
"As soon as the portal is opened you'll get it back exactly the way it was." She replied. The girl started to mutter strange words under her breath. The field disrupter hummed and rose into the air.
"What are you trying to do?" Brainiac 5 yelled.
"You'll see Alex." She whispered. The mutterings grew in intensity.
"My name's not Alex." Brainy said.
"Are you sure you don't know her?" asked Lighting Lad.
"Of course not!"
Lighting Lad flew in front of the girl. "Give us the field disrupter or we'll have to do this the hard way." He got circles of electricity around his hands.
"You people really need to calm down." She said as she dodged an attack from Lightning Lad. She stopped under the field disrupter. "Snantri! Snantri!" She yelled.
The field disrupter pulsed a yellow-green color and a circle of air swirled together. Through the swirling air you could see some bushes and trees. "Yes!" the girl yelled. She ran past super man and Saturn Girl. They made a grab for her but she easily dodged and threw another bunch of rocks at Superman. Brainiac 5 and Phantom Girl stepped in front of the hole.
"You stop here." Phantom Girl said.
"So now you associate with these people Alex? What an Earth-"
"My name's not ALEX!" Brainiac 5 yelled. This was really getting on his nerves. "I don't even know you."
She shrugged. "That hurts Alex. That really hurts." She sighed. "Blah, blah, blah, too many words and I don't care anymore. I'm leaving."
The circle was getting smaller every second. The girl dived inside it knocking in Brainy and Phantom Girl with her.
The field disrupter pulsed a purple-red color and fell to the ground. The circle of trees and bushes, Phantom Girl, Brainiac 5, and the girl had all disappeared.
"Where did they go?" Superman asked, having recovered from the Kryptonite. "Where's Phantom Girl and Brainy?"
"They got knocked into that portal thing with the girl." Saturn Girl answered.
"But where are they?" he pressed.
"How are we supposed to know?" Lighting Lad asked. "This is Briany's department."
"So what do we do? We have to find them!" He was sounding more panicked every second.
"We have to figure out how this thing did that." Saturn Girl answered calmly. Superman opened his mouth. "We're doing all we can right now. Don't worry about Phantom Girl or Brainiac 5. They can take care of themselves."
"I hope you're right." Superman whispered.
"Yes! I'm back! WOOHOO! Hear that Fate? I'm baaaaaack!"
Brainy sat up and rubbed the back of his head. 'I must have hit it on a rock when I landed.' He thought. 'Wait a sec… landed where?' He looked around. Strange trees and bushed surrounded him. "Huh?" he said.
Phantom Girl poked her head out of some bushes. "Brainy, where are we?"
"How I am supposed to know?" He replied, a slight edge to his voice. "We're not on Earth anymore at least."
"So what do we do?" she asked.
"Beat you again Fate! Keep trying! Maybe someday you'll win! Ha! Ha!" Laughter echoed around them.
"What is-" Phantom Girl started. But the girl from before zipped through the clearing where they sat.
Brainy extended one of his arms and grabbed her foot.
" Hey! Lego!" she yelled.
"Where did you take us?" demanded Phantom Girl.
"Take you?" she retorted. "You were in my way. It's your fault you're here." She looked at Brainy. "I'm glad to see you too Alex but unhand me!"
"Look." Brainy said. 'Man this is getting annoying.' "I'm not Alex. We've never met before."
"Say whatever you want Alex. I'm surprised you don't remember by now… but that aside–" she twisted her foot around backwards, straightened it out and yanked it out of Brainy's hand. "You guys need to get back to your home. So follow me!" She darted into the trees.
Phantom Girl and Brainiac 5 just stood there. Phantom Girl broke the stunned silence. "Well, that was weird. So do we follow her?"
The girl pocked her head back into the clearing. "Come one! We don't have all day! I've got people waiting for me!" They didn't move. "Ok then." She sighed, sounding annoyed. "Look, my name's Trish. I already got what I need from that disrupter and now you're in the 27th dimension. I promise not the hurt you but the animals in the forest don't. So you have two choices: Follow me to the city and get back home in one piece or get eaten by a dragtor (drag-tor) and get sent home in a matchbox."
Phantom Girl blinked. "Wha- What's a d- dragtor?"
Trish looked at the sky as if trying to remember something, "Oh... something between a gargoyle, a dragon, and a creepy monk on a bad day."
"Not much of a choice." Brainy said.
"So come on! Oh, what's your name?" Trish pointed at Phantom Girl.
"Phantom Girl."
"Huh. Weird name. Mind if I called you P. G.?" she didn't give her time to answer. "Good! Well daylights wasting! Come on PG! Alex!" Trish went back into the bushes. Phantom Girl followed her.
"MY NAME IS NOT ALEX!!!" Brainy yelled.
