LEGION OF SUPERHEROES HEAD QUARTERS, TUESDAY, 6:55: A.M., PACIFIC TIME, DECEMBER 1, 3031
Brainiac 5 woke up, feeling tired and slightly irritated for no reason. "Ugh, what is it this time…COMPUTER!" Yes, Brainiac 5?" "Scan for diseases" he watched as a tiny sliding door in the wall opened to reveal a little red light bulb. It flashed a bright red light and started to scan him. He stood completely still as the light beam slid up and down his body, and when it was finished, the bulb turned off and the tiny little door closed shut. He heard a faint whirring, and the computer told him the results.
"According to biological scans, you have just begun the process of Coluan adolescence, or puberty."
"…What?"

Brainiac 5 walked into the kitchen and sat down, not saying a word to anyone. "Good morning Bra-" "Go away, Vi." Shrinking Violet looked in shock at Brainiac 5. He had never reacted that way when she said good morning to him. At least, not since that day…
"What's your problem?" said Lightning Lad, as he walked into the room in his usual cocky manner. Brainiac 5 turned around and gave him a death glare, making Lightning Lad regret ever saying a word to the cyborg. He quickly grabbed a cup of coffee and walked out of the room. Shrinking Violet decided that she was going to talk to the others about the way he was acting. "He never acts like this! I wonder what's wrong…" she thought as she went into the Legion of Superheroes lounge room. Superboy was sitting on the couch, reading a book about his future self, Lightning Lad was sitting in a chair nearby, staring at his coffee on the coffee table, Saturn Girl was looking worriedly at him whilst leaning against a far wall, and Timber Wolf was reading a cooking magazine. She didn't know where the others were-probably in their rooms; she decided that she would just talk to them today. "Um…guys?" everyone looked up at her. "I think there's something wrong with Brainy…"

"So he's been a huge grump all morning? That's it?" "Well, he never acts like this, especially not towards me for some reason…" "I think I better talk to him." Saturn Girl turned to Shrinking Violet. "Okay…" Saturn Girl tuned around and headed towards the kitchen, when Lightning Lad suddenly spoke "He looked like he was about to kill me."
"What?" Saturn Girl turned around to face him. "I asked him what his problem was when I heard him talk to Vi…he looked like he was about to rip me to shreds." Saturn Girl looked at Lightning Lad in shock; he was staring blankly at the floor. "Lightning Lad looks scared to death; is it really that bad?" "Well, I'll try and see what's wrong…" she turned around and headed into the kitchen. He was still sitting there, motionless. "Brainy? Are you-" he turned around to face her, with the same deadly look that had frightened Lightning Lad so badly. "What?" "Are you ok? You seem-" "I'm fine, now leave me ALONE!" he shrieked, getting up and knocking the table over. He stormed out of the room as if he had just lost a trillion-dollar contest. She tried to read his mind, but she found nothing…nothing understandable anyways. It was all just a confusing mess of emotions. "Wait a second-I've seen this before…but…it's not possible for Brainy…
…is it?"
