A/N: Sorry about the lack of chapters in the last month. I have been involved into real life issues, dealing mostly with my job and my member ship of the navy. I also hit a major brick wall with my creativity and couldn't get pass a certain part of this chapter. If you would like me to rewrite the fanfiction into first person, I will do it. Most likely it would be in Supergirl's point of view only. But anyway, lets get into this chapter. Sorry for the short chapter, they will get longer later.

If you have any questions, put it in your review and I will answer it with the next chapter. Thanks so much!

I do not own the Legion. They belong to DC and WB. I just borrowed the characters and twisted them around for my own amusment. Please do not sue.

Chapter Three

Legion HQ, Metropolis

Saturn Girl watched her fellow founders with a mixture of thankfulness and cryptic other emotion on her face. Despite her open mindedness and ability as a telepath, she was hard to read. She always kept her emotions cool and calm, only showing bits of her motherly side when the need arises. For a moment or two she wondered when she would need it again, but knew that some day it would be needed again.

She shut her eyes before she spoke, careful consideration given to her words. "So, what did you think of her first mission? Supergirl's I mean."

Cosmic Boy turned to her and nodded his head. Hand went to ruffle his normally neat black hair and he seemed in good spirits. Lighting Lad nodded as well, and was the first to speak. "I think it actually went pretty well. If she hadn't shown up when she did we would have been in a lot more trouble than we were. She taught the Persuader not to mess with her."

"But I do have some concern. Brainiac Five might have been correct about her nativity. I don't want her to get herself into trouble down the road because she sees the good in everyone."

"Then we keep a closer eye on her," Lighting Lad said, waving his hand towards each of them. "We make sure she doesn't do anything reckless."

"I don't know if that will be enough," Cos said, shaking his head before he turned towards the monitors and nodded. "But it will have to do. There is also something else I need to talk to you two about."

Legion HQ Training Room, Metropolis

Triplicate Girl was fast on her feet, Supergirl was starting to realize. While she wasn't as fast as she could be she was fast in a different way than her. She was able to split and reform her body between her three forms and single form, dodging some of her attacks before she could even finish. She moved almost like water around her, so graceful and almost elegant. But she was wild, and dangerous like the beast parts of her costume suggested.

"You are pretty good," she said, moving her arms in front of her as Supergirl attempted to punch but was grabbed by four hands as Trip split. She used the force of her attack to throw her body towards the wall and Supergirl only managed to stop herself. But Trip was on her again, all three of her.

"But not nearly as good as I am."

Triplicate Girl went to kick as her bodies formed into one, but Supergirl was ready. She grabbed a hold of her leg and threw her back, flying towards her before she had a chance to move away and landed a held back punch. Trip gasped but there was a smile on her face.

"That should be enough for today," Kara said as she held out a hand and helped Trip up. As they cooled down with some water and stretching, her fellow Legionnaire decided to fill her in what exactly would happen when she joined.

"When you get ready to join, the Founders will ask you a bunch of questions. They will ask you if you are ready, if you will serve the people and not yourself."

Trip was drinking from her water bottle and watching Supergirl with her mixed matched eyes. There was something about her that was unsettling. It was almost as if she were a piece of meat and Triplicate Girl was a hungry jungle cat. It unsettled her.

"They will ask you to follow the Legion Code above everything else. Put the Legion before yourself. I think you will do well in the Legion."

Kara only felt a strange hollowness fall over her. When they came to Earth and was adopted by her new family, they had taught her many things. They told her that no matter what she should follow her own heart. She had to remember that no matter what, and no that it would always led her right.

But from the way Triplicate Girl was talking, she would have to give up a lot of freedom in order to join. But why did they ask so much? Wasn't it enough that they agreed to join and possibly give up your life for it?

She took a shower and washed off the grime, but not the bad feelings. The more she thought about it, the more lonely and isolated she felt. She had noticed it on her fast day here. The coldness of the Founders, the other Legionaries. Especially Brainiac Five.

The rumors she had heard about the Legion before she had been contacted by Saturn Girl seemed to aiding up. But it was too late to go back and say that she didn't want to be apart of the Legion anymore. She was a girl of her word.

She had to leave the HQ for at least a little bit, enough to clear her mind and get it back on track. As she went outside she was once again taken aback by the beautiful sights of Metropolis. It was beautiful and reminded her so much of home. Large glass and steel buildings rose into the sunlight and glittered like rare jewels. People walked down the streets and fast moving hover cars zoomed by.

She made her way towards the street and watched the people past. Most of the people who lived in Metropolis knew of her but since she didn't do much Superhero work here, they tended to ignore her. The Legion protected Metropolis anyway, so she had no need to help out.

She watched the people pass before she heard a voice behind her. As she turned around she saw a girl running towards her waving her hand. Her hair was black with a white streak in her hair and bright green eyes. She wore a bright red suit with faintly Kryptonaian design in the yellow markings. She wore a large s-shield earrings, and faint makeup on her face. She stopped in front of her and grinned.

"Oh, Supergirl! I heard that you were joining the Legion and I had to see if it was true. I am your biggest fan!"

"Oh..." Supergirl felt really off put. She knew she had fans. She met them before in Smallville and each and everyone one of them said that they were her biggest fan. Blinking in confusion she nodded.

"You don't look like your doing so well," she said, picking up on her uneasiness. "You want to talk?"

Supergirl wasn't sure why she was even thinking about it. This girl -she didn't even know her name- was a fan. She wasn't exactly someone she could just go telling her secrets to. But she felt comfortable around her and she felt like she could trust her.

"Oh, and I'm Lori."

"Kara."

"Since I know you might not want to get too private... But how's the Legion?"

"The Legion is cold actually. Everyone is so cold and professional. Its not at all like what I thought it would be."

"Nothing ever is." Lori pointed towards a bench and they walked over and sat down. She put her hands together and nodded. "But the Legion will get better. Your in it. Of course it will. You are amazing."

Kara blushed. "Thanks, but I am not that amazing."

"Of course you are. You are exactly what the Legion need now. The Legion is turning dark and you are exactly what they need."

"Do you really think so?"

"Of course I do. Your amazing! And I am sorry to gush but I can't help it. I'm such a fangirl." Lori grinned and waved a hand, waving away her fangirl comment. "All I know is that with a bit of work you can make the Legion better. Isn't that what you think the Founders invited you in for?"

Kara thought about it, and she found herself remembering what Cos had told her when she first joined. He wanted her to help them remember what the Legion use to be. Why hadn't she remembered that sooner? Lori's faith in her reminded her of that, and also helped her lighten her mood.

"Your right, and I shouldn't have doubted myself. You should be a motivational speaker."

"Oh, I just wanted to make you feel better." She grinned at her and then said in a softer voice, "I just wanted to be a Legionnaire. I'm a spell caster."

"You would make a great Legionaries," Kara told her. Then she got up and looked towards the HQ before she turned back to Lori. "Thanks for the talk Lori. I should get back, I hope we talk again."

"I'm sure we will. Talk to you later Kara."

Supergirl made her way towards the HQ, and as she made her way inside she felt better. Maybe she just needed someone outside the Legion to talk to. She turned a corner and her good mood nearly vanished.

Brainiac Five stood in front of her, a sour look on his other wise hansom face. His blue eyes were filled with such venom that she wondered how he kept it all inside. He was wearing his purple and black uniform and had his PDA in his hand. It took a few moments for him to say anything but when he did, she wished he hadn't.

"You should go back to Smallville and leave the Legion to me."

"Its not your Legion. Cosmic Boy is the Leader."

"For now, but not forever." He grinned slightly, twisting his face more. "The others will realize that I am supior to all of them."

Your xenopobia is wrong. You would be better without it."

"Its only wrong because you are not smart enough to understand the logic of it."

The absurdity of it made Supergirl laugh. "That's great Brainy, just keep trying to justify that."

Then it hit her. Brainy. It was a perfect nickname. Grinning at him, she leaned a little closer towards him and looked him in the eye. "Brainy works. I think I'll call you that for now on."

Brainy looked like he wanted to slap her, but he held himself back and only said, "I don't have time for this," before he moved around her and disappeared down the hall. She waved bye to him and made her way to her room. She needed time to herself. Some time to think on her own about everything that happened. Everything that she needed to do.

She had lots of stuff to think about.
