-Lady Protecta out!

"I'm glad that Cham and his little sister, Clyista made it out ok, Vi. I just hope Cham will take more responsibility with his siblings. Cly after all is a mischievous one, like you. You always played pranks on the Legionnaires. I should know, I was mostly your victim. Remember when you put a salsa volcano in my lab? I walk in and what happens? Boom. I find myself covered in dip and you howling with laughter as you come out from behind the scanners. Funny. Oh well it tasted good. But the scanners stopped working for 24 hours. Your fault. Well I see you soon, Vi.

-Brainy"

It had been a week since Brainy had left the Legion. Her heart was still hard as stone but at least they could keep in touch. The 14-year-old girl looked at the picture of her looking all a mess and Brainy smirking at her.

She remembered it was when Superman had found Karate kid and requited him. Everyone was stunned when they heard that Clark got his butt kicked by a teenaged boy with no powers. Yet all of older members doubted that he could be any help.


A doomed Shrinking Violet sat in the conference room, becoming drowsy from listening to Cos yakking on about Grimbor. The only thing that caught her attention was that the video showed of Grimbor giving a peace sign. Funny. She looked at Cham who sat in front.

"Psst Cham, are you as bored as I am," she whispered.

"Duh, all this blah blah is giving me a headache. I want to get out of here. I had enough of hear about Grimbor and the whatever he stole thingy."

"You're not the only one."

Superman looked at them and gave a be-quiet look. He turned around. Vi let her head fall to her desk. The others looked at her. Ok that hurt. Note to self; don't call attention to yourself by banging your head on the desk, she thought. She gave a nervous smile.

"Oops sorry."

At the end of the meeting, she was just about ready to run to her room to get her guitar and tune it up when Cosmic Boy and Lightning Lad stopped her.

"Shrinking Violet, next meeting try to stay awake, please," Cos gave her a serious look and turned his back.

"Also you need to re-wire some of the circuits in sector 23 of the cruiser sometime."

Was it always her? She always had to do something in the cruiser while Cham, Brainy, and everyone else got to go on missions. Oh well, she'll get it done to night.

She opened the door to find a screaming Cham.

"IT'S ANNOYING!" He yelled at Superman.

Superman and Vi glanced at each other. "I…don't want to know," she said, shrugging her shoulders as she walked off.


She took out her black guitar with red trim and a purple flower. The good old Rosetta Stones' lead guitar, the one that she rocked the crowd with when she would do her solos. Man, that was some good times. But that was when she was 12 years old. Didn't really matter now.

She needed some tools the fix up the tuners and the strings. But what she really wanted was for her guitar to have a twist to it's sound. She stood before Brainy's lab. Maybe he would lend her some. The door was unlocked for some odd reason; maybe he was inside just doing something as usual.


"Brainy?" she called. Vi looked around, but there was no sign of the Coluan anywhere. The Imskan decided that it wouldn't hurt to just take a few tools. She would just leave a note for him.

She walked up to his toolbox and opened it. She took out a screwdriver.

"What are you doing?"

She screamed and lost her balance. Something wrapped itself around her waist and caught her before she could reach the ground. She looked up and to her surprise it was Brainy… on the ceiling.

"Why are you on the ceiling?"

"Why are you in my lab?"

"That's not an answer."

"Neither is yours."

He lowered himself to the floor and put Vi down.

"You really shouldn't be barging in someone's lab."

"Yeah well… I did look to see if you were there."

Brainy glanced at the guitar case on Vic's back. She put it down on the table in front of him. He looked at her then at the beat up black guitar on his table. Vi just wished that he would hurry up and talk now. She had places to go and not enough time to get there.

"So is this why you're here, eh?" he sighed.

"Yup. The guitar needs a tune up. That's why I need to barrow some of your tools-"

"Sorry no, I can't trust anyone with my tools after what Garth did with them, but I'll tune it up for you. I do owe you big time from our last mission."

Violet blinked and slowly nodded. She guessed that that would save her some time. Besides she needed to get to those wires in sector 23.

Suddenly a loud noise came from the speakers. Vi and Brainy covered their ears and groaned. The noise sounded like singing, horrible singing. Vi pressed the Com box button.

"PG did you hit the microphone again? Dream Girl; Are you and PG trying to sing in a minor in the Rosetta Stones' hit song, Alone again? We can hear you guys! "

A screen popped up showing DG and PG's faces. They looked half embarrassed by their singing.

"Oops, we'll turn it down and turn the mic off," Dream Girl said with a nervous laugh.

When the screen vanished, Brainy turned to the Imskan.

"You seem to know a lot about the Rosetta Stones, Vi," he said.

"I was their lead singer and guitar player. Until I felt I was need to do something bigger. Then my planet sent me to Earth to represent them in the Legion."

"Oh. Hey Violet?" Brainy said looking down at the guitar.

"What?"

"What's you're real name?"

One of Vi's eyebrows arched up at him.

"Why do you keep asking me questions, aren't you like the smartest person in this galaxy?"

"You're…. Different...from the other members. I mean I want to get to know who you are better. I'm curious about you, that's all, Vi. I promise not to tell anyone. I'll tell you my name if you tell me yours. Sound good?" Brainy gave her a smile she had never seen before…ever. It was like a smile of trust between friends. A smile that had assured her that whatever secrets she kept would not be told to anyone but him. A smile she had not seen in so long.

"Ok on the count of three, we both say our real names. 1…2…3."

"Querl Dox."

"Salu Digsby."

They stared at each other for a moment in silence, both trying to register the other's name. A nail roiled off the table and the two 14 year olds burst out laughing.

"Salu …that's an odd name," chuckled Brainy.

"Yea… I guess …but so is Querl!" Vi elbowed him. She began to walk off. " Well I gotta get a move on before Mr.-Keep –everything- in-line-and-boss-everyone-around starts to nag about those wires. Ugh. Some things never change, right?"

"Right."

Brainy watched as Violet waved and walked out of the room.


"That's the last one. Geez, that took awhile," Vi sighed, stretching. Ten thousand wires that needed re-wiring plus a malfunctioning circuit and top that off with a reprogramming for the electric toaster that kept spitting out files and crackers and sang random rhyming songs that drove her nuts. Wow. She can defiantly rant about the last one to Cosmic Boy. The toaster was screwed.

A screen showed up and Superman had announced that she was to be at attention as Karate Kid was sworn in. Vi felt happy for him, he had come along way. She looked at Cham. The Durlan looked never looked more pleased to see his new best friend who had no powers become a Legionnaire.


The next day, Shrinking Violet yawned as she walked into the hanger. Oh man, she so did not want to clean the mini cruiser. Brainy, Cham, and Karate Kid greeted her as she entered.

"So we're all here…"Karate Kid said.

"Yea. Cosmic Boy wanted the four youngest members to do the toughest job, yippee," Cham groaned as he filled up a large tub of water.

"So let me guess, you going to start off with the windshield wipers, huh?" Brainy said to the shorter girl next to him.

"Yea, um Brainy, no offense or anything but you make the worst jokes. And also, make another funny comment and I'll shove another lollipop or another jawbreaker in your mouth." She gave him a sly smile. She flew up to the roof to start there.

"Careful what you say around her, KK, she bites," Cham said, rolling his eyes.

"I heard that." Vi looked down at them. The three boys turned to hide their snickers from her. She sighed and shook her head.

Suddenly she heard a weird muffled sound from inside the small ship. She got up from her spot and strode to the front of the ship. With each step she took, the sound grew less and less distorted. It sounded like a child's version of an airplane taking off.

"Hey guys, um I think there's something in the mini cruiser," she called.

Brainy looked at his scanners. "She's right. My scanners indicate something living is inside the cruiser, we'll enter it with caution though."


They entered inside the Bridge. It seemed as if something was in here…and was still in here. They could hear loud munching coming from the driver's seat. It turned and there sitting was…a Durlan that looked like Cham, only tinier with the Durlan little leaguer cap on.

"Reep!" he yelled as ran up to Cham.

"Jordan? Squirt, what are you doing here?" Cham said as he gave him a noogie.

"Aw, look guys. A mini Chameleon Boy," Vi giggled with a snort to follow.

Jordan turned and looked at the other three standing before him.

"Guys this is my little brother, Jordan. Jor, this is Brainiac5, Shrinking Violet, and Karate Kid." Cham put his hand on the kid's shoulder.

"Dad said that you knew I was coming, Reep," Jordan said with a grin, "Don't you remember? The Durlan little leaguers are playing against Mar's all stars this Saturday? Aren't you going to see me hit a home run?"

"Oh my gosh, I totally forgot that you're stay with us."

"He's staying with us?" Brainy gulped.

"Brainy!" Vi shoved a mini chocolate bar into his mouth to shut him up. Brainy began to protest but all that came out was muffled words. Jordan giggled. "That's funny!" he squeaked. Brainy blushed.

"She does that all the time to us. Mostly him since he makes up some bad jokes," Cham sighed, "Anyways, you should get settled in, squirt. The four of us need to clean up this place. Cosmic Boy's orders."

"Can I help?" the 7 year old asked.

"Sure. You can help Violet out with fixing the engine. You just hand her the tools, ok?"

"Got it!"


Violet unscrewed the lid and peered inside. Gosh what a mess! Yuck! Oil stained the engine and there was built up of oil inside. "Wrench!" She called. Jordan rummaged through the toolbox and found a 2.300 wrench.

"Here."

Vi took it from him and began to screw in the last bolt till suddenly…

"GAH!" Violet screamed as smoke came out of the bottom of the engine. The boys raced over and pulled her out as she coughed hysterically. She was covered from head to toe with smudges of oil. Her black hair was in disarray.

"You ok, Vi?" Karate Kid asked.

"Yea…ack…I'm…ack…ok…"

"Seems as if the engine's system must be on the fritz again," Cham said, looking up at the smoke.

The boys looked at her and tried not to laugh at her. She looked at herself.

"Alright go on and laugh all ready. I must admit, I do look like a dork, don't I?" She gave a sheepish smile and shrugged her shoulders.

"Yes!" Brainy said, grinning.

"This so is a picture! Smile!" Cham yelled, taking out Clark's camera. Before the two could realize what was going on, the camera flashed.

"You stole that out of Superman's room, didn't you?" Karate Kid shook his head.

"Yea so, he never uses the old thing anyways."


On Saturday, most of Legion took the day off and went to see Cham's little brother at his championship game with R.J Brande, Cham's father. Jordan had hit 3 home runs and had struck out 9 players. His team had won 9-4. No one was prouder than Mr.Brande. Vi kept throwing popcorn at Brainy and the two of them had started a popcorn fight amongst the Legion and was soon joined in by Jordan and his teammates.


"Hey Shrinking Violet, you want to go shopping with us girls?" Dawnstar asked. The other girls peek their heads inside.

"Um…no. Guys, I'm not a shop addict. Besides I need to go fix up Computo. It's on the fritz again!" Vi lied about the last one. She hated shopping. She wouldn't be caught dead buying a new fake leather pair of shoes any day.

"You are sooooo coming with us whether you like it or not, Violet. You can't keep on hiding in your room forever! And plus you need new clothes" Triplicate girl said. Her purple and orange selves dragged Vi off her bed. The other girls giggled.

"Guys let me go! Grrr! My old clothes suit me fine!" Salu protested. Oh well at least she tell Brainy about her torturing trip to the mall. Boy, would he get a kick out of that.
