Yippie!

-Ladyprotecta out!


"It was good that you rushed her back to the hospital, another few hours and she could have slipped into a coma again," said the doctor as he examined an X-ray of Violet's head. The Legion had brought her to hospital at the speed of light. The called up Auntie Ashley and Uncle Jorge and alerted Vi's condition. Brianna cried all the way there. She was so upset about her son's shut down. Yet no matter how the Legion told her to stay put, she refused to stay behind so she went with them and left Obi and Bouncing Boy in charge of Brainy's battered up body. She said that she felt that it was her programming to thank Vi for everything.

"Will she lose her memory again?" Phantom Girl asked. The doctor shook his head.

"The amnesia has miraculously worn off. She seems very well healthy despite some of her minor injuries though she hasn't woken up."

"Sir, the patient is awaking." Said the nurse.

"M-may we see our niece?" asked Auntie Ashley.

"Yes go on ahead."


The couple walked in and saw their niece who they had raised since she was only six years old, all battered up from her battle. Ashley trembled in tears. It hurt to know that her brother in law's daughter had risked her life to save her friends and regain her memories. She didn't want to tell her daughter, Butterfly, because that would hurt her ever-loving soul if Vi was hurt. Instead of continuing her life as a sensational rockstar that dominated the charts at least 50 times and rock out with Butterfly, who played the piano, Violet had felt that she was called for something bigger. So two years ago she had thrown away the life of fame and fortune after she saved a train with her Imskan powers. She then went to the Legion of Superheroes and was accepted in after facing off with her later best friend, Brainy. The two were almost inseparable. Always, when he was in his lab, she was always at his side.

"Auntie Ash? Uncle Jorge?" Vi opened her eyed slowly.

"Oh my lord, I thought we lost you!" cried Ashley. She hugged her niece.

"Where am I, auntie?"

"In the hospital, sweet rock candy heart," sighed Uncle Jorge.

"What about Brainy?"

"He is still off line."

"Oh. I-I have to get back to the lab. I have to reboot him now. I need to find his files. I have to fix him. I- ahhhh!" she struggled to sit up but fell back.

"Oh no you best rest. Besides, That nice lady Miss- I mean Officer Dox is here to talk to you."

"Officer?" Vi asked weakly. Her relatives didn't respond and left the room. Brianna came in wearing a navy, red and sliver science police uniform. She had a clip on tie, a navy blue cap on her head that contrasted on her blonde hair and a shiny badge on her shirt.

"Hi, Violet."

"Miss- I mean Officer Dox, shouldn't you be with your son?"

"Yes, but I wanted to thank you and him…for everything."

"Thank me?"

"Yes. You and my son have truly turned my life around. You see your courage to fight me and his choice to live with humans had opened a new world for me. You two fight to save lives; I just harmed everyone for revenge against my son's escape. Now I want to help keep justice alive but I could not except being in the Legion. I told Superman this when I turned down the offer. That is your job. I decided to join the science police and was recruited instantly. They seem pretty happy to have Coluan on the force. So now they have a Coluan in the Legion and a Coluan in the science police."

"That's so cool. I promise to get Brainy working again."

Officer Dox smiled and placed a bouquet of flowers into her vase and left the room. Suddenly Tinya burst into the room.

"OMG, OMG! You're ok!" she screamed as she hugged Vi, tightly.

"Uh PG it's bad enough our Violet is suffering a blow from the head and wounds so don't make it worse," said Cham. The girls rolled their eyes.

"So how are you doing, Violet?" asked Superman.

"Fine. But I need to help Brainy. I need to."

"You'll be released tonight. So stop panicking, V," said Cosmic Boy, who joined them. Violet glared at him.

"Never call me that, Rokk," she snarled. Garth snickered.

"Someone get a collar, this girl's bite is worse as her bark," he joked.

"Garth!" everyone else yelled.


When Vi returned to the Headquarters she got straight down to work. She connected Brainy's body to Computo.

"Computo, please show injuries of subject."

"Subject's injuries contain at the right leg, a short circuited right and left arm. Critical injuries at the head and chest. Chest malfunctioning, heart circuits must need rewiring. Chip files needed to reboot subject."

Vi knew that she had her hands full, but she wouldn't give in. She need find out where those backup files were. She quickly got out Brainy's tools and began to operate. Minutes turned into hours and hours turned into days.

Finally Clark came in. He was worried about Vi.

"Hey Salu, you need any help?" he asked. She had been in the lab for at least three days. And now she was still working on Brainy's arm.

"I'm fine, Clark."

"You sure?"

"Yes Superman."

Clark began to walk out but turned to examine her condition. She just came out of the hospital and she was still injured. But she ignored all of this and kept on going. She wanted to help Brainy no matter what. Her face showed tiredness. Her eye that wasn't covered up by her bangs had bags under her eyes. Every once and a while she would yawn real loud and would drowse off. She hooked herself up to a bucket of water that was dumped on her if she fell asleep.


"Done…" she whispered to herself. She stared at Brainy's body. It looked good as new except for one thing… he was still off line.

"What did you mean Brainy?" Violet asked. She closed her eyes and pictured herself months ago when her and Brainy weren't well acquainted and Brainy was judging her abilities. She had shown that she was just as smart as him and had slowly earned his respect and his well-valued friendship.

She figured that she would check his quarters. She remembered that she was sometimes allowed into his room for certain things such as tools and parts. She began to search his room from top to bottom remembering to put things back were she found them. She knew very well that Brainy would rant if something was out of place.

Her feet hurt so much. She searched every inch of his room. Nothing…nothing came up. No chip, no hidden files, no nothing. Violet sighed and sat down in his docking station chair. There was no hope now. She had failed him. She swung her feet up onto the arm of the chair. She decided that a nap would help her devastated defeat. She had lost the battle and now the war. Or so she thought.


In the back of her eyelids she could see a tiny light in the distance. Voices were calling out to her, voices of those whom she had loved with all of her heart and soul. All seemed to say that she should never give up. A familiar quiet but bold voice had singled itself out amongst the voices. It was Brainy's.

Her eyes flew open to millions of screens that appeared in front of her and continued to multiply. She quickly sat up and read one of the screens. It was a recollecting memory of the Legion's mission to save Abel, the kid who would one day create skin that would aid Imperix.

Violet held her breath as she read each and every screen. This was it! Brainy's files… they were stored in his docking chair, of course! Violet quickly uploaded the files onto Computo. She then ran back to the lab. She was so excited. She was also very, very, very tired. She quickly assembled the wires, hooking Brainy up to Computo.

"Computo…up..load…Brainiac5's…files," she yawned. Her eyes felt heavy and sleep slowly dragged her down. Violet laid her head down. She did not notice two magenta eyes watching her sleep nor the touch of a warm metal hand stroking her hair. He knew she was weary and tired so he slipped off the table, nearly losing his balance. He placed her one the table and put a blanket over her body.

"Sleep tight, Vi."


Violet opened her eyes. How long how has she been asleep? She pulled the blanket off of her. How did she get up on to the table? Where was Brainy's body? The door opened behind her.

"Morning Vi. Glad to see your up. You've been asleep for two days," said a familiar voice.

She has… been asleep for …TWO DAYS?

Vi turned around and gasped. No way!

"Brainy!" she cried. She leaped off the table and pounced on him, knocking him off his feet.

"Ok, what is with you?"

"Nothing! But I never gave up!"

Brainy rolled his eyes and shook his head. Same old Violet: happy, sweet, cute, smart, and hyper.


Brainy decided to take Vi, Jordan, and Obi out for a stroll around the city. That was odd. Brainy hardly went out for fun stuff except for once where he had a panic attack.

"I want some ice cream!" said Jordan.

"Me too!" yelled Obi.

"I'm up for that. I'll pay," giggled Violet.

"I sit this one out," murmured Brainy.

Violet came back with three ice cream cones. Strawberry for Obi, French Vanilla for Jor, and Chocoberry for her. Brainy made a face at her choice.

"What's wrong, Boy Genius?" she sighed.

"What is that?" he demanded.

"A Chocoberry, my favorite flavor."

"Sounds gross."

"Want some?"

"No."

"Come on. One taste."

"No."

"Picky eater. Here!" She shoved it in his face. The cone fell down leaving Brainy's face dripping with ice cream.

"HEY!"

Jordan and Obi stared then burst out laughing. Brainy blushed then licked his lips.

"Mmmmmm, this is good!" he said smiling as Violet handed him a napkin.

"Good then you owe me another ice cream."


As Brainy and Violet finished their ice cream, the group headed off the park. Vi looked at all the pretty flowers around her. It had been awhile since she went out. The last time she went out, a horde of Rosetta Stone fans chased her.

"OMG! Is that Salu Digsby?" screamed a girl. Others turned to look at the girl.

Vi froze in her spot. "Here we go again," she thought as she gulped. Hordes of fans ran up to her. Brainy, Obi and Jordan watched with smiles on their faces as the former rockstar superhero signed autographs. She gave them a pitiful look.


Brainy and Violet watched as Jordan chased Oblinara around the playground. The two youngsters giggled and laughed.

"It good to see your old self again, Violet." Brainy said turning towards her. Violet giggled and snorted.

"It's good to feel to be myself again. But…that adventure changed me. I mean I feel a bit more sensitive now."

"Things like that happen. You'll get use it."

"Yeah I guess. How are you doing with that um….programming inside-never mind! Sorry Brainy, I didn't want to be rude or anything."

Brainy was silent. Then he spoke.

"Hey, it's ok. I'm trying to deal with it right now but it's hard. The more I try to ignore it, the more it hurts. I don't want to be like him. Mom has the same programming but she passed it. Me, oh it will happen to me, I just know it. He haunts me in my sleep and I-I don't know. I'm just afraid. It would be soon before I go rouge again. I just know it."

Vi took his hand and looked him in the eye. "Hey, no matter what happens, I'll be there for you, I promise. Even if you do hurt me, our friendship will always be as solid as a rock. You can always come to me if you have that feeling again, ok?"

"Ok. Thanks, Shrinking Violet…for everything."

"No prob," Vi grinned, "Hmmmm, I feel that today is suppose to be a special day, but I forgot what…"

Brainy's ring began to beep.

"Hey Vi, can you go and herd the kids, I'll be right back."

"K, Brainy. Yo! Guys, time to come back!"

Brainy ran into the shad of the trees.

"Brainy, you guys can comeback now," said Superman.

"Thanks Clark, is the guest of honor there?"

"Yup."

"We'll be right there then."


"Hey, Vi. We have a surprise for you," said Jordan with a playful smile as they returned to the Legion HQ.

"What?"

"We're not telling," Obi giggled.

"Oh come on, give me a hint."

Brainy said nothing and placed a bandana round her eyes.

"No peeking," he, Obi, and Jordan said in unison.

"Shoot!" Vi pouted. Brainy took her arm and led her inside.

"Are we there yet?" she asked. She had asked that for the millionth time.

"No."

"Now?"

"No, Vi."

"Grrrrrrrr." She didn't like to be kept waiting. She kept bumping into stuff and the bandana was stuffy.

"Now we're here." Brainy's voice broke her thoughts.

Violet took off the bandana.

"SURPISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"

All of the Legionnaires and her love ones stood there in the brightly decorated lounge. Violet's mouth hung open. She then covered it up, trying to stiffen her giggles.

"I knew that it was a special day. I just can't believe it. It was my birthday!" she said, laughing.

"Vi forgot a shard!" Jordan yelled as he elbowed Brainy. Brainy just stood looking at his best friend's wide smile. It was her best one he had seen. Violet kissed his cheek. He blushed as the boys raise their eyebrows and the girls giggled. "Thanks," Violet whispered, "this is the coolest birthday ever." Brainy nodded as he gave his mother a knock-it-off look. Officer Dox had a smug look on her face.

"Happy Birthday, Cousin Violet!" said a girl's voice with a British accent.

Violet turned around and eyes went wide. A girl with 4 pigtails of blue hair with orange highlights stood behind her.

"Ello mate!"

" COUSIN BUTTERFLY!" she cried. She hadn't seen her cousin and fellow band member in so long.

"My. Seems as if I don't recognize you. You look smashing with that dashing new haircut."

"Thanks. I love yours too."

"Pretty cool place, mate. Nice people too. I met them all."

"Butter, when did you come?"

"Two days ago. I arrived on a Star Ship as soon as I got word of what happened to you, girl. I had to fight off a stamped of crazy fans and paparazzi. Feeling better, are we now?"

"Yep!"

Butterfly leaned in and eyed Brainy.

"Nice catch, mate. A good dashing young man, what, what? Does he have a brother?" she whispered.

"Butter! He's not my boyfriend! We're just pals!" hissed Vi, blushing.

"Ah. Are you going to date him?"

"No."

"Oh, come on. He's practically you knight in shining armor, He saved your butt millions of times. Besides, his mum agrees with me."

"Oh Butterfly!"

"Are we going to have cake or what?" yelled Kell. Phantom Girl glared at him while her brother kicked his shin.

"Shut up, Kell!" they yelled.

"What's all the commotion?" asked Timber Wolf as he carried in a four-layer cake with lilac colored frosting and lime green candles with sparklers. Vi gasped and smiled as that special song sang into her ears.


"Finally! Now we can eat cake," Kell said with a sigh. He was eager to have a piece.

"Is he always like this?" asked Butterfly.

"Yes!" said the others looking at Kell-El as he shoved down a piece.

"He basically doesn't know the golden rule," sighed Cham.

"What?" Kell asked with cake in his mouth.

"EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!" screamed Clyista. Her brother began snicker.

"Took the words right out of our mouths, sis," Cham laughed.

"Hey Violet, why don't you play us a song," said Karate Kid.

"Um…" Vi blushed.

"Come on, cousin, for old time sake! It'll be fun!" begged Butterfly as she took out her electric piano and tossed Vi's black guitar to her.

"Ok, why not?" Violet turned on her speakers and tuned up her guitar. She let out a strum.

"1-2-3-4!" she cried into the mic and soon her amazing voice filled the room and Butterfly's voice joined in. Inside of her, she knew that another shard of a memory was being created in the making.

But this song was for the future, for the adventures and the people she would meet along the way, especially two young children that would enter her heart. In the night sky there was a sliver lining that connected them.


Another planet, a curious seven-year-old girl who had just recently caused trouble with her father's machine stared into the same night sky with her twin brother.

"Whatcha look'n at sis?"

"Oh nothing. Hey, bro. Do you ever get the feeling that someone is waiting for us?"

"Yea, why?"

"I don't know. I just got that feeling. Plus I hear her song, do you?"

"Yea but I guess it's just the breeze."

"Stupid! Is not! She and some other boy are singing, I just know it!"

"Really? Hmmmmm. I guess we'll find them one day."

But that was another story.
