At the McAuley household, Sammy was reading her comic books, but basically where Superman and/or Supergirl formed their own team. "Wow, this is so cool!" she said to herself in amazement.

"Samey, make me a sandwich right now!" Amy demanded.

"Make your own sandwich, Amy, I'm not a slave." Sammy rolled her eyes.

"Wait, what did you say?" Amy soon glared. "I'm your sister, you do what I say or else I'm gonna tell everyone how mean you are to me!"

"Go ahead," Sammy scoffed. "Nobody is gonna believe you except for your friends."

"And my friends are better than your friends." Amy said.

Sammy just rolled her eyes.

"What're you doing anyway?" Amy asked out of annoyance.

"Minding my own business." Sammy scoffed.

"Probably reading some stupid comic books again like the geek you are." Amy glared.

Sammy soon heard some screaming from her super-hearing and she looked over before narrowing her eyes, using her telescopic vision and saw a family trapped in a fire in their home. "Oh, no, those people are gonna die if that fire doesn't die out." she muttered to herself.

"What are you babbling about?" Amy continued to rant.

Sammy soon ran off to the bathroom.

"Hey! I am talking to you!" Amy glared. "SAMEY!"

Eventually, out the window flew Supergirl to save the day again.

"Don't ignore me, Samey! Fine, I'll make my own damn sandwich!" Amy glared before she walked away, mumbling under her breath.

Supergirl flew in the sky and then came towards the house and went inside to save the family, not minding the heat or the flames.

"It's okay, sweetie." The man soothed as he held a little girl.

"Look, it's Supergirl, we're saved!" The woman added.

"Don't worry, everything is gonna be fine." Supergirl soothed the family.

"Thank you." The little girl piped up softly.

"Come on, let's get you out of here." Supergirl smiled as she took the family outside of their house.

Everyone cheered for The Girl of Steel as she then took a deep breath and blew the fire out. The fire went out like a simple birthday candle and soon the fire was gone.

"Remember, never play with matches." Supergirl told the little girl with a smile.

Everyone then cheered again.

"Thank you, Supergirl, thank you, thank you." The man said.

"Eh, it was nothing." Supergirl smiled.

"How could we ever repay you?" The woman smiled back.

"Your safety is good enough for me," Supergirl replied. "Take care!"

"Aw, do you have to go?" The little girl pouted.

"I'm sorry, but a superhero life is a busy one." Supergirl soothed as she gently patted the girl on the head before flying off.

A car was pulled up to the McAuley house which was a surprise.

"Hey, Mom, there's someone out there on our driveway!" Amy's voice called out.

"I'll get it." Kara's voice replied.

"Hm? Who could that be?" Supergirl wondered before she flew back in the bathroom window, becoming Sammy again, and opened the door curiously.

"Oh, Clark, what a surprise!" Kara smiled once she saw her cousin at the door.

"Hi, Kara," Clark smiled back as he held something in a tiny pink blanket in his hand. "Is Samantha home?"

"Why, yes, she is," Kara replied. "Sammy, Sweetie! Clark is here!"

"Coming, Mom!" Sammy called back.

"Hello, Amanda." Clark greeted the mean twin.

"What makes Samey so special?" Amy rolled her eyes.

"Amy, be nice." Kara told her daughter.

"Yes, Mom." Amy huffed.

"Hi, Clark, what are you doing here?" Sammy smiled.

"Well, I have a little surprise for you..." Clark smiled as he held out the pink cloth. "I thought it would be a nice gift."

Sammy looked curious and Amy tried to take a look. Eventually, a white puppy was shown underneath the cloth who let out a quiet bark and looked up to Amy and Sammy with baby blue eyes and she seemed to have pink bows in her ears.

"Puppy!" Sammy smiled and held the puppy. "Oh!"

"I think she likes you." Kara cooed.

"I was sure she would." Clark chuckled.

The puppy soon looked at Amy and then growled at her, starting to bark at her.

"Get away from me!" Amy demanded. "That's it! I'm going to The Mall." she then said before she walked to the mall to do her own shopping.

"She's so cute," Sammy smiled as she held the puppy. "Where did you get her?"

"She's actually one of Krypto's puppies." Clark chuckled once they were alone.

"Krypto had puppies?" Sammy asked.

"He met a pretty husky named Eira." Clark smiled.

"She's so cute!" Sammy smiled back.

"Yes, she is." Clark smiled.

"Clark, I read some comics about you forming your own team." Sammy then said.

"You want to form a team of your own, don't you?" Clark smirked knowingly.

"Yeah, like The Cartoon Girls or Boys, The Powerpuff Girls, and even The Winx Club." Sammy listed.

"I know you can do it." Clark approved.

"What would you call it?" Kara asked Sammy while gently petting the puppy who looked very happy to be in the McAuley household.

"Hmm... I don't know for sure yet." Sammy replied.

"I'm sure you'll think of something." Clark smiled.

"Oh, such a sweet puppy~" Sammy cooed to the puppy in her arms. "I'll take good care of her, Clark, I promise."

"I know you will," Clark smiled to her. "I thought you could use your own little super dog."

"And I can form my own little team to go along with it." Sammy smiled back.

Kara and Clark both smiled to that. The puppy barked.

"Ooh, you need a name, girl..." Sammy cooed. "Hmm... What shall I name you?"

The puppy barked again.

"Ooh, you're as sweet as candy," Sammy smiled. "Ooh, that's it! I'll call you Candy, do you like that name?"

The puppy barked again.

"Alright then," Sammy smiled. "Puppy, your new name is now Candy."

The puppy then licked her face happily.

"Candy, we better form our own team to help save the city." Sammy told the puppy.

Candy barked in agreement.

"Does she have a collar?" Sammy asked.

"Yes, but you'll have to put her name in," Clark said, handing the collar. "I would've engraved it, but I figured you should name her since she's your new puppy."

Sammy smiled as she put Candy's name in the tag and then put the collar around the puppy's neck to become an official pet to the McAuley family. Candy barked and soon licked Sammy's face.

"Down, girl, down." Sammy giggled to that.

"She's so affectionate." Kara chuckled.

"Yeah, she reminds me of a lot of Krypto when I first met him." Clark agreed.

Sammy then went outside with Candy to play with her for a while.

"Does the puppy have powers like Krypto?" Kara asked her cousin.

"Yes, she does," Clark nodded. "Just a week ago, she lifted a truck up with her teeth."

"Really!" Kara replied. "Huh, now that's what I call puppy power. So, um, who exactly is Eira?"

"I don't know the full story yet, but she's a Siberian Husky from outer space." Clark replied.

"Think we'll get to see her?" Kara wondered.

"Someday." Clark shrugged.

Sammy laughed as she had a lot of fun with Candy so far.

"So, um, I'll take it that Amy still doesn't know that Sammy is Supergirl?" Clark guessed.

"Nope, and thank goodness for that," Kara replied. "Who knows what might happen if Amy ever found out?"

"Oh, trust me, it's hard to keep secrets from family... Especially to those you love..." Clark replied before softly blushing.

"Does Lois know who you are yet?" Kara wondered.

"Oh, yes, she does," Clark nodded. "But I told her not to tell anyone else otherwise she and a lot of others could be in grave danger."

"Well, at least she knows," Kara replied. "I heard about a time where she was just in love with Superman and you two were just friends."

"Oi... Don't remind me..." Clark said in memory.

"Okay, Candy, catch the Frisbee!" Sammy told her new dog.

Candy barked happily while jumping up and down.

"Fetch!" Sammy smiled as she tossed the Frisbee.

Candy soon ran and jumped in the air to catch the Frisbee in her mouth.

"Good girl!" Sammy smiled.

"Hey, Sammy." A voice said.

Sammy turned around and then smiled once she saw that it was Sky coming into her backyard. Candy barked and soon tackled Sky suddenly with a happy smile.

"Whoa! Hey! Killer Pup!" Sky laughed as she hugged the puppy.

"Oops, sorry about that, Sky." Sammy smiled sheepishly.

"It's no problem," Sky said as she was petting the puppy. "Where'd you get this killer pup from?"

"Clark gave her to me." Sammy replied.

"I see," Sky smiled. "What's her name?"

"I named her Candy because she's so sweet." Sammy smiled back.

"That's a nice name, so, what're you up to?" Sky asked.

"I've been thinking about forming a team like The Protectors." Sammy said.

"Our own team?" Sky asked.

"Yeah... Why not?" Sammy shrugged. "I just don't know what to call it."

"Um... The Hero League?" Sky suggested.

"Nah... Too plain." Sammy said.

"The Hero Squad?" Sky then suggested.

"Nope." Sammy said.

"The Guardians?" Sky tried once more.

"That's it!" Sammy gasped. "I like it!"

"Oh, uh, well, you're welcome." Sky smiled.

"Oh, thanks." Sammy smiled bashfully then.

"So, um, who do you think will be in The Guardians?" Sky asked her.

"Why, us, of course, and I know just the three other girls who can be on our team." Sammy smiled.

Cut to Pop's Diner where Sammy and Sky were there, talking to Justine, Jayna, and Alexandra as Candy was eating lunch from the dog bowl.

"So, let me get this straight: you two are forming your own hero team like The Protectors?" Alexandra asked.

"Yeah." Sky said.

"Sounds about right." Sammy added.

"Sounds like a major responsibility, do you think you can live up to keeping it intact?" Justine asked.

"How hard can it be?" Sammy shrugged.

"I guess we could try," Jayna replied. "I mean, if The Protectors can do it, so can we."

"Mind if we join too?" A voice asked.

The girls then looked over to see that Ellody and Katrina were coming over.

"We couldn't help but overhear that you were forming your own team." Ellody said.

"Of course, and you two can join," Sammy invited. "The more the merrier."

"Thank you!" Katrina replied.

"Can I join too?" A boy's voice asked.

The girls looked over and saw that it was Junior carrying a sword over his back.

"Who's the little pipsqueak?" Alexandra snorted.

"Alexandra, be nice, that's our friend: Dwayne Junior." Sky told the former mean girl.

"I can handle you if you want." Junior smirked as he drew out the sword.

"Don't poke your eye out, kid." Alexandra said, pushing the sword back, though to her surprise, it was real.

"This was handed down to me, my mother said so." Junior told her.

"You want to join us?" Sammy invited.

"Yeah, I've been training a lot with my own powers," Junior smiled before seeing Candy. "Ooh! Puppy!"

Candy looked up and smiled at Junior, barking.

"Look, Pumpkin, you've got a playmate." Junior smiled to his dog.

Pumpkin came out and soon ran up to Candy. Candy yipped to Pumpkin and he barked back to her.

"Welcome to the team, Junior." Sky smiled.

"So, what is this team called?" Jayna asked.

"The Guardians." Sammy informed.

"Not bad." Ellody commented.

"We'll hold a meeting soon." Sammy said.

"Sounds good," Jayna said. "Plus, it'll be nice to have another hero team in town."

"Especially for when the other heroes are really busy." Ellody added.

"This is going to be the best thing ever!" Justine beamed.

The future Guardians were very excited once they were set.

"So, where'd you get the sword?" Alexandra asked Junior.

"I told you, it was handed down from my mother," Junior said. "She said she got it from my aunt and uncle from her hometown. She said I would find out more on my birthday though."

"That sword looks familiar..." Ellody commented. "Looks like He-Man's sword."

"He's my uncle." Junior smiled.

"Sure." Alexandra said in disbelief.

"It's true!" Junior defended.

"Really now?" Alexandra muttered.

"Come to my birthday party and you'll find out." Junior nodded.

"Okay, I will." Alexandra replied.

"When's your birthday again?" Jayna asked.

"Near the end of October," Junior said. "You'll get invitations when it's about time. I just hope Angelica can make it."

"You know that we will." Sammy replied.

Candy and Pumpkin barked in agreement.

"Mom also said that she's never talking to Kevin or his parents ever again after I told her what they've done; in fact, she's kicked them out of the family, it was pretty funny to see." Junior then said.

"You guys should get a restraining order against them," Ellody said. "And Kevin's dad seemed so nice on the field trip to the Jawbreaker Factory."

"Eh, he just does that for his own popularity." Junior rolled his eyes.

"That's what Eddy's dad told us, and I believe it." Sky said.

"So, Guardians?" Sammy asked.

"Guardians." The others agreed and put their hands together like a real team.

Candy and Pumpkin then barked.

"Okay, you two can join as well." Sammy giggled to that.

Candy and Pumpkin smiled to each other as they felt included.

"Remember, don't tell anyone about this." Sky reminded the others.

"Right!" The Guardians replied.
