I've haven't got the heart to leave just yet.
Brainy started packing his stuff when a faint knock occurred at the door. He sighed.
"Come in," Brainy huffed.
The door opened and Cham, Shrinking Violet, Timber wolf, Phantom girl and (OC) Mia walked in.
"What do you want?" Brainy asked still packing his stuff.
"Brainy, this is not right. No-one is mad at you of what you have done. Everyone has badness implanted in them somewhere," Shrinking Violet explained.
"I know, why are you here though? Surely you should be mad at me," Brainy sighed.
"That's just it; Brainy we're not mad at you. No-one is mad at you, that's what you have got wrong," Mia said.
"But I-," Brainy stuttered.
"Have you really got the heart to leave? If you haven't then you are a real human. If you have got the heart to leave then I'm sorry to say, you are still Coluan," Cham asked.
Brainy looked at the resurrection signet who was Mia, to Cham then Shrinking Violet to Timber wolf and Phantom girl.
"But I nearly killed Superman," Brainy was close to tears.
"Nearly, not quite. Even if you did wouldn't have Mia brought him back?" Timber wolf yapped.
"Brainy, Ferro lad is back and he could easily force you to stay," Phantom girl reminded.
"Have you really got the heart to leave us all behind?" Mia whimpered.
Brainy thought about it. He realized what he would lose if he did leave. His friends, his lab, COMPUTO, battles and his old self. A pang of guilt spread into his stomach what only a human would have. He was human. If he was a robot he would have resisted all the puppy dog faces and left without any hesitation. But now he was human and he was hesitating.
"No, I haven't," Brainy sighed looking down at his packed bag. "I haven't got the heart to leave," He said a bit louder.
"Good," Timber wolf said plainly and helped Brainy Un pack his bag.
"Timber wolf can you please make some special celebration cookies? Please?" Phantom girl whined.
"Sure, help Brainy unpack while I'll make some celebration cookies," Timber wolf yawned.

The next day Mia got out her bed and sensed something was not right. She ran to Brainy's lab to see Shrinking Violet and Brainy playing a game. That wasn't the unusual thing about them though. They were smaller and sounded a bit more babyish.
"I need to move there," Shrinking Violet gurgled.
"But I need to move there," Brainy answered in a childish voice… "Hey who are you tall girl?"
Mia gasped. She was caught. She ran to Cham's room and knocked pretty loudly. There came the sound of a door lock being unlocked.
"What's with the entire racket?" Cham asked sleepily.
"Never mind the racket wake Timber wolf and Phantom girl up," Mia instructed.
"Never mind waking us up we're already here. I just went to the toilet and on the way back I saw toddlers. Not just any toddler. Brainy and Vi," Timber wolf yawned with Phantom girl clinging to his left furry arm.
Cham looked at Timber wolf's orange pajamas and Phantom girl's black and white Dalmatian pajamas. He then looked at Mia's pure white silky, glistening pajamas. He let out a snort and then let it be followed by laughter.
"Nice pajamas!" He laughed. "Let's have a pillow fight," He exclaimed hitting Timber wolf with a pillow.
"Stop fooling round Cham, this is serious. Everyone get dressed and meet in Brainy's lab to sort out the legionnaire toddlers.
Everyone got dressed as instructed and met in Brainy's lab where the toddlers were still playing the board game.
"Right then, Brainy, Vi could you come with us for a minute?" Timber wolf asked in his gentlest voice. (This was hard because he was always gruff).
The two toddlers looked up at the surrounding legionnaires.
"Ok," They chorused standing up and holding hands.
"That wasn't so bad," Cham said leading the way out to the injury unit.
When they appeared at the injury unit Shrinking Violet and Brainy screamed.
"Shhh, it's Ok," Phantom girl comforted bending down at the toddlers height.
"No it's not. We don't want operations," Brainy said fiercely.
The older legionnaires looked at each other confused.
"Operations? Who said anything about operations?" Mia questioned.
"Umm," Shrinking Violet hummed.
"No-one did," Cham answered the question for them.
Timber wolf silently got a weird shaped tool and turned it on.
"What is that?" Shrinking Violet shrieked.
"It's a backing device. Used only for turning you back to normal," Brainy shivered.
"How did you know?" Timber wolf asked.
"I built it," Brainy replied covering his mouth of what he just said.
"Ok, Vi, Brainy? There are some of you still in there. Brainy you said you made the backing device. Vi, you should know what this is," Cham said holding a fluffy worm like creature.
"It's an amastrious minion. Only found on a planet like Azarath," Shrinking Violet exclaimed before she too held her mouth firmly.
"There's no need to hide your intelligence. We know you're not little kids and you know it too," Phantom girl explained.
"Maybe you're right Phantom girl," Shrinking Violet grew sadly along with Brainy.
"We thought if we acted like kids and we were the size…" Brainy stuttered.
"We get the story," Timber wolf growled at being tricked.
"Why would you want to be kids anyway? Yesterday everyone was gutted because you were leaving, Brainy. Why would you want to be kids again?" Mia begged.
"Because we-I wanted to redo all that darkness that happened and if I was kid my best friend, Vi, would accompany me and she'd tell me to stop and think," Brainy blushed.
"Oh guys, Brainy we did tell you no one was mad at you," Cham laughed at Brainy's reddish form.
"But going back in time, is not the right thing to do. What is done is done and no-one can replace it. People can see you and that is what is dangerous. You could end up crushed, swallowed into…" Mia trailed off her line "I'm not going into further detail," Mia wandered off down the hallway and entered her room. Brainy, Vi, Cham, Timber wolf and Phantom girl looked at the suspicious girl.
"The resurrection girl is mysterious. She didn't even pick a code name. She just stuck with her name, Mia. She knows even more stuff that Brainy," Phantom girl whizzed on and off things as usual.
"Brainy? What is her IQ?" Cham asked the small Coluan.
"14 level," Brainy said slowly.
Everyone was silent.
