This was written by a person, who shall not be named until the end, but be warned that I didn't write this but someone very close to me did. And this is their first time writing anything that wasn't an essay or paper for school!

This is the first chapter of said person's drabble series they say that they are planning on writing.

Chapter 1: First Impressions

Timber Wolf stared down at his hand though the focus of his gaze was directed towards the gold band snaked around his middle claw. A long 'L' was set off much to the side of the ring with a small star to the right of it.

He was completely lost; he didn't really know to do know. It was only a week earlier that he had dodged his fathers attempts at capture in the untamed jungle in the form of a beast and now he was at least in human form with clothes, away from the boscage and into civilization with a group of teens called "The Legion of Superheroes".

He was given the gold band from the blond haired Coluan, Brainiac 5 or affectionately nicknamed "Brainy" and was told that the flight ring that hugged his claw could be used to communicate with other members and allowed members to fly. At that moment, his heart plunged deep down into his body. Despite Saturn Girl's reassurance and promise that he wouldn't be sent out on any missions until she was certain that he was ready, Timber Wolf refused to be babysat while the others were out fighting, he wanted to do his part.

The wolf-like Legionnaire relied much on the bond with the blonde psychic and had even conversed a bit with the acclaimed Superman, he had little to no knowledge about the other members. He had been acquainted with Lightening Lad, Brainaic 5, and Bouncing Boy but he knew that there were other members of the Legion he had yet come into any contact with. When he questioned Saturn Girl about it, she had reassured him that he would be meet them later on since most of them were still away on missions.

He let out a sigh before his ears twitched at the sound of faint footsteps. Timber Wolf turned his gaze from his flight ring to the door, his ears twitched before he confirmed that the footsteps were louder than before. He leaned forward on the counter in the kitchen of the Legion intently, he had figured that it was a female Legionnaire since the steps were light with the repetitious beat of tapping against the floor. The muscles underneath the fur on his brow scrunched together in confusion, he had memorized the sound of Saturn Girl's footsteps and instantly knew that the one walking was one that he had not met before.

In this realization, his heart unexpectedly began to race in his chest. What would happen? Would she scream or attack at his sudden appearance...or even be disgusted with his appearance for that matter? He forced himself to relax and look down at the magazine he had lost interest in just as the door hissed open and the footsteps were no longer faded but much clearer. The door closed with yet another hiss and a single boot tapped against the floor at least two times before the footsteps was turned in his direction.

He greatly willed his heart to slow its beat for he was sure that his loud heartbeat could be reverberated off the walls. The counter he leaned on moved slightly and the person made its presence known by it's voice, "Hi!" He quickly turned his eyes upward to the face before he lifted his head to see the person's face better.

Timber Wolf looked straight into the face of another female Legionaire though she was not was he was expecting. Long black locks of hair spilled of her shoulders, large onyx doll-like eyes, pale skin, lips masked in black lipstick. At this point something white flashed before his eyes and he immediately wrapped his claw like fingers around it, he stared down at the girl whom smiled sheepishly.

"Sorry," She apologized and glanced quickly at what he held in his grasp before turning her attention back at him, "Can I have my wrist back please?" She blinked her eyes at him and waited patiently for him to respond. He turned his eyes towards his own hand to see that he had her wrist and immediately released it silently.

"You're the newest Legionaire I've heard about, Timber Wolf right?" He raised his face back to the girl, he must have gave a face that read 'duh' because she chuckled nervously before she cleared her throat and smiled back at him. Timber Wolf relaxed a bit more, though he couldn't see them, he could most definitely smell what a person was feeling by their scent. The girl was a definitely nervous and even a bit embarrassed which caused the legionnaire to smirk on the inside.

"I'm Phantom Girl," She spoke again and held out her hand in front of him. Name fits her He thought as he slipped his much larger hand into hers and gave a gentle shake before he released it.

She took back her hand to cross her arms in front of her as she leaned against the counter too, "I guess we'll be seeing more of each-other now that we're teammates." After a moment of silence after she started to fidget, Phantom Girl gave him a nod and pushed herself gently off the counter, "Well I better go, Brainy wanted to see me for something so I guess I'll be seeing you later. Bye." With a hiss of the door, she was gone.

Timber Wolf let out a sigh before he tried to return to his magazine but he just couldn't force himself to read it. Phantom Girl's scent still lingered around him and he gave his head a small shake in annoyance not at her but at himself. He could have at least said something to her perhaps even returned the greeting or at least seem approachable, he knew his new appearance was intimidating and his stare and silence treatment didn't exactly seem like gregarious attitude. He had been stuck in the form of a beast for three months with no human contact with the exception of his father though he couldn't remember having any friends before the experimentation.

Brin Londo was not a people person...and that was going to change.

Timber Wolf let out another sigh and abandoned his post at the counter with the intent of searching for the monochromatic girl. And with his new powers, it wasn't going to be a challenge. Her scent immediately hit him as soon as he left the kitchen, he took a minute to fully take in her scent now that it wasn't cluttered with emotions. Each human had a unique scent and by that scent, Timber Wolf could tell what they were feeling to what shampoo they used that morning. He knew that Saturn Girl used strawberry scented shampoo, Bouncing Boy loved old movies by the scent of dust, and that Lightening Lad had strong affection for the psychic and that he was jealous when she got too close to other males.

However, Phantom Girl's scent was much different than what he imagined it to be. The refreshing aroma of rain overwhelmed his senses and he took a step out of the scent path. From her scent, she stood there for a minute or so before leaving. She did say that Brainy needed her He remembered the excuse she used to leave then again it could have been just an excuse. Before Timber Wolf took a step back into the path, he allowed himself to sigh before he returned. Opening his eyes, the background was now a light greyscale with everything either a shade of grey or black and the only color that was in front of him was a very light blue. The color was a small shimmery path that led from the door and disappeared down the hallway. Without a second thought, he started down the hallway as he followed the shimmering faded blue trail.

After a couple of twists and turns down hallways and through automatic hissing doors, he finally managed to find where she was by the small conversation that his ears picked up. From what he could hear through the automatic door, he was surprised to find it open a bit and crept slowly up to it and leaned his head toward the opening. Now he knew eavesdropping was not acceptable but Brin Londo was not a Saint. Besides, it'd give me a good chance to discover a bit more about her He tried to justify his actions with that single thought.

"Ow! Could you be any more harder?" He could immediately pick up on Phantom Girl's voice.

"Well perhaps if you wouldn't struggle so much it wouldn't hurt." The calm yet irritated Coluan's voice cut through the air. The comment made by the Coluan made him freeze. What exactly were they doing?

Silence came after that and it wasn't until that the pregnant pause in speech almost made him rush into the room that Brainy spoke once again, "You should have come to see me first."

"Well Saturn Girl said the new recruit was here and I just wanted to say hello." She sounded nervous, like a child whom knew full well that it was in trouble.

"You should know that after every mission, everyone reports to me to be checked on. Meeting Timber Wolf could have waited later."

Phantom Girl snickered, "Yes Mom."

Once again there was silence though Timber Wolf was sure that his ears picked up the faint movements of fabric.

"So?"

"So what?" Was her reply.

"What did you think of him?"

"Timber Wolf? Well he's okay, I mean I don't know him all that well but he's-"

Brainy cut her off, "Quiet? Recent? Tenacious?" Timber Wolf smirked. Obviously eavesdropping helped boost his ego.

"I was going to say intimidating. I talk but all he did was stare at me, that involves no blinking and it was so awkward." Timber Wolf felt his ears fall down, he didn't mean to make her feel like that and now he could feel himself blush in embarrassment under his fur.

"He's new Phantom Girl, give him a chance if I can remember when you-" Timber Wolf was started when the Coluan was cut off by the monochromatic girl's stern voice, "Don't you even bring that up, that was totally different and you know it."

Silence followed once more and he heard a small tap, "Well you're set to go Phantom Girl, if you see Triplicate Girl perhaps-"

"if I could drag her away from her shopoholic tendacies for ten minutes to get herself checked out? Sure thing, chief!" He heard heels click together and could only guess that she had saluted him. Problem was that he was in the hallways listening in on their conversation with little to no time to get out of the way before she walked through the door to discover him and he would immediately lose any hopes of befriending her...Sprock.

Well that's part one kiddies, what did you think? If your asking me if I wrote this then no, this was done by my own niece! She refuses to get a profile just yet...teens, what can you do with them?

Anyway please review! She's very anxious about this and is pretty sure that this was an 'epic failure'.
