13 years have passed, and I proved what my mother always said to me. That I was different and would succeed in anything I do.

I landed here when i was only 7 years old. The family I was placed in gave me a special test, to see where i would fit in the curriculum of the school I would be going to. They told me to leave it blank if i didn't want to answer, but I did not leave anything blank.

My mother took care of Kara's schooling while my father taught me everything he knew. My parents always said that Kara was a carbon copy of my mother, while i was the same as my father. He taught me many things about robotics and the body, but his favorite thing to teach me was what he learned from his travels. He had an arsenal of old books from Earth and taught me information from cover to cover.

This caused me to place into 9th grade when I passed the test.

I struggled with history lessons, but this did not stop me from graduating high school a year early. I only graduated because my brothers and I were competitive with each-other and I pushed myself to do better. I went off to college a year later when I was 11 because I wanted to travel the world. So Mrs. Ramon, i mean mom, and I traveled across the world. She showed me beautiful places like Thailand that had waters that were a clear blue as crystal, Rome that has so much history that made me respect the city, and Paris that has so much art that I enjoyed while my mom enjoyed the fashions she bought. My favorite place was Italy, the people were so kind, the food was amazing, and the landscape was equally beautiful as it was rich in history with rustic landmarks. I even spent my remaining time away from school teaching myself Italian, and leaving Italy proved to be harder than I expected.

I stuck out like a sore thumb at college, especially a prestigious like Johns Hopkins, since I was the only person on campus who wasn't old enough to be able to test for a driver's permit. But that didn't stop me from earning a degree. Well four degrees in three years. Bachelors in Molecular Biophysics (Genetic Engineering), my Masters in Medical and Biological Illustration (Pre Med), M.D and Ph.D. in Neuroscience, and Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering with a specialty in robotics.

Ever since my people and my planet were destroyed, I wanted to help people make sure what happened to Krypton did not happen here. So I went to medical school when I was 14. I graduated a year later, and went on to complete my internship, and redundancy. By the time I became a legal adult, i was a cardio-thoracics fellow. Now I am 20 years old and I'm heading to CCPD.

Ever since I became an attending surgeon for cardio, I wanted to do more. I wanted to prevent injuries before they even happened, and the only way to do that was to catch criminals. So I consult the Central City Police Department's CSI tech on cases. In addition to consulting on cases, I sometimes pick up hours in the ER for when i'm not operating.

Being a child prodigy condemned me to not having many friends growing up, but I had my brother. I was always close to Cisco since Dante treated me like a freak because of my education, abilities, and the scars I had from the accident.

And since I was close to Cisco, Dante and his friends treated him like a freak too and often bullied him at school.

I remember Cisco came home one day smelling awful and sporting a black eye. I almost completely lost control of my powers because of how furious I was. Dante and his friends had pushed his head into the toilet at school ad when Cisco knocked one of them over, another pushed him into the toilet lid, causing the black eye.

Let's just say that after that, Dante was too afraid to even attempt to look at Cisco when i was around. I didn't want to hurt him, but he didn't need to know that. I guarantee that is Kara was here, she would be telling me that threatening was wrong, but she also thought the world consisted of rainbows and unicorns. My accident showed me that there is a darkness in this world and unless you learn how to control the darkness within yourself, it will always try and consume you.
