However, when the a bolt seemingly strike Saturn Girl, the Legion are shocked to find that it was really Chameleon Boy's pet Proty in disguise. However, in spite of who sacrificed himself, Lightning Lad is restored to life. When the real Saturn Girl catches up with the Legion, she explains that as Proty was also a telepath, the creature learned of Saturn Girl's intention to sacrifice herself to restore Lightning Lad, and sacrificed itself in her place.
