"Look, Phoenix, I can help you, but there's the fact that I'm a literal villain, and you're a literal hero. You'll be in danger if you stay with me, you know that right?" Elsie, also known as Circe, was just baffled. She wasn't even sure how the kid had even gotten her number, but she felt such pity for the girl. She knew what it was like, after all.

"I'll always be in danger, Circe. Please." Was all the young girl said, and despite the fact she was a villain, Elsie's heart broke, because she knew that this girl and her were so alike.

A sigh left Elsie's lips, and she glanced over to her wife who was listening in while she was cooking them dinner. Their eyes met, and her reaction said it all. "Okay kid, I'm coming to pick you up. Where are you at?" When Phoenix told her the address, Elsie smiled. "I'll be there in ten. Keep safe for me, yeah?"

"Yes ma'am." Phoenix whispered, and hung up, leaving Elsie to stare at her phone for a few moments.

"First Jackson, now Phoenix. You really get yourself roped up into protecting these kids, don't you Elsie?" Delilah smirked over at her wife who groaned and flipped her off, which only made Delilah laugh. Silence encompassed them for a few moments.

"I can't just leave them like that, you know that." Elsie finally spoke up, and Delilah's eyes softened.

"I know, love. I know." Silence again.

"I'll go get her, I love you." Elsie whispered, and Delilah smiled.

"Love you too." And with a golden flash, Elsie was gone from the living room.

Dunno how to end this, but I hope this was an okay read for everyone. My second story on here!

When I made the mention of Jackson, my thought on his story was that Elsie had saved him from an abusive situation when he was fairly young. He's late teens now, and I like to imagine he has powers of persuasion, which could make him a good villain if he wanted to be, or a good hero.
