“Can you run me home? I would like to really just go home,” Bette felt a bit disappointed, but it was understandable, “Sure thing Miss. Kennard,” Bette picked up Tina, and sped off, to them it was like they were going in slow motion, Tina had never seen anything like it, she blinked; it felt like it took forever for her to do so, but when she opened her eyes she felt a sudden stop with a gust of wind like a really big truck just flew by them. They were here at her house; Bette carefully placed her down,

“Wow that was fast,” Tina straightened out her clothes, “Thank you NiRa, really I don’t know what I would have done…”

“No need to thank me Miss. Kennard, it was a pleasure…,” Bette looked towards the window and saw the writer/reporter who would always seem to find her when she was working, looking out the living room window while sitting on the couch with her mouth agape and eyes wide. At building fires, bank robberies, and pretty much anything where she could get notice of Bette’s arrival, Alice would be there. She saw her rush from the window and to what she could only assume was the front door,

“You live with Alice?” Bette asked, Tina turned around and saw the front door fly open and Alice making her way toward them. Tina knew Alice would be excited, she was always talking about if she could get a word in with Night Raider, that she could get the front page.

“Yeah sorry—“

“NiRa! If I could have a word with you,”

“Alice, there are people that need saving, I’m sure you’d rather me save them then staying here, I would presume at least,” Bette stared at Alice, waiting for her answer which would probably go unanswered, after a moment Bette spoke,

“Miss. Kennard I hope you’re alright. The police will be by sometime tomorrow to question you. I hope you’re ok now?” Bette asked, she was concerned about Tina, but she new she would be fine now that she was home and safe.

“I am fine now, thank you again,” Bette smiled to Tina, and was about to walk off,

“Wait NiRa, if I could just have you’re number—“

“That wouldn’t be wise Alice, good night. Take care of Miss. Kennard,” Bette smiled sweetly at Tina, giving her one last look that made Tina look down shyly. Her smile brightened and then she turned around, and sped off spreading her wings. She was off to another night of protecting and crime fighting.

“Tina, what the fuck happened?! Why was she here? Are you ok?” Tina grabbed Alice’s hand and wrapped it around her back for comfort and turned around to walk in the house, telling Alice all that happened that night.

At 6 in the morning Bette headed home done for the night. She thanked god that she didn’t ever have to sleep again, or she would be dead to the world. In a way she kind of was. She super sped into her backyard, which had a pool and a nice garden. She went directly into her shed which faced the forest and had a back door facing the house; she changed bringing a bag with her black ‘uniform’ in it out with her. She usually left it in there, but she wanted to give it a wash. She walked through the back door of her house.

“Well well well look who decided to come home after all, I’ve been waiting here all night Night Raider, or should I say Elizabeth.”
