Jessica was happy. Oh, so elated and happy. Nothing else if not excited. She totally had Fin in her control. What she’d have done so many years ago for this. It wasn’t exactly Fin, though, but whatever... and she only had her one day a week. Still.
“Well, F-Phoenix...” she began, watching Fin’s body radiate heat. “Can you, like...”
“Of course.”
The heat died down a bit, and Jessica wiped the tiny line of sweat from her forehead. “What can you do?”
“Everything the girl can do, but with much more power and control.”
Jessica grinned. “Can you kill?”
“If you want me to.”
Jessica gave a startled laugh. This was perfect! She could finally kill that little son-of-a-bitch Dick. The fun of it was that she wasn’t going to kill him, Fin was. And so what if that prophecy shit didn’t happen? The world would be saved, hooray, and Jessica might be able to watch Fin kill all her friends and family! Jessica smiled evilly and turned to Fin.
“We’re going to have so much fun together...”

Danna typed furiously, muttering under her breath. Dick typed on the other side of the room, watching the screens for any type of irregular pattern of heat. He looked to his sister, who wiped a bead of sweat from her forehead. “Is it... warm? In here, to you?” she asked, turning to her brother.
“Um... no.” He pointed to her pocket. “That might have something to do with it.”
She looked down and found that her pocket was glowing. She lifted Kyra’s necklace out of it, and instantly dropped it. “It burned me!” she exclaimed, bending over it and picking it up carefully with a bobby pin. It was pulsing slightly, to a certain rhythm, and was emitting waves of slight heat. “I don’t understand...”
“It’s a charm,” came a voice from the doorway. Kaylee walked in and pulled her red waves from her face, holding out her hand. Danna carefully dropped it in. “Fin left this with you two because it tells you when she’s in trouble. Delta...” Kaylee sighed. “Fin’s in mortal danger.”
“Say what now?” Mercy asked from the couch, peering over. Blade paused pouring a cup of coffee and Becca looked over from the computer. Phoebe looked out from the hall. “She’s going to...”
Kaylee held up the locket, which still pulsed. “It’s going to the beat of her heart.”
Everyone stared until the alarm blasted and Dick looked to the screen. “F-Phoenix...” he muttered, and they were off.
