I really liked the touches of sarcastic humor in the face of danger. The bit about the plan and Elle’s courage running away made me laugh out loud. For me, it conjured up an image of the dish running away with the spoon from the old nursery rhyme.
Yay! Thanks for pointing that line out. It's one of my favorites.
And thank you so much, Em, for all your wonderful comments!!!

That's probably one of the reasons I'm finding Elle so fun to write (Pete too!). So I'm glad you're enjoying it, Ann!
As for the confusion - Elle was running from Luthor, but as soon as she shut the door, she felt she needed to do something to help Pete... make sure help was on the way since she didn't have any way of backing him up herself.
Good job Sara, I am also looking forward to the next chapter.
Thanks, Laura!!
Don’t you dare to kill Pete!
I say nothing!
Part 27 coming up soon!
Sara
