Eli fell to one knee hugging Aiko as she came to him. "Hush now child, its gonna be okay. You gonna be okay now sweet pea." Eli made it to his feet, though it took him a minute, never letting her go. He her once lost her, but that wasn't gonna happen a second time. 

Turning his attention to the Shit Stankin Piss Wrecking Bitch. "I don't care how these powers or the effects of it on whoever.  I'd be happy to help anyone that has yet to stab me, or kidnapped a small child. Let alone my friend. So have fun with it, cause ain't no one gonna take us again. I guess could burn 
your hair off and see what happens. Eli said with more than enough defiance for the whole room if not more. 

There was a distinct difference on what he was willing to do for someone who had wronged him and one that had done the same but had redeeming qualities. In his mind The Shit Stankin Piss Wrecking Bitch had none. Anyone that taken all the metas in L.A would surely more than a few people that could speak English. Either way, she had done enough for him not care. 

"Come now child, we're gonna be okay. Ain't no body gonna be taken a one a slave. I'll burn em before they get a chance." Eli should have known better than to be so confident. Evidence had shown him that as long as this girl was around he was no where near the fighter he was even a week ago. A man that once had next to nothing to lose now had a lot more.
