"We will work on that smile someday." Elpis noted as she flew away from Moon Arrow and into the crime scene, as she got closer and closer she recalled the words of advice given to her by his brother when he asked her for Elpis' first autograph.

"Be flashy, smoke and mirrors it may be, it is how the public garners fame. This is especially true during debuts where a Talent's skill set remains unclear.

Colorful flames began to surround her body invoking the image of blazing wings as she flew through the sky, it wasn't really providing her any benefits but the fans might believe that they do. Her speed at chasing the car wasn't impressive compared to speedsters but it was fast enough to reach it.

She didn't immediately descend to the vehicle like most heroes and instead focused on encircling the car to let the driver be aware of her wonderful presence and give her time to assess the situation. On the driver seat is a young man nearly the same age as her brother, pushing the gas pedal as hard as he could. Behind him were a bunch of bags that were not filled with money but with items like clothes, pillows and some cans of food.

She could feel it, what was inside his heart she could see the surprise in his eyes, the fear in his body as the flames got closer. And the shame creeping to his shoulders and the desperation from fleeing his life.

"It's okay." the Maiden of Hope spoke through the intercom and the car's fearful driver. Her flames began getting smaller, just enough to keep up with the car.

What a weird unscripted debut, there is no criminal for her to stop but someone to help.

But that's just how most of her patrols go.

"No one is out to get you, we're here to help." She spoke with complete confidence and sincerity.

"I can't."

"What?"

"THE BRAKES AREN'T WORKING, I CAN'T STOP IT!" he yelled to Elpis which is heard through the intercom as he tried turning the wheel to no avail.

Credit to Elpis she didn't panic and instead began looking ahead of the road which is about to reach a turn, it doesn’t take much to realize that there is almost no time for the car to turn.

"Jump!" she ordered as she began pushing the car back, planting her shoes on the asphalt road.

She managed to slow down the vehicle but her strength alone wouldn't be enough to kill it completely but she didn’t need to do this alone.
