Aziza buried her head in Kyle's chest. Kyle could feel her body shaking.
"Are you going to be OK?" he asked her.
"I guess."
Aziza's voice was so low that Kyle barely heard it.
"What happened?".
Aziza explained how she had been abducted straight out of bed the night before. A black bag was placed over her head as she was taken to the airport. She was stripped of her clothes and forced to dress as a man.
She said that she's aftaid that maybe her family changed their minds and want back her home to force her to detransition.
"But that doesn't make any sense" Kyle said. "I thought that your parents sent you here because they love you."
He felt Aziza shrug her shoulders.
"The people who kidnapped me wouldn't tell me anything."
Kyle looked up at Kylie, who was sitting on a chair across from them.
"Hey Kylie, maybe you can figure out what's going on?"
Kylie was about to say something before she suddenly vanished from the living room.
Aziza gasped.
"Oh right, I forgot to tell you that Kylie is magical or something."

Kylie found herself in Jennifer Smith's bedroom once again.
"Look, we need to have a talk" Jennifer said with a serious expression on her face.
"Um...you could have just texted me."
"No, that would leave a trail, this has to be in person. Listen, Kylie, first of all, you did the right thing rescuing that trans girl tonight. I'm so proud of you for doing that, and everything you're doing for Kyle is fantastic. But...and this is a big but, you were incredibly reckless. Fucking teleporting on an airplane?!!! They all saw your face, Kylie. They belong to a private security firm, Kylie. They easily could find out who you and Kyle are!"
Kylie gasped. "Look, I'm sorry. I..."
"Thankfully, your big sister here is the Sorceress Supreme" Jennifer said, pointing towards herself. "I wiped their memories of you and Kyle, and I erased the security footage on the plane before anyone else realized you two were there. All anyone knows is that Aziza somehow disappeared from the flight somewhere over Tunisia."
"So she's safe?" Kylie asked.
"For now. But eventually they'll go back and look for her in Glendale. It's up to you to keep her safe, Kylie."
"Why can't *you* protect her? You're the Sorceress Supreme."
"Uh, because I'm busy?" Jennifer said with a rude tone of voice, reminding Kylie of the bitchy cheerleader she knew from high school. "I've been keeping a god of chaos from entering our reality for the last month and eating everyone's souls. And plus I've got a date tonight."
"A date? With who?"
"Tom. We've got tickets to see Bad Cinderella on Broadway."
Kylie rolled her eyes.
"Whatever..."
"There's one more thing. Kylie, do you realize what you did tonight should not have happened?"
Kylie looked at her with confusion.
"Your powers, they're evolving. You're gaining more and more control over physical reality, and it's getting scary, OK?Remember how you caused a six month worldwide winter in your previous reality? The Fimbulwinter?"
"Uh, yeah."
"Well, I'm not letting anything like that happen here, not on my watch. I'm not letting anything catastrophic happen whenever you stub your toe or get upset or decide to be a drama queen for whatever reason. So next week, I'm going to start teaching you to control your powers."
"Um...Aziza tried to help me with that. It didn't work. What makes you think you'll be any different?"
"The difference is that I'm not your girlfriend. I'm not going to go easy on you."

Without even a goodbye, Kylie suddenly found herself back in Kyle's living room.
