"What do you mean Wynonna knows?" Jeremy asked nervously

"She knows about the Peacemaker," Waverly paused, "She knows it's me."

Jeremy gulped, "How?"

"She didn't tell me." Waverly ran her fingers through her hair

"Okay- this could be a good thing. With her being in the agency that- uhm- killed your parents. She could give us information."

"She won't, she doesn't want me getting hurt." Waverly said while pacing

"Then you'll have to prove to her that you won't get hurt." Jeremy said while pointing to the safe

Waverly looked at it and took a breath, "Why not."

"Okay, suit up." Jeremy said while opening his laptop

Once Waverly was dressed, she made her way to Wynonna's apartment.

She knocked on her window, and once Wynonna saw her, she gave her a look.

She opened the window and jumped in, "Okay, before you say anything. I need to tell you that I'm very capable of keeping me and my friends safe."

Wynonna nodded, "But one day, you're going to get yourself hurt."

Waverly pulled down her hood, "I'm not saying that day won't come but when it does, I'll be prepared."

Wynonna shook her head, "Fine."

Waverly smiled, "Really?"

"I mean, you've been keeping this city safe for, I don't know how many months. But you seem to be doing a good job." Wynonna shrugged

"Thank you, it means a lot."

"Okay, okay, enough. You have a city to save." Wynonna pointed to the window

"Okay, see you tomorrow?" Waverly asked

"See you then." Wynonna said as she watched her little sister jump out of the window

Waverly listened to Jeremy as he guided her to a nearby hostage situation. Once she arrived, the police were already on site.

"Jeremy, what do I do?" Waverly asked

"Go in. You need to make the police force trust you."

Waverly walked in and saw a girl being held with a gun to her head.

"Hello, officers." Waverly said, and all of them turned their guns from the criminal to her

"Okay no need for those. I'm here for the same reason you are, to save this girl." Waverly held up her hands

The police chief spoke first, "Fine, but after, me and you are going to have a talk."

Waverly nodded as they all turned their attention to the girl.

"Okay, so what's your name?" Waverly asked the man holding the gun

One of the officers started to tell Waverly his name, but she stopped him, "I asked him."

"M-my names Champ." He said while pressing the gun to the girls head

"Okay, Champ, my name is the Peacemaker. Nice to meet you."

His hands started shaking, "I don't want to shoot her, but if you get any closer I will."

"Okay, I'll stay here," Waverly stopped walking, "Now I know you don't want to do this."

Champ stayed silent.

"I know because we're the same, you and I." Waverly nodded

"How so?"
