Fleeing the Renegade

[CaptainL]

As the camera crew stepped away, Molly...just stood there, blinking a couple of times. "Uhh...okay?" That was it? Just two questions? When they'd told her the press was interested in her thoughts after the match, Molly had expected something a little more...involved. But if they were going to go so soon, it just left her asking herself what the point of it all was. Could they really not have waited until the tension died down some? Or until Molly had the chance to make herself decent? She blushed a little harder as they turned away, holding her hand closer to the towel wrapped around her chest in order to hug her arms around her body. If that was it, then she really couldn't help but feel taken advantage of.

But it was right then that Harmonia came barging through the door - and at that, Molly jumped back with a gasp! At first, when she saw Harmonia hurl one of the interviewers straight into the wall, the Englishwoman winced and shied away. She was no stranger to her fiance's fiery temper, and she knew full well that it could get the two of them into trouble - but more trouble was about the last thing she needed right now! "M-Moni, wait-!!" she tried to call out, but it wouldn't do any good in getting Harmonia's attention. The Austrian already knew what she wanted, and she was going to get it.

When she heard the fire in Harmonia's booming voice, Molly's teeth clenched nervously. That was...until she listened a little closer, and heard what Harmonia was saying. No matter what had happened, Harmonia had recognized the passion Molly put into everything she did in standing up for herself, and how well she had lived up to the spirit of what the Superstars really were about - putting that passion and that pride on display for the world. No matter what had happened...Harmonia could never see Molly in any way but the way she did. She was her fiance, her protege, and her partner. And even if Harmonia was a bit...headstrong about it, Molly couldn't help but look up and smile a little wider, knowing that. Renee might have tried to tear her down, but there would always be someone who believed in her.

When Harmonia admonished her about charging into fights, Molly let out a sigh, looking down at the ground. She knew she was supposed to be better than this - she was supposed to be the cooler head; the voice of reason that brought her more hot-tempered partners into line. "Yeah...I'm sorry, Moni. I just figured I'd be able to take her. I didn't expect she'd go...that far." Tears began to bud at the corners of her eyes. As much as she was relieved to know Harmonia believed in her, the thought that she had disappointed her stung most of all.

But then, Harmonia draped her jacket around her shoulders, and Molly looked back up at her. "Ah..?" And then, when Harmonia scooped her off her feet and kissed her, Molly couldn't help but giggle with glee - even after all that had happened. As long as she had Harmonia, it'd be alright. "Mmm...thanks, Moni. I'm glad I can count on you..." She leaned in closer against her fiance, draping her arms around her shoulders to pull herself closer. Just doing so made her smile a little wider - there was something about being there, in her embrace, that left Molly with a sense of peace. Like everything was going to be okay.

Still, as Harmonia carried her outside, Molly looked off with another sigh. "I'm just sorry about the outfit..."

Harmonia had made her point clear. Having been in the sharktank that presented the showbusiness from a young age, she knew a thing or two about demands and stubborness. Also that interviewer had pissed her off. What was the deal? Hurting Molly even more at her lowest hour? Harmonia had told herself not to interfere, Molly had to fight her own fights and had to learn when she bit off more then she could chew but what happened with Renee, humiliating Molly and destroying her priced (not to mention expensive) ringgear lit a flame of rage i Harmonia that brcame a firestorm when she overheard the "interview" at one of the backstage screens.

Now she definetly had made clear what she thought of this ordeal. Did'nt the man want to know what "The Superstars" thought after all? Harmonia just had a look of satisfaction on her face as she easily lifted Molly, now realizing her bodily transformation all the more. Had Molly always been a lightweight to carry, now she was almost like air for the strong middlweight progidy.
When Molly started to speak tough Harmoniws icy grimace melted and she cockily blew a lose strand of hair from her forehead as she gave Molly a wink.

"You know I always got your back, ain't you carrot. And even if the end was'nt the best it was still a good matchm You did not hold back and you did not give up. And be as it be, you won. No one can take that from you.", Harmobia said as they approcached their personal changing rooms.
"Now lets get you in your clothes and then home. As a matter of fact, this whole dirty ordeal could not have happened at a better point. And as for Fräulein Steinhauser...", she said as she sat Molly down.
"For her,I have something too..."
