Walking down the street happy and glowing after there bath. Huntrix pass what they at first think are more fans gushing for an autograph, but one of them yells out a derogatory comment towards Rumi, gesturing to her bare arms.
Before Rumi can even let the cruelty of it sink in and feel it, a new fear overtakes her. Knows she needs to stop what's about to happen before it's to late. Turning on her heels she wraps her arms around Zoey, who surges forward with a enraged look in her eyes. Blocking the maknae from getting at the offending man.
"Rumi, no let me get em" Zoey squirms but can't get passed her.
It's not easy to hold Zoey back, Rumi uses all her strength but Zoey is resourceful climbing up Rumi's body. Even as Rumi pulls her back down she keeps surging up. Crawling over Rumi with feverish intensity. Putting Rumi Off balance, as Zoey gets up over her left shoulder and they fall to the ground. Controlling their decent and catching Zoey, Rumi has her pinned, but she continues to struggle.
"Zoey it's ok, it's not worth it" Rumi pleads meeting her eyes.
"Why does Mira get too?" Zoey pouts.
It's only then Rumi realises her mistake.
Rumi lifts her head to look up, and Mira is no longer standing at there side, but towering over the man that yelled out. Hasn't touch them, hasn't even laid a finger or said a word, she just glares.
"It's ok Rumi, these boys were just on there way"
"I-I..s-sorry" The man croaks out, his pants coated in what appears to be his own urine.
Mira remains still as the man runs off disappearing in the crowd and she turns back to them. Rumi can't help but blush, feeling a her heart race at the two of them protecting her. Mira's glare she is well aware could scare Gwi-Ma itself. A face that immediately softens at the sight of Rumi laying atop Zoey.
"You two, ok?" Mira teases, with a smirk at the corner of her lips.
"Oh uh sorry" Rumi said as she realises she is still holding Zoey down but she has stopped fighting.
Rumi feels her cheeks flush and stands up but Zoey doesn't let go instead wrapping herself around Rumi in a koala like hold. Resting her head on Rumi shoulder with tears in her eyes.
"Hey, its ok, I'm ok" Rumi stutters out her voice giving away her anxieties.
Mira steps closer wrapping her arms around them both swaying a little and the just stay like that for a minute or two.
"Better now though" Rumi croaks out.
