>>19619067Champion? She liked the sound of that. No more Choke-Again. No more losing. Holly beamed, radiant positivity glistening off her, the lights of the arena causing her sweaty form to sparkle. She’d won.
Turning to the rice-demon, Holly pouted for a moment, then offered a hand.
“I told you, Oni, I’d win.”
“There are too many things I need to do. And I’m not about to let love get in the way… Not when I need to keep fighting, keep winning for love.”
“Besides,” She winked, “I still owe you a present. Just one I get to pick.”
Turning to the crowd, Holly grabbed the mic from the ref, and grinned, “Your NEW IMPERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION.”
“Maybe if Onigiri had better taste in friends then I’d not have that title.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure not to quit and vacate this title suddenly. Some of us have to be role models.”
“And remember, kids! Hope and Hope Again!”
