Letters to Molly

by Lanthiriel25

Episode link for 'The Carnival Job' S4E6. What Molly dealt with in this episode would be difficult for anyone to deal with, so what if Eliot kept in touch with Molly after they moved onto their next job, to make sure that she was ok? A series of letters from Eliot (and others) to Molly in the months following 'The Carnival Job', also featuring the rest of the Leverage family.

10. Chapter 10

Dear Molly,

Things have happened since my last letter and I thought it was time I filled you in on a few things. Eliot made me swear not to tell you any of this, but we need some information from you. I'm sorry. In his letters, has Eliot ever mentioned anything about 'Snake Charmer'? If he has, you must get in touch, Molly; this is very important.

I'm sorry that I lied to you, and I know Eliot hated asking it of me, but he only did it because he didn't want to worry you. I told you Eliot was injured on our last job, and he was, but I also made it sound like he came back to the States with us. He didn't. Molly, I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but he was taken. He let himself be taken, so we could get away. We're working round the clock to find a way to get him out, trying to find anything we can use to get in there and bring him home. So, if you know anything about 'Snake Charmer' or if he's ever mentioned something cryptic in his letters which you didn't quite understand, please get in touch; it may save his life.

I know it is horribly unfair to be laying this on you. Eliot is going to kill me when he gets home and finds out I told you, but we need all the help and intel we can get. Please try not to worry about him; you know Eliot, he's stubborn, he's trained and he's tougher than nails. He'll be fine. And we're going to bring home, ok? But just…anything you can tell us may help. So please get in touch if you can, my number's on the back of this letter.

I'm sorry.

Sophie
