The Misadventures of Charlie Bombay

@inkstep

Charlie's eyes, eventhough they were hidden behind thick lenses, met Pixle's uneasy glance. He flashed her a reassuring smile and nodded twice, as if to say, 'I've got your back,'. Quickly, he scrambled up to his loft and dressed in the lavender uniform and returned to the floor. The officer who had come for the wake up call had a perminate scowl etched on her face. 'Follow me,' she barked, her hazel eyes narrowing. 'But-' Charlie began to protest,' The leading officer severed his speech, 'No buts, I know that the girl is disabled, but that counts for nothing here. This is an equal oppurtinuty facility,' Gritting his teeth, Charlie calmed himself before he could lash out. 'She's missing a leg. Do you want her to hop around on her good leg. Muscle mass in her other leg is wittling away due to lack of use.' Before nodding, the woman sneered. 'Alright then. Follow me to the weapons divison. You'll chose one besides the issued knife. YOu only get one selection, so choose wisley.'

Pixle rolled her eyes some, focusing, unseen, on the seam between where the woman stood, and the floor, she heated up the electricity that had been dulled, just enough to melt her soles to the heated metal of the ground. A small smirk crossed the girl's face as she leaned forward, falling out of the bed unintentionaly and landing with a metal crack "ok, ow for one" she muttered, cringing some as she sat up and ducked her leg under her.

@inkstep I miss you! Freedom is a sweet, sweet prize!

Narrowing his eyes, Charlie stepped toward the door. The woman stood, refusing to budge. With dark skin and mysterious green eyes, the woman really did embody the evil entity. She coughed and muttered something under her breath. Shifting her weight, Commander Luxx found she was immoblilized. Her brow knitted as her lips twitched. Cocking her head, she spoke into an invisible ear piece. 'Disengage magnetic barrier,' she hissed, her voice commanding silence. The hum of a machine quickly fizzled. Attempting to move once again, the woman shot an angry glance to the duo. Charlie parted his lips, the curled them into a smile. 'This is not funny, boy! Whatever you are trying to pull will not work around me!' Her voice was tinged with an icy venom. With a fluid movement, Charlie glanced back to see Pixle on the floor. 'You okay?' he whispered and extended a hand to help her to her feet.

@swimforlife
srry I havent been on, I've been 'celeberating' with icecream and horror movies.

Pixle let out a bit of a snicker as she watched the woman. Nodding a yes to charlie's question, she smirked again "Im fine...." the small albino muttered under her breath. Her eyes locked on the woman's face, a cruel smirk replaced the amused one as she tilted her head a bit "What's wrong, can't move?" she felt as though she were getting revenge in a way, though she wasnt sure how

@inkstep Yayayayayayayyayaya Sounds like fun!

Simply, the woman sneered, cocked her head and stepped from the boots. 'Well, looks like I'm unstuck now. Let's get a move on, you should be in the feild by now.' She slipped down the hallway at an unprecedneted rate, CHarlie wondered how it was humanly possible to move that quickly. 'What about you chair?' Charlie asked, stepping back toward Pixle. 'Want me to carry you?'

inkstep • 31 July 2012 at 11:04 AM

@swimforlife 😃 I JUST SCORED! my mom told my brother's soccer coach that I am into computers and what not and he asked me to run the website- update and edig and all that fun crap-

"I-" the girl lowered her head, a blush running over her cheeks for a moment or two at Charlie's offer, she still always felt kind of weird around him, a good kind of weird though. Despite not wanting to seem like a burden and have to have help, she couldn't really do anything without the chair, as far as travel went anyway. Pixle nodded her head some "I-if you can, I don't think I can do anything without the chair" she laughed just slightly at the end of her sentence, the slight smirk faded quickly but the blush stayed on her face.

@inkstep

Congrats! 😃 I am soooooo happy for you. I wish I was good enough at something like that.

Helping Pixle sent a tingle through Charlie's chest. Never before had he held someone's life in his hands, no pun intended. Being needed and accepted was something new. He loved and craved that feeling. The tingle knotted in his chest, tiny imaginary spiders danced across his skin. 'I'd be happy to help. You're my sister, afterall,' he said the last bit with a wink. Pixle had awakened a dorment feeling in Charlie, just knowing she was alive and in no immediate danger sent him over the moon. 'Let's go!' he added, wrapping his arms around her frail body. He slung the girl onto his back in a makeshift piggy-back ride.

inkstep • 31 July 2012 at 8:08 PM

@swimforlife you're good at a lot of things I'm sure, heck I had a dream last night that I met you at the olympics IRL and you won a gold medal and broke a world record in swimming, haha!

Pixle let out a bit of a giggle as he picked her up "yea lez'go!" she said jokingly "onward ho!" pointing her finger and making the scene a bit more enjoyable and comical, She shot a glare through the air for no reason what so ever, trying to occupy her mind.

Deleted • 31 July 2012 at 8:52 PM

@inkstep I had a dream I met you, this was a while ago, but you were with this huge African American body guard-YIKES!

Grinning, Charlie bounced around and brayed. 'Hi-Ho, Lime Head...AWAY!' he added, between giggles. Galloping out of the room, the brunette stopped as soon as he cleared the door. Luxx was sneering, with eyes dark enought to sink a ship. 'Who spit in her coffee?' Charlie whispered to the albino. Keying a code into the door, it slid open with a pop and a hiss. A room with blinding white light lay just beyond the woman's gaze. Wepons of all sizes and origins lined glass shelves and cubbies. 'Do not touch anything. When you find what calls to you, I shall assist you.' With that, Charlie wondered around, giving Pixle the view above his head. 'See anything you like, Elliks?' he asked, turining down a narrow walkway. A metal discus caught the boy's eyes. It glimmered in the light and seemed to beckon him. 'I think I found mine,' he spoke softly, 'Where to next? Javelin? Bow? Handgun?

inkstep • 31 July 2012 at 9:01 PM

@swimforlife XDDD that'd be weird

A snicker escaped the girl's mouth as she let her head rest on top of his. She shuddered some at the sound the door made, and her eyes burned with a pircing white pain as the light illuminated them. Whimpering some and rubbing her eyes, she had to squint hard to see anything. She bit her lip and thought some "think there are any whips?" she muttered, looking around the brightly lit area

Deleted • 2 August 2012 at 5:04 PM

@inkstep I should have been posting earlier.

Charlie's face lit up, knowing Pixle could decapitate anyone with a whip. 'I hope so, lets check,' he replied still smiling. If the tide turned against thier favor, Pixle could deffinetly save his butt...again. Adjusting his back, he strode over to another shelf, 'Hmmm. Not here, maybe we should ask General Mayhem, I mean Commander Luxx.' At the sound of her name, the woman glared daggers. 'What?' she snipped, not leaving out any anger. 'Whips? My sister's weapon do you have any?' Her brows knit, she laughed from the pit of her stomach. 'Fail your eye test? They are right behind you!' The smile fell from CHarlie's pale lips. 'Alright, Elliks.' He turned and faced a wooden cabniet. Whip like deisngs were engraved in the wood working.

inkstep • 2 August 2012 at 5:06 PM

@swimforlife you can post whenever you want

"mh..." she lowered her gaze a bit when the woman spoke, something about her sent a cold and oddly familiar, unwelcoming Chill up her spine. A small smile crossed her face at the fact that she could get her hands on a weapon she knew how to use. While the woman wasn't looking, just as a bit of unneeded revenge, she snapped her fingers silently, a few sparks falling from the cieling and landing in the woman's hair, lighting her aflame "heheh..."


I have an evil plot for Pixle's backstory, holy crap it's evolving quicker than I want it toooo

Deleted • 2 August 2012 at 5:26 PM

@inkstep Yesh!

Pixle shifted a bit, causing Charlie pausing his jumbled train of thought. Something was...off. The acrid stench of protien burining, caused the boy to turn on his heels. The commander's hair was aflame. His eyes glazed over, as he stood mortified. If she caught Pixle, no doubt she'd be killed. Charlie would not let that happen. The woman's eyes locked on the teens, the dark irises twitched ever so slightly. 'F---!' she shouted, sliding against the wall. She swatted at her burning head, howling in pain. 'These d--n force-feilds!' A twinkle glimmered in the bruttes eyes, the were safe... at least for now.

inkstep • 2 August 2012 at 5:32 PM

Smirking a bit, the girl nidded, her arms still wrapped around Charile's neck, she gave him a slight squeeze, her best attempt at a hug from her position. Holding back a full out laugh, she gave a bit of a snicker-giggle as she watched the woman try to put out the electric flame
@swimforlife hehehe

Deleted • 2 August 2012 at 5:41 PM

@inkstep

A throaty growl errupted from the military woman as she writhed in pain. Charlie paused for a moment, relishing the sceen occuring. He whispered to Pixle, 'I hate to do this, but its for the best.' He jerked his head down, causing a drizzle of water to come from the over head fire-estinguising nozzles that hand on most public places' ceilings. Grey smoke trails hovered above Luxx's head. 'D--n, d--n. I hate--' she cut herself off, 'Excuse me,' she adjusted her purple uniform and rubbed her gold pins. 'Forget this happened. If I hear a word of the breathed to another soul, I will hunt you down and skin you. In your sleep.' Charlie nodded silently and walked back to the cabinet.

inkstep • 2 August 2012 at 5:46 PM

mh..." Lowering her head, the girl bit her lip, shaking her head, it wasnt worth it to annoy the woman anymore, but something about her brought up the thoughts of labratoreis and prisons, torture and pain, she didnt know anything about her and she felt like she hated her instantly. Giving Charlie another Squeeze, Pixle let out a bit of a puppy-ish whimler, keeping her eyes locked on the woman.
@swimforlife I have to go for a while now, I'll miss you!!

Deleted • 2 August 2012 at 5:53 PM

@inkstep See you tomorrow for a last hurrah.

Charlie sensed Pixle's discomfort; he attempted to cran his neck enough to look her in the eyes. A hug was impossible from his position, so he settled for squeezing her hand then kissing the back of it. 'Whatever's on your mind...I'm here. Always will be, no matter how far we stray. I will find you. I love you. We're family.' The last bit, sent a tingle in Charlie's chest. His love for any one being had never been this strong. He didn't care if he looked like a love-sick puppy. Pixle was more important that anything else in his upside-down world. Nuzzling his cheek to hers, he sighed. Pixle's attention was now locked on the commander. God, he hated that woman's guts. They were probably rotten anyways.

inkstep • 2 August 2012 at 6:11 PM

@swimforlife I think I can pin in a few more posts
and XD nice way of putting it

The girl smiled a bit, planting a quick peck on his head, she felt a bit better at the boy's words, despite both of them knowing how they felt for each other, she still felt like a fith grader around a life long crush. Her stomack did a bit of a flip at his last words, causing her to shudder. She locked her attention back on the woman and sneered, killing ehr multipul times in her head

Deleted • 2 August 2012 at 6:15 PM

@inkstep It is a nice way to put it^^ *happeh dance*

Eyes flittering back on the woman momentarily, Charlie read the anger and hatred in her face. It was something he could quite put a finger on. Could she see thorugh the cherade? 'So,' he said, focusing on the closet in front of them. The panels seemed to loom above their heads like an impassible gateay. 'Think we should explore the Wardobe? Maybe we'll find Narnia!' he joked, hoping to lighten the situation.

inkstep • 2 August 2012 at 6:30 PM

@swimforlife yes it is XD

The small albino latched onto his back let out a snicker before speaking "Well why not, an escape from this place is worth any price" she muttered with a nervous grin.

Deleted • 2 August 2012 at 6:42 PM

@inkstep

'As long as the price isn't you,' he quickly added, before turning back to the case. The handle felt warm under his hand, if it was a trap, it would all be his fault. With a quick twist of his wrist, Charlie revealed several leather whips and a few metal ones, hanging from nylon straps. 'Woah,' Charlie breathed, admiring the sheer craftsmanship of the handles. 'What everone you pick is sure to fit you!'

inkstep • 2 August 2012 at 6:44 PM

@swimforlife last post before I go

A blush took it's firm hold on her cheeks as he spoke. Lowering her head some, her eyes lit up at the array of weapons, smirking some, she picked the first one her eyes locked on to, a long, thin, metal whip with multipul barbs and hooks woven into the intricate pattern. The handel looked to have a snake wrapped around it, and the frayed ends hid a popper lined with spare wires. "that one?" she muttered, nodding to the weapon of her choice and praying inside that they wouldnt get caught

Deleted • 3 August 2012 at 10:26 AM

@inkstep

'That one,' Pixle had said, gesturing to a metal whip. A serpentine handle and barbs through the body of the whip created a deadly auora around the weapon. Nodding, Charlie's eyes smiled more than his mouth did. 'Prefect,' he whipered to the girl, 'It's perfect.'

Last post before I go...

Love you, Ink. More than swimming, HomeStuck and Kombucha.

concordiuum • 4 November 2013 at 6:08 PM

@inkstep

If Pixle is schizophrenic...could all this be a hallucination or series of disjointed visions?
