As Ace was flying the plane over the Pacific Ocean, he looked at Penny and mentally sighed. The nubian woman was still upset at him for what happened earlier that night before they had gotten on the plane. He had TRIED to make it up to her It wasn't his fault that his friend called him up to tell him that she was getting engaged. After all, she couldn't really begrudge him for his friend being so happy and wanting to tell someone could she? "Look, girly, I'm sorry about what happened, K? But Alex, she's my friend yo. And she's happy about getting to know this guy and get with him okay? Can you really be mad at her for likin someone?"
Penny sighed and looked at the dashboard of the plane she was sitting in. Truth be told, she wasn't angry at Ace or his friend Alex, she was just upset that she lost her chance to get some from Ace when both of them were in the mood. "Look, Kevin, I'm just upset about last night. It was just bad timing is all."
Ace nodded at that, the African American pilot turned back to his controls as he flew across the Pacific Ocean. True, the Osprey he owned could practically fly itself, he still liked to be in control of the controls. However, something was knawing at the back of his mind. Something that was telling him that was TERRIBLY important. "Say Penny? Girl?"
"Hmm?" The black haired nubian woman looked at him as her boyfriend seemed deep in thought. "What is it Kevin?"
"Isn't Charlie in the back of the plane?"
Penny nodded slowly at that, wondering why he was asking, Ace knew that Charlotte was in the back of the plane. "Yes what of it?" She blinked when Ace turned a stark white. "Kevin?"
"Girl! I just remembered! Charlotte's in the back, I have PEANUTS in the back! A LARGE CRATE of PEANUTS!"
Penny's eyes practically popped out of their skull as that little bit of information sank into her head. "OH SHIT!"
"We GOTTA check this out!" Ace exclaimed and quickly looked over the controls and pushed a few buttons to set the plane to go on auto-pilot, then he and Penny quickly ran to the back of the plane, only to see Charlotte have a slightly round belly as she ate and ate and ate bag after bag after bag of peanuts. All without removing the nuts from their bags!
Penny groaned and glared at Charlotte. "CHARLOTTE!"
The Harpy in question stopped what she was doing and turned around to face Penny and Ace. "Hi Penny! These Peanuts are good! Want some?"
Penny shook her head, hair flying all over the place as she was shaking her head so fast that Ace was afraid that his girl would get whip-lash. The nubian woman took a deep breath and spoke. "At LEAST take them out of the bag first Charlotte."
The Harpy blinked and nodded at that. "Okie dokie!" She then ripped the next bag open, dumped the contents into her mouth and swallowed them, unfortunately, she also swallowed the open bag.
"ARRGH!" Penny felt like ripping her hair out.
Ace shook his head and looked at the Harpy patiently. "Charlotte, stop it. I gots to get us down soon and I don't want youse to be sick when we land okay? So please stop eating them."
Penny looked at Charlotte sternly, well, as sternly as she ever looked at the silver haired Harpy. "Remember the last time? With the stomache pump?"
Charlotte's eyes widened at that. She remembered how PAINFUL it was when her tummy was pumped of its contents. "NO! I DON'T WANT THAT! PLEASE DON'T HAVE THEM DO THAT TO ME!!"
Penny sighed and shook her head at her bodyguard's wailing. "Well, don't eat so many! If you don't gorge yourself, the doctors won't have to use a somache-pump!"
Ace nodded and spoke up. "Charlie, just digest the food for a bit, wait about ten minutes, THEN go back to eating them okay? But take them OUT of the baggies first okay?"
Penny nodded at Ace's words, they both knew that trying to stop Charlie from eating peanuts was impossible. Maybe if they could slow her down, it would be just as good. "Please?"
Charlotte blinked and nodded at that. "Um, okay."
Penny sighed in relief at hearing that. "Good!" She and Ace went back to the front. "Remember Charlie, no eating any more peanuts, or you'll have to visit the doctor's office... And they'll pump your tummy!"
Charlotted nodded and cried out that she would be good. Really good! Unfortuantely, Charlotte had such a limited amount of patience. Waiting even two minutes was entirely too long for her.
The Harpy started to cry at not being able to touch the salted goodness just in front of her. "WAH I need PEANUTS!" She sniffled and looked at them, her stomache then grumbled, demanding some food. 'Oh, I hope Penny doesn't mind, but I'm SO hungry!'
*Snarf! Gobble! CHOMP!*
