Ch.20, Quick Thinking
Charlie watched as he stepped over her, she covered her mouth to slow her breathing.
"I'm tired of playing games Charlie," sighed Grievous.
Charlie backed into the shadows.
Grievous started searching the shadows for her, "Come out Charlie!"
He growled and started attacking everything. His light saber cut at the floor, Charlie yelled as the sparks hit her.
Grievous stopped now knowing where she was, "I know you're there Charlie!" he sliced at the floor again.
Charlie ran along under the floor to avoid him, "oww!" she mumbled as her foot was caught between some pipes and she fell over.
Grievous continued to cut away above her, "Hello Charlie!" he reached down and picked her up by her caught foot.
"I would say thanks but I know I'm going to regret this later on," she breathed hanging up side down.
"That you are!" he said coldly and walked off with her.
"Just what are you going to do?"
Grievous gave her a side ways look, "Beat you." He said firmly.
He reached a torture room of the ship and chained her to the wall. He raised a hand back to hit her.
Charlie thought fast, "Don't hit me father!" she cried closing her eyes.
Grievous froze "What did you call me?"
Charlie opened an eye, "Father?"
Grievous cocked his head, "One more time!"
"I called you father," she then opened both her eyes.
Grievous dropped his hand, "I'm not hallucinating."
"No you're not. I called you father." She breathed.
Grievous still in shock, "Why did you call me that?"
"Umm… I really don't know," she whined.
"This isn't some plot to get out of being beaten is it?" he asked crossing his arms behind his back.
"Yes and no. but I really don't know why I called you that," she pleaded.
"Are you going to keep calling me that?" asked Grievous.
"Till you do something to me that takes it away!"
Grievous freed her from the chains, "Keep calling me that!"
"All the time?" she groaned.
"Why not?" asked Grievous.
"Cause… it just will be… silly!"
Grievous helped her to her feet, "No it won't!"
"Yes it will," said Charlie then she stuck her tongue out at him.
Grievous grabbed it, "Don't stick that out at me!"
"Oww! ET O!" Charlie cried.
Grievous released it.
Charlie glared at him and held her mouth.
"What?" he asked.
Charlie walked away crossing her arms refusing to speak to him.
"I'm sorry," he said following her.
Charlie continued and still didn't talk to him.
Grievous then poked her in the side.
Charlie growled and started to run off to get away.
Grievous grabbed her arm, "Oh no you don't!"
Charlie grunted and tried to pull free.
He then picked her up.
"Put me down! I can walk my bloody self!" she yelled.
"I knew I could get you to talk to me" he laughed.
Charlie tried to wiggle out of his arms, "Let me go!"
"I don't think so," he said as he cocked his head to the side.
"Why?"
"Cause I don't feel like it!"
"Why?" she grinned.
"Stop the question why!" he started to get annoyed.
"Why?"
"Because I'm going to hurt you if you don't!"
"Cause?"
"You're giving me a head ache!" groaned Grievous.
"You are a head ache!"
"So are you!"
"Where are you taking me?" she asked.
"Somewhere!"
"Are you going to hurt me?"
"Maybe!"
"What are you going to do?"
"Be mysterious."
"I mean if you do punish me!" glared Charlie.
"Spank you!" he glared back.
"No you won't!" she hissed.
"Want to bet?"
Charlie grabbed both of his hands before he could separate them.
Grievous cocked his head and separated his arms knowing she couldn't hold them.
"OWW! That hurt!" she whined.
"I can't help that." He said as he placed her over one of his knees.
Charlie somehow managed to wiggle out and got away, "Shit!" she took off running, "No you don't!"
"Yes I will!" he laughed and chased after her.
Charlie knocked something over behind her, Grievous however, kicked it and it knocked Charlie's feet from out under her, "OWW!"
she yelled as she hit the floor, she sat up and backed away from him.
"Got you now!" he shook his head and picked her up, "You've been a bad girl Charlie!" he then proceed to spank her.
She grabbed a pole and started beating him on the head, "Don't you dare!"
"That doesn't hurt," he laughed.
Charlie rammed it through one of his chest opening's, "Bet that did!" she hissed.
Grievous grabbed the pole and started coughing while Charlie hauled ass.
"Get back here Charlie!" he coughed then pulled the pole out and took off after her.
Charlie ran into a dead end, "Crap!" she breathed.
Grievous's shadow covered her. Charlie gulped as she slowly turned around she found him towering over her.
"Got you!" he hissed as he picked up and spanked her hard.
"OWW!" Charlie screamed and twisted around so her front faced him.
"Now, why did you do that?" he asked coldly.
"So you can't do that anymore!" she cried then remembered the light saber burns on her stomach and she grabbed her stomach.
"I'm not going to do that again." He sighed.
"You've lied before!" she cried.
"I won't."
"I don't believe you!"
"I won't!" he hissed at her.
"I don't believe you… y-you monster!" she yelled at him.
Grievous let her go and started walking off.
Charlie picked up a pole and chucked it at him. Hitting the back of his head, "Don't you walk away!" she yelled as she fell to her knee's from exhaustion.
He turned around and looked at her, "Why not? Isn't that what you do?"
Charlie mumbled something under her breath as she grabbed her stomach and then started coughing.
Grievous walked back to her, "Are you alright?"
Charlie coughed up a red mixture of blood and spit.
Grievous quickly grabbed her up and ran to the medical wing with her.
See she didn't get hurt to bad, please reveiw.
