My Hero Eyeball Chambers

They froze.

The cobras had all sat around Ace's house. They were all clueless as to where Charlie had gone, even though they all had the small suspicion he had actually gone to Ophelia.

They'd tried feeding Eyeball and giving him as much water as they could, in the hopes of making him feel somewhat better. It didn't work, his pain wasn't the hangover anymore.

Ace knew he would kill Charlie whenever he came back. The shit had taken his car. Without permission.

They all sat around in silence, the TV showing some programme that none of them were actually paying attention to.

Eyeball was half in the kitchen, half lying outside. He'd been sick multiple times since. The others had tried helping him but as stubborn as he was, he kept refusing.

He was content in lying there, feeling sorry for himself as he shut his eyes, ready for the world to swallow him whole.

Ace watching him from the doorway as he sighed. Turning back to the others, who were all sat sulking around.

"Right get Eyeball. We're gonna go do something instead of moping around after a girl who clearly didn't give a shit." He snapped at them as they all slowly stood up and nodded.

Just as they were slipping their shoes on they heard a few thuds against Ace's front door. They all gave each other a confused look as Billy went over and opened it.

Just as he opened the door Charlie fell forward. Billy quickly reached out and caught him as he called out to the others.

They all surrounded him as they saw the now unconscious Charlie half lying in Billy's arms.

Vince and Fuzzy gave him a hand to carry Charlie into the living room as they all noticed the bruises forming on his face and arms and the dried blood by his nose and mouth. His normally blonde hair now with its own tint of red.

"Charlie! Wake the fuck up Charlie!" Billy shouted as he tried shaking the cobra awake.

They all began nudging him and trying to wake him up.

Eyeball managed to pull himself up as he grabbed another big glass of water from the kitchen but as he was about to drink he heard the familiar sounds of the others getting worked up.

He slowly hobbled into the lounge and saw the unconscious Charlie lying there, battered and bruised as the others tried to wake him up.

Eyeball groaned as he took a quick swig of the water before stepping closer and chucking the entire glass on Charlie's head, splashing the others.

Charlie instantly flung up, coughing and choking. Billy smiled, somewhat relieved his best friend was okay.

"Charlie! What the fuck happened?! Where were you?! Who did-" Billy's questions fired out like bullets from a gun.

"Ophelia..." Charlie managed to mumble out. "Xavier... wedding... hers..." his words croaked out.

"Say fucking what?" Eyeball growled out, hearing the words Xavier and wedding.

"He's gonna force her to marry him... kill her and get it all..." Charlie spluttered out breathless.

The cobras were silent. Eyeball clenched his fist so hard the glass smashed. They all turned to him and saw the murderous look on his face.

"Car keys." Ace demanded from Charlie, holding his hand out.

Charlie shook his head slightly. "He took them... made me run here..." He said as he dropped his head against the sofa and shut his eyes.

Eyeball didn't care he'd been sick more times than he could count. He didn't care he felt like the whole world was spinning. He didn't care he had barely any sleep.

In seconds he was forcing himself to run out the house. The others in tow of course. They quickly piled into Eyeball's car as he sped off towards his own house, attempting to drive in a straight line.

The others were all about to question him as he flung himself out the car and straight up to his house.

"The fuck is he doing?!" Ace snapped from the passenger side.

The others shrugged as Eyeball quickly came flying back out, his dads angry words following him.

He quickly shoved himself back in the car as he started it up and sped off.

"What the fuck was that?!" Ace snapped at him as he drove along, trying to concentrate.

Eyeball shrugged it off and kept silent as they all gave each other confused looks. Why the hell had he stopped at his dads when Ophelia clearly needed him?

In no time at all they pulled up outside Ophelia's. The car had barely stopped before Eyeball, once again flung himself out the car.

The others followed as he practically kicked the door down and burst in.

They froze.

Xavier was standing there in the hallway, the smile on his face more evil than Ace Merrill could do himself.

Kieran and Raphael stood by his side, they were both covered in blood. However by the smirks on their faces it was clearly not theirs.

Yet what really stopped Eyeball was the sight of her.

Ophelia just in front of Xavier, her face bruised as tears fell down her cheeks.

He had an arm around her.

And a gun held to her head.

"Well hey Chambers." He said sarcastically. "Have you met my new wife Ophelia?"
