They say hindsight has 20/20 vision..... In Vaggie's defense, she's missing an eye, PLUS she's been meaning to work up an immunity to Charlie's puppy eyes. AND for their so called "fun day" for the residents and patients of the Hotel to participate in was from Adam himself to suggest.... Axe throwing.
They decided to do it simple: ten throws each, highest score wins, and the grand prize, after almost half an hour of Angel whining that there SHOULD be a prize, was the ability to abstain from having to do one chore of the winner's choosing for an entire week. It... actually started rather nice. Trash talking was abundant almost immediately, but there was enough of a friendly edge to the words and teases that Charlie and Vaggie honestly didn't mind too much. Adam was at the lead for a bit, who knew he could THROW axes instead of just swinging his and Husk was... oddly enough catching up. Must've been his years throwing his razor cards.
Bendy was able to get JUST below Vaggie in ranks, followed by Cherri, then Ren, then Angel, then Lobo, then Sera, Carmilla, Niffty, and finally Charlie, who was very solidly at the bottom of the scoreboard. She had enough strength, but lacked the dexterity needed to aim correctly, with her axe at first over-shooting the target so much it nearly left the property, or bouncing off the board as the handle made contact while one even implanted itself in Bendy's arm... Good thing her husband has toon force, huh?
Overall, things went well as Charlie took her final toss at the board to end the game. As happy as she was to see that her axe had not only remained stuck in the wood but within the target as wel.... if only the outer most ring.... you'd think she'd won the entire competition. When she literally skipped over to the wall to collect her axe, Vaggie had been so distracted by how happy and cute she looked, that she completely missed the conversation happening right next to her until it was too late.
Niffty: Hey, Mr Adam!!!
Adam: *yelps* AH, SHIT! Oh... It's you. What up, Stabby McGabekiller?
Niffty: Since the game's over, can I have your bigger axe to play with?! *akes eye bigger* PWEASE~?
The former general was about to decline, but... the eye... That accursed eye his former captain was subjected to. If Adam didn't know about her murder charges or psychosis, he'd think using that look for blackmail and extortion was why Niffty was in Hell.
Adam: I.... Well... MAYBE for a few minutes.
He then takes out his trademark holy axe, the size of it being twice of the tiny cyclops as she took it and let out a spine-chilling gleeful cackle, before she started spinning with it like she was doing a hammer throw.
Bendy: Uh, is that safe?
Adam: Relax, the thing's like double her weight! There's no way she can actually do anything with my axe, Benj-
Suddenly, the small sinner let the blade loose, sending it flying over the ground and straight towards the target wall... Where Charlie was just turning around from retrieving her own axe.
Bendy: CHARLIE, LOOK OUT!!!!
Vaggie: No, no, no, no, NO ES MI PRINCESA!!!!!!!
Everyone seemed to scream the same thing as the weapon flew through the air. Vaggie spread her wings to try and fly over to push Charlie away, but it was too late as the princess' eyes went wide before she quickly dropped, the large axe sinking into the wood Lobo had knocked down and Ren carved into the targeting board, causing it to fall backwards.
Charlie: Whoo- ha -That was close! I.... *gets up* I think I'm okay...
Vaggie: Charlie! Charlie, oh baby, you-
Charlie: I'm okay, Vee-Vee, I promise. Look, I'm okay.... Hey, is anyone else feeling lighter all of a sudden?
And THAT... Was when everyone saw the extent of Niffty's little shenanigan.
