Charlie Burkhall | Brooklyn, Repo Duty
Opening his backpack, Charlie slipped on a pair of gloves and continued his investigation of the kitchen. Of the four Sewer Rats members, Jacob knew that one of them specialised in not-so-safe chemicals. Carefully looking around for a moment more, Charlie made an educated guess that most of the chemicals were illegal, taking note of whatever he could and photographing the evidence on his phone. Only halfway through, his acute cat ears suddenly perked up, pointing in the direction of some suspicious noise. Craning his head upwards, Charlie tries to recall the building's layout, "That almost sounded like someone falling over, or maybe stomping. Either way it was coming from upstairs."
For a brief moment, Charlie simply stood idly in place, contemplating over whether or not he should check it out. Shaking out his nerves, Charlie thickened his scales and left the kitchen, heading for the stairs leading to the second floor; his padded feet making each step oddly quiet. It wasn't very far, presumably only needing thirty or so seconds to reach at his current pace. Serge and Artemis were still on the first floor with him, meaning Harold and Szarlota were upstairs. Charlie smiled, imagining one of his squadmates falling flat on their face, something he could easily tease them for. Unfortunately, now was not the time for jokes.
