Chapter one: I'm Alice angel!

"uungh…" Joey had just woken up. "it's time for work again." He said. He got up and got into his wheelchair and started heading out. When he got outside, he met up with Suzie who was there to help him get to work today. The two chatted as they walked. Well, more as she walked and he was wheeled along. They'd decided to include Alice in today's production and Suzie was excited to get to work. Today was the day they'd record lines, tomorrow they'd begin drawing up the storyboard and after that, they'd begin animation. Secretly, Joey had started work on another project. He wasn't going to live forever, and when he died, so would bendy. He couldn't allow that to happen but in order to fix it, he had to be able to walk again. They arrived at the studio to find it bursting with life. Joey saw henry, one of his best friends and one of his highest regarded people. "henry!" Joey screamed happily, "good to see you! Ready for another day of work?"

"Joey…" henry responded. "that's what I wanted to talk about…"

"why, Henry, whatever do you mean?" Joey asked. "are you feeling alright?"

"I'm going off to do other things for a while Joey." He responded

"you mean… you're quitting on me?" Joey asked.

"no, no. not at all. I'll come back. I promise. I can't leave our characters to one mad man" he joked

"but how will I finish the project without you?" Joey asked

"you haven't even told me what it is yet, so it's hard for me to help you." Henry responded

"you swear you'll come back?"

"I swear. If after 30 years, I haven't, send me a letter, tell me what's going on and I swear I'll come back and visit." Henry said.

"I will Henry." Joey responded.

"See you soon Joey!"

"see ya henry"

Joey was upset about the setback but he had to keep working. There was nothing he could do considering he was limited in time to work on the machine.

He stared at the bendy drawing on henry's desk.

"no one is to ever touch anything on Henry's desk! It will stay as it is for when he comes back!"

"alright Joey, whatever you say" everyone responded.

Joey went off to his private room to get back to work.

He phoned down to Sammy Lawrence.

"hey Sammy, it's joey, do you have those blueprints again for the ink machine?"

"hi Joey, yes. I do have them. How do they keep getting here?"

"I'm not too sure. Can you bring them up to me please?"

"sure Joey, I'll be right there"

"thanks Sammy."

Joey sat and waited while staring at the bendy cut-out in the room that would become the ink machine room. A few minutes later, Sammy walked in.

"hey Joey, here are the blueprints."

"thanks, so much Sammy."

"any time Joey. Listen, I've got to get back to my department."

"okay. Off you go Sammy."

"bye Joey!"

"see ya later Sammy"

With the plans for his majestic machine in hand, he got back to work. It took him ten minutes to remember he was meant to be in the music department supervising the recording of Suzie's lines in ten more minutes. He called in one of his workers.

"yes, Mr Drew?" the worker asked.

"hey, I need to get to the music department. Can I get some help over here?"

"right away sir!" the employee responded.

The two headed towards Joey's way down. A special lift. Hidden away behind one of the staircases. It was behind Henry's desk. It only took him two minutes to reach the music department of Joey Drew studios.

"Suzie? Sammy? I'm not late, am I?"

"no Mr. Drew. Not at all. You're three minutes early actually! We're just testing the equipment to make sure it works." Sammy responded.

"oh, thank bendy." Joey responded.

"you've been acting a bit weird about bendy lately. You make him sound like some sort of omnipresent being. Almost like a god." Sammy pointed out.

"think nothing of it Sammy." Joey responded

"alright Mr. Drew" Sammy responded

The three minutes went by fast and Suzie quickly prepared to say her lines.

"hey bendy!" she said. "do you remember me?"

There was a pause for where bendy's character would shake his head.

"you're still half-asleep, aren't you bendy?" she said before pausing again for where bendy would nod.

"I'm Alice angel!" she reminded absolutely no one.

Another pause for where his character would blush and suddenly have a complete failure to make up for the fact he'd forgotten Alice.

The lines went on. It was done over and over for the next two hours. When Sammy said it was perfect, Joey returned to the ink machine room. He yet again looked over at his bendy cut-out.

"you know, sometimes I wish you were actually here. To work beside me on making your cartoons. To revolutionise the cartoon industry with living cartoon characters."

Little did Joey know, that would happen. Not in the way he'd intended though…

He kept working on the ink machine. It took him two years. Between that time, bendy became the most popular cartoon, Alice was more popular than bendy just as Suzie had predicted she could have been, and Boris was still just being a miserable waste of existence who tortured bendy in all the cartoons.

The ink machine was finally finished. Joey could see if it worked and what it did. If it was all fine, he could begin project bendy. The name of this project literally described what this project was. A chance to bring bendy into their world and work beside him as he'd planned two years before.

But all of that, is a story for another chapter of bendy and the ink machine: the thirty years between.
