Maybe turning around to see if 'Bendy' is still chancing after him while running at full speed wasn't Henry's best idea. But wasn't his fault that wall appeared out of nowhere! ...Okay maybe it was kinda his fault for not looking where he's going but now isn't the time for this! Because now that Henry had woken up after the surprise hug with the wall he noticed a few things he that had him worried.
First, both of his shoes are missing. Second, his pants are ripped beyond repair and it really sucks because it's his favourite pair. And lastly he is tied to a pole, again. Which should have been his first and only worry but damn it, he is wet and cold thanks to all the ink and he just save Boris and to go home, is that too much to ask for?
No time to worry about his clothes now because 'Bendy' just walked into the room and he looks like the cat that got the cream, the cream being Henry himself. "Good morning, Henry. Have you slept well?" 'Bendy' ask in his distorted voice, his ever present grin seems widen than usual.
"As well as a guy can after running into a wall and wake up tied to a pole." Henry narrow his eyes as he watch 'Bendy' closely. "What are you going to do to me?"
"It has been a long time since we were able to talk face to face like this." 'Bendy' ignored Henry's question. "Not since you left me for your parents!" He hissed in anger as he punch a hole through the wall.
"What..." Henry's eyes widen in shock as the truth dawn, the only person who was upset that he left to take care of his parents was, "Joey?" His best friend who he came all the way here to meet.
"But it's alright. Everything is alright now, you're never going to leave me ever again." The ink demon grin widely as he walk closer to Henry and stroke his cheek, leaving behind a trail of ink. "I have finally perfected it, the art of turning humans into Toons." He takes out a bottle filled with something black and bubbling. "See this, Henry? I made it just for you, all this is for you. Soon we will have the perfect Toon life we always wanted!"
"Joey...this isn't what I wanted!" Henry can't help the tears that is flowing down his face. "What you did...it isn't right! You can't play with people's lives like that!" He yelled as he pull on the rope holding him.
"I admit, I had to sacrifice quite a few of our coworkers to perfect it but in the end it was worth it." Joey grab Henry's chin and force him to face him. "And you can fix us all! Make us perfect! No one can draw like you!"
"I can't fix this, Joey! I don't know how!" Henry close his eyes tightly as he tries his best to not break down. "I'm sorry, I should have tried harder to make you understand, to work harder to stay in contact with you! Maybe if I had none of this would have happened..."
"Shh...it isn't your fault, it's your parents. They always hated the fact you're working as an animator. They can't see just how great of a Cartoonist you are so they tricked you away from here to move back in with them as a good son you are you move back to take care of them." Joey growled at the thought of Henry's parents. "But they won't be able to take you away once you drink this." He hold the bottle up to Henry's lips.
Henry seal his lips tightly as he shake his head, he isn't going to drink it even if Joey torture him.
Joey growled warningly. "Drink it." He push the bottle against Henry's lips and try to force his mouth open.
Henry turn his head to the side violently, making the liquid spill all over his shirt.
Joey rawr in anger. "How dare you!" He raise his hand and Henry close his eyes to brace himself from the hit that is coming but the hit never came. Joey chuckle darkly as he lower his hand. "Oh Henry, I've forgotten how stubborn you can be." He gently stroke Henry's cheek before cutting the rope holding Henry in place and grabbing him before he can run. "Let me show you what happens if you disobey me." He said as he drag Henry out of the room.
"Let me go, Joey!" Henry yelled as he tries to struggle free.
Joey ignore Henry as he drag him into another room where Boris is tied down to a table. "Look what I got from that crazy angel, Henry! Boris in one piece! But he won't be for long if you don't listen to me." He grinned widely. "You're precious to me, Henry. I can never hurt you, but Boris here on the other hand...he is replaceable." He chuckle darkly.
Henry paled when he saw the unconscious wolf in front of him. "I-I'll drink it. Just please don't hurt him..." He said softly as he turn away.
"I know you'll see things my way." Joey hand the bottle to Henry, he trust that he'll drink it on his own.
Henry accepts the bottle with shaky hands. He close his eyes tightly and take a deep breath. "You can do this, Henry. Do it for Boris." He mattered softly and chug down the liquid before his body has the time to reject it. He gasp in pain as the liquid does its job. He drop the bottle as he fall onto his knees and wrap his arms around himself, screaming in pain as his body is forcefully changed.
Joey watch as his best friend grow smaller until he is small enough to fit comfortably in his arm. His human skin turn into ink and devil's tail grow until it is long enough for Henry to curl around his head if he wants.
Henry had passed out from the pain not long into the chance, which is too bad because he can't see how wonderful he turned out. He is smaller than the Bendy he used to draw and he has a tail but other then that he is the exact copy of the dancing demon.
Joey pick Henry up and hold him gently in his arms. "You're perfect, Henry. I know you don't see it my way but I promise you will. I'll make sure of it." He said softly as he carry him to the room he had prepared. "We belong together, Henry. And no one will ever tear us apart again, I will kill anyone who tries."
