Chap 2: The Ink Machine
The eerie and creepy feeling grew with each step I took looking for Henry. At this point I was fast walking to the point I was panting like I was running (I can't run so, I fast walk or power walk which ever you prefer to see it) I swore I could feel someone's eyes were watching me with every step I took of course all these Bendy cut outs and paintings all over the building did little to help " HENRY WHERE ARE YOU!" I asked. Of course there was no response up until I came across an old tape recorder. I pressed it and a man's voice came through the speakers the speaker was a man named Wally Franks I'm guessing another animator.
At this point, I don't get what Joey plan is for this company. The animations sure aren't being finished on time anymore. And I really don't see why we need this ink machine its messy, noisy, and who needs that much ink anyways? Also get this, Joey had each one of us donate something from our work stations . ( I look down at the bendy doll in my hand) We put them on these pedestals in the break room. To help please the gods Joey says. Keep things going. I think he's lost his mind, but hey, he writes the checks but I tell you what if one more pipe bursts, I'm out of here!
The type stopped with a click and an eerie silence filled the room again " Man this Joey Drew sounded nuts, its obvious he was a hard core believer in gods either that, or he needed a life." I said. Oh well at least now I know how to find Henry and what the dolls for. I didn't really know where I was going so, I just followed the hallway until I heard a catchy tune coming from one of the rooms I couldn't help but giggle at the sight of Henry dancing to the song that was playing over an old radio. " Having fun Henry?" I asked him. He jumped and turned around, he was so into the song he didn't hear me come up behind him. He just blushed bright read, giggled embarrassed and scratched back of his head. " Henry." I said getting serious. ' I think we should leave now." Why?" He asked. " This place just creeps me out plus I feel like we're being followed." I said.
He just looked at me like I was nuts " The atmosphere must be getting to you with all these Bendy cut outs everywhere, come on I'm going to turn the Ink machine on you should come with me." He said. I was offended that he thinks I'm crazy but, I knew or at least some part of me thought that he was right maybe the feeling of this room was getting to me. " I have everything other than a doll." He said. " you mean this plushy?" I asked holding up the cute doll. " Yea that's it, let's go." He said, taking it.
We both went into the former break room where sure enough pedestal's where lined up with pictures of what we needed to use to start the machine. There was a book called the illusions of living written by Joey Drew himself, a wrench, a record, a jar of ink, and of course the small Bendy doll. "I have a bad feeling about this." I thought, putting the doll in its place. " Okay now we just need to get the pressure system running somehow there should be a switch nearby." Henry said. To be honest at this point I couldn't tell if he was talking to himself, me or both but nonetheless I followed him anyway after all he knew this place I didn't. Eventually, we made it to another movie screening room only when you turned on the projector it showed bendy dancing on the screen.
" Henry wait!" I said stopping his hand as he was about to push the ink flow button. " Maybe we shouldn't turn this on I have a feeling that their was a reason it was shut off." And I think you have been watching to many anime and ghost shows honestly its just a switch what could happen?" He asked clearly annoyed. " hello everyone knows that for one and two something is just telling me not to so it!" I said getting equally annoyed. He didn't listen as he pushed the button " Come on and when we get home I am having a long talk about you're talk young lady." He said, stomping away. " What I'm a six I'm 27 for crying out loud what are they going to do?" I asked. The walk was silent after that we made it to the Ink machine room again only to find it mysteriously boarded up.
' Who did this I thought this place was abandoned?" Henry asked. The bad feeling in my stomach increased to the point where I felt sick as we went towards the room that was flooded with Ink. We peeked in where suddenly a horrifying creature appeared in the doorway trying to grab us. I was so surprised I let out a scream and fell on my butt my crunches going down in an splashy bang as ink from the room flooded the hallway floors. Even though it was very brief I saw that it was a tall ink creature with Bendy's body only more terrifying and ink had covered his eyes.
" We're getting the hell out of here!" Henry screamed holding me bridle style in his arms. I didn't care about my crunches that were quickly being left behind you can replace those any day you're life you can't. I couldn't help but look back through my terrified, tear filled eyes as I saw the creator appear again but unlike Henry who it was glaring at he gave me a sorry look or at least I think he did it was hard to tell with the ink on his face. We ran towards the exit my face buried in his neck from fright, shaking, and tears steaming down my face. Henry ran as fast as he could through the hallways which, where filling up with Ink making it hard to run we had made it to the far end of the room, closer to the exit, relief filled us as freedom was just a step a head then, unfortunately, just as we were about to get to the door the floor caved in from the pressure of the Ink, and we fell in.
