Ivy opened the door of the car that Blake's siblings drove. "You sure we can't come with you?" Blake's brother asked.
"Aunt Diana will know I'm safe if you tell her so." Blake said. "Besides, Ivy didn't tell her Poppop."
"HEY!!" Ivy screeched.
"Fine." His older sister said. Once Jaidynn got out, the two drove away.
Ella and Jared ran up to the three. "Ivy, this is Jared Connor and Ella Stein."
"Good to meet ya, ma'am!" Jared said as ignored him Ivy entered the studio. "Sassy much?"
"Samuel? Lacie?" Ivy asked. "Lillian? Lukas?"
"Wallace? Jack?" Jaidynn asked as she followed behind.
"Susan? Norman?" Blake asked to one of the holes in the wall.
"Henry...?" Ella whispered.
"Thomas! Allison?" Jared asked as he stepped closer to the middle of the hall.
"What if this a prank?" Ella asked as she stopped. Everyone turned to her. "What if... Joey didn't send us the letter, but some rando school kids chose to mess with us... with the promise of our parents...?"
"No." Ivy said. "No! I know their down here! I just know it!" Jaidynn placed a hand on both of their shoulders. It comforted them, but deep down Ivy was worried.
"Ok, we'll spilt up. If anyone screams anything, we're high-tailing it out of here." Jared said as everyone nodded and spilt up.
There was a small craking sound before the floor collapsed under the five children and senting them into the darkness.

Ivy rubbed her eyes as she got up and looked to what was infront of the group. There was a tall, skinny devil. "AHHHHHHH!!" Ivy screamed. making the devil cover his invisable ears.
"Argh... Quiet, child!" The devil roared. Ivy screamed again as she looked at her arm, which had a large chain on it.
"Who... WHO ARE YOU?!" Ivy screeched as she tripped over one of her friends (ALIVE!) bodies.
"Why, young child... I'm Bendy!" Soon, the rest woke up. "If it ain't Ivy Lawrence! Oh? Ella Stein, too? Heh, even Blake Polk, Jared Connor, and Jaidynn Fain! Or is it Franks? So hard to tell!"
"Jaidynn. Neal. Fain. Franks." Jaiynn stated. "Remember it, demon! Before I d-" Ella covered Jaidynn's mouth.
"From everything I know, you demons mean trouble or a deal..." Jared said as he helpped Ivy to her feet.
"I do need some fun around here~" Bendy chuckled as he showed the area around the five children.
There was silence
"A deal." Ivy plainly mumbled.
"Oh?" Bendy said as he walked closer. "Speak up, Lawrence."
"A deal!" Ivy shouted. "I know you devils like a good deal, a good trade. How's about it?" Ivy looked at Bendy's ink covering his eyes.
Bendy paused, before saying. "Go on."
"This is like a game, prey and predator, If we can find our families, get them to trust us, and bring them to you, you'll set everyone free!" Ivy shouted as she got close to the demon.
"And if I win this "game"? What do I win?" Bendy asked in a tone that sent chills down the spines of the kids. "Your souls, perhaps?" Ivy walked back. "I suppose, I could set you free, but just you five~"
"Well..." Ivy held out her hand. "You too chicken?"
"A week. That's the time you get to find Laice, Thomas, Norman, Allison, Susie, Jack, Sammy, Lillia, Luke, Wally, and of course, Henry." Bendy grabbed her hand and shook it.
"Before we begin, give us a clue."
"Fine." Bendy whined as he walked around and undid the chains.
"Is Ivy the one to set the lost and angel free? Or will she fall to the wolf and crayfish and live with me~?" Ivy felt herself shiver as Bendy snapped, creating a portal under her feet. She screamed as she fell through and the portal fell shut.
"Jared, Jared, Jared, my dear! You have a wolf and an angel, there's nothing to fear~!" Jared screamed as, he too, fell through a portal.
"Blake, make no mistake. If these two die, their souls you'll break~" Another portal.
"Franks or Fain? So hard chose! Make sure you keep them, their easy to lose~" Gone.
"And me...?" Ella asked.
"You know where Linda is?" Ella nodded. "Then you'll have no trouble with this~!" Then, Ella disappeared through another inky portal.
