SophiaxHugo Fan: Thanks! It's really hard to be somewhat original with these two, but I can always just think for a moment and come up with more like this original of mine. As for the M rating, idk I just did something random. I'll have it changed before this chapter is uploaded. And I have seen the trailer for Chapter 3. The hype is real. Also, writer's block is an issue.

Never had she been afraid of him in all her life. He changed from the once happy, annoying, cute, adorable, mischievous demon he once was, into a dark, terrifying, horrific, dangerous toon with a murderous agenda.

The animators left them here, the toons... It was shortly after SillyVision, as an animation studio, had collapsed.

It upset Bendy. Of course Alice and Boris were upset as well, but Bendy took it harder than they did. Joey, Henry... they were abandoned by their creators.

Eventually the Ink Machine malfunctioned and some places were flooded with ink. And some held the most... unsettling... of things... in some puddles.

Alice and Boris stayed close to each other most of the time. Boris kept trying to calm Bendy, but it seemed to be of no use.

Then, one day, Boris disappeared. Alice was scared as she looked around for him, hoping to not run into Bendy. Then she heard what appeared to be Bendy yelling in anger and sadness.

As much as she wished to ignore it, the feeling in her chest told her to go see him. The loud yelling got closer as she headed down a long hallway. She saw Bendy on his knees and Boris tied to a table. She couldn't belp but scream in horror.

His chest was cut open, his ribs revealing a wrench.

Bendy turned around and saw her. "A-aLiCE..." His voice was low and she looked down to him. "B-BoRIs... He'S..."

"B-Bendy... I-I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to--" He suddenly lunged her way and she held her arms up and attempt to protect herself. She felt two arms wrap around her and she feared the worst.

"I... I'm glad... you're safe..." That same voice from years ago. "I will protect you." Aaaaaaand back to the creepy voice. She hugged him back regardless.

"Why?" She had to ask.

"I'll protect the ones I love." Heat rushed to her face at his statement, but she didn't mind.

I want to thank you all for the support of my short stories of shipping these two. More to come (after a long week of Volleyball. We'll see how creative I can get.)
