Authoress' notes: Stay tuned at the end for an important announcement!
Reviews:
Pink Fox Productions: Yup! I love family reunions!
LouiseTheLastWriter: Somebody reeeeally ships Grendy (I guess that's the official name now XD).
Guest: Yeah, those butcher freaks creep me out!
Anywho, on to the horrors! I own nothing, and sorry that this chapter's so short, school caught up with me.
The ink demon, the wolf, the animator, the cultist, and the angel silently descended back to Bendy's sanctuary. When they all got there Sammy quietly closed the door while Bendy began searching through a cluttered desk.
"This place is clean." Grace muttered sarcastically while looking for a dry place to sit. There was only one chair, and it looked decayed with ink. Then again, so did everything else in this studio.
"When are we leaving?" Henry asked.
"As soon as I can find Joey's book." Was Bendy's reply.
"Why?"
"It has the spells in there, it might be useful later."
Henry huffed. "Well, just so you know we aren't going to be doing any rituals at my house."
"Yeah, mom would freak." Grace added.
"Mom's going to freak out anyway when we get home." Henry gave Grace "the look." "Where does your mother think you are?"
Grace shifted her weight. "Uh... at school?"
"And how long have you been gone?"
"... A couple hours?"
Henry groaned. "Grace, I love you, but sometimes I think your mother is right that you're too much like me."
Grace chuckled nervously. "Well-"
"Why did you come here?!" Henry scolded. "Your mother is without a doubt pulling her hair with worry, this isn't a place for a young lady! I know you want to help, but all you've done is give Linda two people to worry about!"
Grace was visibly hurt by this. He lowered her head in shame as she blinked back her tears. "I-I'm sorry, dad."
Henry sighed. "I know, I know... Grace, I know that you just want to help, I love that you want to help people, but delibertly putting yourself in danger isn't going to help anyone."
Grace nodded.
Softer this time, Henry again asked, "Why did you come here?"
Grace was silent for a moment. She jut stood there, her thoughts storming inside her. This was a bad habit of hers, burying her emotions until she burst.
"Grace? Please..."
"..."
"Grace, I know that look. Keeping it in isn't going to help-"
"PEOPLE WERE SAYING THAT YOU LEFT US!" Grace screamed, startling everyone. "Everyone in town was saying that you left town because you didn't care!"
That was when Grace started crying. Sammy was at a lose of what to do, as was Bendy. Henry seemed paralyzed for a moment before gently embracing his daughter.
"I'm sorry... I really am..." Grace whimpered. Bendy wanted to hug her, but he doubted Henry would take that well.
"Sh... it's okay, it's okay..." Having his daughter face him, he said, "Mark my words, Grace. I will never, ever, leave you and your mom and sister. You three are my treasures and I will always be with you all until I'm buried."
Grace nodded, giving a weak smile. "I know... I just..."
Grace didn't need to finish. "I understand." Henry said.
Bendy watched the moment carefully. Grace was a tender creature, but a caring one too. In the past, Bendy would have thought of that as pathetic, but now...
Seriously, what is wrong with me?!
"Sammy." Bendy whispered.
"Yes, My Lord?"
"Remind me to ask you about the ritual, I think it did something to my brain." Bendy stared at Grace while he spoke.
"What do you mean? Is it good or bad?"
"I don't know, just remind me, okay? I want to know if there are anymore weird side effects."
Sammy was puzzled by his lord's remarks, but even more so by the way he looked at Grace. Why would Bendy be concerned about-
Oh.
Sammy actually had to hold back a snort when the realization hit him. Of all things to psychologically happen to Lord Bendy, this was not what he expected. Yup, ol' Sammy really screwed up this time.
I just hope it doesn't end bad for Miss Brookes.
Shortly after Bendy found the book, the five of them trekked to the back entrance of the studio, which was the same one Grace used to enter it. As soon as they got to the door, Bendy, Boris, and Sammy stopped walking.
"What's wrong?" Grace asked.
"The curse keeps us contained in the studio. I don't know if it's broken or not." Sammy mumbled.
"Okay, what if it is?"
"Then were all trapped."
Grace and Henry's eyes widened with alarm. "All of us?" Henry asked.
Sammy nodded. "You two have been tainted by the ink. But then again the ritaul may have been able to fix that problem-"
Suddenly Boris ran strait for the door, pushed it open, and ran outside.
"Oh, well, I guess that answers that question." Said Sammy.
Authoress' note: Yo guys, Joanfenny here! Sorry for the wait, lot's been happening in life. School suuuuucks, ya know? Anywho, this is the big anouncement:
This is the end of the fanfic-
(Suddenly a white-gloved hand grabs my ancle and pulls me up upside down)
Bendy: WHATDYA MEAN THIS IS THE END OF THE FANFIC?!
Me: W-Whoa Whoa Bendy, let me explain-
Bendy: No, I'll explain somethin' to ya, ya dumb dora! Do ya know how hard it is to find a fanfic for my fandom that sticks to the end-
Me: Now Bendy, d-don't be mad-
Bendy: DON'T BE MAD?! O-O-OH, I'M NOT MAD, I'M JUST GONNA TEAR YA APART FOR ENDING THIS STORY BEFORE I COULD HAVE SOME QUALITY TIME WITH MY ANGEL-
Grace: (Enters the room) Bendy?
Bendy: O-oh, uh- hi angel, w-we were just talking...
Grace: Why are you holding the Authoress upside down?
Bendy: ... No reason.
Grace: Bendy, I'm not one of those dumb blonds you see in typical horror movies. Put Joanfenny down now.
Me: (snicker) we both know you'll do as she says.
Bendy: (sigh) fine...
(Puts me down)
Me: Oh man, blood's rushing out of my head. Alright, so as I was saying, this fanfic ends here, but that doesn't mean the story will end! Oh no, we're just getting started! Despite what I've said in the past, I am having fun with this Grendy ship-
Grace: huh?
Me: U-Uh... nothing to concern yourself with Grace! As I was saying, this story's still gonna pop up here, but as a different title! I love the story I'm working on here, but in my opinion it looks kinda rushed. So I'm gonna polish it up a bit. Since school takes up most of my time, I won't be able to post as often, but my goal is one chapter a month.
But I want to give a big thanks to all you shippers that stuck around! Especially PinkFoxProducations, LouiseTheLastWriter, Twins 'n Fandoms, and Dancing-Ink-Demon. You reviews really made my day, and I hope the reboot meets your expectations!
So until next time, remember to follow, favorite, and review- wait, where's Bendy and Grace?
Grace (from a distance) Bendy stop caring me around!
Bendy: Nope!
