Emily breathed as she, Alison, and Tom traveled through the studio.

"Are we almost there?" She pondered.

"Almost. But we have to be careful." Alison replied.

"Are there any stations near?" She asked.

Alison pointed to a nearby station in reply.

Emily felt relief fold over her like an oceans wave.

But her assurance didn't last.

For at that moment, ink veins appeared on the walls, a faint but noticeable heartbeat could be heard.

"H-He's here!" She cried out.

"Get to the station!" Alison exclaimed.

Emily did just that.

"Where are you demon?!" Alison said.

Emily watched through the slot in the station.

"So what? Not like we'd tell you!" Alison argued.

"Please be okay..."

Stacy reawakened in a small closet sized room, she found herself laying on a bed.

"W-What?" She remembered what happened. "Oh..."

Stacy stood up and walked to the main room, where she found Boris sitting.

"H-Hey Boris." She called.

He waved in response.

"Can you not speak?"

He sadly shook his head.

Stacy shrugged, she walked to the door that lead outside and noticed no lever.

"The lever is missing." She looked to the wolf. "He must have it.

She walked to Boris and sat down, "Hey Boris, have you seen that door lever around?"

He was about to answer when his stomach growled.

"Here, how about i make you something to eat, then i can have the lever?" Stacy said.

Boris thought about it and nodded.

"Lets see what we have."

Emily had been sitting in the station for at least five minutes at this point, Alison, Tom and The Ink Demon didn't move even an inch from their original places.

"My goodness." Emily whispered. "What are they doing?"

"Or else what?!"

The Ink Demon grinned evilly and used ink to tie Tom and Alison together.

"No..." Emily whispered. "No, please..." She pleaded for their safety.

You may be asking, 'Why doesn't she go out there and fight for them?' The answer is simple. She was too afraid to.

She guessed, since the Miracle Station was not insight of The Ink Demon, she quietly opened the door and ran.

After Stacy had gotten the lever from Boris, She and him left the safe house and made their way down the halls.

"I guess while i'm here. Have you seen a toon named Emily Rose around here?"

Boris froze in fear, how long had it been since he saw Emily last? Why was Stacy asking about her?

"i'll take that as a no." Stacy replied, realizing Boris's silence.

Little did either know what or who they were to encounter.
