Henry struggled to break free as Bendy had him pinned up against the wall, leering at him and could possibly strike him at any minute,he had to get away, he had to get to Lily,she could be lying hurt at the bottom of that hole she had fell down and after staring at him whilst he had him pinned up against the wall, Bendy finally spoke up.
"You" he hissed, seeming to know who Henry was "Henry...you shouldn't have come back here...if you know what's good for you."
"Bendy" Henry replied, his voice shaking "what happened to you, you never used to be like this,what the hell has gotten into you?" He watched as Bendy's grin stretched even further,putting his face up close to Henry's in a threatening manner.
"Oh I'll tell you what the hell has gotten into me, why that traitor is the reason, he betrayed us, just like all the other fools that worked here, this is revenge and I will not stop until everyone that worked here is dead and it looks like you're the first Henry my friend" the Ink demon replied in a threatening manner.
"Listen if you want me to leave then I will but not without..."
"You're not leaving" Bendy hissed, cutting him off "not while I'm finally about to take revenge and I finished you off once and for all, and any one else who dares to enter here" he then lifted Henry off the floor, carrying him back over to the hole by the back of his shirt and peered it "hmmm, kinda dark isn't it, no telling how far this goes down but I'm guessing it's a long way down and impossible for anyone to survive...hold on a minute,didn't you have a child with you,a little girl,if so then where is she?" his grin became more sinister and turned to face Henry "oh, I see...she fell down that deep dark hole did she, is that why you're still hanging around, don't want to leave your child behind, all alone in a dark and scary place like this,well I wouldn't worry too much, she wouldn't have survived the fall,still no matter, at least you'll be reunited with her again and I have to say, it's been nice knowing ya Henry old buddy but it's time we moved on, don't you think" he then chuckled evil and pushed Henry down into the hole that Lily had fallen into but luckily the fall was none threatening and he still remained in one piece when he landed but as he got to feet and looked around the room to see if Lily was there also but there was no sign of the child,it was just him.
"Lily, where are you honey?" he muttered before noticing the open door leading to the staircase "maybe she went down here." After recovering from the fall, Henry made his way towards the entrance and down the stairs, many thoughts going through his head, why was Bendy acting like the way he was, why had he become some evil demonic version of himself wanting revenge, what did Joey do to betray them all and where was Lily, he hadn't seen any sign of her since he was thrown down here and was beginning to become concerned for her well being, it was like she had disappeared into thin air. Henry continued walking down the stairs until he came to a room with what appeared to be some kind of summoning circle in the middle.
"What the hell?" Henry muttered before looking over to his side to see another message written on the wall, this on reading out THE CREATOR LIED TO US "something's definitely going on here, I need to find Lily so we can get out of this place." All of a sudden, the room began to shake and Ink began trailing up the walls in a vein like manner and feeling light headed, Henry fell to his knees, right in the middle of the pentagram and right before he blacked out, he felt a hand grab the back of his shirt and he could hear Bendy speaking in his ear.
"You know something, I'm surprised you're still alive which is good because I don't want to kill you...not yet at least, instead I'm gonna spare you, see how long it takes for you to try and find that little girl of yours before you meet your end, because there's lots of monsters roaming this place and I can guarantee you won't last long, hehehe,this is going to be fun." That was the last thing Henry heard before he blacked out right in the middle of the pentagram and Bendy quietly slipped out the room, still looking at the unconscious man laying on the floor.
Elsewhere in the studio, the stranger that Lily had ran into after she had fallen through the floor was crouched down on the floor, drawing another Pentagram,just like the one that Henry had passed out on whilst reciting his creepy sheep song and after he had finished, he turned around, looking over towards Lily who was laying unconscious on the floor with her wrists tied together and a gag in her mouth, she had kicked up a huge fuss after he had grabbed her that he had to give her a little something to put her to sleep, it made it easier to bring her down here without her kicking, screaming and calling for help, making a fuss just like any small child would if they found themselves in danger and he couldn't let that happen, she was the perfect sacrifice for his lord and saviour, she was his key to him being freed from the Inky body he had become trapped in.
"It's almost time my little sheep" he said as he slowly walked towards the unconscious child "it's almost time for me to be freed from this dark Inky abyss of a body" he smirked from under the beaten old Bendy mask he wore as he lifted the girl up from the floor before carrying her over to the pentagram he had just drawn and placing her right in the middle "but first I have some things I need to attend to" he stood up and took on last look at the little girl who remained in a deep slumber, unaware of what was going on "I'll be back soon little sheep, then it'll be time for sacrifice." He then walked out of the room, leaving Lily alone,unconscious and helpless.
"Ugh, my head" Henry groaned as he slowly regained consciousness "what happened?" the last thing he could remember was being in a room that contained a pentagram and a creepy message written on the wall...then he remembered that Lily was missing and that he had to go and find her. As his vision became more clearer, he saw that he was still in the same place he was before he blacked out, that being the room with the message written on the wall and the pentagram.
"Welp, guess there's only one thing I can do" he muttered as he slowly got to his feet " head on and see if I can find Lily anywhere." As he stood up, he noticed that the door on the opposite side of the room was boarded up.
"Great, the way out's been blocked off" he muttered to himself "let's see if there's anything I can use to get through" he began searching across the room for something he could use to break the planks of wood that were blocking the door until he came across an axe that was laying in the corner.
"This will do" he said as he picked up the axe and made his way over to the boarded up door and then using the axe to break away the wood that was blocking it "there we go, now let's see where this leads to, and see if I can find my little girl." Henry opened the door and down another set of staircases that led further down into the workshop, keeping hold of the axe, he had decided to keep it with him as it would make for a great defence if he was to find himself in danger. As he arrived at the bottom, Henry found himself in a room filled with more pentagrams and what appeared to be shrines, also there was another message written on the wall, this one read out HE WILL SET US FREE.
"What the hell is going on here?" Henry mumbled "and how on earth did this place get so big?" he continued looking around the room until he came across another tape player, just like the one he and Lily had found upstairs.
"I wonder what's on this one" Henry said before pressing play and another voice from one of the previous workers began to play, it sounded just like the person who had kidnapped Lily and left her tied up and unconscious somewhere in the workshop, this is what it said on the recording.
He appears from the shadows to rain his sweet blessings upon, a figure of ink that shines in the darkness, I see you, my saviour, I pray you hear me, those old songs, yes, I still sing them, for I know you are coming to save me and I will be finally swept into your loving embrace, but,love requires sacrifice,can I get an amen?
"I said, can I get an amen?" the same voice spoke, sounding like it was coming right from behind Henry as soon as the recording ended but as he jumped around, he saw that there was nobody there and he rubbed the back of his head in confusion.
"I recognise that voice, it sounded just like Sammy Lawrence" Henry said to himself, Sammy Lawrence was the music director for the cartoons and by the sound of it, he seemed to have lost his mind and Henry began to wonder if the figure of Ink he was talking about was Bendy, it sounded almost like he was worshipping him in some way then it suddenly clicked, it must have been Sammy who had made all these shrines in the room.
"The man's gone insane" Henry muttered "but I can't be worrying about him right now, I need to focus on finding Lily so we can get out of this place." Gripping onto his axe, Henry began making his way down a corridor leading out of the shrine room to continue his search for Lily and he continued on walking until he came across a room that was flooded with ink, the stuff had been leaking from the pipes that were placed around the walls and seeing as this was the only way to go, Henry had no choice but to walk through it all. As he made his way through the ink flooded hallway, he saw a figure walking across the hallway up ahead, there was another person here and Henry noticed that the person was carrying one of those Bendy cut outs that he and Lily had seen around the workshop.
"Excuse me, hello, can you help me?" he called out to the stranger who appeared to be singing something about sheep as they walked across the hallway "I'm looking for my daughter, you wouldn't happen to have seen her about have you, she's Ten years old...hello?" as he reached the end of the ink flood corridor, the stranger had mysteriously vanished "where the hell did he go?" the person had vanished but the cut out he had been carrying had been propped up against the wall, in front of one of the many pentagrams that Henry had seen down here and Henry began to realise that there was something sinister was going off, he had to find Lily and he had to find her fast but from the looks of it, the workshop appeared to be much bigger than he had thought and it could be impossible to find a little girl in such a big place like this but he couldn't give up, he had to find her, he had already lost his wife, he wasn't going to lose his child too.
"Don't worry Lily" he said "Daddy's coming."
Meanwhile, Sammy Lawrence had just returned to the room where he was keeping Lily and noticed that she was beginning to stir so he quickly rushed over towards her and placed a white cloth over her mouth as she weakly struggled to move her head away.
"Ssh,not yet little sheep" he said in a soothing yet creepy voice "go back to sleep, ssh, sleep,little sheep,sleep." Before long, Lily became unconscious again and Sammy pulled the cloth away from her mouth and stood up, looking at the child as she lay unconscious on the pentagram, grinning from underneath his mask.
"Soon my little sheep, he will arrive" he spoke, not taking his eyes of the small motionless child "my lord, soon he will free me, it won't be long now little sheep." He then chuckled darkly and quietly slipped out the room, leaving Lily once again, alone, unconscious and helpless.
