Phantom Fan 21:Okay before I start the next chapter I need to let the guest reviewer Matt know about something. I saw your review and, because it it as a guest review, I deleted it. You had asked me the same question back on my extra chapter and I already explain back in the first half of Chapter 3 why they didn't leave a note. Asked me that again and I'll will keep deleting it. Now that I got that out, on to chapter 4!
"Danny? Hey Danny! Are you okay?"
Danny groan as he open his eyes. He look around a little and saw Bendy floating in front of him.
"Bendy? What happen?" Danny asked, rubbing his head.
"Oh thank god! Alice! Boris! He's awake!" Bendy said then call out to his friends.
Hearing those names remind Danny what Ink Alice said. He look around worry and found Bobby in a sitting up position and look to have a few bandages on him. He was breathing so that was a good sign. He turn see Jazz also in a sitting up position. Danny smile, Ink Alice didn't do anything to Jazz. He then notices the elevator and how smash up it was. Now that he's thinking about it, how did they get out of the crash elevator? And who put bandages on Bobby? He knew that the ink inside him and Jazz was healing them. Which brought up another question why did the ink inside Bobby heal him? Why only him and Jazz? Before he could asked he notices someone else was missing from the group.
"Wait, where's Ink Boris?" He asked.
"He was taken." Jazz said groaning.
"Jazz you okay?" Danny asked her.
"Other than a splitting headache and a sore body? I'm fine." Jazz answered.
Bobby groan and open his eyes and slowly stood up.
"Is everyone alright?" He asked.
"Yeah, I think I got a few cuts, but I think they heal up already." Jazz said.
"I'm fine too, but right now, we got to save Ink Boris!" Danny said getting up.
"That's right! I saw Ink Alice take him." Jazz added.
"So did I. Let's go!" Bobby said.
The three hybrids and the three cartoons started to walk down the hall until the came to a huge sign that that pointed out the Office of Grant Cohan to the right and Archives and R&D Access to the left. The sign also said that they were on level S.
"Let's head left. I got a feeling there might be more stuff there then Grant's office." Bobby said.
"And who is Grant?" Danny asked Bendy.
"As far as we know, he overlook the finance of the many projects that Joey comes up with." Bendy answer.
"The sad thing is, no one knows about them because Joey keeps it to himself." Alice said
"Not even we know what they are. He somehow found a way to keep us from finding out." Boris added.
They turn left but found the Metal Door that lead to the Archives and R&D Access was missing it handle.
"So much for this way." Danny groan.
"We better look for the handle. Let head to Grant's office." Bobby said and they turn around.
They found the office and when they enter, they were shock to see writing all over the walls, some overlapping each other. It look to be the sign of a madman.
"Ok, that not creepy at all." Danny said trying to to joke.
Jazz was too shock to say anything, but Bobby was able to snap outta of it.
"Let's find the handle." He said.
Everyone nods and started to look around. Danny found another tape record and press play. Instead of hearing a voice of a worker, they heard strange sounds coming from the tape. It went on for a full minute until it click off. Danny and Jazz stare at the tape before looking at each other. They look at their cartoon friends, all of them where speechless and scare. Bobby heard the tape as well and it scare him too, but he found a handle and pick it up. He walk back over to Danny and Jazz and place his hands on their shoulders.
"I got the handle. Let's go." He said.
Danny and Jazz nods and the three walk back to the metal door. The handle fit and they open the door and step into the Archives. The lights turn on one by one showing a large Bendy statue surrounded by ink creatures that look more human than anything they had seen before. Above them were the words He will set us free.
"This place gets more creeper everytime we enter a new area." Jazz said.
"Ditto." Danny agree.
"I been here for a month and I never seen this before." Bobby added.
They walk past the statue and found their way to a circler library. They found another tape record. They were a little against hitting play after the last one, but Danny press it.
"They told me I was perfect for the role. Absolutely perfect. Now Joey's going around saying things behind closed doors. I can always tell. Now he wants to meet again tomorrow, says he has an "opportunity" for me. I'll hear him out. But if that smooth talker thinks he can double cross an angel and get away with it, well, oh he's got another thing coming. Alice, ooh she doesn't like liars."
"How much you want to bet that "opportunity" was turn Susie into Ink Alice?" Danny growl.
Jazz notices had sad Alice was and place her on her shoulder.
"Remember, the real Susie is in your heart." She told her.
"I know. I just can't believe Joey would do this." Alice said.
"Even when he and Henry were friends, there was something about that man that didn't sit right with us." Bendy said.
"We never met him and we can already tell this guy is mess up." Danny added.
"Indeed, I know Susie is a monster now, but we have to feel sorry for her at some point." Bobby said.
They look at the tape record before looking for the door. They went to it, but it wasn't like the other doors they seen. It was wooden door with no handle or any sign of it having something to open it with. All it had was five light bulbs over it. Jazz notices a book sticking out close by and push it in. One of the light bulbs lit up when the book was in.
"So that how it works." Jazz said.
"Let's find the others!" Danny smirk.
The three started to search for more books and found some hanging out ot the selves. Once they push the third book in, something happen. They weren't sure, but the lights start flashing and it appear everything in the room was moving. It stop as quickly as it began. All three teens held their head as the Cartoon Trio flew close to them.
"Are you guys ok?" Bendy asked.
"I think so." Bobby answer.
"Did anyone else see that?" Danny asked.
"Yes, But what was it?" Jazz asked confused.
No one answer. Instead they went back looking for the books that were hanging out. When Danny pass the room with the Bendy Statue, he notices the the ink people were gone!
"Uh guys? I think we got problem." He said.
Jazz and Bobby turn and gasp in shock. No one could figure out what to say. They just had one thought, let's get outta here! They waste no time int pushing that last two books in and went for the door that open.
They walk through the small hallway and come to a large room that had cages hanging over a large dark pit. Bobby had knock a crate in the pit, but no one heard it hit the bottom.
"That's a long way down." Danny said as the others nods.
"We better find Ink Boris. You knows what that crazy angel will do to him." Bobby said turning from the pit.
"Yeah, she going to learn who the true Ink Demon is!" Danny growl.
"Danny? Why did you call yourself the Ink Demon?" Jazz asked.
"I think it because I have the Ink Demon ink inside me. I heard Ink Alice call me Ink Demon "Child". For some reason saying the words Ink Demon feels right." Danny explain thinking.
"Well you are no Ink Demon. Sure you might have it ink inside of you, and so do I, but there no way you are going to become the next Ink Demon because you have a good heart, something that either the Ink Demon or Ink Alice has." Jazz told him.
"Thanks Jazz." Danny smile.
They climb the twisted stairs and notice some Bendy cut outs somehow logged into the wall and a small machine close by. They spotted a lift on the other side of the large pit and the controls close by. Danny went over to the small machine to look over it as Jazz and Bobby check the lift controls. They soon found the problem.
"It appear the gear is missing." Bobby said.
"But where are we going to get one? There are no gears here." Jazz asked.
"And I got the answer!" Danny said walking up to them.
"That small machine has a wheel that shows the different things that we can make. We just need something to make it with." He said.
"Maybe ink? I mean just about everything is made out of ink here." Jazz said.
"Agree, let's check out that hall." Bobby said and point at the hall not too far from them.
They nod and went down the hallway to a large pipe. Danny spotted a level by the door and pull it. The large pipe lifted up to revealed a large puddle of ink.
"Found some." Danny said cheeky.
"Oh brother." Jazz groan.
"Not sure it's a good idea to put your hands in that." Bendy said floating close to it.
"There something about this ink." Alice added.
"Maybe this valve can help us?" Bobby said and turn it.
Everyone jump in surprise as a ink monster appear out of the ink. But it didn't do anything. They started to relax a bit when Danny notices something odd.
"Is that a piece of ink on it back?" Danny asked reaching out for it.
He grab it and pull it off with easy. The Ink Monster made a groan and went back into the ink.
"Danny!" Jazz said upset.
"What? I got the ink didn't I?" Danny asked confuse.
"Yes, but what if that ink was dangerous? What if you made the Ink Monster attack us?" Jazz told him angrily.
"But it didn't and I feel fine." Danny told her.
"Bendy?" Bobby asked the cartoon.
"He's right. It appear to be normal ink now. But it still odd." Bendy answer.
"Everything about this place is odd. We keep getting more questions than answers every time we find more things about this studio." Jazz said.
"Let's keep moving. We got to find some answers sooner or later." Bobby said.
They walk back to the small machine and Danny place the ink it. He set the wheel to the gear and pull the level. The ink went inside the machine and soon come out and turn into a gear. Danny grab the gear and place it in it place and pull the level that made the lift move over to them, slowly.
"Is that going to able to hold all three of us?" Jazz asked once it reach them.
"We're going to have to risk it." Bobby said.
"It too dangerous for us to split up." He added.
Danny and Jazz nods and all three of them got in the lift. It start to head back across the large pit and it look to hold their weight and going smoothly. About half way across, the lift shuttered making the teens fear that it was going to fall, lucky it didn't and made the rest of the tip without any more scares. The three step out slightly shaken.
"That was fun." Danny said try to joke to calm his nerves.
"At least we made it." Jazz said trying to forget about the idea of falling.
"We would asked you if you guys are okay, but we can seen you're a little shaken." Bendy said floating next to Danny.
Alice had turn to Jazz's size and hug her, trying to calm her down and hum her theme song. Once everyone had calm down they notices a door in front of them and enter it a another hallway. As soon as the door close behind them, Danny, Jazz and Bobby almost scream when Ink hands appear out of the walls trying to grab something. This time they could heard voices, but they were speaking at once and couldn't make out what they were saying. But they could felt the plead of calling for help and asking for the Creator. Soon the hands disappears and they just barely miss seeing the Ink Machine lower in front of them.
"Does anybody know what the hell that was?!" Danny asked.
"I don't know! That was creepy as hell!" Jazz said.
"They calling for help. That much we can make out." Bobby said.
"Yeah, we may not be the "Creator" but we can't ignore those cries." Danny said looking at Jazz.
"Danny, don't..." She started to say.
"Don't start that again! Don't say we need to get outta here and call the police! We saw Ink Monsters, Twisted Butcher Gang Members, and a twisted psycho Alice Angel! They won't believe us! What, do you think that they could stand against the Ink Demon? We been close to it a few times and we could feel it's very powerful and while I be able to fight it off, no one stand a chance against that thing!" Danny told her.
"Your brother is right, Jazz. No one will believe what has happen to this studio. They might as well send us to a insane asylum after telling our story. Truefully, if I haven't seen this place and it mysteries I wouldn't believe this either." Bobby added.
Jazz was quiet. She knew they both had a point. She sigh and look at her brother.
"Danny I understand, but if we are not the "Creator" then what will happen when we find the ones that send out the voices? Will they be sad or attack us? I know Alice is teaching me to look at the good side of things, but we got to think of the bad side too." Jazz explain.
Danny sigh and shook his head.
"I know about the dangers if we are wrong. But if we try to help them, then we can avoid possible enemies. The more we help the better chance we have of helping others as we getting outta here. Sometimes I wonder who the older sibling." Danny said.
Jazz sigh again and the three walk out of the hall and saw more twisted stairs.
"I see you there, my little errand boy. Your angel is always watching. What is it that keeps you going? Is it the thrill of the hunt? The thirst for your freedom? or perhaps... You're just looking for a little, friendly, wolf... Better hurry errand boy. Boris is having trouble staying in one piece." Ink Alice voice had said over the speakers.
"Ink Alice! I'm not your errand boy! I knew you weren't going to let us go, but making the elevator drop with us in it!? I don't know what Joey did to you, but you won't get away with this Susie!" Danny shouted.
"DO NOT CALL ME THAT! I'M ALICE ANGEL!" She shouted back.
"You're no angel! We found your tape recorder! We know Joey give you a opportunity of some short, but you didn't become a Angel, you became another Ink Demon!" Jazz shouted.
"You little...No matter. I will be beautiful and Alice Angel will be the shining star that she should have been!" Ink Alice said before the speakers went quiet.
"Danny, Jazz, calm down. I'm upset with her too, but getting angry isn't going to help us save Ink Boris." Bobby said seeing the ink drip off his friends.
"She just piss me off so much!" Danny growl.
"She too far gone. Whatever trace of her humanity was left is gone forever. We can't let her get away with the things she done." Jazz said.
After calming down a bit the three walk up the stairs enter a small room. They notices another door and started to walk towards it.
"He going to find me..." They heard.
All three look up to see someone on the balcony above them, it look more human like Sammy, but it was cover in ink from head to toe and had yellow growing eyes and was looking around.
"He always find me. When do we go home? I just want to go home!" It said and walk away.
"What was that?" Jazz asked.
"I have no idea. Sound like it was a lost one." Bobby said.
"No doubt it a victim of the Ink Demon. I can't think of anyone else it was talking about." Danny said.
"What about Joey Drew?" Bendy asked.
"Joey might be power hungry, but from his tape it sounds like he was trying to have some control over himself. Then again, nothing make sense here." Danny said.
The others nod and open the door. They eyes widen in shock as they saw more of the ink people. They look up at them and appear to give off some kind of shock look, through they still appear to sad.
"Who are they?"
"They're not the Creator."
"But they look like the cartoons."
"The boy and girl have been infected."
"We're doom."
The three teens stood there and look at each other. Danny snap out of it and step forward.
"Listen, I'm sorry we are not the one you are waiting for but, that doesn't mean we are going to let you suffer here any longer. I maybe infected, but that doesn't mean I'm losing hope. I don't know who the creator is, but I can say that whoever he or she is, shouldn't have let things get this far. We are here to help, if you let us." He said.
"Nice speech." Bendy said.
"Thanks. It was something I came up with in the last minute." Danny said sheepishly.
"Wait, is that Bendy? The Dancing Demon?" A ink person said.
"Wait, you can see me?" Bendy asked.
"It is, he looks nothing like the Ink Demon." Another said.
"It's the ink! Those infected by the ink can see the true Bendy." Jazz said.
"If that's true then we can been seen too!" Alice said floating next to Jazz.
"Alice Angel? The real one?" The same Ink person said.
"Not just her." Boris said also appearing next to Bobby.
This really surprise the ink people. They couldn't believe the three infected people had the real life cartoons with them.
"Listen I know you all have question and so do we but, we need to find Ink Alice or Susie Campbell if you know her as that. She has a friend of ours and we need to save him." Bobby said.
"Are you sure? Your friend might be dead already." A ink person said.
"He's not. Ink Alice is keeping him alive for now, but if we don't hurry, who know what she'll do to him." Bobby said.
"Listen, you are standing here. Waiting for the one that will save you. You kept your hope. If you lose that, then the one you are waiting for will felt like they let you down. You don't want that do you?" Danny said.
"But he not coming. We are Doom." ANother Ink Person said.
"No you're not! Like Danny said, we are here to help. If you don't have hope for us, then kept that hope for the Creator. Whoever that is." Jazz said.
The ink people went quiet and the three hybrids look at each other.
"We need to get past this room. We can't do anything here for now." Bobby said.
Danny and Jazz nodded and the three started to walk pass the Ink People. A few of them look at them, but didn't say anything else. Once the reach the other side of the room, they saw an open vent and a flashlight. Jazz and Bobby went in after Danny grab the flashlight. He was about to follow after them when one of the Ink People walk up to him.
"Ink Boy, wait." It said.
Danny hand the flashlight to Jazz and said, "I'll be with you guys in a minute."
"What wrong?" He asked the Ink Person.
"Are you really going help us?" It asked him.
"Yes, I was always taught that I should put other needs in front of my own. You're all victims in this nightmare. I will do what I can to help." Danny told it.
"Thank you, but you should beware. The Lair mess with powers he shouldn't have." The Ink Person said.
"I'm sorry, The Liar?" Danny asked a bit confuse.
"He the found he found this studio." Another ink person said before looking at the ground.
"Joey Drew. I never met him, but I can tell he not a good person." Danny said understanding.
"Yes, we hope for the Creator to come and free us, but we will hope for you to do the same." The ink person said.
"Okay, I need to catch up with the others, but I got one more question. Is Henry the Creator?" Danny said then asked.
Hearing Henry name seems to make every ink people turn to him. They had the look of shock on their faces again. Danny nodded seeing the answer to his question.
"Bendy told me about him. I never met him, but I can tell he a nice guy." Danny smile and turn to the vent.
"Thank you."
Danny turn around to look back at the ink people, but they were back to the way they were when they enter. Danny smirk again.
"You're welcome." He whisper and crawl inside the vent.
"What took you?" Jazz asked.
"The Ink People need to asked me something. Turns out Henry is the Creator, but those messages wasn't towards him, but to Joey Drew who they call the Liar." Danny explain.
"Well that one question out of the way, but another takes it place." Bobby said.
"What did Joey Drew do here that made this studio this way?" Jazz asked.
"Let's keep going. I'm sure the answer must be in this studio somewhere." Danny said.
They crawl through vent and saw another vent with lights on. As they got closer, the Ink Demon slam on the other side scaring them. They crawl back abit and Danny and Jazz could feel themselves transforming. However, the Ink Demon did nothing, but rub it finger on the vent and walk away confusing everyone.
"Uh, anyone know why it just left us alone?" Danny asked, feeling his transformation cancelling.
"I don't know." Jazz said, her transformation cancelling as well.
"There some odd going on." Bobby said.
With nothing else, the three continue to crawl through the vent. They heard a thumping sound and follow it to see another Ink Person banging it head on the wall. knowing that there nothing they can do right now, the three turn around and started to find a a exit. It took them awhile, but they found it and step into a large room,with a large Bendy statue, a metal door that was close, and some writing on the wall.
"Come up and See me."
"It a trap. Why else would someone write that?" Danny said.
"We might not have a choice. I don't see away to open the metal door." Bobby said.
"Let's go, but be careful." Jazz added.
They climb up the stairs and saw that wall were cover in blueprints of what appear to be a theme park.
"A theme park? A Bendy theme park? Who does this guy think is he is, Walt Disney?" Danny asked.
"Maybe this tape record can help us." Bobby said and press play.
"For forty years, I've built attractions that stagger the imagination! Colossal wonders such as the world has never seen! I have earned my legacy with sweat. But right in front of everyone... high level investors, Wall Street tycoons, the ever-tactless Joey Drew introduces me, the great Bertrum Piedmont, as Bertie! Like I was his child. You may be paying me, Mister Drew! But you don't own me! I'll build you a park bigger than anything YOU could ever possibly conceive! But before you go taking any bows, Mister Drew, know that this grand achievement will belong to me... and to me alone."
"Okay who was that?" Jazz asked.
"That was Bertrum Piedmont. As far as we know, he made theme parks. We never met him." Alice said.
"Yeah, I never thought someone would make a theme park after me. I wonder what it looks like?" Bendy said.
"I found a switch. Looks like it going to open that metal door." Jazz said and pull it.
The metal door did indeed open and they went back down the stairs and went through it and into another room. It was a bit dark to see at first then the lights turn on and saw a large room that were full with parts and decorations for variations games and rides. Over all that was large sign that said Bendy Land, only the word Land was written over with the world Hell.
"Someone didn't like this." Danny said.
"It look unfinished too." Jazz added.
"Maybe we are only in part of the theme park. I think that Haunted House is the way to go." Bobby said.
They started to walk down the stairs and head to the Haunted House. But it appear to be shut and there was no power on it.
"Guess we got to start up the power to move on. But all the doors here are lock." Danny said thinking.
They heard a sound of something opening and turn to find that some of the games area had open. They even found another tape record and Danny press play.
"These guys down in the warehouse get to play games all day while I'm stuck cleaning up after 'em. They kept locking themselves out of their own back room. So I says, look guys, I says, you're smart, right? Here's an idea! Why not rig these games up to knock open the door if ya win? It'll be fun for you guys, and it saves me the trip down here every day. They went for it like a dog to pot roast. I tell ya! If these guys don't start realizing who the real genius is, I'm outta here."
"So play the games to unlock the door? Got to say a odd idea, but a good one none less." Danny smile really like this Wally Franks.
"There are three games and there are three of us. I'll take the "Test Your Strength". Danny you get the "Knock the Bottles Down". And Jazz you have the "Shooting Gallery"." Bobby said.
"Might as well Jazz." Danny said and grab the balls and got ready to play.
"Well, I guess have some kind of fun could help us relaxed a little." Jazz said and pick up the fake gun and got ready to hit the targets.
Bobby walk over the game and grab the mallet. He hit as hard as he could and heard the bell ring. His smile faded when he heard Ink Alice.
"Tell me, are you having fun? I'm sure Boris doesn't mind waiting for his rescue party." She said.
Hearing Ink Alice voice again made Danny mad again and threw the ball a little too hard, breaking the bottles he was aiming at. He still won the game and took a breath to calm himself. Jazz was able to keep her anger under control and won her game. The door next to the Shooting Gallery open and the three walk inside. There wasn't much to see but the Bendy costumes creep them out a little. They pull the switch and notices that light was travel through the cable. They follow the cable until they reach a power box off to the side of the haunted house.
"There are five switches here, but only four has cable attached to them." Danny said.
"That means the four switches power up the switch that must open the Haunted House." Jazz added.
"Indeed. Let's see what the first switch does." Bobby said and pull it.
They heard a door open and turn to see the door across from them open up. They saw a sign above the door that read Research and Design. They walk through the door and came to large room with a balcony that they were odd. Danny smell some light smoke and look down.
"Shit! Those guys again." He said making Jazz and Bobby look as well.
Jazz then turn and smack him upside the head.
"Ow, what was that for?" Danny asked rubbing his head.
"Language, Danny." She said.
"When need a way pass them. Without any weapons might might not stand a chance." Bobby said.
"Can I try to turn into my Ink Form? I mean I did fight off Bendy, twice." Danny asked.
"Let's not. It possible you might end up losing control of yourself and call Ink Bendy to us." Jazz said.
Bobby notices a empty Bacon soup can and pick it up. He look back down at the Butcher Gang and threw the can to the other side. The Butcher Gang heard it and rush over to see what it was.
"How about that? We can use the empty cans to distract them. That way we can avoid fighting them." He said.
"Really? They can't be that stupid." Jazz said.
"Actually they are. Even in our world, the Butcher Gang fall for my disguises all the time. Sometimes they fall for the same disguise!" Bendy laugh.
Jazz shook her head and everyone look around the balcony for all the empty cans they could find. They found some and met back up. They notices that the Butcher Gang appear to move back to the burning can. The saw two hallways and decide to head left first. Danny threw his can towards the right hallway, making the Butcher Gang rush over to it. They quickly walk into the hallway and follow it. They notice another ink person but this time it as crying. It didn't taken notice of it visitors. They felt sorry for it and walkin into a large work room, that had a mechanic robot that look like Bendy.
"Wow, a robot Bendy. That's cool!" Danny said.
Jazz roll her eyes and saw a tape recorder. She walk over and press play.
"The only thing that works around here is my ulcer. Half these people don't know a wrench from a dang steamroller. Buncha morons is what they are. Spend their day in the warehouse arguin' over who's supposed to be doin' what or playing them silly games. Still, I'm not complainin'. I get most of my time to myself. Suits me just fine. Only thing that bothers me is that mechanical demon in the corner. Bertrum's been working on it for a month now. Says it will walk someday and maybe dance. All it does now is give me the creeps. I swear, when my back's turned, that thing's movin'."
"Talking about being paranoid." Jazz said.
"In a place like, can you not afford to be?" Bobby said and pull the switch on the wall.
"This one does haven't a cable. Bet it on the other side of the room." Danny said after looking over the robot.
They nod and started to leave the room. Jazz look back at the robot and thought she saw it finger twitch for a split second. She shook her head and follow after her brother and friend. The Butcher Gang had once again return to the burning can and Jazz threw her can away from the right hallway. They quickly move pass and found the switch behind the shelves that hid them from the Butcher Gang. They pull the switch and Bobby threw his last can to the other side of the room moving the Butcher Gang away.
They got back to the Bendy Land room and pull the next switch. They started to look for the door that was open and found it under the sign that said, Attraction Storage. They walk inside and notices a dead Butcher Gang Member.
"What happen to it?" Danny asked, looking at the twisted toon.
"Not sure. It doesn't look like Ink Alice kill it through.' Bobby said.
"Yeah, she wouldn't risk touching it ink. Doesn't want to be drag back in it." Danny agree.
They turn and notice a large room with a ride inside. They walk in and saw other tape recorder. Bobby walk up and press play.
"The biggest park ever built, a centerfold of attractions. Each one, more grand than the one before it. It makes my eyes come to tears at the thought. But then... oh Mister Drew. For all your talk of dreams, you are the true architect behind so many nightmares. I built this park. It was to be a masterpiece! My masterpiece! And now you think you can just throw me out? Trample me to the dust and forget me? No! This is my park! My glory! You may think I've gone... But I'm still here!"
As the recorder play, the doors behind them shut and lights started to turn on and finally the ride started to move. The three teens started to back away as the recorder finish and the ride open up to show the large head of Bertrum Piedmont. The ride spin around before smashing the recorder, as well as the table.
"What the hell?!" Danny shouted.
"Is that Bertrum Piedmont?!" Jazz shouted as well.
"Is that an ax?" Bobby pointed to the ruin table.
Sure enough it was an ax. Bobby ran over and pick it up.
"Bobby look out!" Boris shouted.
Bobby look up but was too late to dodge as the ride smack him, making him drop the ax and slam into a wall. He fell down and remain still but still breathing.
"Bobby!" Jazz yelled in worry.
Danny quickly ran over to the ax and pick it up while he kept his eyes out for any of the rides coming at him. Lucky he spotted one of the arm rides coming at him and jump back.
"Jazz, when need beat this thing if we going to help Bobby." He said.
"How?" Jazz asked.
Danny look back at Bertrum Piedmont and notices that the rides "arms" stop, twitch and slam on the ground show off the bolts it has. Danny quickly ran over to the nearest "arm" and hit the two lights on one side and was able to hit the other side that broke the "arm" off. Danny smile and notice another arm coming at him faster than before. He quickly jump out of the way and Jazz ran up to him.
"You okay?" She asked.
"Yeah, but it appear my plan work. Because that ride can only spin and has a limited reach. We can stay away from it and attack the bolts. I only didn't count on it moving faster." Danny said.
"Maybe we can work together? You take one side and I do the other? Just hand me the ax once your done with your side." Jazz said.
Danny nodded and notices the "arms" getting ready to slam again. Once they did, the siblings ran over to the nearest "arm" and Danny hack the bolts off before sliding the ax under the "arm" to Jazz, who waste no time in hacking the other two bolts off. The "arm" broke off and Jazz and Danny quickly ran to get away from the "arm" that nearly hit Danny.
"Okay, it appears it get faster with end "arm" we take off. We need to be quicker." Danny said.
"Easier said than done Danny, but your right." Jazz said gripping the ax tightly.
Once the "arms" slam again, they rush over and hack the bolts off on both sides.
"Jazz look out!" Danny shouted and puss her out of the way.
Danny was hit, but he kept his grip and climb inside the ride. He could tell the room was spinning and felt like he was going to be sick at the speed it was going at. Lucky the spinning stop and the "arm" slam on the ground. He climb out and notices that Jazz had the ax and hack off both bolts on her side. Shaking off his dizziness, he grab the ax that Jazz slide under the "arm" and hack the last two bolts. The "arm" and ax broke at the same time and the ride started to spin out of control. They look and saw Bertrum Piedmont face coughing before falling limp when the ride stop. The door on it slowly started to close until Bertrum Piedmont was seen no more.
They heard the doors open and saw a switch they came to find. Danny ran over to the switch and pull it before running over to Bobby.
"Bobby? Bobby!" Danny said kneeling down to him.
Bobby groan and open his eyes and notices Danny and Jazz as well as the cartoon trio.
"Guys? What happen? Augh! My chest." Bobby asked before felt some pain.
"Easy, you were hit really hard. I find the switch. Come on Jazz let's help him up." Danny said and lift his arm over his shoulder.
Jazz did the same and they carry him back to the small power box and pull the next switch. After that Danny look at Bobby.
"Bobby, shouldn't your ink be healing you? I been meaning to asked for some time, but never had the chance." He said.
"Sadly, I can't heal as fast as you too. While I am healing somewhat, it much slowly because I wasn't infected by the Ink Demon ink like you two." Bobby explain.
"We can't leave you alone, but we can't carry you if we need to run from the Ink Demon." Jazz said.
"We just got to find one more switch. I saw a Little Miracle Station close by. We can place Bobby in there so he can be save from any Ink Monsters that shows up." Danny said.
"But Danny..." Jazz started to say before Bobby cut her off.
"It's fine Jazz. Those Little Miracle Stations appear to be some kind of magic. I once broke my arm and when I rested inside of the Miracle Station, it was fully heal in a few minutes. I'm not sure how or why, but since this place doesn't make sense I decide to roll with it." He told her.
"Okay." Jazz said and they carry him to the Little Miracle Station.
Once inside, Bobby sat down and smile at them. The door shut and Danny and Jazz look for the door that the switch had open. The found the door with the sign Maintenance above it. They enter and saw some more posters of Bendy Adventures and a Miracle Station. They look down the stairs and saw it was flooded with ink and a old enemy.
"The Projectionist?" Danny asked in surprise.
"It look like it heal from the attacks we do to it." Jazz said.
"Well we are going into ink so maybe we can defeat it for good this time." Danny said.
"I don't think that's a good idea, Danny." Bendy said floating near him.
"Why?" Jazz asked.
"We're not sure how, but it appear to be stronger then before. I don't think your Ink Forms are going to help this time." Bendy explain.
"Bendy's right. It best if you avoid for now." Alice agree.
Danny and Jazz look confuse but decide to take their cartoon friends words for it. They walk down the stairs and step into the ink that turn them into their ink forms.
"We better look for that switch." Danny said.
"Yes and let's keep an eye out for the Projectionist." Jazz agree.
They found the switch and pull it before hearing a screech and saw the Projectionist running towards them. Remembering Bendy and Alice words, the two ran for it and notices another set of stairs. They ran up it, causing them to turn back to normal, and started to look for the other switch that would help them get outta the area. They heard the Projectionist behind them and started to run once again. Lucky, they found the switch and pull it, making the lights turn off. The lights slowly turn back on and Danny and Jazz couldn't see that the Projectionist.
"Where did it...?" Jazz asked looking around.
"It gone?" Danny asked confuse.
Danny and Jazz look over the balcony and didn't see the Projectionist anywhere. Which confuse them them. They walk back the stairs and step into the ink. They look around to make sure the Projectionist wasn't going to jump outta nowhere, when they notices another tape recorder. Danny carefully walk over to it and press play.
"I believe there's something special in all of us. With true inner strength, you can conquer even your biggest challenges. You just have to believe in yourself and remain honest, motivated, and above all, who you really are.
Ok, let's stop it right there. I can only do so many takes of this trash a day. And tell the guys in writing I want more use of the word dreaming in every message. Keep railing on that, get it? Dreaming! Dreaming! Dreaming! People just eat up that kind of slop. Hmm what? It's still on? Well, turn it off, damn it!"
"Wow, what a moron. Didn't even know the recorder was still on until some pointed it out to him." Danny laugh.
"At least we know his true colors. Come on Danny, let's get outta here before the Projectionist comes back." Jazz said giggle, before reminding him.
Danny nodded and the two walk back to the stairs that lead them back to Bendy Land. Just as they reach the stairs, they heard the screech and saw the Projectionist had appear out of nowhere. They ran upside and notices that the door was shut. No no other choice, they ran inside the Miracle Station. They thought they were safe until they notices that Projectionist was look at them.
"He knows we're in here?!" Jazz said.
"Crap! Now what do we do?" Danny asked.
The Projectionist reach for them when the area started to look weird. But what really surprise them is that Ink Bendy appear and punch the Projectionist. It return a punch of it own and the two traded blows until Ink Bendy lift the Projectionist up where it struggle before it went limp. The area return to normal and the Projectionist was now on the ground and Ink Bendy rip it head off. Jazz gasp as Ink Bendy threw the projector at the Miracle Station making her let out a louder gasp. Danny cover her mouth but it was too late. Ink Bendy seem to heard something and lean down to see Danny and Jazz inside the Miracle Station. It growl at them, before pick up the Projectionist's body and started to walk away.
Danny and Jazz remain in the Miracle Station, even after the ink shadows disappear. They were scare and confuse. What just happen? Did the Ink Demon save them? If so, why? Were the many questions running through their minds. Finally, Danny open the door and the siblings step out. They notices the projector on the ground spitting ink and a large trail of ink that lead to the door that was bend and knock off. The two look at each again.
"What...the...Hell!" Danny shouted.
"It didn't go after us again! We were sitting ducks and Ink Bendy left us alone!" Jazz shouted as well.
"There is something strange about that imposter." Bendy said thinking about it.
"Indeed." Alice agree.
Everyone just stands there, or in the case of Bendy and Alice they floated there, trying to figure what just happen. Finally something snap them outta of it.
"Danny? Jazz? Are you okay?" Bobby voice call out.
"Bobby? Are you feeling better?" Jazz asked as he step closer.
"Yeah, like I said, the Miracle Station can heal me pretty quickly. But what about you? I saw the ink shadows and was worry that the Ink Demon had found you. Glad to see I was wrong." He said smiling.
"Well in a way you were wrong. The Ink Demon did find us but it kill the Projectionist and notices us inside the Miracle Station but left us alone." Jazz explain.
"Really? That's very odd." Bobby said thinking.
Danny and Jazz just stood there before grabbing their heads and let out a scream as they couldn't understand a thing. After that the two walk off need to sit down and rest before continuing. Bobby stood there until Boris floated up to him.
"Should we tell them?" He asked.
"Not yet. It too soon. I do feel sorry for dragging them into this though." Bobby answer.
"Can't I at least tell Bendy and Alice?" Boris asked again.
"No, if you tell them then they will tell Danny and Jazz. I'll tell them when the time is right." Bobby said.
"If you say so." Boris said and Bobby went to find them.
Danny and Jazz had already open the Haunted House, but were sitting in front of it. Not just waiting for Bobby, but trying to figure out what was wrong with this place.
"Danny? Jazz? Are you okay?" Bobby asked once he reach them.
"No, it this goddamn place. Everytime we think we understand this place, it throws more curveballs at us." Danny groan.
"We not sure how much of this place we can take. We feel like we're going to lose our minds here!" Jazz added.
"Danny! Jazz! Calm down! I don't understand this place too, but we can't keep trying to figure everything we come across. It best to let it be for now. Beside we need to save Ink Boris from Ink Alice." Bobby said.
Danny and Jazz sigh before nodding. They three turn and walk inside the Haunted House and saw some writing on the wall.
"Turn Back!"
"We should we? We got a friend to save." Danny said.
Jazz and Bobby nodde and each got into a cart. As soon as they did, they hear Ink Alice voice again.
"And now, the ride truly begins. Come in, and pretend it's all just a bad dream." She said.
Danny growl, almost letting himself transform but he got it under control. Jazz growl as well, but kept herself under control. Bobby shook his head, he knew that Ink Alice was trying to mess with Danny and Jazz. This could be dangerous to them. If Ink Alice keep this up, then there will be second Ink Demon and even a Ink Angel that could be more dangerous than the ones that are here nows.
Ink Alice continue to talk as the rode through Haunted House seeing many ghost or skeletons pop of of graves, but none of three teens were scare.
"It's a funny thing. How so much can fall apart so fast. We never really had control at the studio. Either you in someone's pocket, or you were putting someone else into yours. I just wanted what was promised to me. I just wanted to be beautiful! Surely you can understand that. Ink Demon Child, Fake Angel... Why are you here? We're all dying to find out. Do you just enjoy the terror of the drop into hell? Because if that's the case... Hang on tight. I've got a surprise..." She said as the door open to a new room.
The room was full of of some haunted pictures but was highly unfinished. There were still stuff, that was for the room they guess, was in the middle of the room. They rode pass it and saw another door open to nothing but darkness. Just as Danny's cart reach it, two huge glove hands reach out and grab it. Danny felt Jazz's and Bobby's Carts hit his and look up to to see something that scare him. In front of him was indeed Ink Boris, the one they came to save, but it was too late. He could see his chest was cut open meaning that Ink Alice already took his heart.
"Ink Boris? No, what did she do to you?" Danny asked out loud making Jazz and Bobby heard him.
Ink Boris, or Brute Boris now, started to push all three carts back before pushing so hard that they were sent flying into the wall. They stood up and heard Ink Alice again.
"Ha ha ha! Meet the new and improved Boris! I took what I wanted, and in return, I gave him so much more! And this time, there's no Ink Demon, no escape. Boris, tear them apart! Leave nothing!" She laugh evilly.
Danny growl and ink started to drip off him again. Brute Boris walk over to Danny and threw a punch which Danny caught. Brute Boris try to pull away but Danny didn't let go.
"Ink Alice, you have push me too far! No Ink Demon? Guess what, there is a Ink Demon here! ME! After we save Ink Boris from this monstrous fate, I'm coming after you and rip out your HEART!" Danny roar and turn into his Ink Demon form.
He punch Brute Boris so hard that he knock him to the other side of them room. Danny wasn't the only one upset. Jazz was too, Ink Boris had been nothing by kind to them. He was one of the first Ink creatures here that help them, became their friend. Ink started dripp off of Jazz as she walk up to Brute Boris, who saw her coming.
"Susie, no Ink Alice, you gone too far! I was hoping for a way to help you see the error of your ways, but I was right earlier. You are too far gone. Then you go and turn our friend into this...this MONSTER?! You are no Angel! You're no Alice. If anyone here is a fake, it you! I'M ALICE ANGEL!" She shouted and turn into her Ink Angel form.
Brute Boris turn to hit her, but Jazz use her wings to fly over it and kick the back of it's head. Brute Boris turn to hit Jazz again, but Danny slam into it, knocking it away. Brute Boris let out a noise that sound like a mix or a roar and pain before changing at them. Danny and Jazz jump out of the way and Brute Boris hit a wall. It turn to attack them before it grab it open chest as ink came out of it. Bobby look down and notices some of the ink had came out in a plie. He quickly ran over and grab it and jump back as Brute Boris try to hit him.
Bobby notices the small machine in the room and rush to it. He place the ink in it and turn the wheel to a pipe and pull the level. The Ink turn into a pipe and Bobby grab it. He turn to see Danny and Jazz fighting Brute Boris. Danny had grab both fists and Jazz had slam into Brute Boris allowing Danny to lift it over him and threw it into the wall that left it shape in it. Brute Boris got up and charge at them again, but they dodge and it ran into the wall again. Bobby saw his chance and ran towards Brute Boris.
"Sorry about this bubby." He said and hit it with the pipe.
However, the pipe broke and and Brute Boris knock Bobby into some crates that cover him.
"Bobby!/Bobby!" Danny and Jazz shouted before growling again.
Before anything else could happen, Bobby bust out of the crates and look much different then before. His teeth were sharp and his glove hands now had claws. He also had a tail and wolf ears. Unlike Danny and Jazz, there was no ink dripping off of him.
"You didn't think Danny and Jazz were the only ones with Ink Forms did you? This is my Ink Wolf Form!" Bobby explain.
Brute Boris charge at Bobby who jump over him and tackle it from behind. Brute Boris remain on it's feet and try to grab Bobby. Bobby however, was climbing all over Brute Boris staying out of it reach. Finally Bobby appear in front of Brute Boris face and gave it a headbutt. Bobby jump off and Danny as Jazz step up next to him.
"Bobby when did you get this ink form?" Danny asked confuse.
"Like I said before, I wasn't infected by Ink Bendy ink. I have learn to transform on my own. But now isn't the time. There is only one way to save Ink Boris. As I climb all over his body I could feel that it was rejecting the things Ink Alice put in him. We have no choice but to put him down to free him from this suffering." Bobby explain.
"If that what needs to be done, then let's do it." Jazz said feeling sad for what they are about to do.
"Sorry about this Ink Boris." Danny added and the three charge at Brute Boris.
Brute Boris try to punch them but the three spit up. Jazz flew in and land a punch on it face. Brute Boris try to hit Jazz but she flew back to dodge. Danny was able to jump on it back, making Brute Boris try to reach for him. Bobby waste no time in running over to Brute Boris and put his claws inside of Brute Boris open chest and pull out some ink, making Brute Boris cry out in a mixer of roar and pain. Bobby ran back to the small machine and made another pipe as Danny and Jazz kept Brute Boris busy. Bobby rush back and landed a hit with the pipe.
Brute Boris slam the ground, knocking all three away away. Jazz was able to use her wings to stop herself as Bobby land on all four. Danny was able to land on his feet and notices that carts they rode were coming inside the room.
"Ink Alice is trying to help Ink Boris out by sending in those carts." Dany call out to the other two.
"She must be trying to help Ink Boris kill us." Jazz added.
"That's not going to happen! We need to strike him all at once!"Bobby said.
The three stood ready and watch Brute Boris grab the cart and threw it at them. They dodge and Brute Boris grab another cart and threw it. Jazz had flew over to Danny and lift him into the air, making the cart miss him.
"Thanks Jazz!" Danny said to his sister.
"Any time Danny." Jazz smile.
Brute Boris grab a third cart and threw at them. Bobby quickly rush over and push them out of he way. He then notices Brute Boris grab his chest.
"Everyone attack now!" Bobby shouted.
All three jump at Brute Boris and land their own hit. Danny, a punch. Jazz, a kick. And finally, Bobby, a scratch. The attack did it, Brute Boris made new sound that sounded like it was coughing before falling over.
"No! No! No! No!... Why can't you ever just die?!" Ink Alice shouted, letting the teen know she was watching the fight.
They ignore her and crowded around Ink Boris. They watch him disappear into ink that he came from and bow their heads. Jazz then heard some screaming and saw Ink Alice coming at them.
"Danny! Bobby! Incoming!" Jazz said and the three got ready to fight again.
Just as Ink Alice reach them, something come out of the chest of Ink Alice surprising her and the three teens. Whatever come out of Ink Alice chest has remove itself and Ink Alice fell to the ground now dead. The teens had follow Ink Alice fall and then heard something hitting some metal. They look back up and saw another Alice Angel and another Boris! The two groups look at each other. Finally Danny broke the silence.
"Who are you?"
