At the Kettle Cottage, were walking into their bedroom. Mugman was mad.
"Mugsy, I'm sorry I dropped that lit firecracker down your pants." Cuphead said. "In my defense, I thought you'd think it was funny."
"Yeah, hilarious." Mugman said with sarcasm. He sits on his bed and instantly regrets it after feeling the sting on his bum where the firecracker burned.
Cuphead winces. "Ouch," he said.
"After all this trauma, I think I deserve a little treat." Mugman said, smiling.
"Ooh! A treat?" Cuphead said. His interest piqued.
"Yeah. A treat for me." Mugman clarified. "Now turn around and don't look. Well, go ahead and turn around."
"But why?" Cuphead asked.
"Just do it!" Mugman shouted.
Cuphead turned around and walked across the room. Mugman then goes under the bed and digs around. Cuphead looks back and sees Mugman pull out a jack-o-lantern bag and place it on the bed.
Cuphead's jaw drops. "Wait a minute, you still have Halloween candy?" he asked.
"I said don't look!" Mugman said.
"It's September! How could you possibly not eat your candy for that long?" Cuphead's fists shake.
"It's called self-control." Mugman said as he picked a single piece of candy from the bag.
"Never heard of it." Cuphead said, crossing his arms.
"It's for people who don't give in to every temptation." Mugman said as he slips the candy bag back under the bed before walking out of the room. "You ought to try it sometime." He shuts the door.
In the kitchen, Mugman places the candy on a plate, cuts it carefully, and eats it like it was fine dining.
Meanwhile, upstairs, Cuphead can't help but think about the candy bag under the bed. In his mind, the bag is beckoning him.
"C'mon Cuphead... you know want candy..." the Jack-O-Lantern said.
"Mmmm. I know I want some but it's Mugman's candy..." Cuphead said.
"But Cuphead, it's all very good candy... and there's so many in me, Mugman probably won't even notice if you take one or two..."
"Well, maybe just one..."
Cuphead reaches for the jack-o-lantern, intending to take one candy. But instead, he just flips the bag upside down and lets the candy fall into his screaming mouth.
"Mm! Mm-mm-mm!" Mugman hummed as he took a bite of the chocolate treat.
Cuphead isn't just eating the candy now. He's munching wildly like a starving animal.
Mugman hums melodically as he walks to his room, but after he opens the door, he gasps.
"Cuphead!" Mugman yelled.
"Huh?" Cuphead said, snapping out of his candy craze.
"You ate my candy!?"
Cuphead gasps when he sees the torn wrappers in his hands and smells the chocolate. He looks up at Mugman.
"I'll make it up to you! I'll do anything!" Cuphead pleaded.
"Anything?" Mugman asked, crossing his arms.
"Anything!"
Mugman takes Cuphead to the front door and throws him out.
"Get out!" Mugman yelled.
Cuphead groans after he lands.
"And don't come back until you learn some self-control!" Mugman yelled before he shuts the door.
Cuphead walks away from the cottage. His head hanging low with a sad look on his face as he goes into the forest kicking a pinecone.
"Psst, Cuphead," came a familiar voice. "Cuphead."
The cup looked around but didn't see anyone.
"Whose there?" Cuphead asked.
Suddenly, he feels something brushing against his arm. He turned around and saw a large bush... with yellow eyes looking back at him.
"Cuphead," the bush whispered.
"Bendy? Is that you?" Cuphead asked.
"Shhh!" Bendy hushed the cup before pulling him into the fake bush. "You'll blow my cover,"
"Your cover?" Cuphead whispered.
"Yeah, now tell me, did you see anything or anyone around here?" Bendy asked.
"Like what?"
"Demons, monsters, my dad. Anyone at all?"
"No," Cuphead said, shaking his head. "I didn't see anyone,"
"Are you positive?" Bendy whispered urgingly.
"Yes!" Cuphead softly yelled.
Bendy sighed. "Good." He said. "Wait, where's Mugman?" he asked.
"Don't worry about him, he's back at the cottage." Cuphead said. "And mad at me,"
"You're kidding. What happened this time?"
"I ate all of Mugman's candy. He said I had no self-control and threw me out of the cottage,"
"Really?" Bendy asked. "Sooner than I thought," he muttered.
"What was that?" Cuphead asked.
"I said he really did that?" Bendy lied.
"Yeah. So why are we hiding in a bush?"
"I did something stupid,"
"Like what?"
Bendy began to explain.
FLASHBACK
Bendy was walking down a hallway and was about to pass the kitchen but stopped when he spotted it. In the kitchen, two devil imps were putting away devil's food cake on a silver platter. All that chocolate and whip cream made Bendy's salivate. The imps placed it on the counter. The little devil was about to walk inside.
"Uh, hey Little Boss," Henchman said, walking towards Bendy.
"Oh hi, Henchman." Bendy said, stopping in his tracks.
"Lunch is almost ready." Henchman said.
"Great, I'm itchin' for a burger,"
"Uh, actually, you'll be having something else. Boss's orders."
"What did he order?"
"Grilled fish and steamed broccoli,"
Bendy gaged. "I think I'd rather eat warty frogs,"
"Ah c'mon, it's good for you." Henchman said.
"HENCHMAN!" The Devil called out.
"We better get going." Henchman said.
"You go ahead. I just gotta use the restroom first," Bendy said.
"Okay. Meet us in the dining room,"
Henchman ran and Bendy was about to step into the kitchen.
"Little Boss, don't even think about eating some of that cake." Henchman said. "It's your fathers,"
"Henchman, I wouldn't dream of doing that," Bendy said.
"Bendall, you know what your father will do if you take a bite out of his cake." Henchman warned.
"I'm not crazy enough to eat his cake... or keep him waiting,"
"HENCHMAN!" the Devil called out.
The purple demon ran off.
Bendy walks into the kitchen, grabs a chair, and drags it to the counter.
"I'm not crazy enough to take a bite out of the cake," Bendy said. He steps on the chair and takes the glass cloche. "but no harm in a quick lick, right? Right,"
Bendy stretches out his tongue, intending to take a small lick, but his tongue stretched so much that it wrapped around the entire cake. His face and head split in half and the opening became a monstrous mouth with sharp and he swallowed it in one gulp. The little devil's head melted back to normal and sighed before he realized what he'd just done.
"Uh oh," Bendy said.
END OF FLASHBACK
"And then I ran away." Bendy concluded.
"Hmmm. Was it good cake?" Cuphead asked.
"So good," Bendy sighed. "I guess if Mugman's staying at the cottage, it'll just be the two of us today,"
Cuphead's eyes widen. "Just the two of us," he whispered. A light blush came over his face.
Then Bendy gasped and covered his face.
"What's the matter?" Cuphead asked, the blush fading.
"I was in such a rush I forgot to put my cat disguise on." He takes out a small inkwell from behind his back. "I can draw a nose on real quick,"
Cuphead put his hand over the inkwell.
"You don't have to do that with me, remember?" Cuphead asked. "I like you're normal look,"
"Oh yeah," Bendy said before putting the inkwell away. "But what if we're seen together?"
"Eh, I ain't too worried about it. If anyone's gotta problem I'm sure you can scare them off,"
Bendy chuckled. "You're a weird cup," he said.
"I'm weird?"
"Hell yeah," Bendy said. "But it's why I like you,"
Cuphead's eyes brighten. "You like me?" he asked.
"Sure, you're weird but a lot of fun at times and you're not scared of me. You and Mugman are the first real friends I've had in a long time. I can't thank you enough for that."
The two were silent for a while but then Bendy chuckled nervously.
"I'm sorry, I don't know why I said all that," Bendy said.
"N-no. It's fine," Cuphead said. Then he cleared his throat. "I like you too, Bendy. You're amazing. But I sometimes, I feel–"
"Shh! Did you hear that?" Bendy whispered covering Cuphead's mouth.
There was a rumbling sound outside.
"I knew it, someone's out there," Bendy whispered.
"Let me have a look," Cuphead whispered before peeking. He sees something big rolling in the trees. "What is that?" Cuphead whispered. He crawls out of the bush.
"Don't," Bendy yelled softly, he grabs Cuphead's ankle.
The cup looked around and gasped when he saw a giant peppermint rolling by.
"So beautiful." Cuphead said.
Bendy crawls out of the bush as the peppermint rolls away.
"What's so beautiful?" Bendy asked. "Cuphead?"
"Huh?" Cuphead said in a daze.
"I said what's so-" Bendy said but stopped midsentence when the peppermint came back and rolled around them. "beautiful..."
The peppermint spun around them over and over, making the boys dizzy, until it rolled away slowly.
"Hey... where are you going?" Bendy said in a daze.
Cuphead and Bendy followed the peppermint that rolled into a tall hole in a tree. They walk into the tree. It was pitch black at first but then they walked into a blinding light. Once their eyes adjusted, they were met by an unbelievable site.
They had stepped into a land made entirely of candy. But not just candy, there was also cake, ice cream cones, cupcakes, cotton candy clouds in the sky, and chocolate fountains.
The boys look around wide eyed and their mouths hang agape.
A gentle fantastical music plays as they walk down the candy road.
"La-la la-la la ~"
"Welcome to this land of sugar ~ Everything is simply grand ~"
"Everything is super yummy ~ In this place called Sugarland ~"
"La-la la-la, la-la la-la...~"
"What is this place?" Cuphead wondered.
"I have no idea, but it smells great," Bendy said.
A feminine giggle can be heard.
"Didn't you hear the song? It's Sugarland." Came a female voice. The boys turn around and see something pink jump out of the pink cake castle.
It was a skinny woman with pink skin, blue eyes, and curled maroon hair. She's wearing a red and white striped top with a dark pink skirt that reaches the floor, white gloves, and an ice cream cone hat with a white fluffy feather. And she's holding a long candy cane.
"My name is Baroness Von Bon Bon, and today is your lucky day." She said walking towards the boys. "You get to eat all the sweet treats you desire."
The boys just stare at the woman for a second before the little devil broke the silence.
"Yeah, this is a trap." Bendy said, grabbing the cup's hand.
"Goodbye, lady," Cuphead said.
The boys turn around and walk hand in hand away from the baroness.
"Wait, where are you going?" Baroness asked, walking after them. "I just offered you all the sweet treats you desire. Ain't you gonna eat my sweets?"
"I don't think so, lady," Cuphead said.
"Yeah, we're not that stupid," Bendy said. "You want us to eat candy till we're plump, and then you'll shove us in an oven."
"You just wanna eat us." Cuphead concluded.
"This is funny. You're funny, funny kids." Baroness said before laughing.
Bendy stops walking and looks right at the woman.
"Look me in the eye and tell me you don't eat kids," Bendy said.
The baroness leans down and looks the little devil right in the eye.
"I'm a baroness and I don't eat little children. I only eat sweet treats." She pulls out a cupcake, kisses it, and then munches it down.
Bendy flickers his tongue a moment before backing away.
"What do you think?" Cuphead whispered.
"She looked me in the eye and all I can smell on her is sugar," Bendy said. "She seems to be telling the truth,"
"Oh! Well, in that case, I'm sorry for the misjudgment, The Baroness." Cuphead said.
"Oh please. We're friends now. Call me The." She said. She giggles before walking around the candy. "Now, I gotta say, I admire how you both resisted my very tempting offer. Most disgusting children just can't resist." She laughs.
"You got a real creepy way about you, lady." Cuphead said.
"I don't get out much. In fact, I can't leave Sugarland on account of an ancient curse. But that's a story for another time."
"Why would anyone want to leave this place?" Cuphead asked.
"Yeah, it's amazing," Bendy said.
"Exactly." Baroness said.
"And we can really eat all the candy we want?" Bendy asked.
"That's right," Baroness said.
"And there's no weird catch?" Bendy asked.
"Well..." Baroness trailed off.
"I knew it! What is it?" Bendy asked.
"It's not a catch. There are just three simple rules that you must never break. Rule number one! Tell no one about Sugarland. Rule number two! Never steal any of the sweets outside of Sugarland. And rule number three! Eat all the candy you desire, just not my candy castle. Not even a teensy-weensy bite."
"That's it?" Bendy asked.
"That's it," Baroness said.
Bendy hummed.
"Perhaps, some chocolate can convince you?" Baroness said, presenting him with a small bonbon in her palm.
The little tentatively plucked the bonbon from the baroness and took a bite. The amazing taste on his tongue hit him immediately. He finishes the candy, he runs over, rips a gumdrop from the ground and starts eating.
"Baroness, I take back everything I thought about ya'," Bendy said between bites.
"Aw, thank you," Baroness said before turning to look at Cuphead, "And how about you?"
"There's so many tasty stuff here, I don't know where to start," Cuphead answered.
"Take your time, just remember rule three,"
"Don't worry I won't touch your castle,"
"Oh, I'm not worried. Even if you might find it..." then she whispers. "...irresistible."
Cuphead looks at the sparkling pink sugar castle.
"It is a tasty-looking castle." The cup said.
"I'll just turn my back in case you want to sneak a bite or pocket some candy." Baroness said.
"Maybe just a teensy-weensy bite." Cuphead said, his eyes spinning with red, pink, and white hypnotic rings. The baroness is smiling behind him. "Wait!" Cuphead's eyes return to normal, and he shakes his head. "No teensy-weensy. We gotta go! Bendy!"
Bendy was stuffing his face with candy, his eyes spinning with red, pink, and white rings, when Cuphead wraps his arms around him and pulls him back.
"We gotta go, Bendy!" Cuphead said. "See ya lady," he said, running to the exit.
Baroness doesn't try to stop or follow them.
"They'll be back. Toodle-oo." She said before laughing menacingly.
Cuphead is panting while running and holding Bendy.
"Let me go! I need more candy!" Bendy yelled.
Cuphead tried to put some distance between them and the tree before Bendy wriggled out of his hold. Bendy tried to run back for the tree but Cuphead managed to catch him and tackle him to the ground.
"Bendy, you gotta snap out of it!" Cuphead yelled, shaking Bendy's shoulders.
The little devil was still in a trance and snarling.
"Sorry about this buddy," Cuphead said. He raises his hand and slaps Bendy across the face.
Bendy's head spins before it slows and snaps back into place. His yellow eyes were back to normal.
"Ow! What the- Ow!" Bendy yelled, he held his cheek.
"Sorry Bendy, but I had to wake you up somehow," Cuphead said before backing away.
"Wake me up from what?" Bendy asked, rubbing his cheek.
"I think you were in one of those trance-things. You ate the candy and wouldn't stop."
"Candy? So, that Sugarland place was real? I wasn't just dreaming?"
"Wipe your lips,"
Bendy wiped his lips, purple candy residue now smeared on his glove. He gasped and wiped the stuff on the grass beneath him.
"You ate so much sugar and it made you crazy," Cuphead said. "But we're fine now and we got outta there before we broke any of her rules."
Bendy froze and his eyes went wide with worry.
"What?" Cuphead asked.
Bendy pulls out a lollipop from behind his back.
"Oh. Well that's not so-" Cuphead said but stopped as soon as Bendy pulled out a big candy cane, a big peppermint, some giant chocolate bonbons, and a giant half-eaten gumdrop.
"Maybe she won't noticed?" Bendy shrugged nervously.
"And if she does?" Cuphead wondered worriedly.
The two looked worried but then Bendy froze.
"We don't have to worry about it," Bendy said smiling.
"What do you mean?" Cuphead asked.
"Think about it. She can't leave Sugarland, right? And she doesn't eat kids. I'll just be careful and avoid the baroness next time,"
"Hmm, makes sense to me," Cuphead said. "Wait, you'd want to go back there?"
"It's a world made entirely out of candy, what do you think," Bendy pockets all the candy he took. "It was really good. What did you eat?" he asked.
"I had..." Cuphead said but then he gasped. "Wait, I didn't eat any candy. I did that self-control thing Mugman was talking about. He's gonna be so proud of me! C'mon!"
Cuphead and Bendy ran to the cottage. They rush up the stairs and then Cuphead kicks the door open with Bendy behind him.
"Hey, Mugsy, I didn't eat any candy." Cuphead said excitedly. "The temptation was strong, but I- Ooh! You're still upset, huh?" he asked.
Mugman was sitting on the bed with a frown on his face.
"Of course I'm still upset and will be until you replace what you stole!"
"That won't be an issue," Bendy said. He slips something in Cuphead's hand behind his back. "Go on Cuphead, give him some candy," he said, pushing the cup forward.
"That candy was supposed to last me until next Halloween," Mugman said. "If you think some candy is going to-" he stopped talking when Cuphead hands him a giant chocolate bonbon.
"I'm sorry, you were saying," Cuphead said smiling.
Mugman stuttered. "This can't be real, this thing is bigger than my jack-o-lantern." He said.
"Try it if you don't believe it," Bendy said, crossing his arms and smiling.
Mugman squinted his eyes and took a small bite of the chocolate without breaking eye contact. His eyes went when the chocolate taste hit his tongue.
"Oh my gosh," Mugman said before taking a bigger bite of the chocolate.
"Believe it now?" Bendy asked.
Mugman nodded. "This is delicious," he said before finishing the chocolate.
"And that's just one piece. See, Bendy and I found this land where everything's made of— Ooph,"
Bendy elbowed Cuphead's side and cleared his throat.
"Rule number one, remember," Bendy whispered.
Cuphead could hear the baroness's voice echo in his mind.
"Rule number one, tell no one about Sugarland."
Cuphead whimpers and covers his mouth.
"What? A land made of what?" Mugman asked.
"Uh..." Cuphead chuckles nervously. "The Baroness did say not to tell you."
"But we tell each other everything," Mugman said.
"Mugman, trust us, this has to be something just between me and Cuphead." Bendy said.
"Oh, just between you and Cuphead, huh," Mugman said with a glare. "Well, that ain't gonna work this time. I'm not letting this go until you tell what you're hiding,"
Bendy's eyes glowed reddish orange and he growled. Mugman gulps and shrinks under the little devil's gaze.
"Wait, wait, wait, Mugsy I'll tell you," Cuphead said.
"But Cuphead," Bendy said.
"We don't have to worry about the baroness, remember? That's what you said before." Cuphead said. "Mugman, if I told you there was a place where everything's made of candy, would you wanna go there?"
"Of course I'd want to." Mugman said. "Wait, who's the Baroness?"
"A creepy lady we need to avoid." Bendy said.
"But we won't be avoiding her candy!" Cuphead said.
"Wait, you two expect me to believe that there's a whole world made of..."
Bendy and Cuphead take Mugman to Sugarland.
"Candy!" Mugman yells in excitement. He starts shivering seeing all the sweets.
"Now do you forgive me?" Cuphead asked with a smile.
Mugman nods. "Uh-huh. Uh-huh."
"Welcome to this land of sugar~ Welcome to this land of sweets. ~"
"Where the streets are lined with goodies, In this land of tasty treats. ~"
Cuphead, Bendy and Mugman dive off a frosting cliff and eat their way down. They eat peppermint trees down to the roots.
"Have a stick of sugar candy~ Fill your mouth with sugar balls. ~"
"Have a little or a lot~ Better yet, try them all. ~"
The boys jump and swim in the hot fudge springs. They swallow giant bonbons, chaw breakers, and gumballs whole.
"Welcome to this land of sugar ~ Everything is simply grand ~"
"Everything is super yummy ~ In this place called Sugarland! ~"
The boys walk on the candy road, looking stuffed and intoxicated with all the sugar they ate.
"Oh, mama." Cuphead said.
"This definitely beats fish and broccoli by a landslide." Bendy said slurring.
"I don't know what you mean by that but I'll— ...take your word for it." Mugman said with a hiccup and then laughed.
"We should probably go before the Baroness shows up." Cuphead said slurring.
Bendy starts chuckling. "Yeah cause..." Bendy said slurring. "You broke rule number one. I broke rule number two. And Mugman's breaking rule number three right now." He laughed.
Cuphead gasped. Mugman had taken a big bite out of the pink castle. Bendy gasped.
"Mugman, no!" Cuphead yelled. "Don't eat the castle!"
"It was only teensy-weensy." Mugman said.
The Baroness laughs from the top of her castle. The boys look up and see her.
"Now all three of you broke a rule." Baroness said. "Naughty, naughty!" she teased.
"The Baroness!" Cuphead said nervously.
"Hmm. She doesn't seem so creepy." Mugman said.
Baroness starts laughing hysterically.
"Oh. Yeah, I see it now." Mugman said.
"Let me guess, you suddenly changed your mind and now you're gonna eat us. Right?" Bendy said.
"Blech! For the last time, I don't eat disgusting children. Only sweet treats." Baroness said.
The boys sigh.
POP
"Cuphead, what happened to your straw?" Mugman shouted.
Cuphead and Bendy gasped. Cuphead's straw looked like a red gummy worm.
"My straw!" Cuphead said. Then his arms and hands turned into gummy candy as well. "My arms! Bendy, Mugman, help me!"
"How about you help me instead!" Bendy yelled. His fur and face change into different shades of brown. His limbs now stuck to his body and his yellow eyes and bowtie became glossy. He had become a solid dark chocolate devil.
"Don't look at me." Mugman said as his body slowly coated with gingerbread. He soon has frosting and gumdrops decorating his body. "I said, don't look at me!" he was now a gingerbread Mugman.
Cuphead popped into a fully formed gummy cup.
The three boys screamed.
Baroness giggled. "Now you're delicious!" she said. Her eyes were now red, and her teeth were razor sharp.
The boys screamed again.
The woman laughs menacingly as her castle suddenly turns into a monster. The castle roars and screeches as it lifts its hands up and reaches for the boys.
The boys scream as they hop away but the castle just chases after them.
"Hey, look! It's the way out!" Cuphead yelled.
The boys can see the tree that leads to the forest.
"We won't make it with the castle on our tail!" Bendy yelled.
The castle roars again. Just then, the giant peppermint rolls up next to the boys.
"I got an idea!" Cuphead yelled.
The gummy cup manages to push the gingerbread Mugman and chocolate Bendy onto the peppermint. And then jumps on it. The candy boys stick to the peppermint candy.
"We're getting out of here!" Mugman yelled.
Cuphead laughed before blowing a raspberry at the baroness. Bendy makes a rude expression on his face. All three boys laugh as the peppermint rolls away from the castle towards the exit tree. It manages to outrun the castle and rolls closer to the tree. But as it rolls through the exit, the boys get stuck against the tree hole. They slide off and land on the ground. Cuphead and Bendy hop into the tree hole.
"We're gonna make it!" Cuphead yelled. "Come on!"
"C'mon Mugman!" Bendy said. "Mugman? Mugman!"
Cuphead and Bendy stop and see gingerbread Mugman flat on the ground. Unable to get up.
"Cuphead. Bendy. Leave me. Save yourselves." Mugman said.
"Oh, okay." Cuphead said before hopping away.
"Cuphead!" Mugman and Bendy yelled.
"Alright, alright. I'm coming back." Cuphead said.
The Baroness's laugh echoes, "I'm coming to get you, boys!" she yelled. Her castle roars as it comes closer.
"Quick, grab my hand!" Cuphead said urgently.
"I can't reach!" Mugman cried out.
Baroness laughs maniacally and her castle roars.
"Almost there!" Cuphead said, pushing Mugman up.
"It's working!" Mugman said before falling on his face.
"Aw, nuts." Cuphead said.
"Here, try it again," Bendy said.
The castle jumps and roars. Cuphead and Bendy just managed to help Mugman up when the castle came down. When it lands, a wave of frosting emerges from the ground, and it pushes the candy boys out to through the exit.
"Aw, licorice sticks! They escaped?" Baroness yelled. She exclaims angrily. "They looked so tasty. But they'll be back. They always come back." she laughs menacingly.
Cuphead, Mugman, and Bendy are riding the huge wave of frosting but a boulder splits the wave in half. Cuphead and Mugman rode one wave and Bendy rode the other.
"Okay, I guess this is where we split, see you fellas later!" Bendy shouted as his wave flowed away.
"See ya Bendy!" Cuphead and Mugman shouted.
Meanwhile, down in the Underworld, The Devil was sitting on his throne writing down some paperwork when Henchman flew towards him.
"Anything?" The Devil said.
"Uh, I've checked all the usual places at least twice, but I can't find the prince anywhere," Henchman said.
"I don't get it. Where has Bendall disappeared to? I just hope he hasn't gotten into any trouble."
Hardly had The Devil finished when the ground started shaking and the wave of frosting flows down the steps towards the throne. The Devil spots something brown riding the wave, screaming, and flying towards him. He uses his pitchfork to stop the thing from hitting him.
The thing groans.
He uses telekinesis to turn it around and sees a familiar face and eyes molded in the chocolate. He gasped.
"Bendall?" The Devil said in shock.
Bendy laughs nervously. "Nice catch Dad," he said.
Cuphead and Mugman's wave somehow managed to return right back into their bedroom at the kettle cottage.
"Ha! We sure showed her!" Cuphead said.
"Except we're still candy." Mugman said.
"Oh, right." Cuphead said. "Eh, I ain't too worried about it. Now that the Baroness is gone, we don't have to worry about being eaten."
The boys seemed confident that they were safe now... that feeling dies down when they hear heavy breathing and slurping. It's Elder Kettle with the candy entranced look in his eyes as he looks at the boys.
"Just a teensy-weensy—" Kettle sighed.
"Elder Kettle, no!" Cuphead and Mugman yelled.
They spend much of their night avoiding Kettle.
And as for our favorite little devil? Bendy was taken to the Freezer, the only cold place in the Underworld, so his chocolate body wouldn't melt. The Devil was wearing a large fur coat. Bendy told his father all about Sugarland and the baroness who turned naughty kids into candy to eat.
"Fascinating. I've heard rumors about this place, but I thought it was just a myth." The Devil said. "Then it must be true." Then he sighed. "At least you managed to escape and all on your own too."
"That's right." Bendy lied. "So, does this mean I'm off the hook about the cake?"
The Devil couldn't help but chuckle.
"Well, I was going to ground you, but I hope getting turned into candy and nearly getting devoured by a monster candy castle has taught you a lesson?"
"Oh, it has Dad. Really, it has," Bendy said.
"Good, but if you really want to make up to me. I'll need you to run an errand for me tomorrow." The Devil said with a grin.
"Sure, Dad, what is it?" Bendy asked.
"I'll tell you right after dinner. Ah, here it comes now," The Devil said. Henchman flies into the room with a serving tray and on the tray is a pile of broccoli. "With all that sugar you ate, some vegetables might do you some good,"
"You've got to be kidding?" Bendy asked. He flinched when he saw the serious look in his father's eyes. "I mean, I would if I could, but I can't use my arms."
"Oh that won't be an issue," The Devil picks up a fork, stabs a broccoli with it and moves it towards Bendy. "Train or plane?" he asked.
Bendy groaned. "Train," he answered.
"Chuga, Chuga, chew, chew," The Devil said. "Here comes the train. Open the tunnel."
Bendy grumbles before eating the broccoli.
"Everything is simply grand ~ Everything is super yummy ~ In this place called Sugarland ~"
