Chapter 4
Your P.O.V
"Return to the lift my kitten and errand boy. We have work to do."
We walked back to the lift while Alice continued torturing the poor butcher gang member. After getting Boris we walked back to the main room with the 'She's quite a gal!' sign. Then her horrid voice spoke again,
"I'll make this simple. Look for the valve panels. Turn the little wheels. Then bring me their power cores."
"Oh, and please don't make me regret sparing you. I can always change my mind."
Suddenly a tube opened revealing a plunger. Henry went up and grabbed it.
"Let's go Y/N"
As I got up to walk Alice spoke once more,
"No. The kitten stays here."
Henry glared at the door before speaking,
"Fine."
The board blocking his was suddenly dropped and he walked off towards the lift.
"You know there are so few rules to our world now. So little truths. But there is one rule we all know and respect down here. Beware the ink demon."
So as Henry walks off I'm left alone on the steps to a psycho's lair. After a few moments I laid down on the stairs and closed my eyes.
"Why are you so different?" Alice asked
"And what do you mean by that." I spat
"Oh? A feisty one are we?"
"I'm guessing I'm the first neko you have met."
"Yes, but I remember you from all those years ago. Bendy chasing you through the halls, trying to catch up to you. Your laugh was so innocent, and your smile could light up the night sky."
I blushed hearing her complementing me.
"But that was before you left. Before he lied to us."
Who is the 'he' she is talking about? Joey, Sammy, or perhaps Henry?
"Why oh why did you leave?"
This time her voice sounded closer, as if she was whispering in my ear. My eyes shot open only to be met with Alice's face right over mine. With one hand she pins my arms over my head and she grabs my chin. She chuckles before speaking,
"Hehe, your so cute."
Her hand holding my chin travels up to my ears before gently rubbing them. The action made me let out a soft purr. Suddenly the rubbing stopped and my wrists were freed. My eyes opened but this time Alice wasn't there.
"What the-"
"Have you met him? The Ink Demon? They say he hears everything."
"I wouldn't run so fast if I were your friend. You never know what will draw him in."
My eyes widen fearing Henry's safety. A few minutes later Henry returns with the power cores.
"You're quite the efficient little errand boy, aren't you?"
Henry just walked up to the drop box and put them in.
"Have you seen them? The swollen ones?" Alice asks
"They're just stuffed full of extra thick ink. It makes me sick!"
Yet, you are made out of the same ink, I thought
"And yet..It's the perfect thing for keeping myself together."
"If you're going to catch them, you're going to have to move quietly. Here use this."
The tube opens once again revealing a large syringe. I cringe at the sight. I was never the one for needles.
"Oh, and by the way."
Henry looks in the direction of Alice's voice.
"The kitten cannot join you on this task either."
Henry bawled his fists. Alice laughed at his little motion. I grabbed his hand and he immediately unballed his fists. I put my hand on his cheek and smiled,
"I'll be fine just...be safe."
Henry chuckled, "Okay"
He walked away going to find the stuffed ink monsters.
"Grr...what do you see in him?"
I turned around and Alice was there with her arms crossed glaring daggers at me.
"Obviously things that you can't see."
She started to walk towards me, but then she suddenly stopped. She walked back into her lair, her door slamming shut. About 15 minutes later Henry returned but his face was pale.
"Henry are you ok?"
"Y-yeah just saw the Ink Demon."
My eyes widen. He walked past me and put the extra ink into the drop box.
"Good, now my machines are hungry, gather me some spare parts."
I walked beside Henry planning to help him. But a plank blocked our path.
"Alice." I stated
I sighed and walked back to the steps. Once there the board moved to let Henry through. What is up with her? She won't let me go anywhere with Henry!
Timeskip until Henry comes back
My ears picked up on footsteps. I turned my head and Henry was there with a pale face and shaking knees. He walked up to the drop box and put the spare parts in the box.
"You see those grinning demons? Let's remove them shall we?"
I looked at Henry confused. Grinning demons? What was she talking about? The tube opened revealing an axe.
"Oh and this time the little kitten gets to go with you~" Alice cooed
"Finally" Henry muttered.
As we walked away Henry spoke to me.
"By grinning demons she meant Bendy cutouts."
"Oh, I was worried there for a second."
We walked around destroying all the Bendy cutouts we could see. After destroying all of them Alice spoke through the intercom,
"Now that was fun! Oh! But I forgot to mention....he hates it when I do that. I would hide if I were you."
Suddenly we heard running footsteps. Henry pulled me towards a rectangular box. He opened the door and we got in. It was really cramped our chests were pressed together and I was blushing harder than a tomato. After a few moments Bendy passed our hiding place and we returned to Alice. I stayed up in the lift with Boris while Henry went to Alice's door.
"The disgusting wretches have wandered my halls have been unchecked!!"
Suddenly ink monsters and ink versions of the butcher gang appeared.
"They're trying to drag me back to the darkness! Don't let them take your angel!!"
I watch in horror as Henry had to fight off the monsters with the gent pipe.
"Purge them one by one! Smash them into puddles! Kill them!"
After a few minutes all of them were dead.
"So quiet, Like a welcoming grave. I like the silence don't you?" Alice asked
Henry walked back to the door.
"I hate leaving work unfinished! Fortunately, I have you to pick up the pieces. But you'll have to go even deeper. Down,down,down into the abyss. Take the lift down, say hello to an old friend."
"I'm sending you a little present. A little firepower. Take good care of it. It belonged to someone very special."
With my eyesight I could see the tommy gun in the tube. Henry went to grab it but it soon melted.
"Oops. I forgot. It's a little hard to get a hold of. Oh well. Better luck next time."
Henry soon joined Boris and I on the lift and hit the floor 14 button. A few moments later the lift stops and opens the door. Suddenly out of the corner of my eye I see a light, but it seems to be moving.
"Shhhh......there he is. The Projectionist. Skulking in the darkness. Be sure to stay out of his light, if you don't want trouble. Just bring me back the pieces I need." Alice informs us
Henry looked at me.
"Y/N I want you to stay here with Boris I don't want you getting hurt."
I just nodded and stayed in the lift with Boris as he walked off. After a few moments I heard a loud high pitch shriek. About 5 minutes later Henry returned with the hearts. Alice spoke once more,
"Tell me. Were they still writhing in your hands? Bring them to me now. I don't like to wait."
Then it went quiet. As the lift began to ascend I noticed Boris had his hands over his eyes. He looked scared. I tried to comfort him but it didn't work. The lift stopped at floor 9 so Henry can bring the hearts to Alice. I didn't go with him I don't want to go near that monster again. Why does she even need hearts anyway? And to kill her own kind? That's sick.
"Well it seems we've reached the end of my todo list, my kitten and errand boy."
"I'm not your kitten." I replied loudly
All she did was chuckle.
"I hope you enjoyed our time together. I'll always treasure it. Return to the lift. It's time to go home."
My eyes widen with joy when she said that. Henry quickly walked to the lift excited as much as I was. As we ascended Alice Angel spoke again but with Susie's voice.
"Have you ever wondered what Heaven is like? I like to dream that it's quite beautiful"
Okay why are we talking about this right now? I thought to myself.
"A soft valley of green grass, blanketed by a warm sun. I don't think I'll ever get to see it."
"Are you ready to ascend my little errand boy? The heavens are waiting."
Wait a minute, what about me?! How come I wasn't included in that statement! There is no way I'm staying down here!
Suddenly Alice began to laugh hysterically.
"Did you really think I'd let you steal from me!? Did you really think I'd just let you go?!"
I gulped. the lift began to descend at a very fast speed.
"No, Henry! I know who you are! And I know why you're here! And you will not stop what needs to be done!?"
"Now come down and bring my back my Y/N and Boris!!"
Woah I don't remember belonging to Alice.
"That Boris is the most perfect Boris I've ever seen and I want it! I need it!"
"I need its insides so I can be beautiful again! Don't you understand? Any Y/N belongs to me and only me she IS MINE!! YOU WILL NOT TAKE HER FROM ME!"
"Now give them to me!!"
Boris and I were in the corner huddling together. My ears were pinned to my ears and my tail was in between my legs. I was shaking and my breathing was getting irrational.
"Or better yet, I'll take them!"
"Once.....your....dead!!!!"
Suddenly the lift crashed and I blacked out.
After a few minutes I woke up. I was lying on the ground. My head was hurting, and my vision was still in and out. I noticed Boris waking up Henry, but I heard footsteps coming from behind me. I turned my head and found the owner of the footsteps-Alice. I turned my head back around to try and warn Boris. But suddenly my ankle was grabbed, and then I saw Alice grab the back of Boris overall. Then we were both launched back into the darkness. I felt my head hit a wall and my vision started to have black spots but before I blacked out I heard Henry scream.
"Boris!! Y/N!!!"
Then I fell into the world of darkness.
