Chapter 5: Quest for snacks
~~~
Bendy woke up to an empty nest, again. He looked down to see he had been…tucked in?
Oh, Twist probably left to hunt. She always gets up earlier. Well, at least she’s okay with him sleeping in her nest now. The demoness used to be very uptight about her personal space.
Bendy, wanting to get as much out of today as he could, sprung up and began to tidy up.
He started by cleaning up the empty bacon soup cans and throwing them in the garbage bin.
Then he moved on to the drawings he wasn’t very fond of. Unfinished doodles of the things he’s seen around the studio. He stumbled across a broom and attempted to sweep the floor. He wiped down the counters and tables with a wet rag.
He was quite the efficient little boy.
He went over to his drawing corner and sat at his little drawing table. Bendy would draw the very best artwork to decorate the den. Maybe whoever else comes across the den after they leave would appreciate the drawings as well.
Bendy smiled at the idea of a searcher admiring his work. Such a silly thought.
After a few drawings he hung them up next to the old posters.
Bendy liked those posters. Twist looked so happy in them, not tired. The little demon felt his smile drop a little. How Bendy wished he could help her be a little less tired.
Ah! He could go out and gather supplies by himself! That could work! She’ll be so proud!
So, it was decided. He brought some slugs and one of his dolls for emotional support.
He crawled out of the den and made his way down the long maze-like corridors of the studio. Making sure to put little marks like Twist had taught him, to not get lost.
The toon had managed to find a staircase that led to the upper levels. Bendy made his way up the creaking steps.
“Careful” he reminded himself. “Don’t want to get chased again.”
Bendy wasn’t sure what else to get, other than some bendy bars for himself since they had a successful hunt last week.
The little devil looked for a vending machine everywhere, maybe they were higher up?
Bendy returned to the staircase to venture further up.
The cartoon ascended the flight of stairs. Searching for a few more minutes before he FINALLY found a vending machine!
Depositing a few slugs into the machine, he opened the bottom hatch to retrieve his treats.
He grabbed them all, struggling to balance them and his doll, but he managed.
Excited to get back to the den he scurried off.
Upon his return, the hatch leading into the den flew open. Twist was there, seeming just as surprised as him.
They stared at one another for a good minute. Bendy noticed she was tense.
Finally, she sighed, all tension leaving her body.
Twist frowned at him, gesturing for him to get back inside. Bendy’s previous energy dwindled, and his smile dropped.
Once they were back inside, Twist took the treats from her companion and placed them on the table before facing him once again, arms crossed. Bendy was now worried.
Did he do something wrong? Was she going to hurt him now?
Twist exhaled again before gesturing with her hands, “You can’t leave here on your own.”
“Why?”
Twist paused. Then she signed.
“I do not want you to get lost or chased again.”
Bendy frowned.
“I didn’t get lost though, I put marks to help find my way back.” He signed. “Am I in trouble? Did I do bad?” he was scared she would be crossed, he never wanted to make her mad.
Twist took a deep breath, “Listen, I just don’t want you to get hurt. You might be seen as a threat and I can’t lose you right now, understand?”
This caught the toon off guard. She was worried about him?
“I’m sorry.” He signed quickly. Twist smiled, “It’s okay, I was just a little freaked out when I couldn’t find you that’s all.”
She paused, then signed again, “How about this: You can leave as long as you don’t go too far and as long as you leave a note before you go okay?”
Bendy hopped up and down excitedly and gave Twist a thumbs up.
“Wanna eat the bars I got?” he asked.
“Sure.”

chapter 2: Encounter
~~~
As Twist made her way down the hall, she felt a presence.
Footsteps.
Something is running.
Drawing nearer and nearer.
Around the corner something fell into her line of sight.
Something she was not prepared to see.
The little figure froze, legs shaking, like a little lamb that had been cornered by a wolf.
Twist couldn’t believe what her eye was presenting to her. A small toon with little horns, a bowtie, and adorned in a vest and pants.
Bendy, the little devil darling.
Twist didn’t have time to fully comprehend what was happening before she heard shouting and more footsteps. The larger demon almost missed the flinch of the littler toon. A piper and fisher appeared from the corner and stumbled their way over to the little demon.
Pure fear was all Twist could see in the toons eyes as he was surrounded and desperately looking for a way out.
Twist took no hesitation in stepping between the little devil and his pursuers.
The gang members froze for a second. Presumably mistaking her for the Ink Demon. However, when they realized Twist was not in fact attacking them immediately, they stepped forward boldly to take the first attack.
Twist wasted no time in tearing off the pipers attacking hand and flinging it straight into the fisher’s face, causing them both to stumble.
The little toon stared in absolute horror as the larger demon mutilated his pursuers. He was glad he wasn’t being chased anymore but he feared he may have encountered something much, much worse.
Now looking up from the corpses, Twist met Bendy’s horrified gaze.
She began to stalk towards him, curious about how a perfect Bendy even exists. Well, he wasn’t completely perfect. Some ink was threatening to spill over his face, and he was covered in scratches and wounds that looked fresh and needed tending. She reached out, hoping to get some answers.
Bendy, feeling rightfully threatened, immediately dashed away. Avoiding the claws that reached for him. Fearing for his life, he ignored the searing pain from the burns and cuts he received from those Keepers.
Blinking away tears that blurred his vision and threatened to spill over, Bendy ran and ran. He was not pursued, luckily. Looks like he lost the other demon.
He would have to find a safe hiding spot for now.
It’ll be just like a game, like hide and seek, Bendy tried to cheer himself on.
He just hoped he wont be found.

I forgot i exist, anyway how are you? Do you have a good sleep schedule?(it's important)
If you’re open to requests, could you draw the questers helping to take care of the bunny kids?
Sorry it took so long to answer this 😓😓, I was planning to draw your request to post it but I ended up giving up on the second draft. And I’m always open to requests, it just take some time for me to build up the motivation to answer the ones that I want to 😅
The first draft turned out like this, and I stopped with it because it wasn’t exactly what I was going for. And so it just turned into a Bendystraw drawing, woops? 😶
And here’s the second draft in case you’re wondering what it looks like:
Anyhow, I’m quite alright. And do I have a good sleep schedule? Hmmm I do wonder about that
(Warning: no, I do not)
