A different return to the studio - BATIM fanfiction

Prologue

Henry was out with a few friends from the studio one of which was Sammy Lawrence. The Music Department Director. The second was his friend Susie Campbell. She also worked in the studio. She was the Ex-voice actress of Alice Angel. Since Joey said that the new girl Alison Pendle would take over the vice actresses roll. Then the final one was Norman Polk. He was the Head and the main projector department.

Then there were Henry. He is the head of department for the animation area. Sammy, Susie and Norman started coughing into there hands at the table.

The three off them said to Henry "If you would mind us Henry we need to run to the bathroom". The three got up and headed for the bathroom leaving Henry at the table alone.

Henry sighed as half of his co-workers have been coughing since Joey got that odd Ink Machine installed. Pipes have been installed all over the studio and most of them have burst and covered almost everyone in ink. But it does wash off. Luckily for Henry he hasn't fallen victim to the coughing or better yet being covered in ink by a leaky pipe.

Henry said to himself "I should go check up on Norman and Sammy". Henry stood up and walked over to the male bathrooms in the restaurant. He pushed the door open the sounds of throwing up could be heard from two locked toliet stalls. But it didn't sound normal.

Henry looked at the sinks and saw two sinks had ink droplets in the basins. He jumped when he heard the two stalls open and out stumbled Sammy and Norman. Both looked paler than a ghost and had ink stains around their mouths.

Henry then said "Oh my god! Are you two alright?" Sammy said "Of course we are fine Henry". Henry sighed and said "is that sarcasm?" Norman then said "yes it seems it was". Sammy looked at Norman and then said "Henry, you know that awful ink machine Joey installed in the studio". Henry then said "yes the ones that constantly burst when humans walk under them! Yes I have why?"

Sammy then looked at Henry and said "have you gotten a pipe burst over you covering you in ink yet?" Henry then said "no! Luckily but I think I'm the only one that that hasn't happened too yet. Thank god!" 

Sammy looked at Norman and said "Henry, get someone to check on Susie and call a cab or something. I don't think me, Susie or Norman can really walk right now in our condition".

Henry then said "can you at least get over to the table again?". Sammy and Norman looked at each other and said "we can try". Suddenly a woman was screaming outside the toilets. Henry exited to check leaving Sammy and Norman in the room. Sammy looked at Norman and said "He won't be lucky soon. The ink will get him. Like the rest of us". Norman sighed and said "ahem, Mr cultist is showing in public". Sammy shook his head and both him and Norman tried to help each other get back to the seats.

Meanwhile Henry asked the woman what was going on. The woman replied "There is a girl in the bathroom throwing up ink". Henry then said to himself "it's happened to her aswell". Then Henry held the woman's and and pleaded to go in and escort the girl back to his table. The woman agreed and ran back in.

Henry got his phone and called his friend Grant to help him. Grant then said "sorry I ugh can't". Henry asked "why can't you?" Grant then said "I'm kinda throwing up ink at the minute in my toliet". Henry froze is this happening to everyone in his workplace right now. Henry then said "well ring the others and ask I they are doing the same! I'm fine at the minute". Grant said he will an hung up.

Henry rang for a cab and they said it will take a few minutes to get there Henry sighed in relief and said alright. He hung up as Norman and Sammy held onto each other trying to get back to the table. By this time the Whole customers and staff were terrified so they all immediately left.

A couple of minutes later the woman came out with Susie. The woman asks "where is everyone stranger?" Henry then said "ah, sorry. My name is Henry Stein head of the animation department for Joey Drew Studios". The woman's eyes lit up and said "As, the Henry Stein". Henry shrugged it of with "uh, yeah". The woman said "I'm such a big fan can I get an autograph. In fact aren't you all heads of departments in Joey Drew Studios". Susie frowned and said "those three are I'm just the ex-voice actress for Alice Angel".
