Down in the Pride Ring of Hell, there lies the lead capital and biggest metropolis in the underworld, Pentagram City. Here, we will witness the tale of how a kind hearted royal and a powerful toon taught the sinners the path of heavenly redemption. Oh, wait. That's the other book. This is actually the tale of how a toon developed a bond with a band of assassins. But, right now. Our hero, Bendy, was going over things involving his animation studio with his best friend, Lobo.
Bendy: THE STUDIO'S FLOODED!?!?
Lobo: Yep. Apparently, an ink pipe burst while you were in Heaven. The whole place looks like Betty Boop's menstruation.
Bendy: Oh, god. It'll take forever to drain the ink and repair the studio.
Lobo: Well, what are we gonna do for money?
Bendy: I don't know. Business here at the hotel has been slow, and if we don't get cash soon, we'll lose the studio.
Lobo: Hmm, why don't you talk to Ren? He's a doctor, maybe he can get you a job.
Bendy: I don't know, Lo. I mean, I'm sure he's not looking for a nurse. I need something exciting, something brand new. Something like-
Lobo: I.M.P.!
Bendy jumped at his friend's sudden outburst, yelling in pain as he rocketed into the air and hit his head on the ceiling.
Bendy: *lands back in hair* Ow, fuck! Geez Lobo, I know Ren's an imp, don't need the reminder.
Lobo: No, not that. I'm talking about the Immediate Murder Professionals: I.M.P. We went to their place when we took down Doordash, remember?
Lobo gives Bendy a newspaper and points to the alleged ad.
Lobo: They're an assassination company, they help souls like us get payback up on earth. I just saw the ad! You should give them a call.
Bendy: *reads ad* "'Love to kill and want to get paid for it? Come join I.M.P., our family is looking to expand. Seeking...assassins for hire'?" But, I'm not an assassin.
Lobo: Yeah, but I've seen you on the battlefield, Ben. You gotta give it a chance.
Bendy: "Must be good with firearms, knives...' Hmm, this DOES sound intriguing. Didn't think there was a company for assassins.
Lobo: Neither did I, as retarded as they are they get shit done. A friend of mine hired these guys to kill his murderer, they got it done in 2 hours. With you, they'll have to start an express service. C'mon pal, we need this money if we wanna keep animating.
Bendy smiles at his friend and nods, as he takes out his phone and dials the numer
Lobo: Thatta boy, and speaking of jobs. I better get back to doing mine. Good luck, Bendy.
Lobo walks off just in time as the line picks up and a female voice greets him.
???: Will you shut it, Moxxie?! It's not my fault you forgot we were out of sniper rounds! Geez...Hello, I.M.P.
Bendy: Uh, did I call at a bad time?
???: No, sorry about that, just my co-worker being a limp dick again. Need a job done?
Bendy: Wait a minute...Loona?
Loona: Yeah?
Bendy: It's me, Bendy! I'm Lobo's friend. We met when we came to Imp City to get Ren for the Hazbin Hotel.
Loona: Oh yeah, good to hear from you. So, you need someone dead?
Bendy: Actually I'm calling about the job opening, Lobo showed me your ad in the paper and--"
