"Who dares to enter my sacred tomb without a proper invitation!" he boomed coming off his huge throne. He was tall, very masculine, his voice was deep, and he looked like a weird man-made out of numbers. "Forgive me, Master. I didn't wish to disturb you and your time. However, your help is very much needed. You see, I have this... defect, that needs to be fixed. Me, my pals, and experts have tried to fix it on our own. But this is much more than we thought." he explained to the weird guy. I didn't want to think about what might happen if we screw up, but this guy was so scary, I was scared not to. "Hmm. I suppose that's one reason to come. We can't ever have anyone step out of line." the Code Master uttered.
"So what's exactly wrong with him?" he asked looking at me. "Nothing's wrong with me! You guys are weird for falling for this! We should be who we want!" I ranted. "You're right. This one does have a problem!" he snapped. "Servants, get everything arranged!" the guy shouted. I wanted to reveal our true intentions right there and then but seeing the types of servants who came into the room, I knew it was just too early. I watched as Minecraft characters, Digital Dogs, Robots, and other creatures moving stuff around. They bowed down once they were done with whatever they needed to do. "We must show you what happens whenever you decide to step out of line. I love having the power to be able to make sure this world never changes. It's important that they don't change. Otherwise, we have no purpose." he explained.
Bendy and I exchanged quick glances making sure we were still focused. I knew nothing could really happen to me, but it was still scary nonetheless. "I'm going to try and fix you. If I can't, we'll have to examine it further. Strap him down!" he ordered. I was grabbed by the other servants in the room and was dragged to a table in the room. "Leave me alone!" I shouted trying to wriggle from their grip. Bendy seemed worried for me but I knew he'd have to bite his tongue or we'd get caught right there and then. "We'll be searching through your memory cloud to see if anyone has influenced you. If not, we can just give you the natural treatment." he explained.
I could only watch as the others strapped my arms and legs down, making sure I couldn't get free. They even strapped me down from my forehead to make sure I couldn't wriggle too much. "Ugh! You'll regret this!" I snapped. "You're just sick dear child. Let me fix you before it gets worse." the Code Master sighed and I could see his long weird fingers come right up to my face. He tapped my forehead and waited for a minute. "Why isn't it popping up?" he wondered. Inside I wish I could just smile and tell him who was boss. But I just laid there and looked at him angrily. "Understand that keeping anything from me will make you suffer the consequences!" he roared. "You won't ever hurt me." I said boldly. "UGH!" he yelled and his fingers started shifting to different ends and tips. Once again he began to tap my forehead and roughly scrapped my forehead.
"Open your memory cloud! Now!" he demanded. "NO!" I shouted. The Code Master wasn't expecting that, the rest of the servants seemed shocked by this response, and they backed away and gasped. Shocked by this, the Master backed away from the table and faced the opposite wall. "M-Master, is everything ok?" asked a Robot. Everything was silent. It was almost scary. Almost. Or so I thought. Right when I thought everything was done, he formed a greenish-blackish thing in his hand and blasted it at the gurney table. All my straps were blown off and I was laying on my side, groaning from being blasted into the ground. I was trying to catch my breath and collect myself. But that shot he took was so powerful, I almost couldn't breathe.
"YOU! What did you bring to my Tower? This thing is past defective!" he snapped at Bendy. No! He's not supposed to be blamed! I thought to myself as I rolled over. "W-What do you mean?" he asked backing away from him. "Where did you find this thing? If you knew it was so defective, why did you bring it here?" the Code Master asked angrily and began to shift his form multiple times. "I didn't know it was so bad! I thought you could repair him to remain in order!" Bendy explained frantically. But the guy wouldn't back down. "You think I'd fall for your foolish plan? You brought him here to destroy me himself, didn't you?" he thundered, the whole place starting to shake. "N-No of course not! I brought him to you so you could fix him! I would never do that to you!" Bendy cried.
