Bendy's POV:

The five of us stared at him with anger. I had it with this Percy guy. It's nice to see that I wasn't the only one fed up.

Sadly, most of the people in the cafeteria sided with him. Felicity got up from her seat and stood next to him, scowling at us. That's when I noticed the rest of the patients. They were all staring at us.

Were they all that angry?

"I think these five need to be taught a lesson, right guys?" Percy shouted for all to hear. The other patients either nodded or yelled in agreement. Either way, it was clear they sided with Percy.

I wondered where the nurses were as I glanced around. There wasn't a single one in here. Where did they all go?

Percy then grabbed my plate off the table, dumping the food onto the ground. I could hear small laughter from the other patients.

I wasn't bothered, but it was clear someone else was.

"Hey! Dick head! Go take a shower!" I heard Charley shout.

Before Percy could respond, he was splashed in the face with milk. I turned to face Charley. He had picked up his glass of milk and spilled it all over Percy.

It was easy to see the anger on Percy's face. Meanwhile, Charley was laughing hysterically. Nobody else was though.

"That's it! You're dead!" Percy shouted with anger. He then threw the glass plate onto the floor, shattering it.

I expected him to just leave it, but he didn't.

He picked up one of the sharp shards and held it tightly, making sure not to cut himself. He aimed the pointed edge towards Charley, slowly beginning to approach him.

Felicity did the same thing, grabbing a plate shard and following Percy as he got closer to Charley, who was obviously nervous.

Barley tried to intervene, latching onto Percy's arm to pull him back. All it did was make him angrier. Percy whirled around and suddenly grabbed onto Barley's neck. He then pushed him down and pinned him on the floor, holding the shard close to his eye.

"If you try any of that shit again, I will carve out your other eye." Percy threatened as his grip got tighter. Barley was trembling, obviously terrified.

Charley was about to react, but I did before him. I charged at Percy, shoving him with my elbow and causing him to release Barley. Barley stumbled to his feet and quickly backed away. I could hear a mix of gasps come from the crowd.

Percy wobbled to his feet, grumbling in frustration.

"THAT'S IT! YOU'RE DEAD!". He then ran at me.

I started to back up. That's when I heard someone shout my name.

"BENDY! BEHIND YOU!" Alice screamed at me.

I turned around, ducking down immediately. Felicity has almost sliced me from behind.

I ducked again as she slashed, getting dangerously close to my face. I dashed away from them. They began to chase me. The crowd cheered and chanted. They wanted me dead.

Panicked screams from the other four could be heard. A few other patients had charged at them, though they weren't armed with any weapons.

One patient had punched Boris so hard that he fell unconscious. Alice was put into a headlock and restrained. Barley was grabbed by the back of his neck and slammed into the ground. The only one who stood was Charley, who was running as fast as he could.

That's when I noticed the tears in his eyes.

Charley's POV:

I dashed around the cafeteria, hearing the maniacal laughs of the other patients. I did everything possible to escape. Run into the crowd to lose my pursuer, ducking under tables and behind furniture. Nothing was working. He was determined.

Although he wasn't armed, I was still terrified. He was twice my size!

Though the most horrifying thing was the fact I had begun to cry. It was my worst nightmare. Crying in front of everyone. The stress of knowing this only made me sob harder.

Not only was it embarrassing, but it was also dangerous. The only reason the other patients avoided me was because they feared me. Now that they know how easily I'm scared, they'll never leave me alone.

The man chasing me almost grabbed me, but I made a sharp turn and dodged him. I spotted Bendy doing the same thing as me, running for his life. The other three were already caught. I wanted to help but I couldn't. It would only get me captured, too. Besides, Barley would want me to be safe.

I then somehow cornered myself like an idiot. Though I felt a little better after realizing Bendy did the same thing.

We both stared up at Percy, Felicity, and the strange man. We were both terrified. I then got an idea.

If they took Bendy, would I be able to get away? I decided to test it.

I latched onto Bendy's shoulder, shoving him into the three. They seemed surprised but were quick to restrain him.

Bendy stared back at me, the look of betrayal on his face. I did feel bad. That feeling quickly faded though. If it was me or him, I was gonna choose me.

I took this opportunity to flee, dashing past them and into the playroom. I looked for somewhere to hide. That's when I decided to run to the bathroom and lock myself inside.

I leaned against the door, catching my breath and working on calming down.

Once I calmed down I began to think.

Was that a good idea?

Bendy's POV:

I struggled to break free from their grasps. I couldn't move much though, as Percy was holding the plate shard up to my chest. He threatened to stab me if I tried anything.

Though the biggest shock for me was the betrayal. Charley purposely shoved me into danger so he could get away. I had absolutely no sympathy for him either. If I was in his position, I would have done the opposite!

Felicity held my hands behind my back as I was led to the other three. I was then shoved to the ground once again.

I had no idea what his intentions were, but I knew they weren't good.

I knew what my intentions were though. I can't believe I called Charley a friend. I can't believe I supported him and defended him. Was this all part of some sick plan?

Either way, I wasn't going to support him anymore.

He's on his own.
