We open up in what seems to be a dark room, with multiple computer screens illuminating the area, much like at the beginning of 'Truth Seekers'. In front of the monitors, Agent Two sat back in a swivel chair, sucking on a red popsicle.

Two: Alright, info I got so far... Exhibit A: the demons are able to go to and from Earth anytime they wish, which would explain how "footage" can show them disappearing. Exhibit 2: They're killing specific targets, which I've known all this time. And Exhibit Tres: I theorize the demons have the ability to assume a human disguise, as seen on security footage back at HQ... I'm not sure what this means, but I'm gonna find out.

Suddenly, a sort of knocking is heard on the outside as Two gets up and opens a window. It's revealed her current base is inside an ice cream truck, ice cream music playing in the background and a kid standing in front of it, holding a dollar.

Kid: One Cherry Popsicle, please.

Two: Sorry, kiddo. *waves popsicle* This was the last one.

She takes a bite of the popsicle and grabs the window to close it, but it gets stuck. Two holds the Popsicle in her mouth, then uses both hands to tighten the window, falling to the floor as she closes it.

Kid: Bitch!

Two: *gets up* Who's idea was it to get an ice cream truck as a base?... Oh yeah... *becomes saddened* It was One's idea....

The agent sighed in sadness to herself as she finishes the Popsicle and throws the stick in the trash. She reviewed some of the footage from the fight between D.H.O.R.K.S and I.M.P.

Two: Their skills don't seem to be derived from animal instinct or anything. It's as if they're trained like this.

Though, the agent stopped as she glared at Bendy in the footage.

Two: You...... I swear to God, after what you did to my partner, I will not rest until youa dn your little friends are dissected alive..... *stomach growls, groans* Okay, I need some real food.

Two brought out her phone to try and order something, when one of the screens blared and flashed red, signaling a trace of demonic energy. Looking at the live CCTV footage, she saw Bendy in his human disguise sneaking out of an alley.

Two: *buying disguise* Hmm, just a guy.... Wait a minute. Why does he look so familiar?

Taking a capture of Bendy's disguise, Two ran a scan on the disguise's face for any sort of link. Suddenly, the results popped up on a separate screen, making Two smirk in delight.

Two: Oh~. This.... This is just the lead I've been looking for! *picks up phone* But first, I better let my wife know I might be late coming home.

-----------------------------------------------

As for why Bendy came out of the alley, he and Sallie May were partnered for a job at a local fast food restaurant, which the client wanted killed due to getting cold fries..... Seems reasonable.

Bendy: Okay, here's what I'm thinking. I go in through the front with my human disguise and you go up through the vent opening on the roof in order to get the ones in the kitchen. Got it?

Sallie May: Sounds like a plan.

With a nod, Bendy activated his human disguise as he walked out of the alley, unaware of the agent watching him. As the imp started to climb up the fire escape to get to the rooftops, she noticed the ice cream truck nearby.

Sallie May: Huh.... What's an ice cream truck doing a block away from a fast food joint? Then again, those places always have ice cream machines that only work on a blue moon.
