Drowning

Anger

Sammy P.O.V

Sammy made his way back to where his Lord was waiting. His mind was spinning. He'd never guessed that the other Sammi could remember the past as well! Though come to think of it, it did explain a lot about the woman. Like how she'd seemed unafraid, almost bored, while Sammy spoke to her, preparing for the sacrifice. It was kinda funny.

Sammi was also the being, besides Sammy himself, who was colored. Sammy hadn't noticed until now, because Sammi had almost always been largely covered in ink, similar to Sammy himself. But Sammy had never seen her without the ink. Seeing her, hanging in the chain, made Sammy realize she was human.

Completely human. Before, Sammy had assumed Sammi was a creature similar to him. But nope. Sammi was about average height, shorter than Sammy by a few inches. Her hair, which Sammy had assumed was jet black because of the ink but was originally blond, with the tips dyed silver.

Her eyes were a storm blue with a little bit of gray and green. They were quite shocking. She had a small scar on her cheek, which Sammy had never noticed before either. Her thumb and pointer finger had ink stains in between them, giving away that she was an artist. Maybe an animator? But Sammy had never seen Sammi before the loop, so it's not possible that she worked for Joey, right?

Sammy made his way toward his Lord, bowing his head in respect. Bendy growled. "Well?" He asked, his voice deep. "Her name is Sammi Grace, my Lord." He spoke respectfully to his Lord. Bendy sat up, his posture eager. "Did she give anything away?" Lord asked. "Why is she here?"

Sammy paused. "Sammi is human, my Lord. And she remembers every loop. She didn't say why she is here, but I can deduce that is an artist, because of the ink stains around her fingers" The Lord paused, looking intrigued. "An animator?" He mused. "I guess that makes sense..."

Bendy P.O.V

Bendy waved his hand to send Sammy away. After the Prophet was gone, Bendy sat back on his throne. An animator, Hmm? Sammi must have been one of Joey's animators, who would spend hours working, drawing Bendy herself. But Bendy thought he knew all the animators who had worked under Joey. Not.

Bendy thrummed his fingers against his throne, feeling irked. Sammi was also still human, which was a complication Bendy hadn't seen comin'. He could have drowned Sammi, and he hadn't even realized it! Bendy shook his head. Why did Joey send Sammi here in the first place?

Bendy growled, then barked at one of the Searchers. "Bring me Sammi!" The Searchers disappeared, and reappeared with an unconscious woman hanging between them, wrapped in chains. Bendy stood, growling at them. "What happened?" He demanded. One of them bowed their head.

"Apologies. She tried to fight us, we had to knock her out." Bendy sat back down, growling. "Leave us." The Searchers disappeared into the floor, leaving Sammi's unconscious body along with Bendy.

Bendy stalked up towards Sammi, peering at her blurry form. Bendy moved closer until he was inches from Sammi and could see her. The chains dug into her skin, black on yellow. Bendy moved his face close to Sammi's, smelling her. She smelled good, like fresh paper, musty paper, and chocolate cake.

He nuzzled Sammi's face gently, making the human squirm. Her eyes blinked open, confusion showing in them. Her eyes were blue with gray mixed with green. Bendy found them cool-looking. He'd never seen that shade of gray and green in a human's eyes. Then she caught sight of Bendy, so close to her, and terror sparked in them.

She squirmed, trying to get out of the chains, but they were too tight. Bendy turned his head sideways. Bendy picked her up and cradled her in Bendy's arms. Sammi let out a startled cry, whimpering. "Shh." Bendy purred, but Sammi cried out unable to understand him. Bendy stroked Sammi until she stopped struggling, and lay there limp.

Bendy cradled Sammi, holding the paralyzed, chained woman close to his chest. He couldn't understand why Joey would send her here, knowing how horrible the studio became. Maybe Joey didn't, but that was the only thing that made sense. Bendy stroked Sammi's hair, lost in thought.

Sammi was the nicest person Bendy had ever seen! He'd been so mad before, he hadn't even noticed till now when he looked back on it. Sammi was more determined than most as well. She was the only one to have made it all down the Bendy's lair. And now...Why didn't she run when Bendy reached out to grab her?

Bendy could remember each loop since he was the one who kept it going. Only a few remember each loop, until now he'd thought it was The Prophet and himself were the only ones. But now he learned that Sammi had the same ability. Bendy found that fascinating.

Unfortunately, that means that Sammi remembers everything Bendy had done to her. Bendy felt guilt as he gazed at Sammi's terrified expression. No wonder she was so scared. Bendy gently set the animator down on his throne, then dissolved the chains, replacing them with ink. He thought that might make Sammi more comfortable.

The woman curled up in a ball, hiding her face. Bendy sat beside her, gently putting his arms around her. Bendy felt the woman stiffen. Bendy gently rubbed her back, trying to comfort her.

There must have been some kind of mistake. Sammi wasn't a bad person. That was obvious. She was the first human Bendy had ever seen that seemed nice. Decent. She didn't deserve to be here. Bendy growled softly. Sammi stiffened.

Bendy would have to visit Mr. Drew!
