Chapter Fifty-Nine [Angel with a Tommy Gun]

'I see you there...' Alice called as you looked around for an exit. 'No one likes a party pooper... you're not meant to attack the host!' She giggled hysterically and then calmed herself down with a sigh. 'Where are you?~' She cooed, and you shivered. You just want to go back to the safe zone... It wasn't really safe if she could break in, but at least you would be with Bendy again... with Betty again...

You looked around the room extension you had found and were surprised by what you saw on the bench. Waiting there for you was your Gent Pipe, already charged and up for you. 'What?' you mumbled under your breath as you glided your fingertips along its bumpy exterior. 'Well... lucky me...' You grab hold of it and flip it in your hands. If that angel decided to show her face, you'd be ready.

Two Lost Ones suddenly jumped out from around the corner and ran at you, making you scream as you flung your charged Gent Pipe at one of their bagged faces. It shot electricity at them and shocked one dead in their tracks, giving you ample time to drive the Gent Pipe directly into their abdomen and pull it out, before hitting the other charging one in their gut. They groaned in pain and stepped back, clutching their stomach. The other was on the floor in a ball, moaning at the agony infesting their abdomen. 

You quickly stepped on the balled-up Lost One's neck and it snapped under the pressure. The other recovered and ran at you again, only to be surprised by your Pipe hitting their chin on the way up on the precise swing you drew. They flew back and you could hear their spine crack as they hit the floor at an odd angle. You steadied your breathing for a moment before looking around the corner for any other attackers. Everyone else was dead it seemed.

You sighed heavily and looked back to your victims, splayed awkwardly on the floor in puddles of inky blood. Taking what little time you had, you went to free their souls from this immortal cycle of torment so you could continue on your journey for a way out. But for some reason, it didn't work. 'Huh?' you sat there for a moment, but then realised why. There was an electrical tower had bolts of sharp electricity zapping out above it and was weakening your abilities. You twisted your Gent Pipe in your hand and went over to it, jamming it into the slot and letting the electricity flow inside to disrupt its job. 

The energy and zaps of light froze, and you felt a wave of relief tumble over you as you regain feeling in your left hand. You reach back over to the corpses on the ground and lay your hand on each, allowing them free passage out of here. Sometimes I wish I was that lucky. You walk over to the charging station nearby to re-charge your pipe, ready for anything else that may happen. A note caught your eye, and it reminded you of the first note you had found on your journey on your Friday night. 

"01010100011010000110010100100000010101110110111101110010011100110110100001101001011100000111000001100101011100100010011101110011001000000100010001100101011011010110100101110011011001010010000001000100011100100110000101110111011100110010000001000011011011000110111101110011011001010111001000101110"

Just a random pile of numbers. Again. What day was it even? How many days had past, was it still Friday? You suddenly remembered something, something that wasn't on your mind at all on your endless journey. That Friday was Christmas Eve. Were you going to miss Christmas? The thought made you very upset... 'If I see Bendy again... maybe we could celebrate it... use up what little humanity I have left.' You sigh to yourself, upset at how your childhood would be stained from this.

There was a ladder that led to a higher floor which you took slowly, peeking your head over to see if anything was waiting for you above. No one. You breathe out with relief and hoist yourself up and other the ledge. 

There was nothing to accompany you on this level, but a balcony across the room was there with what looked to be Alice Angel cutouts lining the walls. You raise your hand and close your eyes, letting your body flow over to the other side of the balcony's fencing.

A gigantic poster was printed to the wall with an arrangement of two banners of Alice alongside it. "Sent from Above" was written on the poster, which reminded you of the same old-timey posters that were in the museum room... the same room that brought you here. You walk closer to it and reach out your hand, wanting to feel the fabric of the poster. But the bricks behind it flew out and nearly hit you on the face, making you drop to your knees and yelp at the shots being fired at you. The poster was broken into pieces and flew in the slight breeze of the room as chunks of the wall fell near you.

Alice was laughing hysterically and using an extremely loud gun to shoot you down. You ducked and held your head below your hands in defence, dropping your weapon. Here fire ceased and you peered over the large hole in the wall, Alice staring at you with a fiery intensity. 'No one humiliates an angel at the table!' She cocked her tommy gun and screamed at you. 'No one!' You dove to the right just as she started to shoot again. 'Hold still, honey!' she cooed menacingly.

'This is gonna hurt!' Her laughter erupted once more into the halls as she shot at you again, and you cringe at how loud it was near your ears. What do I do? You crawl over to the edge of the wall and notice that Alice was looking for you on a high ledge. You needed to stay out of her sight. You quietly raised your hand and hovered it over to a hallway and flowed over to there, making sure to be out of her line of sight.

'Are you hiding from me? How precious...!' She snarled from faraway, and you slouched slightly. Another ladder greeted you, but you walked past to see what was around the corner. Much to your pleasure, there was a barred door with a chain lock on it. Nothing really intrigued you inside though... you walk back over to the ladder and climb it, making sure to be as quiet as you could be to get up.

There was another barred door and a barricaded door on opposing walls, and you immediately gravitated toward the barricaded one. You stuck your pipe into its slot and pulled the lever, the barricades shrinking back to grant you access. Pushing the door open, you found a control panel with some blank monitor screens. 'Stop hiding! Start dying...~' Alice coaxed to you loudly, but you tuned her out.
