The Inky World Of The Ink Machine

Chapter 19 - Infos that I need

I didn't knew it would be so easy to get him/her on my side. (Y/N) seemed to be on a good start with me. I won't kill (Y/N). He/She is exactly the person I need. No one will suspect him/her. But there was only one problem. Dimitri is smart. He might guess that I'm behind it. But I have a plan b, as well as c. I started with my original plan a.

"Ok. Now that we have a deal, I have to warn you. My such called friend isn't as dumb as he might be. I would think of a fake name if I were you. No matter from what."

(Y/N) thought for a moment and had an idea. The name he/she told me was actually...odd. Just like this place.

"Draco. I don't know why, but it sounds pretty cool. Besides, some of my old pals used to call me that 'cause I liked dragons earlier. I think I still do."

"Then, should I spoiler you?", I asked (Y/N).

(Y/N) nodded with excitement. So I wasn't hiding it and told it right away.

"I saw somewhere a special ink creature. You might guess what kind of a creature it was."

(Y/N) started to jump up and down. He/She really liked dragons, huh?

"Ok, ok. (laughs) Calm down, (Y/N)."

"It's a dragon?!", asked me (Y/N).

"It is. Before I'll do my revenge, we'll go to that dragon...or you will meet the dragon on your journey. How does that sound?"

"It sounds great!", shouted (Y/N).

"Fantastic. Ok, let's get back to the info I want you to get out of him."

(Y/N) stared at me, looking very concentrated on what I'll say in some seconds.

"So, first of all, try to get to know him. Like you would want to befriend him. I want to know if he changed. You know...I can always change my mind of getting revenge on him. Maybe he had some kind of period."

After I said that, (Y/N) tried to hold his/her laughter. As I saw that, I wanted to laugh too. Man, it was contagious and catching. We couldn't hold it longer and we broke into laughter. It went so much time from my last laughter. It felt like ages. Then again, why should I laugh?

Bendy was trying to keep me sane. Sometimes it worked sometimes it failed. When it worked, we would spend so much time together. Sometimes with Henry as well. But as it failed, I hid in my dark corner, scratching the walls and writing messages on them, like "HE BETRAYED ME", "I'LL GET MY REVENGE" or...

"I'D RATHER GO INSANE, THAN TO TRUST HIM AGAIN!".

The last message I wrote only in places, where I  was left to calm down, which is my dark corner and the Ink Machine rooms, that can be located in Wilson's retrieve and at the very entrance of the studio when you go to the right.

I was left also in Bendy's lair, but I never scratched those walls 'cause the lair was owned by my brother. So I left it. I looked back at (Y/N), who was deep in his/her thoughts. He/She then noticed me looking at him/her.

"So? Can we move on?", I asked (Y/N).

"Of course. I'm sorry."

"No, don't be sorry. It's alright."

(Y/N) smiled at me and...it was a true smile. Besides Bendy and Henry, everyone, who showed their smile to me, was fake. They just don't want me here. Maybe 'cause of my appearance. But I try to keep myself sane. I don't mean any harm. I want to be accepted here. Just like Bendy and Henry did to me. They are for me like a family.

To be honest, I miss my human one. I want to see them again. They are probably very worried about me, just like the parents from the others, who I locked here. I can exit the studio, but the problem is that the police would attack me because of my look. I don't know how to hide it, so visiting my family is out of limits.

Maybe one day. But now I have those two and I know I can trust them. I love them with pure heart. Just like I do to my human family. I then continued with what I wanted to end. Which infos do I need.

"Ok. So, after you gain his trust, try to find out with who he is working and with who he is befriended. Earlier it were Luke, Bartholomew, Benton and Chris. There are more, but I counted those, who entered the studio."

"Alright. Do you want to add something?", asked me (Y/N).

I wasn't sure if I can trust him/her, but I think (Y/N) trusts me, so why not trust him/her.

"Yes, there's one more thing, I want you to find out. (inhales and exhales) Typhon is...a ghost I suppose. He's using a child's soul, Uma, to manipulate with other human beings. Uma knew him as her uncle. Now she can't get free from him. She knows many things about Typhon. I want to split this special event for two. One part will I do, the second you. Only if you want to. I can do it alone."

"I would like to help. I think this Typhon guy is not only a threat to you, but for everybody. It would be a pleasure to help you with that."

I was so happy that (Y/N) wanted to do that with me.

"Well, here's the plan. You have to find out if he knows something about Typhon. Wait, he knows something. Your job is to find out what. And if you see Uma, try to avoid her. She isn't herself. It will be my job to get some information out of her. I'll also try to free her from Typhon's spell."

"Sounds fair enough.", said (Y/N).

I was so glad and grateful to have him/her.

"So, what are we waiting for? Let's go. Oh...and don't you worry about your death. You'll have to fight lots of enemies, but if you will get too bad injured or you'll almost die, I'll sprint, teleport, no matter what, I'll come to you. I'll save you if you needed."

"Thank you, my guardian demon.", joked (Y/N).

I somehow liked it to be called guardian demon. It remembered me of taking care of my little sister. Ohh...how much do I miss her. (Y/N) seemed to notice me being down.   He/She hugged me tight to make me feel better. It actually helped. I hugged back.

"Thank you, (Y/N).", I whispered.

"No problem. If something, I'll try to help you. Like your guardian angel."

I smiled. It was so nice from him/her. It reminded me on my besties. I miss them as well. I hugged tighter and started to cry. It was too emotional for me. (Y/N), who heard my wines, didn't let go of the hug and tried to calm me down. Footsteps could be heard and I knew, who it was.

"She remembered her friends and family, didn't she?" asked b
Bendy (Y/N).

He/She noddes as a response. Bendy showed him/her to give me to him. I slowly let go (Y/N) and landed in the arms of my brother. I thanked (Y/N) again. I wipped my tears away and told him/her:

"You should make your way. He might be in the sewers, city or the old Gent building. Look for him and start your mission."

Before we left, I went to (Y/N) and gave him/her my old bracelet, which Bendy gave me almost a year ago. I added some powers to it. The bracelet had the power of making portals, but now it included also a power of spawning and disspawning Searchers.

I explained him/her how the bracelet works and left the room with Bendy, saying goodbye to (Y/N).
