❝Dreams come true.❞

MICHAEL WAS STILL UNSURE of what to do in this situation. He still didn't know what to do, it was either you return to normal or everything starts from the beginning like how Henry said. William on the other hand was about to jump on his son and knock him out before he could do anything reckless with that reel.

Mike held the reel tightly in his hands, "I don't know what to do! I'm confused, I don't know if this reel will help Y/N or just make them disappear!" He exclaimed with panic. William growled in frustration, "Just do as I said, you idiot! Don't risk Y/N's existence!" He stated, clenching his fists tightly. Michael still didn't seem to be convinced at all, he was still hesitant whether he should use the reel or not. That was Henry's turn to speak up and stop Michael from restarting the cycle again.

"Listen Michael, I know this is a hard decision, but you have to trust me. I have done this several times and I'm still stuck here doing the same thing over and over."

Upon hearing what Henry had proclaimed, Michael appeared to be slightly convinced. It was true what Henry said, he could have left if the reel did actually help. However, what if he was doing it wrong? There might be someway to use it correctly, right? Michael was about to speak when suddenly you landed in front of them out of nowhere, taking the three men off guard. As they faced you, you let out a loud roar followed by threatening growls. Both Michael and William looked at you with shock while Henry looked at you with a look of determination. William was staring at you with utter shock, "Y/N, what happened to you?" He thought as he kept staring at you. Henry quickly moved to try and stop you from doing anything dangerous.

"Y/N, you need to get back to your senses! Nothing bad will happen, trust me." He said with a calm tone, trying to assure you. However, your gaze was kept on Michael who was still holding the reel. Henry blocked the view of your brother and stood right in front of you, "Listen Y/N, this isn't you. You're not Bendy, you're a human and you have a family." His words seemed to have effect on you because your growls had calmed down a bit. This was a good cue to put his inky hand on your head, "See, your father and brother are here to get you back home. There's no need to hurt anyone here." His hand started to glow gold, taking the patterns of swirl on the back of his hand.

"You need to return, I promise it will be fine."

Once he said that, he closed his eyes. His view shifted and he found himself in a dark place. In front of him, he saw a young teenager laying down and he recognized who was this kid. Henry rushed over to you and picked you up, "Y/N, wake up. You have to wake up." He called while gently tapping your face. He waited for a few seconds before your eyes slowly opened, but before none of you could react, golden light surrounded you both. Henry was brought back to reality and snapped his eyes open, he saw your beast form turn bright gold before the ink exploded everywhere. A wave of golden light surrounded the place and went even outside the machine throughout the studio.

Henry, Michael, and William covered themselves with their arms to prevent the ink from staining them more. Once everything ended, they looked up to see what had happened. To their surprise, they saw you laying there unconscious, "Y/N!" William exclaimed and ran to you, picking you up in his arms. He wiped the ink off your face, "My child, you're finally back." He said and hugged you tightly with any care of the ink staining his clothes more. Michael snapped out of his shock and ran to his father's side to check on you.

Henry smiled and let out a sigh of relief. He looked down at his hands to see that the ink was gone, "It seems that we managed to break the seal and free Y/N." He thought as he kept his gaze on William and Michael. Now they have to wait for you to wake up and see if you were back to normal or not, but something deep down told him that you were going to fine and back to what you used to be. However, one question rang in Henry's head.

Who told Michael to use the reel?
