Max and the unseen horrors

Chapter 1 - Return to hell and back

------17 Years later------
Sunday, April 13th, 1963

It was a nice and sunny day outside for arch gate pictures. However, inside sitting in a desk was a 42 year old artist drawing random doodles, that was until there was a knock at the door. Max was 5'9ft tall, he wore blue jeans, a pair of brown shoes, a white under shirt and a brown golf shirt

"Come in!" Max said, a old man walked into the room holding a letter with a iconic bendy stamp on it, "It's for you Max" the old man started wheezing after he said that, "Oh Wilson, I didn't expect to see you today" Max said before taking the letter, "well I better get back to work" Wilson said walking off somewhere, though Max didn't care about that right now, what matter to him... was the yellowed letter.

Max opened and read it "Dear Max, It seems like a life time since you work on the cartoons here at the studio, 17 years Really slips by doesn't it, I know when we last talked we didn't leave on pleasant terms, but if your back in town, come visit the old workshop there's something i need to show you. You best pal, Joey drew" Max had merely almost forgotten working there, it had honestly took him by surprise, while Max Wanted nothing to do with Joey a part of him wanted to see what this 'something' was that Joey wanted to show him, as well as the fact he also wanted to see Sammy... that was if he was still there, though. However, before he could do that, though he would need to talk to his boss Nathan Arch,

Walking down the hall of Arch gate pictures, Max could hear a few thing here and there, Pencil being dragged against paper, feet's tapping the checkered floor, and a little bit of talking here and there, he stop outside of an office door where inside he could hear his boss, Nathan arch, as well as a young woman talking with each other, after a while she left his Boss's office smiling at the 5'9 artist as she walked by, Max didn't know her as well as his boss though, Max knock on the door to his boss's office, "Come in" another old man said though this time it's wasn't Wilson but rather his boss.

Max turned the door knob and opened the door stepping inside the room closing the door behind him, then he took a seat in front of his boss's desk, "Ah Max, it's great to see you again" Nathen said as saw who it was "Same to you Mr. Arch" Max said happy- really this time, he was happy to see his boss, and unlike Joey, who was a asshole to him.

"So, what bring you here, my friend?" Max hadn't gotten that far in his plan. However, he was going to tell his boss a lie... but was it really a lie when in fact it was truth, "I'm going to be away for the next few days, I have a family member moving in my Mom and Dad and I need to be there to help them," Max said explaining every detail, "How many days well you be gone?" "2, 3 at most," Max said to said to his boss, "Well then, you go off, I'll see you on... Friday, thank you for telling me this. " "ok, see you then."

"You're going back there?!" a old woman, Max's mother (Beth) said losing her mind, "I don't see it as a big deal, as long as you come back Safely that is" An old man, Max's father (Jeremy) said ok with it, "Just let it go Beth" another old woman beside said woman, Max aunt (Sidney) said seeing no problems with it as well, "I'm sorry, I have to go, it just came out of the blue" Max said feeling bad, "ok then, just be safe... and i love you son" Beth said to 5'9 artist "Good luck Max" Jeremy said to his son, "and Don't forget to have fun while you there" Max's aunt said to him as he was getting ready to leave

A battery pack, a few cords, Max's phone, a note book, a few pen and pencil, an art book, a few snack for here and there, and a change of clothes for when the pipe's started acting up, were all thing that got packed away into his back pack, Max grab his bag and headed out to his car
