When Henry received the short letter from his old friend Joey Drew he was surprised to say the least. Not only had they not spoken in thirty years, but they hadn't left on the best of terms either. After their explosive fight Henry had no intentions of ever returning to the studio, he didn't even know it was still standing to be honest. When Henry had left he tried to put everything behind him, out of mind. No more drawings, no more Joey, Sammy, Boris, Alice, and no more Bendy. That era of his life was meant to stay in the past, forgotten and in the shadows with the mistakes both men had made.

The people forgot Bendy and his friends, and so Henry had tried to as well. But there is only so much a person can forget about their own creation. For Henry could never really forget about his dear characters, the silly cartoons, his coworkers, especially not Bendy. His Darling Devil. The Dancing Demon. He was his pride and joy and nothing had made Henry happier than when he was creating sketches and skits for the adorable character.

So, no, Henry had never really forgotten, no matter how hard he had tried to move on from his time at Joey Drew Studios. It just always felt like a part of him had been left behind when he walked out of that studio for good. A part that was never able to be filled no matter how hard he tried. So when the letter came in the mail Henry was shocked, but a part of him, a small part he immediately tried to bury, was relieved with the opportunity to go back. To be invited back. So it was no question. He packed a bag and prepared to leave the very next day.

Reaching the studio it was easy to tell that the place had been abandoned, and for a long time, but Henry pushed on anyway. Entering The rundown entrance he spoke to himself, "Alright Joey, I'm here. Let's see if we can find what you wanted me to see."

This is pretty short, but it's only the prologue so the next chapter, and the ones that follow, should be much longer!
