It was 4 AM. Bendy couldn't sleep. Bendy was... depressed. He couldn't get the thought of how he threatened Silvester out of his mind. And the icing on the cake? Echo's death. Killed because of him. He blocked the attacks of multiple vampire hunters and died as Bendy ran for his life. Then he realized: the reminder came from his actions at that point. Mickey represented his younger self and he... he represented Echo. He managed to sleep a bit more. But once he woke up again, he refused to talk to anyone for the day. The morning made Alice worry, then Boris, and then, soon after...
"Umm... Bendy? Are you okay? You haven't spoken to us in the entire day." Mickey asked, clearly worried, unaware of what was happening in his head. "You remind me of someone I miss a lot, that's all." Alice thought for a moment and then said, "Is it Echo?"
"How did you know?"
"Did you think I'd forget how you were feeling when we met and why?"
"Yeah, kind of."
Mickey looked at both of them confused, "Who's Echo?" Alice answered, "The only vampire that actually cared about Bendy. He learned everything from him, not his parents. Not to mention the guy was the oldest and had his own way of doing things. Bendy witnessed his death during Echo's attempt to protect him." Mickey looked at Bendy with sorry eyes, "I'm sorry for your loss." Bendy continued, "It happened years ago." He walked away after that. "Wait, he never got over that?" Mickey asked. "He never did." Alice told him, a hint of sadness in her voice. "Bendy believed he died but he ran away for the scene so it wasn't confirmed."
"So there's a chance he's alive!"
"Yeah, but seriously weak."
"Umm, how does he look like?"
"Dark blue, rose red eyes... Sorry didn't get much of a description."
"Eh, that's enough description for me."

-Time skip-
It was around 10 pm. Mickey was ready to escape the house and search for this "Echo" fella. He grabbed a jacket and marched out. It was the moment he got out that he noticed how eerie it was at night. The feeling of being watched returned. 'It better not be that Silvester guy from last night.' He thought. However, some eyes were watching him in the shadows.
