Chapter 3: What have I become?

(Warning: slight gore)
     Alan and the others walked towards the exit of the studio. It had been a long day.  He still couldn't get the image of Joey's menacing grin out of his head. *maybe that's just how he smiles...*He thought. Alan tried to shrug it off.
      Soon, the hallway to the exit was before them. "Alright guys, stay safe! Have a good day!" Eddie said with his trademark optimistic grin. He reached for the doorknob.
     Not 3 seconds later, he doubled over, clutching his stomach.
     "Eddie?! Are you okay?!" Susie panicked. Alan stood back, mortified. "So Drew was trying to poison us..." Alan leaned against the wall. Susie shook Eddie to see if he had lost consciousness. Soon, she too, was doubled over. Alan then saw one of the most twisted scenes of his life. From Susie grew two horns from her head, sprouting from her scalp. Alan's ears rang with the sound of tearing flesh. Wings sprouted on her back and she screamed in pain. A halo formed above her head, then, she blacked out. Alan looked to Eddie only to find that he too, had undergone a transformation. He had the ears and tail of a wolf. Alan was shocked. He'd never seen such a horrific sight in his life.
   

    Alan soon found himself with a headache. He figured that it was triggered from maybe dehydration, exhaustion, or from the mental trauma he just suffered. Boy, was he wrong. Two twisting horns ripped through the flesh of his scalp, and his eyes turned a deep shade of red. Blood red. He watched as almost all color drained from his skin, seemingly being sucked out of him by some kind of vampire. And then, . . . a tail? He stepped back in horror of his own shadow. * What have we become?* Then, he too, blacked out.

(Alan's point of View)
   It was dark. I heard whispering voices all around me. Had I passed out? I slowly opened my eyes. I was greeted by a man (looked in his thirties) looking at me with concern. "H-Henry?" I said. He nodded. "Yeah, Alan, it's me. How are you feeling?" I looked at him with immense confusion. "Alan? Whaddareya talkin' about? M'name's Bendy!" I said. He chuckled. "Now's not the time to be in character , Alan, but good attempt to lighten the mood." This confused me even more. For Hell's sakes! I'm the dancing demon! Can't he see that? He's my creator, ain't he? "Alan?" He asked. I was starting to get frustrated. "Who in blazes is Alan?! I'm bein' serious here!" Henry looked panicked. He thought for a moment, then looked back at me. "Stay here and rest." he then got up and left.
        Well, that was confusing.
Joey soon entered the infirmary room. "Heya, Bendy! Doin' alright?" He asked. I was still kinda confused about Henry, but I decided to get what info I could. "I'm doin' mighty fine, Mister Drew, thanks for askin'! Hey, Henry's actin' kinda weird. Called me Alan! Do you know who that is?" He chuckled. "No idea, Bendy. Any who. If you're wondering why y'all woke up in the infirmary, uh..., the ....ink machine caused the building to shake! And uh...you guys hit your heads and got knocked out. Glad y'all're doin' fine. I'll  check in later." He swiftly stood and walked out. I sat up and looked around. Nothing out of the ordinary. There was a mirror on the other side of the room, so I got up to take a look. Got my horns, my eyes still are the same.... I turned around to make sure I still had my tail. Yep, still there.  I don't look any different. Why would Henry call me Alan?
     Speak of the devil.
He ran up to me and shook my shoulders agressively. "Alan! Don't you remember?! Do you remember Anything?!?!" He shouted. I wiggled out of his grasp. "Henry, quit your nonsense! Do I look like an 'Alan' to you?! Can't you recognise me? I'm Bendy!" He simply walked out after that.
      What is wrong with him?
