I watch Bendy as it lifts it's body back up, smiling wide, eyes filled with playful mischief. It chuckled, looking at my pale face, my eyes bulging out and jaw resting on the floor.

"Geez, aren't you a talker" he huffed out, tapping his foot.

"But" he added, lowering to your level again.

"I'm sure I can still have fun with you".

"Get up" he ordered, moving out of the way to give me some room.

I slowly lift your body off of the cold, hard, wooden floor. I stand up, not making eye contact and body shaking, terrified of this abomination standing in front of me.

"Good. Now I have the perfect game in mind, it's called: Steal a book from Mr. Drew"

I say nothing, feeling nothing, but confusion and fear.

"Ugh, say something already" he roared.

I jump, terrified of the demon in front of me. "Oh, uh sorry. So...so what book am I...I suppose to...to steal?" I stuttered out.

I slowly lift my head to look at him, I managed to, only for a second before I got too scared and averted my gaze, looking down at the ground again. He noticed and chuckled, amused with how terrified I am of him.

"The Book of Life, that's the book I need. Get it. I'll check up on you everyday to see if you completed the errand" He explained.

"Oh and don't try to tell ANYONE about me. If you try to snitch I'll make sure you NEVER snitch again" he threatened, laughing darkly.

He gives me a wink before jumping into the ink puddle in the corner and disappearing

I stood there for who knows how long, hoping this is all a dream and I'll wake up in my cozy, warm bed and laugh about all of this in the morning. I pinch myself. Not a dream, it's all real.

Tears escape my eye's, no sound, no sobs, just silent.

After I run dry of tears I wipe my wet face and shuffled towards my desk and sit on the chair, resting my head on my desk.

"How am I suppose to steal a book from Mr. Drew?!"...."What if the thing kills me after I give him the book, there's nothing stopping it from betraying me. I don't trust it for a second" "Is it watching every move I make?. What if I try to trick it and it sees? I have to do this, I have no choice!!" I yell in my head, tears dropping down, feeling as there's no escape.

"I have to do this. Once I have the book I'll think of something" I decide.

I calm myself a bit and force my hand to continue working, hating it, but knowing I can't slack off without Mr. Drew barging in and yelling at me, demanding I get back to work.

Break finally came, allowing me an hour to think of a plan to steal that book of life.

"I need someone to distract him, taking him out of the office. Maybe Mark can. Ah, but how am I suppose to ask him to distract him and take the boss out of the office. It has suspicious activity written all over it" I groan and throw my hands up in frustration.

"Curse that demon. I could be relaxing, enjoying my break and continuing on with my safe and happy life. He ruined it all" I hissed out.

"You should never talk behind someone's back, toots"

I jump and turn my head, facing the demon that stood right behind me.

"Oh, I'm...I'm so sorry. I didn't realize you were here. It won't happen again" I babbled, fearing he might hurt me in anger.
