Bendy and Friends

Chapter 25: Dead Turkeys and Arsonists

The next morning, everyone gathered back at the cartoons' house. They split off into groups, each group getting a singular chocolate bar to split between the members throughout the day.

Dylan, Boris and Jim stood in one group, Dylan pocketing the chocolate bar. Bendy, Alice and Sammy were the other group. Instead of saving the bar for later, Sammy shoved the whole thing down his throat—wrapper and all—without hesitation, choking slightly.

"Okay, let's depart!" Alice screamed, throwing on her shades to finish her disguise. As well as the funky sunglasses, she also wore a blue hoodie and a pair of black leggings with Nike Air Force 1's.

Bendy wore an old torn-up t-shirt, adorned with nasty stains and what looked like bullet holes riddled throughout the green patchwork material.

Sammy was clad in a funky orange leotard, with high-knee boots and fishnet leggings. On top of it all, he wore a leopard-print blazer with green accents and undertones. He no longer wore the makeup and spray-on hair, since he couldn't care less how Joey saw him.

Sammy didn't understand why they had to wear disguises, since they were just going to Joey's house. It would have been better if they were just dressed normally, so Sammy wouldn't have to look like some drag queen gone mad, but Alice threatened him with a spatula so he really had no choice.

Dylan, Boris and Jim simply walked out the front door, the faint scent of bacon soup, sewers and dollar-store cologne the only remnants of their presence.

Sammy, Alice and Bendy exchanged glances between each other for a moment before heading to the door. "Are you guys thinking what I'm thinking?" Bendy said, a devious smile on his face. Alice's body contorted along with her face as she bent into an extremely awkward position, her face smooshed against the floor while her butt caressed the ceiling. Her legs were each bent in opposite directions twitching spastically as she made a confused face and said, "Probably not."

Sammy swung open the front door, startling the 13 cats that had suddenly began licking themselves directly outside the door. He carefully stepped around them, avoiding the many tails and paws with great agility. From the door, since she'd recovered from her weird pose, Alice clapped giddily. "Do that again!" She exclaimed, laughing until Bendy shoved past her and stormed through the cats. "Let's just get this over with. This shirt smells like ass." He grumbled as he began to lead the way, even though he had absolutely no idea where he was going.

The three of them ran down the street, feeling exhilarated as ever as they dodged dozens of stray golden retrievers and pregnant men. They passed someone they recognized on occasion—Gabriel Agreste, Shoto Todoriki, Shadow the Hedgehog— but for the most part they all saw just regular law-abiding citizens nobody in the trio knew.

By the time they reached Joey's house, Sammy noticed that seven ice cream trucks were parked roughly outside Joey's driveway. They could hear the radio playing inside one of them as they walked past, heading toward the front door. Several large turkeys spotted them approaching the door, and started squawking erratically until they all made it within arm's length of the door.

Before Sammy even got the chance to knock, the door swung open and the three of them were sucked inside by a surprisingly strong human-sized vacuum cleaner. Bendy screamed as they were all pulled out of the way before they got sucked into the vacuum.

"Joey, are those more renovators?" The three heard Audrey caw from upstairs like a crow. Somewhere on the floor they currently stood on, Joey shouted, "Probably!"

Sammy led the way into the kitchen, avoiding the many holes in the floor as well as the many dead turkeys littering the place. "What the hell happened here?" Alice asked in a strangely masculine voice.
