Chapter 4

*Nobody's POV

         After an agonizing 15 minutes of coughing ink and irregular breathing. Bendy was leaning against the wall as he passed out. He had missed four class periods. The bell rang for lunch.  Boris began to search for his older brother. Since they always ate lunch together. Boris walked to Bendy's fourth hour class. He opened the door and took a look around. He saw no sign of Bendy.

* Boris's POV

       I walked to his third and second period classes only to leave without any idea where Bendy was. I'm starting to worry about him. I decided that I needed to go to his first class. It was my last option. I ran over to his class and open the door. His teacher was sitting at his desk grading papers. He looked up as soon as I reached his desk.
        " Excuse me sir, but have you seen my brother Bendy?" I ask him. He pondered the question. " This morning he seemed to be in a daze..." He started " So I sent him to the restroom to collect himself, but he didn't come back." He finished. Didn't come back? I thought. Why? I thanked him for his time and made my way out of his classroom. I ran towards the nearest bathroom and entered slowly. I looking at each stall. All empty except for the last one.....

      I made my to the end of the bathroom and stopped in front of the last stall. I drew my fist back and knocked. I heard nothing. I knocked again. "Bendy are you in there buddy?" I asked. No response. I got on my hands and knees to look under the stall to see if it was him.

My heart dropped for what I saw was a small hand covered in black ink.

    As soon as I saw the small hand I knew it was Bendy. Nobody else would have that small of hands. I immediately begin to crawl under the door, but can only get halfway in. I reached my hand over to the lock and just barely reached it to get it   unlocked. I scrambled to stand up and ran over to Bendy.  " Hey buddy. Are you alright?" I asked while tapping his face with my hand. He didn't respond at first but after two more times I got him to move a little for me.
      

* Bendy's POV

       I felt someone tapping my face, but I couldn't move much. I felt it again. I open my eyes slowly and turned to see Boris.
I immediately hugged him. Boris wraps his arms around my sides squeezing my bruise causing me to a let out a sharp exhale. Boris,  not either noticing or choosing to not address it didn't say anything about it . "What happened Bendy?" Boris asked me. " The same sickness as usual" I reply while shaking my head. He looked at me closely. "Are you feeling better?" He asked. I gave him the best smile I could muster. Replying with " Im fine now. Let's get going...". Boris helped me get up off the floor. We made our way over to the sink so I could wash my face off. As it started to get clean I saw the cut from this morning. Boris took notice. "What happened?" He asked as he pointed to the cut. Without looking at him I simply replied with "I fell.". He didn't question it anymore and seemed unconvinced, but said nothing else about it.
         We left the bathroom and walked out one of the exits. We walked to the cherry tree on the field by the school.  We sat down under the shade of the tree. When sitting under the tree we could get a view of the whole schoolyard. Boris took out his lunch and proceeded to eat while I took out my sketchbook and pencil. We talked for a while.  I don't usually eat lunch ....

I don't need it....

   

  "Well I have to go Bendy,but I'll meet you at the gate after school alright?" Boris said I nodded and waved goodbye to him. I sighed as I continued to sketch. I noticed that there was a shadow on my paper. And or some reason ...........

It looked like it was getting bigger............
