Same Story, Something New

33 - Ink Demon vs Ink Queen

Helen's POV

Once I pulled Bendy's soul out, I let go of it, and it floated away.

"There." I said with a nod.

I was about to run when the Ink Demon grabbed my neck. "Oh no you don't. You're not getting away that easily."

"Ma..." I began.

He covered my mouth and tightened his grip. "That's not happening either. Now I'd thank you for freeing me, but you destroyed the End Reel. Because of that, I can't fulfill my orders. If I can't end this inky world of ours, then I'll have to settle for ending you."

He then tossed me aside. Then I heard the sounds of ink dripping and bones cracking all at once as he began to transform. I watched in horror as the Ink Demon turned into a true monster.

The Ink Demon's new form was far more terrifying. It was much larger, and almost entirely ink-black in color. Compared to his original form, the shape of his form was almost symmetrical. While his eyes were completely absent, the beast's enlarged head lost a lot of cartoonish traits. It had a wide mouth with two rows of fierce sharp teeth, filthy gums, longer slim horns, and broader blade-shaped spines on the back. The bowtie and left glove for his hand were gone.

The upper structure was larger, and the shoulders were more stretched and sporting a long nail on each both elbows. The chest was covered with needle-like thorns, and there were surprisingly large arms with gnarly hands. Either hand possessed four-clawed fingers, two holes that bore heavy reminiscence to the style of the original Bendy's gloves. His lower body was much smaller than his upper torso as his legs and lower chest are very lanky. His feet, however, were still asymmetrical but changed differently. His right foot sported three toes, while the left was extremely underdeveloped to the point was nothing more than a stubby spike.

I was terrified of him, and he knew it. "Your fear is hysterical. Now it's time to break you. Literally."

I tried to run, but he grabbed me before I could. He then lifted me into the air, and used his full strength to squeeze me. I was overwhelmed by immense pain as I felt bones shatter. Then, I screamed.

Suddenly, the pressure was gone, and I fell to the floor. I looked up, and saw Mama, who was in her Ink Queen form.

"Nobody. Hurts. My. Baby." She snarled.

Susan's POV

We ran in to help my sister when she screamed, but mother beat us to the throne room. Once she arrived, she created a transparent golden barrier to block us off. With a wave of her hand, Helen's form flew through the air, and into her mother's arms. Mother held my baby sister with one arm while using the other to hold her scepter.

"Alice Angel. I've been looking forward to this ever since Bendy locked me away in our head. I owe your daughter one for removing Bendy. So I promise she'll have a quick death once you're dead."

The Ink Queen literally growled, then looked at Helen. "How do you want this to go down baby?"

My sister was now in her Little Ink Angel form. "Mama, nobody's allowed to threaten your life. Make. Him. Suffer."

My rage was boiling, and I was struggling to stay calm. "Mother, may I make a request?" I slowly asked.

She nodded. "What do you want my lovely daughter?"

Allison's POV

I watched Susan close her eyes as she took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled. It was an obvious attempt to calm herself, but it didn't work at all. When she opened her eyes she had transformed.
