Reanimate The Future

Chapter 13: From One Hell To Another

"Why didn't you just leave her Henry" Snapped Bridgette as she crossed her arms over her chest, tapping her foot against the ground clearly trying to control some kind of anger.

"I'm not leaving her to die" Henry Snapped back as he glared up at Bridgette, taking a glance at Cherry who seemed exhausted beyond belief.

"I could've gotten out if she did" Spat Bridgette as she sent more glares down towards Henry, feeling the rage and anger boil up inside her.

"So that's what you did... Bendy went to attack you considering the light punchers on your forearm... then you made a deal with the demon to get out of here considering your last few words... and now here we are... even after I decided to bring you with me... when let me remind you I clearly didn't have too... you still turned your back on me" Stated Cherry as an unimpressed expression covered her face as she looked up at Bridgette, wanting to strangle the living daylights out of her.

"So what if I did?" Questioned Bridgette in a slight proud and arrogant tone, looking down at Cherry with an almost victorious expression.

"You can find your own way out... you're not coming with us anymore" Stated Cherry as she gave Bridgette a death glare, now having enough of her arrogant ways.

"Excuse me?" Asked Bridgette in a slight offended tone as she looked down at Cherry, showing a slight hint of shock over her face not believing what she had just said.

"You heard me" Replied Cherry as she gave Bridgette a blank stare, glancing down at her right leg to see more blood seeping out of it knowing it needed a new bandage on it.

"Hold on a second... that does seem a bit harsh Cherry... she might've tried to get you killed... but you've always got me watching your back" Stated Henry as he lightly placed a hand on Cherry's shoulder, the pair of them giving each other a small smile.

"Fine... but you're gonna be the one babysitting her" Replied Cherry as she turned her gaze away to look at her right leg, starting to pull the bandage off exposing her leg to see the blood seeping down her leg.

Then silence fell over the room as Cherry rummaged in her bag. Grabbing another bandage out of the bag and started it wrap it around her leg. Tightly fastening the bandage around her leg, making sure that it wouldn't unravelled as she walked. Letting out a little sigh now feeling somewhat relaxed after the incident. Carefully lifting herself up off the floor, then offering a hand to Henry. Which he took and picked himself up off the floor as well. Standing beside Cherry as he gave her a tiny smile.

"Come on... let's get out of here" Said Cherry as she headed towards one of the corridors, gripping the axe in her hands as she heard footsteps following her behind.

Feeling the rage and anger burning inside her. Wanting to knock Bridgette out for what she'd done, but now seeing that Henry would never fully back her up. Now knowing where his loyalties were still spilt, not makings time any easier. The eerie atmosphere consumed the desolate halls. Footsteps echoed in the soundings only adding to the atmosphere. Until there was the faint sound of music resonating in the hallways.

Quickly Cherry put her hand up to signal the pair behind her to stop. Henry and Bridgette glanced at each other skeptically as they watched Cherry creep ahead of them. Hearing the music getting louder and louder until she finally reached the end of the corridor. Letting out a frustrated sigh, as she slightly looked up and rolled her eyes.

"It's alright... come on you two" Said Cherry as she waved the pair of them down, not even bothering to look over her shoulder just keeping her gaze slightly towards the ceiling.

Cautiously the pair of them approached Cherry standing in the archway. Their eyes seeing a very large room filled with all kinds of thing. Mainly things that would be used for a fairground rides. The place looked like an idea book had exploded over the room. Wires and a few bits of paper thrown around the ground and walls. Little side rooms leading off to different areas. Eventually the pair followed Cherry's gaze to the ceiling. Seeing a sign hanging above them, unfortunately it had been drawn over. Originally it read "Bendy Land" now it read "Bendy Hell", with the signature demons face in the dead centre. Along with blazing lights surrounding the arched sign hanging from the ceiling.

"What is this place?" Questioned Henry as he looked around the room in amazement, never even knowing that this place was even in the studio to begin with.

"A domain I used to reside in" Stated Cherry as she turned her gaze away and walked down a set of stairs to the floor, seeming somewhat depressed being in this room.

"Cherry?" Asked Henry as he caught the slight hint of unhappiness in her tone, staying on the balcony as he watched Cherry walk to the middle of the room and stand still.

Cherry gazed about the room, feeling all the memories flooding back to her. For once pulling a smile being a place that felt like home to her. Looking at some of the things she had help build and create when she was little. Remember when her skills started to flourish in this environment. Then feeling the guilt hit her, knowing all of this torment to everyone was caused by a creation she'd made...

"Well... Well... Well... The Creator has returned to her domain" Spoke a voice over a few speakers in the room, making all of them look up at them with Cherry recognising that voice instantly.

"Bertrum?" Questioned Cherry as she looked around the room, not believing that it was his voice speaking and echoing in the room.

"I wouldn't sound surprised Cherry... I never left... I'm still here" Said Bertrum through the speakers with a slight chuckle at the end, leaving Cherry, Henry and Bridgette on edge unsure what was going on.

The chuckled echoing in the room, becoming louder and louder by the second. Making Cherry, Henry, and Bridgette looking around in fear. Cherry wondering what had happened Bertrum to make him seem slightly insane. Feeling that they had just walked into the inventors hell...
