EXECUTION [5]: BENDY THE DANCING DEMON

There was a lot that Bendy had revealed when it was discovered he was the one to kill Uta and Justin.

From the fact that everything’s being broadcasted.

To the fact that he did this– became the traitor because he wanted to know that feeling of fame again. He explained his actions through tears, making it clear that he didn’t want to be doing this. That he regretted his actions, but, it was too late for that. Wasn’t it?

He had killed two people had grew fond of. 

There was no turning back from that, was there? He listens as the others tell him that they’re not mad at him - and breaks down on the spot when he discovers he’s the most hated person in the fucking world. 

He did this for nothing.

And he– the ultimate actor…

No.

The ultimate despair had to pay for it.

It’s EXECUTION TIME!

chapter two [end]

He wasn’t sure how long he was in the execution room for. 

He knew that it was long enough for him to be completely alone, sitting on his knees, staring up towards the silhouette of a person he had admittedly grown closer to than he’d like to admit to. 

Bendy could feel his inky heart pound against his chest hard- he felt like he could pass out at any given moment- but not at any physical exhaustion.

Of course he was exhausted- he went for a week straight without any kind of rest. He wasn’t one to get much sleep, anyways, so that wasn’t much of a challenge for him. Being forced to physically be unable to move was  something that Bendy thought wouldn’t ever happen to him, but that was asides the point. 

He didn’t think a second murder would happen so quickly.

He didn’t think that someone would murder so quickly, and he certainly never thought that he’d be this affected by it. 

For what feels like the first time in ages, Bendy’s able to move his arms with his own free will. Looks like he just needed something to shock him awake, didn’t he? His eyes move from the silhouette of Wataru’s corpse to his hands, and he notices something.

He’s shaking. 

It’s only then he realized how quiet everything is. He can hear the sound of the blood dripping off the contraption drip onto the floor, and he can hear the sounds of absolutely nothing just behind him.

He’s alone, isn’t he? 

Bendy takes one more glance up towards Wataru’s silhouette, and everything is finally able to sink in.

He’s killed him. 

It was against his own will, but he’s still killed him- his best friend, a brother, of some sorts. Didn’t that mean he was supposed to be executed, too? He didn’t want to die. He didn’t want to die, he can’t die- he still has so much to do back at home. He can’t die. Not here. Not for something he had no control over.

Bendy’s breathing starts to get heavier as each second passes, the tears he’s been holding back for what felt like hours begin to fall, and...

He lets out a scream he didn’t know he could do. 

Bendy screams, and screams, and screams, until he runs out of air. The ink on his body starts to fall to the floor beneath him, falling all over his eyes to the point he could barely see what was in front of him anymore. 

He topples over onto the floor, and feels his eyelids get heavier with each passing second, and falling victim to the exhaustion finally catching up to him. He knew the rules. He knew you weren’t supposed to sleep anywhere that wasn’t your room, but that was the least of his worries.

If he were to get punished for it, he deserved it... did he not?

@devilishacting

There was that… creature again. Oh no just looking at them was giving her the chills. It was a student but should she side with Daki? Or just accept them like Totoko had? Obviously not on the level of letting them ride on her shoulders but maybe at least say hello. “H-hello.” Oh that came out easier then she thought.

Now they were walking over… was she going to have to talk to them? Uh oh.

“I’m s-sorry I’m sorry! P-please don’t get any closer.” Suki stumbled back, almost pushing up against the wall behind her. Her teeth were gritted uncomfortably. Might as well ask what had been torturing her for so long. “Are… a-are you made of i-ink?”

Lord, Bendy had never seen such a weak-minded person in his life before. The first thing Bendy notices about her is her arms - but he knows best not to mention it. Besides, it’s something she probably doesn’t want to talk about. However, he wants to get a chance to get to know all of the attendees on the island, with him. It’d be no fun if he didn’t know anybody, anyways!

But, as he approaches her to say hello, he notices that she backs up and there’s a certain look of fear in her eyes that he can’t help but to frown at just a little bit. He wasn’t made for fear- he was made to give people a laugh. 

“Oh, well, alrighty, then.” 

He respects Suki’s wishes, holding up his hands to the side of his head before he blinks his eyes. Of course, he’s not surprised that she asks him a question - but at the same time... he can’t help but feel the answer to her question was, well. Obvious.

“‘Course I’m made outta ink. Did it take ‘ya that long to figure it out?”

He had wanted to avoid the entertainment rooms. He really had. But eventually, he knows he needs a distraction to pull himself out of this funk he’s found himself settled into. And perhaps the easiest way to do so is to indulge in a good film or two, like he would have were he in the safety of his own home. Maybe it would have been better to simply pick some out and head back to his room, but now that he was here, he might as well stay.

Wataru perches upon a couch, sitting quietly focused on the screen as his choice of movie progresses. Animated films with boisterous songs were a good choice for a mood lift, weren’t they?

‘…never had a friend like me,’ they sing, and he can’t help but sigh to himself. Wasn’t he trying to distract himself here, yet he was getting wound up in his thoughts all over again?

“But they didn’t,” he mutters to himself, leaning back fully on the chair, taking mind to not fall on the one sitting next to him, trying o focus again, and–wait. Wait.

Looking off to his side, sure enough, there’s one inky demon perched next to him. Casually, like he’d been there the whole time, but to think that Wataru somehow had been so lost he hadn’t even noticed him entering–?! He’s really out of touch right now.

“…Since when have you been sitting there? You’ve certainly manged to surprise me quite a bit, Bendy! How impressive… ☆” He’ll pretend he wasn’t just startled instead opting for the faux air of normalcy he’d been trying to project elsewhere.

@devilishacting

The entertainment rooms were something that nobody had really ever bothered to touch ever since... the murder. Bendy couldn’t exactly blame everyone else for it, though. Although Bendy hadn’t hesitated to vote Goro off- he still found it hard himself to even walk by it without feeling some sort of dread in the lower pits of his stomach. 

This time, however, as he walks by it, he overhears the sounds of quite a familiar movie playing as he walks by it. He had been on the floor to go to the kitchen to grab a carton of ink (thank god he discovered those, honestly! they sure are saving his life when he needs a quick refresher!) but Bendy can’t help but get distracted by the sounds of a movie.

Maybe it was the fact that he was an actor- but he loved watching films. Especially if they were animated-- and especially if it was with someone else. That’s why, Bendy doesn’t hesitate to find himself waltzing his way inside and sitting up on the couch next to the magician, not saying a word - his eyes fixated on the screens before the two of them. 

Then, the magician finally addresses him and mentions that he hadn’t seen him sitting there at all. To that, the devil laughs - but not in a mean way. He’s more amused at that fact, after all! 

“I’ve been sittin’ here for the past forty minutes, and yer just now noticin’ me?” He asks, as soon as the musical number playing on the screen comes to an end. Besides- he can’t interrupt such a nice song. “Can’t say I’m not surprised. It’s easy to get lost in animation, ain’t it, Wataru?”

      You know what a good way of getting everyone’s attention in the dining hall at breakfast is? Blowing a loud whistle, of course! They’re damn lucky she didn’t get out the bullhorn, but she wasn’t feeling it today.

      “So, now that I got yer attention, I’d like t’make an announcement.” Peacock with an announcement doesn’t seem to be a good thing, and she can tell some people are already ignoring her for their breakfast, so she cuts right to the chase. “I went through the murderer’s room, and he had a murder notebook!”

      Peacock holds it high in the air, a bit smug knowing she has their undivided attention now. “He wrote about all of you! That’s right, each and every one of youse, even me! He was tryin’ to think about how to off most of us, too! Kinda fucked up, ain’t it?”

      By now, more people have gathered, curious about what the hell this girl is talking about. She plops herself down on the table she was standing on, opening it to the very beginning. Oh, it’s easy to tell that some of her peers are wondering why she was in Goro’s room to begin with, but she isn’t here to answer those questions. 

      “Hey, y’wanna know what he said about ya?” She’s turning to the person standing closest to her, immediately turning to their page in the notebook. “It might be good stuff!”

Having been drinking ink through a carton as if it were milk and he were just a toddler, Bendy looks up when he hears the familiar sound of his biggest fan enter the room and make a rather...interesting proclamation. Bendy blinks, setting the carton down to his side before he pushes himself off from where he was sitting. Making his way over towards Peacock, he looks over her shoulder.

“A murder notebook, huh?”

“Goro sure is more...” Right, he can’t curse. “... Hecked up than I thought he was gonna be. Say- did he write anythin’ down ‘bout me?” Although they’re practically the same size, Bendy stands on the tips of his toes, trying to get a better look at the pages flipped open, trying to locate his name. 

[devilishacting-blog]

CHAPTER ONE [END]

On one hand, he finds it all completely amusing. 

Did he expect someone to actually kill? Well,of course he did- yes. But he didn’t think it would be happening so soon, despite the fact that there had been a motive.

Besides, he had very much expected that the thing the bear had been threatening for quite some time had been nothing. But yet, as he stands there in the trial room, Bendy finds that he’s one of the last few to leave. His attention turned up towards the blood stained windows of the cage, to the lifeless corpse who sat in the middle of it. 

He takes in a deep breath, and finally finds the strength in him to leave the trial room, back to the elevator all the way to the third floor, and finally back to door that led to his room. Bendy steps inside of it, keeping his attention on the floor as he jumped up and landed on his couch. He grabs the remote resting against the desk next to his couch, and flips the television on.

The countdown was gone, and in it’s place, a recording of one of his old movies. 

It’s like as if nothing had happened just a few hours ago. 

Did he feel bad for technically being at the cause of Goro’s death? Absolutely not. He killed and he deserved the punishment he got for it. 

But did he feel....strange about it? About...something? 

Of course he did. 

Bendy raises up a hand to his cheek and feels the ink dripping off his face. Great. He didn’t need this right now, he thought to himself. Quietly, he flipped his television off and headed into his room, making himself comfortable on his bed.

He wasn’t much of a sleeper. He was a cartoon, he didn’t need it, anyways. 

But he’s had enough for the day.

He just wants to get some sleep.

Akihiko was still trying to process what had just occurred when he felt a sudden weight leaning on him; the drop in his gut from the unexpected contact told him that he was more on-edge than he realized. He turned to face his diminutive companion, frowning at their choice of words.

“I’m…still not sure exactly what’s going on here, but I’d prefer a boring vacation where everyone survives any day. And besides…” He gives a half-hearted smirk. “…how rich d’you have to be where an island resort like this bores you, anyway?”

Rich? Well, that sure was a joke! So much so, in fact, that Bendy laughs at the proclamation before giving a gentle slap to the boy's shoulder. Nevermind the fact that he left a bit of an inky handprint upon doing so, but details, right? 

"Rich? That's funny! Just 'cuz I'm the ultimate actor doesn't mean I've got money." He could tell that he was just being messed with from the get-go, but he couldn't help but make that little fact about himself known.

"I've been havin' just as much fun as everyone else is. The fact that we’ve gotta kill eachother now just makes it even more interestin’." Bendy continues on with his thought, before he takes a moment to observe the guy he was talking to. Say, wasn't this...

"Hey, what's yer name? The only thing I know about 'ya is you almost threw me in the pool when I said I couldn't swim."

“Murder, huh?”

Whether he was invited to or not, Bendy finds himself hopping up onto the drawer that separated him from the much taller figure and leans an inky arm against their shoulder as he glances over to the side. “Can ‘ya believe it? I mean, I personally can’t, but it sure would liven things up a lil if someone actually turned up dead.” 

Should he be more cautious with his words? Yes, definitely- besides, the person he could be talking to might not be handling the current situation well at all. There’s a chance the last thing they would’ve wanted was to think about the possibilities of someone on this island turning up dead. 

[devilishacting-blog]

There were plenty of things to do on the island- so much in fact, that it overwhelmed the little ink demon by just a smudge. While Bendy wasn’t able to do everything just yet- he figured that for the time being, he should lay low and explore the hotel that he was going to be staying for the next following weeks. Hey, might as well, right? Who knows, maybe he’d get a chance to meet someone else. 

Actually, Bendy had been so focused on himself, he realized- he didn’t actually know anybody else on this vacation with him! Well at least now he knew that meeting people was something he had to do for certain, now. 

Letting his feet do all the walking for him without any real thought of where he was heading towards, Bendy made his way out of his room and to the hotel - pressing whichever button (not without jumping, of course! you can only do so much when you’re so short...!)  his little finger could press. Within just a matter of seconds, Bendy found himself at...

...The pool. 

Fantastic. Not wanting to embarrass himself, Bendy made his way off the elevator and observed the pool area to see that there were a fair amount of people there too. Some in the pool, some sitting in the chairs nearby - maybe there were some inside of the spa located there, too? He couldn’t be too sure. Like hell he’d go in and check for himself, if he went in there, he’d die! 

Bendy frowned, as he stumbled his way over towards the first chair he could find. He turned it around, shielding himself from the water ahead of him as he peeked out and silently observed. “I can’t swim.” He says loudly enough and huffs, unaware that the chair seated next to him had someone sitting in it already. Who probably saw his embarrassing mistake. Great.

“Oh. So I could do this,” Proceeds to take his head off from his shoulders. “Ain’t it neat? The things ‘ya could do without a neck!” 

He puts his head back over his shoulders and shakes himself off. It never felt good taking your own head off, even if you’re showing off what you can do with your cartoon physics...!

      Is… Is that who she thinks it is?

      Being on an island vacation suddenly is disorientating enough as it is, but apparently, she’s sharing the island with Bendy!? The Bendy!?! She almost can’t believe her eyes, but considering she has six of them, there’s no way she can be hallucinating!

      Having watched his show for years, Peacock has been a fan of his for as long as she can remember. The other kids she knew never seemed as interested in it as she was, and considering his show has been finished for years, it’s no wonder everyone besides the cartoon aficionado would be so invested! Hey, shouldn’t everyone else on this island be aware they’re in the presence of a celebrity at least!? They should be a bit more starstruck! What the hell is up with that?

      Gosh, she’s almost too giddy to even approach him! Admiring him from afar won’t get him to notice her, so she might as well make her existence known to him now!

      “Hiya!” she cheerfully greets, waving him down. Peacock’s so excited that she’s speaking a lot faster than usual. “Y’don’t know me, but I definitely know you! Bendy, right!? The name’s Peacock, and I’m a big fan! Not sure if y’can really give me an autograph or anything, but seein’ you in the flesh…

                                                                                          … It’s like a dream come true!”

For far too long, Bendy had gone through a long period in his life where his fame had diminished. What a joke, right? The Ultimate Actor-- known for his acting skills, can’t even get a single person to point him out in public and say his name. But eventually, Bendy was able to handle it - find a way to cope with it and continue on his merry way.

Besides- he had a vacation to worry about. It’s not like anybody there would recognize him, everyone here on this island with him attended his school, didn’t they? It’s not like anybody would point him out- as far as he could tell, he didn’t recognize a single face. Stretching his arms above his head, Bendy kicked the sand underneath him as his eyes scanned the surrounding area to see if there was something he could do.

Beach tennis courts... Nah. Nobody really looked like they wanted to play. Check into his hotel room? Nah- he didn’t feel like unpacking his bags just yet. Swim? Hell no- he’ll wash away with it! Talk to the person approaching him, talking quickly, calling herself a fan, asking for his autog-- wait, what? 

Bendy’s attention turns to the young looking girl approaching him quickly and clearly excited, her eyes beaming as she’s making eye contact with him. His lips part, however, he doesn’t say anything. Is it true? Did she seriously recognize him? It takes him a few moments to process all the words she’s telling him, but when it finally registers in his mind that oh my god this girl is a fan of mine and she wants my autograph she actually recognizes me-- he shows her his signature grin and snaps his fingers. 

"Yer right! That’s me- Bendy, the dancin’ demon!” He gives her an overly dramatic bow before winking at her. “Peacock, huh? Well, it’s a great pleasure’ta see a fan around! It’s really not everyday I get to meet with one. If ‘ya want an autograph, I’m more than happy to give ‘ya one.”
