"So what are we reacting to now?" Donald asked. "You all will be reacting to a song called 'Welcome Home.'" Lucy explains, "It will help you find some of the answers you seek."

Everyone sat down eager to find the answers.

*Music Starts*

Well, well, well! If it isn't Henry!

Don't be such a stranger, old buddy!

It's been so long since you came back home

"Does he think that Henry abandoned him?" Mickey asks. Oswald thought about the comment before answering, "It's a possibility." "I want to know why Henry left the studio in the first place?!" Willow shouted. 

"Perhaps it has to do with what Joey was doing." Black Hat said, "After all, Wally did say that Joey was trying to please gods.". "Though it seems that this other me is very mad with Henry's absence." Bendy added, "I don't know why though.". Felix wrote the thought down. What was their relationship?

I know you're seein', but not believin'

A picture's worth a thousand words, and look who's holding the pen

You let me out of my cel 

And all the ink's run out of the well

I know you're frightened, but hey just lighten up

How else ya gonna see the shadows in the corner of your eyes?

We've got a killer surprise

It's our thanks for all of your lies

Springin' from the posters and the reel on the tape,

A new dimension for us could be the seal of your fate

And all the years you left us rotting here

With nothing but rejection made us bitter and cold

(So give us what we're owed!)

Everyone growled at this, whole Bendy, Boris, and Alice looked down. They didn't deserve this fate.

I got a million things to say to someone like you

Now answer to all of your selfish deeds

We are the ones you left behind, you put us out of mind

You can't rewind, it's far too late for that now

Now the ink is running faster, say your prayers and hope you'll last

'Cause it's a Hell of a show,

And you're in the front row

Oh Henry welcome home!

You've been away for far too long

No longer sketches, distorted wretches

"Once again we were proven right about the machine giving them life." Felix said as he wrote down the answer in his notebook. "The only question is how?" Flug told his friend. "Also how did the Bendy on the papers move?" Mugman asks.

How could so much have happened since you left so long ago

Well, buddy don't cha know

You're gonna reap what you have sown

Maybe if you blink you'll see it's all in your head

But while your eyes are closed, you might just wind up dead

So make a choice and hope that I

Don't hear your voice 'cause I'm a-comin'

It's the end of the line

(You can't erase this time!)

I got a million memories of agony and pain

Sent down the drain like all the other drafts

Everyone wasn't sure what to consider. Was Bendy tortured to turn into the Ink Demon they saw in the game? "Boy, Joey should be really glad he isn't in our universe," Felix said angrily. 

Ya thought you really got away but now it's time to pay

It's Judgement Day; I'll have the final laugh

Now the ink is running faster, say your prayers and hope you'll last

'Cause it's a Hell of a show,

And you're in the front row

Oh Henry welcome home!

You've been away for far too long

And now as the curtains finally close

You'll see the result of what you chose

Did it have to go this way?

Maybe if you'd only stayed

All this tragedy could have been prevented, but

"So Herny could have prevented everything!" Donald exclaimed, "How come he didn't do anything?!". "As I said before, he probably didn't know." Black Hat said. "It's true, also BATIM Bendy did say that Henry chose to leave." Flug said, "it could have happened before everything Joey did."

"BATIM Bendy?" Polly asks. "Oh, I thought it could be a name we can use for this world's Bendy," Flug explains.

Springin' from the posters and the reel on the tape,

A new dimension for us could be the seal of your fate

And all the years you left us rotting here

With nothing but rejection made us bitter and cold

(Now give us what we're owed!)

Everyone jumped at the dark tone of voice BATIM Bendy used for Henry. For a moment, Bendy was kind of scared until he realized he can learn how to do the voice for scaring Cuphead.

I got a million things to say to someone like you

Now answer to all of your selfish deeds

We are the ones you left behind, you put us out of mind

You can't rewind, it's far too late for that now

Now the ink is running faster, say your prayers and hope you'll last

'Cause it's a Hell of a show

And you're in the front row

Oh Henry welcome home!

You've been away for far too long

Welcome home!

You've been away for far too long

Welcome home!

You've been away for far too long!

"Well," Alice started, "looks like Maybee we have to stay away from machines for a bit. Right Boris." Despite trying to cheer him up, Boris didn't say anything, only nodded and gave a false smile. In a matter of fact he didn't say much after meeting his counterpart. His dead counterpart that is.

"Ok on to the next one." Lucy said.

Sorry for the long wait. I was out of town and I couldn't really work on the chapter. It was kind of a break for me. I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you
