Author's Note:

I have been planning this since chapter 5 and I'm so excited to finally be able to write it. the backstory should only take up a few chapters and will explain the absence of certain characters.


Outside the small house Bendy and Boris sat next to each other waiting to be invited inside. "So, Boris?" "Yeah?" "How'd everyone on the island get back to normal? ...Well Sammy's still a bit off...But everyone else is normal!" Bendy asked. "Oh, I kinda helped with that." Boris replied scratching his head. "How'd ya manage that?! Weren't ya still getting hunted by Alice or somethin'?" Bendy asked a bit eager to hear what his brother did. "Well, it started a few days after you disappeared." 


~~~FLASHBACK FLASHBACK FLASHBACK~~~


Boris was crawling through the vents to avoid running into the angel that was hunting him down when he caught sight of a familiar mask. He crawled towards the vents grate and tried to get the figure's attention. "Hey." Boris whispered but the figure didn't react. "Sammy!" He whisper-shouted. "Huh?" The figure looked down in the direction of the small vent of the floor and bent down to look in it. Sammy was confused upon seeing the wolf and attempted to remove the grate.


"No! Don't open it!" Boris whispered harshly. Sammy stumbled back in surprise. "You can speak!?" Sammy yelled. "Shh!" Boris replied. "Of course I can talk! Why wouldn't I?" Boris whispered to Sammy. "You have never talked before." Sammy whispered. "That wasn't me." "What do you mean it was not you?" Sammy asked. "It was a clone." Boris replied. "You can clone yourself?!" Sammy whispered. "I don't clone myself. The machine does."  


"Why would you need to clone yourself?" Sammy asked. "Because the angel is bat-shit crazy!" Boris whispered harshly, "She thinks that killing me will somehow make her look perfect! How the hell would that even work?" "Is she why you are in the vents?" Sammy asked. "What do you think?" Boris asked flatly. "Right. Why have you come to me? You have never spoken to me before." Sammy asked once again. "Alright, how do I put this... Bendy has gone missing." 


"Lord Bendy has gone missing!" Sammy yelled. "Would ya keep it down!" Boris whispered harshly. "Yes, Bendy has gone missing. He disappeared a few days ago." "How did Lord Bendy find the exit? Why did he not tell us?" Sammy asked a bit disappointed in his lord. "I don't think he found the exit." Boris replied, still in the vent, "I heard him scream and when I got to where the scream came from, I found a bunch of these." He said pulling a few red rocks out of a small bag on his side.


"Bring them out so I can get a closer look at them." Sammy said. "Are you crazy! The angel will get me!" "The angel does not come around this area." Sammy said. "Are you sure?" Boris asked. "Yeah, I am sure. The angel does not know of this place as far as I know." Sammy insisted. "Fine. But if she finds us, you're defending me with your life." Boris said. "And why the hell would I do that?" Sammy asked. "I'm your lord's brother."
