Fate Sealed in Ink

by DeadlyKDPonys


[5] Welcome, Princesses

Everypony was extremly tense after the whole event with Bendy loosing his cool. He has stayed upstairs for a while. Of course nopony dared to go up, in fear of facing the wrath of the demon again. In fact they think it's best to wait until the princesses arrive to actually try to talk to him. Twilifht was the one who stayed as far away from the stairs as possible. She really messed up. She sighed catching her friends attention.

"I really should've asked him first, shouldn't i have?" She asked. Her friends looked at eachother for a moment, then nodded. Twilight groaned. "I can't belive i didn't think through this, maybe i was still frustrated after he teased me before i went upstairs" She tired finding a good explanation about this. Pinkie bounced over to her bestie. "Don't worry, Twilight, i'm sure he'll forgive you" She said. "Pinkie, he Threatend me!" Twilight said. Rarity walked up. "I'm sure he didn't mean it, Darling, He probably went a bit overboard" She explained. Twilight sighed.


For the past Hour everypony has been quiet. There was also no sound from the demon, other then they would hear his footsteps now and again. Everypony was doing their own thing.
Rainbow Dash was taking a nap on one of the plank supporting the roof.
Applejack was also taking a nap, though on the sofa with her hat over her face.
Fluttershy was grooming some of her animal friends.
Rarity was doing some skteching in her sketch book she braught with her, she knew they would stay at Fluttershy's for a while.
Spike was with Rarity complimenting Rarity's desgins, wich she apriciates.
Pinkie Pie wasn't all bouncy now, it took her while but she starts to understand the tension around everypony, even though she wants to see her friends smile, she knows there are some times that are not perfect for humor.
Twilight Sparkle was pacing back and forth, she was just waiting for the princesses to arrive so she could finally try to apolagize to Bendy.

As if her prayers had been answered. There was a knock on the door. Fluttershy stood up and stepped carefully towards the door. She opened it to reveal two guard ponies. They didn't make eye contact with the girls as the first one said. "We have come here with the princesses, will you allow them to enter, Elements Of Harmony?" The girls looked at eachother, they almost forgot that's how the royal guards adresses them now. Fluttershy, being the one who opened the door nodded. "Yes of course" She said. The others nodded aswell, just for clearifictation.

The guards nodded and stepped out of the way to reveal the alicorn sisters. The girls were suprised, and a little weary that the Princesses had braught bags of perhaps suplies, but for what? The siters entered the cottage and Celestia turned towards the guards and told them to wait outside. They nodded and left, closing the door behind them.

The girls noticed the princesses were looking around, as if they were looking for something, No Someone. They know of course why the royal sisters are here. Bendy. There was silence for a while, in fact for the girls it felt like an hour. Luna was the first to speak up. "So Where is this Ink demon you wrote about in the letter, Princess Twilight?" She asked. Twilight gulped. She so regreted sending the letter, she regreted it with every fiber in her body. "W-well, You see...He is here, it's jsut..." She barley couldn't speak.

Everypony heard movement from the top floor leading towards the stairs. 'Oh shoot, he's comming' Twilight slightly panicked. She was worried that everything could go worng after Bendy lost his cool and everything else that happend. Twilight was just a nervous wreck at this point. Bendy has stepped down the stairs, his eyes closed. He looked calm atleast, it was probably a good idea to leave him be for that time. The Mane 6 noticed something different about Bendy, his hair is slightly messy, his bowtie is gone, and his aura was slightly darker, though he still had his cane. But It's like he intensionly changed himself to look more intimidating or more serious.

The girls could also see that Princesses had put their guard up noticing the demon. Bendy opened his eyes to see the two alicorn princesses. Few moments had gone by the 'intense' staring competition the three apearently had. Then Bendy bowed. "It's nice to meet you, Your hignesses" He said. The princessed returned a small nod. "You have manners and respect, not to mention your dress code is quite nice, slightly unexpected" Celestia said. "Though looks can be decieving" Luna commented. Then realazation hit the mane 6 like a brick to the head. After hanging around Bendy for the day, they slightly understand him more. Now they know that Bendy actually has a stradegy.

He looks like this to be seen as a intimidating Demon, but to be revealed as a demon who won'tmean any harm. As the Saying goes "Looks can be decivieng". 'That sneaky little-' Twilight cut her own thoughts off as she looked at Bendy. He could tell that the girls have realized his plan and gave them a small smirk. They didn't want to reveal anything, so they all mentally hoofpalmed themselves.

The Alicorn sisters didn't notice it. They looked over at everypony and then back at Bendy. "So, Shall we start discussing things?" Celestia asked. "Yes, we shall" Bendy replied. The Princesses didn't want to admit it, but they found Bendy's voice to be enchanting (Are you guys noticing any hints here?!) , Bendy sat down on the couch and the mane 6 sat one the floor in front of the couch, as if defending The demon. The Princesses stood where they stood. There was silence yet again.

'This is gonna take all night isn't it?' Twilight asked herself.


For the past 4 hours the princesses has been asking questions, and Bendy has answered them, too simply might i add. The girls actually thought he's going around the questions but at the same time it doesn't. He is a Demon, but he is too clever. The princesses have asked about his 'Motives' wich he found a little offensive. It didn't seems like The princesses will trust him. 'There's got to be a way for us to reveal he's not what he seems, but how, he better has a plan for Equestria sake!' Twilight was panicking.

Then all of a sudden they were intorupted by the gurads bursting in, scaring the mane 6 in the proscess. "Your Highness, there's a filly in touble" The first guard said. Everypony gasped and ran outside into the night, Bendy following them. "Who's in trouble do you know their name?" Princess Celestia asked. "The fillies who reported us said her name is Sweetie Belle" The guard said. Rarity gasped dramaticly. "What's happening? Is there something wrong with her?" She asked.

"The fillies explained that she wanted to try out a cloud walking spell, and tested it out on a cloud, but she failed and now she's falling!" The guard explained. Twilight quickly looked over to Rainbow. "Rainbow, can you fly up and save her?" She asked. The pegasus frowned. "I can't see her, and with my speed, i might harm her!" She said. Rarity was now crying. "Will somepony please save my little sister?!" She asked. When Bendy heard that, his eyes widden. He looked up into the sky, they may not be able to see the falling filly, but he did. He saw the filly, Sweetie Belle falling, flaling her hooves around.

He tighten his grip on his cane and then sprinted past everypony. "Bendy!" Twilight called out. He didn't hear her, he was focused on the target in the sky. Evrypony observed Bendy when he reached his point and stabbed his cane into the ground. All of a sudden a mountain of Ink just sprout up from the ground boosting The demon up into the sky. And then suddenly The Filly was in his arms, though the inmacpt of catching her causes Bendy to start falling to the earth. He closed his eyes in concentraition and reached his hand out in the direction of the ink mountain. It then formed a platform that just suddenly burst up to the sky and stops as Bendy lands on it. He contoled the platform to move towards the group of ponies. When he reached the ground all the ink began to liquify and then form into Bendy's cane.

He looked over at the filly in his arms. She had her eyes closed and was shaking. "You can open your eyes now, Little One" He said. Sweetie Belle slowly opened her eyes to see the ponies around her, she looked up to see her savior. She didn't care of how strange he looked when she hugged him. Bendy was taken off guard by that. He then smiled and then kneeled to the ground to set the filly down. That was when Rarity came over to embrace her little sister.

"Oh, Sweetie Belle, i'm so glad you're Ok, Don't ever do that again, you hear me?!" She asked, letting Sweetie Belle go. The filly looked down at the ground. "I'm so sorry, Rarity, i guess i'm not old enough to perform such a spell. I guess i have to wait a little longer" She said. Rarity sighed. "Atleast you're safe" The fashionista said. She looked up at Bendy. "Thank you, Bendy, for saving her, how can i ever repay you?" She said, suddenly hugging Bendy too. "Whoah, Now i wasn't expecting Two hugs in one Day" The Demon said. "Seriously though, You don't need to thank me, I didn't want to see you in such despair if you lost your Sister" He added. He then saw the shocked looks of the Princesses and stood up.

"Now i know what you're thinking, Why did i save her?" He said. He didn't wait for a response and continued. "Look, i may be a Demon, but that doesn't instantly mean i am Bad. When you asked me about my 'Motives' or 'what a foul creature like me was doing here' I will not lie i was offended. When you say i'm bad just because i'm a demon, then i say that's basic Racism right there" He said. Everypony gasped. The alicorns were speechless. But Bendy continued. "I think these girls right here were the first people to not judge me because of what i am, they took the day to get to know me, and concluded that i wasn't evil. Twilight, Why don't you tell the princesses of your little research" The demon said. Twilight nodded and looked over at the princesses.

"Yes, Princess Celestia, He's not evil, he's not bad. A little mischevious here and there, but no harm done. In fact i had second thoughts about sending you the letter, because i was worried that you would judge him and banish him" She explained. Celestia just stared at Twilight, still suprised. "Now for the reason why i saved Sweetie Belle, well when i heard Rarity say that she was her Little sister. I found the situation to be even more grave, so i had to do something. I didn't want to see Rarity to go through such a loss like i did!" Bendy said. Now everypony was suprised at that.

"I had Friends, but i saw them more as family. They were the only ones who loved me for who i was. When Rarity said that Sweetie Belle was her little sister, it made me think about.." He paused, strugling to say the name. "..Her" Was all he could say. The Princesses was confused at that. It took some thought, but Tiwlight then realized who he was talking about.

"Alice Angel" She said.

Bendy stiffened at the mentionof the name. Twilight walked over to the Demon. "It Made you think about Alice Angel. She was like a sister to you, wasn't she?" She asked. Bendy relaxed a bit and nodded. "And yes i know what all of you are thinking, the name says it all. She was an Angel. I know, That Demons and Angels aren't known to get along with eachother, but i think that's the reason we existed. To prove that some Angels and Demons can get along with eachother. I cared so much for her, wich is why it hurted so much when she..." He stopped for a moment, holding back a tear. "When she disapeared" He finnished.

He then felt a small hoof was placed on his leg, he looked down to see Sweetie Belle looking up at him, frowning. The demon gave her a small smile knelt down to her and stroked her mane. "I don't want anyone else to expirence such pain that i went through after loosing my family" He said, not making eye contact with the princesses.

The Alicorn sisters looked at eachother. Then Luna cleared her throat, catching everyone's attention. "Well, Then, i guess since we have misjudged you, Mr. Bendy, We Apolagize" She said. Celestia nodded in agreement. "How about we go back inside to proparly get to know you?" She asked. Bendy smiled as he stood up and gave a bow. "I would apriciate that very much, Your Highnesses" He said. The mane 6 suddenly sighed in relief. "I though for sure that things was gonna go bad" Pinkie said. "I actually held my breath at one point" Fluttershy said. "I'll be honest, one of the most tense moment i've expirenced in my life" Applejack said.

The alicorn sisters giggles slightly at that, and was on their way inside the cottage. Then everypony else went in except the guards, Rarity and Sweetie Belle. The Fashionista looked down at her sister. "Sweetie, how about you go home?" She asked. The unicorn filly shook her head. "No, I want to stay here" She said. Rarity was suprised by that. "Why?" She asked. Sweetie Belle slightly blushed. "I want to get to know my hero" She said. Rarity's eyes slightly widden, but then smiled. "Allright, but don't make him uncomterfble" She said on her inside. The filly quickly walked after her.

"I won't" She promised.
