So, here's my first story. It was originally just an idea that popped into my head one day and I rolled with it. I may or may not continue. Anyway, constructive criticism is appreciated. Also , some characters are probably OOC. I haven't read much of the Diamond Pearl Arc yet.
Another important note is that this small series starts like the three games of FNAF go in. FNAF 2, FNAF, and the FNAF 3. So this is based around FNAF 2.
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon Special/Adventures manga or the Five Nights at Freddy's. That credit goes to their amazing creators.
Platinum looked over the news article she had found that advertised a job opening as a night guard in the new Dex Holders Museum. She might have been rich, but she wasn't taking this job for the money. She was taking it since she felt as though she needed to pay some respect to her fallen comrades. Platinum looked over the article once more, it read;
HELP WANTED
Grand Opening!
A Museum dedicated to the original ten Dex Holders.
Come be a part of the legacy these ten left behind!
$100.50 a week!
To apply, call XXX-XXX-XXXX
Platinum had called and had instantly been given the spot. Being a fellow Dex Holder the Professors instantly hired her. So here she was, in front of the Museum. She felt unnerved by the fact that she would finally get to see her seniors. Just not in the way that she would like.
The sound of the door opening pulled her from her thought.
The dark blue haired girl looked over to see an elderly man walk towards her.
"Hello!" He said cheerfully. "And welcome to the new Pokemon Dex holders Museum!" He grabbed Platinum's hands. "When we heard that a fellow Dex holder wanted to be the one that watched over the animatronics, Elm, Birch and I couldn't say no. Besides this way we can have you here all the time and you can help with the tours if we need it." He led Platinum into the Museum. "Now, let's get you into your office."
Platinum looked around the rooms she walked through, memorizing the layout of the building.
"And here we are!" Oak said a little excitedly. It was a fairly average sized room. There was a wheeled chair behind a table. There was a tablet on the table along with a flashlight and… a mask?
"Um… Professor, what is the mask for?" Platinum asked carefully.
Oak looked over to the piece of plastic. "Oh?" He held it up. It was a mask of none other than Sird. "I think Wally left it here." Oak set the mask back down. "He said something about the animatronics not working properly at night."
Platinum made a mental note that she would need to contact this Wally sometime and ask him about that.
"Anyway, it's almost midnight. Your shift is about to start. I'll leave you alone now. See you in the morning!" He waved to her as he proceeded to leave the building.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
That beeping was the sign that the shift had started.
Platinum sat down in the chair and looked at the phone. It had a recording on it. 'Might as well play it.' The Berlitz thought. She hesitantly pressed the play button.
"Uh, hello? Hello? Welcome to your new job at the brand new and improved Museum of Pokemon History. I'm here to talk you through your first week on this new and exciting career path.
Now the company would like it if you would forget anything you may have heard about robots. People sometimes tend to view those things as bad because of all those horror films on them. Ever since… the accident… the Museum has spent a small fortune on making the new parts to it. The first ten Dex holders animatronics! Since there are kids around here they wanted the robots to be able to tie people into a criminal database. You know, to help the kids see the Dex holders as good people. So they can detect bad people a mile away!
But the system has got its kinks. Uh, the guy before you was the first night guard there. He complained about… conditions. We switched him over to the day shift. Uh, he mainly expressed concern about the animatronics trying to get into his office. That should be impossible. The museum should be the safest place on earth. Our engineers didn't really have an explanation for that… but my theory is that the robots were never given a proper "night mode". So they think that they are in the wrong room and that they need to go find anyone to see if they have any questions about them. So we have a temporary solution. There is a Salamence plush toy that makes growling noises in one room. It doesn't seem to affect any of them except one. You need to keep it wound up or it will stop. The others we have an easier solution. Just place that mask on. It seems that when the robots see that specific face they try to get as far away as possible. They don't really like that woman.
There is also the building's structure. There are no doors, but you have a handy flashlight. And even if your flashlight runs out of power, the building cannot. So check the light, put that mask on if you need to, and keep the Salamence toy wound up, it'll be easy! Have a good night and I'll talk to you tomorrow!" -Click-
Platinum sighed. That message had taken around three hours of the night already. She picked up the tablet. Might as well check on the building. She looked at the Kanto Dex holder part of the building. The robots looked fairly broken. "Red. Green. Blue. Yellow." She whispered their names out loud. The rich girl had read about her seniors. It saddened her that the things meant to show the world how great they were, were being trashed.
Thunk! Thunk!
Platinum snapped her head to the source of the noise; the right vent. She hesitantly turned on the light. It took all her will not to scream at that moment.
It was one of the Johto animatronics. He had shoulder length red hair and soulless silver eyes. A black jacket with red lining around the bottom, cuffs, and pockets covered his torso and a pair of white pants was on his lower half.
Platinum reacted without thinking. Snatching up the Sird mask that was left there and putting it on she watched as the robotic boy made a face of disgust and wandered back into the darkness of the vent. With a shaky hand the girl slowly pulled off the mask. It seemed to work this time, so she would use it in the future.
A bright red triangular symbol started flashing on her tablet screen, warning the rich girl of something.
Platinum quickly changed the screen to look at the room the triangle was blinking around. She saw the small button to wind up the Salamence plush and quickly pressed it. When it was full she flashed the light in that room and saw none other than one of the Hoenn Dex holders standing up rather than being in its original position.
He was looking straight into the camera with his red eyes. Bits of black hair could be seen coming out from underneath his white hat with a red and black band holding it to his head. Not much of his outfit could be seen at the angle the camera was in but a black and red short sleeved shirt could be made out.
Platinum looked at it wide eyed. She knew her fellow Dex holders were friendly, kind people. So why were these robot versions so creepy?
Ding! Ding!
Platinum looked at her watch. It was already 6 o' clock? That was fast. She stood up and started walking towards the front door. On her way there she noticed all the robots had moved back into their original positions.
"Ah! There you are!" It was Oak. "So how was your first night shift? I hope it wasn't too difficult."
Platinum shook her head. "No. Not at all, sir."
Oak smiled. "That's good. I'll see you back here at midnight then."
Platinum nodded and walked out of the Museum. Now all she needed to do was find this Wally, but not before getting some sleep.
"Lady!" Two voices called out to her.
The dark blue haired girl turned to see two boys running at her. One had blonde hair and bright orange eyes. He wore a white and orange striped T-shirt, jeans, and a bright green scarf. The other was a bit shorter and had black hair that poked out from underneath his red hat. His blue eyes were looking over the girl to make sure she was okay. He wore a black shirt that had white short sleeves, jeans covered his lower half, and a bright red scarf was wrapped around his neck.
"So," The blonde one, Pearl, started, "How'd it go?"
Platinum smiled a little at her friends. "It went well. I will answer any questions you two may have, but, I would like to get some sleep first."
"Kay, Lady." Diamond, the black haired one, answered as the three started their small walk to the Berlitz Mansion.
When the three arrived at the Berlitz mansion they were met by quite a few servants all welcoming Platinum home.
One came up to Platinum and bowed. (I don't know how servants would address the people they work for so I'm taking a guess. Correct me if I'm wrong, which I probably am) "Mistress Platinum," she stood up straight once more and smiled at the heir. "We have set up everything for you in your room."
Platinum nodded at the girl. "Thank you." She turned to Pearl and Diamond. "I would like to get some sleep. You two should be fine on your own here, correct?"
"Don't worry about it." Pearl responded to her question. "I'll make sure Dia doesn't eat everything in the kitchen."
Platinum smiled and watched as Diamond tried to tell Pearl he was wrong about him eating everything in the kitchen. She then quickly headed off to her bedroom, not used to waking up at midnight and staying up till six in the morning was taking its toll on her. Without changing into her pajamas she laid on her bed and closed her eyes, thinking about the events the last six hours held.
Why did the robots want to come after her? Surely they should have recognized a fellow Dex holder, right? A thought then dawned on her. She had never actually met them. They must not have been programmed with knowledge that she, Diamond, or Pearl were also Dex holders. And who was Wally? And how much did he know of the Dex holders to know that that mask would work?
With these thoughts playing around in her head, she fell into a dream filled sleep.
So, I hope you enjoyed the story and reviews are always appreciated.
