''=Thoughts, ""=Speech
'Oh shit.' was my only thought as I sprinted through the hallways of my house, trying to outpace the thing that was chasing me. Actually, I should start from the beginning. My name is Aidan Curry, and this is my story.
I was an average man, almost twenty two years old and I was still in college. I had always been good with computers and robotics, and as a result, was taking courses in those subjects. One of my favorite things to do in my spare time was to play video games, specifically, Five Nights At Freddy's. I had always been fascinated by the animatronics and had thought about what they would be like in real life. Little did I know that I would get the answer to my question soon enough….
Time Skip: 1:00 A.M.
I walked over to my computer quickly and quietly, pulling it out of sleep mode as a sat down in my office chair, and proceeded to open up Five Nights at Freddy's 2. I had always had trouble with 10/20 mode in that game and I was determined to beat it. Suddenly, the power goes out when I was at 5:00 A.M. and was about to win. I groaned in annoyance as I spun my office chair around and started to stand up. A blinding, and I mean literally blinding, flash appears and, as per natural human instincts, I shut my eyes and after the flash dissipated, I opened them. What I saw was shocking. I saw every real animatronic from the Five Nights at Freddy's series. I looked at the time and paled. It was 3:00 A.M.
'I am SO screwed.' I thought as I heard the tell tale sign of fans activating from within the pile of animatronics. When Toy Chica lifted her head and her eyes turned pitch black, I sprinted from the room so fast, my high school gym teacher would be proud. I checked my watch and it was still a long time until it was 6:00 A.M. At least, I hoped they would turn off at 6:00. I ran right into a closet and shut the door. Many people thought of me as a nerd, I prefered to think of myself as a very smart person.
'Where is it! I know it's he- aha!' I thought as I pressed the button that activated a bunch of alarms and lights. The button was meant to disorientate any would-be robbers, but I hoped that it would work just as well against the animatronics.
I slowly opened the closet door and proceeded to walk directly into a wall of fur. My skin was as pale as a vampire's as the 'wall of fur' turned around, straightened its top hat, and lunged. I had bolted looooong before Freddy had the chance to lunge at me, but I still heard his padded feet hitting off the floor, shaking everything.
'Oh shit.' was my only thought as I sprinted through the hallways of my house, trying to outpace Freddy who was chasing me. I grabbed the corner of a doorway and used to throw myself into my living room. As I ran, I checked my watch, 4:34 A.M. No way I could keep running and keep away from the bear. I had to get back to my room and hide. Hopefully all of the other animatronics had left or were inactive. I ducked behind the couch of my living room and held my breath. I heard Freddy's feet pound on the carpet as he slowly walked around. I heard another pair of padded feet run in. I could see giant, purple, ears from above the couch.
"Freddy, why are you running? Did you find something?!" The animatronic that could only be Bonnie asked excitedly.
"I did find something, an endo, but it ran in here and I can't find it." was the response.
I nearly gasped at the fact that the animatronics were talking to each other. I checked my watch, 5:35. Only twenty five minutes to go. I carefully and almost silently slid myself under the couch. I heard a bunch of metal clanging as the only animatronic that ran and had exposed feet sprinted in.
"Wha' be all tha' racket Freddy? Wha' be goin' on?" Foxy asked.
"Oh, we, well, Freddy says he saw an endoskeleton without a costume so now we need to go and find it and put it back, hopefully before management finds it." Bonnie replied.
I checked my watch 5:55.
"Bonnie, as much as I would like to agree with you, it is nearly six and management would definitely throw a fit we aren't in our positions at six." Freddy stated calmly. "We'll have to hope that they won't find the endo before tomorrow."
The responses were grumbled affirmatives. Finally, it turned to six. I crawled out from under my couch, for the first time in years, terrified for my life.
I ran a hand through my hair and sighed. I walked up to my room, nearly tripping over Balloon Boy as I marched over to my bed, set my alarm clock, and fell into the bed, unaware of the one animatronic that didn't shut down at six's stare.
AN: I hope you guys enjoyed the first chapter of WATHOAP. I know that it's kind of long and all, but I think that it is an appropriate length. Now then, as for reviews, I would prefer constructive reviews that actually help me improve my writing as opposed to reviews that are just flames. I will answer any questions in the next chapter in this section of the AN. Also, the next chapter will most likely come out on or around July 5th or 6th. Goodbye guys and remember to smile, you're the face of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.
