Let's try to make it right. Don't wanna start a fight. And we're so sorry if we give you all a little fright. We're not so scary if you see us in the daylight. You'll be so happy just as long as you survive the night.

Mike walked into the pizzeria through the employee's entrance in the back. Wearing his grey nightguard security outfit and cap, he took a seat in the control room. In the room there was a huge corridor in front of him and three walls: One behind him, one to his left and the other to his right. Directly in front of him were controls to the security footage and cameras as well as a phone. He heard the phone ring, listening to the audio recording left to him on a voicemail when it cut off. Standing right in front of him was two animatronics: The brown bear known as Freddy and the blue rabbit known as Bonnie. In the day, they looked like friendly mascots for a childrens' pizza place. In the night, however, they looked terrifying, And they only looked more so in the dark.

"Hey there! How ya doin'? Nice to meet ya! Are you new in town? Don't think I've seen you before! It's great to see some new faces around and, if you'd like it, I can give a tour! Of our enchanting wonderland new and improved without the doors!"

Mike began to stand up when he was pulled to his feet by Freddy, who was holding onto the back of his collar. He tried to pull away, but the metal hand was too strong.

"There's no escape, but then who would want to leave? It's a fantastical paradise and it's not make believe! I'm so glad to have another member of the band! You're one of us now, so let me take you by the hand!"

Freddy let go of him as Bonnie took his hand and turned around to examine him, holding a guitar that he was about to give to Mike, until Bonnie noticed something.

"But what is that I spy with my robotic eye?"

Mike began to sweat.

"I think I see a bit of flesh inside the new guy. Maybe he isn't everything that he seems. Time to investigate what's underneath the seams."

Finally breaking free, the young man ran across the room, reaching a door that read 'Storage' and ran inside, locking himself in. When he heard a voice behind him. Turning, Mike noticed a puppet. A marrionete. It started to sing as well.

"Let's try to make it right. Don't wanna start a fight. And we're so sorry if we give you all a little fright. We're not so scary if you see us in the daylight. You'll be so happy just as long as you survive the night. If you survive the night...

Oh, oh, take you away. To our enchanted land of play."

He unlocked the door, running out and running into something metal. Looking up, he saw The Mangle, a white and pink version of the animatronic Foxy, who seems to be suspiciously absent from the restaurant tonight. Come to think of it, he hadn't seen Chica, either. He wondered where they were, but didn't have the time to think about it as the messed up animatronic started singing with the bunny, causing him to run to the next door that was closest to him in fear: The kitchen door. Locked.

"Forgive me for being suspicious. Mischief's not on my brain. We're programmed to be pragmatic if someone messes with the mainframe. It's not that we don't trust you! We do! We love you, too. It's just that here at Freddy's..."

Bonnie laughed.

"...we have a few rules."

Freddy pounced on him from out of seemingly nowhere, making Mike hit his back against the steel kitchen doors. A wave of pain went up his spine and he was sure he could feel some blood on his back.

"And if you break them we will have to break you like you broke our hearts! We'll be forced to rewire you and repair your damaged parts!"

The singing from the bear was loud and angry, as if something seeking vengeance was coming from the words. Bonnie pulled Freddy off of the night watch with a foul look, and then giving the human a symapthetic look.

"Now, you wouldn't want that and, frankly, neither would I. But sometimes to do some good you've gotta be the bad guy!"

He was certain this was a nightmare and he'd have to get out of here. But he couldn't find an exit.

Now they all started singing in harmony: Bonnie, Freddy, Mangle and the Puppet, all at once. It sounded like a choir of haunted voices going through his head, like tortured souls.

"In this world we play, we hope that you will stay. And we will throw a most electrifying soirée! Formal attire is required for you to take part! You've got some skin that needs removing before we start!"

The singing quieted down and he looked at the clock. It was five fifty-nine in the morning. Just a few more seconds and he's free.

"Let's try to make it right. Don't wanna start a fight."

They gathered closely towards him, keeping his back to the wall.

"And we're so sorry if we give you all a little fright. We're not so scary when you see us in the daylight. You'll be so happy just as long as you survive the night."

The clock ticked sixty. It's six in the morning now. He heard a sound that seemed similar to that of a machine powering down. He looked back to the animatronics and noticed they all went to still, inactive. He knocked Bonnie over and took this as a chance to go free, running and clocking out so he won't be any legal trouble, because that's the last thing he wants after this. Once that was done, he ran out the employee exit, right next to the entrance and went home. But as he left, he could swear he could hear a child's voice in his head that sounded suspiciously like Bonnie's.

"I'm sure you'll survive. Just don't break the rules and play nice. Then I'm sure we'll all get along. We'll be the best of friends. Forever."
