A/N: I've been in a FNAF mood lately so...why the hell not? Writer's block isn't letting up, so I'm hoping writing and publishing this will get my drive back.

This "prologue" is based off of a Creepypasta I heard a little while ago. Enjoy!

Last Call

"...Hello? Ah,it's recording...*ahem*...If you're listening to this, then chances are that you have made a very poor career choice. Then again, I'm not any different since I was once in your position. Anyway, by the time this recording gets to you, I will no longer be around anymore - I'd have either moved out of town or having my body disposed of by the work staff, if it hasn't been disposed of already. The reason I say that is because...oh boy...where to begin...? I-I guess I'll start from the beginning.

"I'm not going to waste my or your time explaining who I am, where I came from...none of that shit matters right now. The only thing I'm concerned with is 1) making sure this message gets across to someone before it's too late and 2) to hopefully better your chances of survival in this hellhole. I'll be honest...I had no idea what to expect when I walked into this place. I thought I could just make an easy $120 a week by just sitting on my ass everyday! Then again, I'm pretty sure that's what everyone thought when they first took this job. There's a reason why they don't tell you everything when you first sign up - they don't want this to get out to the public. It would ruin everything they have worked so hard to build and cover up for the last twenty-something years. I don't even think my message will get to you in time, but I pray it does...

"Right, let's get back on track here: you've undoubtedly took the job opening for a security guard to work the night shift at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, right? 'Course you did - you wouldn't be listening to this message if you didn't. As you may already know, your job's simple: check the cameras and make sure that no one breaks in and damages or steal the equipment, money, or animatronic characters. Simple, right? Yeah...that's what I thought on my first day too...By the time you've gotten yourself settled down in that chair and preparing for an easy night, you'll begin to realize that this pizzeria isn't what it appears to be within the first hour.

"I'll just tell you now - those animatronics move around freely all throughout the night. It wouldn't be so bad if the fuckers didn't try to get into your office and drag you off to your untimely and painful demise. If you're not a complete idiot, I can almost guarantee that you'll make it through the first night, but you're also guaranteed to get a visit from the rabbit before the night's over. Actually, they're all pretty tame on the first night but...they get more aggressive as the week progresses. And, for your own sake, don't piss them off in any shape or form - you'll only escalate their bloodlust and they'll do anything to get their hands on you. And I do mean anything...

"I think I'm getting ahead of myself here...I'm pretty sure that little tibit of information was a bit to take in, but it's nothing but the truth. The same animatronics that entertain kids during the day are out for your blood once those doors close for the night and for the life of me, I could never understand why. I bet one of the higher ups told you that they let those things roam around at night to prevent their servers from locking up, and that they won't recognize you as a human, but a metal endoskeleton without its costume on. And since it's 'against the rules' for an endo to be out of its costume, they'll try to forcefully stuff you into one of the suits in the back.

"That is all complete bullshit.

"Those robots know damn well that you are human being and not and endoskeleton, but that's the lie they feed you to make sure you don't run off. The animatronics are just bored, and you're just the scapegoat to keep them entertained until the next guard comes in if you end up actually finishing that week and quitting, or if they caught you and did who knows what to your body. The moment you step into this office, your forced to play their little sick twisted game of survival where the loser dies a horrible death, and then it's game over. And God forbid if you disappoint them - if they sense that you're not taking this seriously, you're going to have a helluva harder time trying to survive the week. And the worst part about it is that you can't leave until otherwise...As I've said before, the higher ups don't want this getting out to the public and ruin the restaurant's reputation, but it's really just a ploy to keep those things within these walls for as long as possible. They tried scrapping them, dismantling them, deactivating them...nothing works - they always find a way to come back and wreck havoc wherever they may be. There's...really no real way to get rid of them.

"...Today is my last day. I've had a few close calls but-"

BANG! BANG! BANG!

"Jerry~! Open the door~! We're getting booooooored~!"

"Shit! C'mon...only 15 more minutes-!"

"Who's that on the phone? You're supposed to be ALONE!"

"You're not playing fair, Jerry~ I suppose we'll just have to break in there~!"

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

"Aye! Open th' door ye scallywag! Me hook's in a dyin' need of rippin' th' flesh from yer bones!"

"Your power's draining fast...it won't be long now.~"

"L-look, I gotta go, and fast! To whoever's listening this I...I'm so, so sorry for putting you through this. I thought I could hold up until the end of my shift but...they just kept coming and coming, dr-draining all of my power-"

BANG! BANG! CRASH!

"SCHREEEEEEEEEE-!"

E/N: Not entirely sure where I intend to go with this one...I think this will be a short one, but hey, I'll see as we go. Also, this story takes place after FNAF and FNAF 2, following the fact that FNAF 2 is a prequel to the first game. So, the pizzeria here is another restaurant that opened after the last one closed. This story also follows a headcanon of mine that's horror based.

I'm working on a FNAF AU if anyone's interested, but I won't publish that until way later.

Happy New Year everyone!
