Marina Keller didn't know where to go. She had ran away from her father a few days ago, and now she was wandering the streets trying to find place to spend the night. She had tears running down her face, and they still hadn't stopped coming, it was times like this that she wished her mother was still here. But she died in a car accident, leaving her father, Vincent Keller, an alcoholic out of depression, making him aggressive towards her and her brothers. Her elder brother, Flynn tried to defend her and her twin brother, Gorge, but it proved useless.
Her mother, Violet, was out for a walk with her dad, when they came across two people fighting. Violet was always one for peace and tried to break up the fight. Two complete strangers to her. Then one of them pulled out a pocket knife and stabbed her right in the stomach! The two left, as her mom died in her dad's arms, and he was never the same after that.
He started acting funny, almost as if he kept forgetting who he was and what he did. Sometimes he would keep going into blackouts and just attack like a wild animal! He almost got Flynn hospitalized once.
One night, he barged into her room, a bottle of Vodka in his hand, screaming at her that he never wanted a child in the first place, and started whipping her with one of his belts.
That made her snap. She just couldn't take it anymore! So she grabbed her essentials, some food and water, and her favorite little doll with little red dots on the cheeks and a black body with white stripes on the legs and face, and a music box, the last gifts her mother gave her, went out the window and ran as fast as she could.
But now she was hopelessly lost, she had nowhere to go, no-one to turn to. But then something caught her eye, a giant billboard that had showed Fredbear's Family Diner, her dad's workplace. Fredbear's Diner had opened up, only a few months ago, and it was now a big hit. It had two Animatronics at the moment, Fredbear, a golden bear with a purple hat and bowtie, who was the lead singer and star attraction of the place, and his partner, Spring Bonnie, was a golden rabbit with a black bowtie and a guitar, and played the music that ranged all around the Diner. They're were the only Animatronics so far, but the company informed the public that they were going to add more Animatronics in the coming days. Marina hoped that she'll be able to see them when they come out.
She saw that the Diner was but a few feet away, and made a run for it, music box and doll in hand. Maybe this could be her new home, the workers there were her only friends, and so were the Animatronics, especially Spring Bonnie. She didn't know why, but for some reason, she liked him more then she liked Fredbear.
She just approached the doors, but was sad to see that it was closed, but she tried knocking anyway. No response. She knocked again. Still no response. She considered climbing through the window, when a shadow loomed over her, she turned around and her blood ran cold at the sight of her father, just standing there with a sickening smile on his face.
"Hi sweetie." He started off, his smile starting to creep her out, "Where have you been? I've been looking all over for ya'." Marina was so startled, that she was shaking, unable to respond. She was about to say something when he spoke again, but this time, with a much colder tone. "Speak up!" he nearly shouted, she shrunk back a bit, but responded anyway.
"I was just trying to find a new home." she whispered, but he heard her, he smiled that scary smile again, "Why don't you let me help you?" he asked, Marina looked up at him, confused as to what he meant, "Daddy? What do you mean?" she questioned innocently, "I have the perfect home for you, just remember to say hi to your mother for me, alright?"
She looked at him with wide eyes, "What?" his only answer was to raise a knife above his head! Everything was in a flash and Marina now found herself on the ground, bleeding from her chest, tears coming to her eyes again. She heard footsteps turn away from her, and the sound of a car driving away. But she didn't care, for she only had her eyes on her doll and her music box, that she had dropped in the struggle.
Just before she faded into a deep sleep, she saw her music box began to play on it's own, and she could have sworn that little white irises appeared in the doll's hollow black sockets.
"Where am I?" was the creature's first thought when she woke up, from what she thought was an endless sleep. Music rang clear in the air as the mysterious figure began to get up, with some difficultly, due to her strangely long legs and arms.
"Who am I?" was the figure's second thought, because she realized that she doesn't know her name! She struggled to think about what her name could possibly be, but she had no luck, it was as if half her memory was wiped away.
"What am I?" was her third thought as she finally saw her reflection in the window of the building, she looked like some sort of puppet!
She had a black, long, slender body, with long striped legs, and long arms with fingers that looked like claws now that she thought about. She had a pure white face with red cheeks, an agape mouth, and hollow eyes.
She searched the farthest parts of her mind to come up with a name for herself... Marina, her name was Marina. She remembered now, so her name was Marina, but how did she end up here?
The music suddenly changed from 'Grandfather Clock' to 'Pop Goes the Weasel' and she looked to see it was coming from a small box with a handle on it, stars printed on it. She picked it up and examined it closer, as if looking for something. Suddenly, all the memories came back. Her trying to find a new home, away from her abusive father. Coming here to Fredbear's Family Diner, with her doll and music box. Meeting her father here and a knife, blood, so much blood.
When the memories ended, she just stood there in shock, her claw-like hands clutching her music box tightly. She looked at her self in the window, and saw purple tears where running down her face. Purple, it was his favorite color, he had been wearing it in her final moments as a human, and now she was this, this thing, she now looked so much like her favorite doll, and, somehow, she is now trapped between life and death, unable to get out! Why? Why can't she move on?
Then it came to her. Revenge. She needed to get revenge, if she was to go into the afterlife, if she were to see her mother again. Nodding in determination, she looked back at her reflection, the tears were stuck, dried there, never to be wiped off.
Good. It would mark this day, she wasn't going to wipe them off anyway. She wanted them to be there when she saw him again. Too remind him of his dastardly deed, too remind him how cruel he was to the ones who loved him. But first, she would need some help.
She winded up the music box and 'Pop Goes the Weasel' began to play.
Marina Keller was gone now. Now the Marionette pulls the strings.
I hope I made the Marionette's character as mysterious as I hoped it was, I hope you enjoyed it! Don't forget to review, add to Favs, and I'll see you in the next chapter!
