Prelude: A Tale of two Sisters

Long ago, there was a legend, of a place called Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, a place where fantasy and fun came to life. The animatronics there were legends, tales of greatness began there, and ended there.

After years of performance, a new Era was ready to be born, a new generation of performance bots… the Funtime Era.

There were new bots, Circus Baby, Ballora the Dancer, Funtime Freddy and even Funtime Foxy. They were rental bots though. But one day, the business's owner's Daughter was having her birthday, when the bite happened. The place was torn down as the animatronics were sent underground. But a few years later, new bots came, replicas of the old ones, but safer. A war started, all because of the two Circus Baby's fighting…

"Circus Baby! You have no place here!" Baby yelled to her original counterpart. Circus Baby looked to her replacement before cackling as she threw the younger animatronic to the ground. "Nobody likes you, Baby! You're just a cheap replacement, how long has it been since you were made? Oh, a year? And in that year, how many times have you performed for children? Oh wait, you have performed zero times! See Baby, I have been functioning for three years, and I have performed 100 times more than you have in my first year! Nobody would want to rent you and your pathetic friends!" Circus Baby said, kicking Baby's head into the stone floor, a crack echoing in the sound of metal on metal

"A-a-at least I w-w-wouldn't… k-k-kill… my c-creator's… daughter…" Baby chocked out before Circus Baby slammed her faceplates back onto the ground.

"Don't you mention that!" Circus baby hissed before a new voice echoed near her. "Oh, did you hit a nerve Baby? I'll take it from here…" Ballora said as her purple eyes clicked open, sparking in anger. "Where is Balloria?! Circus Baby said, but Ballora stepped aside to reveal the scraps of her original counterpart. "NO!" Circus Baby screamed, her blue eyes filling with tears of fury and grief as she let out a primal scream.

"Baby, go help Foxetta with Foxy!" Ballora said, but Baby shook her head. "You help her, this is my battle." She said as Circus Baby lunged for her, but Ballora intervened. "No, you've fought long enough, your suit is ruined and your bottom left faceplate won't shut." She said as Baby realized she was trying to shut her faceplate that was hanging limply on her jaw, she smiled and grabbed the object before tearing it off and throwing it at Circus Baby. The animatronic growled, her blue gaze clicking from Baby to Ballora.

She then smiled before she held out an object, a remote. "What is that-" Ballora said, but Baby's fearful wide-eyed gaze told her all she needed to know. "Ennard will win, thank you for scrapping Balloria for me, but you will have to die soon, now please stand still, and it will be over soon." Circus Baby said, shoving Baby into the scooping room, Baby stumbled to her feet as the door shut in front of her, the last thing she saw was Ballora banging on the glass in front of her as Circus Baby pressed the button that Baby knew, would send the scooper to end her life.

But nothing came.

Circus baby could be heard swearing as Ballora kicked the door down. Baby opened her eyes to see her friend staring at her. "Baby, it malfunctioned, we can end this, together…" Ballora said as Circus Baby walked in and cracked her knuckles, the sound of metal hitting metal echoing in the room as she wound up her arm "ah well, if you want something done right, you just do it yourself!" she said and punched the machine, where Baby was a second ago. In a flash, a creak echoed in the room as lights flashed.

"Ballora! Go!" Baby screamed as she pinned Circus Baby against the wall, right in front of the scooper. "Im not leaving you!" Ballora said, but Baby shoved her out of the room, the red light illuminating her faceplates. "Take care of them Ballora. I have faith in you…" Baby said as the machine activated and Ballora watched the one fluid movement steal her best friend's life…

A/N

Yes! I finally got this out, this happens before Bon and Bonna were introduced into the Funtime gang. Now you can see why Circus Baby holds a grudge, sure it might not add up to you, but I hopefully will get it to make sense later on. While I am working on other projects, little teasers will appear on my page, they will all be cannon and are all important, so please pay attention for them.
