Author's Note: I'm back with a new fanfic. You guys are wondering why I'm starting a new fanfic when have two others I need to finish. I have two reasons for this. The first reason is that I had this idea in my head for a while, and I wanted to get it out. The second reason is that a good friend on Deviantart encouraged me to write it. So here we are on the first chapter. Before we get started, let me talk a bit more about this fanfic. This story takes place before, during, and slightly after Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location. It mainly revolves around Funtime Freddy, Circus Baby, and Bon-Bon as they struggle between their roles as children entertainers and murderers. Also, there will a tiny bit of shipping in later chapters, but the story's main focus is on friendship and tragedy between the animatronics. Now with that out of the way, please stay in your seats and enjoy the show!

Freddy's Funtime Circus

Chapter 1 - Fazbear's Legacy

Darkness completely engulfed my vision. My body stood still like a statue. I felt something in my left hand. Electrical pulses ran in my circuits and wires at a sluggishly slow pace. The joints and gears were frozen in position. Where was I, and why am I here? What am I? Who am I? All of these questions filled my head as something touched my stomach. I felt myself getting lighter in that area. The thing touched a part of me, and the weight of my stomach returned to me. The electrical pulses dashed at lightening speeds. The joints and gears in my body turned. My fingers and ears moved. My face shifted around a bit. My eyes opened up and blue lights flickered on. At least I think they're blue. Light, color, and various objects covered my vision. My eyes stared at a small room with white walls and purple trims. Endoskeletons and suits resembling bears were scattered across the room. I took a quick at my left hand and noticed a purple microphone in my white hand. I looked back up and noticed tall man wearing purple right in front of me. In one hand, he held a purple woodbox with silver tools inside. In the other hand, he held a white cloth. He wiped his face with it and stared up at me with grey eyes.

"Welcome into the world, Freddy!" He said in a energetic voice.

Freddy? Was that my name? If he called me that, I guess it is. He had a smile on his face as he kept looking at me. He placed the cloth away and touched my purple shoulders. My face had a big smile on. Actually, I think the smile was a permanent part of my face.

"How do you feel, Freddy?" the man asked.

"I feel confused. I know we are in a place called a lab, but why am I here? Who are you, and what exactly am I? I asked back. My voice was loud and cheerful.

The man released his hands my shoulders and let out a chuckle. My face shifted again and one of my eyebrows moved. He turned around and looked at me.

"I am your creator, William Afton. I'll tell you all the answers you want if you follow me," he commanded.

Not knowing what else to do, I followed his order. I glanced that those empty, lifeless bear heads before we walked out of the room. We were in something called a hallway. Our footsteps echoed in the soundless hall. The clanking of my feet were especially loud. We stopped when we stood in front of a large door. He unlocked it and opened it. We walked inside the room. It was larger than the one we were previous in. One the walls were posters of robotic animals. One of them depicted a golden bear and a golden rabbit. They both wore purple bow ties, but the bear had black buttons on its chest while the rabbit had purple buttons on its chest. The bear held a black and purple microphone in one hand while the rabbit held a purple and white bass guitar. In the bear's other hand was a purple top hat. The teal eyes of the bear and the green eyes of the rabbit left a good impression on me.

"Who are they?" I asked as I pointed to them.

"The golden bear you see is named Fredbear. He's one of your predecessors, the oldest one in fact. Next to him is Spring Bonnie. He's Fredbear's co-star and right-hand man. Those two are the first animatronics we came with," William replied.

I was in awe as he kept talking about them. Fredbear and Spring Bonnie sounded so cool! Yet something confused me about his last sentence.

"We?"

"My friend and I helped a company out by creating them."

"Oh! What's the thing underneath them?" I pointed to the words saying "Fredbear's Family Diner".

"That's the name of the restaurant they were a part of."

"OH!" I realized with childish enthusiasm.

I kept staring at the poster of the two. Their suits were shiny and made of fabric. Their eyes were very lively. They seemed to be singing and rocking out to a song. Looking at the picture made me filled with joy and excitement. I wanted to be just like them, especially Fredbear!

"On your other side, there should be a poster of Freddy Fazbear and Bonnie from Freddy Fazbear's Pizza," William stated.

I turned my head around, only to see another poster. This one was different from the last poster. A brown and tan bear was on the left side. He wore a black top hat and a black bow tie. Black buttons were on his tan chest. He held a black microphone in his right hand. Next to Freddy Fazbear was an indigo rabbit. He wore a red bow tie and black buttons on his chest like Freddy Fazbear. He held a red and white bass guitar in his hands. Freddy Fazbear's blue eyes and Bonnie's magenta eyes stared at my own. After some time passed, I realized something.

"Why do the brown bear and I share the same name?"

"You see, you're this bear's successor at a different location. If I wanted to be more technical, your name would be Funtime Freddy."

"Funtime Freddy?"

"Correct. You're the "Funtime" model of Freddy Fazbear for the new restaurant called Freddy's Funtime Circus."

"I get it now!" I cheered.

"Good boy, Freddy. I can already see you bringing smiles to children and adults alike." His words created a warm, fuzzy inside of me.

I noticed that there was a plush versions of the animatronics I saw and a mirror in front of me. I looked my reflection, finally getting a good look at my own design. My body was white with purple accents all over. My chest had a speaker on it while my stomach had black buttons on it. Like Freddy Fazbear, I wore a black bow tie and a black top hat. The only difference between our accessories was that my hat had a purple stripe across it. There were black lines in my face and made a cleft chin. My face shifted and opened up, revealing my endoskeleton. I wanted to scream at my own appearance, but something in my head told me not to. They quickly closed, returning my face to normal.

Before I could ask about it, William said, "You're not the only animatronic I created for this new pizzeria. Let me show you your new pal."

We walked out of the room. Our footstep echoed in the hallway again. We passes the room I first woke up in. We passed a few other rooms too, but I had no idea of their purpose, not that I cared at all. We stopped in front of a blue door. William swung it open, revealing a room similar to mine. The walls were paint a bright blue. The endoskeletons and suits were more organized and smaller. There was table at the far end of the middle. A small, blue rabbit sat on the table. It wore a red bow tie and a singular black button on its chest. He held drum sticks in its paws. We walked closer to the rabbit and stopped when we were close to it. William pressed the black button. After he press it, the rabbit's opened its eyes as magenta lights turned on. It waved at me. I bent down to get a closer look at it.

"Hi there! I'm the Funtime Freddy, but you can just call me Freddy!" I almost screamed. I ended my sentence with laughing.

"I'm Funtime Bonnie, but you can call me Bon-Bon," it greeted in a child's voice.

"Just as he said, this animatronic here is named Funtime Bonnie, or Bon-Bon for short. He'll be your partner for now on. Now it's time for your bedtime, Freddy. Let's go back to your room," William stated.

"Okay," I said in disappointment.

I felt like I missing out on a lot, but I followed his command. We left the room, not before I glanced at Bon-Bon. He closed the door, and we walked off. Even though I only been in this hall for a day, I felt like I've been here forever. I became lost in my thoughts as I followed William. The thoughts drowned out the sounds and turned off my focus. I didn't realize I headed towards the door of my room until I slammed into it. I pushed myself away and rubbed my head. It didn't hurt, but my human-like instinct got the best of me. I opened the door and sat down on the floor.

William said, "Goodnight, Freddy. You have a very big day tomorrow," before turning off the lights.

A few hours passed. My eyes were still wide open. I glanced at the walls. The bear heads on the selves glared at me with cold, empty sockets. I looked at the purple floor. My fingers fiddled with the microphone in my left hand. My right hand touched the invisible air. The rest of my body remained lifeless. The only sound in the room was my static breathing. Suddenly, the door creaked open. I saw a small shadow. It peeked out its head to see me. I realized who it was.

"Bon-Bon, what are you doing here?" I asked.

"I had a nightmare about a big, scary monster trying eat me. I was wondering if I can sleep with you tonight," Bon-Bon said.

I thought about it for a moment and answered, "Sure you can! I'll make sure no big, bad, nasty monster tries to eat you. I just hope William doesn't get mad."

Bon-Bon's fluffy tail wagged as his face glowed. He ran up to me with quiet footsteps. He climbed onto my shoulder and snuggled close to me. He quickly fell asleep with very quiet snores. He petted his head. I wonder if I was going to have more friends like him. I guess it doesn't matter now. The big day was tomorrow, and I needed my rest. I soon shut myself down for the night, waiting for the morning to come.

Author's Notes: That was the first chapter for this fanfic. I enjoyed writing it a lot, and I hope my friend who encouraged me to write it likes it. It's been a while since I wrote a story in a first person point of view. I hope I'm not too rusty. Though my main focuses are on Synthetic Hearts and RockRemix, I'll try to upload new chapters when I get the chance. I will admit that it was rather hard for me to write such a short chapter, but I think it will make it easier for people to read it. The last thing I want to say is that some of designs are different. The main reason for this is because I wanted the Funtime/Circus model animatronics to look like they came from the Fredbear/Pre-Withered animatronic era. Anyway, I hoped you guys enjoyed this chapter and plan to stick around for more!
