Hey,
So this fic is just something experimental, my own interpretation of a popular video game with an original story. A far cry from my style of fanfiction. Proably will write more depending on how much attention this fic gets.

Prologue: The Night Guard
"Marcus S. Thorne, born 12 May 1988. Graduated from college recently and has a diploma in engineering. Previous part time jobs include serving at a fast food restaurant and filing documents in an office. Suffers from Schizophrenia which is being dealt with by counselling and medication".
The man in front of Marcus puts his profile down and crosses his fingers. His name was Oliver Jones, one of the managers of Fazbear's Fright, a horror attraction that was soon to be opened on Halloween night. He had long, unkempt hair and wore a pair of red-tinted glasses. He was also wearing a Pink-Floyd shirt along with khaki shorts, smoking a joint as he conversed with Marcus. The two men sat in a white room. This should be an interview for a job but it feels more like a casual conversation. Marcus crosses his hands, anxious of what Oliver will say.
"Your record seems pretty clean." Oliver says at last, "So tell me Mark, why would you like to work for us?"
"I don't know," shrugs Marcus, "I've got a year before I go into Uni and I've always wanted to try working at these kind of attractions. I can maybe fix some machinery or do some maintenance...".
Marcus didn't want to enforce or say directly that getting a job was also in fact difficult for him due to his aforementioned Schizophrenia.
"I see... Alright, I think I've got the perfect position for you".
"Really?"
"You see, our attraction only opens in about a week and we need someone to make sure the equipment works and that nothing catches on fire. When the place opens, people will come in the office and into the building, and work their way towards you, past you and out the exit. Uh-yeah. You're officially going to be a part of the attraction. Uh-You'll be starring as... The security guard! So not only will you be monitoring the people on the cameras they pass through, y'know, to make sure no one steals anything or makes out in the corner, but you'll also be a part of the show. It'll make it feel really authentic I think".
"What are you rambling on about?" asked Marcus.
"Uh, do you know what our attraction is based on?"
"'Fazbear's Fright?' I don't know much of the details but what I do know is that its a haunted house attraction based on an old, local horror story. What else would it be?" Marcus says rather annoyed.
"You mean you don't know the full-Nevermind," Oliver sits up, goes to a drawer and pulls out something, tossing the item to Marcus. "You start your shift tomorrow".
Marcus sits up, examining the item encased in plastic wrap: It is a blue security guard uniform with a signature yellow badge labelled 'Fazbear's Security'. "You serious? Not to protest but, are you sure I can't be a maintenance guy or something else less boring?"
"Nah dude, we've got everything covered for that part of our attraction and trust me, your role as the security guard is a golden opportunity, the best and most interesting job offer you'll get".
"Fine, how much is my salary?"
"Can't say bro, but you will be paid handsomely".
"I'd better be." Marcus huffs.
"That's great man! I'll meet you outside the attraction at 12am tomorrow. Also, wear the uniform".
"Whatever." replies Marcus shutting the door behind him. Out of the Office Room, Marcus lets out a sigh of relief, knowing that he'd finally been accepted for a job at long last.
