[A/N - Hey there 8D Another addition to my series, this time telling the tale of Spring Bonnie and Fredbear. Keep in mind, I gave the name "Ralfbunny" to Spring Bonnie as that being his name from back when he was at Fredbear's Family Diner, since Golden Freddy's name used to be Fredbear I figured Spring Bonnie deserved to have an original name too. Also, those who have read the other arcs in the series, namely "Hello, Hello", I changed their colors to having been golden all along.

This arc begins in 1966, when Fredbear's Family Diner opens. 83]

In the beginning, there was nothing but darkness.

He felt like he couldn't move, and vaguely wondered where he was.

'Uh… I… I hear something… What is it? Are those voices?'

"Is it ready, my dear?" one of the voices said. It sounded like it belonged to someone old. "I think I saw Ralfbunny twitch a tad."

'Ralfbunny…? Hey, that's me! That's my name!'

"It's almost done, grandpa," the other voice replied, sounding like a young female. "And – there!"

His eyes snapped open. He was so startled by his involuntary movement that he took a step back and yelped. Suddenly, he was seeing all kinds of colors and unknown things around him. Each time he looked at an object, he wondered what it was for a second or two, before a word appeared in his mind, letting him know what that object was called.

"Whoa!" he fawned. "Where am I? What is…?" He looked at his hands. He was golden in color. Touching his neck revealed a bowtie, though he could not see what color it was.

"I must say, my dear, this is quite impressive. His movements are just like that of a human," the old-sounding voice praised.

Ralfbunny looked in front, at the two people that stood on stage with him. They were both smiling, as if there was nothing more pleasant than to watch him discover the world around him. One was a senior, kind-looking, while the other was a teenage girl with brown hair tied in a ponytail. Her grin was the brightest.

"Um, hello?" Ralfbunny greeted. "W… who are you?"

"I'm Alice," the girl said. "Alice McNair. I built you."

The animatronic bunny blinked and looked at his hands again. In between his golden fur, he could see metallic bits underneath. His mind gave him the word "endoskeleton" to describe them.

The girl then gestured towards the senior. "This is my grandpa, Antoine. Do you know your name?" Alice wanted to know.

"Ralfbunny, right?" the robot hesitated. Alice nodded, so he assumed he got it right. "Phew… So, um… what am I?"

"An animatronic," Alice explained. "You were made to entertain children. This is my grandpa's diner, and you and Fredbear are the main attraction."

"Fredbear?" Ralfbunny repeated, confused. "Who's Fredbear?"

"I am."

Ralfbunny looked over to his left, to find a very grumpy-looking golden bear with a purple top-hat and bowtie. He leered at the bunny and grunted.

"Oh, hey!" Ralfbunny waved excitedly. "I didn't notice you there! So we're partners uh? That's awesome!"

"Humpf. 'Awesome' he says," Fredbear growled. "We're gonna have to put up with whining brats and bored parents every day, kid. It's gonna be a drag, it's what it is."

The bunny's ears dropped slightly, but he perked up almost immediately. "Nah, I'm sure it will be fun! The kids are gonna love us! Right?" he asked, turning to Alice and her grandfather.

"Sure!" said Alice. "They better, anyway – I designed you guys, so if they don't like you then we're gonna have a problem," she stated jokingly.

Antoine chuckled. "Now, now, don't say things like that. I still think that the colors you chose for them are not very appealing…"

"They're my favorite colors, what's wrong with that?"

The two humans looked at the animatronics when they heard the sound of a slap.

Ralfbunny was pouting at Fredbear, rubbing his hand, as the bear was dusting his hat and hiding it away from the bunny's stare. It seemed like Ralfbunny had tried to take Fredbear's hat to try it on, and the grumpy bear had slapped the excitable bunny's hand away.

"Can I try on your hat?" the bunny requested, his pout morphing into a hopeful grin.

"No," the bear grunted shortly, placing the hat back on his head.

"C'mon, just for a minute! I wanna see how it looks on me!"

"No."

"C'mon, Fredbear, I won't ruin it! Pleeeeeeeeeeeease?"

"NO."

"Pretty please? I'll give you a hug!"

"Ralfbunny, I swear to God…"

"Why on earth did you give them such opposite personalities, my dear?" sighed Antoine McNair.

Alice shrugged, snickering. "I didn't choose their personalities, grandpa. The program I created makes their personalities randomly – I have no say in what kind of personality they'll have, other than their main priority will be to keep children safe and happy," she explained. "I thought that way they'd at least have the chance to develop their personalities as they please. As if they were human, you know? Don't worry; I'm sure the children will love them."

"Ralfbunny, over here!"

"No, come play with us!"

"Hey, I called him first!"

The animatronic bunny grinned and raised his hands to try and calm down the crowd. "Please don't argue, kids. How about we all play together?"

The group of children that had swarmed around Ralfbunny cheered. One of the youngest put up his arms, standing on his toes. The bunny recognized it as a request to be picked up by him, and he complied – he took the small boy in his hands and put him on his shoulders, holding his legs so he wouldn't fall off.

"Whoa! You're so tall!" the boy commented, trying to reach the ceiling.

"Now you're the tallest," Ralfbunny chuckled. "Fredbear, come join us!"

The golden bear was leaning on a wall, his arms crossed, watching the scene with a slightly apprehensive stare. When Ralfbunny called for him he sniffed.

"Maybe you should put the child down, Ralfbunny. You might drop him," he suggested.

Ralfbunny pouted. "I wouldn't drop him! I'm very careful!"

Fredbear scoffed. "Psh, yeah right. Kids, when was the last time Ralfbunny messed up something?"

"Ten minutes ago," replied a little girl, to which all the children snickered.

Much to the bunny's shame, he could not argue against the fact that he was a huge klutz. It had been like that ever since the very first show they had.

On the early days of the diner (called "Fredbear's Family Diner", as they were told), the people that visited were mostly just curious about the robots. They didn't ask for food, and simply walked in to talk to the two animatronics and see if they could actually talk back and conduct a normal conversation. Ralfbunny didn't mind – the more people the merrier! Fredbear, on the other hand, thought it was a waste of time for people to walk in if they weren't intending on eating anything.

As time went by, more and more children started visiting the diner along with their families, until the place got to a point where it was bucked every day, and families only managed to get the place reserved for a party if they made the reservation at least three months in advance. They had been open for three years now; three years of success and happiness.

The children that visited the place regularly were already used to how the robots acted. They knew that Fredbear was the serious, usually grumpy one, who didn't partake in their games and simply observed, while Ralfbunny was the happy-go-lucky one with whom they could always count on for a fun game and a hug. He was also the one who usually made the children laugh, as he was very accident-prone and it was rare when a day went by without him tripping or breaking something by accident.

That day, it had only been ten minutes since he offered to carry the dirty plates to the kitchen and ended up tripping, dropping the plates in the process.

"That was an accident," Ralfbunny defended himself. "I was just trying to help…"

"You always are, Ralf," Fredbear said. "You always are…"

The bunny put the little boy gently on the ground. "See? Nothing bad happened? Everything went just – GYAAAH!"

The children watched, some startled, some amused, as the golden bunny slipped on a plastic plate that had been left forgotten on the floor and fell on his back with a loud thud. The plastic plate flew in the air and then landed perfectly on Fredbear's top hat.

The bear sighed with an unimpressed scowl, shaking his head, as the children laughed loudly. Ralfbunny got up slowly, smiling sheepishly as he dusted his suit, and then opening his arms to show he was fine. The crowd cheered, but some of the children requested for the bunny to fall again.

"Humpf," grunted Fredbear. "Kids…"

He knew very well that there were times where the bunny didn't like how others were always making fun of him. He would never say it to the staff, or the children of course, but Ralfbunny felt like the only thing he was good at was being the "clown" of the diner. The diner was named after Fredbear – just Fredbear – and so the bunny was pretty much a secondary character whose only job was to do silly things and make children laugh at him. Fredbear himself would often tease the bunny, but deep down, he cared for Ralf. He would never say it loud though. It didn't amuse him in the slightest to see him almost falling, tripping and looking stupid just to keep the kids entertained.

He had to pretend like he did though. That's what the children wanted…

"What's the matter, Fred?"

The bear looked form the corner of his eyes to his right, spotting Alice McNair leaning on the wall next to him.

"… Ralfbunny is keeping the masses entertained by playing dumb. Again," Fredbear grunted.

Alice sighed. "I know you don't like it, Fred… And I know Ralf doesn't like it sometimes either, but… What can we do?" She shrugged. "The kids think it's funny."

"Children can be rather cruel," the bear declared. "Remember how they treated young Peter Hampton two days ago?"

Alice frowned. "Yeah… That went pretty bad. I can't believe they would go so far as hurting that puppy," she confessed. "Like you said, kids can be cruel…"

"So, why are you here today?" Fredbear wanted to know, turning his eyes away from the children at the diner, who were once again laughing at Ralfbunny, who had tried to do a juggling trick with plastic cups and failed, having them all fall on his head one by one. "You're usually at mechanic school at this hour."

"I got some time out," Alice said, yawning. "Besides, I'm already way ahead of everyone else. I built you guys on my own after all."

Fredbear looked at the young mechanic prodigy with a raised eyebrow. "Getting a little cocky are we?"

"Nah, I'm the embodiment of humility, you know me," she retorted jokingly. "Plus, there is someone I want to see…"

"And who might that be?"

Alice looked out the window of the diner expectantly. "He should be walking by any minute now…"

Within a couple of seconds, a group of young men walked by the diner. One of them wore a military outfit, while the others had normal clothes, and all seemed quite excited as they talked to the young soldier. The soldier had hazelnut-hair and green eyes, and his smile was kind and trustworthy.

"There he is," Alice sighed. "He's so dreamy… I wish he would visit his family more often so I could see him…"

Fredbear rolled his eyes. "God… Swooning over someone she does not even know… What would your father say…?"

"My father would say nothing, as my father does not need to know," Alice retorted, narrowing her eyes at Fredbear. "Mr. Leonard McNair is perfectly fine being blissfully ignorant, thank you very much. But look at him, Fredbear!" She sighed again dreamily, as she watched the young soldier disappear with his friends. "Isn't he perfect…?"

"How should I know? I'm a robot," Fredbear retorted. "As far as I know, I cannot feel attraction towards humans."

"This isn't attraction, this is true love," Alice declared, receiving another eye-roll from Fredbear.

"Goodness gracious if I could barf I would…"

Alice laughed. "Oh don't be like that Freddy." She held his arm, nudging him playfully. "Maybe my programming will allow you to feel love one day, and then you'll know how I feel."

"Unlikely."

"But you can mark my words, Fred. One day, that Phil Grayson will be all mine," she said.

"Oh so you do know his name. Progress has been made," Fredbear commented, not even bothering to change his bored tone of voice to feign interest in the matter.

Alice elbowed him, which naturally didn't do much as the bear could not feel pain. He simply looked at her with his eyebrows arched, watching her as she skipped over to Ralfbunny with her arms open.

"Dance with me, Ralfie!" she demanded. "I'm in love!"

Fredbear could only shake his head, face-palming as the supposedly mature young woman danced with the robotic bunny, much to the amusement of the children that surrounded them.

He was surrounded by morons…
