Welcome to my FNAF2 fanfic story
Now this is going to stray from the plot of the game itself a bit here. This story is going to play out like this was after Five nights at Freddy's 1, with the company moving to a larger building and buying more animatronics. The marionette will not make an appearance in this story, or Golden Freddy for that matter. Also in this iteration, Foxy "The Mangle" will be female since the true gender is still considered "contested".
Hope you all enjoy the first chapter :]
Chapter 1
Mangle sat in Kids Cove motionless, listening to the birthday party in one of the party rooms as Bonnie and Chica 2.0 started singing happy birthday. It'd been a horrible day for the soiled animatronic: while she was usually left to her own demise, a group of older children had came through today and expressed their disgust by almost taking her completely apart and kicking her across the floor before being caught and taken to their parents. The staff then proceeded to simply pick up what was left of her and put the mess of parts back in the corner she usually resided in.
Mangle was never really accepted since she was activated at Freddys. Her first time being involved in a birthday party with the Fazbear crew was a disaster. While she felt she had done well, it later turned out that she had actually scared many of the kids with the routine she was given, angering the parents which led to them leaving all together. She was eventually taken to the back with her counterpart, Foxy the Pirate, where she sat for about two weeks before the owner, who paid good money to have her build found out. Furious that the staff simply threw the animatronic in the back, he demanded something, anything to be done that involved her. Eventually she was put out for the kids to take apart and play with, which is where she laid to this day. The pile of parts she had become eventually earned her the name "Mangle" by the few staff, putting the tortured animatronic in an even darker place.
The other animatronics, while having sympathy for her, made sure to keep their distance in fear they would end up in a similar attraction; even Foxy didn't venture to that part of the pizzeria. Foxy cared immensely for his counterpart, treating her like a sister, but now he couldn't bear to see his own torn apart like she was, so Mangle was for the most part left to be alone.
Down the hallways and through a cracked open door, Freddy, Foxy and Bonnie could be seen standing in their corners of the storage room. It had been silent all day like it usually was. With the distant sound of the party echoing down the hall Foxy piped up, causing the other animatronics to almost jump at the unexpected vocalization.
"Freddy. . . When are things going to change?"
Freddy turned toward the far corner, seeing Foxy looking down at old Chica, already in sleep mode.
Freddy frowned and looked at Chica and then Bonnie. Chica and Bonnie had had a rough time with the multitude of parts taken from them since the new bots were brought in, and it had taken its toll on his old friends.
"I don't know Foxy. With how things are going, we might not see much of a change for weeks, months, years. I can't tell anymore."
". . . I miss the kids. . .", Foxy closing his eyes, barely remembering the good times when they were first activated.
"I do to Foxy", Freddy looked at old Bonnie, who was now looking up at the two talking. Freddy turned back to Foxy, "We all do. . ."
New Bonnie and Chica finished the song in the party room, marking the end of the birthday. They could be heard down the hallway saying their goodbye's to the kids before Chica went back to her stage spot and new Bonnie entering the supply room.
"What a party!" Bonnie announced as he walked in.
"We heard" Foxy replied, keeping his eyes shut, still reminiscing.
"I bet! Freaking kids wouldn't stop asking me to play that song! I swear one of these days I'm just going to find a nice hiding spot and chill out there for a day!", Bonnie said chuckling.
"Any one of us would gladly trade with you Bon! You don't realize how good you have it!" Foxy snapped, glaring at new Bonnie.
"Foxy, calm down" chimed old Bonnie, but Foxy continued.
"Do you even realize what is happening to us back here!? We're rotting! Left for scrap and spare parts! The best moments of my life were with the children that we performed for, and you talk about how much of a burden it is to you!? How dare you!" Foxy yelled.
The room fell silent once Foxy finished. New Bonnie's ears had fallen flat as soon as he realized what he had just said.
"F-f-foxy, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it lik-"
"Shut up! I don't want to hear it!" Foxy yelled one more time before turning to the wall away from new Bon.
Bonnie 2.0 looked to be on the verge of crying if an animatronic could perform such a thing, before Freddy put a hand on his shoulder.
"It's alright Bon, we know you didn't mean anything by it, we're all just going through hard times right now."
"I'm sorry Freddy. Its just been a busy day, and the Chica and Freddy out there, they just don't have the personality you guys do. . ." Bonnie 2.0 said lowering his head.
"Oh boo hoo! Go tell someone who cares!" Foxy spat out.
"That's enough!" Boomed Freddy, silencing both of them.
Mangle had listened to the whole conversation, causing her to sigh sadly.
'. . . What kind of life is this? Foxy always talks about the "good times", when he use to tell tall tales for the kids around the pizzeria, or when Freddy and the lot would perform for the kids. At one point or another, they have all been loved by someone. . . I have no reason to be here. . . What have I done wrong?'
With that last depressing thought, Mangle started preparing for her sleep mode. Maybe chasing that pesky exoskeleton tonight would make her feel better.
In the gaming area, the sound of furious clicking and lasers firing could be heard. 8 year old Elliot had finally reached the next level of the old shoot-em-up in the corner of the game room he'd been grinding for the whole birthday party. The brown haired boy readied himself for the start of the next level, only to immediately die once the level started.
"That's not even fair!" the boy said under his breath, disappointed. He quickly checked his pockets, only to pull his hand back with nothing but lint in his palm.
"Jakes moooom, can I have some more quarters?"
. . . Silence.
The boy started walking back to the party room to hopefully get some more quarters, unaware the party had already ended and everyone had left, when he heard a couple of voices. Listening closely, Elliot could tell one of them was Bonnie, who was just playing for his friend's birthday. Excited to get to meet Bonnie, he ran towards the voice but stopped just outside the door of the room Bonnie's voice was coming from, hearing a different voice. Elliot tried to listen to the conversation, but the heavy door was muffling most of the sound, at least until a thunderous voice silenced the conversation.
Incredibly curious as to what was going on inside, Elliot grabbed the door and swung it open with both hands.
The first thing Elliot saw was Bonnie. Smiling Elliot stepped into the room.
Bonnie whipped around, meeting the gaze of a young boy.
"What are you doing here!?" Bonnie cried out.
"I heard you from down the hall and I wanted to see you Bonnie" The boy said innocently. "Who were you talking to?"
With Bonnie still looking back in shock, Elliot looked around the room, but quickly realized there was something standing next to Bonnie. His eyes adjusted to the light in the room and soon Elliot realized he was looking at an old Freddy animatronic.
"Whoa! Are you Freddy Fazbear!? My dad told me all about you when he was little!" The boy cried out with excitement.
Freddy looked down at Bonnie, smiling a bit at the horrified animatronic beside him.
"I sure am, what's your name short stuff?" Freddy asked smiling like he had thousands of times before.
"My names Elliot and I'm not short! I've grown 2 inches since my last birthday!"
"Wow, you keep growing like that you'll be as big as me." Freddy chuckled. "When's your birthday Elliot?"
"I think next month." The boy said with a big smile
"What's this I hear? A birthday boy is getting ready to pull into port?" Came a crackly voice.
"Oh my gosh is Foxy here too!?" The boy said excitedly.
"Aye! It be me, Captain Foxy!" Foxy announced as he stepped into the light striking a pose next to Freddy.
Elliot ran over and hugged Freddy and Foxy, the two bots hugging the boy back. Freddy looked up, smiling at new Bonnie who was still amazed at what he was seeing.
As Elliot let go of the two, Foxy got down on one knee, eye level with the boy.
"Elliot, how about a ride on old Foxy's shoulder through Freddy's, what say ya?"
"Aye aye Captain Foxy!"
Foxy recoiled for a moment, smiling awkwardly, not expecting such a correct answer.
"Alright, well hop on and we'll set sail!"
Elliot jumped on Foxy's shoulder as happy as could be and the two went off into the empty pizza place.
New Bonnie stared, mouth open in amazement at what he just saw before shaking his head and coming back to his senses.
"Freddy! You guys know you're not to be out in the rest of the building until closing! You could get into huge trouble!" New Bonnie said in a panic. Freddy watched Foxy carry the young boy down the hall and heard them both start laughing.
"It's alright Bon, let the old seadog live a little, it's been a while. The staff are all on lunch; they have plenty of time to mill around a bit. . ." Freddy said watching the two round the corner.
