Freddy and Leigh hugged each other like brothers do. It was one of those very rare times, the animatronics wanted to smile. To express happiness again. But the pass of time had taken a negative effect on them.

"Where have you been all this time?" Freddy whispered sadly, backing away a little as Bonnie and Chica came closer, hobbling from time to time.

"It wouldn't be a surprise if I told you right now." Leigh replied mischievously.

"Surprise… I've been waiting so long to hear that word again." instead of that monotone voice, happy words were the ones Bonnie talked with now, like in the old times. Leigh smiled, turned sad again after seeing what he had done to his friends.

"Guys, I'm so sorry." Leigh said worriedly, recognizing that he shouldn't have abandoned the animatronics just like that, without telling them anything, like they were just normal animatronics. Freddy and the others had something special: they could feel and express emotions without being programmed too. And that was what made them unique.

"Oh, don't worry about us." Chica replied, finally cheerfully as she used to, now that the only person they loved was there. Suddenly, a low yelp was heard. Leigh knew that sound by heart. He looked at pirate cove. Sure enough Foxy was out, but not moving, expressing the saddest expression Leigh has ever seen on him. He walked towards the fox and put his hand on his snout.

"I missed you too, Foxy." Leigh told his so broken friend kindly, but he was only answered with a saddened blink. Foxy didn't care about the promise then. He was happy, but that joy wasn't going to last for long. When tried to speak again, horror met those pointy ears.

Foxy couldn't talk anymore.

Only the sound of his broken jaw opening and closing was heard, no words came. Leigh gasped quietly, feeling a burning shame. He was in fact the one whose fault for such tragedy belonged. Leigh missed Foxy's cheerful voice. He wanted to hear him talk again, to hear him sing again. And it was impossible.

"What have I done to you," Leigh muttered, lowering his head. Chica walked next to him.

"It's not really your fault. It's nobody's fault." She said softly, trying to make the man feel better. Foxy nodded to try and tell Leigh everything was fine, that he didn't to care so much, that it could be fixed somehow. Leigh giggled a little before his eyes widened, shined like he just remembered the most important thing in the world.

"You know? I think it's time for you to know what I'm planning to do. Maybe that will make everything better." He suddenly said joyfully. All animatronics awaited for what Leigh had to say expectantly. With no time to lose, Leigh took a deep intake of air.

"I'm reopening the restaurant!" he finally confessed, arms extended, smile brightening and widening even more.

"R- reopening?" Bonnie stuttered, shocked, as Freddy and Chica's eyes widened almost inhumanely. Foxy's jaw almost drops out of surprise.

"Yes, that's it. Big surprise, right?" Leigh confirmed with a little laugh.

"Of course it's a big surprise!" Freddy yelled happily with that blissful tone Leigh truly missed. The founder gave out yet another smile, but that one had a faint evil flavor thrown into it.

"Well, if I'm going to reopen the restaurant, first I'll have to… Well, you know, change it a little, of course." Leigh told the animatronics, erasing the evil expression on that strange smile.

"What would you need to change?" Chica asked, tilting her head a little.

"How about… everything?" Leigh replied, making Chica and Freddy frown. Bonnie and Foxy didn't seem to care that much. They actually knew that things had to change in one way or another.

"Everything? Then… that means everything is going to be new!" Chica yelled gaily as she raised her arms, causing that awkward attempt of a smile form on Freddy and Bonnie's expressions. Leigh giggled lowly as the animatronics started to mumble things to each other. Taking advantage of the distraction, Leigh then grinned evilly again, that time showing it.

After a year of planning and reconstruction, the new restaurant was finally reopened. New staff had been hired and every single thing inside the building was different except for the show stage, but of course it was a little bit more decorated. There were many new rooms. There was the game area, which was a big and very childish place with a carousel as well as some kid rides.

Then there was kid's cove, which was like the new pirate cove. There were pizza decorations in the walls and plastic presents on the ground as adornments. There were also various tables with party hats like the ones that used to be in the dining area.

There was also the main hall, which was just a normal hall with two doors that conducted to the bathrooms. One of the doors conducted to the parts/service room, which was the new backstage. It was still empty.

There were also four party rooms. All of them were identical, just with different decorations and sizes.

And of course there was the new office. It had a large entrance and two vents on both the left and right walls. In front of the red chair there was a desk with some papers and a fan. Unlike the old office, the new one didn't have any doors.

Leigh was taking a look to the new Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, all clean and improved and better in all ways. The animatronics were also eyeing their new home.

"It's so much bigger." Chica, who was at the game area, pointed out, fascinated of how everything changed so much. Bonnie, walking behind her, nodded. Freddy was looking around the party rooms, also impressed by the increased size. Foxy looked at the entrance to kid's cove.

"You miss your stage, right?" Leigh told him as he walked to his side. Foxy nodded, a bit sad, but he was mostly happy. Leigh laughed elegantly. "Well, don't worry. You'll forget all those things sooner or later somehow."

And with that, Leigh looked for the other animatronics, giggling mischievously but avoiding being heard. Foxy didn't notice the trick on Leigh's words, however. He was truly going to forget the old restaurant more sooner than later.

After having reunited all four animatronics, Leigh decided to explain what he was going to do. He was going to shut them down and wake them up when everything was ready, and so it would be a surprise.

"Is that fine for you?" Leigh concluded as all the animatronics nodded at the same time.

They were shut down in the show stage for a couple of months. They were surely going to have a surprise, but it wouldn't be a good one.
