Author's Note:

I am trying not to fall behind on chapter typing. I am taking two English classes, but no writing assignments yet. I am anxious to start doing some writing assignments for some reason. All of that is irrelevant and should be disregarded. On with the second chapter…

Thank you KillerWoW for reading and reviewing. Thank you for your eventual reading Phoenix-Magic :). You two are great fans and I am glad y'all have been following me so long.

Rolling on with this chapter that I haven't planned prior and I am writing off the top of my head…

Chapter 2: Déjà Vu all over again

(My Point of View)

We scrounged around the rubble of the restaurant and found nothing. Some workers tried to run me off, but they stopped trying when I told them who I was.

"There is absolutely nothing here. Wait… what about the old restaurant?" I asked

"I forgot that place existed." Goldie responded.

"What are we waiting for, let's go!"

We sped off to the old location. An image flashed through my head of the day me and Goldie met. That was followed by the image of when I told him I loved him and that first kiss we shared when I was petting his ears. I just sat back and thought about all that we have gone through since then and how close we are now.

We pulled into the parking lot and got out.

"At least it is still standing. Why did the puppet want that other restaurant demolished?" I asked.

"How do we know it is even the puppet doing all of this?" Goldie asked turning to me.

"Who else could it be? You are the closest thing we have to the puppet, but you are not all knowing. You are a life giver though as we have seen with the Toys."

"I wonder if life giving works on humans."

"Let's not get in a situation where you have to test that."

I ripped the police tape off of the door and walked in.

"Eew! It reeks of death in here!"

"There are many memories closed in the walls."

Joshua followed closely behind me. His scent receptors could analyze what I was talking about. I found a flashlight in the office and shined it around. There was no electricity and it was hot in there. The smell was just awful.

"Why are we here again?" Goldie asked.

"We are looking for hints that the puppet is among us."

We went back to Parts and Services. I saw the room I used to meet up with Goldie in. I looked over to him and smiled.

"This is where it all started with me and you." Goldie said.

I shined the light in the room. The memories were tugging on my heart in a good way. I started crying tears of happiness.

"Y-Yep." I said sniffling.

"Are you crying?"

"I am just so happy."

He wrapped me in a hug.

"I am happy too. We have come so far and have faced death many times."

"I love you Goldie. Let's get out of here before I turn from happy to very sick."

"I love you too." We walked to the exit and out into the fresh air. I took in a deep breath. Joshua went to the car. A police officer rolled up.

"Great…" I said.

"What are all of you doing here? This is a crime scene." The officer asked looking at me.

"We were surveying the property. We didn't know this was a crime scene still. The man who ran this place and had his family killed has been jailed." I responded respectably.

"I almost didn't recognize ya. You must be the newish owner Gabe. Aren't you retired?" How did he not recognize me? I am the only one in this town and possibly this world walking around with an animatronic bear.

"We are thinking about starting back up. We haven't announced it yet though. It is sort of a surprise." I had just lied to a police officer. He would have called me crazy otherwise.

"You should try that old Fredbear's Family Diner on street 15. I could escort ya."

"Thank you sir. I did not know that place was still standing."

I hopped in the driver's seat. The nice police officer started up his car and lead us to the very old and very abandoned restaurant.

When we got there he signaled us to stay back and pulled out his gun.

"Have to make sure there are no crazies occupying the place. It has been decades."

He slowly opened the door and walked in. It wasn't a big restaurant, so he didn't have to go far.

"Clear!" he yelled from inside. "I am sure y'all need to be alone. I will head out. I'll be nearby if y'all need anything." He went to the edge of the parking lot and lit a cigarette. He was going to be a big help in all of this.

I went around to the side of the building and switched on the power.

"Well the lights still work." I said somewhat relieved.

"Look at this place! My memory is starting to come back to me. The real memory not the one the puppet made up."

He went over to the stage and stood on it. He glimpsed down at the floor and his expression changed juristically. I ran over to his side. There, where he was standing, was a blood stain. We all knew it was from that day. Next to the blood stain was his microphone. He bent over and picked it up.

"I have not sung since that day." He said. "My voice is more powerful now than it was that day."

"Why do you say that?"

"I have no endoskeleton and my words aren't programmed."

He started singing our song. (Can't think of a good song fo me and Goldie. Hmm…) I sat and listened closely, taking in each lyric as he sang. He was right, his voice was powerful. When he finished, I walked up and hugged him.

"You are an excellent singer."

I heard clapping at the entrance to the restaurant. I had forgotten about the police officer

"You still sing pretty well Fredbear."

"Thank you officer."

"Yes you do sing quite well. Hi there Goldie, or Fredbear, and welcome back to where it all started…"

There was only a voice and no figure. I could easily tell who it was.

Narrator: Just then, Gabe was struck in the chest and fell to the ground. He lied there unconscious.

(Goldie's Point of View)

"Why did you hurt him? He did nothing wrong!"

"You two just couldn't stand the mystery and followed my tracks right back to here."

The officer pointed his gun around the room.

"Show yourself!"

The puppet showed himself for a second.

"Surprise!"

The officer yelled and then clenched his stomach and fell.

"Assault on an officer eh?" I asked.

"He should know that guns have no effect on me. Quite a pity how those foolish Phantom animatronics thought they could kill me also. It is quite a shame how they are lying unconscious."

I signaled to Joshua to stay out of sight. The "all knowing" did not know Joshua was here. I kind of did a silent laugh.

"Why are you laughing?"

"You have everyone fooled. You are not 'all knowing'."

"What makes you say that?"

"You think I am going to tell you? You have to tell me."

"Oh you think you are so smart."

"Well I revived the toys while you were busy crying."

"Who do you think caused the death of the toys? Who do you think made the manager turn the gun on himself? Who do you think is the cause of Springtrap's death?"

"So you are telling me that you are the reason Springy is dead?"

"Exactly! I am the dark force making your life hell!"

"You were lucky to have the power to do that. You could have done a lot of good."

"Good? What would be the point of doing good when evil is more rewarding? Look around you, I could ruin your life with the lift of a finger. You see the love of your life lying on the ground for the hundredth time? I could kill him easily."

"You're weak which makes you power hungry. Now that you have the power, you are using it to make you seem strong. You are nothing!"

"How long shall we keep this dialogue going? While we are standing here chatting, I am growing stronger. The Phantoms could not kill me, only weaken me. You shall see in a few days. Scrape your useless husband off the ground and get out of here while you have the chance."

I signaled Joshua to come out of hiding.

"That is the thing you missed "all knowing."

"I knew he was there."

"Yeah…sure…whatever…"

"Will father be okay?"

"Yeah he is just knocked out."

I picked him up and walked to the car. I went back inside and grabbed the officer and placed him in his car. I proceeded to drive back to the facility.

I arrived and the rain was coming down heavy. I decided to leave my suit jacket in the car.

"Are you coming inside Joshua?"

"I think I should stay here with father."

"Alright little buddy, I should only be a few."

I climbed out of the car and went inside.

"John I need to speak with you and the phantoms in the lab area."

It was very crowded. Mangle found a way to climb up the walls and sit on a pipe on the ceiling. I guess being broken taught him a lot.

Me, John, and the Toy animatronics met in the lab. The Ais for the other nightmares that were incomplete were still there.

"So what is going on Goldie?" John asked.

"The Puppet is back and gaining strength." I said.

"You're telling me I put my gang at risk for nothing?" P. Freddy asked.

"Basically that is what I am saying. He was only weakened."

"Well that is just brilliant. If I would have lost Phantom Foxy hearing this news, I would be very pissed! Phantom Foxy means the world to me!" P. Freddy said turning to P. Foxy.

"Don't yell at me! I did not ask y'all to go up against the puppet! I didn't even know what was going on! I am sick and tired of everyone turning to me like it is my fault. Freddy did it and hurt me a lot."

"I am sorry Goldie. I should be yelling at Freddy."

"No one should be yelling at all. Let's just all get along and get back to business. There is something keeping that puppet. I am trying to find the source."

"Was there anything at the demolished restaurant?" John asked.

"No. We went to the one before it and it smelled of dead and held no answers. A kind police officer led me to Fredbear's Family Diner."

"That shithole is still standing?"

"Yep and the blood stain is still there."

"Damn…"

There was a long moment of silence. Freddy came inside and broke the silence.

"Wh-what is all th-the chatter a-about?"

"Nothing too important…" I lied. He saw right through me.

"T-the puppet i-is back i-isn't h-he?"

"Yes the puppet is back. John can you fix his voicebox?"

"Sure let me take a look at it."

He took out Freddy's voice box and examined it.

"What happened to it? This is nearly unfixable."

"Very long story I wish not to discuss."

"Well let me take the chip from this one and put it in a new voicebox."

He found a voicebox and stuck the chip in and stuck it back in Freddy.

"Testing… This is a lot better."

(I had to fix the voice box. It gets tedious typing stutters.)

"Okay so we need to strike while the puppet is week." I said.

"Count us out!" Phantom Freddy said.

"Count ye out ye mean. I wan' t' help." P. Foxy spoke up.

"I am with Phantom Foxy." P. Chica said.

"Please do not do this Foxtrot." P. Freddy said. That was what he called P. Foxy.

"I have t' lad, anything t' rid this world of evil."

"Let me go and you stay. I would rather die than to see you die."

"In my opinion, neither of you will die." I said.

"How do you know?" P. Freddy asked.

"How hard could it be to take out a piece of tiny, invisible, insignificant plastic?"

"You make it sound easy. Have you seen the Battle of the Minds?"

"You all are the only ones to see it and beat it. How you survived is a mystery."

"We are smarter than the insignificant plastic. We are ghost animatronics that can die but never age. We are intelligent and we are polite."

"Well this has been a fun chat, but I have to feed Joshua, wake Gabe up or put him to bed, and sleep. This day has been tiring. I will see you all tomorrow to hopefully plan some more and not get carried away in senseless dialogue."

"See you tomorrow Goldie." Freddy said.

I went out to the car. The rain was still coming down strong. I climbed in and Joshua was laying against Gabe in sleep mode. I smiled at the two of them and started the car. What will happen tomorrow?
