Chapter 2:
Taking The Job
Mike Schmidt, a young male who was desperate for a job. His social background wasn't perfect and with the lack of jobs out there, looking and getting the job wasn't going to be easy. Even for people who went to university were struggling to find a job, there just wasn't enough jobs out there for everyone. The flap of his letter box was heard as the newspaper was pushed through. Groaning, Mike got himself up from the chair in his kitchen and dragged himself over to the newspaper on the ground. Reaching down, he grabbed the paper and dragged himself back to table and opened up the newspaper. Flipping through the paper, he stopped on the jobs page. The page in the newspaper he can find easily. The news didn't bother him like it should do. The jobs were going to keep him alive, not what's currently going on in the news. His eyes stopped on one job advertisement.
HELP WANTED!
Freddy Fazbear's Pizza
Family Pizzeria looking for security guard to work the nightshift. 12 am to 6 am. Monitor cameras, ensure safety of equipment and animatronic characters. Not responsible for injury/dismemberment. $120 a week. To apply call: 1-888-Faz-Fazbear.
Mike's eyes widened reading the job. It was so simple and he had seen the job on offer before, normally after a few weeks it was back in the paper. He wasn't sure why it was back in the paper once more but it was something he could do. Since it was during the night, it didn't disrupt his online courses that he was doing to get some more qualifications. Grabbing the phone, he dialled the number and called Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.
Hunting a Contractor, Hunted by Animatronics – Chapter 2
The animatronics felt themselves power up after the night shift. They turned to face the current manager of the building, a young business type male with polished black shoes, clean black hair and the usual black business suit complete with a black blazer, white shirt and black tie with a pair of long black trousers. He was the perfect picture of smart business type men. He eyed the animatronics as they stood up on stage. The image he came to this morning wasn't a pretty sight to walk into on early morning hours, the restaurant was going to be closed for the day while they sorted out the mess that the animatronics had left for them.
"Alright, all of you look at me," he spoke to the animatronics. Freddy Fazbear, the brown furred animatronic with blue-eyes, black bowtie and a black top hat on his furred head while holding a microphone in his right paw. Freddy was the leader of the band and that wasn't going to change, the first animatronic there meant that he was the wisest of the four of them. The bear was kind when the children were around but also played a part as a mentor to the other animatronics here as well as the children when they ask him for advice. Next to Freddy was the large purple bunny holding a red guitar. Bonnie had purple eyes as well as a red bowtie under his chin, similar to Freddy. Bonnie's always the energetic one with a happy personality. Bonnie enjoyed teaching the children how to play his guitar and was often the childish animatronic out of the four animatronics present in the building. The third animatronic there was a large yellow chicken named Chica. She played the mother of the group, wearing a big which had sprinkles on with the words Let's Eat on. Chica was holding onto a robotic cupcake, pink icing covered the top with large eyes popping out, a thin candle on top with a robotic flame on top. Chica loved to cook, so the bib design and the cupcake played a part of that fact. When allowed off stage, she helped the cooks in the kitchen.
"Yes sir?" Bonnie asked the manager.
"Mr. Thomas was stuffed into a suit. There is another advert in the paper and you will be watched every night! I don't care how many you kill, after 90 days will there be a missing person reported, like usual. You will be watched every night by different night guards! You're just like the children who keep coming here and enjoying the same stupid routine!"
"But-" Bonnie started again before he was cut off.
"I'm stuck keeping this place running! I'm stuck with the worthless job here! If I had MY way, you three wouldn't be here and neither would Foxy! After the golden counterpart of you Freddy was found to be used for the original 5 killings, I would have closed this place down. Taken you all for spare parts of just tossed in the scrap yard!" The animatronics flinched.
"Please don't power us down!" Chica begged the manager. He shook his head.
"We're closing down in a few weeks anyway! I'll be free from the curse of this place!" And with that, the manager stormed out the room, he was going to yell at Foxy as well. The animatronics looked down.
"A few weeks...and we'll be useless..." Chica started to sob; it wasn't like they didn't have feelings of their own. It was part of their AI. They had learnt the emotions they couldn't feel and they loved their jobs, animatronics or not...seeing the happy smiling faces of children was something they'd never forget. The room fell silent as the animatronics all sat down on the stage; today was a closed day thanks to the night guard but it was also the manager's fault for being so rough on them. The voice of their manager was soon heard as he yelled at Foxy.
"Foxy's always got it rough..." Freddy sighed, taking off his top hat. Their ears picked up a crash coming from the backstage, too quiet to be heard at Pirate's cove but not too quiet for the three animatronics on the stage.
"Freddy?" Bonnie asked Freddy confused. Freddy nodded and stood up, Bonnie and Chica got up too as they left the stage once more and walked towards the sound of the crash.
Hunting a Contractor, Hunted by Animatronics – Chapter 2
Mike was ready; he had an interview with the manager of the restaurant and he was going to sell himself the best he could. The job depended on him doing well for the interview waiting for him. He had already caught the bus to the restaurant and he was told that the door was going to be unlocked for him. He could enter, do the interview and then wait for the results from the interview and go home. He'll receive his uniform during the night and then do the shift. It was an easy job to do. Sit in the office and watch cameras to make sure that nothing gets damaged or broken. It wasn't that hard to do. The bus stopped at his stop and Mike made his way off the bus.
Walking down the pavement, Mike briefly remembered a few tips that he needed if he was going to get the job he wanted. He had a shower, look presentable with a clean shave, he wore his posh clothes to get the interview and also had knowledge on the being a security guard at night. The restaurant came into view, bringing a smile to his face he picked up the pace to reach the restaurant.
The building stood tall among the other buildings nearby, the family restaurant wasn't a bright and colourful as it was when it first opened but it was still a bright building, the family of Freddy Fazbear's were stickered on the doors and windows. Mike looked at the purple rabbit with the red guitar, the yellow chicken with her pink frosted cupcake with eyes and then the main member, the brown bear, Freddy himself. Mike pushed open the doors and entered, ignoring the closed sign he reached into his bag, pulling out a file, he opened it and pulled out the application he printed and filled in. As well as his CV and some aids for his interview.
"You must be Mr. Schmidt?" Mike looked to see the manager walking towards him with a smile on his face.
"Yes sir, Mr...?" Mike questioned.
"Mr. Guy," he said.
"Right, we talked on the phone and I ca-"
"You've got the job, get here by 11 pm so you can get your uniform and have a little tour of the building as well as a rundown of your job." A firm hand was placed on Mike's shoulder with a gentle smile on Mr. Guy's face.
"Thank you, sir! I won't let you down!" Mike could have leapt for joy if it wasn't for him being in the presence of his new boss. Mr. Guy took his hand off Mike's shoulder and went back deeper into the building.
"Just another toy for the animatronics to kill..." Mr. Guy muttered under his breath.
FireCacodemon: Here's chapter 2 of the story, Mike now has his job. Which can only mean one thing :D Night 1 is coming next chapter. Thank you for reading.
