Chapter 2: Signs and Warnings

May 18th, 1996 horrific homicide is committed at the local pizzeria. At least 4 children stabbed to death… "Suspect caught 3 days later in his home and now is facing 25 years to life" Ralph said reading out loud an old newspaper from 1996 about the murder. He put the paper down and picked up another one about the bite of 1997 then early 1998 when the night shift security guards started to disappear from the pizzeria. He doesn't know why but he has been really obsessed with this place and its horrific history, from it being hunted with evil spirits to failed health inspections. The more he thought about it the more he thinks that those creepy looking animatronics had something to do with the missing security guards and other events. He didn't want to believe that those things could kill but he has heard stories about them saying things in demonic voices about death and blood spill. Why else has the security guards never returned home? Because the last place they were seen was at the Pizzeria with their car still there!

Ralph had an idea, since he couldn't just walk into the place without looking suspicious he went downstairs and retrieved the phone book. "It has to be in here somewhere" he said flipping page after page "AH HAH found it!" He took the phone off the hook and proceeded to dial the number he was looking for. "Frazbear Pizzeria" "Uh yes, I wondering do you guys have any job openings right now?" Ralph was shaking nervously but quickly stopped as the guy on the other end of the line came back on "Yes we do and it's the only one. Do you mind working as night time security? No experience is needed we'll teach you everything you need to know" Ralph felt like he hit the jackpot and coolly said "Alright just what I was looking for. Is there an Inter-." The man quickly butted in "No not at all just come in tomorrow morning and we'll take it from there".

"Are you out of your mind?!" Eva said, another good friend of Raphael who was 17 years old with long light brown hair, blue eyes, and a few freckles on her face with the tanned skin. She worked at an arcade a few blocks down from the pizza place. Now sitting in her room on the bed talking to Ralph. Her parents were pretty cool with Ralph since he was gay and didn't need to worry about him coming on to her or anything like that. "Listen I know it sounds insane but maybe I can figure out why those things are so evil as everyone claims" Ralph said laughing a bit but Eva did not look a bit amused "Ralph I may have to slap you in the face later on for this crazy idea of yours but listen to me you do not want to work the night time security or any position in that place. Those things will kill you no matter who you are, why? Those things move at night time and not for birthday parties. They will stare at the camera when it's switched on." Ralph was now looking at Eva as if she had two heads "Eva I understand what you are trying to do but I want to find out for myself and I will not let them get to me or scare me." Eva sighed and put a hand on his shoulder "It does not matter Ralph I care too much about you to let you get in a dangerous situation like that" Ralph smiled "I know you do but I promise to come back. No matter what goes down I will come out alive".

The next day Ralph walked into the Pizzeria and the unexpected happened Freddy came walking towards him with those worn out animatronic eyes targeted on him. Ralph was about to go into combat mood but he walked right passed him to a table with a family waiting on him to wish their kid a happy birthday. "Yeah, better move on" Ralph was about to continue walking when the other two bumped into him singing that same old song. Ralph had to calm himself down a little bit he did not want to cause a scene jeopardizing his opportunity. "Hello, I'm Mr. Frazbear and you must be..." they shook hands "Raphael I'm the one who called about the job yesterday" "Oh great…wait how old are you?" Frazbear asked "17 but I'll be okay it's just watching over the restaurant how hard can it be?" Frazbear grinned "Alright son you got the job so here is your uniform, the key and be back here at 11" Ralph took it all and shook his hand "Not to worry sir, I won't let you down" just then a loud crash was heard like something crashed into the door. "That clumsy bear, don't worry though they move around at night time just so that they won't lock up during the daytime because it's a pain to get them unlock but they shouldn't bother you just make sure when one falls just pick them up and they'll turn the other way. Hopefully." Ralph opened the door to exit the office but not before looking down at Freddy who was still on the floor still doing the walking motion "Let me help you there" he reached down to pull Freddy up but he was caught off guard when he was pulled down next to him and Freddy head quickly turned to Ralph, those two face to face again "You" the robotic bear said with that demonic voice with his eyes glowing yellow then turning back to normal when Mr. Frezbear came out of his office "Hey what are you doing down there with Freddy? And the stage is that way Freddy" he said as he helped Ralph up then stood Freddy back up and set him toward the stage with the rest of the band. "Sorry about that, you alright?" Ralph smiled slyly and nodded his head "Yeah I'm fine" "You changed your mind after…you know…because of that" Ralph had to laugh at him "Not a bit I'll be back here 11 sharp alright?" Mr. Frazbear smiled "Alright you go ahead and get some rest and good luck tonight" "Sure thing boss" then he walked down the famous west hallway to the stage where they were frozen in place again and since things were running slow today he decided to go on stage and talk with the band a little bit. "Hey you guys and girl" Ralph said snickering then he touched Bonnies guitar and rubbed his pointer and thumb together "When was the last time this was cleaned? It's covered in dust" he asked to the motionless robotic bunny not really expecting an answer. He went over to Freddy and Chica then stood between them and put both arms around their necks like they were best buddies. He smiled "So I am the new night security guard and I heard stories about the four of you" looking either at Freddy or Chica then down "You like to stuff people in suits? Wow pretty brutal if you ask me those suits are not made t for a human body to wear. Are you planning to put me in one tonight?" When he asked that question Chica turned head and dropped her beak expecting to freak out Ralph but he didn't even flinch "I'll take that as a yes?" Ralph pushed her beak back up closed "I will kill you friend" Chica said without moving her beak "You have no fucking chance" said Freddy in his regular mechanical voice. Ralph only laughed and begin to walk off the stage until Bonnie moved his arm onto his shoulder as if to get his attention. Ralph turned around only to have the band all starring at him "We're gonna have a fun time (them in a deep voice) see you in hell" the purple bunny eyes turned black with a red dot as pupils then back normal again. He brushed the arm off his shoulder and continued walking off stage "Yeah see you in hell" as soon as he walked off the stage going pass the closed curtains of pirate cove he heard a voice "AR a tough guy a? We'll see about that when I make ya walk tha plank!" Ralph frowned then to a sly grin "Don't worry Foxy my foot will be turned sideways up your broke down furry ass tonight" He could have sworn he heard a growl but didn't act on it wanting to save all his energy for tonight. He just had no idea what he was getting himself into.

And the story continues…
