Five Nights of Apprehension
Hey guys this is chapter 2 of Five Nights of Apprehension in this one the plushies will reveal their past to Jake and this time I'm using a laptop again so it should be longer and with less misspellings.
Chapter 2: retold truths
Jake was on his way home from school after an ok day, it could have gone better but he was satisfied with the work he had done today, one of his friends, Ben had noticed that Jake seemed a bit weird today and went to ask him.
Ben: "hey Jake, you ok buddy?"
Jake: "yeah, why?"
Ben: "well I saw you day dreaming again, but you did it for longer than normal, is everything alright?"
Jake: "yeah why wouldn't it be?"
Ben: "well you know my dad is a counsellor so if you need anything just let your dad and me know, ok"
Jake: "well seeing as you asked, I've got these plushies in my new room and they talk"
Ben: "whoa, serious?"
Jake: "yeah man, do you believe in the super natural, you know... ghosts?"
Ben: "well my dad tells me to stay open minded, so I'd like to say yes but, I've never seen or heard any ghosts"
Jake: "well maybe I'll bring them to school and show you, or when the new Freddy Fazbear's opens"
Ben: "yeah that'd be cool, well got to go see you tomorrow"
So Ben went home leaving Jake to do the same, when he got home Debby had just finished cleaning up and the house smelled of lavender, it was a nice welcoming scent and helped Jake relax so he could be ready for tomorrow, as he walked in Debby was wanting to talk to him about other voices in his room but she was risking looking like a maniac as she knew she was about to ask a strange question.
Debby: "Jake, can I ask you a question?"
Jake: "yeah, what's up mum?"
Debby: "well... last night after you went to bed, did I hear other voices in your room?"
Jake: "well first let me ask you a question, you're superstitious right?"
Debby: "yes of course, you know that"
Jake: "so you believe on ghosts?"
Debby: "I'd like to believe so, I always think that your Grandma is looking over us and protecting us with her love"
Jake: "me too, but there are souls possessing those plushies on my bed side table"
Debby: "really now, well I'd like to meet them please"
Jake: "sure, I bet they'll like you"
So Jake and his mum went to Mike's old room to see the plushies, at first they didn't move as the souls didn't want to stay in the darkest part of the void for too long but as the voices of Jake and Debby spoke they made their way back to meet Debby and assure that Jake was their friend.
Debby: "so they talk do they?"
Jake: "yeah but you have to give them time, they are travelling through a place they call the void"
Debby: "well that certainly sounds like a place ghosts would reside, but why must they travel so far"
Jake: "they said it has something to do with the location they dead, apparently they have to go to a dark part to possess the plushies and it can corrupt them or something"
Debby: "well that's a bit contradictory"
Plush Freddy: "I'm with you there"
Debby: "OH MY GOODNESS!"
Plush Freddy: "oh, sorry to scare you Miss Deborah, I was just commenting on your statement"
Debby: "it's alright I just didn't think you were actually possessed, and just call me Debby"
Plush Bonnie: "so are you surprised that we are here, do you have any objections about us being here?"
Debby: "well no as long as you don't hurt my son"
Plush Pete: "well, that could be a problem"
Debby: "what, what are you doing with my son?"
Plush Pete: "we need his help to free us and every night as he sleeps he will be brought to Freddy's house, there we are monsters trying to catch him and if we catch him he'll have to start the night all over again, if he cannot stop us he will be trapped till he can and the longer he stays the more strain he will suffer"
Debby: "strain, like what, headaches?"
Plush Sarah: "no love he will go insane"
Debby: "WHAT!"
Plush Chica: "I know we are sorry but we need him to do this or we'll become those monsters soon enough, we need a way to break free"
Debby: "well that's fine but if there's a chance that my son can get hurt then I want to help to, my mother always told me to help people in need, no matter what it is or how difficult, if you can bring me with you in this dream I can help"
Plush Oscar: "you're willing to help us and your son to set us free?"
Debby: "yes I am, all I ask of you is how did you get here, how did you... die?"
Plush Foxy: "we went to a Freddy Fazbear's pizza and we were having fun, it was great so many good memories but one day a man in purple killed us"
Debby: "a purple guy?"
Plush Lenny: "exactly, he killed us too but we went to a rival chain, Pete's Burger bar, we had good times there too but the same guy killed us and we all got stuffed into the animatronics there"
Debby: "whoa two different places, one man, same tragedy, it's so sad"
Jake: "what a jerk"
Plush Sarah: "that's not all after we were killed we got shut down and ended up in Freddy Fazbear's pizza, and that's when we met Mike"
Jake: "who's Mike?"
Plush Chica: "he's the best thing that ever happened to us, in fact this is his room, a year ago he got a job at the pizzeria and helped us with our problems and helped us get revenge on purple guy, but we didn't find peace, we fear there is more that needs to be done and this is the next step"
Debby: "well don't worry kids we'll help you"
At that point Garth had come home and they realised that they had been talking for a couple of hours, weird it only felt like a few minutes but they didn't mind it was time for dinner, they had a spaghetti bolognaise while watching telly again and again the new Freddy Fazbear's pizza ad played, this time it showed the Freddy crew alongside the Pete crew and their new design, this interested Garth.
Garth: "hey cool, they brought back the Pete crew but aren't they apart of Padbear entertainment?"
Debby: "maybe they got bought out, don't you think?"
Garth: "it's possible but with how many closures they had it's hard to believe, maybe it has something to do with the stories"
Jake: "and what stories would they be dad?"
Garth: "well there was one where after Pete's Burger bar shut down, some of the animatronics were sent to Freddy Fazbear's pizza, others were sent to some place on a hill and the last three were sent some place unknown and the animatronics themselves are unknown, I read somewhere that one was a Peahen but they where unused within the bar and no one truly knows what they are"
Debby: "well then looks like they've redesigned them too, I hope it will be fun and safe"
Jake: "don't worry mum it'll be fine"
After dinner Debby now knew that bed time would be soon and wanted to help her son with the poor souls still trapped in a purgatory state so she quickly washed up and kissed her husband on the fore head then they went up to Mike's room to get ready for bed, more like to get ready for Freddy, as they got ready the plushies explained more about the nightmares and the representation of them.
Debby: "so these monsters you talked about, what are they?"
Plush Bonnie: "they are nightmare versions of our animatronic bodies, they represent both our future and our current turmoil of wanting so desperately to be free, if you can stop them from getting into the room then they will lose power and the voids hold on us, we will be free without the need for revenge"
Debby: "surely it's not that simple?"
Plush Chica: "no it's not, you risk your own sanity by going there as if you are caught by the nightmares you will start the night over"
Debby: "and if we stay too long we will get strained and go insane"
Plush Freddy: "indeed, but with your help we are sure that you and Jake can save us"
Debby: "well then let's get some rest Jake has school in the morning and I want you to work as hard as you can"
Jake: "I'll try"
With that Debby went to her own room to sleep and enter the nightmare filled dream, but Jake was apprehensive as the nightmares were vicious abominations and scared him when he first saw one but also knew there were more he hadn't seen so he asked the plushies to sing a song to put him to sleep.
Jake: "guys I can't sleep, do you know any songs that can make me sleep?"
Plush Bonnie: "I know of one, but just to warn you it's not exactly pleasant"
Jake: "I'm a big boy now, I can handle it"
Plush Foxy: "brave words, hit it"
(Now play my fav fnaf song Nightmare by NateWantsToBattle)
Plush Bonnie: "just sleep, just dream, just sleep, just dream,
And in the back of my mind,
I've been trying to chase a monster this whole time,
But I couldn't see the monster was me,
And no one heard our cries,
Now I've run out of tears,
The time has come for me to disappear,
Get me out of this mess,
And away from this stress,
Set me free so I can rest,
We're only kids who lost our way,
But if we wait long enough,
We will be saved,
Just sleep, just dream,
This isn't fair no we're not just what we seem,
We want to fly,
But our souls are trapped inside,
It's not a game, not to blame,
We're forced to hide,
Just sleep, just dream,
It's only a nightmare and soon we'll be set free,
(And soon we'll set free)
And I've crying out for help,
I know I bite but I mean well,
Can you see my disguise,
I'm different inside,
Can you break this spell,
All the ghosts from before,
They're knocking and they're breaking down your door,
So please set us free,
Now you have the key,
Cus I can't take the pain no more,
We're only kids who lost our way,
But if we wait long enough,
We will be saved,
Just sleep, just dream,
This isn't fair no we're not just what we seem,
We want to fly,
But our souls are trapped inside,
It's not a game, not to blame,
We're forced to hide,
Just sleep, just dream,
It's only a nightmare and soon we'll be set free,
(And soon we'll set free)
After the song Jake felt sorry for the plushies being forced in this state just to have a chance at being free but then felt in his mind that helping them was not only the best option but the only option, so with the song replaying in his mind he fell to sleep, his eyes opened to him and Debby in the same bed in the same room as last night, the only noises being heard was the chime of a grandfather clock and a music box version of the song Plush Bonnie just played, Debby saw Opal, Ashe and Finn and greeted them.
Debby: "oh, hello who are you two?"
Ashe: "I'm Ashe and this is my sister Opal"
Opal: "it's nice to meet you miss"
Debby: "oh call me Debby, you know you two remind me of two Cats I had when Jake was still a baby"
Jake: "yeah I thought I recognised them, they looked so familiar"
Debby: "so what's with the sky scrapper in a suit then?"
Finn: "I'm Finn, happy to make your acquaintance Miss Debby"
Debby: "wow everyone is so nice to me and yet you all died so young, I'm sorry for you all"
Opal: "I believe you're mistaken, we aren't possessed by child souls, we are naturally sentient"
Debby: "oh, so where do you come from?"
Ashe: "in reality we come from Freddy Fazbear's pizza just like Freddy, Bonnie Chica and Foxy, but after the purple guy ruined it for us we got thrown away"
Debby: "that purple guy again, he likes to make a mess don't he?"
Jake: "yeah sounds like it"
Opal: "but here in this dream world we act as guardians to help you with the nightmares and ensure you get through the night, but as the nights go on we will lose power and you'll have to fend for your selves so good luck night 2 has started"
So the night started and almost as soon as it did nightmare Bonnie came down the hall, Jake went to look while Debby listened for any strange sounds, Jake was at the door and it had been several seconds without a sound so he flashed the touch down the hall and saw a decayed purpley-blue Rabbit duck away from the light, while that was happening Debby swore she heard some kind of kitchen noise, like pots and pans being put on a stove and she thought "is someone making pancakes at this time of the night, sounds like needs narcolepsy over insomnia" as a part time nurse Debby would sometimes think of aliments people or even objects may have just by hearing things or looking at them.
Jake came back with a smile, he was happy his mum was here to help and that he successfully repelled one of the nightmares, but more was to come as they heard a loud roar from behind the right door, both Debby and Jake went to the door followed by Opal, Ashe and Finn, they waited behind the door for the breathing and when it sounded it was very different to any of the other nightmares breathe, the sound was a mixture of a Cat purring and the turning over of a car's engine, form that they deduced the nightmare behind the door was Lenny, they shut the door and he left.
As they came back to the bed there was the faint screaming again.
Debby: "what in the name of the universe is that sound?"
Jake: "oh no, the Freddels"
Debby: "the whatels?"
They turned to face the bed and Jake used the torch to light the Freddels up, this time Finn picked them up and threw them out the right door, but what followed scared them, Freddy laughed like a sinister mad man which sent chills down their spines as well as Opal, Ashe and Finn, not only that but nightmare Foxy got into the wardrobe and Debby only just noticed.
Jake: "mum be careful, I don't know what happens if you get too close, that didn't happen last night"
Debby: "don't worry Jake I've had a Dog before"
Jake: "you didn't tell me that"
Debby: "it was before you were born"
So Debby walked up to the wardrobe door ready to face the Fox, with the torch in hand she was ready and slightly opened the door and as she turned on the light Foxy growled at her and threatened to bite but Debby was having none of that.
Debby: "bad Fox, down"
Nightmare Foxy: "sad Fox whimpers"
Debby: "sit... good boy"
Debby then found a spot on Foxy's head that still had plenty of fur left and started stroking it, when she was a teen her family had a Rottweiler which was at times aggressive towards people, sometimes ever her and her family, her dad was always the one to tell it off and teach it right from wrong, whenever it ran off or made a mess in the house it would be left outside for a couple of hours to teach it a lesson, when Debby felt she could look after it her dad told her the best way to do it and every time it had done something good she would stroke the back of its head near the ear, the same principle worked on Foxy.
Debby: "now be a good boy and tell me, why are you trying to catch us?"
Nightmare Foxy: "we want to be set free, if we don't get free eventually we will turn into monsters, restless souls trapped in a cycle of death and destruction forever, well will want to kill and rip everything apart"
Debby: "so you are trapped in this void and it has a corruptive hold on you and if you don't get out, this is what you'll eventually become?"
Nightmare Foxy: "yes, you are the only ones who can help us you have to keep us away to destroy these monsters and maybe we'll be free"
Jake: "are you even sure you'll be set free if we do this?"
Nightmare Foxy: "it's a slim chance but we are willing to try"
Debby: "well then my fluffy Fox, I'm going to have to shut the door on you"
Nightmare Foxy: "WHAT!"
Debby then shut the wardrobe door, she wasn't told about them being tricky but she didn't need to she's seen it before, the puppy Dog face may be irresistible to most but she can see through it like it was a window and knew it was a trick to let her guard down, Debby and Jake high fived for another successful night but night 3 is next and that will start the true test for both of them.
Jake wake up and saw the plushies happy this time and now it was time for school, what will the day bring, will Jake be able to focus more today or will he get side tracked again who knows, after all tomorrow is another day.
So that was chapter 2 and well that's more like it around 3000 words in this chapter so thanks for reading if you liked it then be sure to come back for more and thumps up for the return of fnaf songs, I may find a way to place real world songs in there too but I need to get a good situation first then it makes the song all the more powerful but till next time
