Shelby's POV

"What!" All of us scream. Mike just told us the news. All four original animatronic, Winter, our guest who's sitting in the shadows but who decided to come, Odessa, and I are sitting/standing around him in shock.

"I can't do anything about it." He shakes his head. "It's business of course."

"And you kept it a secret for a week? You just tell us the night before the move!" I yell at him. I feel angrier than the time when he left the office without my permission and got himself beat up by the brainwashed animatronics. The news doesn't really affect the other animatronics, but it does affect me. I've lived here for two years, this is my home. These are my family. I don't want to abandon them.

"I don't want to leave." I say with a sad tone in my voice.

"Like I said, I can't do anything about it. They're shipping you out in a week."

"Where is this new location going to be?" Freddy asks.

"Chickadee, Tennessee."

Then silence fills the room. "No, not that place." Chica whispers.

"But, at least he's caught already." Bonnie says his voice wavering and glitching.

"What's so wrong with Chickadee?"

"Mike, Shelby, Chickadee was the town where we were murdered."

"WHAT!"

Foxy answers our statement "Yes, in 1987 there was a building featuring the toy animatronics. Toy Freddy, Toy Bonnie, Toy Chica, Toy Me or the Mangle, Balloon Boy, the Puppet, and…" Foxy drifts off.

"Peggie." I say.

He nods, "Those prototypes are just like us. They were killed by the murderer."

"Wait, I thought you said only five children were killed in the second one."

"It was a mistake on our part, there were ten of them. The murderer of us, the convicted murderer of the first incident, Fritz Smith was caught and he's sentenced to life in prison. However, after they caught him, the second missing child incident came into view. The murderer for this incident is unknown. They eagerly agreed to help us in our quest for justice. Except, the Mangle as you know got a little too excited when she thought she spotted the killer and bit his head off. Turns out that it was just the day shift." Freddy says.

"Jeremy Fitzgerald." I say, remembering the info they told me.

"Yes, like we said a while ago." Chica replies. "I mean I don't hate him as much as the others but still, Fritz Smith was his step-father. He'd known that man since his father left him at age 1. He was quite sweet before the incident, but a bit ominous. It always felt he was hiding something. Turns out he knew that his father was the killer and he was the one who turned him in. I don't judge on the past though. I think Jeremy needs a fresh start, although Foxy's sister/counterpart the Mangle ruined that."

"Hey, I don't have control over me sister. She acts on 'er own." Foxy said in his pirate's accent. "Any' way I guess this is goodbye for now. I hope to see you someday Shelby." I nod at him

Foxy and I never been very close, but this has been the closest we ever been. "As do I Foxy, Chica, Freddy, Bonnie, Winter… Odessa." I say hesitating on Odessa's name. Odessa nods at me. We've never really been on good terms, but on the past year's she's been working on redemption. I agree she is better than she was before nowadays.

"It's almost six," Odessa comments for the first time since we've talked about this. We get up but then I feel a pressure on my back, Mike turns too since a large fuzzy purple hand was on his shoulder.

"I have a favor to ask you Mike, and Shelby." Bonnie says.

"What."

"Unlike the other four animatronics, I don't believe that Fritz is the murderer of them. I think he was a scapegoat and the killer made him insane so he couldn't rat him out. His stepson, is my favorite choice Jeremy Fitzgerald."

"So what do you want us to do?" I say leaning on the leg of a table

"Investigate more on the two Missing Child Incident. Find you what really happened."

"Wouldn't you remember who your killer is though." Mike asks.

Bonnie shakes his head, "No, the man was wearing a purple morph suit. He killed us all without revealing his identity. However there is one clue that only I know, my brother and counterpart, Toy Bonnie once told me that his murderer shared the same quality as well. Piercing violet eyes." Bonnie says threateningly. "His eyes were the only part of his body that wasn't covered with the purple morph suit. He has piercing violet eyes. That's why I don't think that Fritz is the murderer, his eyes are green not violet."

"Who else has purple eyes?" Mike says.

"Most likely, someone in the Fitzgerald family. Their father, Vincent Fitzgerald was a 6 times convict, he's in maximum security prison now. Anyways, before he left the family, he and his wife's has a three sons and a daughter: Corian, Jacob, Jeremy and Jenny"

"Wait you mean as Chica?" I gasp.

Bonnie nods, "Yes, Chica she is Vincent daughter and Jeremy's brother. Anyways, none of their children has a happy ending. Jeremy, as you may know was the Bite of '87 victim. The Mangle bit off his frontal lobe. Jacob was one of the kids murdered in the second missing child incident. He was stuffed into the Toy Chica suit and Jenny well as you may already know is in Chica."

"That's really sad. Two children, both siblings were killed in the incident." I exclaim loudly.

Bonnie makes a sour face but continues, "Lastly is Corian. He's a convict. He's a convict, charge for the murder of his own wife and child. He plead guilty and is right now sentenced to life sentence. If the other animatronic would have noticed that the second murderer had violet eyes, they would have thought Corian is the murderer. But it doesn't seem right to me. This is where you come in. You guys, Shelby and Mike need to find out the truth. This is our only chance at peace. We need our revenge to find peace."

"I don't agree with the killing, but I will help in all my power to find out who the second murderer is." Mike says. I stare at him, our eyes meet.

I sigh, "Fine, I agree too."

"Thank you Mike, Shelby." He nods to us and walks away.

The chimes ring. The manager almost immediately bust through the door, but fortunately we make the impression we are going back to the stage first. "Schmidt, today's the day. Unfortunately due to budget cuts you have to drive her there." He jabs a finger in my direction. "With you."

"But-"

"No buts Schmidt we need to leave now load her on."

He gives in and signal me to follow him. I follow him outside the door, for the first time in two years I see the sky. I realize how much I missed the outside. For two years I've been cooped up in a building smaller than the house my parents owned when we were five. It is a nice change, a nice start for the new adventure. I will face new threats and challenges. Meet new friends and foes.

They lead me into Mike's car, which is a quiet small car actually but still it was a beautiful shade of red. "Nice car," The manager mutters. "I wish I had a Fiat 2015."

"It was a gift from my foster parents."

"It runs on electricity right?"

"Yeah, my foster parents are environmentalists. They want me to be one too. Honestly though, I don't really care for it."

"Well, Schmidt. I hope you enjoy the six hour drive to Tennessee. Your new boss will meet you there and take you to the place you are going to stay for the summer. His name is Brandy. He's a close friend of mine actually. Just mention me and he'll be there."

"Ok, but sir."

"Yes Mike." He says with a slightly irritated tone.

"I don't know your name."

The manager laughs. "I almost forgot. I never told you my name and you've been working here for a year. My name Mike, is Jack Harris." Then the manager, Jack walks up to me. "Well, Shelby. It was a pleasure having you here but like I said this was business." He pats my head, "We'll miss you Schmidt. Thanks to you, we don't need a security guard." He walks back into the building.

"Well this is going to be a long trip." He sighs.

"Six hours in a car with my idiot brother." I joke. He punches me lightly. Slightly alarmed at the metal exoskeleton.

We leave, "So how's mom and dad?"

"You mean Justin and Rachel?" He says, calling our foster parents by their first name.

"Yeah, how are they?"

"Not too thrilled I would be going down to Tennessee by myself, but hey I'm practically an adult now."

"You're still twenty, Mike."

"So are you. Wait, actually you are seven. You're practically a child." I nip at the sleeve of his shirt playfully, just like our old puppy did back when I was still human.

We soon drive past his house. A simple two story house once a bright yellow color, now has been matted down to a dull yellow. A large tree stand in the front with a swing set. A giant gray dog is napping in the sunset. Two elderly couples wave at Mike who waves back. They see me and they frown, since they don't recognize me. It sends a slight jolt of emotional pain through me.

"They don't like robots. They think it harms the environment." He explains. "Also, I have a surprise for you." He whips out his phone and there are the four movies for the Hunger Games!

"Thank you Mike!" I yell trying to hug him. He chuckles and click on the first movie. As soon as the opening words are display, we get lost in our own world. Silence fills the air only interrupted by the movie sounds. It stays that way for the entire trip.

Yeah, I know it gets pretty bad as you near the end, but you have no idea how many times I had to edit this chapter because I wanted to change the backstory and who was the killer in this incidient. Overall I ended up with this. The next chapter will be out soon, although I'm not sure when.
