as mid-day arrived mike looked at the dinner, since the 1987 incident the place got less and less customers who came, taking a deep breath mike pushed open the doors to the dinner, his outfit was pretty normal except that now he carried a back pack with him, glancing around to make sure no one was looking he made his way to the storage room were he was planning to sneak into the new room to find out what other dark secrets the dinner was hidden away in this room away from a customers and staff member's viewing eyes to keep those secrets in the dark. once inside the storage room mike took a deep breath, covered his nose and mouth with his sleeve; carefully pushing open the tree looking doors mike made his way inside and flicked the light on in order to see where he was going so that he didn't trip but sadly they didn't work as time had taken its tole.
turning on his torch mike walked down the hallway, going past the kitchen, the storage room and the toilets, soon he had reached the other set of tree designed doors that would lead into the main room of this area of the dinner. gulping some and taking a deep breath again and with a sharp shove which opened the stuff doors which revealed the room that had the feeling of death, the room was fill with paper plates, rotting food, blood stains, skeletons and broken down animatronics, six in total at what could see in front of him. carefully making his way to the main stage mike took in his surroundings as it all felt familiar to him but he wasn't sure how or why, the spider web tables, the spider shaped center stage, the grass like carpeting, the bat shaped speakers... from the big details all the way down to the small details of the spiders webs on the cutlery handles.
glancing up at the stage mike saw the destroyed remains of a bat as well as a skunk/spider hybrid on either side of the withering wolf/scorpion animatronic, grunting some mike pulled himself up onto the stage and shone his torch onto the front of the animatronic which was stained with blood and had a section of the stomach missing but what mike saw inside made him nearly throw u[p inside his mouth. inside the animatronic was the skeletal and torn clothing remains of a girl no older than 8 years old inside of the animatronic but what stunned mike even more was the cloths, one of the missing children from 1977 was wearing that dress yet inside this animatronic was her remains, which made mike's mind race, were the other missing children inside the other animatronics and foxy? how did the body go unnoticed? is the person responsible a staff member or the animatronics themselves?
stepping away from the animatronic mike didn't notice the lose cables covering the stage and in his attempt to get away he tripped over the cables falling off of the stage with a startled yell, closing his eyes mike expected the hard ground to meet his form but it never came for him so mike nervously opened one of his eyes to see why he wasn't falling and he had to hold in a yell of fear as to not alert his manager. in front of mike was the wolf hybrid animatronic holding his shirt tightly in its one remaining hand, 1 of its 6 legs was missing while another 1 was damaged, one of its eyes was missing which caused the other to glow brighter to make up for its missing eye; it tilted its head slightly causing its ears to fall in that direction as well as its pitch black hair, as mike remained still he watched as it pull him back up before sitting him down on the stage.
Mike's POV
i couldn't believe what had just happened, this animatronic was meant to be shut down yet it just saved me from falling off the stage as if i was a little child, but how it caught me... it was like i fell off this stage before yet i don't even remember ever coming to this section of the dinner in my life until last night and today, just like the dinning area this animatronic seemed familiar to me as if i had seen it before but i don't even remember seeing this animatronic. shaking my head to get rid of the thought i then noticed an old poster lying on the stage next to where i was sitting, on the poster was this animatronic when it was new as well as a bat animatronic and a spider/skunk hybrid animatronic, glancing at the top of the poster were three words in a Halloween themed text that read "melody and friends". looking up from the poster to the withered animatronic in front of me gave me the idea that this lone animatronic was melody, the Halloween monster, i clutched my head some as faded images flashed in my mind, what did they mean and why did they have to appear now of all times when i was at most risk of attack...
watching the animatronic closely it looked like it was mourning something or someone close to it, maybe the loss of its stage companions? what ever it was it is surely stranger than finding out that the animatronic entertainment is intelligent as well as being self aware at night but forcefully enter show mode during the day yet this one was different. she was action all on her own and not running off of the show program whatever it was for her, not letting my eyes leave her i watched as she picked up a small eye patch that looked like it belonged to a little kid as well as a pirate outfit to match it making it clear that the kid was a fan of the pirate animatronic. i was about to get up and leave when i saw its mouth open.
"i'm sorry Michelle..." she spoke, her voice filled with static and rush, how she knew my name was a mystery to me which made me wonder what else there is to this place id don't know about or even remember as my past is all a blur to me but things felt familiar if i had no memory of every coming here before i started to work here over 10 weeks ago to start living a normal life again. shaking my head i cleared the thoughts from my heard and made my way out of this section the same careful way i had come in when avoiding people and the day staff, once outside i got the bus back home to get some well earned rest before i came back to work the night shift so i needed my sleep in order to stay awake tonight for work. looking up at the sky i could see dark clouds making their way here indicating that a storm was going to be on its way soon, the magnitude of it i wasn't sure about but it couldn't be good at all, especially for people if the city had a flash flood because of the storm.
by the time i got home i just collapsed onto the couch in my apartment and falling asleep the second my head hit one of the pillows, smiling at the welcoming darkness i accepted the embrace of sleep but as i was drifting off into dreamland i could hear the faint sound of beeping which now accompanied me whenever i fell asleep, it happened that much that I've come to ignore it now when i go to sleep with it just beeping in the background like white noise as I've gotten used to hearing it.
when night fell and i had entered the dinner, locking the doors behind me waving to those on stage as well as poking my head into pirate's cove only to frown seeing the pirate fox being "asleep" until midnight arrived here, which was 5 minutes away which means a couple minutes to check on the monster animatronic before they entered free roaming and spot me in there when i shouldn't be in there, rushing off i entered the Halloween area again only to find that the animatronic was gone and in my panic to find her i didn't hear the midnight bell ring.
suddenly i felt a large hand grab my shoulder resulting in my to scream like a little girl, it wasn't until i heard a deep familiar chuckled that i knew Freddy was the one who had found me in this "forbidden" area as Bonnie had put it. following Freddy he led me to the dinning room instead of my office which confused me
No POV
once mike was seated on the stage there was a loud rumble of thunder a bright flash of lightning which high lightened the torenchal rain outside, as mike fiddled with his hands he noticed Foxy and Bonnie were missing yet before he could ask were they are they came in dragging in the withered monster animatronic which struggled in its restraints as it tried to get free. Chica held mike in his place while Freddy powered down the animatronic before the bear turned towards mike
"Michelle, care to explain why you went in that room?" questioned Freddy
"Bonnie peaked my interest and it also felt familiar to me some how" muttered Mike
"familiar? how so?"
"i don't really know, sorry Freddy"
"... i know..." spoke Foxy, startling the other animatronics and Mike.
what did Foxy know that Mike himself didn't know about his own past? was it something good... or something bad?
