Chapter 3

A Broken Promise

Is it really worth it?

No it isn't.

Shut up.

Just admit it. This is pointless.

SHUT UP!

Just give up.

"Shut Up!" The phantoms turned to look at Springtrap as he yelled.

Why did I say that out loud…?

Over the last few hours, his two sides had been constantly quarrelling with each other about whether or not escaping was worth it. He wasn't sure why part of him didn't want to leave. Maybe it was the fact that this was all that was left of the Fazbear's Legend of animatronics roaming at night. But was that really important?

"Michael?" He looked at the phantoms.

"I'm cool, guys. Just the stupid voice in the back of my head." "Sure…" He turned back to the secret room. He intended to return to inspect Golden Freddy a little more. And he also wanted to know why Bonnie hadn't become a phantom either. There had to be something he'd missed. There was still time until 12 AM. He placed his hands on the door and pushed. The door stayed where it was. He pushed harder. It still didn't give way.

Come on!

He slammed his fist against it. The door stayed still. He tried again. But it remained unmovable.

Why?

Unknown to him, a golden bear was observing his every move. But it couldn't stay for long. There were other things it had to attend to. It quickly teleported away before Springtrap could see him. But in his hurry, he'd forgotten one important thing. He made an extremely distinctive noise when he teleported. Springtrap turned and grinned. He'd guessed what was going on as soon as he'd heard the noise. He remembered it to well.

"Trying to play games with me, eh old friend?" He walked to the place Golden Freddy had been standing. "I like games. Hide and Seek?" He looked at the hallway stretching out in front of him.

"I'll count to a hundred."

Golden Freddy leaned against the wall. No one else knew that he was here, apart from Springtrap. He'd heard what he'd said. He liked Hide and Seek. It brought back good memories. He trudged down the hallway.

Where should I hide?

He took a left and entered one of the many vents.

Clunk, Clunk.

He knew that Springtrap could hear him. But that was what he wanted. He wanted to be found. The good memories were flooding back in. He remembered only happy things. Friends. A family. A life outside of this… prison. This suit which contained him.

"Come out, come out, wherever you are!" Springtrap sang in a singsong voice. "Like the vents? See how you like this!" The vent-lock in front of him slammed shut. He growled and looked back. He'd used up all of his teleporting energy. He'd grown weaker over the years, since he didn't use it as much. He spotted Springtrap clambering through the vent, a permanent grin on his face. "Miss me old friend?" Golden Freddy gave him an expressionless stare. Springtrap frowned. "What's wrong? You don't like Hide and Seek?" Golden Freddy glared at him. "That's better…" Springtrap frowned. "How long were you in there? The same as me? 30 years, really?" Golden Freddy continued to glare. "Let me guess… You don't forgive me." Golden Freddy's glare wavered. "Ha, so I scored, eh?" Golden Freddy nodded. "You know, I'm aware that you can talk. You can't hide it." Golden Freddy teleported away. Springtrap groaned. "That guy has serious problems."

Golden Freddy teleported away to the office. Although he wanted to be found, he didn't want Springtrap to know that. He wanted to be unexpected. He watched Springtrap crawling through the vents on the cams. He grinned as he sealed the vent-lock in front of Springtrap. He frowned as Springtrap pointed the rude finger at the camera before retreating. This would be tough.

"Seriously?" Springtrap muttered. He backtracked out of the vents, accidentally bumping into Phantom BB.

"Hey, watch where you're going!" Phantom BB growled. Springtrap paused. "Hey, BB." BB turned around. "What?" "Do you mind helping me get to Golden Freddy in the office?" BB frowned. "Golden Freddy is in the office? Well… I'll help then." "Thanks… Hey, reckon you could tell the others?" BB nodded before teleporting away. Springtrap grinned and looked at the camera. "See how you like this old bear."

"SSHHHHHRRRRRAAAAUUUUGGGHHHHH!"

Springtrap grinned as he heard the alarm going off at the office. "Let's see if you talk after this."

XXX

Golden Freddy frowned as Springtrap wasn't responding to the audio signals. The thing was, he couldn't hear the audio signals either. Unbeknownst to him, Springtrap had rigged the cameras to not display any errors. The alarm was blaring, so Golden Freddy figured that something was wrong. He pressed the Reboot All button, but nothing happened. Springtrap had rigged that as well. He growled as he was jumpscared by Phantom Freddy. He heard some clunking in the vents, and knew that Springtrap was there. He knew that there was nothing he could do. He'd drained his powers. And Springtrap was fast. Fast enough to be considered a user of teleportation. Springtrap exited the vent to his right, the grin back on his face.

"Nice game, old pal. You played well. But I've been practising." He tossed Golden Freddy a bundle of wires that had been missing from the controls. "Now spill." Golden Freddy sighed. He didn't want to talk to Springtrap. But well…

"Why?" Springtrap blinked. He was surprised that the bear had decided to talk. "What do you mean?" "You dismantled my friends." "Oh, that…" Springtrap shrugged. "My dad asked me to. Plus, I figured that it had a chance to bring the spirits to rest." Golden Freddy frowned. "Perhaps. But they're not resting now. They've come back. They're still alive." Springtrap emitted a hollow laugh. "I'm aware of that. They killed me." His expression darkened. "Along with you." Golden Freddy shrugged. "I helped you escape from your father." Springtrap growled. "Perhaps, but you thought that I was him. You were so blind with rage that you didn't care who it was that you killed. You didn't even stop for a moment to consider the risks. You didn't care." Golden Freddy tried to not look guilty. But he couldn't deny what he'd done.

I killed Michael.

"Baby may have killed me, but at least she brought me back to life. We were bound by a promise. But I still forgave her. You know why? There was nothing she could do. It wasn't the others who killed me. It was you." Golden Freddy looked down in shame. He knew about Michael's bond with Baby. He gathered together enough energy to teleport away. Springtrap sighed and went limp on the spot, staring at the wall.

Tomorrow is another day.

Back in the hidden room, Golden Freddy stood before a towering shadow.

"D-dId AnYOne FINd Yo-oU?"

"Yes. Michael knew." "WhATE-ve-er ab0ut MICH-Ae-AeL." The figure darkened. "Re-MEMBer, Y-You canNO-T AlLOw anY HuMAN T0 SeE You. We-e Wil-l LeAvE WiTH thEm Tom0RRow. PrEPAre THE 0TheR BodIE-es F0r travel." "Yes…" "Go0D. Le ve ThE re-St To ME." The figure sighed as Golden Freddy teleported out of the room. He placed his costume head over his endoskeleton. The purple ears that once stood tall were now hanging down from a few strands after years of decay. His maw hung open, with no way of closing up. His eyes rolled around aimlessly as he walked towards a poster of Bonnie the Bunny. He pressed his paw against the paper. His father had loved… He stared into the eyes of the Bonnie on the poster that had once been him.

And now I have loved.
