A/N: Hey guys, welcome back to a new episode and HOPEFULLY the last of Week 0, before we get into the REAL story. By the way, yes, this is a prologue-thing chapter, it's explaining events BEFORE that Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria 2 opens. Mike will still be the security guard, new animatronics, old ones won't be dismantled, blah. Blah. Blah. Anyways, as always, happy reading!
Mike drove to the Pizzeria the next day to go on another dayshift. The Pizzeria, incredibly, was locked down. Not because of police, but because it was being remade. It had so much income that it decided to improve the building.
"What the.." Mike looked around, spotting Sylvie, giving some directions.
"Hey, Sylvie, the heck's going on here?" Mike asked Sylvie, looking at the stripes.
"Uhh, we're remaking the Pizzeria. Didn't you get the memo? No? Well, anyways, we had so much income we decided to remake the Pizzeria. Cool, ain't it?"
"Yeah, sure. Does that mean I get to close the doors all night long?"
"..Well, some parents were ranting about the fact that we have two big-ass steel doors in a kids' pizzeria, so we decided to take them away and give you a mask.. if animatronics come in your office. Don't worry, they won't kill you, they've been updated with facial recognition."
"What about the old animatronics?" Mike asked.
"They're getting revamped. The AI is still the same, also the memory, they just get new looks and whatsoever. They will retain everything else than their old suits. There's also going to be two extra. They proposed a gift-giving animatronic and a balloon-dispenser animatronics. I accepted, but the initial projects seem scary. Especially the p- oh, wait! I can't tell you anything; you'll get to see them tonight. So, uh, that's about all. Okay, I gotta go inside and check things out. See you later." Sylvie entered the building, leaving Mike, who had a lot of questions in his mind. Especially, what did she mean by 'tonight'?
"Huh.. And what now?" Do I have to wait 'till midnight here..?"
Mike did so, observing the work untill midnight.
-break
The chimes outside the building rang. It was finally midnight. Mike entered his office, to hear a prerecorded message of Sylvie's voice playing.
"Hello? Hello..? Oh, uh, if you're hearing this, then, this is your first night here at the New and Improved Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria! Mike, I know you've worked here for 3 weeks straight, but rules are rules. Gotta tell you the intro." Long, long, blabbing about the introduction. Mike almost fell asleep.
"Alright, so, the building does not run out of power, but there's a flashlight there you need to shine a flashlight down the main hall. An animatronic enters the office? Put the mask on and let it go away! Keep the music box wound, et cetera. All solved. Anyways, see you on the flip side!" The recording hung up.
"The music box..?" Mike switched to CAM11. There was a touchable button saying 'Wind Up Music Box'. He guessed he had to keep it wound, so he did.
"Mike?" Three familiar voices called out.
"Chica, Bonnie and Freddy..? Hey, guys, over here! I'll shine a flashlight for you!" He'd shine the flashlight down the hallway, spotting them.
"Thanks." Bonnie said, waving. "Do I look different? I feel different. My suit is..strange..and hard. The other one was more leather-ish."
"Same here." Chica agreed.
Freddy nodded. "Same here. Have you got any idea what happened, Mike?"
"They revamped the restaurant.." Mike said. "Gave you new suits, and other stuff." He said, touching the Wind Up button.
"What are you doing there on the tablet?" Chica said, curious, peering at him.
"The manager said I had to keep the music box wound. It's strange, I don't know why."
"..Freddy, you too have heard that music on the stage?" Bonnie asked.
"Yes, indeed." Freddy answered.
"Something showed up on the stage earlier. It didn't look like you. Or us." Chica said, putting Quakey (the name she gave to the cupcake) on the Office Table.
"Meaning?" Mike asked.
"It was..something with a mask. Very skinny. Black and white striped body. White, pinprick eyes. It stayed attached to my suit mask and didn't go away untill it was midnight.. It was very strange."
"Hey, look what I found, fellas!" Mike switched to the Parts & Service room.
"Our old suits? Wow. They kept them for real.." Freddy said, grabbing Mike's tablet.
"DON'T break that. It costed me 135 dollars, ya' know.."
"We did the hug test, Mike." Chica said.
"Still don't trust you guys handling my things."
"..Fine." Freddy handed it back.
"I really like my new guitar." Bonnie stroke a few strings. "Woah! It sounds even BETTER than my old one! Fantastic!" He stroke a few more.
"Quakey looks better now. Much better." Chica said, caressing Quakey. Quite the strange habit..
"Yeah. I don't like winding this stupid ass music box.. You guys should go check the, uh, Prize Corner out someday. I might even come with you."
"Isn't that too dangerous? Other animatronics thinking you're an endo?"
"No problem." Mike got up, fitting on a Freddy Fazbear suit and head. It was reddish, unlike Freddy's.
"Hey, that's my suit.." Freddy complained.
"Not a problem." Mike said. "This is quite comfortable, actually.." He said, moving his head around. "Can't see much, though."
"Yeah, just take it off. It's weird seeing two Freddies.." Chica said, her processor not being able to render two Freddy Fazbears.
"Okay." Mike fitted it off.
A deep laugh echoed through the Pizzeria..
"Oh God.. Oh shit. Oh fuck. I know whose laugh this is.." Mike said, flashing the flashlight around.
"Whose?" They all said in unison.
"Freddy, don't you remember? It was your laugh when you moved around in my first week."
"Doesn't that mean.."
"..that there's an older version of me roaming around the Pizzeria..?" Freddy said.
"..Yes, that is the case. And if we have an old Freddy.."
"Then we have an old Chica and an old me." Bonnie said, looking at Mike's camera.
"..And Foxy."
Static echoed through the room.
"What the.."
Mike looked in the vents, spotting 'Mangle', tossing his Freddy Head on.
"Uhh, it's clear here, Roxy." Mike said, while 'costumed'.
"WhO aRe YoU?" Roxy's broken voice box wasn't the best to hear, but Mike could make a few words out.
"I'm Reddy Redbear, Freddy Fazbear's brother. Isn't that right, Freddy?"
Freddy nodded.
Mangle stayed silent, heading back into the vent.
"This is gonna be a long week, and it's still 3 AM.."
