Yay! Third Chapter is here! Etc. Etc.

Freddy: Hey, GP. You got a review!

Really? What does it say?

Freddy: Umm... "This truly was a piece of sh*t"

... You're lucky this is T rated. Anyway, enjoy!

"Yay!" the words that told Karma her little sister was present. She was all too acquainted with the voice to not recognize it nearly instantly. Her eyes bolted to the entrance, and, sure enough, little sis, 8-year-old Rebecca Rodmen, was walking in with her parents. 'Just my luck.. my sister's here..' The moment both of her parents entered the building, Rebecca sprinted to the stage to see the gang currently playing. In the same amount of time, her parents came over to grab her arms. "We need to find your brother, Becky! Not watch animals play music!" Her mother said, dragging her, literally, away from the playing gang. Karma's heart practically stopped, though it wasn't really important. 'They're.. looking for me?.. Maybe..' The animatronic cat got from her previous sitting position and approached her sister, mother, & father. While the final two of that group seemed completely disinterested by her appearance, the sooner was just staring, perplexed by her.

"Who are you?" Becky asked light-heartedly. The cat in front of her gave her best attempt at a smile. "I'm Karma! Karma the Kitty!" she said happily. 'Did I really just say that?' she thought afterwards. However, Becky didn't seem to have a problem with her answer. In fact, she gave a smile to the animatronic standing in front of her. "Hey, you wanna see a magic trick?" Karma asked her little sister. "Magic?" "Yep! I bet I can know everything about you!" 'Maybe this'll get her attention..' "Really?" Becky asked, somehow escaping her parents grasp and sitting down on the floor. "Uh huh! Let me show you!" As if actually doing a mind reading, the cat put her hand to her sister's head and whispered a few words.

"Well..." Karma started. "You're name is Rebecca! Nice name!" "Thanks!" The cat gave a laugh, which sounded a lot more like a giggle than she would've wanted it to. "Right now, your Eight." She paused a second before continuing. "& a half." Which scored a laugh from Rebecca. With that, Karma listed off everything she could remember about her sister; Height, weight, shoe & short size, favorite color. By the end of the 'reading', Rebecca was staring, clearly baffled by the cat, though still wearing a smile. After Karma had finished all of her messages, the young girl, broke into uncontrolled giggles. the animatronic couldn't help but join in, though she internally hated the fact that she was.

Once they both managed to control their laughter, Rebecca decided to try to get her parents, who had, at some point of the conversation, come back. "Mommy! Daddy! She's magic!" She pointed to the only single animatronic in front of her. Both of the parents looked skeptical, but it was the Father who voiced it. "Yeah. Sure." He said mockingly. "She probably has information about you downloaded into her software. There's no such thing as magic, Becky." The aforementioned child looked down sadly, and Karma couldn't help but feel sad herself. "Well, I can see why you think that." Karma said quietly, but loud enough for the man to hear her. "You did have magic ruined for you when you were a child." the cat used her human knowledge to her advantage once again. "What? How did you-" "Told you. Magic!"

Karma felt a smile crawl onto her face as she stared at her previous father's shocked face. Seeing this, the male quickly regained his composure. "Y-You have info on me as well, huh." He said, a tad bit of anger & nervousness in his voice. "Well, I can't forget this family!" The cat responded, earning two confused glances from the two other women. "Wha..? What do you mean by this family specifically?" The animatronic quickly looked away, though she could feel her face burning up. Well, correction: She made her face burn up. 'That's right, act like a girl, and maybe they won't know it's you..' Was her current thought process, and it seemed to be working for her so far. "Oh, sorry!" The older woman exclaimed. "N-no, it's alright." Karma simply replied before the entire group collected themselves.

That was when the Mother decided to ask another question. "Say.. aren't the animatronics supposed to stay on stage?" Once again, the animatronic cat didn't answer: she simply looked away, though this time she was not blushing. "W-well.." She started. 'What'll be a valid excuse?.. Ah ha!' "Freddy and the gang say I'm not cooridated to go on stage.." The entire group looked at the cat, clearly perplexed. ".. Do you mean 'coordinated?'" Father asked. While, internally, Karma was celebrating with an internal 'Yes, they caught it!', externally, she frowned and tilted her head. "That's what I said, right?" Rebecca, who had turned mostly silent, gave a small giggle at her, and the animatronic gave a smile to her. "Well, listen." Mother interrupted. "We'd love to stay and chat, but we need to-" "He's not here." Karma threw in. Again, the group seemed rather surprised. ".. Firstly, how do you know what we're here for? And Secondly, how do you know he's not here?" "Well, A, I know you're looking for your son because you talked about it while trying to get little Becky here's attention-" She threw in a small smile in the kids direction. "-And, B, I know he's not here because, well, this is my home!"

"But how do you know you're thinking about the same person we're looking for?" Father interjected. Now that was a tough one. At least, it would've been. But with how Karma had already established herself to her past family, she already had a valid excuse. "Kasper Rodmen, correct?" "How did you-" Before he could finish his response, the cat threw her hands into the air and said only one word.

"Magic!"

Rebecca's P.O.V

Personally, I was liking Karma's attitude. She was just being so... Happy. Careless. Cheerful. That is, until she brought up my brother's name. Now, I still liked her, but I started taking a small dislike to her when she brought him up. And before I could voice my opinion, Dad had said exactly was I was thinking. Still, I wanted to ask her a few things myself. Girl to robot. So, when the conversation had ended with the cat's shout of 'Magic!', and Mom & Dad ran down a nearby hall, I decided to talk to her again.

"Umm, Karma?" I asked slowly. I wasn't sure why I was nervous. Maybe it had something to do with what had already happened, maybe it was because I was literally talking to a robot. Nevertheless, she responded. "Yes, Beckles?" Now, that actually startled me a bit. Only one person knew that nickname for me, and that person had, from what I gathered, gone missing: Kasper. "Umm... how did you... Magic?" I didn't even finish the question before I guessed what her answer would be. However, she didn't nod. Instead, she shook her head. "Wha..?" "Listen." She said simply before walking up to me, leaving us around a similar size, though she was kind of taller.

"Umm.. A-are you okay?" I asked. She, in all honesty, was kind of scaring me. How she was acting as of now was kind of startling compared to her usual behavior. She gave a sigh before responding. "Do you know the situation about your brother?" She asked. All of the happiness seemed to have drained out of her voice, leaving nothing but sadness and.. concern, which surprised me. "U-umm... uh-huh. He went missing." "No.." "What?" I couldn't even tell if I was more angry that she was talking about my brother like a joke, happy because that meant he was somewhere, or surprised because she seemed to know more than she had originally let on.

Nevertheless, she gave another sigh and looked away, like she was thinking about something. "He isn't missing.. he's..." She took a long pause, and I could see a red liquid reveal itself at the corner of her eye. "He's dead." The moment she said that, I felt like the world crumbled around me. He was one of the people I held closest. I didn't have anyone to talk to besides him, and we managed to almost always get along. I could already feel the tears in my eyes threatening to fall. Granted, being missing was terrible, but at least then you had a chance to live. And this cat was telling me he was just.. dead. "W-w... what?" "Uh huh.. I'm sorry to tell you but.. He's dead." "W-where is he?" Karma looked away again, and the liquid that had gathered in her eyes fell down her cheek. Wanting to change the subject, I asked "What was that?" in reference to the red liquid. If she was a human, I would've guess that it was blood, or something like that from the look. But.. she was an animatronic.

She put her paw (hand?) to her face to where the liquid was, which put the color onto it. Taking a glance at it, I heard her murmur only one word. "Blood.." "What?!" "N-nothing.." "That didn't sound like nothing!" "Oh, blabbity blabby blah blah!" "What did you-" I stopped when I actually realized what Karma said. I had never heard that from anyone but Kasper, and he said only when we were arguing. 'Like we were just now..' "Do you know where Kasper is?" Karma looked away, but I saw her nod slowly. "Where is he?" She took a long break, to a point where it felt like we spent hours, just standing there. Then, she lifted her hand slowly and pointed to herself. Then, she spoke at the same speed, as more of the 'blood' pooled at her eyes.

"He's.. right... here."

Is this a better cliffhanger?

Freddy: No.

Shut up, this took over 1.5 thousand words.

Freddy: That's a lot less than it sounds.
