Chapter 4. Explanations
It was hours later before the brothers even moved but unluckily for them they were forced to when they saw Alphys and Undyne coming there way with some boxes in hand
"Woh there you two do not want to go in there" Sans said stopping them but not without he screams inside being heard
"What the heck is going on in there" Undyne asked looking at Alphys's lab and trying to drown out the sound of the screeching
"Wh-What's going on SSans" Alphys asked and frowning a bit Sans motioned everyone to follow him and after everyone including Papyrus was there Sans explained what he had found telling them how he found a human although Undyne got mad at the fact he wasn't going to tell anyone before she went stock still when he told her to shut up as he continued the story ending with what he saw inside the lab
"Sso the kids a ghost that doesn't like the item his possessing so he gets a temper tantrum" Undyne asked looking over at the screeching but Sans was already shaking his head
"Uh no I don't think this is a temper tantrum when he looked at me it was like he didn't even know me all I saw in those black and white eyes was blood lust" Sans said before everyone froze the screeching had stopped
"Wait what time is it Jack only started heading here when I stated it was almost twelve" Sans asked but before anyone could answer a new voice spoke
"It's six a.m. and i guess I have some explaining to do huh" and turning everyone looked at the doors to see the know even skinnier kid and Sans instantly noticed how bad the kid was shaking and how pale he looked but what's more was the tears even more pronounced with purple streaks looking almost freshly cut
"Well then you better start explaining punk before I" Undyne was saying till Jack gave her a glare that for some reason instantly caused her to freeze as the two black eyes with white dots stared into her very soul
"Don't call me punk" Jack said shaking before slumping with his eyes going back to grey as he slowly fell over and quickly Papyrus caught him before his body could hit the floor
"Ccome on you can can bring him into my medical wing" Alphys said looking over at the small human and quickly the group followed her lead and once they got in the room Papyrus carefully placed the small child on a bed and it was only then that Undyne noticed how small the kid was as well as the extremely dark splotch in the middle of his chest
"So what's that" Undyne asked pointing out the splotch this also caused Sans to stare
"Huh it wasn't that big before" Sans said and they watched as Alphys carefully lifted the shirt only to gasb and instantly stand back away from the kid but almost just as quickly Sans lifted the shirt and stared in shock at the kid's chest right where the heart would be was a vertical slit like something had went right through him and Sans watched as translucent blood slowly flowed out of the wound as Jack didn't even breath
"Well he's definitely dead that's for sure" Undyne said looking down at the kid before she watched as Alphys tried to pull out Jack's soul and they watched as the most mangled wreck ever came out it was a almost blooded grey with several tears all across it like something had reached in and ripped it apart only to stick it back together heck Jack's heart looked like it could just disappear at any moment with barely a breeze
"W what who how is he" Alphys said staring at the soul as it tried to brighten itself up as it fought to stay lit and carefully with everyone watching Alphys put the soul back into Jack's body and all of them just sat back watching
"Well huh this is huh" Sans said looking at the kid with surprise
"S Sans is is there anything we can do to help the human" Papyrus whispered and Sans shrugged having no idea before they heard a cough
"Heh well that sounds familiar hueh" Jack said as he pushed himself back up and coughed again with small flecks of grey blood slipping between his lips
"Jack hey kid lay down" Sans said trying to keep the kid still but Jack had quickly gotten up spitting into his palm as the grey turned into a bright red
"No I'll be fine it's not the first time" Jack said getting fully up but instantly he started falling and quickly Papyrus had moved to Jack's other side and kept him up even when his blood covered hand landed on his shoulder leaving a blooded hand print
"Huh thanks the coughing should stop soon" Jack said as his body was wracked with another cough and more blood red know started seeping through his lips
"Who did this to you" Sans asked staring and Jack could feel the anger rolling off of Sans
"A man stuck in the same curse as me" Jack said as he started walking and somewhat reluctantly the group followed but they quickly found that they had lost the kid only to faintly hear his coughing and quickly they followed the sound until the found him stepping back from a wall more blood on his hands
"Hueh you want to know my tale well Follow me" Jack said his eyes pitch black as the group turned toward the wall and gasped at what was drawn there (Follow me by tryhardninja) as Jack began to sing
At the top of the morbid blood painting was a man hidden in a shadow with a chip in hand
He's been waiting
abandoned and patient so long
a savage masked
ghost story from the past he roams
he said follow me
Then it showed the same man with a little girl beside him
follow(x3)
It showed the girl walking up to machine then they spotted the chip inside as the next image showed the machine killing the girl
over 30 years ago
when he took them down below
There was a new figure walking beside the robot as inside they spotted the girl screaming crying before the man was painted purple with a sinister grin and a chip inside
and tonight he walks again
so step inside enjoy the show
follow me, then you'll see
follow (x4)
And they watched as the man cried screamed in terror as on the outside his body killed another kid that joined the girl in following the guy
but the truth is hard to smallow
Follow me, then you'll see
Then with surprise they saw the man again but this time Jack was in front of him with a knife in his heart
follow (x5)
Then 5 others joined him
Follow me see a nightmare in action
Then it showed as Jack and the others possessed several machines each with it's own chip but then they watched as Jack was forced into 6 different animatronics
(break)
Deeds so rotten
came back to haunt him they know
Forever changed
he wears his spring locked grave
Here it show's the shadow person walking into the store with a suit
alone
He said follow me
follow (3x)
all the horrors have been sealed
boarded up they were concealed
but it's time for the real monsters
face to finally be revealed
Then they looked down and followed line after line after line as more and more people were blooded killed massacred all the while the shadow person on top smiled down at his creations
Follow me, then you'll see
follow (4x)
but the truth is hard to swallow
follow me, then you'll see
follow (x5)
Follow me see a nightmare in action
Jack finished his song with the image of Mangle biting into someone's head as Jack stood behind it with a terrified face
"I'm trapped with them there's no hope for me" Jack said leaning back on the wall staring at his creation with the monsters as even Undyne started to tear up
"Huh it would have been best if you had left us to die because know if more of them are fixed or the chip isn't destroyed" Jack said causing them to look over as his darkened eyes stared into their souls
"Then you're going to have to survive five nights at freddy's" Jack said frowning
"And most don't" Jack said leaning down as another cough went through him and his already red tinted lips got a brighter shade
"Oh hey Sans you can see my soul right can you huh just end it please" Jack asked looking down as he coughed again leaving some blood on the floor as Sans carefully moved forward
"Huh is there any other way" Sans asked looking down at the kid who slowly bent his head
"Maybe" Jack said looking towards Alphys
"Hey you're a scientist right think you can track down the chip" Jack asked looking at the monster who froze at the question before she started thinking about it
"Hmm ma-maybe but want it attack us" Alphys asked but Jack shook his head
"Nah as long as there is at least more than 2 people in the room it won't attack well not unless it's counting system has broke" Jack said getting up this caused Undyne to look at him questionably
"What do you mean" Undyne asked as Jack once again leaned on Papyrus who was very careful
"The animatronics have a tally marker in there system that marks how many people our in a room it's so that they can figure out what's the best time to strike at someone when there's only one person" Jack said causing the fish monster to shiver as she pulled out her spear
"Well then if it attacks In going to pummel it" Undyne said this actually made Jack smile
"Heh you and Foxy would probably been friends huh" Jack said laughing into his hand
"Foxy" Sans asked trying to distract the kid as they walked towards the room the puppet was locked in
"One of the other spirits because of the fact that we all lost our memories during our deaths we just took the name of our animatronics so in other words until yesterday my name was Puppet because of" Jack said right as Alphys finally got the door open and they jumped back because right in the door with grey eyes was the Puppet
"The fact that I was attached to this thing" Jack finished glaring as the animated voice came through its speakers
"We-welcome to Fee-Freddy Fazbear's where family and fun meet would you lllike a toy little children" The puppet said looking down at them
"Oh what's it doing" Sans asked looking over at Jack who was watching the animatronic closely
"Its programming activated he's just stalling us and treating us as children the puppet was a jack in the box animatronic he would jump out to surprise kiddys with a scare and then a present usually something from the prize corner" Jack said walking past the giant machine as he walked towards a box and opening it he pulled out a plush toy
"Speaking of which what happened to the other animatronics you didn't activate them right" Jack asked looking at Alphys who shook her head
"No there in" Alphys was saying till Jack covered her mouth
"Sheesh don't tell it he would probably go and fix them then" Jack said glaring at the animatronic which just stared at him as he let go off Alphys letting her talk
"Oh sorry" Alphys said but Jack just smiled
"It's fine you didn't know so for now we can look through these boxes we might be able to find the puppets blueprints" Jack said opening another crate as Undyne walked over to him and helped pull off the crate only to jump back as a hook almost came flying out
"Wow sheesh what was that for" Undyne asked looking down at the hook although she froze when she spotted blood flecks on it
"Huh that's one of Foxy's huh no looks like most of Foxy's extra parts were sent with me huh and knowing those pushover idiots they won't buy any new ones" Jack said shaking his head
"ISN'T THAT A GOOD THING HUMAN" Papyrus asked but Jack just shrugged
"Depends it's good in the fact that the disrepair that Foxy is in would cause him to be slower the bad news is that it would also harm the spirit in Foxy who will also get rusted and look more sick and such" Jack said before he moved to box aside and reached for the next one which when opened they all heard a giggle
"Oh you have to be kidding me how the hell are you online I thought for sure the company would have scraped you personally" Jack yelled pulling of the front of the box and letting a small child animatronic walk out he was about Sans size as he looked around with plastic blue eyes
"Huh guys meet Ballon boy or as most people call him the annoying robot from hell" Jack said as Balloon boy laughed again and then again and again before saying hi on a loop and soon enough everyone was glaring at the thing
"Okay that has to be the most annoying thing ever" Sans said and quickly his brother nodded as Balloon boy stopped for a bit before he did something surprising
"Well you try living with few words Bone head" Balloon boy said most of his words coming out garbled from having to put bursts of laughs and hi's
"Wow didn't know you were just on a track Bb" Jack said before he turned to them
"Well we don't have to worry about Bb here much the most he will do is steal any battery you have on you or anything shiny" Jack said but Alphys was looking through the crate
"Wait I found his blueprints maybe I can take out the kill chip in him" Alphys said and Jack frowned
"Actually I don't even know if Balloon boy has a kill chip" Jack said looking over the schematics while Balloon boy walked over to the puppet and they started talking well The puppet kept asking Bb if he wanted a toy while Bb laughed
"Yeah he does right here near his chest hmm actually I might be able to do something with it" Alphys said smirking
"Hey Jack you need only one of them right" Alphys asked and Jack nodded
"Well I can reprogram Bb and maybe change his outfit and delete some of its code so you would be able to control it always while taking out the chip then we would just have to take out the kill chip and destroy the other's" Alphys said and she watched as a bit of hope pushed in Jack's eyes
"Sure despite the fact that Bb's the most annoying of the lot" Jack said as he helped Alphys lead the animatronic boy out of the room as the others followed what they didn't notice was the puppet jump up and follow them by floating a bit above ground and going over their heads
Here you can put him in here the others our in the other room so I can take parts from them" Alphys said as the puppet floated away heading towards his partners as Alphys turned Bb off and as his body slumped she move forward and after a bit got the face plates off and when they spotted the endoskeleton inside they krinched
"Yeah know imagine getting forced into there" Jack said causing them to go green before Alphys pushed that aside as she started working on the endoskeleton head as she carefully pulled the eyes till they disconnected and then taking off the other pieces of the plastic costume and she carefully searched around and soon enough she found the chip and pulled it out disconnecting it from the machine
"So that's the little thing that has been forcing children to kill" Sans said looking down at the harmless looking chip then he placed it in front of Jack as Undyne handed him a hammer
"Smash it kid and destroy it good" Undyne said she might of been tempted on the fact that the kid had a human soul but even she could agree that even if she was cruel enough to actually still attack the kid his soul wouldn't work so she watched smirking as the kid raised the hammer and smashed it down onto the kill chip while Alphys took the plastic coverings of Bb and put them away before pulling out a laptop
"Well now time for me to get to work" Alphys said and started scanning the codes and programing inside the animatronic and as she did that Jack, Sans, and Papyrus searched the other animatronics for spare parts and dismantled them a bit more so if they activated they would be weakened and they continued this throughout the day taking parts of stuff none of the three noticing a smirking Undyne as she walked out of the building for a bit before coming back and heading back into the room with Alphys and as the hours ticked close to 12 the skeletons and ghost headed back to Alphys only for all of them to pause at the door as they stared at complete San's look alike that was if Sans was a robot
"So what do you think we thought it would be easier for you to blend in down here if your body looked more like a monster" Alphys stated smirking as she worked only pausing to notice Jack's large smile
"This is awesome" Jack stated smiling at what was soon to be his body
"Hmm I agree me and my bro could use another skeleton to help out around Snowdin" Sans stated while Papyrus cheered about getting a new brother this caused Jack to smile at the large skeleton who reminded him eerily like some other children he knew them slowly he stepped towards the Sans Animatronics only to freeze as a staticy radio noise started playing making Jake pale
"No no it can't be" He muttered turning around and up along with the others to stare at what they found hanging on the ceiling the Mangle with dried blood still on its muzzle as he glared down at them
"Crup run" Jack yelled pushing Sans aside as the Mangle launched at him then as the pair got up everyone froze as they heard a clock chime it was 12 o'clock and everyone watched as Jack screamed clutching at his chest as his soul was viciously turn from his body and they watched terrified as the scars across it stretched before with a sickening rip 5 different ways only leaving a single bit of his soul as the rest flew off into the other room where all of them spotted the Marionette holding a screwdriver before a piece Jack's soul entered into the machine as Jack who voted uncontrollable and fell over clutching his chest with wide eyes as the broken down toys slowly entered the room and surrounded the monster all of who got ready to fight back with their weapons as Alphys rushed towards the Sans Animatronics then everyone froze as they all heard a click and instantly Jack looked up staring into the brightening eyes of his Animatronics then with a jerk he went flying straight into the body making it and Alphys fall over as the other animatronics ignored this and charged screeching at the other monsters as Sans summoned a gaster blaster then everything froze as a vine was shoved through the puppets chest before with a tearing noise Jack ripped the animatronics in two with a unearthly screech then with black eyes he glared at the other animatronics as his soul lifted out of the destroyed machine and back into him
"So now" Jack stated grinning a skeletal grin as he threw up and caught the bone in his hand
"Who's next" Jack asked then with a screech Freddy and Chica charged together while Jack threw a bone threw Freddy's chest then rushed forward to punch the beak of Chica before jumping and grabbing her head before with a growl ripping it off her body causing the animatronics to call lifeless to the ground as two more pieces of his soul returned to him then Jacks eyes widened as two blue arms wrapped around his neck and lifted him up before throwing him across the room as Sans tired of being on the sidelines threw a bone through Bonnie's chest destroying another Animatronics as Jack copied Sans and teleported appearing in front of mangle who staticly growled at the ghost as Jack summoned his own Gaster blasters his being completely metal
"How about you chew on this" Jack growled before he fired and surprising him with the blasters power he watched as Mangle went through the wall and fell off a cliff and carefully all of them walked towards the edge as slowly the last of Jack's soul rose up and reintegrate itself into Jack who smiled as he clenched his new hands before turning to the group with oily tears in his eyes
"Thank you thank you" Jack stated smiling as he cried and was hugged by the group while unknown to them what remained of the Mangle slowly got up its systems damaged but still partially working
;systems reconfiguration activated; and slowly the animatronics eyes got a red glow as it moved its head before spotting something and slowly it crawled away as it stalked out of hotland and into waterfall where it found itself back at where the cargo first fell down here before it found itself in front of a patch of flowers with a small girl with red eyes laying on then before she got up her green and yellow shirt moving effortlessly as no water attached to it or her
"Huh what are you" the ghost of Chara asked before with a screech Mangle launched
Welp heh there we go Jack is free of the kill chips but it looks like someone else got it instead hehe
