Mike felt groggy as he slowly started to stir into consciousness. He could just barely make out the voices going on all around him, at least three of them being feminine and one being masculine. He fluttered his eyelids open and looked around, slowly waiting for his eyes to adjust. A voice giggled. "Hey, he's waking up" it said. Mike moved his hands up to his eyes and rubbed the sleep out of them, but when he looked around, his eyes widened and he jumped back with a small yelp. Surrounding him on all sides were the four androids, each of them smiling at him eerily. "W-who are you and what are you doing here?" Mike struggled to demand. He jumped again when he felt one of them place a hand on his shoulder.
Looking over, Mike found that the hand belonged to Bonnie, who grinned at him as soon as he noticed. "Don't worry, we won't bite" she told him softly. For some reason or another, Mike's heartbeat was returning to its normal pace, almost as if the words Bonnie spoke were actually soothing. "Just calm yeself now, boy" Foxy told him in a stereotypical pirate accent, "Ye had a nasty fall backstage, we had to drag yer body all the way back here" she added soon after. Looking around, Mike found that they had brought him to his office. Now he only had even more questions to ask. Mike simply sighed and slumped down, feeling like he was still in some kind of dream.
"You wanted to know who we are, right?" asked Chica with a unusually masculine voice. Mike looked up at the android and nodded slowly. "Yeah, just who are you…?" he inquired, eliciting a chuckle from behind him. The chuckling voice turned out to be Freddy's, walking over to face him with one hand across her hip and she smirked at him. "Simply put, we're the Fazbear family" she told him in a matter-of-fact kind of tone. Mike simply looked at the bear-like android, feeling incredulous about her answer. "…But…how can that be?" he breathed, still believing to be in some kind of dream.
He stood right up and looked Freddy in the eye. "How long have you four been…like this?" he questioned. "Ever since we were 'born'" responded Bonnie, forming air quotations around the word 'born'. Mike merely slumped down in his seat with a hand over his face, still trying to wake from this nightmare. It was at this time where he noticed the coffee maker was running, brewing a single cup of it as they spoke. Chica walked over to the cup and then handed it off to Mike. He didn't know whether or not he could trust them, but what he did know was that he desperately needed something to wake up, so he graciously accepted the offered cup and downed the contents right away, completely unaware of the fact that it was incredibly hot.
Mike nearly did a spit take at how his throat was nearly scalded. 'If that doesn't wake me up…' he thought as looked up, seeing that this wasn't a dream. "Uh…" Chica spoke, "It's…really hot" he said with an surprised look on his face. Foxy sighed. "This lubber really be our new guard?" she questioned nobody in particular. Freddy merely walked over and placed a hand on the fox's shoulder. "Now, Foxy, be nice, it's the poor guy's first day" she told her, making Foxy look elsewhere. Freddy then turned back to Mike, still smiling like she was in full control of the situation. "Back to what we were saying earlier, we're the Fazbear family" she said before gesturing to herself. "As you should already know, I'm Freddy, the oldest" she said before gesturing to the others, starting with Foxy. "This is my younger sister, Foxy" she introduced, "Hoy" Foxy greeted bluntly. "This is our younger brother, Chica" she introduced the chicken-modeled android, "'Sup?" he greeted with his wing/arms crossed over his chest. "And this is the youngest of the family, Bonnie" she introduced the rabbit android, whom of which was currently twiddling her index fingers. "Um…hi" she greeted timidly. Freddy then pulled in each of her 'siblings' and wrapped her arms around them for a group hug.
Mike was still trying to piece things together, or to simply get his thoughts together. For some reason, four animal-modeled androids were talking to him; each of them claiming to be a part of some secret family he didn't even realize existed. Each of them had their own unique appearances, their own personalities, and even seemed to act out in human-like ways. "There's just no way this could be real…" he breathed. He felt a hand brush up against his cheek, slightly creeped out by the warm feel of fur against his face. "Don't you worry now" spoke Freddy, "All of this is real, just like us" she said with a warm smile pointed at Mike. Without thinking, Mike grabbed hold of the metallic hand, greatly surprising Freddy in the process. The android blushed and smiled in a semi-awkward manner, subtly trying to escape the grip Mike had on her hand.
The other three androids merely looked at Mike, while the latter was simply staring right at Freddy. 'So…not only can she think and act on her own, but she can even feel and emote too?' he wondered as Freddy finally managed to get her hand back. "It…felt so real" Mike breathed absent-mindedly. Freddy merely blinked at the response, a little unsure of how to respond herself. "Well, that just happened" Chica commented bluntly. "Aye, it did" Foxy added, her hook placed against her popped hip. Bonnie merely stared right at Mike, not saying anything.
Everyone in the room was silent for a full sixty seconds before Mike spoke up again. "So…does Mr. Frits know about you, about this?" he questioned, all four of the androids beaming up right away. "You mean father?" Bonnie responded a little excited about the name being mentioned. Mike nodded, which was when Chica spoke up. "I thought he seemed really excited about something earlier" the chicken mused. "So, Mr. Frits was the one who built you then?" he questioned, the four androids all nodding. "He made all of us with his own hands" Foxy stated, a smile noticeable on her muzzle. Mike simply crossed his arms and tried to process the information. "So, all those years ago, you were like this?" he inquired, Freddy speaking up in response. "Yep, for as long as we can remember, we've always looked like this" she told him, only adding a bit to his already-confused state.
"If that's the case, then why do you wear those costumes on stage?" he asked. Freddy merely half-lidded her eyes and struck a seductive pose, Mike blushing with widened eyes as a result. "Do you really think we can just look like this on stage and not start some kind of riot?" she replied in a slightly huskier tone, standing up normally aside from a hand on her hip. Mike merely cleared his throat, pulling the brim of his hat over his face to hide his blushing. "I, uh….I guess you can't really look like that onstage or anything" he stated. "Nope" Chica added. "The costumes made it easier to appeal to the kids" Foxy stated as she spun her hook-hand around. "If that was the case, then why are all your costume genders different than your actual ones?" Mike asked, the four androids all closing their eyes and going into deep thought about it.
"I really don't know" Freddy stated, "We mostly just went with what father said" Bonnie added soon after. "I don't about my sisters, but I definitely wouldn't go against father's wishes" stated Chica. Foxy merely nodded, saying "Mhmm" as she did so. 'Okay, that's a couple of secrets I know about, now I just need to know the rest of them' Mike thought. "So, if I'm right, Mr. Frits needed a night watchman just to keep an eye on you four?" he asked, Freddy nodding. "The second he got off the phone with you, he jumped for joy. He did the same thing when you came in for your uniform" she stated. "After that, he came to talk to us around closing time, telling us to expect a new member of the family joining us soon" Chica added, a smile noticeable on his beak. "Ye be a little scrawny, but I'm sure ye'd bulk up on the job" Foxy mused, a slight giggle being heard from Bonnie.
Mike sighed, and then gave a faint smile of his own. "Well, I guess it could be worse…" he thought out-loud, the androids narrowing their eyes slightly in response to his comment. For a moment, Mike thought he had accidentally said something he shouldn't have, and considering the way the others were scowling at him, he knew right then and there that he was right. "Um…by that, I meant-" he tried to apologize before they all started laughing at him, Freddy placing a hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry about it, Mikey" she cooed, "You'll do a fine job, I'm sure" she finished with a small wink. "As long as you keep this a secret, I'm sure you can continue working here" Chica stated. "But…if ye can't keep yer big mouth shut, I could seal it up just fine" Foxy half-threatened as she brandished her hook once again. "Come on, guys, give him some slack" Freddy stated as she turned to face her siblings. "He wouldn't tell anyone about us," she turned to face Mike again, "Would you?" she questioned, a little more serious than usual. Mike simply gulped and looked up at the eldest android. "I promise-I mean-I swear on my life, I won't tell a soul" he stated with a strained grin. Freddy merely slapped his shoulder firmly, smiling at him with her eyes closed. "Well then, welcome to the Fazbear family" she stated cheerily, the others all grinning as well.
