It had been several months since Halloween had passed in the pizzeria. The animatronics' progress seemed to heavily increase with each of the characters bonding with the children more and more within each day. They seemed to go along with their likes and dislikes gathered but still did not have a preference when it came to children.

This was highly noted when the band played a song for handicapped child awhile ago. They still showed the same love they had for them as they did with the rest of the children. Their memory storage seemed to rapidly increase, too, since they could remember the child's name and when the exact date they had arrived at the pizzeria. This was heavily noted among the employees and they decided to ask the animatronics a few questions about the day before they had shut them down during the night.

This, of course, gave them interesting results. Freddy seemed to have the best memory on remembering what songs they had played during the day and of the children he talked to. Chica best remembered the children she had served pizza to and of their favorite toppings while Bonnie could describe the children's facial features when they were on stage. He seemed to note that they were happy and excited, which was very surprising among the employees because it showed that the animatronics were starting to store facial recognition within their memory.

Fazbear got notified of this and seemed hyped of the animatronics' progress. He hadn't been included much in the research but told his workers to continue monitoring them because he had something planned once they reached a certain point within their progress. None of the employees were told what his plan was but they continued to do what they were told; each of them individually weary because of how smart the animatronics were getting.

But, pizzeria-wise, everything remained as it was on a normal day. The prizes were still a hit, Pirate Foxy's Terrific Adventure was still highlighted on Mondays and Thursdays, and the profits continued to increasingly rise. Birthday parties still went on in the place but it seemed that everyone wanted to schedule a party every day; making the schedule a bit crammed as a waiting list had to be made.

Since of the rapid increase in profits, the pizzeria improved heavily. The characters had been painted on the walls by professional artists as more games were added in the Game Area. A few more prizes had been added such as shirts and Freddy-related board games. The pizzeria had closed down for a day since the employees had gotten together and bathed the animatronics. They also repaired and added a few improvements to them so that they were able to function better.

The animatronics' movements seemed a lot smoother as breakdowns had been decreased. They happened very infrequently and, even by then, it wouldn't take long for them to be repaired. Overall, it gave the children and families a greater visit when they came to the pizzeria. They got plenty of positive reviews and gained a lot of recognition within the town. Everyone started suggesting for Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria to be a franchise, but Fazbear had yet to respond to those requests.

The employees were relieved he hadn't responded. None of them could bare the idea of having duplicates of those machines at all.

The next main activity the pizzeria had planned was for Easter. Once April hit, the building had Spring-themed decorations lined across the walls and rooms. The place was brighter than usual, but still remained crowded and busy like it normally was. They even placed a Spring deal among the menu; giving the customers a free pizza when they ordered 2.

The adults seemed to grow more fond of the place(probably because of the discounts), but they still were a bit weary when it came to the animatronics. It seemed that the animatronics' increase in intellect was obvious to them because the robots were able to interact with anyone regardless of age.

One of the employees recalled Chica having a conversation with an adult as she asked about their newborn child. The employee monitored their conversation, of course, but no negative notes were taken. All the animatronic seemed to do was ask for the child's name as she said "Hi" and left. It may have been a subtle thing but certainly left a mark to the employees on the animatronics' communication abilities.

Today had been no different. It was currently April 5th, better known as Easter Day. The pizzeria was currently hosting an Egg Hunt activity that would be taking place in the whole pizzeria. Since many families weren't there because of a holiday, not many children had been there that day. There were still plenty, oh yes, but it wasn't that crowded. At least not how it usually was on a regular day.

The animatronics were currently together on stage, including Foxy, as they prepared the children for the Egg Hunt that took place within an hour from now. It wasn't a huge crowd they were working with, so the room was mainly silent besides of their voices heard from the speakers.

Chica was currently handing out Easter baskets to the children as the other animatronics sat on stage; interacting with the ones who had already retrieved theirs. They were currently going over the rules like they had been for the past half hour.

"Has there been anything we haven't been over?" Freddy asked as he looked at the audience before him, who stared at him attentively. Some of the children raised their hands. He called on one in the back.

"What if you run into an egg with someone else at the same time?" They asked.

"Easy," Freddy responded. "You play rock, paper, scissors. Whoever wins get the egg. If it's a tie, you play again until someone wins. If there are three or more of you, all of you play until you get a winner."

One child raised their hand in the front. Bonnie called on them.

"How long is the hunt?"

"There are over 100 eggs scattered in the building," Bonnie responded. "So it'll take awhile for it to be over. It'll go on for about an hour because some other children may come in late."

The employees that were sitting to the side took some notes. The children didn't mind them as they continued to raise their hands.

"Yes, lad?" Foxy asked as he called one in the middle. They cleared their throat.

"What is the prize if we collect the most eggs?"

"If ye' 'appen to be th' winner o' th' hunt when it's over, ye'll be gettin' any prize from th' prize stand upon yer' wish," Foxy responded as he adjusted himself on the stage. "Ye'll also get a free pizza n' 100 tokens."

The children's eyes widened in excitement. Immediately, more hands were raised.

One hand was currently flapping in the air as the child stood on their feet. Chica called on them in order to get them to settle down.

"What were the 'special' eggs that you were talking about earlier?" She asked as she tilted her head in curiosity.

"I'm glad you remember that, Casey!" Chica exclaimed as she looked at the other animatronics. "Out of the 100, there are only 20 'special' eggs. These eggs have us painted on them! There are 5 copies of each of us individually that you can find! These eggs are worth more points."

The children started to squirm in their spots; obviously excited for the hunt to begin. Another child raised their hand in the front as Freddy called on them.

"Do we get to keep the eggs?" They asked. Freddy chuckled.

"Of course you do! We also recommend that you take a picture with your parents holding your eggs at the end of the hunt just so you can keep the memories."

One child raised their hand in the back. Foxy called on them.

"How many points is a regular egg worth?"

"A regular egg is worth 5 points," Foxy responded as he leaned a bit forwards. "Th' special eggs are worth 20. We be countin' your points at th' end o' th' hunt n' whoever has th' most wins."

Another child raised their hand. Bonnie called on them.

"How many winners are there?"

"Three," Bonnie responded. "There's first place, second place, and third place. So only 3 of you guys will be winners today."

Chica called on one of the children in the back. They asked, "So only the winners get a prize?"

"Of course not," Chica responded as she flattened her bib. "Everyone will be getting a goody bag for participating and trying! You even get to keep the eggs. So, technically, everyone is a winner!"

The children smiled at this. The animatronics noticed that all the hands went down.

"Just remember, guys," Freddy said as he stood; helping Chica up beside him. "Be nice and don't push or hurt anyone else. I guarantee that all of you will have at least 1 egg by the end of the hunt. And if you don't, we'll give you one!"

The children's smiles went wider as they all squirmed in their spots; even more excited for the hunt to begin. Foxy looked at the employees to the side.

"How long 'til it starts?"

"5 minutes," One of the employees responded; not glancing up from their notes to look at him. Foxy smiled as he looked back at the audience.

"That means things are just 'bout ready! Everyone 'ave a basket?"

All the children nodded their heads as they held theirs in the air. He smiled.

"Great! Does anyone 'ave anymore questions before we begin?"

The children glanced at each other as they looked for someone to raise their hand. After a few seconds of waiting, the animatronics glanced at each other.

"Everyone knows the rules, right?" Freddy asked as he looked at them.

"Right," They responded in unison.

"Okay, get ready..."

The children all turned around as they naturally made a line next to each other. The employees took note of this.

"Get set..."

The children squirmed in their spots; looking at the person next to them in excitement.

Freddy exclaimed, "GO!"

With that, the children then immediately started running to the rest of the pizzeria as they all searched for eggs. The animatronics blinked in surprise.

"They really were excited, weren't they?" Freddy asked as he observed them; watching as children rapidly picked up eggs within their sight as they darted into the other rooms. The employees got out of their seats as they disappeared into another room; leaving the animatronics alone on stage.

The robots continued to watch the children search in the rest of the building. Chica blinked in surprise.

"Wow, look at them go!"

Foxy watched as children's figures flashed in one room then headed to another. He blinked.

"They're almost movin' as fast as me..."

"You do move fast," Bonnie commented as he glanced at him. "Speaking of which, why aren't you off running with them now?"

"We can't help 'em, remember?" Foxy asked as he gave him a look. Bonnie nodded

"Oh, I know. I just figured you'd be running around for no pointless reason like how you always do."

"Shut it," Foxy snapped. "And ye' be speakin' for yerself! I watch ye' tune yer' fake guitar. It's not foolin' anyone, ye' know!"

"Guys, guys," Freddy interrupted as he stepped between them. "Be on your best behavior today, okay?"

He then motioned up towards the ceiling; getting them all to look. A camera was placed in the corner and was pointed towards them. They immediately looked back at each other.

"Besides," He said as he looked back at them. "Some of these children are on their break and they chose to came here today rather than spend the day at home with their families. We should be grateful."

"I guess you're right," Bonnie huffed as he turned back to watch at the children. "But it just gets...tiring, y'know?"

"I know it does," Freddy said as he pat him on the back. "But we're not doing this for ourselves. We're doing it for the children. That's what we're programmed for, remember?"

"Yeah..." Bonnie said as his purple eyes traveled to the floor. Freddy removed his hand as he watched the children search under the tables across from them.

"I think it's fun," Chica said in an uplifting tone. "I mean, look at their smiles! They're having such a great time! Shouldn't we as well?"

"Yer' absolutely right, lass," Foxy said as he smiled, turning to her. "If we're goin' to be doin' this fer' awhile, we better make th' most o' it n' 'ave fun!"

"Glad to see you guys are gaining more confidence," Freddy said as he crossed his metal arms; watching the children searching under the seats. The animatronics continued to watch for awhile before a child ran up to the stage.

"Chica, Chica! I found a special egg with you on it!" They exclaimed as they bounced up and down excitedly; holding the egg up so she can see.

"Good job!" She exclaimed as she gave him a thumbs up. "See if you could find another one!"

The child nodded before running off into Pirate Cove. Freddy turned to Foxy.

"Say, why did they put you in here? You'd be fine standing in Pirate Cove for an hour, right?"

"Beats me," The fox shrugged. Freddy shook it off as he continued to watch as the other animatronics joined him.

About an hour later, an announcement came out from the sneakers as it stated that the hunt was now over. Children started to pile into the room the animatronics were in as they sat in front of the stage with their baskets beside them. All of them looked as if they were pleased with themselves; some having their baskets full as others were halfway.

Needless to say, they all looked as if they had fun.

One of the employees came out from the back room and started to go through the rooms; searching for any child that was still hunting. He only came back with one that took a seat in the back and had stood beside the stage. Freddy clasped his metal hands together.

"Did everyone have a fun time?"

All the children cheered as they nodded. The animatronics smiled at each other.

"Great to hear," Freddy said as he looked around. "And all you did a wonderful job! Is there anyone who did not get an egg whatsoever during the hunt?"

A couple of children raised their hands; who looked a bit saddened at the fact that they didn't. Freddy gave them a smile.

"Come on up, guys!"

The children then complied as they stood and had walked in front of the stage. Foxy sat down as he held a couple of eggs; signaling for them to come over.

When they did, Foxy dunked about 5 eggs into each of their baskets and gave them a few chocolate coins while he was at it. The children thanked him before returning to their spots; clearly happy that they had received something.

Foxy then stood as he put the eggs away. Freddy looked around in the crowd.

"Anyone else?"

Silence returned to him as no one had raised their hands. He smiled.

"Great! Now, I'm going to need all of you to count your eggs. Remember, a regular egg is worth 5 points while a special egg is worth 20. Once you have your total, write it down as well as your first and last name on the piece of paper that is going to be passed around. We will be checking the 3 with the highest number, so don't give yourself more than you already have, alright?"

The children nodded as they got the eggs out from their baskets and had started counting. Some of the younger children had to go up to the stage and ask for theirs to be counted, in which the employees took care of and had written their name and total. The animatronics watched; eager to know which one of the children would win.

The employees waited a couple of minutes before passing around the paper in the crowd. The children wrote their total points and of their name on it before passing it to the next person who was done. Before any of them knew it, they all had naturally worked together until the paper had been filled. A child in the back ran up to an employee to give them the paper once they were finished.

"Did anyone not write their total?" Freddy asked as he looked around. After seeing no one raising their hand for a couple of seconds, the bear smiled.

"Great! We'll now be checking the list and will call out the winners."

He then turned to the employees, who nodded as they went down in the list. After a few minutes of checking, an employee called out: "Amelia Deliheart, Emily Spear, and Jacob Clark."

The children looked around, only to have 3 children stand up and walk over to them with their baskets. The employees then checked each of theirs individually and had turned back to Freddy, giving him a nod.

"Well, congratulations, you guys!" Freddy said as he gave them a smile. "You're our winners! Can everyone give them an applause?"

The children then cheered as they all clapped; clearly happy for the winners. The three looked a bit flustered but still excited to get their prizes. Freddy gave a nod to Foxy, who rolled his eyes as he collected three cups of tokens. He then walked over to the children and each gave them a cup, which had a coupon inside giving them the free pizza.

"Now all three of ye' can head over to th' prize stand and choose which one ye' want for free. Keep in mind ye' only 'ave one, so choose wisely, mates!"

The children then nodded as they all ran over to the prize stand. Foxy returned back to the stage as Freddy faced the rest of the children.

"We'll now be giving you guys goody bags like we promised! Get into a straight line and you'll get yours, alright?"

The children nodded as they immediately lined up in front of the stage. Foxy was the one to hand the goody bags out; giving each child one as they all left to run off and play games or eat pizza. It took awhile until he reached the last child, whom had immediately looked into the bag upon receiving it.

The child pulled out a chocolate bunny with widened eyes as he found more treats inside of the bag. He also pulled out a plastic egg that had a coupon inside of it as well as a miniature piece of chocolate.

He then hugged Foxy; catching the animatronics a bit off guard as he leaned backwards on the stage upon impact.

"Thank you!"

The fox chuckled as he patted him on the back. "Anytime, lad."

The child smiled before running off to the tables. The animatronics watched his figure disappear in silence.

"We did really good t'day," Foxy said with a smile as he immediately stood; turning on his metal heel to look at the others. Freddy smiled as he looked at him.

"We really did, didn't we?"

A/N:
