Vincent blinked awake, surprised to not be woken by excitement and talking from Spring Bonnie. Vincent shook it off at first as he stretched a little bit of what he could, but had an uneasy feeling as normally if he woke up Spring Bonnie would wake up as well. But Spring Bonnie was strangely absent, as there was a large absence and silence from Spring Bonnie's side.
"Spring? Bud you really tired or something?" Vincent said worried about the silence of Spring Bonnie. There was no response or feeling from Spring Bonnie, sort of like the feeling someone would get from losing a limb. Vincent gulped worriedly. "Spring?" Vincent said softly with worry. There still was no response. Vincent got a bad feeling as there was just silence of the room. The feeling of true loneliness started to sink in.
"Spring? Buddy? Please talk make some kind of noise." Vincent said worriedly his eye darting around the room fearfully. He took notice of the power cord being unplugged and a bad feeling filled him as he tried to think what could have happened that required the power cord to be unplugged. Desperately, he plugged the power cord in, hoping that would restore his friend. But the absence remained.
"Damn it what happened when I blacked out." Vincent grumbled. The absence remained, leaving Vincent with ear piercing silence.
"Wow i never realized how much I enjoyed his company. What the hell happened." Vincent sighed sadly. There was still no response from Spring Bonnie, though he could feel a feeling of anger from him.
"Your back. Hey buddy." Vincent said worriedly. Spring Bonnie didn't respond, as the feeling of anger grew, along with a feeling of extreme sadness. Vincent gulped and then sighed.
"I guess i snapped again huh. I understand if you hate me." Vincent sighed sadly. Spring Bonnie stubbornly refused to respond.
"If it means anything to you. Sorry for whatever i said, I don't really have control over when i snap." Vincent said. A feeling of overwhelming anger came from Spring Bonnie's side.
"I must have said something really bad for you to be so angry at me huh." Vincent said with a weak chuckle. The absence returned, as apparently Spring Bonnie had heard enough out of him. Already missing the feeling of Spring Bonnie being there Vincent sighed sadly. "I wish i could get that under control." Vincent grumbled. The loneliness created an almost claustrophobic feeling in him, as the familiar feeling of the walls closing in on him returned. Vincent looked around the slight feeling of fear started to rise in him.
"Why am i cursed like this. I hurt those I don't want to." Vincent said shakily. The feeling just continued to rise, making him wish he could get out of the suit, more out of desperation now than just simple need to be free.
"As much as i hate doing this." Vincent sighed weakly. He focused hard, trying to push past that link between him and his body, a feat easier said than done. Eventually he could feel the release of the suit and weight of the world in general. Vincent gave a sigh of relief, feeling the utter freedom in general.
"Still always relieving but." Vincent said as he looked at his hand now ghostly looking. "Dead very dead." Vincent sighed sadly. Reluctantly he glanced back at Spring Bonnie, seeing his body fused with Spring Bonnie's, and his eyes wide and occupying the sockets of the suit. Vincent felt the feeling of dread and sadness and looked away. "I just need to walk around. He'll get over it. Hopefully." Vincent sighed. There was no familiar farewell wave from Spring Bonnie, or any movement in general.
"Be back buddy." Vincent said with a weak smile before starting to walk away. Just as he turned the corner, someone walked right through him, making him shiver.
"Never gonna get used to that." Vincent said looking back to see who it was that had walked through him. It was that cheerful man named Alex from yesterday, dressed in night guard clothes.
"Hello Hello! Hey! Nice to see ya again Spring!" Alex said cheerfully approaching Spring Bonnie, carrying a whole set of tools and a welding torch. "We're going to give you a nice makeover and clean you up. How does that sound?" Alex said cheerfully. Vincent sighed and rolled his eyes. Alex smiled more as he plugged in the welder and started up the fire.
"Alright! Let's get this party started!" Alex said cheerfully as he started welding up all the chips and cracks in Spring Bonnie.
"Least you're getting taken care of Spring." Vincent said softly. There was a small burst of flame and a yelp from Alex as Vincent could feel a pain in his shoulder.
"Sorry buddy. And whatever animal was sacrificed to make you all gory." Alex said apologetically.
Vincent chuckled a little as he walked over closer to Alex. Alex was completely unaware, all his focus on welding the cracks and avoiding burning any more of Vincent's flesh off.
Vincent tapped on Alex's shoulder and moved to the other side of him quickly. Alex jumped as the torch moved, accidentally burning more of Vincent.
"Uh dude, not while i'm working. Kinda don't want the kiddies to smell charred meat." Alex grumbled, looking behind him to see there was no one there.
"I'd bee nice if you stop burning me, Night guard." Vincent said. Alex jumped at the voice, quickly turning the torch off as he turned around. Vincent had taken a more human form that was easier for Alex to see and waved a little. Alex froze in place, not saying anything as his grip on the torch tightened.
"Oh did i scare you? Sorry." Vincent chuckled. Alex gulped.
"Uh you new here? First rule, don't sneak up on me while i have a blowtorch, please." Alex sighed. "It's just begging for someone to get hurt, and i don't want it to be me or you."
"Not really new, but to this place i suppose i could be considered new. I was here when you came in." Vincent said with a smile. "Oh trust me it'd be you to get hurt not me."
"Oh. Um, nice to meet ya. I'm Alex. In case you didn't know. Or we've already met, which in that case sorry i haven't remembered ya." Alex said, smiling weakly.
"Nice to meet you again, Alex. Only this time it's face to face." Vincent said. "Oh smile a little more you are the face of Freddy Fazbear's." Alex looked confused by this as he apparently tried to think of everyone he'd met but hadn't seen the face of.
"Wait, are you the guy leaving all those phone messages?" Alex asked suddenly, looking like he'd realized something.
"Nope, try again." Vincent chuckled.
"Oh. Cause i was about to say you said your name was Scott, and your nametag is Vincent." Alex sighed.
"I knew Scott personally. But yes i'm Vincent an um Night gaurd." Vincent said awkwardly.
"You're a night guard? I thought Jeremy and Masa were?" Alex said confused.
"It'd be a long story and then you'd know too much. But Jeremy is here even from that time. Masamune boy it's been forever since i saw the kiddo's." Vincent said.
"Yeah. Weird thing. We've all got a connection to the old place in some way. Then again, the others worked there and spent their childhood there, i'm the only one that came from the second place as a kid." Alex shrugged. "I remember Scott at least. He always came by from the other place to see me. He was really cool. Fritz thinks there's some sort of 'Fazbear curse' going around, but he's always been a bit superstitious."
"Really now? Would have never figured that. Scotty was always really cool, I actually worked with him. He wouldn't really be lying about a 'Fazbear's curse' there is one but it is kinda tricky to pick its targets so to say." Vincent said.
"Woah you knew Scott? You'd have to be super old though." Alex said, looking him over. "There is? Wait how do you know about it?"
"Yep, knew him very well. I never did tell my age and i won't." Vincent said happily. "Yep, i had it i guess i still do but not like others do." Vincent sighed.
"In that case, you aged really well." Alex said, impressed. "What do you mean?"
"I know i did." Vincent chuckled. "it's a bit um confusing and long, with way too much information for you."
"Try me." Alex chuckled.
"Trust me kid for your own sanity and safety you don't want to know." Vincent said with a smile.
"You'd be surprised." Alex chuckled.
"I'd like you too keep your view on me as it is and not changed by my past." Vincent said.
Alex gave him a skeptical look but turned back to Spring Bonnie, turning on the blow torch again.
"So you like Spring here." Vincent said squatting down beside Alex.
"Oh yes! He's great!" Alex said happily, still staying focused on welding the cracks together.
"Glad to hear i'm not the only one to have him as a favorite. Take care of him and try not to burn him kiddo." Vincent said happily standing up.
"I'd never hurt him!" Alex said, turning off the torch and reaching for the pail of yellow paint.
"Good, i'd have to get you if you ever did. He's a really good buddy of mine, even if we hit a rough patch every now and again." Vincent said softly.
"Ah it's fine. He'll be right as rain in no time." Alex said cheerfully as he started painting over the weld cracks.
"It's nice to see someone patching him up after all these years. I always meant to but never really got the chance to." Vincent sighed.
"If i didn't, who would." Alex chuckled.
"You know i've said things close to that about Spring when i worked with Scott." Vincent chuckled.
"Wouldn't say it if it wasn't true." Alex said cheerfully. "If you want you can help me out. He needs all the maintenance he can get."
"Don't know how much my knowledge of mechanics will help nowadays but i'd be glad to help you out. Trust me i know he needs it better than anyone else in the world ever will." Vincent chuckled squatting back down next to Alex.
"The most he needs is a bath. You can give him a good scrub down while i get the paint ready." Alex said cheerfully, pushing the bucket of soapy water to Vincent as he started mixing the paint. Vincent rolled up his sleeves as he took a deep breath. "Okay buddy hopefully this will help if i do what i've wanted to for a while." Vincent said as he reached into the soapy water grabbing a soaked towel. Spring Bonnie tilted his head a bit, looking at Vincent in surprise before closing his eyes and stubbornly turned his head away.
"Figures still mad at me. Sorry but let's get you washed up and looking better." Vincent said starting to scrub some of the grime off of Spring Bonnie. Spring Bonnie still didn't talk or look at him, but apparently was enjoying the wash he hadn't gotten in who knows how long.
