Episode 9: Struggles of Being Called A Duck
Ah, the word duck...a term that can be used for some of the anthropomorphic animals in this world, however, there are some people who take offense to that name. And trust me, one of them will be more pissed than any of the others. For years, many have mistaken Chica for a duck...which she didn't take too kindly to. As a child, some often teased or mistook her for one, she felt so vulnerable to that word. When she moved in with Chi Chi, things got better because Chi Chi would defend her cousin from people like that and every time would beat up the people who did it on purpose but threaten the people who did it by mistake.
"Don't worry Chica, I'll never let anyone get away with calling you that." Chi Chi promised one day.
"Thank you Chi Chi, that means a lot." Chica hugged her.
Chi Chi was very overprotective of Chica, even when she didn't have to be. And now that they were in the same city again...Chi Chi would continue to protect her. One day, Foxy and Bonnie were walking around talking about the meaning of life when they heard crying.
"CHICA?" Foxy yelled.
Chica was sitting on a bench crying and the two raced over.
"CHICA WHAT HAPPENED?" Foxy sat next to her.
"Whoa what is Chi Chi doing?" Bonnie asked.
They notice Chi Chi pummeling a man in the alley behind the bench. She looked extremely pissed off and for some reason she was wearing her beak making her eyes white with blue pupils.
"DON'T YOU EVER CALL HER THAT AGAIN YOU PIECE OF SHIT!" Chi Chi broke the man's nose.
"What did he do?" Foxy asked.
"He called me a duck...on purpose!" Chica cried.
"WHY THAT LITTLE-"
Bonnie and Foxy went to confront the man who was still being beaten by Chi Chi.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS YER PROBLEM! HOW DARE YE CALL MY WIFE A DUCK!" Foxy snarled.
But the man had no words and he was too much in fear and pain. Foxy had started to foam at the mouth and Bonnie had to hold him back while Chi Chi finished.
"IF YOU EVER CALL HER THAT AGAIN..." Chi Chi takes off her beak turning her eyes black. "THIS WILL BE THE LAST FACE YOU EVER SEE!"
She then knocks the man out before putting back on the beak.
"You calm Foxy?" Bonnie asked.
"Yar, fer now." Foxy wiped the foam from his mouth.
"Why do you have your beak on?" Bonnie asked.
"Eh, I put it on every now and then, just thought I'd wear for a bit instead of always keeping it in my pocket. I'm gonna go check on Chica." Chi Chi said putting her beak away.
The three go back to Chica who had stopped crying and was just sniffing.
"You gonna be alright?" Chi Chi asked.
"I'll...be fine. I just need to go home and lay down." Chica said.
"Alright, hey look I'll come by later I got to go do a few things." Chi Chi said.
"Okay."
Chi Chi gave her a hug before leaving and gave Bonnie a peck on the cheek. Chica, Foxy and Bonnie go back to Freddy's house where Chica quickly goes upstairs while the boys huddle in the living room.
"We need to cheer her up, any ideas?" Foxy asked.
"Uh...mabye tell her a funny story?" Freddy suggested.
"She's not easily amused." Foxy said.
"Ooh, destruction of the town!" Bonnie suggested.
"Meh, we vandalized the library yesterday. Mabye we could make her some pizza." Foxy suggested.
"DON'T...GO...THERE..." Bonnie growled.
"Hey that was your fault you know." Freddy said.
"Okay then...BUMPER CARS WHOO!" Bonnie got excited.
"NO!" Foxy and Freddy shout.
"Look let's just try whatever comes to mind and mabye one of them will work." Foxy said.
"Fine."
Chica sat in her room clutching her cupcake plushy when she heard a knock at the door, she opened it to see Foxy smiling big.
"Hey Chica, I know something that will cheer you up." Foxy said.
"Foxy I don't think anything can cheer me up at this point."
"Oh yeah?"
Foxy left back to the closet across the hall while Chica looked away. When he returned, Chica saw Foxy wearing a banana suit and holding maracas.
"IT'S PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME! WHERE HE AT? WHERE HE AT? WHERE HE AT? WHERE HE AT? NOW THERE YE GO! THERE YE GO! THERE YE GO! THERE YE GO! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY!"
But Foxy fails.
"Sorry Foxy, I'm just not feeling it right now." Chica sighed.
But when she shuts the door, Foxy continues anyway.
"DO THE PEANUT BUTTER JELLY! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY WITH A BASEBALL BAT! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY WITH A BASEBALL BAT!"
A few minutes later, Foxy came back downstairs still in the banana suit.
"Nothing?" Freddy asked.
"Nope, usually that works on anyone."
"True, alright let the master show you how it's done." Bonnie cracked his knuckles.
Freddy and Foxy watched as Bonnie went upstairs...now reluctant to try anything else. Chica heard more knocking on her door and when she opened it, she saw Bonnie wearing sunglasses and smiling. Then he starts dancing to Gangnam Style with the music playing in the background. Chica just watches him dance for a minute before she throws her plushy at him. He and the music stop and he lift up the sunglasses.
"Nothing?"
Chica's response was to slam the door shut in his face. Bonnie sighed and went back downstairs.
"Well I tried." Bonnie sighed.
"Guess it's my turn to shine." Freddy straightened his bowtie and hat.
A few minutes later Chica heard yet more knocking and saw Freddy at the door. He was looking down at his phone.
"Hmm, hey Chica could you help me out here. I was looking for something that I thought would be big news."
"What big news?"
"Oh you haven't heard, it was my understanding that everyone had heard."
"Heard what?"
"FREDDY DON'T!" Bonnie and Foxy yell.
"A-well-a-bird, bird, bird, the bird is the word. A-well-a-bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word! A-well-a-bird, bird, bird, the bird is the word. A-well-a-bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word. CHICA, don't you know, about the bird, well-a-Freddy's going to tell you about the bird. A-well-a-bird, bird, b-birds the word. A-well-a-bird-SUUUUUUUR-FIIIIIIN' BIIIIIIIIIIIRD, Bbbbbbbbbbbbb *Starts spazzing out and falls to the ground* Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-
Freddy passes out on the ground.
"OH MY GOD FREDDY ARE YOU ALRIGHT?" Chica asked.
Freddy gets up and continues.
"Papa-ooma-mow-mow, papa-oomow-mow-mow, papa-ooma-mow-mow, papa-oomow-mow-mow, papa-ooma-mow-mow, papa-oomow-mow-mow!"
Chica slams the door shut hard in his face.
"Aw..." Freddy groaned.
And so for the next hour, the three tried so many ways to make Chica happy. Bonnie appeared at her door painted white and covered in polka-dots while wearing a rainbow afro wig.
"DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA CIRCUS DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA AFRO CIRCUS AFRO CIRCUS AFRO POLKA-DOT, POLKA-DOT, POLKA-DOT, AFRO!"
"Really?" Chica said.
Next was Freddy again who came with his microphone.
"We're waiting every night to finally roam and invite, newcomers to play with us, for many years we've been alone. We're forced to be still and play those same songs we've known since that day an imposter took our life away, now we're stuck here to decay."
"THIS IS AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE FREDDY! THAT NEVER HAPPENED HERE!" Chica snarled.
She shuts the door angrily. But the three didn't stop there, Foxy came back with a pirate hat and started to sing and dance.
"DO WHAT YOU WANT CAUSE A PIRATE IS FREE! YOU ARE A PIRATE! YAR HAR FIDDLE DI DEE, BEING A PIRATE IS ALRIGHT WITH ME! DO WHAT YOU WANT 'CAUSE A PIRATE IS FREE! YOU ARE A PIRATE!"
"Nice try captain." Chica faked a smirk.
Next, the boys tried to invite Chica to a hallway pillow fight.
"Come on Chica! You know you can't resist." Bonnie said.
Chica rolls her eyes and shuts the door where the three actually continue. Chica just listens as the three get a bit more violent before it changes into a fist-fight. Next, Freddy tried to play Toreador March on his squeaky nose but that failed as well. Eventually the three had given up and were downstairs.
"Well we tried everything." Freddy said.
"I think it's best just to leave her alone." Bonnie said.
Then, Foxy got one last idea and his ears perked up.
"Swiggity swooty, I've got it." Foxy said.
He ran into the kitchen to make a pizza.
"But we already established that it may not work." Freddy said.
"That's not all I'm giving her." Foxy smirked.
Freddy and Bonnie realized what he meant.
"Freddy, got any spare earmuffs?"
Chica was lying down after all the failed attempts and thought they were done. They would never understand how much it hurt to be called a duck. As she was about to get some sleep, she heard another knock. Groaning, she got up and opened the door to see Foxy holding a pizza with a large smile.
"Foxy, not even pizza will help me." Chica sighed.
"Aye, that's not all I brought." Foxy said.
He bounced his eyebrows as a hint, Chica began to blush and Foxy made a low growl before Chica pulled him inside and locked the door. An hour later, Chi Chi arrived to find only Freddy and Bonnie downstairs.
"How's Chica?" Chi Chi asked.
"Uh...I think she got better pretty quickly." Freddy said.
"Yeah...you should go up there." Bonnie smirked.
She went upstairs and heard giggling. She knocked on the door.
"Am I interrupting something?" Chi Chi asked.
"Nah, come in." Foxy said.
Chi Chi rolled her eyes knowing exactly what they had been doing and opened the door to find the two eating the pizza Foxy had made.
"Hey Chi Chi, care for a slice?" Chica asked.
"Sure."
Chi Chi sat with the two on the bed and Foxy explained all the methods they tried to use to cheer up Chica.
"Strange, usually you like it when he dances with the banana suit." Chi Chi said.
"Eh, I needed more than that this time. That guy really hurt my feelings...mabye next time that happens I'll handle it myself." Chica said.
"What are the chances of that happening?" Foxy chuckled.
The next day, Nette came over after hearing about what happened yesterday, he actually thought it was funny.
"Wow...didn't know people actually called her that. I mean, I can see why...but-"
"WHAT?"
Nette jumped when he heard Chica and Chi Chi peering out from the kitchen. Bonnie and Freddy looked horrified, luckily Foxy wasn't there at the time. Nette covered his mouth in horror as the girls came over.
"WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN PUPPET?" Chica snarled.
"Uh...that came out wrong." Nette said.
"Like hell it did. And just what can you see that makes her a duck?"
"Uh...I...it was a mistake I swear. I just thought that mabye is was her beak. I'm sorry!"
"YOU SHOULDN'T BE WONDERING THAT AT ALL!" Chica yelled.
"You're not gonna go into a long sad mood again are you?" Bonnie asked.
"Actually, I think I found a new solution." Chica cracked her feathered knuckles.
"Uh-oh." Nette gulped.
Chi Chi then takes her beak out of her pocket and gives it to Bonnie.
"Bonnie, hold...my...beak..."
Bonnie takes the beak before the girls tackle Nette and beat him up.
REMEMBER KIDS...NEVER CALL CHICA A DUCK, OR BUTTS WILL BE KICKED!
"Lesson learned...OW...NO WAIT NOT THE FACE! NOT THE FACE! OOF!" Nette whined.
End of episode 9.
Yep, Nette learned a lesson here.
Marionette: I SAID I WAS SORRY!
Me: I don't think anyone is gonna be calling her a duck again, unless they really want Chica and Chi Chi to hurt them. I know I wouldn't.
Toy Chica: Yeah because we know you wouldn't dare.
Chica: Go ahead and say it boy.
Me: Uh...no thanks. Because you're a chicken...animal-wise not emotion-wise.
Chica: Thank you.
Toy Chica: I still want to hit somebody again.
Me: *Pats cheek* Fine go ahead.
*Toy Chica swings but I move at the last minute making her hit Chica*
Chica: OW! Girl you are so asking for it.
Toy Chica: *Smirks* Heh, you wouldn't even have a chance.
Me: *Jumps out of the way as Chica tackles Toy Chica* OKAY EVERYONE I GOT TO BREAK THIS UP! STAY TUNED FOR MORE! GIRLS KNOCK IT OFF!
Marionette: CATFIGHT! CATFIGHT! CATFIGHT!
Foxy: I HEARD WHAT YE SAID NETTE!
Marionette: AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
