Seeing Things Through Their Eyes
Chapter: Nine - Darren's Return
...Day 3, 8am. Tyrone & Friends Pizza..
M J: Good morning you two, I have something to tell you both.
M.S: Oh good morning Andrew!
J.T: And what is it you want to tell us?
M J: We are to be expecting a shipment of furniture today, we're going to redecorate the Pizzeria. To make it a bit more modern.
J.T: Redecorating the Pizzeria?
M.S: I think that's an awesome idea!
J.T: You do?
M J: That's what I like to hear Maria!
M.S: Yes Jeremy, I do! The main reason is because, by updating the Pizzeria we're keeping the customers happy. And the more happy customers we have the less chance we have of being closed down for good!
J.T: I didn't think of it like that... Well in that case, yeah lets do this thing!
M J: Alright, just so you know if we were to get this shipment early we will be closing the restaurant early too.
M.S: Alright Andrew, thanks for the update!
J.T: Yeah, thanks boss man!
M J: *Chuckles* Farewell you two.
{Today was another day at the Pizzeria, Maria was happy to be back here. She made a new friend/colleague, Jeremy, and she was able to work beside her friends the Animatronics. Things couldn't be better for her! Except...
Darren. Maria was still in disbelief and shock over the fact that this man, was her uncle. A man that was suppose to be a role model for her as she grew up, a man that was suppose to support her and to teach her how to do certain things! But instead... She got a man that had killed 4 children for the fun of it!
Maria frowned, why would he do something like this? Sure he had a sucky job but that didn't give him a good reason to kill those children! She sat on the edge of Tyrone's Stage and sighed, it wasn't fair!}
Tyrone: [Activates and sees Maria] Huh? Why is Maria sat there? And... Is she? Upset? Ohh, I hope she's okay.
M.S: *Sighs* This sucks! I can't believe that he would do such a thing!
{Maria sighs before standing up and turning around to face Tyrone, to her surprise she found him to be staring right back at her! Maria blinked before standing on the small Stage and looking at Tyrone, a sad look covered her face. Showing the tiger that she was, indeed, upset.}
Tyrone: [Eyes soften in concern and cocks his head slightly] What's the matter?
M.S: Ty, it's terrible! I found out who committed those horrible murders and it turns out to be someone my family knows!
Tyrone: [Places a hand on her shoulder and smiles gently] It's not your fault Maria, you couldn't have known that sort of thing.
M.S: *Sighs and smiles* Thanks for understanding Ty, I knew I could count on you for support. *Hugs Tyrone*
Tyrone: [Blinks in surprise before hugging her back] Aww, anything for a friend.
M.S: *Smiles and pulls away* We can talk after my shift ends, okay?
Tyrone: [Smiles and nods] Of course.
J.T: Maria! There you are, I was starting to get worried about you! Are you okay?
M.S: *Looks at the inactive tiger and smiles* I am now.
J.T: Well, lets get going shall we? It's just about 9am!
M.S: Yeah, lets do it!
/11am, The second half of the show/
Lilly: Alright welcome back kids, I hope you had a nice break and had a chance to explore. But now that we're back it's time for some magic!
Coco: That's right kiddies it's that time once more, it's time for Tyrone the Magical Tiger!
Children: Tyrone! Tyrone! Tyrone! Yayyy!
Tyrone: Hello boys and girls, my name is Tyrone the Tiger. Whose ready to do some magic?
Children: We are!
Tyrone: *Chuckles* Now for our first trick, I'm going to need a volunteer. Do we have any volunteers?
M.S: *Smiles* "Why not?" *Raises hand* I'll volunteer!
J.T: Say what now?
Children: Yeah! Go Day Guard lady!
Tyrone: Maria? *Smiles* Heh, why am I surprised? Of course she'd volunteer for this kind of thing. [Offers hand] Come on up ma'am, thank you for your cooperation.
M.S: *Giggles and takes Tyrone's offered hand* It's not a problem.
J.T: [Mutters] She's crazy...
Tyrone: So for my first trick, I'm going to make our lovely volunteer here... Disappear!
Children: Ohhhhh!
M.S: "Did Tyrone just call me lovely?" I'm ready.
Tyrone: First, I put this blanket over her. *Places a blue blanket over Maria's head* Then I say the magic words.
M.S: "I wonder if this is going to be like any magic show... Where the volunteer ends up dropping into a trapdoor in the Stage floor. Only one way to find out I guess..."
Tyrone: *Ahem* [Secretly mutters unintelligible words] Hocus Pocus! Now you see her... [Says the main magic words] Now you don't!
{A blue fog suddenly erupts from the Stage, engulfing Maria completely. And by the time Tyrone pulled the blanket away... She was gone!}
Children: *Cheers and claps*
J.T: "Holy crap! He actually did it!"
/With Maria/
*Poof*
M.S: *Coughs* That... Was kinda dramatic! Now where am I?
{Maria looks around only to realise that she was in the Office, her eyes widened in surprise. Tyrone had actually teleported her to another location!}
M.S: Holy cow! He... Actually teleported me! Wow, now that's impressive!
/Back with Tyrone/
Tyrone: Thank you, thank you! Now to bring back our volunteer, are you ready?
Children: Yeah!
Tyrone: [Starts to whisper the unintelligible words] Hocus Pocus! Lets bring back the one we made disappear. [Finishes his spell] And...
{A red fog rolls onto the Stage and after a second it fades, revealing Maria back on the Stage.}
Tyrone: Tada!
Children: Yayyy!
M.S: Thank you. *Bows* We hope you enjoyed the show!
{The children cheer once more before all running off to some over location of the restaurant.}
M.S: *Turns and faces Tyrone* How did you do that?
Tyrone: [Smiles and taps his nose] A good magician never reveals his tricks.
J.T: That was crazy! Where did you go?
M.S: *Smiles* I actually ended up in the Office, it was incredible!
J.T: Wow! I didn't think Tyrone possessed such power, damn!
M.S: Yeah but like one usually says, a good magician never reveals his tricks.
{Tyrone smiles lightly before powering down, this was becoming more and more interesting!}
J.T: Yeah, I guess. Welp back to work.
M.S: *Giggles* Party-pooper!
J.T: Oi!
/2pm, After lunch break/
M.S: *Stands up and stretches* Ahh, that's better.
J.T: [Smiles] Yeah, that was a nice break. Surprisingly peaceful for once, but I ain't complaining!
M.S: *Smiles and laughs* I know what you mean! It was nice while it lasted.
J.T: [Groans playfully] Don't remind me!
M.S: Your such a drama queen Jeremy.
J.T: Oi, I am not a drama queen! I rather the term drama king!
M.S: *Giggles* Oh, well excuse me your highness. [Bows mockingly] I meant to say king!
Deliveryman: Excuse me but are you two employees here?
J.T: Yes we are.
Deliveryman: I've come here with an order for some new furniture and I was wondering if one of you could sign this paperwork.
M.S: Oh! I'm sorry sir, we weren't expecting you to come for a while! But yes of course one of us will sign it for you.
Deliveryman: Thank you ma'am.
J.T: Do you want me to sign it Maria?
M.S: No I'll do it, you attend to the audience.
{Jeremy nods and runs off to go find the megaphone.}
M.S: So, where am I to sign?
Deliveryman: Just sign at the bottom of the paper, I'll sort it out from there.
M.S: *Nods* I'm Maria by the way, it's nice to meet you. *Signs her name at the bottom of the paperwork*
Deliveryman: It's nice to meet you too Maria, I'm Lucas Holmes.
M.S: Nice to make your acquaintance Lucas. *Smiles and shakes his hand*
J.T: OKAY EVERYBODY, DUE TO AN EARLY SHIPMENT OF FURNITURE WE ARE TO CLOSE THE PIZZERIA EARLY. WORRY NOT, WE WILL LET YOU KNOW WHEN THE RESTAURANT IS OPEN AGAIN. UNTIL THEN, PLEASE GO TO THE NEAREST EXIT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION!
...
J.T: There we go, audience taken care of.
M.S: Thanks Jeremy, oh and meet Lucas. He's our deliveryman for the day.
J.T: Hi, I'm Jeremy nice to meet you Lucas.
Deliveryman: Nice to meet you too. Okay, that's the paperwork sorted. Thank you for your time.
M.S: No problem!
(Lucas leaves)
J.T: Huh, he seemed like a nice guy.
M.S: You say that like your surprised.
J.T: Nah, it's just nowadays it's kinda... You know?
M.S: What?
J.T: Most people today, well... They're kinda jerks.
M.S: *Raises an eyebrow* Oh really? *Sighs and smiles* You need to let go of the past Jeremy, people change.
J.T: [Sighs] I guess... [Smiles] Heh, but then again there's some people that never change.
M.S: Hehehe, I wonder why that is.
/4pm, Outside the Pizzeria/
M.S: Hmmmm, it's kinda strange without people being here during the day. It's so quiet, so peaceful and so...
?: Weird?
M.S: Yeah! Weird, that's... Wait a second... *Looks around* Jeremy? Is that you?
?: [Stays in the shadows] Jeremy? Me? Heh... Hehehahahaha! Nah!
M.S: Then... Who are you?
{The mysterious figure comes into the light}
M.S: *Gasps* You!
