Surprise! just a few minutes off of a next-day chapter! I would've had this up hours ago, but I suffer from a serious condition called Lazy. Symptoms include laziness and an inability to do work efficiently and/or on schedule.

Finally, thank you, anonymous viewers, for all the guest reviews. I enjoy every review I get, and you all have been very supportive.
So thank you all, you wonderful people!
On to the story!
I was growing impatient. Gold won't let me see what he's doing, but I could tell that all he did was sit there and tinker. Well, he got up once to "go get a spare part from the back room."
And it was taking forever.
"Okay, I'm done."
He gave control of my body back to me, and I quickly took in what I saw. I was back in the security room, and it was 5 am, according to my wristwatch. I looked on my desk and was shocked at what I saw. It was a small gauntlet, black in color. On one side, it had a small screen and two buttons side-by-side directly underneath. On the opposite side, it had a small bulb pointing forward and a fairly large button below it.
I pressed and held the button on the back, and the bulb blasted forward with an amazingly powerful light, enough to cause some glare even off of the black plastic of the desk fan. I released the button and waited for my eyes to readjust.
"What's the front section do, Gold?"
"The screen will display your power level and usage. The left button implements some of my programming to flood the target device or animatronic with commands until it crashes. The right one activates as a receiver, allowing you to listen to frequencies outside your hearing range.
The screen blanked out and showed a gold triangle. A pink dot and a black dot appeared side-by-side in front of the triangle. I turned left, and the dots moved in an arc to the right.
"You added a radar, Gold?"
"And we have a reading. They're about 20 blocks north of us. We'll head out as soon as it turns-"
"Yay!" several unidentified children cheer as it turns six.
"Okay, we can go now."
I put away my uniform and we took off to find the dots.
We arrived at Coaster Land, a carnival that went out of business years ago. How stereotypical. The dots were still together, and they seemed to be emanating from the circus tent. I crept forward and peered in the tent. It was completely dark, except for a small circular area of light eminating in from an unseen spotlight.
I snuck inside the tent, shifting my head slowly from side to side to increase my ability to see in the dark. I slowly made my way towards the center of the tent. I looked around, still unable to see anything. Gold confirmed they were in the building.
Fearful of a surprise attack, I shouted "We know you're here. Come on out!"
Out if the shadows walked a small kid, though he was still in very dim lighting. He proceeded to say "Hi." He was about 4"2' and had striking blue eyes, brown hair, and startlingly rosy cheeks. He wore a pink-and-blue-striped shirt, having two silver it, a matching hat that held a propellor on top.
"Hey, kid. Are you lost?"
He nodded. "Will you be my friend?"
It was then that I noticed the slightly metallic voice, and that his skin was shiny.
"Sure," I said as I reached down to take his hand with my left. I spawned my weapon behind my back with my right. I grabbed his hand and revealed my sword. BB panicked, and I thought to myself "This is too easy."
I'm tired of being right.
As I brought down my sword towards BB's head, my wrist was grabbed from behind by a black hand. Forgetting the smaller animatronic for moment and letting go of it, I wheeled around to see the creature that had snuck up on me. I turned around and shuddered.
It was incredibly slender and had a body that was entirely black, other than some white rings on its limbs, three silver buttons on its chest, and its face. It's face was terrifying. It looked incredibly fucking creepy. And I was feeling the full effect of that right now, with Gold still remaining strangely quiet.. It leaned forwards so that its horrible clown face was right up in mine and quietly said "Boo."
I fainted.
