The family filed out of the front doors. They had stayed later to help clean up. Vincent watched from a not so far off distance. He leaned on the wall, his arms crossed. Vincent's gray eyes stared at the family disapprovingly.

The family had twelve members. The mother, the father, and ten children. Each of the children, no matter how old, had their birthday party at Freddy's. Vincent figured it was because they didn't have enough money to afford a better place for a birthday. And Freddy's was the cheapest place to rent out in the state. After every birthday, the father and older children would stay to help clean up. Vincent, a rather indepentant individual, didn't really like his special alone time being shared with a man ten years older than him and half the man's family. At. he hated it when he was alive.

Now it didn't really matter. They had hired a new janitor- who Vincent also hated.

Vincent finally got bored of watching the new janitor trying to make the father and children leave, and fazed through the hall to take a short cut to the backroom. Vincent's ablity to pass through walls baffled Spring. He couldn't. So why could Vincent? Just another mystery that only Spring cared about.

Vincent appeared just outside of the backroom. He opened the door and bumped into Spring, falling back. "Whoa. Damnit Bonbon!" He said aggitatedly. Vincent had finally gone back to being himself after seeing his wife and daughter. Flirty, immature and irritated by almost everything.

Spring yelped. "Oh, whoa, sorry Vince. Well see ya!" He said, rushing past the ghost and down the hall. Vincent watched him go with wide, curious eyes. He shrugged it off and walked into the back room.

Spring, however, continued down the hall. He was late for a meeting with the other bonnies. he promised his "little brothers" that he would spend some time with them today. The golden rabbit found the two sitting together on the stage. Bonnie was tuning his guitar and trying to explain how it worked to Toy Bonnie. Toy Bonnie was staring at his hand mirror dismissively, only saying the occasional "mhm" and "go on".

Bonnie stopped talking when Spring approached. He played his guitar beside him and smiled. Spring noticed it was bright red and shaped like a V. He felt a sudden wave of nostalgia. It looked just like his.

"Hi Spring!" Bonnie greeted. Toy Bonnie looked up, finally noticing the presents of the third rabbit.

"Oh, Hello Springtr- Spring." The blue rabbit sighed before catching himself. Spring smiled understandingly. He had no doubt that Freddy was spreading the name like wildfire. That mean bear would do anything to get Spring and Vince back in the basement. Spring chuckled to himself, imagining Freddy constantly trying to get Vincent to stay in the basement. Sometimes, Spring couldn't help but think of the ghost as a brother. His presents was welcome after all. Although he could be obnoxious, it was nice to know someone else was getting used to this new style of life.

"What's so funny?" Bonnie questioned.

Spring looked down, realizing that the purple rabbit had jumped down from the stage to stand beside him. He smiled. "Nothing. Just thinking about something."

Bonnie nodded in response. Toy Bonnie, who now had his mirror beside Bonnie's guitar, raised an eyebrow. Spring stared at the shiny blue rabbit, confused. He leaned down to Bonnie. "So...is T-Bon and girl or...?"

"A boy." Bonnie said, a little too loud. Toy Bonnie scowled. Spring looked away awkwardly. His silver eyes, the same shade as Vincent's now, stared blankly. Bonnie spoke again. "Hey, Spring?"

"Yeah?"

"Can you tell us a story about the...well, what it was like when you and Goldy ran the pizzeria?" Bonnie asked innocently.

Spring's breath caught in his throat. For some reason, he hadn't expect any of the new animatronics to ask him anything like that. Then again, he didn't talk with the new animatronics very much. No one liked being around Vincent. Thus, no one liked being around Spring. Except for Fredbear. Although the old bear would usually only talk with him for a few minutes. Compared to the hours they used to spend chatting, those few minutes were only a few seconds.

The golden rabbit lightly shook his head, turning his attention back to Bonnie. "Well, I can tell you it was way different from how it is now." He started, memories starting to play back in his head. "Their was just me and Fred back then. After a while, new animatronics started coming in. First their was Marionette. Then the toys." he looked at Toy Bonnie, who looked away, embarrassed. "I barely remember what happened. All I remember is being happy..." His voice trailed off.

Toy Bonnie nodded in understanding. He elbowed Bonnie when the purple rabbit began to whine in protest. Spring looked down at his "brothers." he smiled. "You know, Fred remembers more then me I bet. He tells you stories all the time, right?"

Toy Bonnie grunted. "Not as much these days. He's told us most of them."

Spring thought for a moment. "Did he tell you about what Freddy was like as a new animatronic?" Both Bonnie's looked up, surprised. It seemed neither of them had. Spring smirked. He leaned closer as if he was telling a secret. "So, you know that Bonnie and his group's models were already beginning way before T-Bon's, right?"

Both smaller rabbits nodded. "Yeah. But we were finished first."

"Mhm. You wanna know why?" Both Bonnie's remained silent, giving Spring a signal to continue. "Bonnie's group was technically finished first. But their where a hope bunch of glitches and other things. One of Freddy's eyes wasn't moving like it should. Bonnie was supposed to have a scanner in his face like the Toy's but it got all messed up. Chica's arms didn't bend. And Foxy was just a huge mess."

On the other side of the room, Foxy growled defensively from pirate's cove. "I heard that!" He said, sticking his head outside the dark violet curtain. Spring chuckled then continued.

"None of them really remember."

"I don't." Bonnie said with an innocent tone. Spring nodded.

"Anyway, before the humans started fixing you guys me and Fred would spend time with you after hours. You where supposed to be our replacements. We were getting old after all. We where both willing to retire and give the pizzeria ownership to Freddy. The only problem was he was a needy brat."

Spring looked up for just a moment and noticed Foxy had yet to retreat back to his dark, curtained off stage. He was lower now, possibly sitting down on his stage. Spring stared for a moment then continued. "he would follow us around, never letting us leave him alone for a second. He was especially clingy to Fred. Figures. You know, those two where always kinda like brothers."

"Like us!" Bonnie chirped joyfully.

"Yeah. Like us." Spring smiled warmly at the two smaller brothers. he hadn't noticed it before, but all three had a rather similar design. A rabbit figure with tall ears that cringle down at the top. Bow ties. And a friendly face.

"Wait, where's plush?" Spring looked around. Had he seriously forgotten about the fourth rabbit brother? What kind of big brother was he?

"I'm right here." Came a small, slightly hoarse voice. Plush walked out from behind Toy Bonnie's leg. Spring sighed in relief.

"Oh, right. Sorry." He said. Plush smiled in response.

"It's okay, big brother. I am pretty small. Please tell us more stories."

Bonnie leaned down and picked Plush up then sat down and put Plush in his lap. "yeah, tell us another story."

Toy Bonnie nodded. "We still have some time to kill before the pizzeria opens. A few more won't hurt."

By the end of the night, Spring had half the animatronics, including Vincent, sitting around him. They listened to his stories. Fredbear sat beside him, correcting him if nessassary or throwing in extra details.

So this is what it's like to have a family.

Vinny got character development, so I threw in some for Spring too. I'm very content with this chapter. Sorry it took so long. I hate school! I think this one is actually longer than usual.
