Being Human
I don't own Five Nights at Freddy's. Scott Cawthon does.
Summary: Mike checks the back room like Phone Guy asked. What he finds…is something that has to be seen to be believed.
Warnings: slight gore, dark themes, swearing, death frequently mentioned/discussed.
Notes: A story told in drabbles rather than full chapters.

His stomach empty and his throat burning, Mike finally lifted his head, took a breath, then looked over his shoulder at Phone Guy. The man hadn't spoken again; he was rotating his new paw in front of his face, analysing the movements. How traumatising an experience this must be for a person, to have their own corpse inside of them. To take on a new body - an intended substitute for the very thing that had taken part in their murder. Mike couldn't even begin to imagine how that must've felt. All that Phone Guy had lost…and here Mike was, losing nothing. It just wasn't fair.
Mike swallowed thickly, wiped his mouth, then approached the dead man carefully. Phone Guy looked up at him. Mike could practically see tears. "…Can you stand…?"
"I'm not sure…Junior, I don't know how to do this. I don't know how to live like this. How I can live here…"
"…You're not, Phone Guy. You're going to come home with me."
