Hey everybody, it's betabug01 here! Back with a new instalment of 'What We Have In Common.' So, here we are. Chapter 14. This chapter is one that I've had in the works for longer than any other chapter. I've been planning this since...basically the beginning of the story and I'm super excited to push this one out. This is the first time in the story where I've lost track of time writing a chapter, and hopefully the reason for that will be apparent to all of you as you read it. This chapter has had, in my opinion, the most thought put into it out of every other chapter I've written, and I certainly hope you enjoy it as much as your enjoying your summer off...
Unless your TheEzyGuy00. Then your probably already back in school, in which case, hope your enjoying school.
And to anyone asking "Why did this happen like this?" don't worry, that will all be explained in the next chapter. But that's that, and this isn't that. It's this. So without further a due, cue the disclaimer and let's get this show on the road!

"As you wish...Vixey." the mysterious voice replied. An intense power began to circle throughout room, as if something was trying to make it's presents clear. Then suddenly, much to the surprise of all the animatronics, a large, shadowy figure began to seemingly rise from the floor. Bon, who was most terrified by the appearance of the ghostly shadow, hugged Bonnie's midsection tightly for comfort.
"G-Golden..." Freddy stammered. When the black mass had fully risen out of the floor, it began to glow brightly, which made everyone shield their eyes. Colour began to replace the shadow's blackness, and a figure could just barely be seen among the light. At last, the blinding light faded. One by one, the animatronics unveiled their eyes, but they all recoiled at what they saw. Standing in front of them was a yellow bear animatronic, about the size of Freddy. It wore a black top hat and matching black bow tie. But instead of the eyes of a normal animatronic, it's were very dark, with two white pupils that were almost soul piercing.
"Wh-Who are you...?" Fred asked, trying not to show any fear.
"Name's are for friends, little bear." The animatronic said in a deep, intimidating voice. "But you may call me...Golden Freddy."
"What do you want, Gold." Freddy asked, sternly. "I thought I made it very clear that you have no business being here." The yellow bear smirked. "Oh, on the contrary Freddy bear. I do have business here. Unfinished business no less."
"W-Wait." Fred cut in. "You guys know each other?"
"Oh, did Freddy never tell you about me? Oh, tisk-tisk, Freddy. How rude of you. Yes, we know each other very well. Almost too well. Isn't that right, brother?"
"I told you to never call me that, Gold. You're no brother of mine." Freddy snapped. "You're a dis-"
"Disgrace?" the bear finished. Freddy couldn't help but feel a little put off by this. "Yes, yes. I believe we've been through this before. And I also believe that you know why I'm here." Freddy didn't break eye contact for a second.
"You're right. I do. Well, I'm right here Gold. Come and get me."
"Oh, no, no, no, my brown furred friend." the yellow animatronic laughed, waging his finger from side to side. "It was never you I was after...It was them." The bear pointed over at Bonnie and Bon, who were most surprised.
"U-Us...? But, why?" Bonnie asked. "What'd we do to you?"
"That," Golden Freddy replied. "is none of your business. Let's just say you've taken something that belongs to me..." The bear looked away for a moment.
Never mind...
"...and I'm taking it back. By force..." Bonnie and Bon exchanged confused and worried glances.
"B-But...that's impossible." Bonnie said. "We've never even met you before, let alone-"
"Silence!" Golden Freddy growled. His patience was starting to dwindle. "I've waited too long for the day when I get to destroy you lousy rats, and I will not wait any longer! I even had to dispose of that wretched puppet to get here." Bon, Chi, Fred, Vix and Balloon Boy all froze stiff.
Wretched...Puppet!
"Mari!" Fred cried. "What have you done with him?!" The golden bear laughed.
"Ah, yes...him. Allow me to show you." He held out his hand in front of him. Within the blink of an eye, Mari's leg appeared in his hand, with the rest of his body dangling down.
"M-Mari!" Bon cried in horror. The puppets mask was cracked and his body was completely limp.
"This, is what happens when you try to defy me." the bear said, haphazardly tossing Mari's unconscious body to the floor. "Now, I'm going to give you two options. Either you hand the two bunnies over to me...or end up like this useless puppet over here." Bonnie and Bon quivered, Bon much more so. Just the word 'useless' was enough to make her stand on end, but the fact that this bear wanted to...
*gulp*
...kill her and Bonnie, made things all the more scary. Small tears began to well up in her eyes for the second time that night, and she hugged onto Bonnie a little tighter. Bonnie hugged her back, not just for her comfort, but for his own as well. Would Freddy really hand them over? For a moment, he thought so.
"Well," Golden Freddy asked. "what's it gonna be? Hand over the rats, or end up in the scrap heap on the other end of town?"
"None of the above!" Fred yelled, taking a step forward. "You think I'm afraid of you just because of what you did to Mari? I don't care if you break me to bits, I won't allow you to hurt Bon, or Bonnie...or anyone else!"
"Yeah!" A chorus of cheers erupted from the other animatronics. Bon and Bonnie smiled a little. Maybe there was hope. Golden Freddy however, seemed unfazed. In fact, he began to smirk. His smirk then turned into a small chuckle, which then turned into an unsettling laugh.
"You really think you can beat me? You obviously have no idea of what I'm capable of. For the past week, I've been playing you all like puppets on strings. Thought it would be a good way to vent some anger." Fred raised an eyebrow.
"Wh-What do you mean?"
"Well, let me put it this way. Have any of you had any incidents with...flower, recently?" Chi nearly felt her heart stop at hearing these words.
"You mean...you made that flower fall on me?" she asked, her face beginning to feel hot.
"You could say that. You could also say I...played with your emotions...a little..."
"And you made me do those awful things to Bon...?" Chi asked, feeling an immense amount of anger building up inside.
"Ch-Chi," Fred asked, taking a step back. "are you feeling okay?" The birds face was more red than yellow at this point, and the pupils in her blackened eyes began to burn white hot.
"Oh, I wouldn't go that far. I just gave you a little push..." That was all Chi needed to push her over the edge.
"Why I otta'..." Chi snarled as she charged at the golden bear with the intent of turning his fur into a new rug. But before she could reach him, Freddy grabbed her arms and pulled her back, causing the bird to kick and struggle in anger. "Just wait 'till I get my hands on you! I'll break you into a million pieces! Freddy, let me go!" she yelled as she tried to break free from the bear's grasp.
"Ch-Chi, no. You're gonna get yourself killed trying to fight him."
"And that's just a taste of what I can do." Golden Freddy said, smugly.
"That be a fine trick, ye' scurve." Foxy growled, stepping up. "But even with all yer fancy tricks, do ye' really think ye' can fight off all o' us. If my math be correct, an' it usually is, there be nine o' us, and one of yerself. I think ye' be a bit over yer 'ead 'ere, matey." Golden Freddy didn't seemed the least bit concerned by Foxy's words.
"Very true, Foxy. Very true. There are more of you than there are of me. So how about you help me even the odds?" Golden Freddy said, putting his hand out to the group.
"Wait, wha-" But before Foxy, or any of the other animatronics besides Bonnie and Bon knew it, a loud, ear piercing screech was ringing in the ears.
"Wh-What's that awful noise?!" Chi asked as she covered her ears, trying to block it out.
"V-Vixey, make it stop!" Balloon Boy cried. The sound was absolutely unbearable. Bon and Bonnie looked around in confusion. They couldn't hear anything. And with the size of their ears, you'd think they'd at least hear something, right?
"G-Guys!" Bon cried. She raced over to Fred, who was holding his head and shaking violently. "Fred, what's the matter?" Bonnie ran over to Freddy.
"Freddy, you okay?" Then, with the snap of Golden Freddy's figures, the two bears opened their eyes. Bonnie and Bon recoiled. They had blackened eyes, but instead of white pupils, theirs where bright yellow. Their faces were blank, almost zombie like. The two bunnies looked at the others. One by one, they opened their eyes and dawned the same zombie like state that Freddy and Fred had. At the flick of Golden Freddy's wrist, they all turned sanctimoniously to face Bon and Bonnie, who were standing in the middle of the crowd.
"Impressed, you two? Until now have I been able to fully control other animatronics." Golden Freddy said, grandly.
"Wh-What did you do to them?" Bonnie asked, a mixture of anger and fear in his voice.
"Oh, I only took over their minds. Nothing too serious."
"B-But...why? Why are you doing this?" Bon asked.
"Because..." The yellow bear paused for a moment. "I want you to feel the same pain she had to suffer all those years ago." he muttered. "Now," he commanded. "destroy those bunnies!" Bonnie gulped as the animatronics he once called his friends turned and readied to pounce on him and Bon. Now was the time to think fast.
"C-C'mon!" he yelled, grabbing Bon's hand. Before the bright blue bunny had a chance to say anything, she was quiet literally dragged between Chi and Freddy, past Golden Freddy and down the dark hall that lead to the party rooms, disappearing from sight.
"After them. Bring them to me." Golden Freddy commanded. The zombie like animatronics blindly nodded and began to give chase.
The two bunnies nearly flew down the hallway as they tried to escape Golden Freddy's army. "B-Bonnie, where are we going?" Bon asked as the purple bunny dragged her along.
"No idea. All I know is that that bear wants us dead, and he's not pulling any punches." The two whipped around the corner and into one of the party rooms.
"B-But, why does he want us?" Bon panted. "I-I've never even seen him before."
"I don't know either Bon, but I-" The two bunnies hearts stopped as they heard footsteps coming towards them. Without a word, Bonnie yanked his blue friend into the back of the room, behind a large table. He silently hoped that this in combination with the dimly lit room would be enough to cover them. The metallic footsteps began to draw closer. It was then he noticed something. "Quick," he whispered to Bon. "pull your ears down."
"My ears?" Bon asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah, it'll make you harder to see." Bon did just as she was told, and just in time too. Two bright, yellow lights appeared in the door way of the room. It was Chica! Bon almost shrieked in terror at the sight of the horrifying bird, but Bonnie covered her mouth with his hand to ensure she didn't make a sound. They waited anxiously as the large chicken surveyed the room. She turned and seemingly looked right at the two. Bonnie shut his eyes. He was sure they were dead! After what seemed like hours under the birds gaze, the bunny's were able to share a sigh of relief when she finally left the room, convinced that it was empty.
"I-I don't understand...how didn't she see us?" Bon whispered, shakily.
"Guess her eyes aren't what they used to be." Bonnie replied.
"Well, what do we do now? We can't just stay here all night." Bon said as she fidgeted with her right ear. She was very scared, and was finding it very hard to keep still.
"We need to find somewhere else to hide. Somewhere they'll never think to look."
"Yeah, but where?" Bon asked. Both bunnies thought for a moment, before their eyes simultaneously drifted over to the vent at the other side of the room.
"The room!" they both exclaimed, quietly. Bonnie poked his head up above where the tables where covering them. The coast was clear. He turned back to Bon and pointed over at the vent, before making some hand gestures that the blue bunny had never seen before. In response, she simply just tilted her head to the side in confusion. The bunny put a finger over his mouth, before doing what looked like some sort of funny clawing at the air with his arms. Bon shrugged her shoulders. What was Bonnie trying to tell her? "Crawl along the floor very quietly so you don't get seen." Bonnie whispered.
"Ooooh," Bon whispered in realization. "then why didn't you say so?" Bonnie couldn't help but smile a little at her saying this as he led the way. She was such an innocent bunny. That made him all the more determined to protect her from this yellow bear. Slowly, the two animatronics crawled out from their hiding place and towards the vent. The room seemed so much bigger to Bon as she followed the purple bunny. But as they got halfway across the room, the worst possible thing they could've imagine happening, happened.
"They're in here!" the possessed Balloon Boy called. Bonnie gulped. It was now or never.
"Quick, go!" Bonnie cried, yanking the bunny up and over to the vent and letting her run through first. Bon didn't need to be told twice as she raced through the vent as quickly as she could. Bonnie was just about to follow after her when he felt the sharp hook of Foxy dig into his foot.
"Yowch!" Bonnie cried in pain as he tried to move his foot.
"Going somewhere, matey?" the fox asked in a voice that sounded less like Foxy and more like the demonic fox from his nightmare.
"Let me go!" Bonnie growled. He kicked and flailed as hard as he could as he and Foxy played a game of tug-o-war with his leg. Soon, Freddy came up behind the fox and began to help him pull the bunny out. This was bad. Bonnie was loosing ground on the two. If there was ever a time to act, it was now! "I said...Let. Go!" Bonnie cried, kicking the fox in the jaw as hard as he could. The fox recoiled backwards, loosing his grip on Bonnie's foot, but not without tearing away the fur from his foot in the processes. The second Bonnie was free, he crawled through the vent as quickly as his arms and legs could carry him. Freddy growled and tried to go after him, but was stopped rather short due to his...
...larger size...
Unfortunately for the him, instead of charging through the vent and dragging Bonnie back into the party room, he found himself rather...
...stuck.
The other animatronics could only stare at the poor, possessed bear as Golden Freddy approached them.
"Oh, dear. What do we have here?" the yellow bear asked as he eyed up his incapacitated 'brother.' "Freddy, Freddy, Freddy...when will you learn?" He turned to the others. "Pull him out of there at once, and forget about the vents. I have an even better idea."
Bon scampered hastily out of the vent, nearly tripping over herself as she did. She had never been so scared before in her life. By the sounds of things, Bonnie hadn't been so quick as to make it through the vent. Bon hopped he was okay. She waited anxiously for the bunny to return. Then she started thinking...
What if Bonnie wasn't okay? What if he had gotten caught by Golden Freddy, and was being ripped apart this very instant? What if...
*gulp*
...What if he was already...gone?
Bon felt as though a spear had been thrown right through her heart at the thought of this. The thought of her bunny buddy being...dead, made her feel a type of sadness that she'd never felt before. It was worse than when Chi was bullying her. Worse than the pain she felt when Foxy attacked her. Worse than any other time she had felt sad before in her life! The little bunny almost found herself in tears, when she heard a noise coming from the vent that made her ears perk up.
Was it Bonnie?
Was he okay?
Or was it one of her possessed friends coming to finish the job?
Bon really hoped it wasn't that last one. She waited in anticipation as the banging grew closer and closer, until at last a pair of bunny ears popped out of the vent, along with the all too familiar face of her purple pal.
"B-Bonnie!" Bon cried joyously as she lunged at the bunny in an effort to hug him. She had never been so relived to see him before in her life! "Oh, I'm so glad you're okay!" she said as she snuggled her cheek into Bonnie's soft chest, the tears in her eyes becoming tears of joy. Bonnie sighed and smiled weakly as he lay back against the wall.
"Y-Yep...I'm okay...a-and you?"
"O-Oh, yes. I'm fine! Much better now that..." Bon trailed off, blushing a little. But she couldn't help but notice Bonnie's foot. It was missing it's fur and was now all endoskeleton. "Oh, your poor foot! What happened? Did they...?" Bonnie nodded sadly.
"Yeah...but hey, at least they didn't tear it off, right?" This made Bon smile a little.
"W-Well, as long as you're okay." The blue bunny bit her bottom lip a little as she hugged Bonnie even tighter. "B-But...what are we gonna do? Th-That bear. He wants to...to..." Bon gulped as she chocked back a sob. Bonnie sighed.
"I know Bon. I know. He wants to kill us. I'm not really sure why, but he does. But I promise," Bon looked up at the purple bunny, her eyes glistening from the tears. "I won't let him lay a hand on you...no matter what..." Bon's eyes widened. "R-Really?" she asked, hugging a little tighter. Bonnie smiled warmly at the blue bunny.
"You can bet on it."
Bon smiled and nuzzled her cheek into Bonnie's chest once more. "Thanks, Bonnie. I-" But before she could say anything else, there was a loud bang coming from the wall in front of them. Both bunnies looked over, going stiff when they heard the bang again.
"Uh oh." Bonnie gulped.
"B-Bonnie, what's going on?" Bon asked as she clung to the bunny.
"They're breaking in."
Bon's eyes widened. "Wait, what?! B-But, how? Is that even-" Another loud bang rattled the walls, as well as the two bunnies. "Bonnie, what do we do?!" Another bang. The wall began crack.
"We need to go back the way we came!" Bonnie said. "We need to-" But before Bonnie could say anything else, the force behind the wall broke it's way through.
"Get down!" Bonnie cried, covering the blue bunny with his arm as drywall and insulation flew everywhere. Dust and debris rained down on the bunnies, covering them from head to toe like blanket. When the dust cleared, the two bunnies looked up.
"It's me." Golden Freddy said, menacingly. Behind him, stood his army of brainwashed animatronics. "I thought I might find you two here. Next time, don't choose a hiding spot with a false wall." Bonnie glanced over at the vent, about to tell Bon to make a break for it, when he realized that a large piece of broken wall was blocking the way. The only vent they could use was on the other side of the room. Bonnie swallowed hard as the group drew closer.
"Bon," he whispered.
"Yeah?"
"Now, are you ready to face your demise?" Golden Freddy asked, floating over to the bunnies.
"When I say so, run for the vent on the other side of the room."
"Wh-What? But what about you?" Bon asked, looking up at Bonnie worriedly
"The day has finally come where all my hard work will finally pay off."
"Just trust me, I'll be fine." he whispered.
"Anything you'd like to say before I end your miserable existences?" Golden Freddy, as well as his army, stopped just in front of the two fallen bunnies. "Well?"
"Now!" Bonnie cried. He jumped up to Golden Freddy and took a swing at him while Bon made a mad dash for the vent. Unfortunately for them, the yellow bear was one step ahead and easily dodged the bunny's primitive assault, while Fred and Freddy caught the bunny just as she was entering the vent. The two bears dragged Bon back into the room very roughly and held her up firmly by her arms. Bonnie was in a similar position, only he was being restrained by Foxy and Vix.
"You really thought you could escape that easily?" Golden Freddy chuckled. "Stupid bunnies. You should know better than to-" But before Golden Freddy could finish, Bonnie kicked him hard in between the legs. Golden Freddy doubled over from the kick, and took a couple steps back.
"And you should know better than to leave your nuts and bolts within kicking range." Bonnie snapped, still trying to struggle out of Foxy and Vix's grasp. Bon couldn't help but giggle a little at the bears plight, even in the situation they were in.
"Oh, you find that funny, eh?" Golden Freddy growled, turning to the blue bunny. "Well, I think I'll be the one having the last laugh. Foxy, dispose of him. Make it slow and painful." The fox smiled malevolently as he took full hold of Bonnie, letting Vix rejoin the others.
"Bonnie!" Bon cried.
"And as for you...I think I'll have a little fun with you first." Golden Freddy turned to the two bears restraining Bon. "Bring her to the main stage, and be sure to hold her down. I want this to be perfect...Oh, and Vix," The white fox looked up. "Make sure our little friend doesn't try any tricks." The vixen nodded.
"You won't get away with this!" Bonnie cried as Golden Freddy began to leave the room.
"Oh? And who's gonna stop me, you? You're far to weak to contend with me, my friend. You're nothing more than a useless, purple rat. Now, let's go." The golden bear turned around.
"B-Bonnie!" Bon cried again as Freddy and Fred practically carried her out of the room by her arms, leaving Bonnie with a mixture of sad and angry emotions, as well as two foxes ready to tear him to shreds.
"Bon!" he called back, reaching out to her. This action was met with Foxy yanking the poor bunny back and holding him by his neck against the wall
Weak...Useless...yep...that sounds about right...
Tears began to fill Bonnie's ruby eyes, and he sniffled a little.
I promised Bon I would protect her...and I failed...
Foxy raised his sharp hook, ready to slice into the bunny.
I guess this is the end...goodbye Bon.....I'm sorry I couldn't be there...to protect you...
Bonnie sniffed again, wet tears dotting his cheeks. He closed his eyes and waited for the impact.
I wish I could...be stronger...for you...
...your wish is my command...
As Foxy brought his hook down, ready to cut deep into Bonnie's face, something most unexpected happened. His attack was stopped. Bonnie had put his hand up to block the hook, which left a large rip in the fur of his hand. The bunny opened his eyes, which were now glowing a bright white. He could feel new strength...new power running through his circuits.
"My turn."
"Now...where to begin?" Golden Freddy asked as he and the other animatronics gathered around Bon. She had tried to escape once again, but had found herself stuck between a wall and a hard place. "What do you all think? Should I start the head, or the feet?"
"How about with me?" Golden Freddy looked around.
"What?" He turned back, and was most surprised to see Foxy and Vix scampering out of the room on all fours...or threes, in Foxy's case. "What the-?!"
"Over here, Gold." said a voice. Before the bear could turn back, he, as well as the rest of his army were sent flying a good ten meters backwards by an amazingly powerful, supernatural force. Bon looked up. For a second, she almost didn't understand what she was seeing, and neither did Golden Freddy. There standing between the two, was the shadowy black form of none other than...
"Bonnie!" Bon cried, instantly being able to recognize the who her hero was.
"Wh-What? But, that's impossible. You don't have that kind of power!" Golden Freddy sputtered.
The shadow smirked. "I guess you could say I'm full of surprises."
The yellow bear growled audibly. "It doesn't matter how many tricks you pull, you still won't survive another day! Minions, destroy those blasted bunnies!" Foxy attacked first, taking a swing at the shadowy bunny with his hook. Bonnie was more than able to stop the attack, before hitting the fox with a much more powerful punch that sent him flying. Vix leaped next, only for Bonnie to grab her in mid jump by her shoulders. With little effort, he swung the vixen around and sent her flying towards BB, who had been coming to attack next, knocking him down. Chica and Chi followed up behind her. Bonnie blocked Chica's opening attack, delivering a fierce kick to her legs. Chi tried to jump onto the bunny, but was caught mid air and throw back, before being followed by the still incapacitated Chica. Fred and Freddy attacked next. They through swing after swing at the bunny, who redirected their attacks with his hands to avoid them. Bonnie then drove Fred into the floor with a hard hitting punch to the side of the head, before grabbing Freddy's right arm and throwing him into Foxy, who was still trying to recover from Bonnie's last attack. Golden Freddy grimaced as he watched the bunny single handedly took on all seven of his minions.
How did he acquire such an incredible power?
Bon watched in complete awe of the scene going on in front of her. Though she wasn't one for violence, she couldn't help but be amazed at how strong Bonnie was, being able to redirect an attack, and then throw one of his own. And that amazing power. It was like Mari's! She wondered how Mari, Bonnie and this Golden Freddy all had this kind of supernatural power. Bon turned back to the fight. Bonnie had just delivered another punch into Foxy's midsection that sent him skidding back across the room, before tossing Fred into Chica, who were coming to attack next, knocking them down. Bonnie grinned.
"What, is that all you got?" The possessed animatronics growled as they picked themselves up.
"C'mon, you pathetic animatronics. Attack all at once!" Golden Freddy commanded. The seven bots nodded, and all charged at Bonnie at the same time. Bon shut her eyes. Surely Bonnie couldn't stop all of them at once! But Bonnie wasn't giving up just yet. He focused himself, and waited for the perfect moment. Then, when they all pounced at the him and Bon, he put his arms out in front of him. With one mighty pulse of energy, he sent all seven animatronics flying backward. They crashed into the tables and chairs, and Fred nearly hit Golden Freddy as he flew by. "C'mon, get up!" the bear yelled. But this time, his 'slaves' didn't get up. That last attack had knocked all of them out cold.
"Looks like it's just me and you now, Gold." Bonnie said, talking a step forward and smiling at the yellow bear.
"You think I'm afraid of you, just because you've got some new powers to show off?" Golden Freddy asked, crossing his arms. "I'm more powerful than you'll ever be!" The bears eyes began to glow, and his feet left the floor once again. "I don't need any help from those buckets of bolts. I'll just destroy you myself!" The bear lunged at Bonnie at an alarming speed. Bonnie only seemed to take that as a challenge though, and met the bear head-on in the centre of the room. Bon watched as the two exchanged blow after blow at an alarming rate, seemingly matching each other punch for punch. It was almost a blur for her.
"Go, Bonnie, go!" she cried, trying to provide moral support, as...
...what else could she really do? Though Golden Freddy couldn't prove it, he could've sworn that Bonnie's punches were getting stronger as Bon cheered him one. Bonnie then delivered a fierce uppercut to the bear that sent him flying upwards.
Up there...
Bonnie disappeared from his current position, much to Bon's surprise, and reappeared just above where the bear was flying, before sending him hurdling to the ground with a volleyball style spike.
Down...
Just before Golden Freddy could hit the floor, the black bunny reappeared underneath him and gave him another punch to his midsection that sent the bear flying to the other side of the room, smashing through a bunch tables before he finally came to a stop in the middle of the dining area. Bonnie reappeared in front of him, floating among the debris.
"Had enough?"
"Not even close." the bear said, gruffly. He threw a punch at the bunny that he expected to hit Bonnie head on, but instead only seemed to faze right through him.
"Missed me~." Golden Freddy turned around, and recoiled at what he saw. Behind him were, not one, not two, but ten shadowy bunnies, each standing on a table.
"Cheap trick, Bonnie. Making duplicates of yourself. But I know how to tell which one of you is real." Golden Freddy raised his hand to the tables, making all of them flip over simultaneously. To his surprise though, all ten of the dud-bunnies vanished. "What? Where are you?"
"Right here." The black bunny used the same pulsing trick that he used on the others to send Golden Freddy flying through one of the dining area windows, causing the glass to completely shatter as he did. The bear flew a good few yards into the parking lot before finally hitting a metal lamp post. Golden Freddy growled angrily and reappeared behind the bunny.
"Nice try, Mr. Shadow Bunny. But it'll take more than that to knock my lights out."
"How about this?" the bunny asked as he threw his next punch. But before he could hit the bear, Golden Freddy dodged the attack and grabbed his arm.
"Gotcha." Bonnie was about to react, when the yellow bear flipped him over his head and slammed him to the ground, creating a bunny shaped dent in the floor. Golden Freddy then swung Bonnie around a good few times, before letting go and sending the bunny flying into a wall. Or so he thought, but the sneaky bunny disappeared right before he hit the wall, and instead used the momentum Golden Freddy had given him to send an extra strong drop kick into the bears chest. Not only did the bear get sent flying a good few feet, but Bonnie was able to use him as a launch pad in order to preform the greatest back flip Bon had ever seen, complete with a perfect landing.
"Yay, Bonnie!" she cheered, almost forgetting that her and Bonnie's lives were on the line.
"Shut up, you!" Golden Freddy growled as he struggle to get to his feet. He was getting tired of Bonnie's little cheerleader. Bon quickly piped down as to not anger the bear and potentially get herself killed.
"What's the matter, Goldy?" Bonnie asked, smirking a little. "You seem tired. Ready to give up and leave us alone?" Golden Freddy finally stood up.
"Never. I'll admit it, I wasn't expecting you to be this much of a match for me. And I'm not sure how you pulled off using such an amazing power...but I must say, it's most impressive." Bonnie grinned. "However, even with your supreme strength and power, I can still sense a weakness in you." Bonnie crossed his arms.
"Oh, yeah? Please, do tell. I'm dying to know." the bunny said, smugly.
"Her!" Golden Freddy pointed to the blue bunny behind them. Bonnie's eyes widened.
"M-Me?" Bon stammered.
"Tell me, 'Shadow Bonnie.' How much do you care about that girl? I can tell you two are very good friends." Unbeknownst to Bonnie, the yellow bear was using his own powers to lift a table from the dining area. "Let's see how good of friends you really are!" he cried, hurdling the large piece of furniture at Bonnie's blue friend. Bon screamed in fear and cover her eyes as the table came nearer and nearer. And although she heard an extremely loud crash and the sound of broken pieces of table flying everywhere, she felt no impact. The blue bunny opened her eyes, and nearly stumbled backwards when she saw Bonnie standing in front of her. He had not only stopped the table from hitting her, but had also smashed it to bits with a single punch. "Interesting...how about this!" Golden Freddy said as more and more tables began whipping at them.
"Grab on!" Bonnie said, picking Bon up almost bridal style and disappeared away just in time. "Hey, Goldy!" The bear turned around and growled when he saw the two behind were now him. "You missed!" Bonnie said, tauntingly.
"That's enough!" Golden Freddy said, clenching his hand. "You're not getting away this time!" More tables were sent flying at the two bunnies. Bonnie tried to disappear again, but he couldn't.
"Time for plan B."
"P-Plan B?" asked Bon, nervously. Bonnie did what any sane animatronic would do when a table was hurled at them. He dipped and dodged out of the way, while still holding Bon in his arms. Golden Freddy was getting very annoyed. How hard was it to kill two lousy bunnies?
He began sending anything his powers could throw at them. Table, chairs...anything! But try as he might, Bonnie continued to dodge and duck past everything the bear could through at them, even stuff coming in other directions. When the bear finally stopped his assault, Bonnie gently set Bon down behind him and turned to face the golden bear. He was beginning to feel the burn.
"Anything else you wanna through at us?" he asked, throwing his arms in the air. Golden Freddy chuckled.
"I must say I'm quite impressed that you were able to avoid everything I sent at you, Bonnie." The bear outstretched his arms on either side of him, picking up two more tables. "I think this calls for a round of applause!" Golden Freddy clapped his hands together, and in response, the tables followed this action, being sent on a crash course with the two bunnies. There was no way Bonnie could stop both of them at once, nor was there enough time for the two to get out of there. "Bonnie, help!" Bon cried and shut her eyes, waiting to be squashed into a blue bunny pancake...
Then there was a loud smash, bits of table flying everywhere. Bon opened one eye, and was most surprised to find herself...
...unharmed?
She looked up at Bonnie, who had his arms outstretched, before looking down at the floor. Bits and pieces of broken table lay everywhere, but the only thing that had actually hit Bon was a little bit of dust from the impact. Bonnie had used his 'pulse' tactic to destroy the tables!
"Cool trick. Let me try." Bonnie said, sending a couple of chairs flying toward Golden Freddy, who easily destroyed both of them.
"How weak." Golden Freddy replied, brushing the dust off of himself.
"How about this?" To both Golden Freddy and Bon's surprise, the bits of rumble and debris began to levitate into the air.
"Wh-What are you doing?" Golden Freddy asked in shock and confusion.
"This." Bonnie began to move his arm in a circular motion, which caused all the bits of debris to do the same. Everything from large pieces of tables to the shattered glass from the window were circling around the room. Bon ducked down behind Bonnie for safety. She was even more in awe of this feat than his previous ones.
Wow...
What couldn't Bonnie do?
But a more important question flew into Bon's head. How WAS he, and by extension, Golden Freddy and Mari able to do supernatural things like this?
If Bon ever survived this, she'd be sure to ask Mari and Bonnie the first chance she got. When Bonnie's spiral of debris was ready, he pointed directly at the astounded bear, causing all of the rubble to be shot at him, rapid fire style. Golden Freddy was able to dodge and redirect a few of the pieces of broken furniture at Bonnie, who simply blocked the rubbish with his arms, but was soon over powered by the sheer speed of Bonnie's attack, and found himself getting hit by more and more of the junk. Some sharper pieces of debris punctured holes in his suit, and a piece of a chair came down and taking his left ear off. It was like a hail storm of trash!
Finally, the attack ended. Golden Freddy was down on his knees. He looked awful, and felt like he'd just been shot by a machine gun. He gazed up at Bonnie with fiery hate burning in his eyes.
"You giving up, Goldy?" the bunny asked, smirking. The yellow bear closed his eyes.
No...not when I'm so close...not for...
A spark of light glowed brightly in the bears eyes. "I'm not through with you yet!" he yelled. Bonnie readied himself.
"Alrighty then, let's go!" The two dashed toward each other, just as they had done at the start of the fight. Bon watched as they exchanged more punches than the blue bunny could count. But this time, Golden Freddy got an edge on Bonnie. When the black bunny threw his next punch, his arm was grabbed by the bear, who spun him around and threw him towards the ceiling.
Down...Down..!
But Bonnie couldn't disappear anymore. Golden Freddy however, could. And when he reappeared, he was right behind Bonnie. He caught the bunny mid air and gave him another throw into the floor before disappearing again. This time Bonnie was able to predict where the bear was going to be, and delivered a kick Golden Freddy's head as he reappeared beneath him. Bonnie pushed off from the bear and landed a few feet away, before charging in once more. Little did he know that he was playing right into Golden Freddy's hand. The two clashed again with more punches and kicks. Each blocking and counter the others every move, until Bonnie missed a punch that left him wide open. Golden Freddy seized the opportunity he had to grab Bonnie and flip him stomach down into the floor.
"Bonnie!" Bon cried. Bonnie tried to move, but he could feel Golden Freddy's knee pining him down. With no way to escape the bear's grasp, Bonnie would have to rely on brute force to get free. However, Golden Freddy had something else in mind.
"Let's see how many punches you can throw with THIS!" he yelled. He grabbed the trapped bunny's left arm and began to pull.
"No! What are doing?! St-Stop!" Bonnie cried. But it was too late. In one swift motion, Golden Freddy ripped the bunny's arm clean from its socket and off of Bonnie altogether. The black bunny let out a great wail of pain as Golden Freddy tossed the arm off to the side. The pain was immense, and Bonnie could feel his energy draining. His fur colour began to fade back to it's original purple.
"Not so tough now, are you?" Golden Freddy said as he picked Bonnie up by his neck, and gave him a toss in Bon's direction.
"Bonnie!" she cried worriedly, kneeling down to her friend's aid. She helped the poor bunny sit up, before looking at where his arm used to be.
"Where's your little 'hero' now?" Golden Freddy chuckled. "A little pain and you run out of power? How pathetic. It's time I end this."
"I may not have powers like you anymore," Bonnie said as he closed his eyes. When he opened them, they were a dark shade of black. "But that doesn't mean I can't still beat you!"
"Bonnie!" Bon called, trying to stop the bunny as his charged at Golden Freddy with his one good hand clenched tightly into a fist. Golden Freddy simply put his hand out and sent poor Bonnie flying back with a pulse of energy. Despite this, Bonnie got right back up and charged again. And once again, Golden Freddy sent him flying backward. The second he hit the ground though, Bonnie got right back up and charged again.
"Bonnie, stop!" Bon cried. But Bonnie didn't stop. He just kept on charging. And just like before, Golden Freddy sent him flying backwards. Again, Bonnie charged, and again, Golden Freddy launched him.
"Bonnie, you need to stop! You'll get yourself killed!" Bon cried. She couldn't bare to see Bonnie in as much pain as he was. But Bonnie never gave up.
I can't stop trying. If I don't do something, Bon'll be...
Once again, Bonnie was sent flying. "You still think you can beat me like this, Bonnie?" Golden Freddy laughed. "I'll admit, you put up a good fight...but like I said; you'll never be able to match my power." Bonnie charge once more.
"We'll see about that!" Again, Golden Freddy knocked him away.
"You just don't know when to quit, do you? Well then, if it's death you want, it's death you'll get!"
"Bonnie, no!" Bon cried as she watched him charge the bear again. Once again, Golden Freddy put his hand to launch the bunny back. But this time, Bonnie didn't go back. Before Golden Freddy could react, the bunny drove his one good fist into the bears head, knocking him to the floor. Bon was shocked.
But, how did he...?
Golden Freddy sat up. "That's...That's impossible. How did you-...?" Bonnie walked slowly up to the bear, who continuously tried to send the bunny flying as he got to his feet, but to no avail. Bonnie slugged him upside the head as hard as he could. Golden Freddy recoiled.
"What's the matter, Goldy? Out of power?" Bonnie said with a smirk. He threw another punch into the bears chest, and then another into his face.
"Grr...that's enough!" he growled. He blocked Bonnie's next attack with his hand, grinning at the bunny. "It seems you're still unmatched, my friend. For you see, I have two arms, unlike you, who only has-" But before Golden Freddy could continue, Bonnie headbutted him as hard as he could, knocking the bear down.
"You might have two arms, Gold," Bonnie said as he approached the bear. "but I'm not going to let you get a-head of me that easily." Bonnie then kicked the bear in the jaw as he tried to get up. "There's a few more steps you need to take before you can get a leg up on me." Bon giggled a little. She thought Bonnie's puns were very clever. Golden Freddy grimaced at the bunny, who was now closing in on him.
No...I can't lose...not now...but...I feel so...drained...how can I beat him...?
He glanced over at Bon, and an idea flew into his processor.
That's it! Let's hope this works...
Golden Freddy pointed his arm towards Bon, and concentrated as hard as he could. Bon began to hear an extremely loud, ear piecing sound, not unlike the one her friends had heard earlier. She pulled her big ears down, trying to block it out, but it was no use.
Wait, what's happening to me...no...no...No...!
Bonnie was about to lay into the bear again, when he felt something restrain him from behind. "Wha-?" Bonnie turned his head, and was very surprised to see Bon holding him back. Before he could say anything, the blue bunny slugged him hard across the face. So hard in fact, that Bonnie could have sworn he felt something crack as he hit the floor.
Bonnie! Oh, what did you do that for?
"Bon, what are you doing?" Bonnie asked as he rubbed the side of his face.
"It would seem that the little one knows who to fight for." Golden Freddy said, standing up.
What...? No...I...
Bonnie got a glimpse into Bon's eyes, and gulped. They were just like his friends. Black, with a yellow pupil. "You didn't...you wouldn't..." Bonnie stammered.
"I play for keeps, Bonnie. Now, you wouldn't hurt your little, blue friend, would you?" Bonnie glared angrily at the bear as he stood up.
Please Bonnie...
"No...I wouldn't." The bunny sighed as his eyes faded back to their normal ruby colour.
"That's what I thought. Bon," Golden Freddy said, turning to the bunny. "dispose of him, would you?"
No way! I...won't...do it!
Bon tried to resist as much as she could, but it seemed to be no use. She marched up to the bunny and pounded him once again, knocking him back to the floor.
What are you doing?! Stop it!
She got on top of Bonnie and began to wail on him with blow after blow, continually striking him in the face. Bonnie just lay there and took it.
Stop it! That's enough Bon! You're gonna...
Bonnie began to feel his body shutting down. Each punch the blue bunny threw came with immense pain, but he didn't dare try to stop Bon.
Don't worry, Bon...I won't hurt you...I promised to protect you...
His vision began to feel all fuzzy and part of his face just above his right eye began to crack.
...and a promise...
Suddenly, a piece of his face broke away, leaving exposed wires and part of his endoskeloton underneath.
...is a promise...
Bon's punches gradually became slower.
Stop it! Stop hurting him!
The poor bunny was doing everything she could to resist, until finally...
I said stop!
And she did. Bon stopped her attack, redirecting her last punch into the floor just as she threw it. Her eyes faded back to her normal green ones, and she looked down in horror at what she had done.
"Well," Golden Freddy said, sternly. "finish him off." Bon didn't respond. She just stared at Bonnie in disbelief.
"Bonnie...?" she asked quietly as small tears began to form in her eyes. But Bonnie didn't respond. He could barely even move, let alone talk.
"I said, finish. Him. Off." Golden Freddy repeated, becoming annoyed that the bunny wasn't listening to him. Bon's sadness quickly turned into anger. Anger that not even she could control.
"No!" she wailed, turning around. "Look what I've...what YOU'VE done to him! Hasn't he suffered enough?!" Bon got off the battered bunny and stared angrily at Golden Freddy. "How heartless are you?! You come in, hurt our friends, and make me...Agh!" With out thinking, she charged fiercely toward the golden bear and tried to strike him, only to be grabbed firmly by the neck and lifted off of the ground when she got within reach.
"You dare try to defy me?" Golden Freddy asked. Instead of answering, Bon angrily kicked the bear in the stomach, making him wince in pain. "Fine. Then it's your turn." The yellow bear squeezed his hand into a tight fist and pulled back. Bonnie watched the scene in pure guilt from the floor. He lost. He failed, not to protect Bon, but to keep his promise as well. He felt awful.
No...please...let me...
As you wish, my friend...
Bon shut her eyes as the bear brought his fist forward.
*CRUNCH*
Bon opened one eye. She was confused. She heard the punch hit her, but she didn't feel anything. Even stranger, she wasn't in the bears grasp anymore. She was lying on the floor. Was she...
*gulp*
...dead?
She opened her other eye and looked up in horror. There was Golden Freddy, with his fist firmly implanted into Bonnie's face, completely shattering it, while Bon sat in the same spot Bonnie had been lying in. The bear seemed very surprised by Bonnie's ability to do this, even after he had taken away his power to do such a thing. And though it was hard for him to tell at the time, he could've swore he saw the purple bunny grin a little.
"Hmph...I guess the little rat had one more trick up his sleeve." he said, tossing Bonnie to the side. The purple bunny hit the wall with a loud thud, causing the remaining pieces of his face to fall out and onto the floor.
When Bon laid her eyes on the poor bunny's broken body, her heart was the next thing to be shattered. His ears hung lifelessly on either side of him, and the only part of his face that was still in tact was his jaw. Even then, it hung very loosely and was very badly beaten.
"Now, for you." Golden Freddy said as he turned to the blue bunny. Tears began to fill Bon's eyes as she turned around, ready to admit defeat. She wasn't going to fight this anymore. She didn't want to. There was only one thing she wanted to do.
"Pl-Please, Mr. G-Golden Freddy. Before you do this...would you let me say goodbye to Bonnie? I promise...I won't try to run, or struggle, or anything else. Please..." Golden Freddy stared at Bon, and considered her request. He was about to say "no," but then he got a look into the blue bunny's eyes. They were so sad...so...pure...
...almost like...
"Alright," the bear sighed. "Go, say your goodbyes. But be quick about it." Bon nodded and walked over to the barely conscious bunny.
"...B-Bonnie...?" she asked, wiping some tears from her eyes, only for more to take their place. Using all the strength Bonnie had in him, he looked up at the bunny. Two dim, red lights where his eyes used to be flickered on and stared at her. "Well, Bonnie. I...*sniff*...I guess this is it..." Small tears began to roll down Bon's cheeks, before dripping onto Bonnie's fur. "I know that we...*sniff* ...only met a few days ago...but they've been the best few days of my life...thank you for doing so much for me...you taught me how to play guitar...you made me feel happy when I was sad...*sniff*..." Bon gently wrapped her arms around Bonnie's shoulders, trying to hold back the flood of tears in her eyes. "...*sniff*...th...thank you for protecting me...for being there for me...a-and, if this really is goodbye...then I just wanted to say that you were the...the..." Bon couldn't take it any more.
Finally, she gave up and let the water works fly, hugging Bonnie closer than she'd ever done before. "You were the b-best bunny buddy a girl could ever have!" she wailed, tears dripping down her face as she put her head on his shoulder. Bonnie, very weakly, raised his right arm to Bon's head, and touched it with his cold, metallic hand. Slowly, he began to rub the bawling bunny's head, just as he'd done for her so many times before. Bonnie wanted to cry as well, but he felt to weak to do so. He could feel the last bits of energy leaving his body, and knew that there was only one thing he wanted to say to the blue belle before he ran out of power.
"Bon..." he said, weakly. The blue bunny pulled back, her eye's still full of tears. "Thank...you...for being...my..." Bon watched in sorrow as the bunny tried desperately to speak. "...f-friend..." he uttered, before the light in his eyes went out completely, his arm laying back down to the floor. Bon's eyes widened as she watched her friend shut down completely, his body going limp as one final thought passed through his mind.
Goodbye, Bon...
The poor bunny hugged him even closer. "No! Bonnie, please don't go! Please don't leave me...! Pl-Please..." she cried, sobbing heavily into the bunny's chest. Golden Freddy watched the scene from a little ways away. It looked all too familiar to him.
That's what I said just before...
Deep down inside, he began to feel something. Not a feeling of anger, or of hate. It was something else. Something the bear hadn't felt in a long time. A single tear rolled down his muzzle as he watched the bunny cry, remembering something from long ago.
Flashback: 1983, Fredbear's Famliy Diner
"W-Will she be alright, Fritz?" a yellow bear asked sadly as he sat over his friend.
"I don't know, little buddy. That accident caused a lot of damage. I hate to say it, but I think she might-" The bear looked back at the man with tears in his eyes.
"No! You've gotta fix her! You've just gotta! Please...! Please..." The man sighed as he looked back at the poor bear's friend.
"I'll do everything I can..."
"Fritz, may I speak to you for a moment?" a man asked from another room.
"Coming boss! You stay right here with her, alright? I'll see what Mr. Fazworth needs, grab my tools and come right back to fix her. Okay?" The bear nodded slowly.
"O-Okay." Just as Fritz left the room, Mari appeared next to him.
"Oh, my." he remarked. "She's in pretty bad shape, isn't she Goldy?" The bear felt more tears stream down his face.
"Don't say that Mari! She's gonna be fine!" he cried, partially saying that in hopes it would be true.
"Now, now. Shouting isn't going to help things. Now, let me see." Goldy stepped aside.
"A-Alright, but don't hurt her, okay?" Mari nodded and floated forward. After a few minutes, he was joined by the bear. "C-Can she hear us?" he asked. Mari turned back.
"I beg your pardon?"
"Can she even hear us cry for her?" Goldy repeated tears dotting his muzzle. Mari shook his head.
"I don't know Goldy. She's broken deep down inside, almost as if she were sleeping." Mari turned away for a moment.
"How about you try to get some sleep as well? It's rather late after all." Goldy looked down at his friend, before looked back at the puppet. He let out a little yawn before nodding sadly.
"Yeah, I-I guess. Do you think Fritz would mind if I slept beside her?" he asked, sniffling a little.
"Oh, I'm sure he wouldn't." Mari said soothingly, putting a hand on the bear. "Don't worry Goldy, everything will be fine. I promise." The bear nodded and lay down next to his companion, before drifting off to sleep.
Golden Freddy sighed.
That was so long ago...
He wiped the tears from his eyes and turned back to Bon.
Never mind..I'll be with her soon...
He began to approach the blue bunny, and was about to tell her that her time was up, when she did something very surprising.
"O-Okay...I'm ready..." Bon said with a sad sigh as she stood up and turned around, stretching her arms to her sides. Sure, she was afraid, but...without her friends...without Bonnie...there seemed to be nothing left to fight for. "A deal's a deal..." Golden Freddy was surprised by this. He was expecting the bunny to put up a fight, not just let him kill her.
"V-Very well then." he replied, trying to maintain his superior disposition. But as he picked the blue bunny up by her neck and brought back his fist, he hesitated. He took another look into her emerald eyes. They were so soft...so caring...they reminded him so much of...
The golden bear almost couldn't bring himself to do it.
This is for you...my friend...
But just as he was about to unleash the final blow, a voice stopped him. "Get your hands off of her!" A sharp and sudden force hit the golden bear, causing him to let go of Bon. The blue bunny's eyes widened, as the one who had saved her was none other than...
"Ch-Chi?" Bon asked. She was very surprised.
Golden Freddy was furious. "Why you little-" He was about to lunge at the bird when he felt himself suddenly restrained. He looked back, and began to feel very worried. Holding onto his left arm was Freddy. On his right, Fred. And with her arms wrapped around his waist, was Chica.
"G-Guys!" Bon cried. They were alive!
"Did'ja miss us?" Chi asked as she helped her blue friend up. Golden Freddy began to panic. "Let me go you buckets of bolts!" he snarled.
"What's the matter, brother?" asked Freddy. "I thought you were always the 'superior Fazbear'." Foxy and Vix walked up to the restrained bear.
"Yer' time be' up lad." Foxy said, sternly. "'Tis time ye' paid for everythin' ye've done." The fox then took a step back. "Ladies first, lass." Vix smiled.
"Why thank you, captain." she said, walking up to the yellow bear, her eyes going black as she wound up her first punch. "This, is for making us your slaves!" she growled as she hit the bear in the jaw, knocking it loose. "And this," Vix continued, "is for hurting our friend!" she gave the bear a fierce punch to the stomach, making him double over. "Thanks, captain." Vix said as she turned back to Foxy. "He's all yours." Foxy grinned, before turning to the yellow bear.
"Now' it's time for ye' ta walk th' plank, ye' golden scurve!" he growled. With one quick motion, Foxy stuck his hook through the bears suit, much to Bon's horror. Golden Freddy's pupils became dilated, and his vision began to go fuzzy.
"M...Mercy..." he whimpered. "H-Have...m-mercy." Foxy got up close and personal with the bear.
"Mercy...be' only for the merciful." Then, with one more swing of his hook, the fox made a horizontal cut through the bears stomach, cutting off his power supply and ripping out some wires along with some fur. The bear's eyes slowly closed, and he went as limp as Bonnie as he fell to the floor.
...no...I failed...goodbye...Spring...
"It's over." Chi sighed, smiling at the bunny "Isn't this great, Bon? We're alive!" Then she got a look into the bunny's eyes. They were anything but the bright and happy ones she remembered. "Bon? Are you okay?" she asked. The others walked over joined the two. Bon didn't reply, she just shook her head and turned back to Bonnie. "O-Oh..." Chi said sadly, her face falling. The others followed suit. The broken form of Bonnie was a terrible sight for all of them, but for Bon...
...it was the worst sight of all...
