Happy Halloween! This is going to be a backstory for the all secretive and skillful, Paul! I won't be adding italic lines due to time restrictions just so you know, also, this story has almost hit 5,000 views! Only around 200 to go! Just so you know, I was inspired to write this backstory becauce of a guest review station something about the genitals, so Mr. Guest inspired this! I don't really have much more to say here so... on with the story!
I sat down on the floor and hugged my knees as I smiled at the performers on stage, they were 2 employees in suits, one was a golden rabbit and the other was a golden bear.
"Mathew, we have to go!" My mom called out from a table.
"Okay mummy" I called back as I ran over to her, we left Fredbears Diner and I ran over and climbed into the back of the car, my parents climbed in as well before starting the engine and pulling out of the parking lot.
I turned around and looked out the back windscreen at the diner as it came out of view, as I turned back I noticed another car coming down the road, heading straight for ours.
"Mummy watch out!" I called out. A loud smash echoed through my ears before everything went black.
Later...
A chesty cough came out of my mouth as I opened my eyes. "Mum... dad?" I called out through the room, I looked around, I was in a soft white bed and a white room with different equipment scattered around, I was in a hospital.
"Mathew?" I heard a male voice say.
"Dad?" I asked as I looked for the source of the voice.
"Sorry, it's not your dad," the voice said, I watched as a man walked over, he had a long white coat on and was holding a clipboard.
"Where's mom and dad?" I asked.
"I'm sorry Mathew, they're in a better place now, do you have any relatives?" He asked.
"Uh, I have my uncle, but what do you mean? Where are they?" I asked.
"Uh, we'll have to send you to live with your uncle, Mathew," he said.
"Okay, but what happened to mom and dad?" I asked, I was thirsty for an answer.
"They're in heaven now," he said.
"Oh..." I said as I leaned back in the bed. "But I'll see them again, right?" I asked. The doctor looked down and rubbed the back of his neck.
"Sorry kiddo," he said.
5 years later...
"PaulyPaulyPauly!" One of my step-brothers said as they grabbed my bag. I was living with someone else, I had at least 12 brothers and 6 sisters, the worst part is we were all jammed into one small house.
"My name's not Paul!" I yelled.
"That's the name dad gave ya!" He called out as he threw my bag to another one of my step brothers.
"Guys, come on!" I said as I tried to grab my bag.
"Here!" He said as he pushed the bag into my chest, making me stumble to the ground. I listened as they laughed before walking away, I just laid there on the ground.
"You alright Paul?" Jeremy asked as he helped me up, he was the youngest of the family, only 10, that's about 2 years younger than me. He wore a black polo shirt and green shorts, he had light brown hair with a pair of glasses over his eyes.
"Thanks" I smiled as I fixed up my hair.
"Dinner!" My step-dad yelled out.
"Let's go," Jeremy said as we walked back to the house.
3 Years Later...
I put my backpack on my back and started towards the door.
"Paul?" I heard a familiar voice say.
"Call me by my real name," I said as I turned to one of the rooms, it was Jeremy.
"What is your real name, sorry, I forgot" he replied.
"It's... uh... I... I can't remember" I said in shock.
"Happens to all of us" he replied. "Where are you going by the way?" He added.
"Away forever, I can't stand it here," I said. "You should come with me" I added with a smile.
"Sorry Paul, I have to stay here" he replied.
"Suit yourself, I'm going to make a living out there, you'll see" I replied.
"I'm sure if it, you were always so smart, goodbye then?" He smiled.
"Goodbye dude, thanks for everything" I smiled as we fist bumped. I walked out the front door and down the road, leaving my old life behind and starting a journey of my own.
4 Years Later...
"Fire!" The instructor called out, I quickly aimed down the range and emptied my entire clip into the dummy, I didn't miss a single shot.
"Great shot Paul!" The instructor called out.
"Thanks" I replied.
"Paul, come to my office" my boss called out, I reloaded my pistol before holstering it and walking to my boss' office. I walked in past the two armed guards holding big automatic rifles before sitting down at his desk.
"Yes, sir?" I asked.
"Paul, let's see, you're top of the class, you're smart and have all the knowledge possible with technology and robotics," he said.
"I was self-taught, sir," I said.
"I know, but in all other circumstances you would get into the special ops team," he said as he looked over a clipboard.
"What do you mean, sir," I asked sternly.
"I mean... due to your mental health issues we can't let you on the team," he said. I went silent.
"B-b-but sir, I've been training for 3 years and your only bringing this up now?" I asked.
"I'm sorry Paul, fate works in mysterious ways," he said. In an instant, my shock turned to anger.
"Well, fate has some bad plans for you" I growled as I stood up and drew my weapon, pointing directly at him.
"Drop it!" I heard a voice say from behind, I turned to see the two guards with their guns aimed at me. I just realized how much I fucked up.
"Okay" I said as I raised my hands, one walked over and the second he grabbed me I quickly turned around and kicked him off his feet and grabbing his head mid fall and slammed it into the desk, wasting no time at all I quickly turned around and sent a shot straight through the other guards head before sending the other shot through the unconscious guards head. I quickly spun around and shot the walkie-talkie out of my boss' hands.
"Don't cross paths with me" I said as I holstered the weapon and ran out of the room, with a lot of dodging guards and cameras I finally escaped the compound, I broke into the closest car and quickly drove away out of the parking lot, the compound leaving my sight as I flew down the road.
Later...
I sighed as I hit a bridge overlooking a waterfall, I grabbed off my belt and gun and threw it out the window and into the water below the bridge. I watched the different trees go past either side before reading the sign to the side of the road. "Hallow Falls," I said to myself as I drove past.
I reached a small town, it had a soft mist settling on the ground and looked abandoned if it wasn't for the different people and cars going about their day, I pulled down a street and parked in a motel parking lot before walking to the front desk.
"One room please," I said as I pulled out my phone.
"Alright, 200$ a week," he said.
"I've already paid for the month," I said as I typed some code into the phone before sending it to his computer.
"Name?" He asked.
"Paul, Paul Smith" I replied.
"Yep, your names right here" he replied. "Room 6" he replied as he threw me my key.
Later...
I finished hacking the database of the compound and managed to mark my name as 'Deceased'. I was off the grid for the time being, after the heat died down I would move out to the city, hopefully, buy a house and settle down.
"Hopefully I can get my life back together," I thought as I laid down on the bed.
1 Year Later...
I looked around the new house, it was on the outskirts of New Athens, the city was nice and the location of my house meant minimal distractions. I moved all my new stuff in and turned my basement into a work zone. All I needed now was a job.
Later...
I looked through the different fliers on the wall of the coffee shop, nothing too interesting, mostly missing person reports. I took another sip of my coffee and was going to leave before something caught my eye, it was a small, crudely made flier pinned up.
Anyone with expertise in robotics needed.
Call Bryan for more info on 180-365-120
I shrugged before putting my coffee down and pulling out my phone. After a couple of short rings, someone picked up.
"You've reached Joanna!" A happy sounding female voice said.
"Could you put Bryan on please, business inquiry" I said professionally.
"Fucking hell" she replied sounding a bit annoyed. "Babe, someone calling about your place again" I heard he call out, with a bit of rustling someone new came to the phone.
"Bryan, whatcha need," a happy sounding man said.
"I'm calling about that robotics poster, you need a designer and builder, right?" I said.
"Oh thank god, I've been waiting for about a month, I'm situated in the Blue Vally region across the state, you're going to have to get the robots shipped if you finish them" he replied.
"That's not a problem, let's talk about money and details" I replied.
"You first, what experience do you have in this sort of stuff?" he asked.
"Self-taught in advanced robotics and coding" I replied.
"That'll do, so details, I work for a sort of... furry company... I need 4 animatronics, furry animatronics, 2 female and 2 male, but one request is that they have working... genitals..." he said as he trailed off. Well, that was unexpected.
"Money?" I asked.
"5k" he replied, I was about to tap the hang up button but stopped as he mentioned the next words.
"Each" he added.
"20k, sounds reasonable, I'll get started straight away," I said.
"Great! Keep in touch" he said as he hung up.
Some Months Later...
I looked at the final animatronic looking blankly towards the wall.
"Vixey," I said as I pointed to the white, female vixen.
"Bonnie," I said as I pointed to the purple, female rabbit.
"Freddy," I said as I pointed to the brown, male bear.
"And Foxy," I said as I pointed to the final animatronic, a red, male fox. I grabbed the blueprints and neatly packed them to the side of my workbench, I grabbed my phone and listened to the ring tone before someone picked up.
"Paul, I got the photos, I didn't expect them to turn out that good!" He said.
"You were doubting me?" I asked.
"Never did, I'll get the money into your account as soon as they're shipped over" he replied.
"Good, I'm shipping them now, goodbye," I said as I hung up.
1 Month Later...
"Paul, I'm sorry to say but our place got shut down, we never got to use your robots in our facility, they weren't even touched sadly, we shipped your robots back," Bryan said over the phone.
"I know" I replied as I looked at the animatronics sitting in the corner.
"You've already got the money, so goodbye then?" He asked.
"Forever" I replied as I hung up, I put the phone down and looked back over at the animatronics, what the hell was I meant to do with them? Brrr Brrr. I looked back over at my phone.
"Unknown, eh?" I smiled as I picked the phone up.
"Paul Exersly, how may I help you?" I asked as I leaned back on my chair.
"Paul?" When I heard the voice I instantly recognized it.
"Oh my god, Jeremy?!" I said in shock.
"So this is the right number" he replied.
"I can't believe it! How are you?!" I smiled.
"Not too good, actually, I'm actually in prison, I have to make this quick, I made sure the police can't track your number" he replied, this just gave me more questions.
"Why are you in prison?" I asked.
"Just listen, my business is gone and I'd like you to take it over" he replied.
"What do you do?" I asked.
"I'm... a contract killer" he replied.
"Like a hitman?" I asked.
"Precisely, can you take the business over for me, you've always seemed like the guy that could do that sort of thing, whatcha say, good money, exciting..." he replied.
"I... sure, for you" I smiled.
"Great, I've rerouted the emails and calls to you," he said quickly. "Got to go!" He said as the line went flat.
"Contract killer," I said to myself.
The Next Day...
"That one," I said pointing to the FN Ballista on the wall.
"Sure, good hunting sniper that is," the guy said as he pulled it off the wall.
"I know, precisely why I bought it," I said as I handing him the money. I put it in the case before taking it to my car and sliding it onto the back seat, I pulled out the map and looked over the circled area before checking the time, 5 minutes left. I started the engine and pulled out of the parking lot.
Later...
"Okay... now I wait" I said as I aimed through the scope, I watched the guards walk around the parking lot before my target walked from the building and into view, I only had a couple of seconds before my target left, I took aim and get the perfect shot. BANG!
I let out a breath as I looked at the target, the guards rushed over to his side, my first kill. I quickly packed my gun away in the case and climbed out the opposite end of the parking lot before climbing into my car and speeding away, I was home free. I grabbed out my phone and soaked the number.
"Hello?" Someone asked as they picked up.
"Target down," I said.
"Good, the money should be in your account now," they said as they hung up. I sighed as I threw my phone onto the passenger seat.
2 Weeks Later...
I looked over the poster sitting on the ground.
Fredbear's Diner Closing Down!
Due to lack of business, the beloved Fredbear's Diner is closing down, come down to Hallow Falls for the grand closing!
The date was from a couple of months back.
"I loved that place" I smiled to myself.
"You know what, I'm reopening that place," I said to myself as I grabbed my phone, I had the money and the expertise.
"Time to reopen my favorite childhood pizzeria" I smiled to myself.
A Couple of Months Later...
I was proud of myself, I looked at the different customers walking around the building and eating the pizza, I finally reopened my favorite childhood pizzeria.
"It needs something else," I thought as I walked around, I looked into Pirate's Cove, there were some props and a couple of kids running around with foam swords.
"I know what this place needs," I said as I walked to the front door.
Later...
I looked at the animatronics in the corner before turning back to the computer, I finished the coding and tried to give all the animatronics different personalities.
I walked over to the animatronics and inserted the chips before standing back and watching. After a couple of seconds that all got up and looked forward, Freddy stepped forward and put his hand out.
"Hey kids, welcome to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza!" He called out in his robotic voice.
"Now I need clothes," I said to myself.
4 Days Later...
I paid the workers before bringing in the new animatronics, I set Freddy, Bonnie, and Chica up on the main stage and Foxy and Vixey up in the Pirate's Cove as a pirate duo.
"This is going to be perfect" I smiled to myself.
1 Month Later...
I dragged the animatronics to the back room and sat them to the side.
"Stupid complaints" I grumbled to myself as I moved the last one in. "Not child-friendly" I scoffed. "At least they don't know about the dead guards" I smiled.
I had moved the animatronics to the storage due to complaints from customers about certain design choices. "I'm still using animatronics, I guess I have to make new ones," I said as I left the animatronics in the back before leaving the room.
2 Months Later...
I dragged the new animatronics into the pizzeria, they were the same as the old ones but made of a plastic like material to save money, I pulled them up onto the stage and set them up before looking around. I wandered into Pirates Cove and looked around, it was sort of empty without a pirate animatronic.
I wandered into the back and looked at the animatronics sitting in the corner, collecting dust.
"Vixey got the least amount of complaints out of the two, I'll use her," I thought as I dusted her off, I took her back to Pirate's Cove and set her up on stage. I activated her before going to the other stage and activating the other animatronics before leaving to the parking lot.
Brrr Brrr. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and checked the contact name, it was Mr. MacDonald, the person I hired to run the place while I was gone.
"Paul, how may I help you," I said as I answered it.
"Hello Mr. Smith, I'm coming in tomorrow, right?" He asked.
"I've got the new animatronics set up and we will be opening tomorrow, so yes" I replied.
"Okay, good to know" he replied.
"Goodbye," I said.
"Okay, goodbye Mr. Smith," he said as he hung up.
2 Years Later...
"Come on..." I said to myself as I turned the small robot on.
"Hello," it said in its robotic voice.
"Furthest I've ever gotten" I smiled as I write down a couple of notes.
"Can you hear me?" I asked.
"I can hear you, you're Paul, right? My creator?" It asked.
"Yes, how are you?" I smiled as joy overcame my body.
"I'm good, how about you?" It asked.
"Yes!" I yelled, making the robot stumble back a bit.
"What's with the sudden outburst?" It asked, I quickly turned the robot around and pulled the chip out before plugging it into my computer and making 4 copies. I quickly pulled out my phone and called the pizzeria.
"You-"
"Is this Mr. MacDonald?" I asked, cutting him off.
"Yeah, is this Paul?" He asked.
"Yes, I've got a proposition for you, it's totally up to you, though, free will for the animatronics," I said.
"Free will for the animatronics?" He asked. "Not now," he said to someone else in the room.
"So?" I asked.
"I'll think about it" I replied.
"Call the main building and ask to add it to the next checkup if you change your mind," I said.
"Alright, goodbye Mr. Smith," he said.
"Goodbye," I said as I hung up.
3 Weeks Later...
"What do you mean?!" I asked in shock.
"Vicky, Vixey, whatever her fucking name is, she killed someone during a show!" He replied.
"I swear to god if this is a joke I will fire your ass" I grunted.
"It's not, it really did!" He said, sounding a bit distressed.
"Fuck..." I said as I put the phone down, I rubbed my eyes and took a deep breath before picking the phone back up.
"I'll be right over," I said.
"Thanks" he replied as I hung up, I walked upstairs from my basement and to my bedroom before getting dressed into my suit before locking the house and climbing into my car.
Later...
I pulled up into the parking lot past 3 police cars before parking next to the building, I watched the police officers holding the news crews back from the front door, as I stepped out of the car I was instantly surrounded by microphones and cameras, I shielded my face from the cameras as everyone yelled different questions, the different news stations fighting over as much information possible.
"What happened in there!"
"Are the animatronics safe?"
"Is the employee dead?"
I shuffled past the police officers who held back the media before walking into the pizzeria, I sighed before fixing up my tie and straightening my suit before walking towards the entrance to Pirates Cove, before I could enter I was stopped by a police officer standing next to the door.
"Sorry sir, can't go in," he said.
"I'm the owner, out of my way," I said.
"No one can enter until the ambulance arrives" he replied.
"Move!" I grunted. The police officer sighed before stepping out of the way, I opened the door and ducked under the police tape before entering the room, laying on stage was the animatronic, blood covering the front of its body and face, there were splatters of blood over the wall, purple curtains and the front row of seats.
I walked past the chairs scattered around and fallen over, the room was trashed from people trying to leave in a hurry. I climbed onto the stage and stepped over the animatronic and inspected the body, it's stomach was ripped open and most of his face was gone along with his right arm torn clean off and chucked half way across the stage, his uniform was ripped and scattered around.
I kneeled down and pulled the name tag off his ripped shirt, running a splat of blood off the tag with my thumb, I read the name tag.
Bryce Miller.
I noticed a piece of paper sitting in his pocket, I pulled it out and looked it over, it was the employee standing next to a pregnant woman. I sighed as I put the photo back, I leaned back against the wall as listened to the soft adventure themed music play over the speakers, filling the room.
2 Years Later...
I reopened the pizzeria at a new location further in the city, hoping the past events are forgotten and I could just start the business again, nice and fresh.
I fired Mr. MacDonald and hired a new guy called Mathew, I decided to scrap the new animatronics and use the old ones instead, I asked Mathew to bring in the old animatronics stored in the back at the previous location. I smiled to myself as I climbed into my car and pulled out of the empty parking lot.
Later...
Ding! I rolled over to my computer and looked at my email. "Who do I have to kill now" I smiled as K read the email, to my surprise it wasn't from some jealous lover or angry neighbor, it was from Mathew.

Hey, Paul, I brought the new animatronics to the place and I've set them all up, I've got the bear, rabbit, and chicken on the main stage along with the two pirate foxes in Pirate's Cove.
Regards,
Mathew Walker.
"Not good," I said to myself as I replied to the email. "This dickhead brought the killer back, I thought she was scrapped with the others" I grunted as I started typing.

So I got your email about the new animatronics, it's come to my attention that you brought that broken animatronic from the old pizzeria, the monster killed someone and it could severely affect our business, she is not fit to perform and never will be. I would like you to return the animatronic for scrapping or since it's already there just throw it into storage or something.
Regards,
Phil.
I sent the email and sat back as I eagerly awaited a response. Ding!

Thanks for telling me Phil, I never knew and I'm taking the thing to storage now, you shouldn't hear anything more about it.
Regards,
Mathew Walker.
I sighed as I sent another email before turning the computer off. "That was close," I said to myself.
27 Years Later...
"I don't know, this place needs something new, it's been getting along for the last couple of years but we're slowly losing business, we need something new," I said over the phone.
"Like what?" He asked.
"Free will chips" I replied.
"Free will in the animatronics?" He asked.
"Trust me" he replied.
"Do you believe it could help with the missing guards?" He asked.
"Probably, whatcha say?" I asked.
"Sure, why not" he replied.
"Goodbye, I'll come right over" I replied.
"See ya later" he replied as I hung up. I got up and looked around the house. I had a new phone, computer and car, everything in my house was top of the line. I grabbed the chips and made my way to the pizzeria.
Later...
I got the help of a random employee and I finally managed to get them all booted up, all except one, Foxy. I inserted the chip and sat back and watched.
"Is it working?" He asked.
"Pretty sure it is" I replied.
"This is the last animatronic right?" He asked.
"Right, but about the other one" I replied.
"The one in storage right?" He asked. I simply nodded.
"Right, the chip was already installed and by the state of it, she's had it for years, probably into the time of the previous location but she needs a good clean up before she's fit to perform again," I said.
"Who said anything about performing? She's been back there for years, boss says it'll cost too much to fix her, and even if we did, there still was that..." he said.
"That what?" I asked sternly, I knew the answer but I wanted to know how much about the incident was still known.
"That incident back in the previous location, everyone would be scared of her" he replied.
"True, hey let's focus on the changes" I smiled. "The chip is meant to make them more, shall I say, aware, they can free roam now. The chip is very sophisticated, it gives them emotion, happiness, anger, fear, it's meant to make them more... human like" I added.
"Human-like?" He asked as he turned to me.
"Human-like while still keeping their animal personality" I smiled. I turned back to the animatronic fox, watching as its eyes lit up.
There you go! Does that quench your thirst for answers? Also, PLOOOOOOT TWIST! Anyway. I've got some info on the story, there is going to be a sequel to this story after it's finished, I've already got plans, a preview and ideas for it! Anyway, until next time, goodbye!
