Toy Freddy stood thoughtful for some seconds. Everything was like a puzzle, with pieces that couldn't be connected properly.
"But… now that I think about it…" Toy Bonnie muttered. "All this makes no sense. I mean, you- how can you move without an endoskeleton?" he asked Golden Freddy, sounding even more confused than the rest.
"Let's just… say… That he… gave me life."
He looked over at the Marionette after saying that. Just a couple of seconds later, the bare endoskeleton mirrored the action. Toy Bonnie stood silently for a moment. "Well that kinda explains how I am 'alive' again."
"Uh. Said that way it's weird." Toy Chica pointed out.
"Now, are there any more questions?" Marionette asked the group of bewildered animatronics in general.
"I would want to know what the deal is with the old animatronics." Toy Freddy answered lowly, crossing his arms. The Marionette nodded.
"There's too much hate upon them. And it's taking over their minds. Sooner or later they won't be able to control themselves anymore."
"Is there any way to… I don't know, make them realize that it's not our complete fault that they're all broken?" Toy Chica asked. The Marionette looked away.
"I'm afraid not. They only believe what their minds tell them to believe."
All the toy animatronics except for Toy Freddy looked at each other, clear expressions of fear could be seen on their eyes.
"And what will we do if they lose control?" he asked, sounding more worried than before. The old animatronics were dangerous already. Foxy managed to tear Mangle apart in just a couple of brawls, and Bonnie dared to 'kill' his counterpart in the moment he was blinded by anger.
"There's only… one hope… if that happens." Golden Freddy answered.
"Which is…?" Toy Freddy awaited the possibly miraculous thing that would somehow help him and his friends.
"A night guard." The Marionette said calmly. "The old animatronics mostly hate humans. If one comes and watches over you, they will be more focused on him. There's a chance that they'll forget about you that way."
The toy animatronics' expressions went from fear to hope. But, the happiness didn't last long, when the Marionette continued. "However, there are two things that would make everything go wrong again. If the old animatronics manage to kill the guard, they will focus on you again, and will be more aggressive after having killed someone. Or they can focus on both the night guard and you."
"If we can do something to stop them temporarily, then bring that guard." Toy Freddy chimed proudly. He looked behind and gave his partners a reliant look, which they gave back. Golden Freddy nodded, the endoskeleton following the action, before saying, "You'll… have to… tell Leigh… about it."
"W- Wait…" Mangle spoke for the first time in the whole day. "What- t if h- h- he doesn't-t wan- want to hi- hire a n- n- night gu- ard?"
"He'll have to, eventually. Trust me." The Marionette assured.
A/N: Ok, you got me. Short chapter again T_T I really need to stop writing this late at night, because my inspiration simply goes away when I do it. But next chapter is going to be the longest one, so, yay!
