S.A.V.E H.E.R
A/N: After a semi-successful day of cleaning I think I'm okay to start writing again. The crying bot will finally be revealed, I just wonder if anyone has caught on to who they are yet. As always I want to thank BewitchingMayham, AMangledMisfit, Wes27, and Venomousbook38 for the use of their characters. I only own Spike, Larry, Vara, Crackers, the kits, and Leo. Everyone else belongs to Scott Cawthon (Including the crying bot, and someone else who makes an appearance.) Enjoy!
Bon phased from place to place as he tried to keep up with Foxy. Something had caused the fox to snap and become rather erratic. It wouldn't have been too bad except for the fact that the fox had taken Goldy and Sarah with him. Bon had never witnessed any bot with speed like Foxy's at the present moment. The toy rabbit was starting to wonder if somehow Foxy had awoken whatever ability the child that haunted him left behind. Phasing once more he appeared next to Foxy, "Hang a left!"
"Just keep up!" Foxy responded and jumped from a crate towards the direction Bon indicated, "Can you still hear them?"
Bon nodded and phased through another crate, "It's getting closer. Hang on….I'm hearing more."
"What is it?" Sarah asked.
Bon shook his head and continued to listen as more voices started to torment whoever was crying, except for one. The voice sounded vaguely familiar to Freddy's but there was a certain tone to it that was different. He listened as the voice tried to comfort the crying bot, and from the sounds of it they had another part of their act, "Someone's trying to comfort her…"
"Bon, focus. Tell us what you hear." Goldy encouraged.
Bon nodded and continued to listen, "We should hurry. Foxy take another right."
Instantly Foxy was moving again and nearly caused Goldy to fall off his shoulder. Bon continued to guide the fox through the warehouse until they came to what they believed to be the center of the building. Noticing heavy walls the group finally stopped and looked towards what looked to be like a whole different building all together. Goldy pulled out the cell and called the pizzeria, "Rex, do you see us?"
"Good to hear from you Goldy. So it seems you have found the true second area of the warehouse. We don't know what's inside, once you go in we'll lose sight of you until we can hack into the system." Rex responded sounding rather annoyed.
Goldy nodded, "So we'll be in the dark. I'll pass it along to the others."
"Yeah, so be careful. We don't know what's in there." Rex cautioned and hung up.
Goldy then sighed and explained what Rex had passed along, and everyone nodded understanding. With a little effort Foxy and Sarah managed to get one of the doors open not caring that they tore it off the hinges anyways. Looking around they realized this room seemed to be more like a storage facility for something much darker that was probably further inside.
"Smelters….This…." Bon looked around.
Foxy felt sick, "This is where they take bots to die…"
"Oh no….please….Pete…." Sarah fell to the ground.
Bon knelt next to her, "Don't worry I'm sure he's okay still. These look like they haven't been used in quite some time."
Foxy nodded and offered his hand to the sloth, "We'll find him, and get him out of this hell hole"
Sarah nodded and allowed Foxy to help her up, looking around she could see what the toy rabbit had meant. The smelters looked like they hadn't been run in years, which gave her some relief. As they started to look around she could tell that Bon was intently listening to something that was probably going on deeper within the building they were now in.
Meanwhile as Foxy and the others searched in a deeper part of the building an animatronic tried to drown out children taunting her. Keeping a purple curtain wrapped around her, she tried to drown out the children who thought she was responsible for their suffering. Closing her eyes she tried once more to drown them out, realizing it was failing she looked up only to be greeted by a blue puppet on someone's hand.
"Come on cheer up!" the puppet Bonnie spoke.
The female bot looked up a little, "Freddy, you're still active I see."
Her focus turned to a white and pink rendition of Freddy that unlike any other bot she had crossed appeared to be made of metal, and in several parts the suit could easily come apart revealing the endoskeleton inside. This was by far the strangest rendition of Freddy she had met, and that was saying something after seeing how he had changed over the years. The one that amused her the most was a model line that had been referred to as the "toy" models based on their kid friendly appearance and being cased in plastic. She could only assume that these "funtime" models were built at the same time, or close to the toy models based on their similar features. However, this was the only rendition of Freddy she had met that couldn't part with Bonnie, literally.
The white bear nodded, "Of course I am, I can't stand the fact that someone's so sad. Bonnie would never let me live it down if we didn't cheer you up."
"That's sweet of you though." The covered bot sighed and looked around towards a group of deactivated and torn apart bots, "Don't you miss your friends though?"
Freddy nodded, "Of course I do, but once you get out of here I can finally rest. Well hopefully."
"There's no promise that I'll ever be free of this place. They're going to destroy me soon I can tell." She admitted and perked up some, "Someone's here…I can only assume they're here for the bot that's in the workshop right now."
"Hmmm?"
"She means that endoskeleton that they brought in! What was his name, Pete?" Puppet Bonnie asked.
Freddy nodded, "Oh yeah, that's right. I'm surprised anyone came at all. Maybe things have changed over the years…..But, they won't get far."
"Freddy?" the covered bot asked.
Puppet Bonnie looked down and almost seemed remorseful, "He's malfunctioning again. I think he's become a bit too protective of you, but I can't blame him. You've been through a lot. Being replaced, watching everything you know be reduced to ashes. Whoever is here…I hope they take you with them. You deserve to be free from this place, besides I'm sure Fredbear is waiting for you."
"Bonnie, thank you." The covered bot almost sounded like she was going to cry again.
Before she could say much more her hearing finally caught on to whoever was in the building with them. From the sounds of it there were three male bots, and one female among them talking about the best way to find Pete. She had to try and find a way to warn them about the malfunctioning bot that was heading their way. She watched as Freddy started twitching violently parts of his casing opening revealing the endoskeleton within. To her surprise though the puppet that remained attached to Freddy's hand seemed to remain conscious of what was going on, "Come on Freddy, stop this!"
"Shut up!" the white bear spoke and started to head towards the group of bots that had finally entered his domain. He may not have been able to save the others, but he wouldn't let the same happen again.
Towards the entrance of the building Foxy noticed that Bon had jolted to attention, "Bon? What is it?"
"Someone is coming….from the sounds of it, they're hostile." Bon responded, "Sounds like they're made of metal, they're damaged and malfunctioning. I think they have a puppet or something."
"A puppet?" Goldy asked curious.
Bon nodded, "Yeah, they seem to be pleading with Freddy to stop."
"Wait did you say- Just how many Freddy's are there!?" Sarah asked.
"A lot" the three Fazbear bots responded.
Their attention turned to the bot that had approached them, and realized that Bon's hearing had been spot on. The Freddy that appeared before them indeed looked like they were made of metal. Some parts of his casing had gone missing, but he was mostly intact. The one feature that struck them as odd besides his coloring, was the puppet that rested on his other hand. The malfunctioning bear unleashed a scream, even causing the puppet on his hand to wince. Foxy tried to size up the bear, deciding what to do. The only one who was well versed in fighting was Bon, but unlike the metal menace in front of them, Bon was made of plastic.
"Please, we don't want any trouble." Foxy started hoping to make peace.
Though Freddy didn't speak, the puppet of Bonnie did, "I know, but Freddy here is malfunctioning. He thinks you're here to hurt her."
"Hurt who?" Goldy asked.
The puppet looked away, "I can't say. Please, save her!"
"That's enough out of you!" Freddy yelled and pulled the puppet from his arm and threw it aside, "I won't let you take them away! Your travels end here!"
"Great, he's delusional…." Foxy sighed, "Goldy, Sarah you two keep going ahead. Bon I hope you have an idea on how to beat this guy."
"If I could take on Springtrap, I should be able to manage this guy." Bon sighed and phased to his shadow form.
Goldy hopped onto Sarah's shoulder, "We should keep going while they're busy. We're close."
Sarah nodded and hurried off while Bon and Foxy tried to figure how they were going to combat the metal bear before them. Foxy revealed his endo eyes trying to size up the bear. His metal casing would make him harder to deal with, but there was surely a way to manage. Freddy quickly swung at Foxy, but somehow the fox managed to evade the hit and pushed the bear back. Bon watched and hurried to help Foxy in any way that he could. However, his attention was pulled to the puppet that Freddy had torn from his own body.
"S-Stop him….Please, stop Freddy. S-Save her." The puppet pleaded crawling towards Bon.
Bon picked the puppet up, "Please, tell me how do we stop him?"
"T-The weak spots….are where the casing is loose. Pry them open, damage the endoskeleton….T-That will stop him….M-Maybe we'll finally be at peace. Freddy….he tried to protect the others…but he…he felt like he failed. Since then he's been driven to keep her safe." The Bonnie puppet spoke, "He wasn't always so bad, but I've lost my friend."
Bon nodded understanding and set the puppet down as it ceased to function. Turning his attention to the fight between Foxy and Freddy. He was surprised to see that Foxy was managing to fend off the metal bear rather well. The older fox managed to land a few hits before Freddy had managed to throw him into a crate. Foxy looked up feeling something snap once more and managed to escape from the bear's grasp, "Bon!"
Bon nodded and phased into the metal bear gaining some control of the malfunctioning bear, "Foxy, the weak spots are where his casing can come apart revealing the endoskeleton! I'll try and keep him restrained."
Foxy nodded and took his hook digging it into one of the open spots of Freddy's casing and relished the fact it was ripped away so easily. Before he could do much damage though somehow Bon had been expelled from Freddy's body, leaving the bear even more furious. Foxy was quick enough to react though and jumped up on one of the crates, "Bon, you alright?"
Bon looked down at the puppet Bonnie that was next to him, "I have an idea!"
Foxy nodded and ripped open another part of Freddy's casing and Bon quickly threw the puppet into the open spot realizing that Freddy was starting to short out, "Why….Why did it…"
"Come on Freddy, we've done all we can." Bonnie spoke weakly, "You can't live in the past. Come on….the others are waiting for us."
"We can't leave her alone though!" Freddy groaned as he started to shut down.
The puppet laughed a little, "Freddy, she won't be. With them here now she'll finally be able to go home. The kids will stop tormenting her."
The metal bear turned towards Foxy and Bon before he ceased to function, "Please, save her. She's not a bad bot. It's not often you meet the orig-"
Before Freddy could finish speaking he ceased to function and fell to the ground. Foxy caught he metal bear and sat him down gently, "We still don't know who you're talking about, but we will save whoever you're talking about."
"All he wanted to do was protect someone…" Goldy spoke from Sarah's shoulder.
Foxy turned his attention to the two who re-emerged from a few crates, meaning they never left in the first place. The mechanical fox watched as Bon started to hum the very lullaby that Bonnie would play to ease his nerves. He had figured witnessing death was probably hard for the toy rabbit. Steeling his resolve, and determination he knew they were close, and it wasn't time to stop now. Offering his hand to Bon he helped him up and turned towards the direction Freddy had emerged from. No one had to say anything, they all knew what needed to be done. They would save whoever the crying bot was, but their first priority was still Pete.
"Well, looks like we're going further down the rabbit hole." Foxy muttered.
Bon nodded, "But at least we have someone watching."
Goldy looked up to the security cameras, "Good, they're watching over us. Sarah, are you ready for what's ahead?"
Sarah nodded, "Yes, we're so close. I know we'll find him."
Foxy and the others nodded, they were just at the start. Each one paid their respects to the fallen version of Freddy, and the small best friend that had helped them end his suffering. In the other part of the building, the covered bot began to cry once more, but this time of happiness knowing that Freddy had finally been freed.
