2:00 am:
Lily had figured out how to use the camera system and the buttons. There were only five cameras: one near the front entrance, one in the main cave room although the curtain blocked the animatronics, one in the main hallway with the five entrances for each animatronic and the two entrances to the other hallways, one near the vent at the end of left hallway, and the last one near the vent of the right hallway.
The white buttons were lights that lit up four areas: the center hallway, the left hallway, the right hallway, and the main hallway. The red buttons controlled four doors: one was the door in front of the Security guard's room, the other was in the center hallway right before the left and right hallways merged to the center, and the last button closed both vent doors. Lily wasn't able to see into the center hallway very well without turning on the light. She took note of that, knowing that she would have to keep an eye there since anyone could easily hide in there.
As she looked through the cameras, Ethan was talking to her over the phone as he was using his computer system to 'see' into the place by tracking the animatronics' movements. So far, there was no movement that both Lily and Ethan saw.
"They haven't moved at all," Lily said, while checking the main hallway.
"Yeah, but that's probably a good thing. The longer they don't move, the better odds it would be that the place is normal," Ethan said.
"That would be nice," Lily said, and then asked, "How are Mike and Foxy doing?"
"I haven't gotten a word so far... oh wait... yeah, how your doing? Okay, just look around and get Foxy close to them if you can... Alright bye... -click- Yeah, Lily they're doing okay so far. They're going to see if the animatronics over there are 'alive' now," Ethan replied.
"Okay," Lily replied, as she returned her attention to the cameras.
"'Alive.' This is freaking crazy," Ethan mumbled over the phone, although Lily heard him.
"You've seen enough to know that it's true Ethan. These animatronics aren't normal at all," Lily said.
"I know. It's just cra- Lily one of them moved," Ethan said, as his casual conversation voice became deeper and quicker paced.
Lily clicked to the camera of the main hallway. She lightly gasped when she saw glowing blue eyes further away from the camera. When she pressed the light button, she was able to distinguish the animatronic as Bridget the Megabat. Lily quickly took out a pamphlet she found in the Employees' room, which showed each animatronic, along with their names.
'Bridget the Megabat,' Lily thought when she came across her picture.
Then Lily looked back at the camera screen, and she gasped and jumped a bit when she saw that Bridget was closer to and looking straight at the camera.
"You okay Lily?" Ethan asked.
"Yes. She just startled me, on the camera," Lily replied.
"Be careful Lily," Ethan said.
4:00:
Bridget slowly worked her way towards the Security guard's room. Lily kept a close eye on her through the cameras, so Bridget couldn't move too far. When Bridget finally made it close to the left vent, she stood with her back turned towards the vent. Lily found that odd, but then she clicked the camera to the main hallway, and she saw another pair of glowing eyes, but they were brown. Lily clicked on the light and saw that the animatronic Dingo was starting to move.
"Lily, another one is moving," Ethan said.
"I see him," Lily said, as she quickly turned to the pamphlet and saw that his name was Dave Dingo.
"Lily, the other one is moving," Ethan said, as Lily switched the camera.
Her eyes widened when she saw that the Bat animatronic was close up to the camera and was reaching into the vent. Lily kept her finger on the vent door button, as she clicked the camera to the main hallway. Dave was no longer there, and Lily quickly switched the camera to the right hallway. She saw glowing eyes at the end of the hallway, and she quickly switched on the light to see the animatronic Dingo hiding half of his body between another room and the actual hallway. Then Lily heard a tumbling sound from the vent, as she quickly clicked on the vent door button and closed it. The tumbling stopped, as Lily looked towards the left vent. Then she heard tumbling again, but it was distancing itself from the vent. Lily quickly looked through the hallway cameras, and she saw that Bridget was standing further into the hallway, while Dave was closer to the camera.
"They're moving in unison," Ethan said.
"So one is distracting me, while the other one is moving closer to me," Lily said.
"They're trying to catch you off guard... Close the door," Ethan said quickly.
Lily closed the center door, as she put on the light. She saw that the door was a rusty red with large scratches all over the bottom of the door. After examining the strange door, Lily looked through the cameras and she saw that Bridget and Dave had moved further back into the left and right hallways. Lily opened the vents again, and then she opened the center door and turned on the center hall light. Her eyes widened when she saw Bridget and Dave peeking out from the further left and right entrances to the center hallway. Lily stood staring at them for a moment, and then she clicked off the light. She quickly checked the hallway cameras, And then she clicked on the center light again. Lily gasped when she saw that Bridget and Dave were peeking from the closer left and right entrances into the center hallway.
Lily closed the front door of the Security room, as she noticed that the front door was metal, and rusty red around the corners. There were also large scratch marks on the bottom of the door.
'Why are the doors only damaged near the bottom?' Lily thought, but then she heard rummaging in both vents.
She clicked the vent door buttons to close the vents, but in the moment of closing them she saw blue and brown glowing eyes in each vent.
'I have to be very careful. They move quick, and they will take any opportunity they can get,' Lily thought.
5:50:
Lily was almost finished with the night shift. She was able to keep Bridget and Dave away from the Security guard's room, although she felt uneasy since it seemed like they were watching her more than trying to get into the room. Ethan also took note of that, as he watched their movements on his laptop.
"They're movements aren't very hostile. They seem to be more intrigued by you then threatened," Ethan speculated.
"I'm not sure which one I prefer," Lily said, which made Ethan half-smile, but she couldn't see it since they were talking on the phone.
"... I just got a message from Mike and Foxy. The place they went to is clean," Ethan said.
"That's good. They're safe," Lily said, as she switched the camera between the left and right hallways to watch Bridget and Dave.
"Yeah, it's good to know... Lily in front of you!" Ethan said quickly, as Lily looked up and clicked on the center hall light.
Her jaw dropped when she saw the Jackal animatronic standing halfway down the center hallway. He was looking at her with a smug grin and dark eyes that were all black with a white ring around the pupil. Lily quickly closed the center hallway door, as she quickly switched the camera between the left and right hallways. Bridget was in the left hall, and Dave was in the right, but the Jackal animatronic was with Dave as he stared straight into the camera. Lily quickly looked at the pamphlet and saw that the Jackal's name was Jack.
"Well, that name wasn't hard to come by," Lily whispered, and then she looked at the cameras again.
-Be~ep Be~ep-
Lily saw that the timer on her phone went off, and that it was finally six o'clock.
"Time's up. Ready to come out?" Ethan asked over the phone, since he heard the ring tone.
"I'm going to see if they went back in place first," Lily replied, as she quickly checked the cameras and saw that the animatronics weren't there.
However, what made her nervous was when she saw a quick movement in the main hallway's camera from the center entrance. Lily quickly gathered her stuff in her backpack, as she and Ethan hung up. As she put her phone in her pocket, Lily quickly and carefully peered at each corner she turned to before walking down the hallways, just in case if any of the animatronics were still there.
After getting out of the Employees' room and locking the door behind her, Lily quickly headed towards the van and entered the vehicle.
"You okay?" Ethan asked, as he started the engine of his van, while Lily put on her seat belt of the passenger seat.
"Yes, I'm fine. But I don't think they're normal," Lily said.
"Aw man," Ethan said, as he started to drive.
"Will you be okay tomorrow night?" Ethan asked.
"I will. Besides, your helping me too," Lily said, and Ethan nodded.
"Let's get Mike and Foxy," Ethan said, and Lily nodded, as they continued driving down the road.
After picking up Foxy and Mike, the Midnight Fighters headed back to the hotel to rest for the morning until noon.
