Shadow Goldie took her sword and used it to cut Puppet. Nightmare was using her daggers to do the same to Marionette.
Puppet: I was able to change her for a short amount of time.
Marionette: Maybe I can do the same.
He turned to Nightmare and smiled. She stopped and blushed.
Marionette: Hey. My name is Marionette. I will never stop fighting. Your boyfriend killed my true love. The sun to my day and moon to my night. The smile to my laugh and the beat to my heart.
Marionette could see Nightmare's eyes soften. Then there were tears.
Nightmare: I-I'm so sorry.
She let him down and glared at Shadow Goldie.
Nightmare: let me help.
She threw her boomerang at Shadow Goldie which made her hold her side in pain.
Nightmare: You two should run. Go now!
One of Nightmare's eyes turned red as the evil fought. Puppet grabbed Marionette and they ran to the basement. Once in the old office, they tried to catch their breath. Occasionally a loud bang was heard, shaking the room.
Puppet: We have to save them.
Marionette looked at him.
Marionette: We can't. They're gone. We'll never see them again.
Puppet: not true! She told me that there was still a way. Somewhere in the basement is a box.
Marionette: Oh really.
Marionette was being sarcastic, but Puppet just ignored him.
Puppet: she didn't finish what she was saying. I still think we should check it out.
Marionette: What's the point? It's probably a trap.
Puppet was getting angry.
Puppet: What does that mean?! Don't you love her!
Marionette: I did, but now she's gone. There is no return from where they are.
Puppet looked down at the charm bracelet he was wearing. He held out the gold and black heart. A tear fell down.
Puppet: Get up.
Marionette: Huh?
Puppet: I said get up!
Marionette quickly stood up.
Marionette: What?
Puppet: We're going to get them back.
*while Puppet and Marionette looked around in the basement, Springtrap was arguing with the man*
Springtrap: Why did we do that?
Purple man: We had to.
Springtrap: No we didn't! How could you?!
Purple man: I did what we had to. I knew that you wouldn't do it. She was a weak spot.
Springtrap: No! I loved her. I can't do this! I want you out!
Purple man: Sorry Spring Bonnie, but I'm in control now.
Springtrap: No!
*back in the basement*
Puppet: Find anything yet?
Marionette popped out of a huge pile of boxes.
Marionette: No.
Puppet kicked the wall.
Puppet: DANG IT!
The wall shook and a pice of the ceiling fell on Puppet.
Puppet: Owww!
Marionette: Hey look!
Where the ceiling pice used to be, was a view of a secret room.
Puppet: Well that was unexpected.
Marionette floated up inside with Puppet. Once inside they were deeply disturbed.
Marionette: Ummmm
Hanging on the walls were pictures of Golden and Goldie. There were pictures of Goldie sleeping and pictures of Golden and Marionette. Any pictures with Puppet or Marionette had an X over the boys.
Puppet: This is creepy.
Marionette spotted a box in the middle of the room. He walked towards it and opened it.
Marionette: Puppet! There are papers in here that you might want to see. rituals and all kinds of voodoo stuff.
Puppet and Marionette searched through the papers and about an hour after examining each sheet, they found what they were looking for.
Puppet: Look! It says here that there is a way to bring someone back from the Forbidden realm!
Marionette: How?
Puppet: "In order to bring a person back from the Forbidden realm, you must seek the help of three souls. One of the enemies, one of someone who has been on the brink of death, and one from someone who has gone to the realm and back. With the aid of the souls you may release one soul from the realm. In order to not release all spirits, two people of the living must sacrifice themselves!"
Marionette: Do we even know any souls?
Puppet: What does it mean "a soul from the enemies"?
Marionette: Springtrap?
Puppet: No that'll be to hard and we don't want him to know we are still alive. What if he put some sort of lock on the entrance. Then Goldie and Golden would be doomed. We need to think of someone else.
Marionette: I noticed that you and Goldie are always alone. Aren't there any other animatronics here?
Puppet: Yeah but they haven't been known to be the nicest. Especially Freddy! That dirt bag!
Marionette: Well at least one of them has to be able to help us. Come on.
Puppet: Ugh fine.
Marionette and Puppet snuck out of the basement. As soon as the coast was clear they ran for the office.
Puppet: Who should we start with first?
Marionette: Maybe we should find someone who has been on the brink of death. We can save Freddy for last since he seems to be an enemy.
Puppet: One problem. I don't know of anyone who has been on the brink of death.
Marionette: Think. Has anyone ever been broken down to their bare endoskeleton? You know like a mangled mess?
A static radio sound filled the room. The two looked around trying to find the source of the noise. Mangle hung in the hallway with an evil grin.
Mangle: This will be fun!
When Puppet and Marionette's backs were turned, Mangle climbed in the room and opened her jaw wide. She was about to bite into Puppet when something covered her mouth and dragged her to the dark shadows. Puppet turned around only to see nothing but shadows of darkness. When they looked away again Mangle struggled out of the stranger's arms. They were both in the party room. Mangle glared at the figure that was covered by a dark cloak. The only thing visible was a moon pendent and the figure's white glowing eyes.
Mangle: Who are you and what do you think you are doing?!
The figure laughed a dark laugh, making Mangle feel uncomfortable.
?: I am the one who will give you nightmares if you dare hurt them. They will offer you a great deal that you should accept.
Mangle: W-what do you mean!? Who are you?!
?: That is not important right now. What's important is that you speak to the Puppet and never speak of this conversation.
Mangle just stared. Speechless.
?: Now if you excuse me, I have important things to attend to.
The figure backed away into the shadows, disappearing from the room. Mangle felt a little bit of fear. Yet she felt like if she didn't do what the mystery figure asked, she would suffer an unwanted faith.
