Ruby walked up to it.

"Celebrate?" Then she noticed someone had scratched out something into the wall itself beside it.

THE NOSE

She blinked, tilting her head to the side before cautiously poking it, maybe there was a secret button-

HONK!

She won't lie, she shot out of her skin and landed flat on her arse, hair spiked as her heart was about to claw it's way out of her chest. Her pupils dilated as she relaxed, taking a breath to calm down.

'Who the bloody hell puts something like that in a poster?!' Ruby pouted, glaring at it as she stood up, dusting herself off. The awful smell, the stupid frights. If this keeps up, she might actually vomit, the odour being that bad. Almost as bad as Freddy.

Which reminded her that she needed to clean him or replace his fur.

'Great time to be thinking about that.'

She rolled her eyes at herself, picking up her flashlight and continuing down the hallway.

Just to her left, she noticed another poster of Freddy.

But he was yellow...no...more like golden... She pulled the photo out of her pocket and comparing the piece of fabric to the colour in the distorted image.

Yeah...it looked like a match but she didn't recall Freddy or anyone else mentioning a Golden copy of himself...

Heha ha...he haha...

She spun around, hearing a little girl laugh and was instantly reminded of that Balloon kid, looking around-

-until something pulled her into the office, both doors slamming shut, despite the building not having any power. She looked up to see the same Golden Freddy from the poster, only sitting on the ground, slumped against the desk.

Ruby froze, every hair on the back of her neck standing on end. Her pupils shrunk to pinpoints and she was on the verge of hyperventilating.

She shivered violently as the Golden Freddy groaned, human like rasping in his voice compared to normal Freddy's slightly robotic voice.

"I...have been waiting...so long..." He wheezed, his head slowly turning to lean to the left, small red lights glowing inside those empty hollow sockets.

Ruby was too scared to speak, noticing handprints on his face, they looked like the size of a child's. She quickly glanced around for any escape, anything.

"Yes...I am a monster...After what I did...I can never ask for forgiveness..."

Ruby blinked, sweat running down her forehead, her eyes becoming bloodshot as she realised who it was.

"F...Frank?" His head tilted the other way.

"The one and only...let me guess...you're one of those teens pulling off a dare or some crap, right?" He said, suddenly sounding venomous, one of his lifeless hands twitching.

He was immediately in her face, holding her off the ground and screaming in her face, a horrible distorting sound as she saw a rotten fleshy face staring back at her, shriveled and brown, wrinkled like someone who stayed too long in water.

It looked like an older man, faint whispers of his living self barely recognisable as she was greatly reminded of a mummy without the bandages. Her heart was in her throat.

Ruby screamed and dropped the photo, it flipping and falling to the floor face down.

Golden Freddy didn't notice as he clamped his jaws down.

SCRNK

Onto metal.

A slender spindly arm had shoved her head out of the way as Golden Freddy chomped down on that instead.

"I'm sorry but I need that young lady alive."

A white smiling mask seemed to float out of the shadows, an insanely inhuman grin painted across it's features.

"What's this? A friend of yours?"

'Did...did he follow me?' Ruby wondered as the Marionette, quick as shadows, had hit Golden Freddy's back, using his arm as a whip as the bear released the petrified woman however her instincts kicked in and she fled the room through one of the open doors.

"Hi, uh have you seen a Marionette around?"

Ruby didn't hear a word he said, her fear only making her think of one thing.

Escape.

She shot down the hallway, blending into the darkness.

The man blinked, adjusting his glasses.

"A simple 'Yes' would have been fine." He muttered, looking where she ran from only to run off to the left as a large yellow bear flew through the wall, nearly crushing him. He looked like Freddy.

However 'Freddy' noticed him and screamed another horrid sound.

"GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE YOU USELESS TEENAGE C*NTS!"

He flinched until the Marionette grabbed the yellow bear.

"Now, now, no swearing...I thought a man of your age would be better then that Frank." The Marionette teased but Golden Freddy's Rage, once triggers, was a dangerous and somewhat lethal thing that had been passed on from Frank.

"GET OFF ME YOU FUCKING MUPPET!" He then hurled the Marionette towards Jacob, sending them both skidding across the floor, out of view.

"Are you alright Jacob?"

"Yeah I'm fine, mind explaining what you're doing here?"

"We're here for your friend."

Another scream rung out and the Marionette moved so much like a snake, slipping off into the darkness with fast, graceful and unnatural movement, it sent chills down Jacob's spine.

Ruby had ran into the backroom, slipping around Golden Freddy when he entered as well and jumped onto the stage, tripping on something.

It was an old microphone with FF on it. Ruby picked it up, maybe she could use it, maybe jam it into the mechanism of his jaw next time he tried to tear her head off?

Golden Freddy only took a single step to get onto the stage, basically in front of Ruby as her eyes watered, tears streaming down and landing on the microphone in her hands.

In two steps as she cowered, towering over her, the angle and her eyes looking like a terrified child.

She closed her eyes.

Like a terrified child.

Like a-

"Please stop." Ruby whispered, trembling as her whole frame shook in fear, her heart making her chest ache and her breathing felt unbearably hot and tedious, her eyes stinging from crying.

Freddy held his head.

"Father in Heaven, what have I done?"

Ruby looked up at the senile voice. The bear looked at her, still having those black eyes.

"A-are you okay now?" She was terrified that he'd change back in an instant, snapping her neck or taking her head off with one bite.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry," He kept repeating over in a loop, stepping back and vanishing into the shadows, his head still in his hands as blood ran down those empty sockets like tears, through the spaces between his bulky fingers, falling to the floor but crumbling away like dust before reaching the ground. The same was happening to the rest of him.

Before he left, a vivid image appeared in Ruby's mind of Golden Freddy's face rushing at her, screaming again as her eyes rolled into her head, falling off the stage and landing on the ground below, unconscious.
