Engineer sat down at the computer desk, Demoman standing behind him.

"So what are ya' searchin' for?" the Scotsman asked.

"I'm re-confirmin' some things me and doc already went over." he explained. The mechanic reached behind the monitor and pressed a button. The computer whirred and beeped a few times before an image of RED appeared on the screen.

The Texan scrolled the mouse over to Saxtonet Explorer and clicked on it. A white page appeared on screen with the words 'What would you like to search for?' located above a search bar.

Engineer typed in the search bar, 'Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria History' and pressed Enter. The screen went blank before a bunch of links appeared.

"Oh, that one looks promisin'" Demoman commented, jutting his finger towards the very first link labeled, 'Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria History – Saxtonpedia'.

Engineer clicked on the link, greeted by tons of images of the animatronics, the pizzerias, newspaper articles, and numerous paragraphs choc-full of information:

Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria was once the most successful children's restaurants in the early 1970's, but due to reports of missing children, smelly animatronics, and poor security – management soon had to shut its doors. From then on, Freddy Fazbear's would never reach it's peak again.

Engineer ignored reading the rest and clicked on the link – making another page appear.

"What are ya' doin'?" Demoman quizzed. "I was readin' that!"

"Demo, I think I've found somethin' good." the Texan explained.

Missing Children Incident:

Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria has been infamously known for being a place with poor security and numerous missing children. The most infamous occurrence was on June 26th, where 5 children were reported missing. Video surveillance had led them to the culprit, but due to a lack of physical evidence, an unknown motive, and no DNA samples – the charges were dropped.

Police believe that the man used a mascot suit to gain the children's trust and led them to a back-room – where the murders occurred.

The bodies were never recovered.

"Bloody hell," Demo commented. "So ya' think that these children are possessing these animatronics?"

"Not a doubt in my mind, partner." Engineer answered.

RED Base: 9:00 PM

All RED Mercenaries sat at the circular table where all of their meetings typically took place.

"Alright, fellas." Engineer announced, getting all heads to turn to him. "Me and Demo believe that there are ghosts haunting them animatronics."

All the mercenaries, except for Demoman, Soldier, and Sniper, looked at Engineer as if he were speaking gibberish.

"It's official: everyone has lost it." Spy scoffed.

"I know it sounds crazy, but think about it." Engineer responded.

"S'not that crazy," Sniper remarked. "After dealing with ghosts, wizards, and those robotic freaks, I'll believe anythin'."

"Heavy thinks it is too far of stretch." the Russian commented, "Why would ghosts possess kiddie robots?"

"Well, that wizard lady that took me' eye said that those animatronics were possessed by ghosts." Demoman replied.

"...And an article said that 5 children might have died there." Engineer added.

"But zhere are only four robots," Medic retorted.

"What about that yellow bastard?" Scout asked.

Soldier's face lit up in realization, "Wait, those four robots and that yellow bear would make..." he looked down at his fingers and began counting them. He muttered 1 and 2 but then paused for a brief moment.

"5 enemies and 5 children!" he calculated, holding up 7 fingers.

Scout's eyes widened and his jaw dropped, realization hitting him. "I foresaw this..."

"What?"

"I fore-freakin'-saw this!" Scout exclaimed. "I remember I was watchin' this in one of my dreams. This creepy puppet thing played this song and these ghost kids came out of a box and went into the robots!"

"Oh please," Spy jeered.

"I'm telling the damn truth," Scout insisted, glaring at the Frenchman. "Something you don't do, Frenchie."

"Mmmph mmph!" Pyro mumbled.

"What, Pyro?" Engineer asked.

"Mmph mmph," the firebug hustled out of the room and came back in with a box filled with rejected flame-throwers and cosmetic items. The arsonist rummaged through the items for a moment before yanking out a proton pack from the Ghostbusters.

"Mmph!" it said, putting on the proton pack.

The Texan let out an amused chuckle, "Sorry Pyro, but I don't think some ghostbuster tools are going to be enough to stop them animatronics."

Pyro's shoulders slumped and its head lowered as it let out an inaudible pout. It gingerly put the items back into the box.

Soldier looked at the box and he smirked, "I've got an idea, men!"

All the mercenaries glanced worriedly at each other and then to Soldier. Demoman sighed,

"What is it this time, Sol?" he quizzed.

"You'll see," Soldier said with a secretive smirk, "You'll see..."

A/N: I know a lot didn't really happen in this chapter. I just wanted to try and reiterate some old information in this chapter from previous chapters (along with some new information) since you guys probably don't remember every single detail that has occurred in this story. But on the bright side: we are moving on to Night 5 the final night.

What is Soldier's plan? How will the mercenaries survive Night 5? And why the HELL is there no Ghostbuster cosmetic for the Pyro?!

Find out all these answers (except for the last one) in the next chapter of '9 Mercenaries at Freddy's'!
