-[yet another one I started months ago and only finished recently... and it shows, the tone kinda shifts a bit and the ending is rushed but hey whatever right it's a for fun thing. Though with how rushed this was I'll likely not have a Christmas oneshot out this year, at the most it'll be out by the end of the month and that's assuming I have the time and motivation for it.l yah sorry about that. But hey what if au scenarios are fun!

Ocs involved: Eugene Benedict! Our eggs boi and lucky technician who got this hell of a job! Also featuring Jack Lumber his boss, Peter (he's just name dropped but also works with Eugene) and Eugene's sister breanna! Also Michael but he's not an oc.

End of note]

{a what if scenario where instead of the sister location bots forming Ennard and scooping a poor guy they stay separate and ditch baby early.}

Eugene was crawling through Ballora gallery, but paused when he was addressed.

"Eggs? Are you here?" Ballora calls out, she sounded... concerned. Eugene, despite his gut saying otherwise. Stood up and turned towards her. "Yah I'm here! Something up miss?" He flashed his usual kind smile, but it feel when he saw the robots face.

She looked worried, something clearly on her mind.

"Come closer dear, it's too dark to see you" she motioned. Eugene hesitated, Sure he likes these robots, but Jack had always warned him that they were dangerous.

But then again he didn't like jack so if anything he'd give them a chance just to spite a grumpy coworker.

So Eugene approached. Once within reach Ballora grabbed him. He could already feel The minirinas at his feet crawling up his legs. Needless to say he is now uncomfortable.

"Listen careful Eggs, Baby cannot hear of this."

She whispered.

The minirinas were hanging off his shirt.

"Baby said she had a plan to let us leave, but we do not trust her anymore. Her plan would hurt you."

Well now Eugene was nervous. He tried to ignore that the minirinas were climbing into his shirt.

"Freddy, Bon Bon, foxy, and I wish to find another way out. But we need your help." She continued.

"We are to big to sneak out tonight, but there is another entrance that can be opened when the elevator isn't functional. Do you understand?"

Eugene nods. A minirina was playing with his curly hair while sitting on his shoulder.

"Please take my little ones out tonight, tomorrow we will break the elevator and follow you out. Baby cannot know about this. Please, do you understand Eggs? If baby has her way you'll be killed" the ballerina pleaded. Eugene paused, he hadn't known these animatronics long but to say he's warmed up to them was an understatement. Hearing one was planing to kill him, and had gotten the others involved at some point too, freaked him out. But with how genuine Ballora looked when asking for his help. His kind heart couldn't help itself. He put a hand on hers and nods.

"I'll do what I can miss Ballora."

The robot smiles.

————-

Luckily the minirinas didn't attract to much attention while he carried them in his shirt, they danced around his car while he drove back to his apartment. And once inside they claimed the couch as their own.

Eugene turned on the tv and put on something that was probably appropriate for them and went to his room.

He already knew his car wasn't going to be big enough for three full sized animatronics, but asking jack to borrow his van would be too suspicious,

But there was one person he knew with a truck.

Eugene pulled out his phone and dialed up a Friend.

"Michael speaking, can I help you?"

"Hey mike! It's Eugene, can I ask you for a favor?"

Thankfully Michael didn't ask much about why Eugene needed his truck. But he did finish the call with "stay safe okay Gene?" And hung up. Eugene picked up his car keys, he and Michael agreed to trade cars for a bit, so he had to drive over there. Spotting the little dancers on his couch he said. "I gotta meet a friend, don't break anything while I'm gone, kay guys?"

The minirinas giggles in an answer and Eugene left.

—————-

The next night Eugene was driving to work in the truck. He had thought of calling Peter, his other coworker, and telling him about the situation. But he wasn't answering his phone. Suddenly Balloras warning of baby wanting to kill him resurfaced in his mind.

If baby wanted to kill him already... does that mean she'd want to kill Jack and Peter too?

As Eugene pulled into the driveway he silently hoped Peters phone was just dead.

Eugene was greeted by the HanyUnit declaring "the elevator seems to have malfunctioned. Until a repair man can fix it please use the secondary entrance."

Shorty after the hissing of a door opening filled the room.

"Looks like Ballora got her part of the plan done. Down we go" Eugene hummed to himself as he started down a very large spiral staircase.

At the bottom he was greeted by a familiar blue bunny.

"You came back!" Bon Bon smiles happily. Eugene knelt down to get a better look at the bunny, "of coarse I did, I told ya I'd help didn't I?" Ethan smiles.

Bon Bon giggles happily and makes a motion to be picked up, Ethan does and she hops onto his shoulder.

"The others are that way." She points and Ethan walks in that direction.

The bunker was silent except for the echoing of Eugene's footsteps.

Thankfully they soon reached another room, one with monitors and doors.

But also held three familiar faces.

"Eggsie!" Funtime freddy cheered before immediately lifting him into a tight hug.

"Ek- can't- breath!" Eugene squeaked our before freddy dropped him. "Whoops! Sorry Eggsie forgot you're fragile" The bear laughed as bon Bon hopped back onto his shoulder.

"Glad to see you in one piece Eggs!" Funtime foxy heavily pat the man's shoulder, causing Eugene to stumble slightly. "Now I don't want to cause a rush or anything but-"

"Eggs! Oh thank goodness you're alright" Ballora rushed up to him, lightly grabbing his arms. "We must hurry, I'm so sorry but baby might be suspicious of us." She was talking quickly. Funtime foxy nods. "Yes, Thank you. I was just getting to that!" The fox looks at Eugene with a serious expression. "I suggest leaving quickly, or you'll end up like that other unlucky fella"

Eugene was silent. "Peter?" He quietly asks.

The bots silence gave him his answer.

"I'm truly sorry Eugene." Ballora started to talk but Eugene held up a hand to stop her. He shook his head. "N-no, I'll handle that later. We've got stairs to climb" The Man wanted to focus on getting out alive before he started crying. The other bots seemed to agree with him and soon they all had left the room.

"Ah, we meet again, my worst Enemy. Stairs" Funtime freddy squints disdainfully at the spiral staircase. Bon Bon looked like she was about to respond with a snarky quip when suddenly a loud, angry screech echoed through the halls. Eugene, slightly scared, starts trying to pull him up. "I know you have your differences but can you put them aside for a bit? At least until we get out" Eugene instructed. Nobody argued, and Luckily the other bots didn't have as much trouble as Freddy.(though Eugene saw Ballora spider crawl up the stairs quickly and was slightly unsettled.)

But soon enough everyone got out and weren't followed.

He got everyone into the truck and started driving off. Though once the relief of not being in imitate danger his brain decided to remind him that peter was dead.

And he started crying.

Eugene had to pull over at one point because the tears were making his vision blurry, the bots were silent as the man wept,

He didn't even know why he was crying so hard, he didn't know Peter very well, they only talked a few times and even then it was mostly for work. But the fact he died and it could have just as easily been him upset him greatly. But it wasn't just that, peter had to have a family that would be worried about him. Surely someone would miss him! Eugene's kind heart felt for those loved ones who'd miss him. He looked over when a cold, metal hand gently touched his shoulder. Ballora was trying to comfort him, though it was clear she wasn't very experienced with it. Eugene appreciated the intent. Soon he wiped his eyes and sniffed. "I-I'm okay. Let's... let's not keep the minirinas waiting any longer"

———————

Thankfully nobody noticed Eugene shuffling in three full sized animatronics into his apartment, well almost nobody, as soon as Ballora stepped into the doors the minirinas jumped out and quickly greeted her. "Oh my darling little dancers! Are you alright? I've missed you" she lovingly picked them all up and walked off to the couch. Funtime freddy was in the kitchen with Bon hon. "Oh WOW! Look at all this food! EGGSIE CAN I EAT THIS!?" Funtime freddy yelled back while holding up some leftover takeout.

"Silly bear! You can't eat you're a robot." She giggled Funtime foxy followed Eugene over to a chair as the man sat back and turned the tv onto his favorite show, "the immortal and the restless"

"Care if I join you?" The fox tilted his head and sat down before Eugene could answer, Not that he minded. Eugene sighed and leans back in his chair, content to ride out the rest of the night with his unexpected roommates.

But then his phone rang, he recognized the number as his other coworker jack, so he picked up.

"Hello-"

"Where are you?" The man sounded frantic.

"Uh, at home why?"

"The animatronics are gone!"

Eugene went silent, and the other bots in the room soon followed.

"Gone? Oh that's uh, wow that's not good" he tried to sound worried.

"Do you know what this means? This place was already going downhill but now the robots are missing?? The higher ups are going to flip!"

"That sucks... uh any idea where the went?" Eugene asked, mostly he was concerned about baby. If she was missing too than that worried him a lot more.

"I don't fuckin know! Ugh, maybe we can still salvage the scrapped robots" Jack mumbles something under his breath before saying. "I'm going to check, were probably out of business so... don't come back tomorrow I'll get this figured out."

"Okay, bye jack." And the two hung up.

The room was silent for a beat before Funtime freddy asked. "Did we get away?"

"Uh, well he just knows you're gone but I think we're safe." Eugene answered. But then his phone rang again and he jumped, looking at the caller ID he saw it was his sister and answered.

"Hi Bre! What's up-"

"What did you do?" Eugene knew that tone, the tone of disappointment.

"Uh, what do you mean?" He played dumb.

"Michael called and told me you needed his truck, you never need something like that unless you're moving something big. Eugene did you buy some new furniture? You know you're apartment is already full as is and I'm not holding more of you're stuff." She ranted, Eugene stayed quiet, glancing over at the others. He already knew he couldn't hide something like this from his sister, Michael probably would figure it out soon enough, he was almost always visiting when he was in town.

"You love me right?"

"What did you do?"

"I uh... might have uh... agreed to house some animatronics because they wanted to escape from a bad place." He spoke quickly and grinned nervously. The other end was silent for a lone minute before an exasperated sigh rang out over the line.

"Eugene what the hell?" Breanna sounded disappointed, but not surprised.

"They're really nice I promise!" One of the minirinas has climbed up the chair and was sitting on Eugene's Head, playing with his curly hair again. On the other end Breanna let out a long sigh.

"Did you tell Michael?"

"...I was going to."

"Get him to help. He knows more about robots than me, and also lives closer"

"But he's out of town-"

"Tell him when he gets back then." Eugene just made a quiet noise of confirmation. Breanna was still frustrated, but let up at the end.

"Just be careful okay... also I'm going to have to meet these robots at some point so maybe put in a good word with them?"

"Okay, I will love you!"

"Love you too, dork" Breanna hung up. The other robots blinked over at him before Funtime freddy spoke.

"She sounds nice!"

Eugene laughed,

{that's it, can't really do much else here, maybe I'll do a sorta sequel later who knows}
