William sat by himself in the Hurricane community library. He always came down to the library whenever he needed to do some serious thinking. He lived in a very busy noisy apartment complex where it was really hard for him to focus so he always needed to be somewhere quiet to work on his projects. He smiled down at his sketch of an animatronic yellow bunny.

William worked at a toy factory where he was just a part of an assembly line. Although the job paid alright, William always wanted to do more. William wanted to create and be in charge of his own business and he couldn't do that currently as things are. William has always loved robotics and that has always separated him from everyone else. When he was a kid, he would spend every recess working on his newest project instead of playing with the other kids. The kids always saw him as odd, but he didn't mind. William was always able to relate to machines better than other people. After all machines were the only thing that truly made him happy. But he could never take them home.

Suddenly the doors to the library flung open and a skinny young man with brown hair around the same age as William walked in. The man was rushing around looking for a book on the shelf, but couldn't seem to find it. Then the man noticed William and looked at the book William had right next to him. "It seems you beat me to it huh," the man said. William didn't say anything, but took a quick glance at the book which included the history of robotics and about important people who made such big strides in the field. William had hoped reading it would give him some ideas for his next project.

The man then glanced down at the sketch William had made. "Did you draw that? It looks really good."

"Thanks," William muttered without looking up. The man then frowned and seemed to be thinking how to continue the conversation.

"I've always really liked animatronics. I remember as a kid I went with my family to Disney world and they had so many cool animatronics on the rides. I also remember some movies I saw as a kid had some really cool animatronics."

William glanced up at the now smiling man.

"Finally someone understands that robotics isn't such a waste of time." The man's grin got even wider.

"So what are you going to make that animatronic for?" William sighed he honestly hadn't really thought that far.

"I'm not entirely sure, but I have an idea that I can make it as a suit and a robot. Like you would be able to wear it but once you were done wearing it you could turn on a switch and it would turn into a regular animatronic."

William was prepared for this man to see him as an absolute freak. "That is so cool! That is probably the coolest thing that I have ever heard! I can't-"

"Shhh," the librarian hissed at the man who blushed and sat down across from William.

"You know I've had a few sketches of an animatronic I've come up with myself. Would you like to see?" William studied the man to see if he was mocking him just like everyone else had ever done, but the man's smile was genuine.

"Sure. Let's see what you got." The man beamed and reached into his pocket to unfold a piece of paper and passed it over to William. William looked at the picture to see a smiling bear with a top hat and had a microphone in front of him.

"This looks really good are you planning on opening up some kind of theme park or something?"

The man scratched the back of his neck. "Actually I have dreams of opening up a restaurant and the animatronics would be entertainers. It would be the first of its kind."

William froze. This was a really ambitious idea that has never been done before. It could be a big success or an absolute failure. This man might actually have bigger dreams than William has ever had. It was really inspiring.

"That's a pretty neat idea. Do you have any partners or people who are going to work with you or are you doing this on your own?" The man's smile fell.

"It's actually something I'm doing by myself. Everyone I've told about it has laughed in my face." The man paused and William could clearly see a light bulb go off in the man's head.

"Hey what about you?" William looked puzzled.

"Me?"

"Yes you! You're the only person who has actually considered my idea and you have some pretty great ideas yourself."

"I-I don't know."

"I think we would be a great team and with both of our passions in robotics I think this could work. You can be involved with construction and maintenance while I am involved with actual business behind it. What do you say? We can be partners."

William considered the proposition for a moment. He had been wanting to leave his job at the toy factory for a while and be the owner of some robotics company. He would have never thought he might be the co-owner of some family restaurant with an energetic young man. But it could definitely be his chance to really get into the robotics business. Also this may be his only chance to make a friend. His first friend.

William took a deep breath and sighed. "Partners." The man smiled.

"I knew there was something special about you. My name is Henry Emily."

"William Afton."

"Let's exchange numbers we can reach each other at. The first thing we should do is find a location for the restaurant."

"Sounds good to me." They exchanged the numbers and then Henry had to go. Henry promised he would call William soon so they could schedule a time to seek out some locations. William smiled to himself and continued his sketch of the yellow rabbit. Maybe he wasn't just stuck at some dead end job after all.
