Disclaimer and Important Note: Some more dying is going to happen in this chapter. Who dies and why? Well, you gotta read to find out! Keep in mind that it's a little...bloody.
I'm finished with school, so it might give me a chance to write up some things a little quicker, though I estimate it will still be around bi-monthly.
Also...
DO NOT MENTION ANY SPOILERS FOR SECURITY BREACH ON REVIEWS. Sorry for the loud voice. There are still people who hadn't seen or played the game, but there will not be spoilers related to the game. Even though I'm taking some of these "spoilers" in account to influence the story, there will be no spoiling in the reviews. Whoever spoils stuff will be banished to the shadow realm.
Guest: After seeing footage from the game, I enjoy Glamrock Freddy and Sun. Both are really wholesome beings, though that's all I can say without major spoilers.
Emma Ross was keeping herself occupied in the restroom, as the room became more and more silent outside and inside. She had got no response from Kalpack, but he said that he will text her to start doing some sabotage. The problem was that as she was waiting, the lights went out, as she immediately had her phone flashlight on. "The hell?" Ross thought, as she got nervous. Is the whole Pizza Plex shut off? Is this what it was like when everyone left?
Ross became relieved when the lights went back on, albeit dim. However, she waited for something from Kalpack, only to get no response from him. Uncomfortable, she sent a text to him. The message that she got on her phone instead was something that made it clear that something was wrong.
"Text unable to be sent."
"What the hell is going on?" Ross checked her connection. No signal? Was she dropped off the face of the earth? She couldn't wait any longer. She was going to have to do what Kalpack asked her to do. Then, she would probably have to get to Kalpack or get out of this joint.
She got out from the stall she was hiding in and left the restroom. The door was still unlocked. At least, she didn't need to worry about sleeping in the restroom for the night. As she got out of the restroom, she didn't notice the cleaner bot with a worried expression from its eyes, as she nearly tripped on the thing. She almost rammed her right foot into it, as she saw the bot try to speak to her with a series of bleeps and blips. For the cleaner bot, it was scared on what has happened and wanted someone to be with as comfort.
Emma Ross's response? "What a waste of money..."
She immediately kicked the cleaner bot over, as it went onto it's side. The raise of volume from the cleaner bot, as it tried to get back up as its wheel were revving from flat ground. "Kalpack is right. Whole place is made and catered towards brats." Emma wondered down the hallway she was in, as she had her screwdriver ready. The problem was that she didn't feel safe here. The Pizza Plex was different in the dark. She came across a hallway with large LED screens showcasing advertisements of places across the Pizza Plex, such as Chica of the Sea and Moondrop candy.
She wanted to try to figure out what to do, until she heard two people talking. Who the hell could be at the Pizza Plex with her? She's going to get caught.
Unless...
"Who is this woman you mentioned again, Freddy?" Montgomery said, as the Glamrocks followed him down a small hallway. "She visited me last night and we shared a talk. She was a part of the night shift, but she still should be here." Freddy explained, as the nearby entrance to the Parlor of Pizza was tempting to get a bite. "Whatever is happening, I need a talk with her. I want a game that isn't rigged." Roxanne remarked, since her latest attempts at trying to beat Cyborg Force 2057 failed, since she discovered that it was impossible to take no damage in the game.
Despite Freddy wanting to tell Roxanne that her game wasn't important, something broke their concertation. Logan Bailey appeared from the corner, terrified out of his mind, as he stumbled in front of the Glamrocks. "Who's that?" Chica said, as Freddy tried to get his attention. "Hey! Excuse us for a moment?" Freddy called out of him, however even when Logan noticed them, he looked behind him, and he let out a scream before running down another hallway that was in front of him. "Not surprising to get deja vu already." Montgomery mentioned, while all 4 of them heard a shriek. Something animalistic. To their surprise, Moondrop was crawling on all four of his limbs, chasing after Logan. The problem is now clear for everyone.
"Oh boy..." Montgomery muttered, as Chica and Roxanne looked down the hallway where both Logan and Moondrop went through. "We gotta help him!" Chica said, as Roxanne looked down the hallway. "I think I can take them on." Roxanne started to put her hands together, cracking some knuckles. "Wait, Roxanne! It might be dangerous!" Freddy tried to stop her from leaving, but Roxanne wasn't concerned. "Don't worry about me! Find the other nightguards!" Roxanne flashed a grin, as she balled up her fists. "I live dangerously, guys. I know what to do.."
The other Glamrocks didn't stop him, as Roxanne gave all the confidence she needed to show them that she was good on her own, as she ran off to help Bailey. "She's right. There should be other people we can get to help!" Chica said, as Freddy's group went down the hallway where Logan was chased from. "And not a moment to lose!" Freddy remarked, as the Glamrocks ended up reaching the ground floor of the atrium. The main stage, which they had performed their tunes and songs of entertainment was dormant. There were some doors with the words of "Staff Only" that were only replaced with security shutters, as Freddy went to try to lift one of them up. "Montgomery, help me here!" Freddy was trying to get the shutter up, but it couldn't budge. Even as Montgomery was using his arms to get the shutter up, the metal wedge didn't budge. Almost as if it was locked in place.
"Thing ain't going to budge." Montgomery said, as Freddy pondered on where to get help. "Where are the other nightguards? Shouldn't they were be more?" Freddy wanted to think on how he could possibly get to the staff areas of the Pizza Plex, but a loud thundering of cymbals broke his train of thought. "Guys, look!" Chica pointed up to the 2nd floor balcony of the atrium, where a thundering part of machinery, which was the Music Man, was staring black-eyes daggers at them, before it retreated somewhere else. "I thought things were meant to be bad, but with that thing up there, I think we're dealing with anarchy." Montgomery said, as Freddy spied some stairs to get up to the 2nd floor. "The bad kind of anarchy, right?" Chica said, knowing how Roxanne liked to act. "I'm talking about chaos."
The Glamrocks got up the stairs, as Freddy looked around for the Music Man. "Where did it go?" "Wait, is that what I think it is?" Montgomery saw the sign for his own golf course, as a thought entered his robotic mind. "I need to protect my place! It might be planning on tearing it up!" Montgomery said, as he started to run down the hallway. "Montgomery, wait!" Freddy yelled, as there was a faint sound of a possible scream.
Was that the sound of a screaming kid?
"Freddy, come on!" Chica said, as the two of them went down the other direction in the hopes of finding someone to help. As the two went to find the source of the scream, the two came onto a folk in the hallways again. "Which way did that scream come from?" Freddy looked at both ends of the hallways, but Chica noticed a random staff bot speed by up ahead from the right. "If we can't find anything, can we regroup at the atrium?" Chica asked Freddy quick, as he knew they needed to split up. "If you find a security guard, make sure you help them, Chica!" Freddy said, as that was all the encouragement she needed for her artificial heart.
"I... I see you after this whole thing blows over!" Chica gave an encouraging smile, as Freddy went down the other hallway to look for the source of the scream. "Alright, Chica! You got this!" Chica said to herself, as she went down the hallway in front of her to do her duty.
"I think I see the entry to the staff hallway down there. We should see someone in no time." Vanny said, as her and Gregory were heading down an empty part of the Pizza Plex, a large hallway with random signs and advertisements all over. "Vanny, I have a question I want to ask." Gregory was warming up towards Vanny, but there was something that was bugging him. Something about her sudden appearance. Vanny claimed that she was forced to be hidden in the Pizza Plex, but how did she get out? "What is it, Gregory?"
"I was wondering.. Have you ever got the chance to meet Freddy and the others? Or did they not have you see them?" Gregory asked her, wanting to clarify things. "Well, the Glamrocks never had the chance of meeting me, silly!" Vanny got out her knife, as she did a little twirl trick with the knife in front of Gregory. "If we do see Freddy, I can introduce myself to her. You and I can be best friends to him. I was actually thinking of having you meet him first. He's the leader of the band, but-"
"Hey! What do you think you're doing?!" Vanny immediately hid her knife, when both her and Gregory heard the shout of Emma Ross coming across the two. "Don't mind me, miss. We're just heading over to help this boy look for his friends." Vanny said in a polite manner, but Gregory was noticing that Vanny was keeping the blade hidden.
"You're not a worker here! Even if they are, you think people would want to see you?!" Emma said, though Gregory was uncomfortable with this woman. Vanny started to tighten her grip on Gregory's hand, until Emma suddenly grabbed his other hand. "Come on. I'm taking you to security."
"What are you doing?" Gregory said, as he felt Emma give a tug. "Just like I said, I'm taking you somewhere where we can wait out this surge."
"But we need to look for this boy's friends." Vanny tried to remain polite, but Emma had other plans. "Oh, just because his friends are lost, doesn't mean he can wait for him at where they keep all the lost kids?" Emma was trying to act superior to Vanny, but Gregory was uncomfortable at Ross's presence. He didn't like being alone with Vanny at first, but Emma came out of nowhere, wanting to take him away. "Could you let go of me?"
"Come on, kid." Emma said, as she tugged him again, this time more forcibly. "I'm trying to help him, you're not even part of staff here." Vanny said, raising her voice, as Emma gave a look of authority at her. "Says the furry wearing a bunny suit."
"Let me go, please!" Gregory said, as he felt his arms being tugged at from both sides by Vanny and Emma. "Let the boy go, you're starting to hurt him!" Vanny said, growing frustrated at Emma. "Like you will!"
"Vanny!"
"Gregory, I'm trying!" Vanny said, as Emma gave an another hard tug, as Vanny made sure that she still had her knife in her other hand. "I'm calling security!" Emma yelled, as she tighten her grip on Gregory, causing him to let out a cry, as her nails were starting to dig into his palm. This caused a reaction from Vanny, as Gregory felt her let go of his hand. In a booming voice that was a departure from the softness of it.
"STOP!"
The next thing that Gregory saw was Vanny having the knife that she kept be plunged into the chest of Emma. Many thoughts immediately erupted into Gregory's mind, as he saw the red that was appearing on Emma's vest, but what horrified him was what Vanny did next. She didn't stab her once. She pulled out the blade, as she immediately stabbed her again. She did it a few quick times, until Gregory yelled "No!", almost as a command, as Vanny snapped back to it. Emma in a state of shock fell near the LED screen, as a bloody handprint was left behind on the screen. The result of Emma trying to cover her wounds.
Vanny looked at Gregory, as he was terrified at what he saw. Emma's body ended up leaning against a LED screen wall that advertised the Glamrocks, as rapid breaths and grunts of pain emitted from Ross, seeing as she was still alive yet bleeding.
"G-g-g- Gregory! I can explain! Please!" Vanny said, as there was blood on her hands and on the knife she had. "You... what have you done to her..?!" Gregory struggled to get the words out, as he was taking steps away from Vanny. "I didn't have a choice, she was hurting you!"
"But...look at what you done!" Gregory said, as Emma bled behind Vanny. The body of the lawyer in a state of shock. "She was dangerous. She wouldn't be an issue any longer. If you could come with me.." Vanny said, trying to return to the soft voice that lured Gregory earlier, but Vanny was annoyed that Emma had dropped her cover. "...N-...No! I don't trust you!"
This might have caused some emotions to stir up in Vanny, though there was the chance that Glitchtrap might have had a role in it. Both of them didn't notice Glitchtrap, though his eyes were glowing purple with his fist clenched. "Vanny. It's pointless. Kill him. Now."
"Gregory.. I don't want this to ruin our friendship.. Please.. We can still be friends." Vanny said, but she was holding out the knife in front of Gregory. "Get away from me!" Gregory begged Vanny, but she was slowly advancing towards him, drawing her attention away from Emma, who was still leaning against the wall, but was trying to become steady.
"I know it's hard to understand. But.." Vanny said, as she showed the knife to Gregory. "I can't let you leave me. I won't make it hurt as much as intended, I promise." Vanny said, as his eyes widened. She... she wanted to stab him!?
Suddenly, Vanny felt someone immediately put their arms around her waist. Emma, who was still bleeding, but wanting to get revenge on the woman who tried to kill her, was trying to force Vanny to the ground, reaching for her knife. Gregory saw what was happening, seeing it as an opportunity to run away. "NO!" Vanny saw him leave, as she was trying to force Emma off her. When she did, Emma fell onto the checkered floor, as Vanny kicked the back of her head, as Emma let out an actual scream of pain. When Vanny turned her attention back to Gregory, he was already at the end of the hallway, trying to hide.
"GREGORY!" Vanny yelled, as Gregory heard the fury in her voice. He ran down the hallway, as he can hear her footsteps behind him in a distance. He needed to escape her. Needed to hide. The problem was how was he supposed to lose her in a mall. "GREGORY! YOU GET BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!" Vanny's voice was enough for Gregory to know that she was out for his blood.
He ran downstairs from a set of stairs, as he turned right to head deeper into the mall, looking for an empty store to hide in. However, it appeared none of the doors to get in the stores were unlocked. He needed something to do, until he saw the set of double doors nearby. The words, "Staff Only" were a sudden relief, since Gregory saw the lack of a security shutter. Were the doors locked? Gregory immediately pushed at the doors, as they gave way for him.
The maintenance hallways were still red, yet they were more linear. He wasn't out of breath. He still had stamina. He kept running, as he can hear Vanny's voice behind him. "GREGORY! THERE IS NOWHERE LEFT TO GO! COME BACK HERE! DON'T YOU WANT TO BE HAPPY?!" Well Vanny herself didn't sound happy, either.
Gregory kept his lungs almost gave out, as he went into a room to hide. He closed the door, as he was in a small office of some sort. A minor security office for day shift security guards? Gregory didn't know. He was terrified. He could tell that Vanny will break the door open and kill him. However, he saw something that he was surprised at. There was an open vent next to a toolbox and the vent cover. They must had been doing maintenance even before most of the workers left. He was cornered, but Gregory had no choice. Getting onto his hands and knees, he crouched down and crawled into the vent.
There was a loud smash of the door opening, as there was a red glow that was near the opening of the vent. "GREGORY! DON'T LEAVE ME!" Vanny yelled again, as Gregory was scrambling through the vent, unaware on where it goes.
Jack Watson ran down the hallway, as fast as he can. It was following him. Chasing him, as Music Man gave off a sound of cymbals crashing together. Cymbals caked with blood. Jack had little to think. He couldn't think. His life was on the life and Music Man was hot on his tail. Jack didn't know how long he could run for, until there was something that was dead ahead of him. It was a branching of hallways of a left and right, however in front of him was a half-opened gated shutter that led inside of a green-colored room. He didn't have a chance to see the sign. There was an opening gap of the gated shutter and the floor, where he can slide through. Taking the chance, Jack dove for the opening and slid right in.
Music Man didn't have available hands to lift up the shutter nor did it appear that he want to break through it. As Jack got up from his feet, Music Man stared at him with his black eyes. The cymbals clashing together again, as he has lost prey. Jack backed away from the shutter, as Music Man backed away. It gave a look at Jack. The look that the moment he leaves through the shutter when he believes the coast would be clear, it would get him.
"This is bad... This is really bad!" Jack could only think, as he suddenly realized where he ended up. He was in the lobby for Monty's Gator Golf. It was decorated in green colors, where some fake jungle trees were set up around the lobby. There was a golf ball spinner ride for tots, but Jack was too old for it. He checked his phone again. Still no signal. "I need to regroup with Gregory and the others.. But with that thing outside, how am I supposed to get rid of it's attention on me?! Dad should know that I'm gone for too long! He's probably calling me, isn't he?" Jack was thinking over his predicament, as a staff bot looked at him from a sign-in table. "Please obtain your golf club and golf ball before entering." the bot said in a monotone voice.
"Get the doors open! They are still outside!" Harper said to Evelyn, as they both pushed and pulled on the doors that could had led them to the atrium, however it was no use. "Both Gregory and Jack are in trouble! How are we supposed to get out of here?!" Evelyn was now panicking, as everyone around her were getting separated from her. There was her parents, who she was uncertain if they knew what was happening. Cousin Skeeter was separated with his fate unknown. Now Gregory and Jack were stuck with that spider animatronic chasing them.
"Maybe there is another way out?" Harper said, as Evelyn had to follow her. The two girls started to check for unlocked doors, but were forced to backtrack downstairs, as Harper found an unlocked door. "Over here!"
Both Harper and Evelyn got the door open, as there were in a completely different section of the Pizza Plex. It was part of a small playground that was designed to be a distraction, due to the company still working on the Pirate's Cove section of the Pizza Plex. There was a pirate ship structure that kids can go in, along with a statue of Foxy nearby. The floors were like cushions to walk on, as Evelyn and Harper felt from their shoes. "I don't recall seeing this?" Evelyn said, as Harper already saw the door to get out back to the hallways. "We're lost! How are we supposed to get back to the atrium?!" Harper said, as the door was unlocked. "There still has to be people around here? Maybe we can look around for a map?"
"Where do we even get a map?" Harper said, as they took note of the arrows on the wall nearby. While the Pizza Plex was disorienting to travel through, the arrows made an attempt to show people which way was which.
Then Evelyn noticed one arrow sign that clicked something in her memory. It was a sign that showed which way the amusement park was. Then, it had hit her. "Wait... My plushie was at the amusement park! I left it at the amusement park!" The spoiled side that Evelyn's parents didn't want her to have were manifesting at the worst time. "Evelyn, where are you going?" Harper said, as Evelyn was very eager to get the plushie that she left behind.
"We need to get my plushie!"
"Your plushie? What about Jack and Gregory? They still might be in trouble!" Harper was being more sensible, but the two started to bicker.
"But I can't lose my plushie! Do you know how many tickets we had to get?!"
"We?! I wanted to help you get that plushie!"
"I offered you some of my tickets, though!"
"But I only wanted a high score on that one game!"
The two would bicker, until Evelyn would storm off to head to the amusement park by herself. Ignorant to the danger that would be on her tail soon. "Evelyn, come back!" Harper yelled at her, but Evelyn had her mission set in motion. Harper didn't know what to do. She was irritated to which she didn't want to follow her, but she saw something else that reminded her about Cousin Skeeter. There was a set of doors colored in red with the glaring message, "Below Level Maintenance Only".
Maybe Skeeter was forced to head underground to bypass the security shutters? She checked the doors, as she gave them a pull. They were unlocked? She peered through the double doors to see a set of lights with a spiral-style staircase. Filled with determination, she started to go down the stairs..
Emma Ross wasn't in a good state. Well, makes sense for a woman who is dying from getting stabbed multiple times by some random homicidal crazy woman with a bunny costume. Not to mention that said bunny woman struck the back of her head. Maybe there was a medical station in the Pizza Plex. "E...eth...Ethan..." Emma muttered, as she felt blood pool up into her mouth. Vanny's knife might had struck her lung or stomach.
Emma felt some balance come along, as she had been using the wall as support. Giving behind many bloody handprints to which it was like a red pattern in the form of a line. She walked slowly, as she started to see something in front of her. Only a good feet away. Is that a way to get to Roxy's Canyon? She kept walking, as her body felt numb and was in still in pain.
"Keep on...tru...trucking... keep on... keep...ke-...keep..."
Suddenly, Emma felt a sharp pain. A familiar pain. On her back, as her body was paralyzed as it fell to the floor. Emma was forced to look up, as she couldn't move her neck. Vanny was staring at her. That frozen expression on Vanny's mask stared back, as she immediately kicked the side of Emma's body. "You just had to have him get away, didn't you? Everything was going so perfect and you had to ruin it, didn't you, Emma?" Vanny's voice wasn't the soft type that Emma heard, as she confronted her and Gregory.
Instead, it was a voice of hate. Pure hatred. Directed at Emma. Cold hostile rage at a lawyer who was surprised that this crazed woman who was killing her knew her. Vanny got up on Emma, as she got her knife ready. "...P...Pl..."
"What's that, Emma?" Vanny gave a mocking question, as she knew Emma was trying to speak for help. "Plea...Please...!"
"Speak up, Emma! Scream! Come on, I want you to SCREAM, Emma!" Vanny yelled at her, as she jabbed her blade into Emma's chest. "Please..! Pleasseeee!"
Vanny started to laugh maniacally, as Emma was pleading for mercy. Her laughs were a mix of mania, rage, and pure sadism. "Emma.. WHY CAN'T YOU JUST DIE!?" Vanny did a swipe of her blade, as she sliced at Emma's throat. A fresh red line appeared, as Vanny finished it off with more and more and more...stabs.
Glitchtrap only stood there near Vanny, as he watched the murder of Emma Ross. It took 5 minutes for Vanny to finish stabbing Emma's body. Vanny got off from the now former lawyer's body, as Vanny wrapped her arms around her knees. The knife being left on the floor, as Glitchtrap could hear a sob from Vanny. He walked towards her, as his eyes glowed purple. He clenched his fist, as Vanny felt euphoria.
"Are you done?" Glitchtrap can only say to Vanny, as she looked up at him through the mask. "Get rid of that rage. All of that sadness is pathetic. You still have a chance. We will find him. His friends are still here, aren't they?" Glitchtrap said to her in a hushed tone, as Vanny went silent. "Get up. Don't let that blood stop you. Doesn't it make you happy, Vanny?"
"...Yes. Yes, it does." Vanny said, as she reached down to grab her knife. "You are to find that boy Gregory and anyone else nearby. They need to be corrected."
"Corrected?"
"Correct them, just as you corrected Emma.." Glitchtrap said, as Vanny started to giggle. She looked down at her gloved hands. They were stained with blood. Parts of her costume were much the same. Glitchtrap was right. Gregory had no right of running away from her. She has to punish him. Many thoughts filled her head. Thoughts of slicing up the boy and whatever friends he had.
All Vanny can do is let out a forceful laugh, as she took one last look at the body of Emma Ross, before she departed for the hunt.
Author's Notes: Ah ha ha ha ha ha!
*maniacally laughing*
It's strange. You wait all night for the game to come out, then you got a whole bunch of YouTubers who managed to get first dibs. Then, some of them try to complete the game in one sitting. Then before you know it. You know the whole story in almost 2 days. FUSION! I'M ONTO YOU, DAMNIT!
Of course, you gotta remember. This fic here isn't canon from the get-go. I may not have a map of the official Pizza Plex and there are so many details I want to add now. It's going to take a good while, until someone makes a Dead Rising-styled brochure map of the Pizza Plex on the wiki.
Because...boi. There is so much stuff in SB that how I don't even know where to begin?
A little thing that I noticed in the game is that the characterization of the Glamrocks are somewhat different than what I imagined, so there is a chance that in the future, the Glamrocks in this AU are going to start to reflect said characterization.
Here's something else I'm doing for a change. I'm making that damn grammar check, because I made so many grammar mistakes it's unfunny! I shall start tomorrow! Ahem..
I may or may not making an one-shot set in the Wonderland AU that concerns a story of two Fazbear Frights characters. My hints? All you need to know that I intend to have a chill ending for the one-shot and that these two are popular elsewhere.
Also, I may or may not reference someone who managed to speedrun the game in 16 minutes, but let's not worry about that...
Merry Christmas and hail Krampus!
