Author's note: Sorry for the wait. I participated in a May writing event where I had to write a oneshot every day for the entire month, so I didn't have much time to work on this. I promise you, this story will get finished :), I just hope I have some people reading this and I'm not shouting to an empty room.

Freddy stepped out of the back room, having watched Puppet's failed attempt at stopping the purple man. It made his blood boil, or at least it would have, if he had blood.
The animatronic growled, rusted metal grating in his throat as he approached the purple man.

William turned, ears pricking at the sound of heavy metal footsteps.
The sound echoed in the empty pizzeria, and William could almost hear the laughs of children, slowly devolving into screams.
He stared into the cold, dead metal eyes of the animatronic bear, and as they filled with black, William raised his axe.
Freddy struck first, lunging towards William with an agility he would have thought impossible for a robot. The animatronic tried to pin William, instead getting blocked by the axe.
William grunted as he was pushed backwards, tripping over his own feet. He managed to get his balance, ramming the axe into Freddy's side. The metal blade sank into him, screeching against the metal endoskeleton, before being wrenched out again.
Freddy overbalanced, crashing to the floor, before staggering to his feet again.
His fur covered fingers closed around William's arm with a grip that could only be achieved by an animatronic. The man hissed, trying in vain to wrench his arm away.
Freddy's eyes flickered blue, and he growled. "Y-you shouldn't beee here."
Eyes black again, another voice, as angry as the first, spoke. "We know who you are."
William transferred the axe to his free hand, before raising the weapon, slamming it, blade first into the animatronic's neck. He smashed it down, metal screeching against metal.
He laughed, he laughed because he was alive and it wasn't and he had won again.

Foxy heard Freddy go down, and he jolted, fear coursing though his metal body. He reached up, paw knotting in the human's shirt as he pulled the human back further into pirate cove.
"What b-be yer name?"
"Mike…" The human… Mike, was hesitant, scared.
Mark had finally quieted down somewhat.
Good. Foxy needed to think now.
"M-Mike, you need to hellllllp the oth-others."
Foxy was scared now, terrified even, but he had a human, an ally. As he had been trying to convince the others for years, not all adults were bad.
Mike stood frozen, hands clenched in fists.
"You're not going to kill me?"
Foxy frowned. "K-kill? Why would we d-do that?"
Mike laughed bitterly. He laughed a hysterical, humorless laugh, and Foxy got the sense that something was very, very wrong.

Fritz clutched at the tablet, eyes glued to the screen as his mind raced. His heart pounded against the walls of his chest, battering his rib cage in an uneven, anxiety induced beat.
Mike had stepped into pirate's cove. And he hadn't come out.
"Oh god, oh god, oh god…"
Fritz flipped onto another camera.
Bonnie, eyes red again, stepped out of the storage closet. He payed no mind to the security office, instead heading directly into the party room.
The rabbit didn't stand a chance, and in the back of Fritz's mind, he found the sudden change in behavior jarring.
In the front of his mind, Fritz was simply panicking.
He put down the tablet just as Bonnie fell to the ground, mangled and leaking oil.
He didn't notice the strange chill in the stuffy office air.
