A/N: Hey, guys! In the previous chapter, Vanny had to deal with Glitchtrap, who forced her into his control and exploited her for his own purposes. One night at Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex, Gregory, a child who separated from his friends and was trapped in the club, ran into Vanny, but he luckily received protection from Glamrock Freddy. Aided by him and the night guard Vanessa, he managed to rescue the other robots, who had been tampered with by Vanny, and before dawn, they destroyed Glitchtrap once and for all, freeing the souls that Vanny used for the ritual. Before returning home, Gregory also found out that Glamrock Freddy was so protective of him because he was possessed by Michael Afton, and the other animatronics had been possessed by the souls of the children that were freed by Michael before his death. Now the Golden Freddy arc begins, with the events of Ultimate Custom Night! Let's begin!
Chapter 4: Forgiveness, Redemption and Peace
Golden Freddy/Fredbear's POV
(''Sleep No More- Ultimate Custom Night OST'')
Have you ever felt a grudge for someone? And if so, did it lead you to do horrible things just because of your hatred? Me, Freddy and the others have been through this, we were possessed by five children. If I had already done terrible things before I was even abandoned, this was the worst thing I had done, and I will explain everything to you.
Even though I had an endoskeleton, I felt like an empty shell, pushed only by the spirit inside me. I guess you know of what Michael Afton did, he freed the spirits of all the children killed by his father, the infanticide William Afton. The children who possessed Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy are named Gabriel, Jeremy, Susie, and Fritz, and the child who possessed me died on his birthday, just like Gabriel, while little Charlie took possession of the Puppet, and another little girl, Elizabeth, ended up possessing Circus Baby after her accidental death. Even if at least forty years had passed since those terrible events, I still couldn't leave everything behind, or rather, the spirit couldn't leave everything behind, while the others were already resting in peace for years. My hatred for that being took complete control: when Afton, still inside that suit he had always had to deal with, that Spring Bonnie costume, was definitely dying in a fire, I was still not happy and dragged him in a world I created, a world where me, Freddy, the Puppet and various animatronics from different eras could kill him over and over again, continuously resetting the cycle with each death. On the first cycle, William Afton paid no attention to the music box in the kitchen, so the Puppet attacked him. ''I don't hate you, but you to stay out of my way.'' he told him, before killing him. His voice was that of the little girl who had possessed him for years, Charlotte Emily, better known as Charlie.
After the cycle first reset, Bonnie was dangerously close to the limit of his patience this time around. He was forced to stay in the Pirate Cove with Foxy, the killer kept staring at him through the cameras and his privacy was constantly violated. At one point, he couldn't take it anymore. ''LEAVE ME AND MY GUITAR ALONE!'' he screamed, before charging into the office and repeatedly bashing his guitar on his head. As I looked at everything with a sadistic smile, Bonnie crushed his bones and smashed his head with a punch, killing him. ''That's what you get for disrespecting my privacy! Finally, my revenge is complete, thanks to The One You Shouldn't Have Killed!''
In another cycle, it was Withered Bonnie who killed Afton, beheading him, and said a very peculiar phrase. ''What is this new prison? Is it me trapped, or is it you? Perhaps, it's us both.'' he said. I wasn't paying attention to it at the time, but thinking about it now, it seemed like I had everyone trapped in a hell.
What was the difference between killing Afton myself or letting others kill him? Nothing. Because every time I reset the night, so that it would happen again and again and again, and every time he was killed, I watched everything in the dark. In one cycle, Nightmare Freddy, a distorted version of Freddy, came to his office enraged because he had beaten up his minions, the Freddles, whom he treated like his sons. In fact, sick of hearing their screeching around the office, he had stomped on the five Freddles and they burst into tears, sobbing in Nightmare Freddy's arms. ''You should have left my little ones alone. I am remade, but not by you, by The One You Should Not Have Killed.'' he said, and even when he spoke softly, his deep tone was terrifying. After that, both he and the Freddles bit him until he died. ''What a beautiful gift to relish: a victim who cannot perish. Isn't that right, little ones?''
As you understood, I was so driven by that vengeful spirit that by now everyone referred to me as ''The One You Shouldn't Have Killed''. Sometimes I was the one killing that awful person, sometimes not. My twisted version, Nightmare Fredbear, was teaming up with Nightmare, and they also attacked together. ''We know who our friends are, and you are not one of them!'' he said, as he and Nightmare began to tear him apart with their mouths (they had a second mouth on the belly area).
Nightmare was particularly determined to send that killer to relive the horror he had caused, calling himself his wickedness in the flesh, and Nightmarionne, a distorted version of the Puppet, called himself the fearful reflection that Afton had created, referring obviously to the Puppet, possessed by the first child Afton himself had killed. With what the killer had done, to me, my best friend Spring Bonnie, the kids, Freddy and everyone else, I wanted to torture and kill him for eternity, and had the cycle repeat for years. ''You won't die, but you will wish you could.'' Scrap Baby said. You got that right
If Afton did not keep an eye on everyone or did not meet the demands of some of us, it was a terrible fate Not helping Toy Freddy play that stupid fan-game on the computer? He ragequitted and killed him out of spite.(1) Not giving Rockstar Freddy coins for too long when he wanted to get paid? He got angry and killed him. Not getting Rockstar Bonnie's guitar back for him? He lost his patience and killed him. Not satisfying Chica's musical tastes? She got angry and killed him. Making too much noise in the office? Music Man, right behind him, got mad and killed him by crushing his head between his cymbals. And in one of the countless death cycles, a funny thing happened, funny even for me. Springtrap, Ennard, Mangle, Molten Freddy, and Withered Chica (the damaged Chica from the 1980s, with broken jaws and no hands) were all in the vents, and Withered Chica got stuck in the exit, only Mangle could get through, though I didn't understand how a bunch of messed up wires could get through. The others were terribly frustrated, and it didn't help that Withered Chica was too slow in her movements because she had no hands and had to manage by dragging herself with the electric wires.
''Molten, move over! Your wires are getting entangled in ours!'' shouted Ennard, whose voice was a mix of Baby, Ballora and Funtime Foxy.
''It's not my fault! There is barely even room in here! AND SHE'S IN THE WAY!'' screeched Molten Freddy.
"Move, Chica, you ugly fat fu-'' Springtrap screamed, until Withered Chica finally got through.(2) But it wasn't she who killed Afton, but Mangle.
''He is here, and always watching, The One You Shouldn't Have Killed.''
At the time, I wanted all of this to last forever, but it had been years that seemed like centuries, and this mechanism had to end, sooner or later. So it happened that I met someone who pushed me to stop, and it was the mysterious Old Man Consequences. I will explain how it happened.
(''Sleep No More- Ultimate Custom Night OST-s'')
(''Lavender Town- Pokémon Red & Blue OST'')
I only know that in that umpteenth cycle it was I who killed William Afton. I was causing these resets so often that I didn't even know how many times it had happened, I had lost count. When that new cycle started, I wasn't even in the office anymore. I had ended up directly in a strange and silent place, but I was not alone, as a red crocodile-like figure sitting in front of a pond fishing. Old Man Consequences. ''Why did you bring me here, Old Man Consequences?'' I asked heated up as he had made the new cycle impossible by bringing me here.
''I wanted to talk with you. Let's discuss it by fishing together.'' he said.
''I don't care about fishing. Let me out.'' I replied coldly.
''No.''
''Let me out!'' I said with exasperation.
''No.''
I groaned, half from exasperation and half from nerves. Old Man Consequences was immediately proving quite stubborn. ''LET ME OUT!'' I repeated, even louder than before.
''Not until I tell you everything.'' he said.
At that moment, I had an instinct to smash his face with fists. ''I DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT ARE YOU GONNA SAY! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GOING THROUGH!'' I screamed.
''Yes, I do.'' he replied, maintaining a calm tone. ''It's about the souls.''
I dropped into a sitting position, exasperated. ''What are you talking about?'' I asked.
''We all know that you and your friends were possessed by the souls of the children that that man killed. But now the souls are all free. All but yours. And you don't even know who freed them, I bet.'' Old Man Consequences said.
''It's Afton, isn't it? He destroyed my friends, killing them again.'' he said.
''Michael Afton. What you're referring to is his father William.'' he corrected me, but I didn't even care. ''Michael freed the souls of the other missing children, as well as those of Elizabeth and Charlie. These two souls, along with that of another young boy, were the last ones he freed before his death, but William's reincarnation, the Glitchtrap virus, captured the last two souls, so Michael's spirit intervened to destroy him permanently and save children and souls, this happened last week. Now everyone is resting in peace, and you should too.''
''I don't want to rest in peace! I want to make him pay for what he did to me!'' I blurted out. Despite my screams, however, Old Man Consequences just stood there. But the reality was that he saw the spirit that was inside me.
''Explain yourself better.'' he told me.
''He killed me on my birthday! He destroyed my friends, killing them twice, used my best friend's suit for his evil purposes and corrupted him!'' I shouted.
''So? Gabriel also died on his birthday that night, and he was three years younger than you. But now he, Jeremy, Susie and Fritz have gotten through all of that. Charlie, whose father was William's best friend until he killed her, also gave up. These five children, just before the destruction of Fazbear's Fright, tried to make you happy on what should have been your happiest day, and despite everything, you still weren't happy. You can't go on like this forever.'' he replied sternly.
''I want him to suffer as I did! This is what he deserves!''
Old Man Consequences sighed. ''Will you be satisfied when everything is the way you want it? Will having your revenge satisfy you? What will other souls think? How long will your hatred consume you?'' he asked me, and then I immediately noticed his tone even more strict, yet still calm. I had been really rude to him, and I had disrespected him.
Hearing those questions, I fell silent. I didn't know what to say, and for the first time, I wasn't sure of something. I was silent for several minutes fishing with Old Man Consequences, pondering his questions. Maybe he was right? Maybe I should have rested in peace when Michael freed the other souls? But these feelings that had been transmitted to me by that spirit were too strong... ''I... I don't know...'' I replied. ''There is one thing I have to do.'' I said.
''What?''
''I'll reset the cycle one last time and kill William one more time, then I'll erase this world that I created. This will give me closure. I hope that you understand.''
Old Man Consequences looked at me. He had a look I couldn't understand, but he nodded. ''Alright then. I grant it to you, but only for this time. When it's all over, you'll come back here. '' he said. I nodded and found myself back in the world I had created.
At the last cycle, I was alone. There was none of the other animatronics. I wondered if everyone was unhappy with how I had mastered them in all these cycles that had occurred over the years. When he saw me disappear after putting on that mask, he used something, and he thought he got rid of me, but he was very wrong. When I reappeared, I had the look I had at the time of the Fredbear Family Diner: my hat and bow tie were purple, my golden color was no longer faded and there was no dust or dirt in my body.(3) I grabbed him by the chest so hard that I broke his bones, killing him shortly after. I no longer felt what I felt for over forty years. I returned to the place where I had met the wise Old Man Consequences, and he was still by the pond waiting for me. ''It's all over now.'' I said.
''Good. Now you will have to purify your soul. Follow the instructions I will give you and you can reach Heaven. for starters, release the spirit of the child that has been conditioning you for so long.''
I followed Old Man Consequences' instructions, and the spirit, after exiting my body, dived into the lake, but being incorporeal, there was no splash. ''What now?''
''I suggest you listen to what you hear here.'' Old Man Consequences said.
Following his advice, I focused on the sound that seemed to echo. It was very distorted, and I couldn't understand anything. ''I can't understand.'' I said.
''Listen more carefully and you will understand.''
I waited, and the sound began to get clearer. It was a man's voice screaming like a madman, and I could barely understand what he was saying. The only sentence that was clear to me was ''I HATE'' over and over, while the rest were gibberish screams or what seemed like names to me. ''That voice... William Afton? He will be punished for his actions, won't he?'' I asked.
''That's what I was trying to tell you. And that's why I didn't approve of you doing yourself justice. By trapping William in your world, you are preventing him from finally dying, and in the meantime, he had reincarnated into the Glitchtrap virus, which his son destroyed. Leave the demon to his demons. Let your soul rest.'' Old Man Consequences said.
I noticed that the sound had stopped, and I understood everything. ''Now he will be punished for real.'' I said in a low voice.
''Let Hell punish him. Even Henry Emily said, before his death, that William would go to Hell. You also need to release the spirit that has conditioned your actions for years. Dive into the pond to begin purifying your soul.(4) I'll give you further instructions later. Just listen to my voice and you won't get lost.'' Old Man Consequences said.
For the first time, I smiled at him. ''Thank you. Now I feel much lighter thanks to you.'' I said. Seeing him nod, I didn't hesitate to dive into the pond.
(''Lavender Town- Pokémon Red & Blue OST-s'')
(''Stickerbrush Symphony- Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest OST'')
As soon as I jumped into the water, I realized I didn't see a thing, as if it were night, but I spotted the spirit and heard the voice of Old Man Consequences. ''Can you hear me, Fredbear?'' he asked.
For a moment I was amazed to hear my name. ''Huh? Yeah, I hear you.'' I replied.
''Now that you are in the pond, you need to reach the bottom. It's dark down there, but the spirit of the child who possessed you will help you reach the cave at the bottom by lighting up the nearby area. Stay close to him and you won't have any problems. Once you reach the other side, swim to the surface and reach the coast.'' Old Man Consequences told me.
Even though I was a robot, my weight didn't seem to hold me towards the bottom. I followed the spirit until I reached a narrow cave. Given my size, it wasn't easy for me to avoid banging my head every few seconds. The pond was not very deep, so it didn't take long to reach the surface, but when I got there, it became difficult to stay afloat. ''I have arrived.'' I said, after finally reaching the beach. There was a high mountain ahead of me, but the spirit was gone, perhaps he had floated away to the top.
''Good, Fredbear. You have arrived at the mountain of Purgatory. Purgatory is the place where not fully pure souls must purify themselves in order to reach Heaven. The spirit will go directly to Heaven because he did not do immoral deeds in life, but only after death, but since in life, you have been blinded by the anger felt by this spirit, you must first purify your soul.'' Old Man Consequences said.
I moved on, but when I reached the third area, I was stopped. What was I being punished for? Of wrath, of course. And as a penalty, I had to walk wrapped in a dense cloud of smoke that made me see nothing. I guess this is the punishment for of those who have done bad deeds because they are blinded by anger.(5) It was difficult to go foward like this, and I stumbled, nearly falling off the rocky cliff. ''I can't see anything.'' I murmured.
I heard the wise voice of Old Man Consequences again.''Those who have to redeem themselves from anger must climb the mountain with their vision clouded by smoke and follow examples of meekness. But don't worry, your other senses will help you. Once you have learned your lesson, go on until you have reached the top. The earthly Paradise is at the top of the mountain, and from there you will be able to purify yourself completely.'' he said.
Before continuing, I had to stay for months, maybe years, this was the penalty, at least three years. When the time of my sentence ended, I was no longer enveloped in smoke, and I could continue climbing the mountain, which became steeper and steeper. It was tiring, but in the end, he managed to reach the top. '' I think... I'm... on the top.''
'Well done, Fredbear. Your soul has been purified. You are ready to go to Heaven, and my task is done. Animdude will lead you to the light. Go over it and you will arrive in Heaven.''
I smiled. ''Thank you, Old Man Consequences. I owe you one.'' I said. Even though Old Man Consequences wasn't with me, I thought I saw a smile. Or maybe I imagined it? However, I met the mysterious Animdude, a mysterious blue and white humanoid figure. We animatronics were aware of Animdude, he was kind of like a creator, apart from our constructors, of course.(6) He led me to a light, so I entered it and was carried upwards.
(''Stickerbrush Symphony- Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest OST-s'')
(''SkyTown- Metroid Prime 3 Corruption OST'')
Arriving in Heaven, I saw the spirits of other children who had possessed the animatronics, including the one who had owned me. Charlie, Elizabeth, Gabriel, Jeremy, Susie and Fritz were happily playing with balloons. I even noticed Baby. Michael had really set them free then. I also saw my best friend, Spring Bonnie, who looked like during the old times at the Fredbear Family Diner: no faded colors, no damage, and best of all, no corpses in his costume. '' Spring Bonnie! '' I exclaimed, hugging him. ''Spring Bonnie, I missed you!''
''Fredbear! I missed you too. Welcome back. '' Spring Bonnie said, returning the hug. ''Where have you been?'' he then asked.
I sighed. Even after what the other spirits had done for me, the spirit of the child who has possessed me all this time was not satisfied. He made me create a personal hell for William Afton where me, my friends and so many other animatronics could kill him over and over again, becoming known as 'The One Who Shouldn't Have Killed'. I was blinded by hatred and could not rest in peace. One day, the fishing crocodile Old Man Consequences prompted me to let him die forever. I killed Afton for the last time and then jumped into the pond where Old Man Consequences was fishing.'' I explained.
Spring Bonnie didn't know what to say. He was silent for a few seconds, then opened his mouth. '' You must have been through a lot.'' he said. His tone suddenly became cold and full of anger, though not at me, but at Afton. ''Afton, damn hom. My creator is a monster. He used my costume for his infanticidal purposes. He killed the missing children twice. Even after his death, he continued to use my costume to kill. His digital soul still wore the same costume he used for his crimes. I'm not the type to say this, but I'm glad he's finally dead, I'm sick of being involved with this filthy animal.'' he muttered in disgust.
I nodded, but thought of something else. ''The child... the bite... I don't know if he'll forgive me. '' I whispered.
''I'll take you to him. He got to know the spirits of the other killed children. '' Spring Bonnie said.
I followed his old mate and caught up with whoever I was looking for "Fredbear ...?" Murmured a voice. It was Evan Afton, the child I had accidentally bitten.
''Yes. It's me.'' I said. ''How do you recognize me?'' I then asked, noting that he no longer looked as frightened as he was when he was alive and was not crying fountains of tears.
''My plushies of Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy. In my life I have never had real human friends, I was afraid of my father's animatronics and I saw these plushies as my only friends. Your plushie was my best friend to me.'' Evan replied. In his hands, there were five plushies , including the one that depicted me.
I looked at the baby and my metallic heart broke. Around his forehead was a series of thick bandages with dried blood stains. When the events of 1983 came to mind, I pulled my hat off my head and started sobbing. ''Fredbear? Why are you crying?'' Evan asked.
"Fredbear feels guilty about what happened on your birthday. The bite that caused your death. You got stuck in his jaw and when he noticed, he tried to get you out, unsuccessfully, and not. he managed to keep his mouth open for more than twenty seconds.'' explained Spring Bonnie. It was clear that I was one of the many animatronics with a tragic history, as well as Baby, Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy, and this incident had haunted me for a very long time.
''If I had noticed all this earlier I could have avoided that accident ... you had to celebrate your birthday and I killed you... if you hate me and I ruined myself in your eyes, I don't blame you. I'm so sorry...'' I sobbed. I fell to my knees, head bowed and several tears welling from my eyes, but they weren't even black and oily, but they were like human tears, as if what was crying was the spirit of the child who had possessed me.
The spirits of the other children heard my cries, and stopped playing to check, all perplexed.
''Is it serious?'' Charlie asked. Her father Henry had described her as a caring little girl, and she hadn't lost these traits after taking possession of the Puppet.
''Unfortunately, that's the way it is. One thing you need to know is that that accident traumatized Fredbear forever. When he laughs, he looks more like he's crying, and he's always torturing himself out of guilt over his role in the accident. The victim of the bite died after a week in a coma, and his brother, who had indirectly caused the accident, was so upset that he had hallucinogenic nightmares in which animatronics appeared as monsters with sharp teeth and claws, most notably Fredbear, who was more bulky and muscular, with bloody fangs and a second mouth on the belly. And the worst was not even him, but a huge and monstrous semi-transparent black bear with a hat and a yellow bow tie, named Nightmare.'' Spring Bonnie explained in a low voice, almost in a whisper.
Spring Bonnie looked at me once more, wondering if I had heard him, and the reaction took place. Ashamed of what I had caused, I covered my face with my hands to the point that it was impossible to look at myself, and kept sobbing in a broken voice. '' I'm an abomination... I'm a monster... it's my fault... it was all my fault...'' I whimpered.
Evan walked over to me. ''No, it's not your fault. Maybe if I didn't cry, it wouldn't have happened. My tears had made the springlocks of your suit loosen. Besides, it was my brother's joke. He always played tricks on me by scaring me with a Foxy mask, but this one went wrong. He thought I wanted to give you a big kiss, and he and three of his friends had lifted me to your mouth. This doesn't matter, though. My sister Elizabeth says he spent years redeeming himself.''
''But... how can you forgive me? Look at me! I'm the same robot that caused your death! I am a monster who for years, due to the spirit of one of your father's victims, has killed several people, and it is I who trapped him in my own personal hell to kill him repeatedly! Because of The One He Shouldn't Have Killed, I was blinded by hatred and only recently let it go.'' I replied.
''Listen to me, Fredbear. You are not a monster. I am associated with my creator because he used my costume, but despite my hatred of him for the things he did even after his death, I have never, EVER, called myself a monster. You have to stop torturing yourself like this. Spring Bonnie said sternly, grabbing me by both shoulders and forcing me to look him in the face.
''But he used you for his own purposes! How not to call yourself a monster?'' I asked. Really, how had he done it?
Spring Bonnie sighed, a little irritated. As my partner, he knew me well, and he knew I could be stubborn when I had something in mind. ''Fredbear, stop. That's the point. He didn't use my body, he used my costume. If you have now managed to forgive Afton for what he did, you must forgive yourself too.''
''Ever since I died, I've stopped being afraid of animatronics. I also met the spirits of the children who owned them, and now I can say I have true friends.'' Evan said. Then he wrapped his arms around my robotic neck, catching me off guard.
''How can you forgive me so easily?'' I asked. ''I thought you'd be mad at me at everyone.''
''I've never been mad at anyone. I was sad, I couldn't understand why all this happened. I know you didn't want that to happen, and my brother redeemed himself. '' Evan replied. I tried to say something in response, but was silenced when Evan gave me a kiss on the muzzle, which surprised me and prompted me to hug back. I realized that the child had forgiven me, and even though I had stopped mulling over the accident of over forty years, I still had a few tears in my eyes this time, tears of happiness.
''Thank you... thank you...'' I muttered, hugging Evan and Spring Bonnie. ''You know, I don't want to have anything to do with this anymore.''
''Fredbear, what do you mean? The others have been rebuilt, and so they have a new life, a second chance. Why don't you come back to them?'' Spring Bonnie asked.
''Because I don't think I deserve a second chance. Not after what happened, and I doubt you can have one. Anyway, from up there you can see everything. '' I replied. Evan was silent.
''Look.'' Spring Bonnie said. So I looked down and saw a building with something special. It was under construction. ''Fazbear Entertainment has gone bankrupt now, and a new company took its place and decided to give it a try again. They found several animatronic parts, including ours. They want to give us a second chance.''
''Okay.'' I said.
Suddenly, Evan's plushies, aside from the one depicting me, emitted a soft glow and Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy appeared. They were not the reconstructed ones, but those of the past. The other children recognized the four animatronics they had bonded with by possessing them. '' It's been a while.'' Chica said.
''Is that really you?'' Jeremy asked. ''Bonnie, we haven't seen you in a long time.''
''Yes, Jeremy. Now that your spirits are free, nothing paranormal will happen again.'' Bonnie replied.
''Our recent replacements will entertain the children along with other animatronics from the past, also reconstructed. They will try to make sure what happened decades ago never happens again.'' Foxy said.
''Replacements?'' Elizabeth asked, confused.
''It's a long story.'' Bonnie replied.
''Come on, let's go play. All of us.'' Freddy said.
Gabriel glanced at Jeremy, who nodded and followed. All the children started playing together and flying in the air with the balloons. I stayed behind, but Evan and Spring Bonnie convinced me to follow them. The new animatronics and where they were used were now in good hands, while the old ones had finally found peace alongside the spirits of the children who had owned them for years.
''The worst is finally over. Now these children can spend their afterlife in peace and we are free from the tragedies of the past. All together now we can be together without Afton in between.'' Spring Bonnie said, as she watched me play with the children.
''Yes. Peace at last.'' I said, breathing in relief and smiling. ''I have to do something.'' I temporarily left Heaven to write a letter to my friends for when they first activated.
As Animdude looked into the distance at both the scene in heaven and the new life of animatronics in the mundane world, the new pizzeria was in good hands, and it was a second chance for the rebuilt animatronics from the past, allowing them once again to entertain the children and the people who kept visiting the place, to remember Michael and the past tragedies to learn from the mistakes of the past. The era of tragedy was over and a new era of entertainment for all had begun. Spring Bonnie and I will be together again, but I don't know if we will lose our past memories. Perhaps, with new technologies, they could keep them intact.
(''SkyTown- Metroid Prime 3 Corruption OST-s'')
A/N: And this part is over too! Since his debut, Golden Freddy has always been one of the most mysterious characters, and there are some things that are still unclear, like who possessed him. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter on his arc, the next and final chapter will be where everything all comes full circle! See you soon!
(1): Due to his mechanics, Toy Freddy is considered, along with Nightmarionne (who attacks if you point the mouse at him for too long) and Funtime Foxy (who must be checked exactly when the time is about to change) the most difficult enemy to face in Ultimate Custom Night , yet he was the easiest opponent to defeat in Five Nights at Freddy's 2 despite becoming active from Night 1. Five Nights at Mr. Hugs then became a real fangame in September 2018, in which Toy Freddy appears as the protagonist and is hired as a janitor in Freddy Fazbear's Bakery to periodically dust off the office at night due to the breakdown of the system. air or he will be fired if the office is too dusty, and he will also have to defend himself against three animatronic vacuum cleaners, including Mr. Hugs, who will try to kill him. He will have to close the doors to stop Mr. Hugs, use the vacuum cleaner to drive out Dust Bonnie before he makes the place dirtier, and sleep to force Larry out, as he hates snoring.
(2): This part is inspired by the well-known Ventilation Altercation video, which ends in a kind of self-censorship when Springtrap is insulting Chica. Also, it is really funny and ironic that Springtrap, possessed by the ruthless infanticide William Afton, is unable to kill William himself, because a fat chicken is stuck in the pipe.
(3): Using the Death Coin on Golden Freddy in Ultimate Custom Night when he is the only opponent and on difficulty 1 results in a jumpscare from Fredbear.
(4): Achieving the maximum score in Ultimate Custom Night unlocks a scene where Golden Freddy twitches violently in the dark, but if you start a night with only Old Man Consequences on difficulty 1 and complete his minigame, you will end up in the place where it is found in FNaF World, which is the inside of the game code, and Golden Freddy himself will be controlled. The sounds you hear are very distorted, but by decoding them and listening carefully, you can hear a man scream. According to many, it is the voice of William Afton as he burns in Hell and curses the names of Michael and Henry, who are the ones who killed him in the form of Scraptrap by burning the pizzeria in the sixth game. The Old Man Consequences dialogue means it's all over and Golden Freddy must stop keeping everyone torturing him personally, let him go to Hell and let his soul rest in peace by letting himself ''drown'' in the pond. After that, the game will crash, as these events were caused by Golden Freddy, and now that he has purified his soul, this world will no longer exist.
(5): Scott Cawthon is a Christian. Sinners end up in Hell, pure souls in Heaven and pardoned souls that must be purified to ascend to Heaven end up in the middle, Purgatory. According to Dante's Divine Comedy, Purgatory begins at a beach, and after passing the Antipurgatory, divided into four areas, you climb the Mountain of Purgatory, composed of seven terraces representing the seven deadly sins in reverse order. Souls in Purgatory can reach Heaven if they atone for their sins by following examples of virtues opposite to those they have committed. In the third terrace, for example, the souls who have to atone are the wrathful, who have to climb the mountain wrapped in smoke as in life they were blinded with anger, and they must follow examples of meekness.
(6): Animdude's appearance is very similar to Scott Cawthon's avatar, and the name is from his old username, which also appears on Youtube.
