Welcome to Parahuman Pizzeria
Worm/Five Nights at Freddy's crossover
3 AM, Freddy Fazbear pizza place, second basement level.
As Aisha struggled against the restrains, she watched as the two technicians on the other side of the glass ignored her pleas to be let out while they worked on replacing the parts she had damaged on their endoskeleton robot. Her eyes glanced over to her right at the sick cape in charge of all this.
She wore a white bunny costume, made of stitched together pieces (with discolored pink tartan at the left hip) with oversized head and a blue bowl around the neck. The red oversized eyes of the bunny stared at nothing, as the mouth of the costume was made into an open smile, while the pink paw pads gloves she wore matched the shoes made to look like rabbit feet.
This was Tanny, the founder and CEO of Fazbear Entertainment… and the cape planning to gut her.
Currently, she was standing over a table, working on the rat themed female animatronic, while the machines she left on kept scanning Aisha's brain; she especially hate this helmet strapped around her maskless head.
"You're going to pay for this! The Undersiders will find me and when they do, they'll rip you apart" Aisha yelled, only to be ignored by Tanny as she kept working on the unfinished animatronic, chuckling a little as she began installing the left arm.
Why, why had she though infiltrating this place was a good idea?
Five hours earlier, 10 PM, Freddy Fazbear pizza place, Men's bathroom
As the night guard checked the stalls one by one, he failed to notice the young teen dressed in black, wearing a white demon mask, with a black scarf around her neck observing the guard, who after checking the final stall left, leaving her alone.
Aisha glanced at her wrist watch, noting that it was closing time; a perfect time to sneak around and get into the basement below; Tattletale had said not to come here, but she wanted to prove that she was just as capable as her brother and the rest of Undersiders.
However, as the mechanical footsteps passed by few times, she decided to wait another thirty minutes for things to quiet, before she slowly crept towards the door, peeking through to check the hallway; there were couple of workers still cleaning, but no animatronics on sight.
Stepping out, she took a few steps down the hall, before her eyes widened as she ducked into women's bathroom, just in time as the mechanical steps turned a corner.
"Let's party" a mechanical female voice echoed, followed by a sigh from one of the cleaners "Chica, go to stage" one of them said, before the mechanical steps started again as the animatronic walked through the hall, steps eventually fading away.
"God, I hate those things; how can children get excited every time they see them?" one of the cleaners said, only to be hushed by the other "Don't say that aloud; you don't want to end up like that child predator at the other location, right?" he said, before silence followed as the two continued cleaning the black and white square floor.
Aisha couldn't help but agree about the 'Toy Chica' that had passed by; the thing was creepy, especially when it took its beak off. Regent had bought the toys new animatronics were based on, just for laughs after he learned what had happened on that other location.
Apparently, a child predator had tried to kidnap a kid right out of the pizza place; a stupid mistake, as one of the animatronics with a hook for an arm had bounced him and beaten the guy's face in, before its hook had snapped when it went through the guy's skull.
None of the customers had filed complains, not that they could; the company had created a clever liability waver, which meant anyone who stepped inside couldn't sue the company for injury or death that might happen because of the animatronics or parahuman attacks.
Aisha was surprised to hear the guy had survived, though not without losing a portion of his frontal lobe. The PRT tried to rein them in, but because only the programming of the animatronics counted as tinker tech, they couldn't do anything other than force some new safety features.
Now, no predator would be able to approach Fazbear Entertainment's establishments, as they were connected to nationwide criminal databases: it also meant PRT could send custom search requests, to see if they picked anyone up.
Tattletale also warned them, that if they ever get revealed, the face recognition software would probably notice them instantly if they went to any Fazbear brand store, no matter the state. An extra warning, since Regent liked the pizza's there.
Still, she couldn't help but find the yellow humanoid animatronic with pink cheeked chicken head and holding a faced cupcake creepy; the thing had detachable beak and looked like someone was only wearing pink panties and an apron barely covering its breasts.
Of course, the things were hollow, nothing more than chassis made way too curvy, like a woman's; how could the other children like that creepy thing? Though the teen boys seemed to 'especially like' the toy Chica… ugh.
Stepping outside once more, she could see the floor was still wet on couple of spots; she carefully moved through the hall, approaching the hallway leading towards the security office. She glanced at the door with "parts and service" sign, before stopping at the corner as she peaked through the open doorway on her left.
The weird thing about this place was the lack of doors in main rooms; inside the building, only Parts and Service had a door, probably to keep the children out.
Aisha swore, as she saw a blue rabbit standing there in the hallway, with its back towards her. Apparently, she'd need to wait longer before she could move to the basement at the opposite side of the hallway, behind the security guy's desk.
Why did the toy Bonnie have to stand there creepily?
The mechanical steps behind her got her heart racing; while the employees couldn't see her, the robots could. She didn't want to risk seeing what happened if they caught her now, especially after Tattletale warned them not to go snooping around.
Glancing back towards the sound, Aisha made the choice; she jumped across the hall, opening the door to parts and service, closing it just as the toy Freddy entered the hallway, not noticing anything as it moved to check the bathrooms.
11:30 PM, Freddy Fazbear pizza place, Parts and Service
Aisha stood with her back against the door, flashlight open as she didn't dare to move in the last hour. The constant thumping of mechanical parts, as well as casual chat between workers slowly disappeared, leaving the building quiet.
This however didn't unnerve her; no it was the objects she had kept her flashlight pointed at for the last hour. At first, she had been content in sitting in the dark, but shuffling behind her had caused a panic reaction.
Now, as her eyes kept track of all three broken animatronics in her view, her flashlight once in the while went to the dark corner of the room where the fourth one was.
On the floor, a partially dismantled older Freddy lied, while on the wall to her left, the fat Chica animatronic with broken jaw and no arms sat there, while directly opposite her, a purple faceless Bonnie with left arm missing stood there, making no movement whatsoever.
Lastly, in the corner to her right, the orange-brown Foxy stood there, its head turned towards her, though it had made no movement whatsoever.
All four of the original animatronics (or rather, their copies) stood here, unused and in a state of disrepair; it looked like someone had begun to partially retrofit them, parts of the casings in tatters like someone had tried to rip them out, before stopping half-way.
Already creepy robots, it was only after she had peeked into the hallway and turned back to find that Bonnie had shifted from sitting to standing position, that Aisha had decided to not take her eyes off the things; they were clearly active, if the head tilt of Chica towards her when she checked on Foxy was any indication.
Carefully checking the time on her watch, she noted that it was 12:02 AM now. With a final glance towards all the creepy animatronics, Aisha opened the door behind her, stepping into the hallway and closing it, never taking her eyes off the standing Bonnie.
It was only when the door closed, that she let out a sigh of relieve, turning off her flashlight as she turned around, creeping to the doorway that was now on her right.
There, at the opposite side of the hallway, a security desk sat on clear view; the guy on his thirties was sitting there, looking at the tabled on his hands, before flashing towards the air vents to his left and right, then turning towards the monitor again.
Taking her change, she slowly walked down the hall, before stopping as the guard flashed his flashlight towards her… before she froze as he rapidly switched it on and off. Had he spotted her? No, wait, It wasn't aimed at her, it was aimed at... behind her?
Quickly turning around, she saw the withered foxy there, not even five feet from her with its hooked arm raised. Aisha felt her widen as her heart beat fast; she quickly jumped into the room on her right, entering the part room as she fished out her flashlight, before ducking behind the table as she turned and looked towards the door.
As the flashing of the guards flashlight stopped, Aisha turned hers on as she looked; Foxy wasn't there anymore.
Turning off the flashlight, she noticed that the cameras in the rooms occasionally flashed the rooms; she noticed it when it flashed at her, apparently, the guard didn't see her, which meant that while she still appeared on cameras and recordings, if they were live feed, they couldn't see her.
That didn't protect her from the animatronics or drones however… and unfortunately for Aisha, not from guards manning the cameras deliberately ignoring her.
Slowly walking to the door, she quickly took cover at the frame, as the beakless toy Chica entered the room opposite her. Why wasn't it making any noise like it was earlier? As she carefully glanced towards the room she could see it moving around.
After a moment, Aisha took a risk; she went through the doorway into the hall, quickly moving towards the security desk before ducking into the room on opposite side, as the guard wore a Freddy mask, to hide as toy Bonnie entered the room through the vent.
Aisha was lucky to not know about the animatronics habit of mistaking people as endoskeletons at night and trying to stuff them into suits; otherwise, she'd have fled through the halls with stained pants.
Of course, the night guards were quite aware of this; that's why there was another guard patrolling the building, in a full golden Freddy costume. Originally, those suits doubled as endoskeleton covers, but a risk of springs snapping and killing the person inside had gotten the legal to change them into full costumes instead.
They still showed the training video where a test dummy inside the suit suffered that fate, when the springs snapped, scaring the shit out of the technicians demonstrating how to put it on.
And in Aisha's case, ignorance was bliss, especially when she stopped and noticed the crouched down guard inspecting the vent. She froze, as the 'golden Freddy' lifted the crate on the place, sealing it shut.
"Party room 3 grate is now shut. We seriously need to upgrade these so the animatronics don't crawl through them" the guard spoke into the radio, causing Aisha to sigh in relieve as he stood up and turned towards her, before freezing as he quickly turned on his flashlight and clicked it on and off.
Aisha moved quickly from the door, checking it with shock as she felt dread creep down her spine at the sight of faceless, withered Bonnie standing just a step away from where she had been a moment ago.
"Hey, Mike; the old ones are on the move again. Remember to flash their eyes; you don't want one of those catching you" the guard in suit said, as he failed to notice Aisha slowly backing up, till she stood behind him next to the vent grate.
Aisha wasn't sure which was worse; that the animatronics weren't raising alarms when they saw her or the fact that these guys apparently treated these walking horror shows like it was just a plush toy.
Glancing at the vent, she wondered about it before looking back as the guard walked way, the doorway now free of the animatronic, though no doubt it was still walking around somewhere. As she took a step to the side, she noticed the guard in suit step into the room opposite side of the hall from her.
Once again glancing at the vent, she made the decision; she slowly checked the grate, before clicking each of the locks out while checking the doorway every few seconds. Once she had the locks unlocked, she slowly lifted the grate off, before setting it to lean against the wall.
Taking a quick look at her watch, she realized it was already 12:23. At this rate, it would take forever to get through this night.
With last glance towards the door, she began to crawl through the vent; little oversized as normal vents weren't the size to crawl though, but she managed. Slowly but steadily, she endured as she crawled on her hands and knees, not caring about the noise she was making.
After some time, she arrived at the corner that turned to the office; peeking out, she could see the security officer wearing a Freddy mask, as the brown feet of the withered Freddy stood in front of the desk for a moment, before walking away.
As the guard lifted the mask and glanced at the tabled once more, Aisha started to move carefully. However, her eyes widened with fear as she heard the clanking of the vent behind her; something was coming up behind her!
With all the haste in the world, she quickly crawled out of the vent, glancing as the guard checked the tabled, before cursing as he put the mask back on. Aisha didn't have much time, so when she saw the door behind the guard, she wasted no time.
Quickly crossing the room, she threw the door open, before slamming it shut behind her as she run down the stairs on the other side…
As the door slammed closed behind him, Mike failed to notice anything out of ordinary till the light on his tabled lit up. Checking it, he sighed in relieve as he took off the mask, before opening the radio "James, you there?" he spoke, waiting for a reply.
It only took a moment for James to reply "Yeah, what is it?" he asked, as Mike chuckled "Code Cucumber" he replied, before turning the radio off as he waited.
Soon enough, James came walking down in his Golden Freddy costume, taking the mask off as he wiped the sweat from his brow "Damn, these things get so hot… Oh, hi Bonnie, go ahead" he said as the faceless old style animatronic passed him without a reaction, followed by the other three of the "withered" set as the door opened once more, the four of them entering.
Mike watched as the door closed after Foxy, before sighting as he walked to the door and shifted a panel next to it, revealing a keypad. He gave the door one last look, before typing the four number code; 1983
With a click, the automatic locks in the door engaged, starting the 5 hour time lock.
"I pity the poor fool trapped inside" Mike said as he returned to his seat, once again glancing at the monitors; at the corner, the light shined green, meaning the system hadn't detected any strangers.
He didn't know why, but every Fazbear owned property was filled with light, heat, sound, weight and laser sensors; Company policy against strangers, they said. The system was also recognized to detect sensor loops or lack of any sensors, as well as a sensor wires build into the walls; to detect people phasing in, like Shadow Stalker or Fog.
"Yeah, well… if you don't wanna get potentially killed by homicidal robots, don't go sneaking into a tinker's base of operations full of said robots" James replied, as he glanced at the beakless toy Chica, who walked into the room, doing a survey before walking away.
"Do you think we should tell the new guys those things don't actually kill you?" James asked, as turned his head towards Mike. A silence stood between them for a moment, before they laughed together.
The seniors liked watching the newbies sweat; if you stayed longer than two weeks, you'd learn the tricks by hand. The spies never risked their skins for a change they could get killed by being stuffed into a spare springlock suit.
Oh, they certainly attacked the new night guards, but would 'accidentally' let them escape once said guard saw the springlock suit ready at parts and service or be 'rescued' by a senior co-worker on duty. If you stayed beyond the test period, the company would add you to the face recognition system; no more unwanted captures.
Tanny made sure only she would add people to the list of acceptable guards.
"Alright, let's get back to work; Tanny's going to get us on disposal duty otherwise" Mike said, as he put the Freddy mask on, James following after he took a gulp of water.
"Hey, by the way; why do we have those older models in such disrepair? She literally works downstairs, so why does she keep those old models they moved from the other location looking like they were neglected a decade?" James asked, as he finished setting his golden Freddy mask on.
The two seniors found it weird; they had been brand new when transferred (except Foxy, who needed a new hook), but one weekend later they looked like they suffered decades of neglect in maintenance.
"Honestly? No idea. I know they shipped the Rockstar models there after the Foxy incident, but I guess Tanny just kept them around for sentiment? Or maybe their programming was unique that couldn't be transferred, I don't know" Mike answered, as he switched between cameras again, occasionally holding the button that reloaded the music box on puppet's room.
It was fun working for a secret villain; good pay and easy job while ignoring anything criminal happening…
12:47 PM, Freddy Fazbear pizza place, basement level one
As the two guards enjoyed the company inside joke, Aisha was sweating as she travelled the basement halls, a grid o rooms. So far, she had found them either mostly empty or stacked with merchandize, as well as a row of empty racks.
As she walked through the room with a boiler, she heard a loud crack from the speakers installed there "Uh oh, it appears a guest has wandered into staff only area; please locate and escort them to nearest security officer" a male voice announced, before the speaker cracked again at the end of announcement.
Aisha swore aloud as she turned around, only to freeze as her light landed on a endoskeleton, frozen on place; The thing was nothing more than inner skeleton of machinery, with blue eyes and a disturbing row of teeth.
It was standing there, claws extended as she looked at it. Grinding her teeth, Aisha used her free hand to pull out her gun, switching the safety off as she took careful aim, before backing away.
She didn't get far, as she was tackled from behind by another endoskeleton.
Aisha screamed as she struggled, before firing a couple of shots on the endo's head; that seemed to do the work, as it let go of her, giving her a change to escape it's clutches, as well as dodge the first endo who tried to tackle her too.
And as she ran through the rooms, dodging shelves, crates and random endoskeletons, Aisha frantically searched for a way out with her light, as the increasing mechanical stomping behind her caused her to panic more and more.
She never noticed the tall, purple rabbit, till she slammed into it, causing Bonnie's hand to quickly tight around the screaming girl's shoulder in its iron grip, which she tried to uselessly break.
Although she had the time to raise the gun, she missed the shot to the head entirely as an endoskeleton grasped and twisted her arm, causing her to scream in the dark, a sound of bone snapping echoed.
The flashlight and gun fell to the floor, as Bonnie lifted her up, watching her scream in pain and fear as Aisha's vision filled with two glowing red dots on Bonnie's faceless head…
3: 13 AM, Freddy Fazbear pizza place, second basement level.
"Stop your foolish struggles" Tanny said, as she stood over the tied down Aisha, observing her while the machines around her beeped. They were inside a cylinder glass room, with two tables inside; one where Aisha was tied down, while the other was where the now complete rat animatronic lied without movement.
Atop the two, a row of mechanical arms with different tools stood, inactive while Tanny stood between the two tables, hovering over Aisha as the machine attached to her shaven head beeped.
"You are the one who came here willingly; how did you expect this to happen? That you'll get to steal my secrets? Sabotage my work? I wonder… how much did they pay for your soul?" Tanny spoke in the mechanically distorted voice.
Aisha could feel tears building in her eyes as a sob left her lips; the best she could do was try to convince this psycho to let her go, because if she let her power activate, Tanny might forget her but the machines wouldn't.
"There, There" Tanny spoke, as she wiped the tear that slip down Aisha's cheek "Soon, you'll have nothing to worry about. You'll get to spend your days entertaining children to their hearts content, while at night doing my busy work; doesn't that sound exciting?" she asked.
"The Undersiders will find out what you did! They won't stop until you're taken down, you sick freak!" Aisha screamed, as Tanny only chuckled in return.
"I already know what your power is, little one; you erase the memory of your presence from anyone's mind, yet my animatronics can see you just fine. So when I'm finished with you, your friends will forget you even exist… maybe I'll dumb your headless body in some alleyway in ABB territory, after making it look like you were tortured and killed as their sex slave" Tanny said, as another sob left Aisha's lips.
Oh, why hadn't she heeded Tattletale's warnings? Why had she gone alone, without telling anyone where she was?
What would Alec think, once they realized she was never coming back?
"Why are you doing this? I thought you created robots to entertain children, not kill people for fun" Aisha asked as Tanny laughed at her question "But that's what I am doing. With my animatronics, I can change the world; already they make people happy all across the world, while soon my new Medhall sets will spread across the country, into all of the hospitals, bringing top quality medical care for children and adults alike" she paused, before continuing.
"But in order to do so, I need… a spark of life, something to elevate them from stupid machines to actual sentience. Something….right…here" she said, pausing between each word as she tapped Aisha's forehead.
A cold realization hit Aisha like a truck; this sick freak was making animatronics out of people? Then how many would be sacrificed, once she begun the mass production? Were those endoskeletons also living people, forced to do whatever was ordered of them?
Did they even know they were once human?
"Why are you just standing there? Stop her!" Aisha yelled out, sobbing as the two technicians glanced at her, wearing blank oval masks with eye slots as they stood there for a moment, before going back to their work as they began to install a toy Freddy casing to the newly repaired animatronic endoskeleton.
"Do you know why they obey me? it's not because the people I choose as sparks are all lowest forms of life; mass murderers, drug peddling scum who addict kids, rapists who murder their child victims in ABB brothels" Tanny said, just as the machine attached to Aisha's head detached, revealing the shaven head beneath.
"It's because I'm feared and respected; they fear what will happen, should I decide that they're traitors, while respecting me for removing the worst of this city, piece by piece. So tell me, do you really think they'd give up all of this, the secure and legal way to feed their families, just to help an arrogant cape like you?" She asked, laughing as Aisha couldn't answer.
Of course they wouldn't help her; they were all ex-cons, used to peddling drugs, killing people or risking their lives just to keep their cape bosses safe. Obeying her was among the best options they had in this dying city; the recruitment period serving as buffer between fanatical loyalty and sloppy spies.
"Now, think of pleasant dreams, this will be over soon" Tanny said as she petted Aisha's head like a child, before moving it away as another machine clamped down on Aisha's skull.
"See you soon, Bella the Rat" Tanny said as she left, hopping away as she left the openly crying Aisha behind while the glass door of the cylinder room slammed shut behind her. It didn't matter that Tanny and the technicians soon forgot all about Aisha, as the automated machines took over.
"Safety protocols disengaged; Beginning remnant harvesting and implantation procedure" Mechanical male voice spoke from the speakers, as the robotic arms extended down from the ceiling, turning towards Aisha, as she begged for Brian to save her.
And then she screamed, as the machines above her turned on while the helmet clamped to her skull began drilling….
I hope you enjoyed the last of four shorts I wrote. In this one, Taylor replaces Henry Emily as creator of animatronics and William Afton as co-creator of animatronics and mass murderer by combining them into one role.
So, let me know in reviews what you think; no comment is wrong, so negative or positive, as long as it's constructive I'll accept it.
