(( Glamrock Freddy's POV ))
[STARTING UP...] [SAFE MODE]

My eyes flash open. Why am I in my green room looking at my reflection in the mirror?

"Showtime already?! I am experiencing a malfunction. The recharge cycle is not complete."

"Freddy, quiet down!"

That voice... Why does it sound vaguely familiar? "Who said that?"

"Me!"

"Where? I still do not see you."

"Listen. Your show went haywire after you shut off for a bit. For safety reasons, Cole opened your stomach hatch and I climbed inside while they moved you out and went to investigate what happened."

Wait... Why there of all places? "My stomach hatch? That's reserved for oversize birthday cakes and piñatas, not to play around inside!"

I open my hatch and felt a shift before a small child comes out.

(( Author's POV ))

"Wait, Cascade? What are you doing here? It's 11:03 at night. I shall notify the main office." A few weird computer sounds are heard for a couple seconds before ceasing. "Huh, connection error. I cannot connect to the main network."

The eight-year-old takes hold of his large hand gently. "I dunno who cut you off, but they're not letting you call for help."

"Who's 'they'?"

"Shhh! I hear something." Cascade then rushes over to see into the hall and sees a security guard. She didn't seem familiar at all. Plus, where was Cole and Vanessa at? "I dunno who that is, but I think she or whoever's with her started all this. Is there anyway we can speak without you giving us away?"

"I do. Here, take this. It's a novelty Freddy Fazwatch."

The bear gives Cascade the watch and helps put it on her. It reminded her of an Apple Watch, but the screen was slightly larger and encased by a small Freddy Fazbear head attachment. Beeping followed and Cascade turns the screens on.

'Heya, Cassy! It's me, Freddy. I'll escort you to the main entrance, but I'm unable to leave this room. You, however, should have no problem with that. There's a button on the wall that'll open the door to the back room. I shall make it accessible to you now.'

Cascade sees the button behind the arcade machine and pushes it before the door opens and Freddy looks at her. "Well done, Cass. There's an open air vent inside the maintenance room. You'll have to climb through the ventilation system and release me from the outside."

Cascade gulps and starts shaking. The cool air wasn't helping and the trash with the darkness in the back made her tremble. "B-But, Freddy... I-I'm scared..."

Tears fill her eyes and the bear gently walks over to her, having her look up at him as he slightly leans down. "I know that it frightens you. But I cannot fit through the vents and my door is locked. Your watch is equipped with GPS, showing our locations on the map. I will not be far. You got this, superstar." He kisses her forehead and wipes her tears away.

Cascade then gathers up the courage to start climbing through the vents after using packed cardboard boxes to get in, trying to keep as quiet as possible. The fans inside it was similar to a box fan, but the scraping color as well as collection of cobwebs and dust told the kid that these haven't been maintained properly for possibly months.

She slows down as she hears Roxy talking to herself while making poses and playing with her hair while looking at her reflection in the mirror. "Your performance was perfect tonight. Thank you. Your hair is beautiful. Your tail is beautiful. Everyone was watching you. Everyone loves you. Everyone wants to be you. You are the best. Thank you. I am the best. I am the best."

'Geez... Ain't she self-centered. Also, you're not the best. Freddy is!' Cass then continues on for a little until she passes by Montgomery Gator's green room. But it was mostly blacked out and there was a lot of growling and smashing sounds. Deciding the sounds were too much to handle, Cascade pushes on. She soon comes into a vent to view Chica in her green room. She was rocking out on her guitar, but she still found her brother much more skilled.

Cascade soon finds herself back in Rockstar Row and the Dread Unit goes off. 'Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for visiting and we hope you enjoyed the show! Freddy and the gang are pretty tired, but they'll be back again next week after a few days of scheduled maintenance! Please make your way to the front of the building where you will be given novelty glasses, a voucher for one free soda refill, and where you will sign a legal disclaimer releasing us of all liability for anything that might have happened during your visit. Have an awesome night, and we'll see you again soon.'

She sees all the colorful lights on, but they weren't overly bright for the most part. The eerie silence at times threw her off. She sees Chica's green room and examines it. Her room overall is pink with signages, posters, and collectibles that feature her. There is also an arcade machine and tons of empty pizza boxes on the floor, thanks to the bird's messy attitude.

Monty's green room was covered up, but there was also the same smashing noises as well as glass shattering. The sigh said: 'Sorry, no autographs. Monty needs to rest for the next show! Come back soon!' Roxanne's room was better in the visual stand point. It is purple with many collectibles and posters featuring the wolf. It also has a makeup center, many race-themed objects, and an arcade machine as well.

Cascade sees Freddy and points to the direction of the door. She finds her pass and it opens up. He seemed thrilled. "Way to go, superstar! I knew you could do it. I know how to get you out of here. Climb back into my chest. There's still time, but we must hurry. If I am spotted, I'll be taken back to my room. I'll escort you to the main exit through the utility tunnels. It's the safest path."

Cascade looks at him. "Are you sure?"

Freddy nodded and she sighed. "Okay. Just please be gentle."

He opens up to let her inside. Funny enough, it wasn't too tight and the girl could breathe and she was able to see via an invisible screen in his chest. Freddy goes through the door and starts walking downstairs in the utility tunnels. As he does so, Cascade looks at a weird log in her messages about the Pizzaplex on her watch.

The first was called "Party Foul": 'CUSTOMER COMPLAINT - We paid for the Glam Freddy Mega Deluxe Party Package! Freddy broke down as soon as he got on stage! We paid to have him at the table to sing happy birthday and give her the cake! My daughter's birthday has been ruined! I demand a goddamn refund!'

Cascade uses the watch to talk to Freddy. "You broke down during a birthday party. Has this...happened before?"

Freddy slowly comes to a stop and answers. 'Sadly, yes. I do not know whether my circuits shorted out or if there was an error during my initial programming process. Why I did not break down at all today for your birthday though...I do not know. But come. We must keep pressing forward.'

They head down the stairs for awhile before hearing a female voice. It was rough in tone and it made Cascade very uneasy. "Hey, little girl! Say something now!"

Cascade then whispers. "She's down here! Can we please go back?"

Freddy whispers to her via the watch. 'Don't worry, Cascade. Even if we're spotted, you're safe with me. She'll never suspect that we are traveling together. However, we should still do our best to avoid her. If I'm sent back to my room, we'll never get to the main lobby before midnight.'

They walk for a few more minutes before a small weird beep goes off. 'I feel you are broken.'

Cascade shakes her head. "I'm fine, Freddy. Seriously. I mean it."

'No, I feel that something is wrong. I am taking you to the first aid station.' He starts running and once seeing a first-aid booth, Freddy opens his hatch and has Cascade get out so that she could get into it. Good thing too; an officer approaches the animatronic.

She was slim with her messy blonde, black-tipped hair cut short. She was wearing a standard black security guard uniform with a black cap labeled "SECURITY".

Cascade, while staying still in the booth, turns her phone on. She turns her brightness all the way down and opens the app 'Easy Voice Recorder Pro'. She turns up the volume to record after putting the phone into airplane mode to hide her evidence. "Freddy! You're supposed to be on lockdown."

Freddy stutters as he answers her. "Oh, Officer Anna Campbell! I do not know how I got here. Also, I thought Vanessa was on patrol tonight."

"Well, you totally blew it tonight! Your system crashed and you ruined the show. Now, Parts and Service have you on reduced power. They said it's a safety precaution. Just one more thing to deal with…" Anna sighs in frustration and facepalms herself.

Freddy whispers a little. "I apologize."

She wipes her face and looks at him again. "Look, we're 15 minutes from closing and some stupid little girl is sneaking around back here. If you see anything, notify me immediately. I've already alerted the others. Now, go back to your room!"

When she turns around to back head to where she came from, her facial features were noticeable. Her golden-hazel eyes and pink lipstick stood out as well as...popping out of her shirt a little since she had big knockers. The sound of footsteps fade as she then closes the door behind her and Cascade comes out, saving the recording. "Well, that was fun..."

"I said nothing." Cascade smiles and holds Freddy's hand gently. "I know."

Freddy then opens his chest. "I will keep you safe. Let's go."

Cascade jumps back in and they take off again. The girl doesn't recognize anything except...construction equipment. "Where...are we?"

'We are now under the Pizzaplex. These utility tunnels connect all the attractions.'

"Meaning...we can go anywhere in the building?"

'Correct. Fazer Blast, Monty Golf, Roxy Raceway: they are all accessible to S.T.A.F.F. - with high enough clearance of course. Guests are never allowed down here, but yours is a... special situation.'

They head upstairs when suddenly, Cascade's let out of the cavity. She looks up at him with worry. "I am terribly sorry. The recharge cycle had not yet completed when I found you. You must continue without me. I will guide you on your Fazwatch in case you get into any trouble."

"I dunno if I can do this alone."

Freddy leans down and cups her face affectionately. "I'm sorry, Cass. But I will need to charge to full power before I can rejoin you. My voice is on the Fazwatch and once I charge fully, I will immediately tell you and come to your location. Go on, superstar."

He kisses her forehead and rushes into the charge station to restore his battery. Cascade then takes off back down to the tunnels. Soon, the sound of squeaking gets to her and her musophobia kicks in as the sight and sounds of rushing rodents made her uneasy. She pushes through and continues onwards, trying to ignore her fear with the squeaking and scurrying down on the floor.

Using her phone's flashlight, Cascade uses it to find a small present box and inside of it, there was a Foxy the Pirate plushie. The eight-year-old knew that taking things that didn't belong to her was wrong, but with it being abandoned, she takes it with her. She also finds a backpack, putting the plushie into it before she continues onward.

She somehow ends back up to where Freddy was. He was still charging and she sniffles. She finds a pink dufflebag and another log appears on her Fazwatch called "Food Storage". It read: 'ATTENTION KITCHEN STAFF - All foods must be securely stored at closing. Chica's been caught eating from the fucking garbage after hours. The maintenance repairs are costly and will have to come out of the kitchen staffs' paychecks. - MANAGEMENT'.

Cascade was angry at this. Managers usually took money out of one's paycheck to pay for work shoes and uniforms, but to fix costly replacements such as this? Outrageous and illegal...wasn't it?

Cascade continues to go, but she covers her mouth when she sees Chica outside of her room and digging through the trash. 'How am I gonna get past her?'

She turns to see paint buckets and crashes them, making the robot chicken to go towards the sound and gives the eight-year-old a chance to sneak out of sight. She opens a door and locks it. It had old fans, a rotten couch, and tall shelves. She kept going for a bit and eventually she enters a hallway with red lights.

"There you are!" Monty doesn't seem to recognize her as he then begins to chase her. Cascade starts running, but she screams as she Roxy and Chica start chasing her as well.

"Cassy!" She looks up to see Cole and Vanessa both at the top of the stairs. "Come on!"

She was wheezing as she runs up the stairs and finally, she somersaults into the office with the security doors shutting tightly behind her. She hugs her older brother, clinging to him with all of her might. Cole felt his shirt getting wet from her tears, but he rocks her back and forth gently. "Watashi wa ima koko ni imasu (I'm here now)."

Vanessa turns her flashlight off as she then hears the Fazwatch go off. 'Well done, Cascade. You found a security office. You should be quite safe here. The doors were designed to keep our highly-trained security staff safe in the event of an emergency. As long as the doors stay closed, which they will, as long as there is ample power…'

"Freddy! The doors are only at 15% and the other animatronics are aggressively banging on the doors! This is Vanessa speaking here! Cole and I have been hiding here for hours after you collapsed!"

'Officer Vanessa? Alright, don't panic. Activate the interface on the security desk. It will also connect Cassy's Fazwatch to every security camera in the building.'

Cole wipes his sister's eyes while she checks her Fazwatch to see camera footage; Monty was pounding on the door with Chica stumbling around and Roxy nowhere to be found. 'Those boxes on your mini-map are nearby security cameras. When movement is detected by the camera's motion sensors, you should see red alert icons. Switch between the cameras to find a safe path out of the office and to the main lobby.'

"I'll go do that." Vanessa goes out to find a safe path all while avoiding Chica. Once she manages to lock the robot into another room, the trio run through the exit and panic as the Dread Unit goes off. 'Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex is now closed. Initiating nighttime protocols.'

The doors close fully and Cascade was now fully scared, making Cole frustrated. "Shit!"

Vanessa sighs in frustration. "Great. Now, we're stuck here for the night."

Freddy could be heard on the Fazwatch. 'How unfortunate. You missed your chance, but there's still hope. You should be able to escape when the security doors reopen at 6 AM. Until then, keep moving and try not to draw attention to yourself. If there's another way out, I'll help you all find it. I promise.'

++Author's Note++

I promised some action and you guys got it, but much more will happen in the next chapter.

1. I felt that Vanessa didn't get enough evolvement into the game, so I added another night guard to the story - whose gonna be a second villain. There's also been word that Security Breach is getting DLC content, but not sure when.

2. While Gregory and Freddy did have a decent bond, I wanna make it even better between Cascade and Freddy as well as her older stepbrother, Cole.

Anyway, I'm gonna get off here. I hope you guys enjoy this story thus far. I'll see you all when I fully settle into my new home with a new chapter ^^
