I am detecting new followers such as Shadowmccloud and Beardonator. Welcome to the entire circus, where I'm not just a clown.

Hey remember DeltaV's "Of Mechanics And Monsters" story? Well this chapter includes a bit of that. Not to mention a setup for the "New Guy" big bad. Oh, and disclaimer: when swapping perspectives, I write from there perspective. Just because they dislike a character and see them negatively, doesn't mean I do.

[ALEX FELSEN, 1:00 AM]

A madman, a lunatic, generally insane, these are the words used to describe the cyborg madman known as Alex Felsen. He had worked as a mechanic for Freddy Fazbear's Pizza once, only to get stuck there overnight and witness someone almost get suited. He has hated the Fazbear Four ever since, and wasn't happy to hear about the new Tennessee location.

He had moved to Tennessee to get away from the Freddy Fazbear's Pizza chain, and now he was in the same f#cking city as it. He was tired of running and hiding from his past, now he just wanted revenge. Lucky for him, he had some 'friends' who hated Freddy just as much as he did.

Hunter, a fugitive of the law who escaped prison. Alex didn't know what Hunter did or what his real name was, but he didn't care. An enemy of Freddy's is a friend of his, he probably got arrested for trying to stop Freddy's murderous rampage or something.

Jeremy Fitzgerald, after a he received a free "Frontal Lobe Removal" from Mangle in 1985, he's been a little unhinged. It's honestly a miracle he functions as well as he does, missing a huge chunk of his brain. Side effects include; major anger issues, no self-preservation instinct, and the inability to speak. Alex wouldn't even know about his desire for revenge if he didn't go bezerk at the sight of Mangle, the guy burned a house down over a mere plushy.

Michael Afton. At first, Alex found it strange how he wanted to tear down his father's empire. But when told about how he lost his brother to Fredbear, he understood it perfectly. Michael didn't go into detail on what happened, but he didn't have too. Alex heard about 1983, although he didn't know the identity of the brats who shoved the poor kid's head into Fredbear's mouth.

"So, what's the plan" Alex asked, awaiting Hunter's orders.

"Why do we need a plan? Can't we just go in, break the animatronics, and then burn the whole place down?" Michael butted in.

"No, they'll be expecting that. Not to mention that I've been weakened by my last attempt on the place, whereas they've likely been strengthened." Hunter sternly explained. He never explained exactly how his heart was ruined to the point of needing a pacemaker, but Alex guessed it was Freddy's doing. "We need someone to work undercover, to map out the area and get a reading on just what the animatronics can do now. Only then can we plan our attack."

"I call dibs on Freddy." Michael spoke.

Jeremy snapped his fingers, drawing everyone's attention. He looked at Alex expectedly, "Sorry, Mangle's not going to be there." Jeremy looked disappointed at that, "Although... Foxy will be there, and I know how much you like breaking anything with even the slightest resemblance to the fox that did this to you." Jeremy grinned at that.

Hunter looked at Jeremy, and then turned to Michael. "Micheal." Alex and Michael both knew what that meant,

"On it, boss." Michael sighed before getting up and preparing his lighter, "Hey Jeremy!" he called, getting the silent man's attention. "Go get it!" He ordered, tossing it out of the window. Jeremy chases after it like a dog chasing a stick, it turns out he's apparently a pyromaniac.

Alex looked between Michael and Hunter, "Really?" was all he could say.

"He was getting on my nerves," Hunter replied, "Now, as for the person to work undercover... I've chosen to elect you for this purpose." Alex could feel his stomach doing backflips.

"WHAT!?" He screamed out loud! "Hold on! We might all want revenge on them, but I'm the only one of us who's actually terrified of them! Why am I going out there?"

"True, but you're the least recognisable. Jeremy was the 1985 victim, Michael is William Afton's son, and I already tried to take them down once before." Hunter explained. Alex didn't want to admit it, but Hunter had a point.

"Not to mention the only spot open right now is that of a mechanic." Michael added, "Which I know because of my ties to the company.

"And besides, they only move around at night remember? So, are you going to help stop the evil Freddy Fazbear? Or are you going to wimp out like a coward?" Hunter mockingly finished.

"...you guys owe me big for this." Alex sighed. As much as he feared those... things, he couldn't just let them continue their nightguard stuffing rampage. It's not like they just stopped after all those years, people could die if he didn't act. At least that's what he thought, what he assumed.

"You're a d#ck, you know." Michael directed towards Hunter, "Even if you have a point."

[FOXY, 2:00 AM]

"Mike Schlatt, the lad worked as a nightguard the last time I was active... where is he?" Foxy sternly asked a lad in yellow, grabbing him by the shirt. Sprig stood by surprised, but didn't exactly object to this.

"I don't even know who that is! Seeing as that was likely decades ago, he could be anywhere!" the lad responded with a hint of worry in his voice.

Foxy was caught off guard by that, "Wha'...Decades?" The lad went silent at that, "What do ye mean decades?" Between the new look and upgrades(such as a sense of smell), he knew he'd been deactivated for a while. But... DECADES?

The lad looked wide eyed at Foxy, he opened his mouth to speak. But what came out wasn't an answer, "Uh... There are two..." he started before looking at Sprig, "three bunny animatronics in this pizzeria, I refuse to speak without the purple one's presence." That just raises more questions; How does he know Bonnie? Who's this other bunny animatronic? Were they another 'Bonnie'?

Sprig's ear perked up at this, "Oh yes, Miss Bonnie. How is she doing?" Apparently he knows Bonnie as well.

"Eh, about as well as you'd expect. Deactivated for decades only to wake up in a new pizzeria with strangers that look like her old friends."

"The whole 'metallic freak' comment you made probably didn't help either." Sprig frowned.

Foxy's eyepatch flipped open, his eyebrows were furrowed, "...What?" he growled. His vision gained green tint and got brighter. The lad went wide-eyed and the color drained from his face, not to mention the new stain on his pants.

"And with that terrifying expression, I have only one more thing to say;" the lad inhaled as he prepared for something big, a scream loud enough to be heard throughout the pizzeria. Foxy winced in pain at just how loud it was, he started to feel a little bad for him. Knowing about the whole endo-glitch, the lad could've been scared and confused when he called Bonnie that. And judging from how he didn't want to answer any more questions until she was here, they were likely on better terms.

Foxy didn't want to go ahead and make assumptions again. The last time he did, he made innocent nightguards 'walk the plank'. Foxy opened his mouth to ask some questions, but before he could...

*WHACK*

[BONNIE, 3:00 AM]

"Poor Foxy" Bonnie whispered as Foxy laid unconscious on the office floor, Ethen had just explained what happened between him and the red fox. Chica and Bonnie had first assumed Foxy mistook Ethen for an endoskeleton like Robbie did, hence the scream. But really this was just the same scenario as when Chica first activated, and for the same reason.

"Huh, I kinda feel bad for using the pan now." Chica confessed, still holding the very thing she used as a weapon. "But hey, at least this idiot didn't get his face bitten off." she said referring to the nightguard that started this mess.

"I can hear you y'know," Ethen replied, "but... I have to thank you for saving my backside."

"Is he okay?" Bonnie fretted, "You hit him pretty hard Chica."

"Only because I thought he was being like Robbie... speaking of which, where is he?"

*WHRRRRRRrrrrr*

The place went dark, Bonnie's vision gained a greenish tint. She looked around and saw that Chica's eyes were dark with white pupils, instead of the usual dark pupils and white eyes. At least she assumed the pupils were white, they looked the same as the walls and they were white.

"...I thought you said this place had unlimited power?" Chica questioned the nightguard.

"Yeah but it could be shut off at the generator, so I guess we know where Robbie is now." Ethen answered, his eyes were wide open and Bonnie could hear his heart beating faster for a moment before slowing down. "Oh, and on another note, why are your eyes like that?"

"Like what?"

"Well, it's hard to tell because I can't see in the dark. But when I look in your direction I see white pupils glowing in the dark... Those are your eyes right?" Ethen responded, noticeably worried but still surprisingly calm all things considered.

Chica shrugged, "Maybe? Bonnie's eyes are black with white pupils right now, so it'd make sense if mine could go like that too."

"Ah... wait you guys can see in the dark?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Uh, no reason, or at least not a good one." Ethen confessed.

"Ugh... wha's goin' on?" Foxy moaned, waking up from his pan induced sleep.

"Oh no." Ethen's expression basically deflated at that.

Chica was the first to speak up. "Hey, we were just talking about you."

[END CHAPTER]

I probably should've put more thought and planning into this story. Eh, I can always rewrite and release it.

FYI, Mangle's my favorite in the franchise.
