Chapter 5- On the Hunt

Many years have gone by and I look a bit more of my age. I am 22 years old now and I am on my own. I moved out from my mother's place and into the city. Though I looked into why the restaurant was closing. Turns out that night guard was a secret investigator that the FBI sent in to look into the mystery of fathers killings. He got enough evidence and Henry also helped out. I was furious to know they were the cause of Afton's fate. So one day I went out and started searching for the people who were involved. It wasn't just Mike and Henry that I had to look for. Many other agents were as well curious to know. One by one they begin to disappear and all of it was leading to the final ones. I found out the Henry was going to meet Mike at an isolated location. I located the address from an agent and off I went before finishing him off. When I arrived and entered the building. I was greeted with a phone on a table. It started to ring. I answered it.

"Hello, this is me Henry."

"Henry!? Where are you?"

"Somewhere far from here. Now I know you have many questions about the incident but I can insure you that I was only little involve."

"A little?"

"I had a plan set but after Afton's mysterious disappearance my plan is now changed. Also a new threat came in."

"What threat?"

"Have you ever looked at one of Afton's blueprints for an animatronic called BABY?"

"Yes but it didn't quite make sense."

"Afton knew about the souls of the children inside the old models. They were trapped inside the suits and when Afton removed them. They were free from their chains and sent out for him. And what became of him I ain't sure but I know you know what happened that day. Tell me is he dead or alive?"

I stayed silent.

"It's fine to be silent but I have a hint of what has happened to him. But I'll deal with him later. I need to focus on Baby."

"What is Baby?"

"She's like the others. A soul trapped in a plastic suit of a machine. Though she follows what her father taught her."

"Who?"

"Afton. Baby's real name is Elizabeth Afton. She's the daughter of William Afton. In a way your step sister."

"But I only knew about Michael."

"Michael? Wait that's how she got out. Well I guess I am gonna need to find Michael first then gather everyone else in one place."

"Enough of this Henry! Tell me where you are and your friend Mike."

"Mike was never my friend. I used him to get what I needed and in return I let him know only a little bit of information. If you want your revenge here."

A light shined down on an unconscious man tied up to a chair.

"As for me I am not finished what I started. If you wish to find me then you'll need to find William."

"He's dead. I saw it with my own eyes."

"I am not stupid Whisper. I went into the backroom of the pizzeria and the Spring Bonnie suit was gone but a bloody stain was left behind."

I stayed silent.

"So I was right. Though I found out that some fools found the Spring Bonnie suit inside the abandon pizzeria. They are using him as an attraction for a haunted house. So after you are done with Mike, fill free to go there and get William.

"Wait but I don't know where to-"

"Ending communication."

The call ended and I gotten mad and threw the phone at the wall. I then looked over to my prey and walked towards him. I pulled out a knife and just as I was about to kill him. He spoke out.

"Wait! Don't do it!"

"Why shouldn't I?"

"Do you really know who I am?"

"Should I?"

"Look my real name is Michael. Michael Afton!"

I was a bit surprised but it felt like a lie.

"Sure tell me that after my conversation with Henry. Michael is out there not here."

"He doesn't truly know me. I was going under a different name because the FBI didn't want my father or Henry to know my true intentions."

"And that is?"

"To stop my father and save the souls he tormented. I already knew about his outcome but I want to find him. After hearing you talk with Henry, it confirmed my suspicion. So please if you want answers. I am the one who can help."

I thought about it for a moment and finally I let him go. I untied him from his chair and led him to my car. We got in and I started driving towards Afton's location. During the drive we talked.

"I still don't trust the whole Afton son thing just so you know."

"I'm fine with that."

"But do you know anything about this Baby animatronic?"

"Yes and it was not very pleasant."

"You met her?"

"Yes and I should of left but I wanted to save her."

"Save who?"

"Elizabeth. My sister."

I felt a little sympathy but I moved on from the conversation but he asked a question.

"What happen to your eye?"

"I lost it in an accident."

"An accident or something that my father did?"

I stayed silent.

"Look I can understand how you feel but my fa-. Woah that doesn't look good."

We arrived at the building but what we saw was not pleasant. The building was on fire and I was shock.

"Shit, what are we gonna do Mike?"

He stayed silent.

"Mike! Michael!"

He snapped out of his thoughts and looked at me.

"I'm sorry Whisper. If he dies here then I am done."

I got mad and ran inside the burning building. He called out to me.

"Whisper you are Insane! You'll die!"

Inside it was pretty hard to see due to the smoke. I tried calling for him.

"Afton!"

No response and the buildings heat was getting intense. Eventually I arrived at the main office and there I see him. I went over to him and hugged him from behind.

"Afton! It's so good to see you. Quick we must go before this building collapse."

I grabbed his hand but he wasn't moving. I turn to look at him and it was almost as if he wasn't responsive. I was starting to think I was too late again but I heard coughing from behind me. I turn and it was a worker for the attraction. He called out to me.

"It's out of…power."

"What? How?"

"Look that thing is dangerous. It must not leave."

I looked at him and I noticed a Taser on his belt and I reached for it but he refused to give it for me. So I helped end his misery. I got the Taser and charged it up to the highest level.

"Let's hope this works."

I shocked him and nothing happen. So kept doing it over and over and nothing happen. The Taser was out of power and I was beginning to cry. Then light begin to shine through his eye lids. I looked and it was a bit weird to see. He blinked his eyes and looked at me.

"Whisper?"

He reached his hand out and touched my face. I pressed my hand on his and shook my head. He looked around and was a bit shock on what's happening.

"What's going on?"

"It's fine, let's get out of here and I'll explain everything."

We started walking straight to the exit but it was hard for me to see. For Afton though he was the one guiding me. Then an explosion went off and Afton got in the way to protect me. He lost his arm from that but it didn't seem to hurt him too much. We made it outside and I started to catch my breath but then I heard a gun getting loaded and I looked up to see Mike pointing it towards Afton. I got up quickly and got in front of Afton to shield him.

"What are you doing!?"

"I am ending this Whisper!"

"Michael?"

I heard Afton and it seem to have confirmed who Mike really is. I ignored it though.

"Yes it's me, father. I followed your plan in hoping to find something. Instead only to learn I was a suit myself. Then learning that my sister was turn into those things. How could you do that to her?"

"I am-"

"No, your apology isn't enough. It's time to end all of this."

He was about to pull the trigger but I charged towards him slapping the gun out of range as it went off. I punched him in the face and he fell down. I grabbed the gun as he dropped it and aimed it at him. He was shocked.

"Wait, Whisper don't-"

*BANG*

I didn't give him time to answer and I threw the gun away. I looked back at Afton. I can't really tell how he's reacting to me killing his own son. As I was walking I stopped for a moment because I felt pain around my chest. I touched it and only to find blood coming out. My eyes went wide and Afton noticed and started walking towards me. I fell but he grabbed me before I hit the ground.

"Whisper! No, I don't want to lose you. Not again!"

"It's alright Afton. If you keep me in a safe place. I'll be back all good as new. I promise…"

I blacked out and before I left Afton again. I can faintly hear him cry. Once again I am in the blackness of unknown world. I know time moves faster in here then out there. So I figure I got a few hours left before I head back. Then a voice called out to me.

"Whisper."

I turned and was not surprise to see who it was.

(Back at the attraction)

Michael wakes back up and looks around only to find that Whisper and William have left.

"Damn."

He got up and begins to walk away. He was a bit hurt but eventually found his way to a nearby gas station. He touched his head and was starting to feel a bit sick. He walked inside the station and asked for the bathroom. The worker looked a bit annoyed but he showed Michael where it was. He went inside and locked the door. He took off his shirt and looked at himself in the mirror. The he noticed that his stomach was making weird movements and soon it started taking an effect on him. He started moving around crazy and thrashing everything. The worker knocked on the door.

"Hey what are you doing in there?"

He couldn't respond due to the fact that he has something trying to get out of my mouth. But eventually it came out and it went through the air vents of the bathroom and Michael fell to the ground. The worker broke down the door.

"Okay what the hell are-"

He was horrified to what he is witnessing. He bend down next to Michael lifeless body.

"Hey are you okay?"

No response but a voice called out.

"You won't die."

The worker heard it and look to where it was. It kept repeating its words.

"You won't die. You won't die. You won't die."

Then Michael opened his eyes and got himself up. The worker turned to see him get up.

"What the hell are you?"

"A creation that shouldn't have happened. Though for you, you are just another victim."

The worker turned back to the mysterious voice only to be greet with ten eyes looking down at him. He tried to run but was grabbed by the figured.

"AAAHHH!"

Michael put on his shirt and cleaned off the blood from his face. He looked down to see the workers car keys and he took it. Before he left, the figure jumped down from the air vent inside a new suit. Michael then spoke.

"Listen maintaining a human body is difficult for you guys. I suggest getting a new body that's more suitable for you."

He begin to walk away and it began to follow. He stopped and turned.

"I am also leaving you. As much as I don't want to especially you Elizabeth. I have too because this is a path that I must find for myself. But I can be sure that we will find each other again. Just maybe when it's only you and not them. Good bye."

He left the gas station and into the workers car. He drove off but as he was driving he reached for his phone and called a number. It answered.

"Henry, it's me Michael. I found him and her. It was where you said I'll find her. They were all there but we need to end this. I could have stopped my father but that girl got in the way. I tried my best to hold Elizabeth and her friends inside me but I couldn't. So we are gonna go with Plan B. Whatever you want me to do I will do it. Even if it means my life. Alright I'm going to come find you so give me your location. I'll see you soon."

He ends the call and return to his thoughts. He knows that Whisper will be a problem but he knows how to deal with her.
