A story based on RP's done with my girlfriend. It's our one-year anniversary and I love her. Take note that this is VERY loosely based on FNAF and is in no way accurate. If you like a cute story with hints of FNAF in it, then continue on.
Happy Anniversary Baby Bun.
There was a small place deep in the galaxy, little bubbles like stars overflowing the place and making what would be an empty void rather beautiful. In each bubble were buildings, large and small, some being no bigger than a house and some being so big that thousands of people could get lost inside. Each bubble seemed to be running their own story of an old pizzeria becoming haunted by the ghosts of kids who had perished at the hands of a purple man. Some of these bubbles were traditional, a bunny named Bonnie, a chicken named Chica, a fox named Foxy, and a bear named Freddy would terrorize a nightguard or two, along with variations and different skills. These bubbles were mostly horror and evil, though some allowed the souls to carry on in a new light and in a new way that others wouldn't ever allow.
A certain bubble that showed a simple pizzeria with one main room and a security office in the back held four humanoid robots with animal features. The round, robust man with bear ears and a smile that could melt hearts was Freddy. His overalls were a bit messy, but that only showed that he was a real worker when it came to his job. Too his right was a thin female with blonde hair and a bib, a yellow sun dress running down to her knees. She gave a cheerful smile to everyone, licking her lips whenever she noticed pizza. The gleam in her purple eyes shined each time a slice passed by on stage was almost blinding at times, this gleam only being present in the chicken girl named Chica. Outside of the three on stage, the fourth tucked away in the corner. He was a burly, tall man with a hook for a hand and a giant orange tail, his ears the sharpest around. Despite the human appearance, there were holes in his skin that showed the advance robotics underneath. Circuits and hardware showed that allowed the bots to move and act like normal people, a true marvel for the time. He snickered at all the children playing around and eating pizza, swinging his hook onto a wooden stake on his stage and leaning onto it. It was a nice day as always in his eyes, the man named Foxy always being cheerful in the roughest of days.
And then, there was a tall man in a purple get up that made him look like a waiter for the restaurant. He bounced his ears softly as he strummed on his guitar, his ruby eyes trailed the instrument as he played for the bear man, chuckling to himself as he did. He loved the music he could make and the cheers he got from the crowd, letting his rabbit ears swing more freely the happier he got. Despite this, there was a hint of something in his eyes that also showed that he was deep in thought, something clearly having stolen his attention for the day. This was Bonnie, the man who would have the wildest night of his life and forever change the way he would view life in general.
Life was an odd thing for Bonnie. It was unfortunate, really, being surrounded by kids who still have a childhood ahead of them, something that was ripped away for the five of them. He wished he could go back and save himself sometimes, stopping the evil man in his tracks and letting their souls be free. But years had gone bye, allowing the young souls to grow up in their possessed machines. Whatever the machines were in this universe, they weren't as painful to move around in and the souls who inhabit them all. Bonnie sighed weakly, looking up. While the souls were allowed to live one more time, aging mentally into the bots they are now, the little golden spirit above him never got that luxury. The little kid with golden bear ears simply stared at Bonnie as he performed, breaking him out of thought and making him feel uneasy. Bonnie shook his head and continued to play, wondering to himself if the being stuck like this was a good thing, his thoughts returning soon with a simple question. Is it better to be here entertaining innocent people or would a life would have been better?
As the day roared on and the night approached, the building would slowly empty, the doors locking at eleven. This gave the four time to clean up the mess and allow the nightguard to have a simple night without worry. This was done quick as a new nightguard was hired and they didn't want the poor human to have to handle the mess the moment they walked in. It was a thankless job, unfortunately, since they made sure no one knew that they were sentient. It was Foxy's idea, saying that every tv show he had ever watched confirmed that they would be experimented on if they tried to show themselves, something they four would grow to fear as time passed. The nightguards always had a cold chill around them and that was all they would ever get to knowing about their sentience. At least, not until their night mode kicked in.
Freddy took the trash as Bonnie swept, Chica doing her best to make the bathrooms spotless. Foxy was in charge of straightening tables, something he didn't enjoy due to only being able to use a single hand to due the job, though the rest had agreed that the other jobs would be much harder for him.
"Aye, I still think I can do trash with ease. I'd just hold the bag with me hook." Foxy murmured with an accent as thick as the seas his character originates from. Freddy looked at him and shook his head, crossing his arms.
"Sorry, but you would still have to tie them up. Don't worry foxy, the folks up on the top of the food chain will fix you up soon." Freddy said in his country-esq voice, putting the begs near the entrance, ready to be taken out. "Gotta wonder how your body breaks so often…" Foxy rolled his eyes and watched as Chica slowly moved away from the bathrooms, sticking her tongue out.
"Ah gotta say, partners, them bathrooms are awful. Downright vile. An utter pigsty… Least for I got in there!" She chirped, her country accent much heavier than Freddy's and she laid it on almost every word she could when speaking. The foxy man couldn't help but smile, rubbing his eyepatch and nodding his head.
"Aye lass, you do a fine job, even in the worst of storms." Foxy brushed his hook through his long messy hair, the dark orange locks flowing slightly as he tried to make himself look cool to the short, curly haired woman before him. He received a tongue sticking out of him in a playful manner, the chicken girl skipping away and getting onto stage. Foxy sighed weakly and smiled, taking hold of the purple, star patterned curtain and easing it around, closing himself off from the rest. No matter how far they've grown, they were still pretty childish at heart and Chica was the prime example of that.
Bonnie finished sweeping and scratched his shaggy purple hair, letting his hears lower as the lights begin to dim, casting a shadow over his face. It was getting late and the new nightguard would be here any moment. He swept everything he had piled up into a corner near the stage and gripped his broom and dustpan, scooping it all up with ease. He moved towards the trash can in the corner and dumped it in, setting the tools down. It wasn't the easiest, the broom being old and wooden chips peaking out from the overuse. It caught on his suit and made it frustrating to pull off. Bonnie rolled his metallic eyes and pulled harder, forcing the things off and setting the broom down.
"Ah great… Now I gotta fix my suit… Ugh, later." Bonnie muttered, stretching his arms and brushing the splinters off his suit, turning and easing himself onto the stage. The others helped him up and gave him soft pats on the back. He had to sigh and be thankful that they were all so kind and helpful to each other. It was obvious that they would have to be close and kind to each other, to be fair. Bonnie still had clouded memories of himself and the others as they laid on the floor, suits being moved around. He remembered Chica waking up with horrified eyes later on, the others doing so as well and how they all came together to realize who they are. There would be comfort later, but the four realized there were some messy insides that needed to be buried… And if they tried to tell anyone, they may end up dismantled and gone. Freddy did attempt such a thing once, but they had to play dumb as they spoke of dismantling to discover what in the A.I. had changed.
Bonnie snapped as he heard the bell ring out, the lights going out. He stood straight and still, sighing weakly as he began setting himself into standby mode. He had to be careful not to look at the new night guard until he could properly learn about the guy. At first, nightguards didn't seem like a problem after a week of work. But for that first week, the four friends would find themselves out of their own control, stalking the person in an attempt to…
"Bonnie!" Chica snapped with a whisper, breaking the rabbit's concentration. She pointed in a panic to the broom from earlier, a bow tie neatly on the top of the thing. Bonnie's eyes widened as he felt his neck, realizing that the broom had snagged a prize before being placed back down. He had to get it quick, not wanting the nightguard to find it and try to place it back. Bonnie slipped down with a soft thunk, thanking the heavens that they were able to be quiet despite how heavy they were. He slipped passed the stage and moved towards the trash can, listening out for the front door nearby. He hadn't heard it open, so he assumed he still had time. That was the case, in his head, until he grabbed his bow, only to hear a sharp yelp from the door. He slowly turned his head, getting caught off guard by the guard.
For the first time in a long while, it looked like the pizzeria had hired a woman nightguard, her short, dark hair laying neatly in place as her rather curved figure and robust features shook him to his core. He was an adult now, but growing up with only a few glimpses at mothers and technicians hadn't given him much of an imagination. She, on the other hand with her tight guard outfit and well fitted jeans, left his imagination running wild.
Or at least for a few seconds as the reality of the situation hit him like a truck as the caucasian woman let out a cry of surprise and pulled a small black device and fired it at Bonnie. He felt his body jerk and spasm as a metallic scream ringed from his lips, the lights in his eyes flashing violently and causing the woman to stumble back in surprise. The thing she hit couldn't have been human if it had this kind of reaction. Bonnie wish he had a better way to fight whatever had happen, but he was out like a light as he felt the energy in him overload and shut him down, his body colliding with the floor in a heavy fall, his ear bending with the impact.
The woman did not have long to react, the fall scaring the other three robots into acting. She watched them begin to turn on with black eyes, white pinpricks shooting toward her. Her first thought was to escape, but they would probably follow and she was not about to have a marathon when she already had to walk all the way here. She already took one down, but her taser was probably only worth one more shot. She looked at the fallen bot before her and hissed, grabbing the bent ear and attempted to drag him towards the back. The security doors were able to shut via magnets and keep things out, she was told, so that was her safest bet. Unfortunately, taking a hostage was harder than it looked at he scrapped against the floor.
"How fat are you!?" She groaned as she looked at the metal bot on the floor. The others were beginning to move their limbs, functions beginning to return as they looked furiously at the woman. She was in trouble and if she didn't get a move on, she'd be just as bad off as the rabbit on the floor. She took a look at the trash can they both met at and noticed it had wheels on the bottom. Adrenaline was her only hope now as she dumped the thing over with the bag slipping out, shoving the rabbit in and using all her strength to lift the thing back up with him inside, rushing the can towards the door as she heard the stomps of the robots behind her.
"Okay! Buttons on both doors! I have their friend! They wont attack me! Safe safe safe!" She cried as she rushed down the hallway passed the kitchen, swinging the can to the right and throwing it into the lockers on the back of the walls, running in and hitting the buttons as fast as she could. The doors hissed against the metal as they slammed down, a metal slam coming next as the animatronic humans collided with the doors. She was shaking as they pounded on the doors, backing up as she looked up at the clock. Twelve o' five. She had to deal with the entire shift like this? What kind of business has killer robots that fight to get into your office for six hours? She groaned as she remembered them speaking about a generator that only gave a certain amount of power per night and she knew she'd have to open the doors soon.
"Stop! I took down one of you and I can get another! Leave me be or I swear I'll dismantle his ass!" She threatened, taser in hand as she prepared for the worst from the three fighting to break the doors down. What she wasn't really prepared for was two purple ears poking out the can as Bonnie slowly rose to his feet. He rubbed his face and groaned weakly, much to the woman's horror, he was waking up and much taller than she was prepared for. He then opened his eyes, the ruby color in his eyes different to the haunting abysses that the others had, the sight causing a slight heat to rise to her face. Bonnie slowly brought his gaze up, trying to figure out where he was, the clock taking him by surprise the most.
"What? Past twelve… I'm not…* The male robot scratched his face, then his eyes finally felt onto the woman who had rendered him incapacitated. He blinked for a moment, tilting his head as she eyed him with a mix of fear and fascination. She's been to the pizzeria many times during the day and she was used to the movement flow the robots possessed. It fascinated her, but to see them move like this was almost unreal. She watched as the bots eyes fell on her, his eyes widen and he began to shake. He raised his hand to say something, only for a rather large bang to hit the door. Both their heads shot to the door and it took him a moment to realize what was going on.
"Ugh!? Check the cameras! Make sure they're all at the doors!" Bonnie yelled, startling her even more. She didn't question why he spoke with such a voice, so close to a living person, nor did she let herself be worried about the fact a robot was commanding her to do the thing he asked. She simply slide to the cameras and started mashing buttons. They hadn't taught her how they worked, but the simple panel with the different cameras to select seemed easy enough, allowing her to reach the cameras that governed the doors. While she didn't see much. It was obvious that a multitude of different arms and legs were appearing with each swing.
"I-I think so! I can see their arms, but not them! Is the door a blind spot!?" She cried, only getting an irritated grunt from the robot. He rushed to the left door and started slamming his fist against the light switch over and over.
"Hit the lights! Keep doing it then! It's like a reset for us!" Bonnie yelled, hitting his switch over and over with his eyes shut. The girl responded by spinning around and hitting her own door light. After a few moments, mechanical groaning could be heard outside the doors along with the sound of dragging feet scrapping the floor. Bonnie began to shake as he slide down to his knees, gritting his teeth while the girl nervously looked out the window, she turned and looked at her new acquaintance, the poor male seemingly on the verge of tears. It made her wonder just how close to human they had actually made these machines.
"Uh… You okay? What's wro-" Before she could ask, he hit the wall, his fist crunching against the metal wall. He would mutter under his breath, allowing her a few words from him.
"…Those resets hurt so bad… I know… It's been so long… I'm so sorry…" He choked out, slowly turning and falling onto his rear to see the woman who would be starting her first night here. "… Please don't tell anyone…" The desperation in his voice rocked her to her core, like a child begging to not be in trouble when they broke something or misbehaved. She kept her taser up and aimed it, though she gave the thing a sympathetic look. She was gonna survive this night, even if she had to play along with the weird rabbit guy bot thing.
"Then… Start explaining… Why are you all attacking me… Why are you talking like you're an actual person? I know you freaks look the part, talk the part, and… Emotions!?" She growled and pressed the gun to him, making a point-blank shot if he tried anything. "What's up with you all… and after you tell me, get me the hell out of here and I won't utter a word." The robot looked at her and sighed weakly, a look of embarrassed defeat on his face. And once he looked back, he began to speak.
It was a small story, one familiar to many bubbles in the multiverse and one she would get to hear herself. Five kids who wanted to enjoy pizza and watch the robot characters perform, enjoying themselves when a new robot showed up, his body acting more human than the ones on stage. The golden rabbit man promised them treats and much more if they came to the animatronics main room, the parts and services. They would go in, only to have their lives taken and their world warped beyond any measure. They were forced to be these robots and bury themselves, Foxy spouting things about how they would be experimented on or dismantled if they tried to speak. They were able to somewhat get revenge, but they were forced to stay as the robot attractions after. They managed to grow up spiritually and be adults who learned to play and perform and work with the restaurant outside of one, but why they were so advanced was beyond their knowledge. She listened as he rattled of the ability to pass off as human for unknown reasons outside of a few special mechanisms in them and some sound properties, but was clueless beyond that. Being able to cry and other things helped make things easier to cope once their lives were ripped from them. He ended his tale by stating that once his three friends were back to normal from the reset, it would be safe to go to the door as they were programmed to not leave the property and once she was across the street, they wouldn't be able to tail her.
"Then why don't I just run for it now?.." She would ask and in return, the answer she got was simple. THEY would be guarding the way there.
Bonnie sat at the chair as he looked through the cameras, finding Foxy stalking the halls and Chica dragging herself through the dining room. With a weak sigh, he would also take notice of Freddy near the way to the entrance, confirming his own words. He slide back from the chair as the girl sighed, rubbing her face.
"Any chance we could just wait out the clock?..." She muttered, Bonnie giving her a frustrated look.
"They're abuse on the door drained the battery severally. There isn't enough to last to six in the morning. I can convert some of battery to recharge your taser, which should give it another full battery after you use it again, but after that, were out of luck. So you have three chances to shock them so I can get them somewhere safe. If that thing shocked me out of my night mode, it might due the same to them. We have to be ready… Foxy is really fast… So is Freddy… I'll have to distract them for you to get a shot. Considering how tasers are, you will need to be up close." Bonnie laid out the plan to the young woman, getting a frustrated look from her.
"Before you go ordering me around, at least know that my life here is important and I also have a name. I expect respect and to be addressed properly." She said, hands on hips as the man rolled his eyes.
"Didn't stop you earlier, did it?" He shot back, then sighed weakly and crossed his arms, kicking his foot up to get the chair to lean back. "Alright… My name is Bonnie… Don't ask for my human name, because that's long gone… And what might your name be, little lady?" She glared at the nickname, though the low tone he gave her with it caused a slight blush to appear on her face.
"Er… Autumn… There, first name bases! Now how do we handle Foxy!" She demanded, stomping the ground and causing her form to bounce slightly. Bonnie rubbed his dented ear, wincing slightly as he begin to speak.
"Easy… We open the left door and we let him charge at us." Bonnie muttered, getting a horrifying look from the girl. He raised his hand, shaking his head to signal he wasn't done. "I've been on the receiving end of his tackles a lot. He was born a sports star and never got to live up to it. He's fast and he's accurate. The hallway is just narrow enough for me to grab him the moment he reaches us, no matter what angle he'll take to reach you. You just need to be ready for when I grab him." She shook her head and backed off towards the wall, gritting her teeth.
"I still have to put myself in danger to get out? How can I trust you to keep me safe? No one else ever cared." She muttered, her voice growing weak and her eyes lowering. Bonnie was curious on the sudden shift in tone, but chose to wait to ask and came over, resting his hand on her shoulder.
"We aren't monsters… We're forced to be like this… And I promise that, as I am now, I will protect you with everything I got. We'll save my friends and get you out." His voice was stern, yet soft, causing a slight fluttering feeling to flood her chest. Without any other responses, she would nod and Bonnie would get into position at the door. "Okay… Tap my back and get ready to run to the back of the hall. Then aim and be ready to fire…" She had to take a moment to think that this moment was insane. It hasn't been more than thirty minutes and she had found herself in a life-or-death situation, forced to trust a robot who claims to be a soul of someone who died years ago. The idea of robots being possessed and being this close to human was ludicrous at best and stupid at worst. And of course, she had to believe it because she had no other choice. She tapped his back, then gripped the taser with shaky hands.
Bonnie hit the button and slide outside quick, clenching his fists so hard that his finger tips scratched the metal of his palms. Foxy had just rounded the corner when he spotted his friend, the big white iris scanning him curiously. The moment Autumn took a step out behind Bonnie, his white orb shrank to a pin prick and his jaw unhinged, a low metallic screech echoing down the hall. Autumn steeled herself as the robotic man dashed down the hall, his hook scratching the wall and tearing the pictures off the walls. He leaped to try and get over Bonnie, only to be grabbed by the neck and slammed to the ground, forcing the fox onto his knees in a shaky hold.
"Foxy! Come on! S-Stop!" Bonnie cried, gritting his teeth as the metallic fox man kicked and scratched and kicked at Bonnie. Each strike damaged the poor bot as he tried his best to keep Foxy down. After moments of the struggle, Bonnie's eyes shot open as he looked over to Autumn. "Why aren't you firing it!? I can't ho-"
"I…I can't…" Autumn said through heavy breathing, the taser still aimed and shaking violently. She looked pale like she couldn't bring herself to fire at a monster, something that was slowly costing Bonnie his body as Foxy's hook suddenly slammed into Bonnie's arm and pulled down, tearing a huge hole into it. Bonnie winced hard and started to scream.
"Fucking pain receptors! How do you humans fucking function!?" Bonnie screamed as he jumped over Foxy to escape his arms, only for foxy to start kicking him in the head and drag them both towards Autumn, his face desperate to kill. "A-Autumn! HELP!"
Something snapped in Autumns head at hearing bonnie cry for help, a thought that he had cried for help long ago and no one was there, cries for help in her own voice and people she knew, cries for help that never get answered. She grit her teeth and looked at Foxy with fury in her eyes as she took aim and fired. Foxy looked up at the thing flying at him, smacking him in the forehead and shocking the poor, uncontrollable fox man.
The two slowly dragged Foxy into the security room, effectively freeing the main halls from his stalking. As they were moving, Autumn began to mutter something under her breath. Bonnie's hearing was very good, funnily enough, so he began to catch the things she was saying.
"… I keep… calling for help… My family were so horrible… They did horrible things… And I would call for help over and over and over… No one answered my calls for help… No matter how much I cried and begged and flailed… I can't… let that happen… I can't hear it…" Her cheeks began to grow stained with tears as she tried to hold it in, something Bonnie had to sigh weakly at. Of course, he sympathized as he had lost his life so long ago, no one ever coming to his rescue. As they brought Foxy in and sat his deactivated body on the floor, Bonnie took the time to formulate a reply to her.
"…Sometimes help never comes when you need it… doesn't mean it'll never be answered… And for this night… I'm answering your call…" Bonnie said in a quiet, soft tone, slowly shifting his friend into a comfortable position. Autumn stopped and looked at him, blinking her eyes with a tad look of surprise in them. She hadn't expected him to respond to her, let alone hear her words. She stood and watched as the robotic rabbit slowly moved his friend into a sitting position with stacks of papers behind him to make a somewhat softer thing to lean upon. Her face slowly heated up again and she had to stop for the moment and wonder to herself why she felt this warmth after feeling so sad. She was trapped in a run-down building with killer possessed robots and should be scared, yet this one was being so kind and gentle to his friend, even after his friend tore up the rabbit's arm. And his voice was soft, trying his best to be calm and caring, something others had never done for her. What the hell had she gotten herself into?
Bonnie finished setting his friend up, sighing weakly as he stood up, taking the time to look through the cabinet against the back wall and pulled out electrical tape, peeling off a small bit to act as an anchor, spinning the tape around the long hole on his arm. After doing so, his arm went limp, the lights in his eyes flickering.
"Okay… A lot of wires got sliced up there… A technician is gonna be very confused on why that's there… I'll have to make it look like a show light fell from the ceiling onto me…" Bonnie muttered, moving over to the cameras. Freddy never left the entrance, but Chica had stumbled towards the halls to see what all the noise was earlier. Bonnie had to thank the heavens Chica struggled to move around cluttered areas or else they would have been attacked trying to get Foxy into the office. He then slowly moved his hand behind the cameras and tore the wires out the back, shutting them off.
"I'm smart enough to know how to recharge myself with loose wires, so charging a taser should be hard. Like I said, I can only do this once. Our current energy to power the building has gone down to around thirty percent and I believe ten percent can be spared to try and charge your taser. I say ten percent, despite probably needing a lot less to actually get that thing to full power, but doing it fast enough is why I'm gonna dump the entirety of ten percent into a jolt. Do me a favor and stand back." Bonnie took the tape and wrapped it around the wires and his hand, taking the taser carefully. It wasn't spectacular to watch Bonnie go flying the moment everything connected to put a charge into the taser, but it still got a small giggle and eyes full of wonder from Autumn.
The purple rabbit man slowly lifted himself up off the floor next to Foxy, weakly handing the taser to Autumn before leaning weakly on the wall. They had an hour at least until the power to the building went down from rough estimations, but it was just enough to incapacitate Chica and Freddy so the young woman could get to freedom. She watched him and felt something in her chest hurt, wondering what creep would program robots to be so life like that they could feel pain.
"… To put him back together…" The words made Autumn tense up. She didn't know where it had come from, looking around revealing nothing for it to originate from. She huffed and brushed it off, knowing she didn't have the time to find it. If they were going to do anything now, it would be to stop Chica. Bonnie slowly pushed himself off the door and sighed weakly.
"Chica… Yeah… I can tell you're wondering exactly how we're gonna deal with her, seeing as she's in the open and not monitoring the halls like Foxy… It'll be harder for me to pin her so you can take the shot. I guess I could try to get her attention, but I'll have to pretend I'm in my night mode so I don't arouse suspicion…" Bonnie sighed weakly, looking at Autumn. "Whenever you're ready, we can go." He then blinked, his eyes having vanished, being replaced with hollow voids and white, pinprick irises. Autumn visibly shuttered and looked away.
"We can go now, just don't ever look at me like that again. Like… for the rest of the hour we got left to get me out of here." She said, crossing her arms as Bonnie chuckled at her, nodding. The chuckled made her feel warm once again and she groaned, confused as she hit the button to open the door, the two making their way out and too the end of the hall. As they walked, Autumn looked at the drawings that foxy had cut up on his attack, one of Bonnie catching her eye. She found it cute that the kids who come here would draw the characters who sang to them, yet the big cartoonish smiles and happy faces on their faces made her wish she could see him that happy. He had spent the small moments with her rather down and lost in his crusade to save her that she really didn't get to actually know the guy she was following. She had to wonder how he really was, but that would be for another time.
"Another time?" She asked herself, thinking herself crazy for even thinking she was keeping this job. She was quitting the moment she was out those doors. She felt Bonnie rest his hand on her shoulder, immediately melting her thoughts away as she focused on his touch, all the while he was focused on Chica slowly dragging her feet against the ground, looking around for any intruders or bare endos who needed to be put in a spare suit. Being more advanced, it was rare for bare endos to be around, but that didn't stop the company from cutting corners to ensure that they wouldn't have to mess with them in any unnecessary ways. Bonnie sighed and stood straight up, letting go of Autumn. A simple nod between the two was all that was needed as Bonnie began to walk out while Autumn stayed hidden behind the corner of the hall.
Chica watched the zombie shamble of Bonnie as he moved into the main room, his eyes glancing around sporadically in search of things that were wrong or out of place. She then slowly went back to her own hunt, allowing Bonnie time to search the surroundings. He had to get her close to the other hall so Autumn could do a quick, easy shot to Chica. Chica was being difficult in this regard as she was hovering over the kitchen, making Bonnie roll his vacant eyes. Would he actually have to go get food to lure her out?
Bonnie slowly walked towards the kitchen when Chica wasn't looking, slipping in and quickly darting around to the pizza oven. Knowing the pizzeria, they would have pizzas still warm as they tend to save a box or so for the night guard. This never gets used as intended as most hide in the security office while Chica devours the food. Lucky for Bonnie, she hadn't reached the box this time and it gave him the perfect bait. He began to make his way out when a pair of golden eyes appeared over him, catching him a bit off guard. The sight made him feel uneasy and he tried to walk past it, thinking to himself to discern why Golden would be watching. It's usually the same thing every night, but why would he be visible for it? Why did he want to be seen?
Bonnie didn't have time to wonder and simply exited the room. The moment he did, however, he was greeted by Chica's gaping maw as her eyes were locked on his. Bonnie shook for a moment and then returned to the night mode charade as he slowly moved around her, watching her eyes follow the him and then the pizza box. Bonnie sighed internally, slowly moving his way around her and slowly towards the hallway where Autumn was peaking out. The two robots continued to move and all seemed to be going smooth, almost like silk, until Chica started to mutter something. Bonnie's ears twitched and he attempted to listen in, only for his entire face to go pale.
"…Arm… Weird… The girl…"
In a moment, Chica had lunged from her spot, near completely airborne as she lunged at Autumn, whose face had gone wide with terror at the sight of the bird girl trying to reach her. For a moment, Bonnie recalled the things Autumn had said about her family and the way life was. The abuse she must have adorned among other things ripped through Bonnie's mind as his bad harm reached feverishly towards Chica, grabbing her by the leg. The force was enough to rip the tape around Bonnie's arm, causing him to cry out in pain as Chica's body was stopped midair and then slam down into the ground. The chicken girl started to scratch and screech as she tried to force her way towards Autumn. Bonnie held on for dear life to stop Chica, his arm beginning to tear itself right out of it's socket. The moment Bonnie's arm gave out, he heard the sound of the taser being fired and Chica's desperate screech turning into a painful cry. It only lasted a few moments, Chica's body flailing about until collapsing right at Autumn's feet, the bird girl finally deactivated. Bonnie panted heavily as he let himself fall onto the ground, Autumn taking the time to slowly force Chica up into a sitting position. She hated how heavy they were, but knowing Bonnie, he would like his friend upright. After perching the bird girl onto the wall, she walked over to bonnie and nudged him.
"Hey… Come on… Get up. There's only one more we gotta subdue… They wont attack you after, right?" Autumn muttered, trying her hardest to get Bonnie to move. Slowly, but surely, he would move and fail to keep himself up. He couldn't say it at the moment, but he had sustained serious damage to his arm and his programming was trying to to an emergency shut down.
"Need… Arm piece… Parts and Services…" Bonnie managed to sputter. He then went limp and his eyes dimmed, most of his energy going into trying not to be turned off. Seeing him like this shook Autumn to her core as she rushed to him. She looked left and right as she looked for where the room he mentioned was. Upon seeing it, she would grip his shoulders tightly and do her best to drag him towards it. Despite the struggle she had before, a strange golden haze seemed to befall upon her, making the drag there as easy as moving an empty rolling trash can.
She laid him on the table as she started looking around desperately for something to help him. She looked around desperately as the objects in the dark room confused her, the bare endos that rested within like disappointed viewers watch her fail to save the rabbit who was risking being caught and being torn apart just to save her. She was not gonna let him down. She was not gonna fail. She was not gonna lose him.
Suddenly, a large clang could be heard behind her, causing her to whirl around to see what the source was. A strange metal brace with springs no bigger than her fist lay on the ground, something telling her that this was what was needed. She picked it up and rushed over to Bonnie as she started undoing the tape around his arm. She let out an audible gasp at the huge tear that was along his metallic arm, the elbow nearly torn off due to the strain he had endured. She started to mess with his arm, cutting her fingers as she tried to pull the metallic junk out of his elbow, all of her might going into getting it out so she could help him and then-
She was staring out into the void, the darkness sucking in everything around her in a way, yet she felt calm. The space she was in should have been cold, yet she felt warmth all around her and the darkness didn't phase her. In that darkness, a small purple light shined dimly, a young boy sitting in it with scars all along his body. She slowly willed herself closer to the figure, curiosity in his eyes as she looked him up and down. He was young, dark hair and a rather chubby face, his clothes torn, but where still coherent enough to show they were overalls. She would gently rest her fingers on his chin, wanting to get a better look at his eyes. As she lifted them up, his body would stretch and contort, his ruby eyes being visible as the boy soon grew up to a person around her age with curly black hair and a weak smile, his clothes baggy and welcoming for a hug, the dark pallet seemingly not matching the brightness in his face. Soon, purple rabbit ears would sprout from his head, his body changing once again to the animatronic who had been helping her out. It was him, that spirit within the animatronic. She hadn't ever felt this warm before in her life and she was beginning to understand what it was she was feeling from him.
She blinked and Bonnie's hand was on hers, both of them back in the room full of broken robot parts and electronic scrap. The lights in Bonnie's eyes were back as he slowly leaned up into a sitting position, rubbing his elbow as he tried to asses where he was. Before he could, he felt the soft embrace of Autumn as she latched onto him, arms around his neck. She held him to her for a moment, the feeling so unique that it made him freeze in place. He could swear that he felt his heart beating hard at the hug, the desire to save her this night and then to hug back sending him into a hurricane of new emotions. The hug would come to an end, Bonnie felt something tug his elbow at the release. He would look down, seeing a light-yellow cloth wrapped around where the electrical tape was, along with a reapplied amount under the clothe.
"What… Is that?" Bonnie muttered, getting a deep red face in response from Autumn as she looked away. The sight was more adorable than he could have ever imagined and he wanted to have more of it as soon as possible.
"It's… Well, it's like a lucky blanket. My grandmother gave it to me when I was a baby and I've just… kept it on me since. I figured it would help keep that part in… I-I'm no electrician or mechanic." She said, crossing her arms as she returned to her usual nature. "Can't have you breaking down before I'm out of here anyway." She added, gritting her teeth as she pulled the taser out of her pocket, noting that there was only one charge left. She had tased the daylights out of the Freddy Fazbear cast, yet the main man himself had eluded them. To get outside, she would have to hit her mark. She looked at Bonnie and gave him a weak smile, leaning over to gingerly peck his cheek, sending him for another loop of emotions as she smiled.
"Now… What do we do about Freddy…" The question hit like a truck as Bonnie's mind drew a blank. Freddy was the most lovable of the bunch and only ever wanted to help people and bring smiles to kids and grown-up alike. He was the kindest bot one would ever meet and the most unpredictable during the night.
"Were running out of time. We need to get going." Was all that was said after as they both got themselves situated, walking out the door and into the party room. Bonnie noted the presence of Chica in the hall, sighing weakly at how he has to treat his friends, but he knew another death in the pizzeria would spell disaster for them all. Plus, he didn't even want to think of Autumn having to lose her life at this dreaded place. With that in mind, he continued until he reached the edge of the party room, the sleek red and brown opening of the entrance catching his vision. The register was small, almost fitting for a small establishment, pictures along the walls of deeds and awards for many things. Bonnie hated this room with a passion, but he couldn't fault the owners of the building for wanting to show off achievements. Besides that, there was a figure standing next to the reinforced glass doors, his eyes simply white dots as heavy breathing emitted from him. Bonnie had to visibly shutter and back away. There was a plan for Foxy and Chica, but Freddy was someone you couldn't plan for. Even in the daylight, Freddy was very crafty and strong, helping everyone lift huge stage props and moving them in ways that were near perfect, almost uncanny. The day he managed to make the stage look like a field so real the air even had a breeze, they knew he was special.
And now, he's standing at the door with his eyes trained on Autumn, like a bouncer waiting to remove unwanted guests. Bonnie's face was a dead give away to the situation, but Autumn still nudged him. She knew he had no plan and the only way she was getting out now was to work with the moment. They were both going to have to wing this or lose.
Bonnie was the first to attempt something, being the one that could take much more than Autumn when it came to animatronic wrath. He stepped close, wincing when Freddy mimicked his movements, down to the speed and movement of the step. Bonnie sighed, looking Freddy in the eyes as he began to speak, his tone full of worry and stress, but also determination.
"Freddy… Come on now… Your night mode bear self… You're smart… You can just… leave her alone and we can go fix our friends… I know having someone here makes it hard, but you can fight it." Bonnie gave him a very nervous smile as he tried to talk to his friend, only for Freddy to lull his head to the side, seemingly ignoring Bonnie and aiming at Autumn. She had the taser trained on him, the device ready to go off at any moment. Bonnie sighed weakly and waved his hand weakly at Freddy's face. "Hey?... You in there? We don't usually stay still in our night mode… Freddy?" Before Bonnie could say much more to try and get his friend to move, Freddy grabbed the broken elbow of Bonnie and simply yanked, tearing the metal apart and throwing bonnie to the side, his upper arm laying on the floor. Autumn stared with wide eyes as Bonnie slumped over next to the door leading outside, shaking as he staired at the wires protruding from the small clothe that Autumn had given him. Freddy didn't even watch his friend slam into the wall, simply pushing an object out the way as he stared at the woman who had a very poor career choice. Autumn shook as she took steps back, taser aimed as she tried to process watching Bonnie get hurt in such a way. He was no longer a robot to her at this point, the feelings she had soon boiling to pure rage as she stopped shaking.
"… I hope this hurts." She muttered as she took aim and fired. The device flew towards Freddy in the straightest shot she had ever fired with the device. She had always practiced, needing to ensure her safety after years of evil souls had tried to hurt her, yet it wasn't skill that aimed this shot so perfectly. Despite the clean aim and release, Freddy would somehow vanish from the spot, causing Autumn to visibly gasp as she felt him collide with her from the side, forcing her back to the wall next to Bonnie. Her last shot had just been wasted and Bonnie was down. She was alone.
As fear began to creep into her, the building would make a strange sound, the dim lights beginning to turn off as the power had gone out, another thing adding onto the pile of trouble she had found herself trapped in. In the darkness, the light from the front of the building slowly dimming due to the clouds in the night sky, two orbs of light sparked to life before the two, Freddy's voice creaking and dripping with automation as he walked closer to her.
"Freddy Fazbears does not allow endoskeletons to be unsuited in the public space. Mmmuusssst get a suit that's right for you." Freddy said, his head twitching as he got closer. Autumn began to shake as she pushed herself against Bonnie, the moment hurting as for once, she had found comfort being this close to someone, metal or not, and now she was going to lose it and possibly her life as well. As Freddy loomed closer, Autumn shut her eyes and braced for the horrors that would unfold, only for something unexpected to happen. She was pushed to the side at first, hitting the corner of the door that lead outside. She looked up in shock as Freddy tried to step closer, Bonnie's body on his legs as the rabbit tried to force him to stay still.
"Freddyyy!... Stop!.." He groaned, his eyes flickering as he had once again went against his programming to try and help Autumn. As he did, two more figures would appear behind the bear and grab on to each arm, pulling Fredy backwards. He roared angrily, fighting against the figures as their eyes lit up the room.
"Aye, it's time to take the sails down, mate!" Foxy said, using his hook to keep a firm grip on the bear, his eye patch raised to reveal a hollow hole where his eye should be, yet the white light of his electronics still shined bright.
"C'mon big guy, she isn't like the big scary guards we usually see!" Chica said, gritting her teeth as she pulled back almost comically as she tried to keep Freddy from moving forward. "She's like a marshmallow that needs to go back to her smore family. She's friendly!" The two robots continuously pulled at the bear, the big guy kicking and growling as he threw Bonnie off his feet, the rabbit skidding next to Autumn. He looked at her and gave her a weak smile.
"Now is your chance… The second key on the ring should let you go outside. I told you I'd help, didn't I?" He muttered, his eyes still flickering. This entire night had sent her into an emotional spiral from having robots close to killing her to finding the most human person she's ever met be a robotic attraction. She slowly pulled the key ring off her belt and fiddled with it quickly while Foxy and Chica dragged Freddy away from the two. She pulled the key out and sighed weakly, unlocking the front door and allowing a wave of cool air to blast past her, sweat beading down her head as she was able to call herself a survivor this night. Before she could go though, she felt Bonnie's hand brush against hers. She looked over to him and evaluated his face, noting the hints of sadness in his eyes. He looked sad to see her go, maybe, but she wouldn't quite know for sure. What she did know was the way he looked made her heart skips a feverish number of beats.
She didn't exactly know what came over her next, but she would never forget it. She leaned down, resting her forehead on his for a moment, his ears twitching as they slowly fall lightly onto her head. She let out the faintest of noises, his eyes watching her with confusion. She then slowly pressed her lips on his artificial nose, giving him the softest kiss, he had ever received. It left him with a face so red she couldn't help but giggle. She loved this feeling and he did too, which made it all the more difficult as she exited the building after that little show of affection. Bonnie watched, Freddy beginning to relax for the other two as the only human in the building escaped. She crossed the glossy barren road, growing more and more distant as Bonnie's heart began to sank, the realization that he may never see her again began to sink into him. As quick as his emotions had developed, they were crushed and he didn't exactly know what to do now. He would sit there for the better part of half an hour, looking at the door until his functions began to cease, powering down while the others got him ready for repairs. All the while, the golden eyes from before would appear next to the disabled bot, resting a hand on his head.
"…You did good…"
It was a bright and shiny day at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, a day most would love to come and spend the day eating pizza and playing games. Unfortunately, most of the main shows were cancelled as the rabbit who played in most of them was damaged, forced to sit on a box and wave to kids and take pictures. Where his arm once sat was now a pure white endo arm with white wrapping around it like a cast, meant to hide the electronics while a new arm got made for the poor robot. He sighed lightly, giving a smile when the kids were around and when adults asked for things, but when they weren't doing such things, he had a forlorn, sad expression. He rubbed his ears as his thoughts were assaulted over and over, the feeling of her lips on his nose, the rush he got from listening to her, his soul burning when he saw her smile. That night had changed so much that it left him lost and unable to really function around people. Autumn, the most amazing person in the world and she may never come back.
He had to be somewhat thankful at least. She was safe and probably far away from the cursed establishment, no longer in danger of becoming part of the eternal band. She could live a life not stolen away like they had too. Freddy and the others had also apologized and decided to set up secret taser spots to help shock themselves out of night mode, something that she had also given them. With the knowledge that a rough shock could do such a thing would really help them out when moving about at night without worry of triggering their violent states. Chica even stated that it felt pleasant after, though Bonnie didn't want to even think of why that would be the case.
They must have noticed that Bonnie was lost in thought, going over to him once the last show had concluded. Chica gave him a soft hug and playfully rubbed his ear, giving him soft words of encouragement that he did the right thing and to start being proud of himself for saving a life, Foxy agreeing as he added that it was a step closer to reversing what the terrible man did long ago.
"Stopping death in this trash heap of a ship is the opposite of what that land lubber did to us. We stop the death in the building, his mark gets weaker." Foxy said as he brushed his velvet hair away from his face with a wide, sharp grin. Bonnie had to laugh softly, knowing they were right, but he didn't really consider much of what they said. It wasn't just doing good at this point, unfortunately, Bonnie slipping away from them and walking to the front door once all of the patrons were out the building. The door would be locked as the night sky began to shroud the building already and it gave Bonnie a moment to hide himself in the shadows. He sat down in the exact same spot in which he had been thrown into the night before, wondering how the people who worked here even ignored the damages done around the building. The four robots really did clean up shop well if this was the case, something Bonnie would laugh at as his thoughts slowly brought his eyes to outside, staring out at the rode that Autumn had rushed out of. She probably wouldn't ever come back, not wanting to deal with the dangers of the animatronics.
He was so lost in thought as his gaze was locked on the door that led outside that he didn't hear the footsteps slowly approach him from behind. It didn't take long for a soft hand to gently tap him on the back, jolting him out of his thoughts and causing him to whip his head around to see who had surprised him. His eyes would go wide as his sight fell upon a young woman with a soft smile, her eyes warm and her uniform neat, almost gleaming like she wanted it perfect for her shift. Bonnie let out a weak gasp as he tried to come up with something to say. She simply rest a finger on his lips, quieting him from objecting. She would be in danger, something he wouldn't allow if he could stop her. She slowly raised her hand, revealing a belt to him with four small devices on it, each like the taser she had brought the night before. Each one had a little colored icon on it, the first being a purple bunny, then a red fox, then a yellow bird, and finally a brown bear. Bonnie blinked and then began to laugh weakly, realizing that she had the exact same idea in mind for them. She had always planned to come back, more prepared than ever.
No words were exchanged at this point. She took his hand in hers and lifted him from his slumped state, staring up at the man with rabbit ears, moving her arms around him as she gave him a hug. It was tight, strong, and one he would slowly return with a happy sound escaping him. From then on, things would be much different at night when it came to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. Many would say the robots come alive at night, different from their hyper realistic appearance, movement, and speech like they had during the day. They say a woman had taken the challenge to make things better due to feelings that had developed overnight. Out of every possible universe of robotic monsters that terrorize night guards and people looking for the truth, there exists a patch of them where the souls had freedom to grow up in their new metal bodies. In this patch, one universe had a woman who came into their lives and fended off all four, surviving the night and allowing herself and a metal man with rabbit ears to find comfort and love between each other.
