Chapter 2

The Pizzeria has seen better days.

Now it is a shadow of its former self, it was reopened after a few years of being closed, thanks to the little girl asking her grandfather to buy it and reopen it after having checkups done to the entire pizzeria so there weren't any mishaps or anything wrong.

But then it was closed again when another disappearance happened, this time the little girl that asked her grandfather was the one to have disappeared.

When it was discovered that she vanished inside the pizzeria, it was closed down again after an investigation was done.

The grandfather was heartbroken when he found out, he always saw her in the backstage room with Scales whenever they came to the place.

Now, after being closed for many years and have been forgotten by everybody who moved away, the pizzeria was reopened for the new residents who moved in that took the places of the former customers.

Everything was going well, but not like how it use to when the pizzeria was first opened all those years ago. Now they had a large crowd of customers and that's it, not the large mob that fills the building to the brim with excitement.

The animatronics were cleaned of all the age and stains that accumulated over the years and were working right.

Scales was still in the backstage since they couldn't activate him still, there were two people working on him, one a mechanic and one a technician.

"What do you think is wrong with it?" the mechanic said with irritation in his voice said grumpily as he cleaned some of his tools from working on Scales when he ended up getting oil on them.

"Don't disrespect him! He participated in the Company games that use to go on years ago and worked his tail off, even if the games aren't done anymore." the female technician said while pointing her screwdriver at him threateningly, making him raise his hands in mock surrender before she continued speaking.

"Anyway, from what I can see the people that were working on him didn't even notice that the power line, power receiver, and the power source itself is shot to hell." the technician said while placing her screwdriver down after memorizing where the power line is along with the power receiver is located within the mess of wires from the opening in Scales endoskeleton back after taking the back of his costume off along with the back of his costume head.

"All I need to do is replace these things and he should power on, hopefully." the technician said to herself as she looked through the box of parts she brought with her while the mechanic finished cleaning his tools and was looking at Scales with narrowed eyes before he started to poke Scales in the shoulder repeatedly while the technician was distracted.

What neither of them notices was Scales tail was lifting itself up slowly and was right behind the mechanic before it thwacked the mechanic in the back of his head, making him yelp.

"What the hell?!" the mechanic said loudly while looking behind him to see nothing while Scales tail was back in its previous position.

The mechanic turned back around to see the technician was holding in her laughter.

"Oh haha, very funny." the mechanic grumbled as the technician got back to work on Scales after finding the right parts.

"Alright, let's see here." she said quietly to herself as she started to take out the power receiver, the mechanic still grumbling started to distract himself by looking around the room.

After a few minutes she was done replacing the power receiver and started to work on the power line, it takes some more time since she has to move all the other wires out of the way and to keep them there until she's done.

"This is harder then it looks." She said quietly to herself as she finished connecting one end of the power line to the receiver, now she had to replace the power source for it to work.

"And here comes the hard part." the technician says to herself out loud as she looks at the batter with many wires connected to it along with the latches holding it in place.

"You almost done?" the mechanic said impatiently from his spot in a chair, earning an irritated look.

"Why don't you try to do this delicate work that could fry your brain for about two hours." She said while glaring at him, making him look away with a little bit of sweat trailing down his forehead.

"That's what I thought." the technician said as she took out a new battery that is self-charging and set it down next to her while she started disconnecting the wires on the old battery.

After 10 minutes she got the old battery disconnected and started to take it out, as it came out she saw that it was charred and blackened to the point it looked like a piece of charcoal rather than a battery.

"Holy shit." the technician said absentmindedly while staring at the battery, along with the mechanic who was looking at it with wide eyes.

"Guess we just found out why he wouldn't power on." the technician said before she snapped out of it and placed the old battery down, picked up the new one and started to install it in Scales, while she was doing that the mechanic was looking at the old battery.

"My guess is that it was overcharged by something." the mechanic said as he continued to look at it while the technician was about halfway done installing the new battery.

"What makes you say that?" the technician said sarcastically while she continued working.

"Because there is no way that the chargers they had back then for the animatronics could generate the needed electricity to do this to a battery of this kind." the mechanic said as he finished looking at the old battery and saw the technician staring at him after she was finished with the new battery.

"What?" the mechanic said with a raised eyebrow, causing the technician to shake her head.

"Nevermind." the technician said as she looked at the new battery before putting the back of the costume back on and latched it back in place before she looked at the switch on the back of Scales endoskeleton head.

"Here goes nothing." She muttered before she flipped it, after a few seconds nothing happened, which made her sigh sadly and the mechanic to frown slightly.

"Guess there really is no way to fix him." the technician said as she got her kit and started to leave with the mechanic following suit, but they were stopped when they heard something.

Something behind them.

Slowly they turned their heads to look behind them, to see Scales still as a statue, but before they could do anything, they saw Scales hand twitch, then his head, and his body started moving until he was standing.

MAIN ROOM A FEW MINUTES LATER

The band was done singing a song for the children who were cheering loudly before they started playing with each other or eating pizza.

Foxy was in his cove, peeking out the small opening to see all the children happy, which brought a feeling of both warmth and pain, the warmth from seeing the children all happy and enjoying themselves and the pain from not being able to bring joy and fun to the children with his acts and tales of the seven sea's.

But he does toss a chocolate coin out when no one is looking and he tosses it in a way to where it will land close to a group of children or one by themselves, exploring the main room.

Everything was put on hold when the technician and mechanic came out of the backstage room.

"We got a big announcement to make!" The technician said with excitement in her voice, making all the children become excited, the adult wondering what the announcement is, and the band along with Foxy wonder in confusion of what it is.

"Do you remember that animatronic that was very sick and couldn't perform at all until he was better?" the mechanic asked, receiving multiple 'yes's from the children along with nodding heads.

"Well, he's better and ready to get back to entertaining!" the technician said with more excitement as she and the mechanic stepped aside as the backstage door opened and stepped out in a clean new costume was Scales, tall and proud as he was first activated.

"Hello, young ones." Scales said as he walked forward before he kneeled in front of the group of children, who were bouncing in place from excitement at seeing him, making Scales chuckle before he spoke again.

"Are you ready for the time of your lives?" Scales asked with a raised brow, his answer was cheering from the children.

TIMESKIP

Scales had a small smile as was reminiscing about what happened earlier in the day, now it was night time and he was informed about a person that comes in at twelve to watch over the place until six in the morning, which surprised him since he thought that he and the other animatronics could do that perfectly fine.

He was told that the group plays games on the night guard, seeing who can get to him and scare him the most, and that results in the guard quitting in a few days since they never last a full week, close, but not a full one.

And it also so happens that it's the first day of this night guard, so this is going to be fun, Scales was told that the gang has a routine they use on the first day and as the week progresses it becomes more hard for the guard. But now that he was in, he was a wild card, and he had a feeling that the guard will not be expecting him.

Scales was standing in a spot between the pirate cove and the main stage, close to the backstage door, but under the camera, so the guard can't see him.

"This is going to be so good." Scales thought to himself as he saw Bonnie step off the stage and make her way to the backstage room. When she was out of the camera's view she waved at him, making him wave back as she stepped into the backstage room.

A few seconds later Scales heard a yelp, a loud high pitch yelp that still told Scales what gender the guard was.

"You have got to be kidding me if that was a guy then i'm going to scare big time." Scales thought with a twitching eye and brow as he stared in the direction of the office the night guard is situated in.

"Let the games begin." Scales muttered out loud quietly, his voice being carried throughout the entire building, making the animatronics chuckle happily since they have an old member to join in the game and a shiver of fear and dread down the night guards back, making them go wide-eyed with fear and terror as they stared at the silhouette of another animatronic in the camera in the main room that was unknown to them since the recording didn't say anything about it.

"This is going to be awful." the night guard said quietly, not expecting an ominous chuckle to echo throughout the building to answer them, making them shiver in fear as they brought their knees to their chest and held the tablet close to their face with a look of pure terror.
