Greeting: Well...hello! The ones who read this can't turn back anymore.
They can't escape the nightmare which is told in this chapter. Cause that's what's happening.
Storm Jr., here we come.
Enjoy, everybody!
( Freddy's. 9 PM. The main hall. Two days before the Beginning)
The time of day had come to calm and lie down.
The children had left the pizzeria and were going to come back the next day. It was always sad to know that their day was over.
Freddy was eating some pizza with Bonnie and they giggled together, telling jokes.
Bonnie put her guitar away and snuggled Freddy.
Chica went to Felix and asked him to come sleep with her.
Foxy and his family climbed aboard their pirate ship and went to sleep as well.
Unlike Fang, Foxy didn't have a blanket to share with his family. Vixey and Crystal didn't mind at all though.
Foxy kissed them. Crystal on the forehead and Vixey on the lips.
" Good night, my babies", he told Vixey and Crystal.
And so, the pirate foxes joined the sandman on his journey across the world.
Fang, Storm and Willa went to their bed and lay down.
The Toy animatronics went to their small room and decided to play a board game before going to sleep.
They had cleaned their room up and it was tidy for once. The pizzeria around them was a mess nonetheless.
The tables had to be cleaned up and all the bubblegums had to be rubbed off the undersides of the tables.
Only most animatronics went to sleep right then. Storm Jr. had promised to clean the place up in the evening.
She had sworn it in front of Mike who was responsible for cleaning the place up.
And there Storm Jr. was, wiping tables with a wet towel.
She didn't seem tired or bored. She was dancing in place and humming a song.
Mr. Fazbear walked past her on his way to the front door.
" This evening was pain. Are you sure you aren't too exhausted to do this now?", he asked Storm Jr.
She smiled at him happily.
" Yes, I am sure. I don't feel like sleeping just yet", Storm Jr. nodded to him.
" Are you too energized or too scared to sleep?", frowned Mr. Fazbear and peered at her.
" I don't know what you mean by that, Mr. Fazbear", Storm Jr. told him.
Mr. Fazbear crossed his arms and looked into her eyes.
" Fang has told me about your nightly adventures in the land of horrors. Do they scare you?", he asked.
" They're just nightmares. They're not real", chuckled Storm Jr.
" So you are alright then?", Mr. Fazbear wondered.
" I couldn't feel better", she insisted.
Mr. Fazbear nodded a little and walked to the front door.
" See you tomorrow", Mr. Fazbear farewelled her.
Storm Jr. waved at him as he walked out.
Usually Mr. Fazbear would have gone home a lot earlier but he had had work to do.
Customers had been complaining about the arcade machines not working properly. Mr. Fazbear had been there with Mike.
Based on Mr. Fazbear's expression, they had been unsuccessful in fixing them.
After, completing her job, Storm Jr. moved on to cleaning up the Arcade palace.
She glanced at the old, broken arcade machines and saw static in them.
It creeped her out.
It reminded her of something. The machines were creepy and terrifying in a way.
The static in them looked like a mass of messed up faces, screaming to get out and feed.
Even the machines themselves seemed hungry for animatronic metal. They were like metal-eating monsters.
Three pairs of razor sharp teeth appeared in front of Storm Jr.'s vision. She jumped back and shook her head.
It was a simple flashback, nothing more.
Storm Jr. couldn't look at the arcade machines any longer. She cleaned the tables near the arcade machines as fast as she could.
After that, she moved next to the stage and began to clean up the loge. It was tiring.
After she had done that as well and was ready to go back to her family, Mangle came out of the Kids' cove with Springtrap.
They had gone there to do something which Storm Jr. didn't know anything about.
" Hi, guys. Going to sleep?", Storm Jr. smiled at them.
" Definitely. Toy bonnie is gonna tell us a story and we'll play board games. Do you wanna join us?", Mangle asked politely.
Storm Jr. couldn't say no. She was going to go to the Circle after that.
Storm wasn't going to get a heart attack if Storm Jr. was away for a little while.
They took her to their room where the Toys and Golden freddy were watching news.
Their eyes were wide and Toy bonnie seemed excited.
Springtrap glanced at the TV.
Storm Jr. on the other hand was astonished that the Toy animatronic had a television. The Toys seemed to get all sorts of luxuries.
" What's on TV?", Mangle asked them.
" The weather is gonna get harsh, dude", told Toy freddy.
Springtrap, Storm Jr. and Mangle sat down next to the others and checked the news out.
" What we see right here is a hurricane, like of which has not been seen in centuries", the woman on TV told them.
It, if something, looked like a monster. It could easily swallow Iceland and at least half of Europe. The digital map was going crazy.
It could have wiped the United states and Canada off the face of the earth.
" It's so big", Storm Jr. was shocked.
" That is terrifying", Springtrap's voice broke in fear.
Golden freddy hugged him.
" Don't worry, Springtrap. They already said it's going to miss us", he comforted Springtrap and kissed him.
Springtrap was relieved, his expression became calm.
" Thank goodness", Toy bonnie nodded to him.
Storm Jr. felt weird. The hurricane was not going to stop.
How could anything stop it? It was wind but it was capable of devouring the world.
It was death... She shook her head to clear it.
" What is wrong with me?", thought Storm Jr.
" If that thing was actually heading towards us, it would lead to the end of the world", Springtrap looked at the picture.
" This harsh phenomenon will cause high waves at the south coast of Florida and New york.
Authorities demand that people stay indoors if possible", the woman told the animatronics.
" I have an idea", Toy bonnie said happily.
" Maybe I could tell a story about this", she suggested.
Golden freddy didn't agree.
" I'd hate to ruin your evening but Springtrap is afraid of it. Look at him, Toy bonnie", Golden freddy told her.
Springtrap was terrified. Toy bonnie was still unable to understand why Springtrap was such a wuss.
He had been tortured by a maniac for years and he was still afraid of a tiny hurricane. But, even if he was a wuss, she didn't want to upset him.
She agreed not to tell a story about a hurricane.
Springtrap would have wanted to hear a nice, happy story about kittens and puppies.
Toy bonnie was not going to tell that either. It was no fun.
She told them an exciting story but not a scary one even though she would have wanted to.
They put the lights out and Toy bonnie grabbed a flashlight. She shined the light at her face and it looked scary.
Her story was meant to give at least some cold chills to the ones listening to it.
Toy bonnie knew what Springtrap liked and made up a cute scene as well.
Storm Jr. enjoyed the story and slowly all the thoughts about hurricanes and disasters faded away.
Above all, they had fun and after an hour it was time for Storm Jr. to go to bed.
She was sure that she wouldn't have a nightmare this time. Storm Jr. didn't want to admit it but she was really scared of going to sleep.
Crystal, for instance, was always willing to lie down between her parents and snuggle Vixey's soft side.
Storm Jr. had never been into sleeping. But after the first nightmare, she hadn't wanted to go to sleep anymore.
She could have stayed awake but it could have gotten very boring after a while.
Sleeping helped her pass time.
Storm Jr. had two choices. It was either the nightmares or boredom.
She chose the nightmares because even if they were horrible, she wanted to see more.
There was something in them. A meaning perhaps. A story or a warning.
Leslie was in most of them but still she felt as if they weren't just that.
Everyone presumed that the nightmares were consequences of her trauma.
Storm Jr. didn't want to argue with them but she couldn't help but feel that they were wrong.
She had gone through Leslie's death many times in her mind. Storm Jr. was afraid of the nightmares but not due to them being scary.
She was afraid because the nightmares were trying to tell her something. Of course Storm Jr. had no way of being sure about it.
She went through her nightmares as she was making her way to the Circle.
Storm Jr. couldn't remember every single one of them. She wasn't able to watch them again like a movie.
There was something about kids and their parents.
The parents kill their children by saving them!
Storm Jr. shook her head. That thought made no sense. How can you kill something by saving it?
That's absolutely ridiculous! Maybe she was remebering it wrong.
But Storm Jr. was sure that's how it went. Beware of Eclipse, the traitor of worlds!
That was another scary thing which she remembered.
Was Eclipse a traitor?
How could she even consider such a thing. Poor Eclipse whose mother had been brutally murdered right in front of him.
Eclipse who had fought his way back into the light.
Luna had called him a trooper.
Eclipse was a loyal warrior and a good friend. He could never betray his friends, not to even mention entire worlds.
There were no explanations for any of those sentences. The nightmares were spitting vague information at her.
That was the scariest part of the nights. That time was upon her once again.
Storm Jr. arrived at the Circle around 10 PM and lay down next to Willa.
Storm was on her other side this time. Willa had wanted to sleep next to Fang that night.
Storm Jr. went under the blanket and Storm tilted her head towards her.
" Good thing you came. I was about to get worried there for a second", Storm whispered into Storm Jr.'s ear.
" Toy bonnie wanted to tell me a story", Storm Jr. whispered to her mother.
Storm kissed her on the nose and nodded, smiling.
" Good night, mom", said Storm Jr.
" Good night, sweetheart. Love you", Storm replied.
Storm Jr. was in good hands. Storm's comforting arms might help her sleep.
Storm had come to her so many times when she had been stuck in the repairing room.
Storm's hands, which were wrapped around her, were a sign of safety. Storm Jr. was hopeful even if it might have been pointless.
Even before entering sleep mode, Storm Jr. was completely aware that the nightmares would get her.
No matter where she was or who she was sleeping with, the nightmares would always find her and sink into her traumatized mind.
( After four hours. Storm Jr. in her sleep)
There was nothing like a good deep sleep. Storm Jr. was in a place that seemed like heaven.
She was not dreaming. That was her own heaven.
A state, in which she was sleeping but not dreaming. It was absolute peace and tranquility.
Storm Jr.'s body was still being used by Willa as a stuffed animal.
Usually, that's where Storm was.
Willa had learned to seek warmth from her left side. Storm Jr. was very warm and moved about as much as a real stuffed animal.
The lack of movement was due to Storm Jr.'s mind being lost in the feather ocean.
Storm Jr. was not thinking about anything.
Then an idea popped into her mind. She heard something. Storm Jr. heard birds sing on the vast sky.
The peace was gone but it didn't matter. The birds were nice as well.
" Hello, pretty friends", Storm Jr. said, lying on the ground.
She was covered in hay which grew taller than corn. The stems had fallen on her.
Storm Jr. opened her eyes and got up.
A small, red bird landed on her hand and lay down. Storm Jr. giggled because the bird was poking her hand with its beak.
It tickled Storm Jr.
" Aren't you a cute one?", Storm Jr. petted it.
The bird left and Storm Jr. waved at it.
The beautiul crow soared though the sky. Storm Jr. frowned. She was pretty sure it had been a red bird.
A small one, not a big crow.
But it was in fact a crow, like one of Scarlett's crows.
Storm Jr. walked through the hay and the birds were flying around her curiously.
They had never seen an anthropomorphic wolf walking around on the field.
Storm Jr. had sharp teeth which she used to smile at the birds. The teeth should have freaked them out but they didn't.
" I'm a wolf. Do you know what a wolf is, little one?", Storm Jr. asked a bird that landed on her snout.
The birds followed her around the field and Storm Jr. played with them.
She would have wanted some company, perhaps Eclipse and Shadow.
Storm Jr.'s wish seemed to be heard by someone.
She peered at the horizon and saw the gravestones. There were animatronics on the stone platform.
She decided to go say hello.
Storm Jr. ran towards them with no fear in her eyes.
She was like a carefree fly, flying right into a web of some hungry spider.
She was happy to be there and her friends were waiting for her on the platform.
Storm Jr. saw them on their knees. They were staring at Leslie's grave.
She decided to slow down a bit. They didn't come to the graves often so that was a special moment for them.
There was Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Felix, Foxy, Crystal, Eclipse and Storm.
They hadn't noticed Storm Jr. just yet. She looked at the ground and her ears drooped as the sun was blocked by clouds.
She didn't want to be happy while the others were grieving.
Storm Jr. saw the hay get crushed beneath her feet. She frowned at the sight.
The hay was different. It wasn't nice and yellow like grass should have been. It was rather gray and Storm Jr. wouldn't have made bread out of that.
Had it always been like that?
Storm Jr. wasn't a fan of that.
First, the bird had become a grow and now this. Did she have something wrong with her eyes?
If that was true, her ears had something wrong with them as well. Storm Jr. couldn't hear birds anymore.
She could hear the soft sobbing of her friends. Storm Jr.'s feet hit the platform.
She was relieved that it hadn't changed.
Storm Jr. looked up at her friends.
" Hi, guys", greeted Storm Jr. joylessly.
She waited for them to answer. Bonnie and Chica glanced at her.
" At least a hello would be nice", Storm Jr. told them due to them not answering.
Bonnie looked away but Chica stood up.
" Why did you come here?", Chica asked her.
Storm Jr. found that weird and rude.
" I came here to grieve with you. It hurts less if you share your grieve with friends. I found that out in the basement", Storm Jr. told Chica.
Chica responded by shaking her head. Small tears were falling down her cheeks.
Chica was dirty and her eyes were not looking straight. She looked like a corpse more than anything.
" You should leave us. Go away, we don't need you here", Chica said silently.
Storm Jr. saw Chica turn around and kneel again. She had some moss on her back. It had rusted Chica's back and penetrated the skin.
Now Storm Jr. began to look at the others as well. They had moss on them too.
What had happened to them?
" I'm not leaving", said Storm Jr. with a determined voice.
" I won't leave you here", she added.
Chica and the others heard her and began to turn their heads. Storm Jr. saw the rotten side of Eclipse's face.
His teeth were missing and the nose was messed up. Bonnie's face was covered in dirt and blood.
Chica's left eye was missing and her face was just an endoskeleton head peeking out of the broken chicken animatronic head piece.
The front side of Chica's head was gone. She looked like Bonnie after Toy chica had ripped her face off.
Storm Jr. looked at her messed up friends. She looked around in fear and saw the empty field, full of rotten hay.
It was a desolate land where nothing grew. Only grows were flying around, eating all sorts of rotten things.
Storm Jr. would have wanted to scream but her mouth was paralysed by fear. The animatronics walked towards her.
" You must leave! We are dead! We are all dead! We belong here, you don't!", Chica's endoskeleton head shouted at her.
Storm Jr. fell to the ground and crawled backwards. The rotting hay stained her legs and tail.
The whole field had a stink of rotting corpses and blood all over it.
Storm Jr. tried to crawl further but she got stuck.
The grass hay itself around her legs. Storm Jr. tried to break free but it was pointless.
" We are all dead because of you. Because you didn't listen to us", a grim voice said behind the other animatronics.
Storm Jr. gasped in fear as a corpse climbed out of Leslie's grave. Leslie's arms had flesh around them no longer.
The right side of his face was covered in flesh but the rest was just a skeleton.
He crawled out of it like a spider.
" You murdered us so we'll slaughter you", said Luna who had appeared behind Eclipse.
" No! No! Let me go!", Storm Jr. pushed the scream out of her mouth.
The animatronics laughed at her and black goo burst out of their mouths.
" See. She doesn't listen. She just screams all night long", Chica told the others.
The corpse of Leslie started crawling towards Storm Jr. at high speed. Storm Jr. managed to break free at the same time.
She got up and began to run. That thing was fast and it was gaining.
" Help! Somebody help!", Storm Jr. begged on the empty field.
" Listen! Listen! Listen!", a voice was screaming in her head.
Storm Jr. recognized it to be Ornica.
" Listen to us!", Ornica told her.
" Listen?", Storm Jr. thought.
Everyone had been screaming that word at her face.
Storm Jr. remembered how she had been thinking about the nightmares and the warnings which they contained.
Storm Jr. realized that all of this was another nightmare.
" What do I have to listen to?", asked Storm Jr. out loud.
She glanced behind her and saw Leslie gaining. Storm Jr. heard something in her head.
" You..must..hear them..out", Ornica's moaning voice said in her head.
The voice was changing.
Storm Jr. had just heard it when Leslie tackled her to the ground.
" Let me go!", Storm Jr. screamed in fear.
Leslie yanked her head around and forced Storm Jr. to look into his eyes.
As all hope was gone, Storm Jr. heard the voice of her beloved mother.
" Shh, Storm Jr. It's just a nightmare. Calm down, my baby girl. Nightmares can't hurt you", Storm's comforting voice told her.
Storm had woken up and was trying to ease Storm Jr.'s pain.
" Nightmares can't hurt me", Storm Jr. repeated.
At that moment, Storm Jr. gasped.
" Mom. Don't end the nightmare. I know what I have to do", Storm Jr. spoke out loud, wishing that she was actually talking in real life as well.
Storm Jr. was not afraid anymore.
She looked deep into Leslie's burning eyes.
" What do you want?", she asked him.
" We want all of you dead", Leslie said and bit Storm Jr.
She kicked him and got up quickly. Storm Jr. had to focus on everything.
In her dreams, everything was a potential clue.
" Who are you?", Storm Jr. asked then.
" We are dead, like we said. We are dead and we hurt the living. We hurt you", Leslie laughed maniacally.
Storm Jr. hoped she would be able to remember all of that. Leslie jumped and grabbed her by the neck.
" I am listening to you! Tell me what you wanted me to know", Storm Jr. insisted.
The corpse started shaking.
" Fear is danger. Fear kills and turns you into one of us. You must..", Leslie's voice broke.
" What?", Storm Jr. felt that the dream was about to end.
" You must stay indoors! Otherwise, we'll all die immediately", Leslie screamed his last piece of advice and spat all the black goo right into Storm Jr.'s face.
She gasped for breath and rose from the bed.
" Storm Jr.? Are you okay?", Willa asked her.
Storm Jr. looked around and saw her family staring at her.
At the Pirate cove, Foxy, Vixey and Crystal had woken up as well.
The nightmare was over for now.
Storm Jr. was safely with her living friends and family again. This one had been way different than the rest.
Storm Jr. had not understood anything that Leslie had told her but this was a step forward.
For the first time, Storm Jr. could remember everything that happened in the nightmare.
Farewell: Whoa!
More information? Yep. Don't worry, guys.
I can assure you that not everything Leslie said was too important and everything that was will make sense in the future.
Goodbye, my beautiful readers and: THE ONLY WAY TO LIVE IS TO WRITE
