Greeting: Hello, all you pretty girls and handsome guys. It's me!
Another day, another chapter. The Apocalypse continues as our friends are going to rescue their boss.
Enjoy!
( Springtrap and Catty. Playing with kids in the main hall)
There was a bunny and a cat, both adorable and playful. They tried to make the children forget what they had seen.
The kids weren't as eager to play as before.
It made Springtrap sad since he wanted the kids to be joyful and happy. They shouldn't have seen all that violence, especially so close up.
Some kids had blood on their shirts or pants, which made them look scary to some others.
Catty had done everything she could to clean the blood but it had been impossible.
Splatters had faded a tiny bit but were still visible enough to be scary.
Julisa was trying to get the blood off her, her shirt looked nasty.
" It's no use, Julisa. It is stuck on your shirt for now", Springtrap told her.
" But I want it off. I don't like blood. I want it off", insisted Julisa.
Springtrap picked her up and sat down with her on his lap.
" We can change your shirt later. Right now, I would like you to bite the bullet and let it be", pleaded Springtrap.
They didn't have an infinite amount of clothes in the pizzeria and there was no washing powder either.
Springtrap and Catty knew blood was not something kids were suppose to see tons of. They had to bite the bullet too.
Even Julisa was afraid of the blood.
It reminded her and the others of Springtrap and the exploding hand. He knew it.
The children didn't want to sit on his lap nor hug him as much as before.
Right then, Springtrap prayed the stars to bless the kids with their light. The children were starting to get dark.
No one should be afraid of Springtrap. He wanted to be loved and love them back.
Seeing the children, all afraid, was an unfamiliar sight to him.
Catty didn't seem to mind but she wasn't as devoted to children as Springtrap.
Catty and some kids were playing with a toy car. Springtrap kept on playing without any toys.
" Do what Goldie said. Kids may be afraid now but that's normal. They just saw their friends kill people. They will get over it soon.
Don't worry, Springtrap. They are fine", Springtrap assured himself.
He wrapped his arms around Julisa and patted her back gently.
He wanted to show the other children that nothing had changed. He may have done something mysterious and gory but it hadn't changed him.
Springtrap was still his old self. The kids had nothing to be afraid of.
The animatronics were going nowhere. They were all there to protect the kids and ensure their safety.
Right then, fate showed that Springtrap was wrong about that.
Golden freddy walked by Springtrap and he had a sword in his hand.
" Goldie? Where are you going?", asked Springtrap.
He knew that Golden freddy was leaving the pizzeria.
The yellow bear was armed, which meant he was going outside.
Golden freddy stopped to glance at him. He had a calming expression on his face.
" You don't need to worry about this, spring buddy. I, on the other hand, have a job to do.
We got a tiny task which we need to accomplish as soon as possible", answered Golden freddy.
Springtrap glanced at Bonnie who came to Golden freddy. She was armed as well.
" Are you sure you won't be needing a sharper sword? That one looks like it's gonna break", Bonnie told Goldie.
" Nope. This is just fine for me", Golden freddy patted his own hip where the sword was.
" Are you going to a fight again? Come on, guys!", Catty noticed them.
She was worried about the kids who seemed to be afraid of those two.
It was quite a sight, the frightened kids staring at Bonnie.
" We have to do this. Mr. Fazbear is out there and we need to rescue him", Bonnie explained to Catty.
" Mr. Fazbear? He is still at the elementary school? Oh, wait! He never came back", Catty realized it.
" We forgot him. After this, we owe him one big apology", grinned Bonnie.
" He won't remember a thing. He will be so happy to get back here", Golden freddy said to her.
" What about the kids there? Are you going to..kill them?", some boy asked them.
Bonnie bent forward.
" If there are monsters in there, we have to protect ourselves. But I bet there are some normal kids in there as well. If we see them, we will recue them too.
Don't worry about it. We'll get them to safety. Do not worry one little bit", Bonnie assured him.
The boy had doubts but he nodded anyway.
Bonnie extended her arm forward to pet the boy's head. He crawled backwards in fear and Bonnie's arm stopped.
Catty wrapped her arms around that boy.
" Catty. I won't hurt him. You know me. I just wanted to comfort him", said Bonnie.
" They are afraid of you. Please, stay away, Bonnie", Catty told her.
Bonnie pulled her hand back reluctantly.
" Okay. I understand. I won't pet nor hug you if you don't want to. I won't force anyone to touch me if they are scared.
I just thought it might help", Bonnie remained calm.
The boy came out of Catty's protective embrace.
Bonnie felt some pain in her heart to see the kid, afraid of her. It was nothing serious though.
" How many will come with you to rescue him?", asked Springtrap.
" Me and Golden freddy. Freddy, Crystal and Shadow. We'll take Faith and Eclipse will be her rider", listed Bonnie.
Six was a pretty good amount of fighters. That was if Faith counted as one.
Crystal and Shadow came to them and were armed.
Shadow's katanas were shiny and in a good condition. Crystal had a rather good sword as well.
" I think we won't be there for long. We'll go in and come out with our boss and children. It will be a quick entry and a quick exit", Golden freddy told Springtrap.
" Be careful out there nevertheless. You never know what might be out there in the dangerous world", Springtrap told him.
" We will. We won't take any more risks than is needed", assured Golden freddy.
" I hope you won't. I don't want to lose you", Springtrap was worried.
" No one does, Springtrap. No one does", sighed Bonnie.
Golden freddy, Bonnie, Crystal and Shadow were ready and waiting for Freddy.
Julisa got off Springtrap and went to Bonnie.
" Bonnie", she got the bunny's attention.
" What, Julisa?", she asked the girl.
" Take my blessing with you. Maybe it will keep the dark forces out or something. At least, granny said it will help when surrounded by evil", Julisa extended her arm.
A tiny light appeared on her palm. Bonnie touched the mysterious orb and it was sucked into her hand.
" Thank you, Julisa. It's good you try to help", smiled Bonnie.
" Too bad I can't make the monsters go away", Julisa seemed sad.
" It's okay. This helps enough", said Bonnie.
She had no idea of what the light was going to do but she would find out soon.
Bonnie smiled at Julisa and hoped to get the same kind of response. She hoped to see Julisa smile back at her.
Julisa wouldn't be afraid of her or stay sad if Bonnie smiled at her. Bonnie was waiting for it but Julisa didn't smile.
She seemed to try but it was a frail smile.
" Cheer up, sweetie. We'll get through this together", Bonnie assured her.
" I'm thinking about granny. She isn't here and she hasn't called me. She might be dead", Julisa said worriedly.
Bonnie nodded to her. Granny was the closest thing Julisa had to a mother. Of course Julisa was sad.
" Let's have hope. No signal seems to be able to move around here. It might be just because of that", Bonnie told her.
Julisa shrugged joylessly.
" Illuminate this place with your inner light, Julisa. Be the happy girl that I know you are", pleaded Bonnie.
" It's too dark. My light is frail and weak. I'm a child and can't do as much as my granny. I want to cheer people up but it's impossible in here", Julisa looked around.
Bonnie saw what she meant.
The children were playing quite joylessly and it affected Springtrap and Catty as well.
" I didn't mean your powers, Julisa. Brighten up everybody's day. You can do it by just being nice", Bonnie explained to her.
Julisa was unsure.
She glanced at the other kids and sighed a tiny bit.
" I'll try, Bonnie", she promised the bunny.
" Nice. Take good care of them", Bonnie kissed Julisa on the cheek.
Julisa went back to Springtrap and her friends. Bonnie was left to look at her.
Julisa was taking so much responsibility for a young girl.
Bonnie remembered the first time Julisa had walked through the main doors.
As a baby, Julisa had only gone to Rachel and Doug's pizzeria which was next door, in another state though.
At Freddy's, Julisa had been scared of Foxy at first but Marionette had become friends with her.
With Marionette's help, Julisa had made new friends and hugged Foxy at the end of her visit.
Bonnie's thoughts came back to present day. Julisa had grown up since and she wasn't even close to what she had once been.
That scared girl had become a responsible witch.
" Only God knows what Julisa might become after a few years", thought Bonnie.
Then she had to forget Julisa for a while.
A big, brown bear came out of the backstage and walked to her. Freddy had his chest armor on and a sword on his waist.
Freddy glanced at his golden buddy and seemed shocked.
" Are you sure, Goldie, that this sword of yours is...?", started Freddy.
" Sharp enough?", guessed Golden freddy.
" It is. Trust me", he answered Freddy.
" Okay", shrugged Freddy.
He walked to Bonnie and they kissed each other.
" Are you ready to save our boss, honey? The world is cruel and needs heroes. That's us", asked Freddy.
Bonnie giggled, Freddy made the situation seem like a hero movie.
" I'm ready for anything. This was my plan, I can't complain", answered Bonnie.
" That is kinda true. But I'm happy you came up with this. Mr. Fazbear needs to be saved.
What kind of animatronics would we be if we didn't rescue our boss?", Freddy smiled at her.
He was so brave in Bonnie's eyes. Freddy was really charming and handsome.
Though, he was acting weird. Bonnie couldn't help but wonder why Freddy was so eager to leave.
" Why do you seem like you want to leave? It's gonna be dangerous", Bonnie told him.
" I can't breathe in here, Bon. I need to feel free again. The true darkness is the fact that I'm stuck in here. I need some fresh air", Freddy revealed the truth.
" I understand. It is claustrophobic in here", nodded Bonnie.
" It's due to the darkness, lovebirds. We are being crushed by the blackness", Golden freddy told them.
Bonnie presumed Goldie was right. The building seemed like it could get crushed anytime soon.
Not for real but metaphorically speaking.
Bonnie thought about the kids again. Maybe fresh air could ease their minds.
The adults would never allow them to get on Faith nor go outside. Bonnie's thought was ridiculous but thinking hurt no one.
Perhaps it might have worked. Bonnie could suggest it later.
They had all the time in the world to discuss different ideas.
" Everybody ready? Shadow? Crystal?", Freddy made sure they were ready.
" As ready as the darkness outside", Shadow nodded to Freddy.
" Let's save our owner. Everything will be so much easier when he's back", Crystal told Freddy.
Bonnie and Golden freddy had been born ready.
" Where's Faith and Eclipse? I'm not walking to the elementary school", asked Freddy, looking around for them.
Bonnie had met Eclipse before coming to the main hall.
" They might be on the roof. At least, Eclipse told me they would be there", Bonnie explained to the others.
" The roof? Sounds rather dangerous", frowned Freddy.
" Faith won't be as easy to notice if she's on the roof", Bonnie said what Eclipse had told her.
" Okay. Let's go to the roof then", shrugged Freddy.
" And hope the beast witches haven't eaten them both already", he added in his thoughts.
" I certainly hope so. We would have to walk for days to get to Mr. Fazbear", he heard Bonnie in his mind.
Freddy ignored that. He didn't want to think about Faith and Eclipse dying.
They would get killed very fast if Faith or Eclipse were taken out.
Freddy and the others went to the security office and past the right door. There was a way out on the ceiling.
It was a hard, steel trapdoor. It was a fast way of getting onto and out of the roof.
Crystal was the first one to go. After going through the trapdoor, she sighed. Eclipse greeted her with a joyless voice.
" Hi, Crystal. Are you guys ready now?", he asked her.
" As ready as we can be. Physically at least", answered Crystal.
She helped the others get to the roof. Freddy had some trouble with getting through since the hole was small.
Bonnie had to teleport him up to the roof. Shadow had no trouble getting through, he was small like Crystal.
When Freddy was on the roof, he glanced at the hole and then at Faith.
She was in her dragon form already and she had extended her wings.
" Wait a minute? How on earth did Faith end up here? Even in her kitsune form, she is huge. You didn't teleport her up here, did you Eclipse?", asked Freddy.
Eclipse would have wanted to pretend that he hadn't heard the question. Freddy was not going to like the answer.
" We opened the front door and went outside. Faith changed and flew up here. It was dangerous but I didn't care", answered Eclipse.
Freddy rubbed his own chin and frowned at Eclipse.
" I'll take that as the truth. So we can be grateful for you not getting attacked. I bet any monster that might have been nearby, saw you two.
It's like waving your hand at them.
Hello! I'm Eclipse! Come eat us since we are all on our own", Freddy tried to mimic his voice.
Eclipse looked at him. His tone changed, Eclipse seemed angry.
" No one attacked us, right? We did no harm. So shut the hell up, Freddy. Nothing bad happened", said Eclipse.
Everybody thought he sounded like a Legend.
Eclipse had the same careless, arrogant tone as Legends or Elders.
" Okay. No harm done. I got it", Freddy put his arms up.
First, Marionette and Scarlett had been cranky and now Eclipse was too.
Freddy decided to please Eclipse and shut up.
He went to his girlfriend and whisperingly asked her if she was sure about coming.
" I'm coming, Freddy. Mr. Fazbear is my boss too. I love him as much as you do.
Plus, I can't stay here and think about all those scared kids in there", answered Bonnie.
She thought Freddy was overreacting. The gory battle had made him afraid as well.
Freddy might have not noticed it himself but he was. Bonnie could feel it inside him.
There was no guarantee of safety on that trip, everybody knew that.
Anything could happen out there in the dark world.
The animatronics were getting mentally ready for going and doing final checks.
Bonnie had already checked everything out so she had nothing to do. Bonnie sat down next to Faith's left front paw.
She looked at the sky which hadn't cleared at all. The clouds were moving in the wind that wasn't stopping.
The sky did not make them hopeful, it wasn't even close to clearing.
The wind was cold and it brought weird scents from the city. Bonnie smelled blood and rotting things, possibly corpses.
Bonnie's ears perked up as a tiny howl was brought to her by the wind.
There was some animal out there, sensing the upcoming end of everything.
A sudden burst of wind caught Faith by the wings and she almost took off on her own.
Golden freddy, Freddy and Shadow helped her stay on the ground.
" That was a close one", sighed Goldie.
Bonnie agreed with him completely. The wind reminded her of the hurricane which was coming at them most likely.
She didn't know when it would hit but they would have to get ready for that too. Bonnie hoped the hurricane would leave them be and change direction soon.
There was no news to give them information about the hurricane's moves.
It was worrying to know it might have been coming.
On the other hand, there was a lot to worry in that world, they were in.
There were small problems like not knowing when to put the children to sleep. It must have been night by then.
The kids would be sleeping when they got back, Bonnie had seen many kids yawn a minute before.
That was the smallest of all problems. Then they had the big problems such as not knowing if the monsters would attack while they were gone.
Bonnie imagined coming back and noticing the corpses of their dead friends.
Crystal would be crying beside Foxy and Vixey's corpses. They would have to leave the pizzeria and go find another safe place.
If only that had been the biggest problem. It was a medium sized problem.
Even that problem made Bonnie shiver.
The bigger ones..., Bonnie didn't have the guts to think about them.
Bonnie was staring into the abyss of the horizon. She was able to see a few skyscrapers in there.
There were no lights on any of those buildings. It was unlikely that there were any survivors left there.
Bonnie glanced at the building, beneath her feet.
Luckily, Freddy Fazbear's was still lit, the power had not been cut off yet.
Even if that happened, they would be able to use candles and flashlights.
Even though the power hadn't been cut off, they were saving some energy beforehand.
Michelle and Mike had turned the outside lights off to make the place stand out less.
Everyone should be fine even without Faith or the other five animatronics.
Bonnie wasn't going to think about it further. She left it there, everybody would be fine.
She helped her friends to do some final checks and then everything was complete.
Eclipse climbed to the rider seat and Shadow sat down next to him. The others went as close to the center of Faith's back as possible.
The wind was not going to make the trip easier.
" Are you sure we can fly in this wind?", Faith asked Eclipse.
" I bet you can manage. Always fly a little bit to the left. That way we'll stay on course", answered Eclipse.
" Okay. Hold on everybody! This could be a bumpy ride!", shouted Faith to the animatronics on her back.
The wind felt as if it might try to grab her by the wings again. The air was not their friend right then.
Faith didn't trust herself with the flying.
She had been fighting Oni ryu and flying in harsh places but the wind was unpredictable.
It could throw itself at Faith or change direction within a second.
" Luna. If you are out there, pray for me", thought Faith.
She extended her wings and raised them up.
The wind picked her up and started taking her towards Leslie's old house.
Faith resisted it and flapped her wings to get towards the city. It was going to be a long, exhausting journey.
The wind changed direction and was taking her towards the Legends' factory.
" No, wind! We are not going to the factory. There is nothing for us there. Now! Take! Us! To! Mr. Fazbear!", Faith told the wind and fought with everything she had.
Farewell: Let's hope they get there safely. Now, it is time for me to end this chapter here.
All three pages have been filled once again. ( You can't see the pages since fanfiction doesn't show them.)
This chapter was nothing extremely special or revelatory but I hope you liked it.
See you, everybody. THE ONLY WAY TO LIVE IS TO WRITE.
