Greeting: They have been in this building for three chapters already. Let's see if we can finish this.
We have to go to the past to see what the animatronics had been doing during the last chapter. Enjoy!
( The animatronics. Earlier. By the room, full of animatronic corpses)
Bonnie wished she hadn't seen that room in the first place.
The horrors of that room would be hunting her in her dreams.
The monsters had skinned the animatronics alive and left them in the room to rust. The pictures of that horrible place were stuck in her head.
Bonnie tried to shake them off by closing her eyes.
Some of the animatronics' eyes had been torn out of their sockets. There was no doubt that the animatronics had been alive while it had been done to them.
If the Fazbears had failed to protect themselves, that was were they would have ended up.
It was absolutely sickening to think about the monsters, satisfying their sadistic lust for pain.
Bonnie was still at the front of the group with Freddy. She was walking forward even though her eyes were closed.
They came to the intersection where the corridor split up.
Freddy's plan was to go to the right. That direction was the safe choice.
If anything happened, Freddy could say that he had chosen the right way instead of the wrong way.
In a situation as dangerous as that, joke-based choices were not the best choices.
Freddy knew that but he presumed the choice didn't matter at all.
Freddy and Bonnie came to the intersection and Crystal was right behind them with Shadow.
It was like Crystal was attached to Freddy.
She was as close as she could get to him.
Crystal could feel the darkness crawl underneath her fur. It was lurking between the hairs of her fur.
The hairs next to her ears were making a creepy sound. Crystal couldn't stop hearing the whistling, it was annoying and creepy.
It was worse than cold chills.
She could feel something approaching. It was floating.
Closer and closer. Its hands were all around Crystal, she wanted to go home.
Crystal wanted her mom and dad.
She wanted Foxy to pet her and take the whistling off her fur.
Freddy found Crystal's closeness annoying and awkward. He didn't want to say anything to Crystal though.
He could hear her scared breathing. If that made Crystal feel better, it was worth it.
Freddy couldn't deny that the situation was scary.
He came around the corner, heading to the right.
Freddy got around the corner and suddenly stopped in fear. He got a horrible feeling.
He saw tons of scary shadows up ahead. There was at least ten monsters in a group.
Freddy backed off right on top of Crystal.
She shrieked but Shadow grabbed her snout.
Crystal hadn't screamed as loudly as she would have screamed without Shadow.
Freddy glanced at her with a worried expression on his face.
" Bonnie", said Freddy as soon as he looked forward.
Bonnie's eyes had been shut so she hadn't seen Freddy back off. She walked past him and would be seen soon.
Freddy grabbed Bonnie from behind and pulled her back in.
He covered her mouth so she wouldn't scream in terror. Bonnie got scared and would have screamed if Freddy hadn't done it.
She calmed down after recognizing Freddy's hands.
Freddy let Bonnie down and put his hand in front of her.
" What?", asked Bonnie.
" I can see their shadows. Into the room. Quickly", Freddy had no time for a comprehensible answer.
The animatronics ran back into the corpse room as fast as they could.
Crystal's fur was being electrocuted. Her body was shaking in absolute horror.
Midway, her legs failed and she fell to the floor. Crystal wasn't even close to the room.
Freddy and Bonnie opened the door and Bonnie went in.
" Freddy. Crystal fell. Help us", said Golden freddy, behind Freddy.
Freddy noticed Crystal's distress and came to her, Goldie and Shadow.
Golden freddy and Shadow tried to make her stand up.
" What happened to her?", asked Freddy, knowing they had to hurry.
The monster were coming. If they came by at that moment, they would definitely see Crystal and she would die.
The room was safe, they had to get Crystal inside.
Goldie could hear the monsters. Their voices were coming closer.
" Was that a bunny? Did some animatronic make it out? Let's go see", said the leader.
They were coming. Goldie grabbed Crystal by the feet and Freddy grabbed her upper body.
They rushed to the room as fast as possible. They had to not make noise.
The room would be useless if the monsters knew they were actually there.
Bonnie was beckoning them to hurry.
She was there to hold the door open.
The bears rushed into the room with the shocked fox. Shadow came in right after.
Goldie and Bonnie closed the door after them.
Bonnie was just able to see the shadows of the monsters before the door closed.
That had been a very close call. The monsters were outside the room.
" You were seeing things. Let's go. It was probably nothing", the other monsters said to their leader.
Bonnie was panting in relief.
" I prefer fighting. Trying to stay out of sight is scary", said Bonnie.
" It's better than letting the monsters know we are here. Unless you prefer the monster army that's gonna come after us", said Freddy.
Bonnie understood his point. Perhaps hiding was the best option in that situation.
They both looked at Crystal.
" Shh. Relax. They are gone", Goldie told Crystal.
She had just fallen to the floor for no reason.
" Is she okay?", asked Bonnie.
" She was too scared. Fear paralysed her", explained Golden freddy.
" She could feel someone touching her. She got terrified", explained Shadow.
Goldie shook his head.
" The darkness did that. It's messing with us. It almost succeeded in getting us killed", sighed Golden freddy.
He helped Crystal move again.
" Thank you", thanked Crystal.
She was still hearing the whistling in her ears. Crystal would have to get it under control.
" Are you sure you can continue?", asked Shadow when she tried to get up.
" I can still feel it. It's somewhere here. It's like cold chills. But I can continue despite that", answered Crystal.
" What can you feel?", asked Bonnie.
" I don't know. It's like... Uh. I don't know", Crystal tried to explain.
One animatronic shook in the room. The Fazbears glanced at it but then it stopped shaking.
They looked at Crystal again.
" It was like that", said Crystal.
" Like what?", asked Golden freddy.
" Like that. It was like shaking. My legs felt as if they had been shaking on their own. The feeling is like cold chills, it makes my skin crawl.
It's like something is in my fur", explained Crystal.
" Your plastic skin has just melted a bit? Fear makes your body heat up and softens the plastic since it melts in high temperatures", said Goldie.
Crystal nodded even though she wasn't sure if Goldie was right.
It seemed to be something way more mystical than that.
" But it doesn't matter. I can walk. Let's go before more monsters come", Crystal said to the others.
Shadow stopped her.
" Don't hurry. Come up slowly", he told her.
Crystal did as he said and got up safely without any problems whatsoever.
Freddy peeked out of the room to see if it was safe to go out.
" Let's go. There's nothing here", Freddy beckoned them to follow him.
The animatronics left the creepy room and Bonnie could sigh in relief. That place had been so unnatural.
She hoped she wouldn't have to go there a third time.
They walked to the intersection and glanced both ways like when crossing a street.
No shadows, no creepy things, nothing.
The animatronics took the right just like they had intended. Their journey could continue.
Freddy tried to remember all the doors and which of them seemed to be unlocked. If anything came, they would go to safety immediately.
Freddy led them downstairs at one point.
They weren't sure which floor they were on anymore. While walking, they tried to listen for sounds of kids.
As they were walking, Freddy realized their stupidity.
" I don't think this is working. The kids haven't survived this long by being loud and obvious. We won't find them this way", he told the others.
" You're right, Freddy. Damn. How could we find them?", grinned Bonnie.
" Can you feel anything, Bonnie?", asked Freddy.
" The darkness blinds me just like it blinded Nadia", answered Bonnie.
" Same thing here, I'm afraid", said Golden freddy.
Shadow nodded as well. Freddy had to think for a moment.
" How about all of you together? Could you do it then?", he asked them.
Bonnie, Shadow and Goldie looked thoughtful. At least Bonnie had a bad feeling about it.
" It might give away our presence. These are beast witches we are going against", she pointed out.
" She is right but I doubt we have a choice. That is, of course, if we wish to get back by the end of the decade", said Golden freddy.
Right then, they heard a weird sound of something. It made Crystal shiver.
She had felt it around them the whole time, they had been on that floor.
There was something roaming the corridors, something sinister, something wicked, something deadly.
" We should go to a room. We are too exposed here", suggested Crystal.
" Really? You are not scared of that sound, are you? It's probably just the wind. We do have to run anyway after we've found the kids.
Let's stay here", Goldie looked at her.
Crystal's gaze had ice in it. She fixed her freezing gaze on his eyes.
" First. It's not the wind. Second. Yes, I am afraid of that sound", Crystal told him.
Her voice was as terrified and cold as her gaze. Golden freddy was shocked by them.
" Okay. If you want that. Let's go to a room", replied Goldie.
Freddy led them to the nearest room. Crystal was safely between Shadow and Bonnie.
She glanced at the end of the corridor before going into the room.
She saw it.
She saw a pot shake on its own. She could almost hear a grim voice in her head.
" You can't hide, my dear. Sooner or later, I'll find you and then I'll pull you into myself. You'll have so many friends in there.
You'll look so much more beautiful without your shell", giggled a grim voice.
Crystal could feel it coming. She rushed into the room with the others.
It was the principal's office.
In there, the three psychics got ready to find the kids as soon as possible and then run away.
Crystal glanced at the door.
" It will come as soon as it senses them. We have to run once the kids have been found", thought Crystal.
The thing was close by and it was fast. Crystal wished they'd hurry.
The three animatronics held hands as Freddy and Crystal were watching. They concentrated on the kids.
They connected with each other and the timer started to tick.
The monsters would find them soon.
Their minds went through corridors and rooms but there were no kids.
" Come on", thought Crystal.
The darkness was coming, it was coming for them.
Mr. Fazbear had been right about the thing. It was fast once it knew where the prey was.
" There you are. Your souls will satisfy my hunger for real", the thing said in Crystal's mind.
" Hurry, guys. We need to run", Crystal was hopping in distress.
She was so scared.
" No. No. No. I can't find them. There!", said Bonnie.
" I see them. They are right there. The auditorium", replied Golden freddy.
The kids had been found!
They would have wanted to cheer and hug one another.
" Let's go!", Crystal kicked the door open.
She could hear the thing and tons of other creatures coming their way. They were in a bees' nest and the bees knew their location.
The animatronics let their panic and fear take over their bodies. There was no time to lose.
They rushed out of the room and heard the monsters.
" There", Crystal pointed at the end of the corridor.
The lights were turning off and everything was shaking.
" What the hell is that?", asked Bonnie.
" I don't know. Run for your lives", answered Freddy.
Crystal froze in place and would have faced her death if Shadow hadn't grabbed her hand.
The animatronics took off and ran away from the thing.
A monster tried to stop them but Shadow hit it and it fell out of a window.
Freddy realized that the thing was behind them. He had to think quickly.
" We need to distract it. We can't bring this to the children. Bonnie. Go to the auditorium and get the kids.
We'll give this poltergeist thing something to chase", Freddy told Bonnie.
That was their plan.
It was the best they could come up with at the moment. Everything could go wrong but it was good enough considering the situation.
Bonnie left by herself and the others ran some other way.
Bonnie glanced behind herself to see if the thing was after her.
She was surprised. Bonnie saw the lights turn off but then they turned on again.
The thing had just gone by without even glancing at her direction.
Bonnie had been sure it would have followed her. She had no time to think about what the thing had been thinking, she had to run.
The others could run away but they would run out of breath eventually.
Bonnie tried to recall the path to the auditorium. There were signs that helped her.
Without them, she would have been lost, the building was a maze of corridors.
She could hear the sounds of monsters, coming her way.
Bonnie had a goal and it gave her strength. She would just have to make it to the auditorium in time.
She did nothing that would have interested the thing.
She would have informed Mr. Fazbear about her arrival but mind talk would have attracted the thing as well.
She could hear faint voices in her head.
Goldie was using his telepathy to keep the thing interested in them. They were on the other side of the building.
Goldie's trick and Freddy's plan seemed to work.
Bonnie was no longer being chased, she was at the auditorium and monsters were nowhere to be found.
She was happy about it for a second or two. Bonnie stopped as she heard voices coming from up ahead.
They were monsters without a doubt. She peeked around the corner and saw an angry monster holding another monster in the air.
" The strong one is a beast witch", guessed Bonnie.
The monsters spoke for a while and then it stopped.
Bonnie remained hidden and wished they'd go away as they were right outside the auditorium.
" Follow me", said the beast witch.
Bonnie heard the monsters leave and then went to the door.
She heard voices speak inside the room.
She grabbed the handle and turned it slowly. She didn't want to scare the kids by opening the door fast.
She expected them to hide and she was right.
As the door opened, Bonnie saw that the room was empty. She stepped inside and looked around her.
" Bonnie?", a familiar voice asked her.
It was Mr. Fazbear!
He crawled out of his hiding place and stood up.
" It's okay, Mr. Fazbear. I'm here", smiled Bonnie.
Suddenly, heads of children started peeking from under chairs and tables. They had been so quiet the whole time.
Bonnie smiled at them and they came out of hiding.
" I knew you would come", said Mr. Fazbear and hugged Bonnie tightly.
He looked awful in Bonnie's eyes. She hugged him back.
" Of course I am here. We are all here. The others are giving the creatures something to do", explained Bonnie.
Mr. Fazbear looked into her eyes.
" What are these things?", he asked her.
Bonnie glanced at the door.
" I'll explain on the way home. Right now, we must hurry", she told him and grabbed his hand.
Mr. Fazbear beckoned the children to follow. They formed a group and left the auditorium.
" You know, there's a creepy thing roaming these halls. It turns lights off as it goes by. We don't know what it looks like", informed Mr. Fazbear.
" We saw it. We found you by using our telepathy. It did not like that one bit", answered Bonnie.
" Guys! I've got the kids and our boss. They're fine! They are fine!", Bonnie told the others in her mind.
The thing sensed her and came her way, which was fine though.
" Meet us at the stairs, Bonnie", Goldie told her.
He also told Eclipse to get ready. Bonnie ran to the stairs with the kids.
The thing found them quite quickly and they had to change direction.
The two groups met anyway. It was a convenient accident.
Freddy almost hit Bonnie as he came around a corner. The thing was right behind them.
Freddy's group joined the fleeing Bonnie's group.
" What now?", asked Bonnie.
Freddy thought about different options. They had to split up again.
The thing would get them before they could mount Faith. Freddy had not taken the thing of darkness into consideration when making his overall plan.
It had come out of nowhere and ruined their escape plan.
They could not fight it and mounting Faith would take some time.
Someone would have to distract the thing while Freddy took the kids to Faith.
Bonnie would do it surely.
There was another problem though. The thing would not follow her if she was alone.
Freddy looked at the kids. It was risky and stupid to use some kids as a bait but children would attract the thing well.
He had to do it even if it was irresponsible.
" Take five kids with you and run the other way. Once we are on Faith, we'll come for you", Freddy told her.
" What? You want to use those kids and me as a bait? That's ridiculous", exclaimed Bonnie.
" Trust me, Bonnie. Please! We have to act fast. There's so many of us. That thing is gaining! I need you to distract it. Please, my love", pleaded Freddy.
Bonnie glanced behind herself and saw the thing gaining. It was close.
" Okay. I'll do it", nodded Bonnie.
She turned towards the kids.
Bonnie rushed at them with her arms open and grabbed five of them.
She took the right with the kids on her arms and then let them down on the fly.
They kept on running the same way as her. Even Bonnie herself didn't understand what had happened.
Her body had done that on its own.
" What are you doing? Our friends are going that way", asked a little girl.
" Follow me, little one. We need to run. They'll come back for us", answered Bonnie.
" I can't run", complained the girl.
" You'll survive, I know it. You can run, sweetie! Once we get to safety, you'll be a hero. We are saving the lives of us all", explained Bonnie.
" Okay. I'll follow you", said the girl.
She kept on running despite the pain in her legs. The children were small, Bonnie hadn't decided who to pick.
They wouldn't be able to run for long.
The positive side was that Freddy's plan had worked, the thing was after them.
It was Bonnie's turn to run around aimlessly. She was scared and so were the kids.
That was actually the reason that thing was after them. Freddy's group had a goal and they weren't as scared since the thing was not chasing them.
The thing was attracted by fear above all.
" Here. Follow us!", Bonnie said to the thing in her mind.
It was like throwing gas into an open flame. The thing sped up and was gaining.
" Hurry, Freddy. Please", thought Bonnie.
Freddy's group was on the roof, mounting Faith. The animatronics were protecting the children from the monsters as they climbed on.
Bonnie had to buy time and run.
Bonnie gasped in fear as the girl, after her, fell in exhaustion.
The other kids ran past her in panic. The thing was coming towards the girl and she was defenceless.
Bonnie turned around quickly without even thinking about it. She had promised the girl they would survive.
Bonnie was not going to leave that innocent girl. It was her fault that the kids were at risk.
She would get them all to safety or die alongside them.
She ran towards the girl and the thing came from the other direction.
It was going to be close.
Bonnie's vision was in slow motion. The girl was scared and she was reaching out to Bonnie.
There were arms coming out of the darkness. There were a dozen hands reaching out after the girl.
It was disgusting.
There were more arms coming out of the main arms as well. The creature in the darkness was an abomination with a taste for children's flesh.
Bonnie was worried if she'd make it in time. They were both very close to the girl.
There was no way of knowing which would get to her first. Bonnie had only one thing in mind at that exact moment.
" Am I going to fail this innocent girl? Will I get more innocent blood on my hands?", thought Bonnie.
Farewell: Let's just leave it there. This chapter would get too long otherwise. This is also a sweet cliffhanger
I'm very strict when it comes to the length of chapters.
I guess I'll see you later, guys. You guys are awesome!
Hopefully you enjoyed this chapter!
THE ONLY WAY TO LIVE IS TO WRITE.
