Greeting: Today is a special day. We have returned to Rachel and her crew over and over again.
Now, it's time to visit Freddy's for the first time in a long time.
Rachel will be there too though. Enjoy!
( Inside Freddy's. At the time of the car crash)
The pizzeria was actually just in front of the crash site. There was nothing but a hillock in between.
The Fazbears kept on holding their fort. The monsters had come like a wave in an ocean.
It had been a real tsunami.
Nadia's senses had started going haywire earlier and that was the reason.
The monsters had charged at the pizzeria but stopped suddenly. The animatronics, inside, were taking it easy, the monsters weren't coming in.
They didn't even try. That had been five hours earlier.
Marionette had put a guard next to the windows. At the time, it was Shadow's turn.
He would tell the others if anything happened. The basement animatronics were in the main room too, cleaning up the place.
Children were listening to Freddy's story which calmed them down.
Scarlett went to Shadow to talk with the lonely fox.
" Anything yet? Like anything?", she asked him.
Shadow was looking at the metal plates, covering the windows. He could feel eyes, staring at it from the other side.
" Nothing. They just showed up. This is making me feel uneasy, Scarlett. They aren't making any sounds", he was almost whispering.
" Jenny doesn't know what is happening. Marionette thinks this is not about us. It's something else", Scarlett told Shadow.
The two glanced at each other and took a good look. Shadow looked confused and Scarlett was alerted.
" Now what could that mean? Why would they surround our pizzeria?", Shadow asked her.
" I guess we will find out. Whatever it is, the monsters are hoping to catch it. Can you feel their veins?", Scarlett closed her eyes.
She could feel her friend close by. Jester was inside and delighted to be surrounded by his family.
He had told Scarlett some pretty horrible things during the past hours.
Yet, he seemed..scared.
" I can't stop feeling them", Shadow let out a sigh.
Scarlett suggested that they'd change the guard. She was ready to be the next one.
Shadow wanted to walk around a bit. It was exhausting to be there completely still.
The veins of the monsters were beating against his ears.
It was insane.
There were so many of them and they made no sound. They seemed afraid..like Jester.
Shadow looked around and saw many animatronics. Nadia and Fang were by the Circle of the hidden treasure.
Willa and Storm Jr. were somewhere. Probably taking care of their new friend, Thunder.
That was a peculiar little wolf. Shadow thought he may have been a bit crazy.
No wonder after what he went through and how Storm Jr. treated him.
That brown furball had no space to breathe. Shadow sat down and sighed in relief.
" Long day, huh?", Felix's voice asked him.
The fox sounded cheerful. Shadow looked up and saw Felix's upside down face.
He was looming over Shadow like a ghost.
" The last hours were like days. Those monsters are still outside", Shadow sounded frustrated.
Felix came to the front and looked at him.
" They aren't trying to get in so we are fine. Chica believes that we should only get scared if they try to get in", Felix had a piece of advice.
" I guess she does have a point there. These monsters just seem very insidious. It's like they are up to something.
No one is alone around here, right?", Shadow looked around briefly.
He just wanted to know that. The first people to die were always the ones, all by themselves.
" Chica isn't, at least. She and Bonnie went to the cold room to check on the corpses. It's creepy, I know, but let them do their thing", Felix answered him.
Shadow didn't care what Chica was doing, as long as she wasn't alone.
The two males started speaking about normal things pretty fast.
Thunder came into the main room with Storm Jr.
Fang greeted them and both greeted him. Storm Jr. was oddly honored to be with Thunder.
They stopped by the Circle and glanced at Nadia.
" Hi, you two. Everything is okay, I feel", Nadia greeted them.
" Rather good. They seem very energetic. Or at least one of them does", Fang winked at his daughter.
Storm Jr. smiled and winked back. Her eyelid stopped in the middle there, like she was breaking or something.
" Thunder has never felt better. Right?", Storm Jr. slapped him on the shoulder.
The brown wolf shrugged.
" I guess so. This place is so oddly familiar. I'm also feeling open", Thunder told Fang.
" That's good..I guess. At least it's better than when you woke up", Fang chuckled at him.
Thunder had gotten sick after he had woken up. Everything wasn't okay inside his mind.
Marionette had tried to do something about it and so far, he had managed to restore balance.
" Yea. Those monsters hurt me badly. They are so evil. I wonder why", Thunder looked up like he felt something.
Fang wasn't worried about that. For the amount of pain he had gone through, Thunder was a beast.
" Who knows. They are wicked and so are their masters. The beast witches are so horrible. They can all burn in flames.
Don't worry though. We can handle them. We have already figured it out. They can't get us, we are safe in here.
Beasts are rather stupid when you think about them", Fang comforted Thunder.
" Storm Jr.?", he stopped when his daughter was looking at him funny.
She had dug her claws into Thunder's shoulder.
They hadn't impaled the skin but Thunder could feel it. As soon as Fang looked at her, she became normal again.
No smile, no frown, nothing!
" What, dad? Are you okay?", Storm Jr. asked him like nothing had happened.
" You looked angry. Did I say something wrong?", Fang inquired.
" No. I just hate the monsters too. What they did to Thunder was horrible? I'm glad we came there", Storm Jr. explained to him and glanced at Thunder.
" I'm sorry that I was the only thing you found. Bonnie told me that you loved that boyfriend of yours. Bonnie told me he was very nice.
I'm sorry about him", Thunder apologized to Storm Jr.
" It's nothing", Storm Jr. patted him on the shoulder.
Fang noticed that Storm Jr. hadn't looked sad at all.
Usually, Leslie was a sad topic to discuss. Storm Jr. had completely lost it.
Fang wasn't complaining, he had kinda wanted that. Storm Jr. was happy again but it wasn't right.
He stood up slowly and looked at Thunder.
" Thunder, is it okay if I speak with my daughter privately for a minute?", he asked the brown wolf.
Thunder nodded to him. Storm Jr. raised her other eyebrow and stared at Fang.
" Storm Jr. Let's go behind the Circle. We need to talk", he told her.
Storm Jr. looked doubtful. Fang wondered if she'd decline. She was thinking about something.
Fang felt that she would have liked to say no.
" Okay. That's fine with me", Storm Jr. shrugged and followed him.
Thunder sat down and started talking with Nadia.
Fang led Storm Jr. behind the Circle to a hidden spot. He wanted to see if his daughter was okay.
Both Storm and Willa had found her to be a little odd.
" Okay, dad. Here we are. So what's up?", Storm Jr. crossed her arms.
Fang didn't know where to begin at first. He didn't want to seem like he doubted Storm Jr.'s sanity.
" Storm Jr. I can feel that something's wrong. You won't leave Thunder's side for one second", Fang started.
" But I just did. Is there something wrong with me wanting to make him feel welcome?", Storm Jr. asked, offended.
" No. Of course not. You are just so.. out of character. I know we have been here for long and it's boring.
You just stopped thinking of Leslie completely and that's creeping us out. Something is in your mind", Fang revealed.
He was more right than he thought.
" I guess you aren't as good at mimicking as you thought", a voice echoed in Storm Jr.'s head.
It came from the astral plane.
" I'm fine, dad. I still think of Leslie but Thunder is so lonely. He needs me more than Leslie does right now. I feel really sad for him.
He reminds me of when I was in the basement", Storm Jr. looked sad.
Fang nodded, he understood her.
" You sneaky little ghost. Don't use that against dad!", the astral wolf was angry.
It made the new Storm Jr. smile.
" So don't worry, dad. I'm more than fine", Storm Jr. showed him a grim smile.
Fang looked into her eyes and put his hands on her shoulders.
" But if something goes wrong, you'll tell me right", Fang asked her.
Storm Jr. patted him on the shoulder.
" Sure", she smiled and walked away.
Fang followed her out, he guessed that was it.
To his surprise, Storm Jr. didn't wrap her arm around Thunder. She just sat down next to him as he was talking to Nadia.
Fang came out of the other side of the Circle. He noticed that Bonnie and Chica had come to the main room.
Fang sat down between Nadia and Thunder.
" So, how did it go?", Nadia asked him.
Fang glanced at Storm Jr.
" It went fine, right?", Storm Jr.'s gaze was saying.
Fang looked at Nadia nervously.
" It went..rather fine. It was nothing really. Storm Jr. is fine despite how weirdly she has been acting lately", Fang stuttered.
" You worry too much, dad. It's all in your own head. I know you love me but I don't need your protection right now", Storm Jr. responded.
The real Storm Jr. was in the astral plane. It was painful to watch as the beast used her body to feed Fang lies.
The monsters had come because it was inside, Storm Jr. was sure about it.
That beast would open the doors if she didn't do anything. The beast had tried a couple times but the guard had always stopped it.
It had survived in those situations like Jenner, by talking. It would only be a matter of time before it succeeded in its task.
The others were getting more and more aware of the current owner of her body.
It was all thanks to Thunder and the beast's obsession over him.
The beast felt no love for Leslie and it couldn't mimic such emotions. Storm Jr. had no idea why it was so attached to Thunder though.
She had shrugged it off anyway. Storm Jr. only wished she could have done something.
She had no body to go to. All she could do, was to watch as the beast lied to her friends and family.
She had tried to tell Marionette but he hadn't seen her either. Storm Jr. wanted to tell someone about the beast.
Right then, it was just talking to Nadia like Storm Jr. would. The new Storm Jr. listened to Nadia carefully.
" Something is coming. I can't see it yet. I don't know if it's a monster or an ally", Nadia told the others.
She had had feelings in her body for a long time. Weird as it was, it was close to pleasure.
" The feeling is approaching. I feel it inside. Soon it will burst out and fill my body. It's like..umm", Nadia looked uncomfortable.
" It's like a sword that impales you. You feel it inside you and wonder when it will burst out of your chest", Fang read her thoughts.
Nadia nodded.
" That sounds rather horrible. Let's hope it's not some weird beast", Storm Jr. looked scared.
She pulled her legs against her chest and wrapped her arms around them.
(" The beast learns", the voice muttered in the astral plane.)
Fang agreed with her, Nadia's feeling was horrifying. Since she was blind, her telepathic abilities had enhanced.
She could feel many things that the others could not.
" Is it close by? Should we start defending the pizzeria?", Thunder peeked around Fang and looked at Nadia.
The blind wolf was breathing heavily and shaking her head.
" I don't know. It's very close. I can feel it. No, wait! Them! I feel them!", she exclaimed and moved her head around.
The others got alerted. Nadia gasped as the feeling hit her body.
" Children!", she muttered in shock.
She launched up from the edge of the stage.
" We must go outside! They are coming", Nadia shouted to every single animatronic in the room.
Everyone stopped and got ready. The tension, that had been in the air, was unleashed like dogs.
They had all been waiting for that moment. Nadia ran to Marionette who came out of his box.
" Children. They are coming now. We must get them inside", she was panicking.
Marionette grabbed her and told her to take it easy. Scarlett came to her sister and let Marionette walk to the front door.
Mr. Fazbear was already there with Freddy and Goldie.
(The astral Storm Jr. was there too but no one saw her obviously.)
" What is happening? The monsters are coming in, aren't they?", Freddy looked at Marionette and Goldie.
" Wait a second! I can feel them moving. They aren't coming in though", Golden freddy put his arm in the air.
Mr. Fazbear shouted to one of the employees.
" Hey, Clark! Open one of the shields! We need to see what's happening", he said.
A man, by the main stage, nodded to him and went to do that.
" Something is happening outside. We need to see what it is", Marionette put his hands onto his hips.
The shield, in front of them, opened up. Goldie was ready to fight any monsters that would try to come in.
That window was broken and the boards had come loose. It was the perfect moment for the monsters to charge in.
To everyone's surprise, there was nothing outside.
(The astral Storm Jr. floated outside and peered at something in the distance.)
" Marionette! Goldie!", Nadia ran to them.
Scarlett was right behind her. Nadia had broken loose of Scarlett's grip. She was so anxious.
" They won't make it without you! There's children!", she grabbed Marionette.
" I'm sorry. She really needs to say something", Scarlett panted, alerted.
" Nadia! Take a deep breath. What are you trying to say? Speak more clearly", Golden freddy tried to calm her down.
" Guys! Look!", Freddy shouted from outside.
He had gone there without anyone noticing.
Marionette, Goldie, Mr. Fazbear and Nadia went out carefully.
" Be careful. It could be dangerous", Scarlett warned them.
Her beast witch side was freaking out. It was unclear whether Jester was happy or excited.
Freddy was pointing at something. It had caught the monsters' attention. They had just abandoned their posts, by the pizzeria.
It was something serious if it caused the monsters to forget about the Fazbears. They hadn't probably even noticed that the window was open.
" What is that? It's so dark", Mr. Fazbear peered at it.
" It's a bus! The lights are on, inside. It's gonna drive into the monsters!", Freddy saw it.
The bus was staying still right then but it would go for it.
" There are kids inside that bus. I can feel their tension. It's so overwhelming", Nadia held her head.
Some other animatronics and people had come outside to see what was going on.
" Is everything alright, Freddy?", Bonnie asked him.
Freddy turned around.
" I'm alright, love. There's a bus in there. Nadia says there are kids inside", he pointed at it.
" Kids?", Bonnie almost shrieked and ran forward.
" Four animatronics are in there too. Or is that five? I can't see", Goldie was trying his best.
Mr. Fazbear turned around to look at an adult who had come.
" Try these, Mr. Fazbear", Kristian handed over a pair of binoculars.
" Thanks. These will help", Mr. Fazbear smiled at him.
Golden freddy almost ripped them off Mr. Fazbear's hands immediately.
With shaking hands, he took a good look.
" There's a man driving. He has somebody next to him. It looks like...Fritz?", Goldie told the rest.
" The purple guy? So he didn't die", Bonnie was nearly impressed.
" That man is crazy! He won't survive, driving into the horde", Goldie shook his head and put the binoculars down.
" Let me", Mr. Fazbear took them.
He looked at the driver but his eyesight wasn't as good.
" Wait a freaking minute! I know that guy. It looks like Nick from Rachel and Doug's", Mr. Fazbear was shocked.
" That's in another state. They have no fighting experience. There's just no way they could have made it all the way here", Freddy shook his head.
" I don't know. They have Fritz with them. I presume Milla is there too", Bonnie told him.
Mr. Fazbear chuckled.
" Plus, Nick is the most badass pizzeria owner that I have ever met", he added.
" You don't reckon that is actually him?", Freddy asked Mr. Fazbear.
" No. There's no way it is him", Mr. Fazbear responded and lowered the binoculars.
Suddenly, they saw two tiny lights on bus' both sides.
" What the heck is that?", Golden freddy thought out loud.
A high-pitched sound emanated all the way to their ears. The lights shot towards the monsters and left fiery trails.
It was like..fireworks?
That was what Nick had done. He had taken fireworks and attached explosives to them.
Those had been attached to the front of the bus. Ray had lit up the ones on the right side through the open door.
Nick, on the other hand, lit up the ones on the left through his own open window.
That came as a surprise to both the monsters and the Fazbears.
" What the fu..!", Freddy slipped out.
It was stopped by the sound of the fireworks exploding. The explosives added their own juices to the mix.
The fireworks had been turned into missiles.
The monsters, it hit, flew into the air and were blasted away like pieces of paper.
Mr. Fazbear shook his head in disbelief.
" Nope! That really is Nick", he let out a sigh.
The scene was so pretty. The fireworks had so many colors in them that looked amazing from a distance.
The monsters had never seen any of that coming. Nick pushed the throttle all the way down.
He threw a flaming bottle out the window. Fritz had found something from the jeep.
It was amazing that the Molotov's cocktails had survived. Or at least some of them.
The monsters had fallen into the plan of the ages.
" What are these people made of?", Marionette asked himself.
He felt fear and agony in the bus. It was Milla he was sensing.
Nick drove at the monsters and crushed them. He had attached the jeep's fender to the front of the bus.
He was plowing through them. The bus was coming towards the pizzeria.
" Where's Faith? We need her here right now!", Freddy shouted to Scarlett, by the broken window.
She nodded to him and left to find Eclipse and Faith.
" So this is what we have been waiting for? More children and animatronics. Why are the monsters so eager to stop them?", Bonnie thought out loud.
She thought about how creepily the monsters had forgotten the pizzeria when those had shown up.
" We can ask them. Right now, get your guitar Bonnie. We are going to fight!", Freddy looked at her.
Bonnie nodded to him with trust in her eyes. They were going to get those people and animatronics in.
No matter what the cost may be.
Farewell: Sadly, that was it for this chapter. Next time, the battle will begin.
See you all then and: THE ONLY WAY TO LIVE IS TO WRITE.
