Jack pulls the chair aside from the hiding place. The group is still there chatting away when they see Jack walk in. "Find anything?" asks Aidan in a curious manner. "No" says Jack, his voice shakes as he speaks, still scarred from the experience that just went down a couple minutes ago. "Jack, you okay? You seem a little...Shaken" asks Ethan. "Yea, I just had a… run in with Springtrap." lies Jack, not wanting to tell his friends about Sam. "You should have been more careful." says Brendan, "Were you being a cluts like usual?" adds Brendan. Brendan and Jack have always some sort of a rivalry, but as it is this is not the time for that, Aidan decides to step in."Hey, can you shut up?" says Aidan still trying to get back to full capacity after getting hit in the head. "Hey, It's been a stressful day alright?" says Brendan. "You think you've had a stressful day?! Look at my head! It looks a like a bloody Picasso Painting!" Aidan shouts at Brendan. "Keep your voice down!" Ethan whispers to Aidan, "You want Springtrap to find us?" says Ethan. "Besides, we should get moving. It's not doing us any good just sitting around here mourning and arguing." Jack and Ethan push down the chairs and tables and make a blockade in case Springtrap decides to come through that hallway. The group stays close to each other as they move down the hallway. The move the way they think they came in but they seem to get nowhere. "This place is a lot bigger on the inside . We'll never get out of here at this rate." says Jack in a morbid tone. *Crash!* A loud crash noise echos through the ventilation system. "What was that?" asks Ethan. "Our way out!" says Aidan with enthusiasm. "What do you mean?" Brendan remarks. "Vents always lead outside! All we have to do is crawl through them and we'll find our way out, simple as that." Aidan scans the room and locates a vent grate on the lower portion of the wall. Aidan hears something in the vents. He tells his group to stay back and he crawls down toward the dark vent shaft remaining vigilant . The loud scraping noise gets louder and louder. Before Aidan can back away from the vent. An animatronic bursts from the vent and pulls him down into the darkness. The animatronic has a large claw clamped down on Aidan's head as he is pulled through vent corridors that all look the same. "Ow! Help, Help me!" Aidan shouts as he falls down a large shaft and lands on a cold, hard tiled floor. The massive claw releases Aidan, he looks up and sees the animatronic that pulled him. A large, clown like animatronic, with a massive claw hand and wires spiking out from gaping holes in the animatronic. Green eyes stare down at him on the floor. "I've been waiting for a gift like this" says the animatronic in a quiet feminine voice. The animatronic walks towards Aidan with the large claw extended outwards snapping open and closed. Right before the animatronic can grab a hold of Aidan. Aidan hurls himself at the animatronic as hard as he can. The animatronic stumbles to the ground. Aidan gets on his feet and throws a chunk of pipe at the already stunned animatronic. Aidan turns and runs to a doorway on his right. Aidan enters a new room and pulls what looks to be a lever right next to the doorway. The door slams shut with the animatronic on the other side. A lone light in the center of the room flickers to life and reveals a chamber underneath the attraction above ground. A lone panel sits in the middle of the room with technology that looks ancient, the screen is scratched up and smudges of liquid cloud the device's already faded screen. The panel flickers to life, the screen shows a recent list of voice calls. All of the calls read the same contact. HRY,HRY,HRY. Aidan pushes the call button for HRY. The person picks up.
"Hello? Can you hear me?" says a deep male voice coming from the panel, "I'm not sure if you can hear me. But if you can, I recommend you listen. My name is Henry, you have wandered into a secret maze of sounds and smells intended for the dead. The animatronic you have just encountered, Scrap Baby, is just a taste of the evil's this place holds. I need you to listen closely, or you'll end up being like the last person who stumbled down here. There should be two vents on each side of the room and a maintenance panel in front of you. I have switched the panel to the camera feed of the attraction above ground. Your friends will not last long up there. You need to get them down here. I will help you all escape. Use the audio prompts you can transmit to the speaker system to guide them where they need to go. Here's the hard part, You need to have Springtrap follow them down here. There is something I need to complete, but to do that I need him down here. I know this is a lot to take in, but I'm your only hope at this point. Good luck.". Aidan attempts to speak "Wait! Your just gonna-" A loud beep is heard and the call from the man ends interrupting Aidan mid sentence.
Aidan does as the man said and switches on the security cams and looks at the map of the place. All of the doors to the outside have been locked and the only way out is in the lower levels where Aidan is now. He begins to scroll through the cameras trying to find his friends on the feeds, every cam shows similar pictures with nothing but empty halls on them. Aidan finally comes across a cam which has his friends running down a hallway towards a corner that leads down another hall. Aidan switches the cam to the hall there are about to go down, Aidan sees Springtrap lumbering to the same corner his friends are at. "Come on… *Pant* we gotta find Aidan!" shouts Ethan running down in front of the group. "Ethan….slow down….we need to stay together" Brendan shouts. Ethan rounds the corner and immediately turns and runs the other way. "Other way!" Ethan shouts, "Springtrap is coming!". The group runs the other way back towards the way they came. The same voice Aidan heard comes over on the loudspeaker. "William, still stuck terrorizing children I see, some life your living." says Henry. "Henry!" shouts Springtrap in a deep raspy voice, "I thought you were dead!" shouts Springtrap. "I could say the same for you." says Henry.A loud pinging noise is heard down the hall. Springtrap and the group both follow the noise. "There must someone else here! We gotta find him!" Shouts Jack. "Not if I get to him first!" shouts Springtrap lumbering behind them. The pinging plays again in a vent to the groups left. "We need to go in there" says Ethan. Brendan is first to crawl into the vent, then Jack, then Ethan. Springtrap soon follows behind them eager to get his hands on both them and Henry.
Aidan sees his friends in the vent. The voice that spoke to him earlier. "Nice Job," says Henry, "I'm opening a door to your left. Get your friends down here and get out, or Springtrap will get you and you don't want that. I'll explain everything later." says Henry. The vent to Aidan's left opens up revealing a dark passage way. A vent opens up above Aidan and the group falls down onto the floor. "Aidan!" shouts Brendan. "We need to go! Now!" says Aidan. Aidan leads the group to the open vent and pushes them into it. Springtrap drops down from the vent and looks directly at Aidan. "Fuck" says Aidan. Aidan jumps into the vent with his other friends and slides down it. The door closes behind him trapping Springtrap in the small chamber.
The group slides into a room with a large console with dozens of TV screens showing camera feeds from the horror attractions and the underground facility. A man in a swivel chair sits in front of the screens watching each one intently. The man turns around and sees the four teens standing near the open vent. "Honestly, I was expecting you to die but hey! You're here! Good!" says Henry. "As you know my name is Henry, I have some history with this place." says Henry. "What the heck is happening." says Brendan. "This place houses four animatronics that have had some history with me and my family and the fazbear line in general." says Henry. "Ennard, he's a weird one. He has something for wearing masks, does not like to show his face." says Henry. "How long have you been here?" announces Aidan in a furious tone. "I will get to that. But If you are going to help me you need to know whose down here and what to expect from all the animatronics. Anyway, there's Scrap Baby, who was the daughter of William Afton, but due to his carelessness,was killed by the very animatronic created by him." says Henry. "William, isn't that Springtrap?" asks Ethan. "Indeed." says Henry. "Where was I? Ah yes the there's Lefty. My….My daughter, she was….killed by William in 1987 at one of the old Freddy's locations. He never admitted to it. Every time I think of her... the face of an animatronic pops into my head. That's not how a father should remember their daughter." Henry's face looks almost deflated as he thinks about his daughter. He regains his composure and continues "Enough about me, it doesn't matter how long I've been here, it doesn't matter what I've done for a living or what I do now. What matters now is us getting rid of these animatronics forever and getting you home."
