Henry walks fast with the two remaining teenagers close behind him. "The power restart will happen in about five minutes. This will blow this place to kingdom come, so we have to be out of here before that happens." says Henry not even looking back. "What about the animatronics?" asks Aidan staying close behind Henry. "The substance that allows their souls to hide in the suits, remnant, is extremely susceptible to fire. The fire from the explosion will burn them away ending this horror story." Explains Henry as he opens a door. Before Henry can even fully make it through the door, "Stop!" he loudly whispers as he walks through the door way. "Mr. Henry...Where do you think you're going?" says a childish feminine voice. "Elizabeth...What do you want?" says Henry remaining cautious. "You know I can't let you leave. Father won't allow it." says the animatronic at the end of the hallway. "You don't have to listen to him. You can let me leave. Your father won't hear of this, I promise you." responds Henry. The animatronic, Scrap Baby, takes a step closer. "I know there were more of you." says Baby her eyes narrowing, "Lefty found a teenager near dead on the floor. She insisted that she save him for her...experiments." says Baby giggling. Aidan steps out from behind Henry, "You have Ethan?" Where is he?" says Aidan trying to keep back his rage. "You act like I know, he was gone the last time Lefty was there. Probably died trying to escape." says Baby toying with Aidan's emotions. Brendan hits Aidan on the back of the head, "We DID leave him! I told you we could've saved him!" says Brendan whispering loudly. Aidan looks at Brendan and looks back at Baby. Before Baby can say anything, she's cut off by a voice over the intercom, "Power restart in t-minus 4 minutes." says the voice. "Sounds like you have somewhere to be." says Baby as she takes another step closer. "It would be a shame if you didn't make it on time." she says as she takes another step, and another, and another. Baby extends her large claw outwards reaching for Henry and the two teenagers. Henry turns around to run out the door they came through, but standing there is Springtrap blocking the doorway. "Hello Henry..." says Springtrap as he takes a step through the doorway. "It really was a pain breaking out of that chamber you and your little rats trapped me in." Henry takes a step back from the hulking animatronic. "I've been waiting years for this opportunity. All these years you've been chasing and chasing, but now you're here with nothing else to chase." says Springtrap his hands twitching. "William...You know it doesn't have to come to this. You can just let us walk away and we can pretend this never happened." says Henry out of options. "Do you think I'm stupid Henry? I know what that power reset will do. You're gonna blow this place sky high and burn away our remnant. I'm gonna make sure you burn with us..." says Springtrap as he and Baby get closer and closer.
Jack hoists himself onto the lone ladder in the ventilation shaft. He helps Ethan up and lets him start climbing. Ethan slowly but surely starts climbing the ladder with Jack following close behind. "How are you wounds Ethan? Any worse?" asks Jack looking back making sure no one else is following him. "The bandages will do the job for now, but I'll need to get to a hospital as soon as we can." says Ethan lifting his arms slowly. "How did you even get in that room? You looked awful." asks Jack. "One of the animatronics found me on the ground. I was hurt bad by one of the other ones. Anyway it brought me to that room and hooked me up to that machine. It wanted to keep me alive for some reason." says Ethan between breathes as he climbs. "Weird" responds Jack. Ethan stops climbing and Jack almost runs into him. "Why are you stopping?" asks Jack curiously. "There's a hatch, the handle is all rusted. I'm not sure if it will open." says Ethan in a worried tone. "Are you able to move over so I can help you push?" asks Jack. Ethan nods and pushes himself out of the way as much as possible. "Try that" says Ethan. Jack works his way up and grips the rusted handle. "On 3. 3...2...1...Push!" says Jack as he turns the handle. With all the strength they can muster, Ethan and Jack push up with their backs on the hatch. The hatch groans and creaks but it doesn't budge. "One more time. Push!" Ethan and Jack hurl themselves upwards onto the hatch. With a loud snap, the door swings open revealing the cloudy night sky above. Rain pours down into the hatch. Jack helps Ethan out of the hatch, then he soon follows. Ethan collapses onto his knees and looks up towards the rainy sky. The rain drips down his skin and starts washing all the dirt and grime off of him. Jack climbs out of the hatch and lies down on the wet ground and closes his eyes. "W-Where are we?" asks Jack panting. "Looks like w-we're somewhere in town. I think we're in an alley behind some buildings." Says Ethan lying down onto his back. "W-We made it..." says Jack as he stands up. "We made it!" shouts Jack as he thrusts is arms into the air. "Yeah we did..." says Ethan still panting on the ground. "Where do we go from here?" asks Ethan as he sits up. "I dunno. Let's head out and find some help." says Jack as he extends his hand outwards towards Ethan. Ethan grabs his hand and pulls himself up off the ground. The two start walking out of the dark alley way.
Henry looks to his left and right, an animatronic on both sides. "Stop!" says a female voice from the ventilation system. Coffin breaks down through the grate covering the ventilation shafts. She jumps down and looks up, her eyes glowing red. "He's mine..." she says as she strides behind Baby. Baby swings her large claw at Coffin. Coffin grabs the claw mid-swing and twists it shredding the wires connected to Baby's torso. Coffin swings her other arm around and grabs a hold of Baby's face. Coffin starts tearing and shredding chunk after chunk off of Baby. Springtrap runs towards the fight to help his daughter. Henry sees an opening, "Follow me!" shouts Henry as he runs through the doorway Springtrap was blocking. Springtrap grabs Coffin's hand that's on Baby's face. Springtrap pulls the arm down thrusting Coffin to the ground. Coffin uses her other arm to grab Springtrap's jaw. Coffin pulls down and tears Springtrap's jaw clean off. Springtrap stumbles backwards from the sudden blow. Uses her non-claw hand to grab some of the wires that are jutting from Coffin's chest. Baby pulls as hard as she can on the wires. Coffin shrieks as her innards are pulled. Springtrap maneuvers his way behind Coffin. He grabs some of the wires that are poking out of the back of Coffin's head. Just as Baby did, Springtrap pulls as hard as he can. Coffin falls onto the ground as she is pulled from two different directions. Just as it seems Coffin is about to give up, the wires Baby is pulling on snap. Baby falls to the ground still holding the ends of the wires. Coffin sees this an opportunity, she spins around causing Springtrap to lose hold of the wires. Coffin reaches down by Springtrap's neck and grabs a hold of the spring lock crank. Coffin starts turning the crank. Springtrap's innards shift and snap as the spring locks battle with the decaying human remains inside of him. With one hard turn, Springtrap's remains finally give way causing the endoskeleton to retract to the sides of the suit. Blood and bodily fluids spray all over the floor. Springtrap falls to the floor limp as he no longer has control of the endoskeleton. Coffin lets go of Springtrap and turns her attention to Baby. Coffin thrusts herself forward and grabs a hold of Baby's head. With one hard turn from Coffin, Baby's head snaps clean off. Coffin drops Baby's head and climbs back into the ventilation system to chase after Henry.
"The main ventilation unit is just ahead! We're almost there!" says Henry running with Aidan and Brendan close behind. Henry, Aidan, and Brendan run through the door way into the main ventilation unit. Ahead of them is the ladder the leads straight to the surface. "Attention. Power restart in t-minus 2 minutes." says the voice over the intercom. "Let's get out of here!" says Brendan running towards the ladder. "Not so fast..." says Coffin as she jumps down from the ceiling. "You're not leaving...No one is. You will stay down here with me...forever" says Coffin as she breaks out into an evil laugh. "Isn't it funny Henry? Years ago you and I were in this very same room. That time you got away...this time you won't" says Coffin as her eyes narrow on Henry. Aidan sneaks off to the side out of her peripheral vision. He quietly picks up a large wrench off of the floor. As Coffin still speaks to Henry, Aidan sneaks up behind Coffin. With one swift swing, Aidan bashes the wrench into Coffin's already small legs knocking her off of her feet. "Run!" says Aidan to Henry. Henry runs as fast as he can towards Aidan. Coffin gets up off of the floor and grabs Henry's leg. "Not so fast..." she says as she slams Henry into the wall. "Attention. Power Restart in t-minus 30 seconds" says the voice of the intercom. Brendan runs and grabs Aidan. "We're getting out of here!" says Brendan as he sprints towards the ladder. Aidan looks back at Henry who is cornered by Coffin. Aidan hesitates for a moment, could he really leave Henry? After everything he did for them? Aidan closes his eyes and runs towards the ladder. Henry sees Aidan and Brendan climbing swiftly up the ladder. "Hey! Where are you going?! You can't leave me! I saved you! You little bastards! Get back here!" Screams Henry in rage. "Attention. Power restart in t-minus 10...9...8..." says the voice of the intercom. Brendan makes it to the top and looks down at Aidan. "Come on Aidan! You're almost there! Faster!" pleads Brendan. "6...5...4...3..." says the voice. Aidan hurries his pace as the countdown almost reaches zero. "2...1...Power restart initiated" says the voice. The lights down in the facility flicker for a moment. Then...*BANG!* An ear splitting explosion rocks the facility. Fire floods through the hallways. Henry, still pinned down by Coffin sees the large inferno barreling towards the ventilation unit. "NOOOOOO!" screams Henry as the room is consumed by flames. Aidan jumps up to the surface and quickly backs away from the small opening. Fire shoots out of the small hole like a busted fire hydrant. Aidan and Brendan back away from the hole. The fire eventually stops, leaving just the sound of rain hitting concrete. "We did it..." says Brendan. Aidan smiles and stands up. Brendan looks around and sees police and fire department lights flashing just outside of the alley way they are in. The two teens make their way over to them.
