-Location: ?-

An engine roars loudly as a car barrels down the road. It seemed to bounce slightly on the rocky terrain, the last wasteland before reaching the west coast. But the vehicle wasn't going to the west coast. It took a sudden turn right and continues down the road.

It continued down the road for a few more miles. After finishing its final trek, it reached a slightly large suburb. The vehicle continued down the road, moving slowly as it went along.

After a few more moments it stopped in a largely deserted section of the town. In the center was a large building. A sign was posted out front, but it was too worn down and dirty to be read. But person inside the vehicle seemed to find this their destination as the car slows to a stop in front of it.

The car door opens and a strange figure emerges. He has black, shaggy hair that waves to the left side of his face. His skin was a slightly darker complexion, maybe a side effect of something else. He has on a black security guard outfit, along with a black cloak. He also has two black, red-tipped fox ears on top of his head, and a similarly colored fox tail waving behind him. His fingernails were sharpened to the point and the tips of his canines protruded slightly out of the bottom of his mouth.

Daniel looks around, unimpressed by what he sees. He sighs, feeling much older than he really is. No one should have to do what I have to, he thinks in weariness. He shakes his head, pushing those thoughts aside. No time for self-pity, he needed to get moving.

He crosses the parking lot with large strides and once again looks up at the abandoned building. It seemed more like a warehouse now than a pizzeria. Daniel looks down again and heads inside.

The first thing Daniel notices about the place is the extremely rundown feel of it. Cobwebs were everywhere, water was dripping from pipes, wires hung from the ceiling. Trash was thrown all over the floor, almost as if people didn't know what a trash can was.

Daniel grimaces as he takes this all in. The already sorry sight was increased tenfold in the interior. But now he begins looking for his next passageway. He looks around the room some more, but finds no door. He scratches his head in confusion, taking a step forwards in the process.

*CRACK*

Daniel only had time to register the sound before the floor gives way beneath him. He lets out an involuntary yelp of surprise as he begins plummeting down. He twists his body midair and has just enough time to scream before he smashes into the unforgiving land below. Daniel was knocked out before he hit the ground.

Deep within the underground area Daniel is about to fall into, four figures as speaking with each other.

"I believe it would be best if we just stay here. No one can get hurt that way." one voice says. It is a deeper feminine voice, having a motherly tone to it.

"No way! I ain't stayin' here any longer than I need to! My shows need to be seen!" another voice says in irritation. This one was another feminine voice, having a slightly tomboyish and egotistical tone to it.

"Calm down! I know you want to get out of here, but what if we hurt people again! We can't stop when our-" whatever the gruff, higher pitched male voice was saying was cut off as a loud crash echoes through their chambers.

Each figure freezes, each drawing the same conclusion. "That wasn't something falling, was it." the tomboy voice asks.

Each figure shakes their head negative. The fourth figure then says in a calm and soothing teenage female voice "It's fine guys. We'll check it out. If it is a person, then I doubt they'll have survived that fall. Nothing can happen if they are already dead. But if it was something else, then we'll be fine."

Each figure looks around uncertainly, but nod in the end. They each then walk out of the dimly lit room to figure out what just made the loud noise.

Daniel gains consciousness a few minutes after hitting the ground. He grabs his head in pain, a pounding headache coursing through his head. He grits his teeth and nearly moans in pain when he registers voices around him. His head is too fogged up to hear everything clearly, but he can hear the words 'human', 'tail', 'magic', and 'alive'.

Despite his trying to be unnoticed, a voice calls out that he is walking up. He hears people moving around, heavy footsteps hitting the ground around him. But something is strange about the footsteps. They feel too heavy, way to heavy for a normal person. Deciding he won't get any answers just laying there with his eyes closed, he opens them. And nearly has a heart attack in the process.

Four animatronic figures are staring down at him. The light shadows most of their torsos and head, giving them an ominous appearance. Especially with their glowing eyes. He gulps and grins nervously. "U-Um, hi?"

And there is the kick off for the Final Destination Arc. Things are gonna get interesting here on out! Oh, sorry on how short this chapter is. I wanted to get the ball rolling, and this the best way way I can think of. And I need to do these author notes more. I'm not sure if anyone actually reads these, but if you do and want more, just ask. Also, I am open for story ideas! I'd need to fit it into the plot that has been established in previous chapters, but if you have any ideas then feel free to ask! Also, I am gonna start teasing the next chapter from now on. And here is the first one!

"What kind of human has a tail, hm?" "Aren't you still technically human, even in that body?" "Touche."
