Ohmigosh! I finally finished chapter 2!
Hey everybody, it's betabug01 here, and yes! I finally got this chapter done. Sorry about that. School things happened, and then other things happened. Life stuff. But here it is! I'm gonna try to get back into regular story uploads, though I'm not gonna get super duper stressed if I don't meet a deadline.
causewritingshouldbefuny'know?
Now, before we get into the chapter, I've got a few updates I wanna tell you guys and gals (and other genders if you do not identify as either, I love you people too). Now, first order of business. From August 7th to (I think) the 23rd, I will be gone camping. I think, I dunno. Might have to check the scheduling on that because I probably have to come in mid way through. So what does this mean for you guys?
Weeeeeeeeeeeeell,
What does a betabug01 do when he's stuck in a camp sight...for seventeen days...with limited electricity?
Go swimming for eight hours straig-?
He writes...a lot...a lot a lot...like, many words...
How, you ask? Well, I use this weird technology called "Paper". I don't know if you've heard of it, but it's apparently been around for...
...a while...I guess...
But seriously, don't worry about story updates. I'll have the chapter basically done by the time I get back, and then it's just a quick rewrite on the computer, and out the door, three day delivery guaranteed or your money back.
And, that about covers everything...
Oh! Also, I'm planning on doing a Halloween fic this year, so I'll probably have a bit of that done while camping to if I have time. I wanted to do it last year, but I was busy with 'What we Have in Common' (Yes updates to that story will come...when I get to them) so there's that as well.
Now, on with the show!
...
But first a disclaimer, and then the show!

Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria: 12:37 am:
It was a quiet night at the restaurant, and all the animatronics were fast asleep. Freddy, Chica, Fred and Chi all lay beside one another on the stage, their minds full of happy dreams and thoughts. They were hosting a large scale birthday party tommorow, and each one of them were thinking about all the fun they were going to have. Everything was quiet and peaceful...
...that is, until...
*SHATTER*
The unmistakable sound of glass breaking echoed throughout the front of the restaurant, alerting all four animatronics that something was wrong.
"Good gracious, what was that?!" Fred shrieked as he sat up.
Freddy looked around. The room was nearly pitch black, save for the faint light from the windows in the dining area. But...something was wrong...
"What the...?" The large bear paused for a moment. He swore he'd seen something move, and that was all the information he needed. "I might've known...Fred, follow me...Chica, Chi...get to the backstage, and keep out of sight..."
Chica gulped. She knew better than anyone that something was seriously off. "Freddy, what are you-"
"Just, don't worry about it." the bear ordered, looking back at the hen. If things were going down the way he thought they were, then he wanted Chica to be as far away from the situation as possible. "We'll be fine...now c'mon Fred...let's go see what happened."
The smaller bear nodded, but felt quite nervous all the same. He wasn't sure what could've caused what he could only assume was one of the windows to shatter like that, but thinking about what could have done it wasn't helping him keep calm.
Quietly, the two bears sneaked their way over to the restaurant entrance. The building was dark, but there was still a little bit of light coming from the large windows in the front, as well as the faint light from the two animatronics optics. It wasn't much, but it was enough to keep them from running into walls and or each other.
As they got closer, faint voices could be heard. One sounded quite flustered, while a few others sounded rather frustrated.
Freddy quickly dragged the smaller bear behind a wall, and listened in on the conversation.
"Quiet as a cat my ass." hissed a voice.
"Oh, stiddle ficks, I-I mean, fiddle sticks!" came another, slightly more synthetic voice. Freddy peered around the corner, and could faintly make out some silhouettes standing amongst the bits of broken glass.
"Shut it, you! Before those damn bots wake up!" a third voice, similar to the first one, growled.
"What do you see?" Fred asked, quiet enough to not be heard by the bickering voices.
Freddy was confused. There were, what looked like four silhouettes. Two were about what you'd expect. One a little bigger than the other, but about the size of a person. The other two, however...
...well, Freddy wasn't sure. One of them had a similar height to the others, but seemed to be wearing what looked like pointy ears...and the other was huge, and at least three feet taller than the others...and...
...was that a second head?
"I'm...not sure..." the bear said, ducking back behind the wall. "...but I'll tell you one thing. They sure aren't the night janitor..."
"I figured...so, what do we do?" Fred asked, his arms crossed. They had to find a way to run these thugs out, before they broke anything else.
"Okay...here's the plan. I'll loop around to the other side of the dinning area, and-"
"Aye, what do we have here?" Freddy nearly felt his pump stop at hearing that voice. Of course Foxy would hear the crash and come running.
"Wh-Who's there?" came the voice of the slightly smaller thug.
"A little far away from home, aren't we?" a second, more feminine voice asked. Fred sighed. Vix, too? This wasn't gonna end well.
"Show yourself!" the larger thug yelled. "And don't you dare think about runnin' Gerald!"
"Me? Running? Ha, don't make me laugh. I ain't sca- agh!" The shorter thug yelled in pain at feeling Vix deliver a strong punch to his stomach, before retreating into the darkness.
"Not so tough, are ya?" the vixen taunted.
"That was a big mistake, fox." came the voice of the more bulkier grunt. "Blank. Trash 'em!"
"Yes, sir." a simple, synthetic sounding voice said, before stepping forward. At that moment, a bright light was shone at the two foxes, blinding them.
"Arg!" Foxy growled, covering his eyes. He wasn't all that fond of bright lights, especially when they were right in his face. Before he could react, he heard a shrill scream from Vix.
"Ahh!" she cried, feeling a humongous force smash down on her.
"Lass!" The fox snarled, before turning to the source of the light. "Why I outta- Ah!"
"Foxy!" the vixen cried. She could only watch as, what looked like a smaller black looking figure jump from her attacker, and latch onto the fox's face.
"Stay away from my friend!" the figure said, in a voice that wasn't to different from Vix's. The white fox was just about to help her red friend, when-
"Me no done with girly fox yet." the simple sounding voice said, grabbing the vixen by her leg.
Freddy's eyes widened, and he growled. "Y'know what? Forget the plan. They need our help!" And before Fred could stop him, the larger bear was already part of the fight, tackling the large, and surprisingly heavy, figure away from the white fox.
Vix sighed in relief, thankful that she hadn't been smashed into bits and pieces.
"Hey!" the synthetic voice, of who's owner had smashed the glass, growled.
Fred wasn't far behind the larger bear, tearing the smaller...whatever it was, away from Foxy.
"Ahh!" the feminine sounding figure said as she was thrown to the floor, tumbling towards the two thugs, and landing at their feet. "Oowie..."
Foxy grinned a little as he realized who had saved him and Vix. "Much appreciated, lad. Now, about them."
The large figure stared at the four bots. "Destroy them, Gerald?"
The thinner man shot a look at the large black figure, before nodding. "Yeah, sure. Go ahead. You too cat boy."
"R-Right away!" the third inorganic voice replied.
"You two ready?" Freddy asked, preparing himself for a fight. Though, deep down, he wasn't too sure he was ready himself. All...four? Five?
...yeah, five figures, were covered from head to toe in black, making it hard to see them in the already dark room. The flash light in his eyes courtesy of the crooks wasn't doing him any favours.
"Aye," Foxy replied, barring his teeth through a very unnerving smile as he fought through the brightness of the flashlight. "I be always ready."
Unaware of what was happening in the front of the restaurant, a certain purple bunny and his blue companion were enjoying some quality time together in what they had long since decided to dub, 'the Secret Room,' even if it wasn't all that secret. The two of them had been coming there for a little while now, and always looked forward to their nightly routine. They'd come in...practice some songs...maybe share some 'borrowed' treats from the kitchen...and to end it all off, the two would often snuggle closely together as they fell asleep.
Bonnie couldn't quite put his finger on why he always looked forward to these little bed time activities so much. Maybe it was because he could share his passion of music with someone who really understood the art of playing guitar...or maybe it was because it was so relaxing to come there at the end of a long day...
...or maybe it was because he always ended the night by sitting next to his blue bunny buddy, feeling her soft, warm fur mesh with his own. Moments like these often reminded him of the first time they met. Like, actually got to know each other. Everything about the blue bun gave him a warm, tingly feeling down in his chest...
...her blue and white fur...those big, floppy ears that covered her eyes as she slept...
One moment in particular that really made him feel for her was when he found out how ticklish she was. That smile on her face was unlike one he'd ever seen before, and the way she laughed was like music to his ears.
...strange...
That wasn't to say that Bonnie's feelings were one sided however. Not by a long shot. Though, Bon felt it quite hard to explain what she felt exactly. She liked being around Bonnie, but not in the same way as she liked being around her other friends. It felt like...something more...something that she couldn't describe in words alone. It was something that started so small, and grew into something much larger as time between them passed. But try as she might, she just couldn't find a way to put what she felt into words...
Not that it mattered, considering she'd never have the guts to tell him even if she did have the right words.
But then again, as long as she was with him, that didn't really matter either, did it? She was happy just where she was, and wouldn't trade this position for the world.
However, the two bunnies would soon find their little alone time cut short by a light banging sound that woke the blue belle up.
"H-Huh? Wh-What was that?" she asked tiredly, rubbing her heavy eyes. She looked up, and was just able to make out the faint outline of Bonnie, who was still fast asleep.
Maybe it was my imaginati-
*clunk*
Nope, definitely real...
The bunny's ears perked up, hearing the noise echo through the vent. It sounded like it was coming from one of the party rooms.
She turned back to Bonnie. He seemed so relaxed, lying on the floor the way he was. She'd hate to disturb him. After all, a good nights sleep was important!
Bon nodded to herself, and decided to take matters into her own paws. No weird knocking sounds were going to keep her friend awake!
Very quietly, the blue bunny wiggled out of Bonnie's arms and tiptoed out of the room. The bun made quick work of getting to where she thought the noise was coming from, but when she peered inside, the only thing that greeted her was the dark, emptiness of the room.
"That's weird..." Bon whispered to herself, thinking things over. Maybe she hadn't heard anything after all?
The blue bunny, unsure of what to think, was just turning around, when-
*bump*
She ran right into something, before jumping back a little. "O-Oh, s-sorry Bonn-" But just as Bon was about to apologize for running into who she thought was her bunny buddy, an unfamiliar voice spoke out.
"Hey, no problem doll." The figure, who clearly wasn't Bonnie, replied before turning around and revealing their rather terrifying appearance to the blue bunny. They were about as tall as Bonnie, but that was the only thing the two had in common. This figure looked very beat up, had an unnaturally long face, and...
...was that a pair of mouse ears?
Bon stared up at the spooky looking figure, feeling her legs wobble. She couldn't see too many defining details, considering it seemed to have an inherent black colour. All she could do was gawk, unsure of to say as her mind raced at a million miles per hour.
OhmygoshohmygoshwhoisthisthingwhatisthisthingwhatisitdoinghereisthisanightmarethismustbeanightmareohmanohmanohmanwhatdoIdowhatdoIdorunyesthat'swhatIshoulddofeetwhyaren'tyourunningc'monthisspookyblackmonster'sgonnaeatmeandyoustillaren'trunningyetBonwhyaren'tyourunning?!
The strange, dark figure speaking was what brought her back to reality. "What? S'there somethin' on my face, doll? Well, beside this black stuff, I'm sayin'." The black figure started to approach Bon, giving her a uncomfortably close look at itself. It's eyes, or at least where it's eyes would be, were completely black...yet, it could see her just fine. "C'mon, don't go numb on me now, doll. I haven't even got to know ya-"
"HEEEEEEEEEEELP!"
The blue bunny scream louder than she'd ever screamed, causing the figure to stumble back in surprise. "Hey, now." the figure said in a rather irritated manner. "What'd I do ta deserve that? Y'know, where I come from, a yellin like that is only heard when someone's being beatin' senseless." The dark figure grabbed a handful of fur on the bunny's chest, pulling her close to it. Bon struggled with all her might to get away, but it was no good under the tattered shadow's grasp. Using it's other arm, the figure grabbed Bon's back in an uncomfortably low place, making it impossible for her to escape. "Ooh, a feisty one, eh? Heh, good. I like someone with a little fight in 'em."
"How about me?"
Before Bon's mystery attacker knew what hit him, he was knocked clean off his feat by none other than-
"B-Bonnie!" Bon cried, smiling a little. Bonnie would save her, just like always!
"Gah, cheap shot." the tattered figure growled, getting back to it's feet.
Bonnie sneered at the shadowy attacker. "You're one to talk. You think she can scream loud? Wait till I get my hands on you."
"Is that a threat?" The black figure crossed it's arms, not seeming at all intimidated by the bunny. "Let me tell you something, buster. I was gonna take it easy on the doll...show her a good time, y'know? But ya cross a certain line when ya pull stunts like those. You wanna get rough? I'll show ya rough."
"Get behind me, Bon." Bonnie said, keeping his eye trained on the figure. The blue bunny offered no argument as she backed up a good few feet...
Then a few more...
...and a couple more...
...maybe one more...
"Smart move, boy..." the figure said in a taunting way. "...gettin' yer girl ta run, tryin' ta be the big man. Wouldn't want her to watch me tear ya ta pieces. Might make me look bad."
"You don't need my help there." Bonnie teased back, readying himself. He was no stranger to burgles like this. That scream from Bon was just what they needed to get the others attention. It wouldn't be long before Freddy came in with the cavalry, ready to show this criminal the door.
...or so he thought...
