Hi, hello. It's me again, coming at you with another chapter. Remember, things are different here than canon. Enjoy, or not, I don't care you all have your opinions.
Everything belongs to their respective owners.
Chapter Three: The place they came from
The guild could only stare at what Lucy told them. To them, this Fredbear and Friends Pizzeria didn't ring a bell.
"What?" The guild, except for Natsu and Cana, questioned once more.
"You know that place too Lucy?" Cana asked her, getting everyone to look at her.
"Oh, you have been there before as well?" The blonde asked the card mage.
"Of course I have. I went there a few times when I was just a kid. I remember always having a blast when I went there." Cana replied as she drank another barrel.
"Hang on; what's this Fredbear and Friends Pizzeria place?" Gray asked the two, who simply turn to the guild with looks of disbelief.
"You don't know what Fredbear and Friends Pizzeria is?" The two females asked the rest of the guild, as they shook their heads with a no.
"None of you haven't even heard about it? Not at least once in any point of your life?" Cana once again questioned as the guild once again replied with a "No".
Natsu simply remained quiet as the talking went on.
"How could you guys NOT heard about it? It was one of, if not the, most famous pizzeria's ever!" Lucy exclaimed to them.
"Well, care to explain what's the big deal about this place?" Gajeel asked the blonde and brown haired women.
"Alright," Lucy began to speak once more, "Fredbear and Friends Pizzeria was a place where it usually was a pizzeria meant for kids, but everyone who went there usually enjoyed themselves. The pizzaria's main attraction was the five animatronics that performed. Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie the bunny, Chica the chicken, Foxy the pirate fox, and the leader of the gang himself, Fredbear." Lucy finished as memories of going to that place with her mother flooded with her mind. "I always enjoyed myself when I went there."
The guild could only listen as Lucy told them about this Fredbear and Friends Pizzeria. However, Erza manage to catch on to something.
"Hang on Lucy, you said "was", what do you mean by that?" The red haired woman questioned, as she realized that Lucy was speaking in a past term.
"Unfortunately, the place closed down many years ago. I think it closed after the last time I went there." Lucy told them, as she remembered being a bit sad when she learned that her favorite pizzeria shut down.
"Wait what, if this place was as popular as you say it was, why did it close?" Elfman asked the blonde.
Natsu could only dart his eyes away from the others. Luckily, no one noticed.
"Uh… I can't really remember why actually." Lucy replied to them.
"I think I know why," Cana spoke, getting everyone's attention, "I think I remembered hearing that there was some incident with one of the animatronics, causing the place to shut down. It's a shame really, I really enjoyed that place." Cana told them as she remembered that her mother used to take her there.
"Okay, but why would monster, rotten looking versions of animatronics from a kid's pizzeria appear here in the guild?" Laxus questioned.
The others, except for Natsu, couldn't answer that question, as they didn't know why themselves.
"I don't know, were those things even real?" Freed spoke, getting everyone's attention.
"What do you mean?" Lisanna asked the rune mage.
"I mean, you all saw how they turn into smoke and simply vanished. I doubt that simple machinery could do something like that." Freed pointed out.
"Are you saying that those two horrifying animatronics things are simply illusions?" Macao asked him.
"I don't know," Freed went on, "Illusions can't really grab or touch anything, but the two managed to take a hold of Erza and Mira. I don't think those things are simply illusions, but at the same time it doesn't seem that they could actually be real either-."

How long will you last, through these memories of the past
Since without a light to shine the only soul that's left is yours.
The guild was caught with surprise when they heard the voice in their heads again. Everyone looked around to see if they can see anything that may tell them where to voice came from.
"Hey, who's breathing on my neck?" Bickslow questioend as he heard someone breathing behind him.
"Bickslow, no one's breathing behind you." Evergreen replied to him.
"What do you mean; I know someone's breathing behind me." Bickslow turned around, but once he did, he wished he didn't.
*ROAR*
Out of the shadows behind Bickslow a distorted yellow robotic creature appeared and took aim at the mage, but he managed to back away before the creature could get him.
"WHAT IS THAT?!" Some of the guild shouted in fear as they saw the monstrous looking chicken robotic creature.
"I-Is that C-Chica?" Cana questioned as she was shaken by how terrifying the chicken animatronic looked.
"I think it is!" Lucy replied with shocked, as the Nightmare Chica looked around.
'A-Another o-one?' Natsu once again thought to himself as another of his nightmares was right in front of him. 'P-Please tell me it's only the t-three.'
*ROAR*
"AAAAHHHH!" Everyone turned around to see Wendy being grabbed by the head by a purple blue monstrous bunny looking thing about to strike the blue haired sky dragon slayer with its other hand.
"WENDY!" Everyone cried out in worry, but Gajeel managed to strike the distorted bunny animatronic, making it let go of Wendy. However, the Nightmare Bonnie managed to get back up.
'N-No…' The fire dragon slayer once thought to himself as once more another of his nightmares was right in front of him.
The Nightmare Chica and Nightmare Bonnie looked at the guild, as if they were looking for a specific person.
Force down to reckoning, your dreams become the sickening
You thought that you were alone, no they bite you to the bone
You shout!
Once again everyone heard the voice in their heads, as all of a sudden the two nightmare animatronics turned into smoke and vanished once more.
Everyone was caught off guard by that once again. They all looked at each other, as they didn't know what to do about these creatures.
Natsu couldn't think if how his nightmares were alive, but if those four nightmare animatronics were here… could that mean it is here as well?
See you all next time, whenever that will be.
