CHAPTER 12
"So you've been with the company before?" The Boss asked the man in front of him. He was from the sister location and had been sent to his own location to work. And a new position had just become open.
"Yeah, I was at the old location."
"What were you doing?"
"I provided training for the old suits that were there. They were called spring-lock suits. People could get inside them, but it was too dangerous."
"Yes, I remember. And you work at our sister location as well?"
"Yes, though the animatronics there were a little… strange." The man shifted uncomfortably. "But I did well there, so they moved me here. For whatever position you need me for, I guess." It was obvious that he knew what position he would end up with too.
The Boss stared at the man. It would seem that he knew more than he let on about the possibility of sentient robots. Maybe he would have more luck. At least this was a decent man whom he shouldn't need to worry about for getting into trouble… or killing anyone. As long as he survived the night. The Boss thought about the angry animatronics and the events that had unfolded merely the previous night.
"You're hired. Night shift. Be here tonight from midnight to six. You should already have an idea on what to do. Keep an eye on the camera's and watch the power. It's limited at night." The Boss said abruptly.
"Actually, I was kind of hoping I could start after the holidays? After all, tomorrow is Christmas Eve."
"Fine, whatever. Just make sure to be here the night after." And with that, the Boss left the office and the man went out to look around the pizzeria.
'Good luck.' The Boss thought to himself as he watched the young man's retreating back. Such a shame an actual nice person finally applied, and probably wouldn't last a night. Although not he needed to find a night guard for tomorrow night. There was no way he could find someone tonight.
The Boss thought that the young man had no idea what he was getting himself into, but the Boss was the one that had no idea.
The young man's name was Keelan. He was tall and rather slender. He had short dark hair and bright green eyes. As Keelan looked around the pizzeria, he couldn't help but feel nostalgic. When he was younger he used to love going Fazbear's. Though that was back when those spring-lock suits were being used. When he was a little older he worked the day shift providing training. But then… things happened and the restaurant was shut down.
Since then the restaurant here was opened. They had made a sister location a bit later which is where he had been working. But this time he was on the night shift. It was then that his love for the franchise died to a low kindle. But he survived the week, so he could only hope it would be easier tonight. He had a feeling that the robots would be similar to those he had previously worked with.
A shiver ran down his spine as he walked past the show stage on his way out. He could almost swear that he could feel Freddy's eyes on his back as he walked away. But even though he knew what could happen, he had to stay. After all. He was, despite himself, intrigued by the animatronics. He still loved them, even though he had seen with his own eyes the horrors that they could cause.
Determined not to be added to those horrors, Keelan left the pizzeria. But he would be back.
Freddy's eyes followed the man's back as he left. Freddy was sure that he had been hired on the spot. He actually seemed nice, but Freddy wouldn't let that get to him. Not anymore. He had been deceived too many times. No, tonight the deadly game would begin. Would he be able to survive? Freddy laughed his deep laugh quietly to himself. They would see. But Freddy would make sure that tonight the guard would walk right into hell.
