I do not own Sister Location.

"Alright, Mike," Mr. Fred said as he put down his phone once the call he made ended. We were settled by the Show Stage as children ran around us and played, me sitting on the edge of the stage out of the way of the kids view of the animatronics while Mr. Fred stood next to me. "I've settled everything with William. You're working with him for five nights before coming back here. If you have any questions or concerns, he'll be the one to go to."

I nodded. I was honestly excited at the prospect of working in a new building with new animatronics. Considering the place was called Circus Baby's Pizza World, a Freddy animatronic wouldn't be the center of attention.

I had only heard about the place when Mr. Fred gave the okay to build it, and Mr. Afton was said to have made the robots in his very own robotics corporation. They had been previously made models, and were being tested out with the public after years of being in storage. It would be interesting to see what they looked like and if any of them resembled the animatronics at Freddy's, since the place was supposed to be a sister location to it.

"William will meet us here in about an hour or so to go over some rules with you," Mr. Fred continued. "Safety procedures, technology you'll be working with, all that stuff. We'll discuss this in the Office, since it will be quieter there. I'll have to check on things in the kitchen before you're done talking, so I'll leave the rest to you."

I nodded again. Now I'll be able to find out what's going on and why people keep leaving the late night technician job.

"Think you got everything, Michelle?" Mr. Afton asked. Mr. Fred had left the room about an hour ago, so it was just the two of us talking.

"I believe so," I replied. What he had told me was a lot of information to take in, though.

He laughed. "Don't worry if you don't. We have a HandUnit that will tell you what to do as you go through your tasks, and it's usually specific to help avoid any confusion. It makes the job a lot easier."

"Why do people you hire keep leaving, then?" I asked.

"My past technicians have quit because of one thing or another, saying the animatronics are dangerous to be around," he explained. "Which is highly preposterous because my own employees built these robots themselves. Well, technically they're from a company we partnered with, but still. I trust my employees to give me quality results. And I'm trusting you to do the same. Mr. Fred told me you're one of his best employees, and I'm holding him to it that you'll be a great addition to the team for the five nights I have you working for me."

I smiled at him, though I frowned on the inside. Dangerous animatronics? Sounded alarmingly similar to when I first started working at Freddy's. Vincent couldn't have worked there, though, since the place opened after he became Springtrap. Maybe the animatronics just had some sort of malfunction or something. They were older models put into storage, so it wouldn't surprise me if that was the case.

"I'll do my best, sir," I replied. "And please, call me Mike."

"Great!" Mr. Afton said enthusiastically. "I'll see you tonight, then. Have a good rest of the day, Michelle."

"It's Mike," I replied, but he had already left the Office and was on his way out.

I sighed. Oh well. I should at least try to make the best of this.

Sorry about the short chapter. Most of the ones between nights are going to be short, so please bear with me on this.
