Chapter III

1:00 P.M.

Manager's P.O.V.

I was viewing the security footage from this morning and noticed SAD has more to him than meets the eye, the girls did not see him as an endo but as a person, which is a first considering nightguards. "I'll have to as him how he is doing after taking that bullet and some... Other things..."

6:00 P.M.

SAD's P.O.V.

I look at the time on my watch as I approach the pizzarea and notice the look of suprise on the managers face.

Manager: "First of all... How is your arm?"

Me: "Better than this morning." I show him that the wound has healed as he looks at it with shock written all over his face.

Manager: "Lets continue talking in my office." We go into his office away from prying eyes and ears.

Manager: "What are you?"

Me: "Would you really like to know?"

7:00 P.M. (No Spoilers, Sorry)

Manager: "That only partially makes sense."

Me: "Deal with it, that is how it went for me anyways."

Manager: "So Nemodas is a phantom?"

Me: "Aye." (Pronounced: "I")

Manager: "Okay then... The girls want me to see if you can fix a glitch in their systems."

Me: "Like how their facial recignition software does not work on me?"

Manager: "What... No but the one were they see people at night after closing time as endoskeletons."

Me: "Pretty much like the game?"

Manager: "Kinda."

Me: "Say... You never did tell me your name."

Manager: "It is Jason, Jason Barner."

Me: "Huh. Okay then."

Jason: "And your name?"

Me: "Rather Not."

Jason: "Got something to hide?"

Me: "It's nothing but I don't know what you would do so..." I tell him my name and he takes three steps back and stares in shock and amazement with a tint of fear.

Jason: "How?! The country thought you were dead!"

Me: "The old me is dead. I am a new person. Do. Not. Tell. A. SINGLE. Soul."

Jason: "This is MASSIVE! Wait... How could you just not tell anybody?"

Me: "Only those I most trust know. If I learn I can't trust them, I make them forget that name. Literally. All references to it would be forgotten and eradicated from their minds. When it is spoken to them they will instantly forget again. And only I can tell people the name or they will never be able to link it to my face."

Jason: "No wonder I did not recognize you instantly. Okay then..."

Me: "For now however, I will let you remember."

Jason: "I'll keep it a secret. Wait... Do the girls know?"

Me: "They will tonight."

Jason: "You can stay here until your shift starts."

Me: "Talk to ya later."

Jason: "Okay. See you later."

I walk out of the office and strait past all the screaming kids to the parts and service room as my eyes turn black with a white dot in the middle as I look into the shadows trying to find Goldie.

Goldie: "BOO!"

Me: "Gonna have to try harder then that."

Goldie: "Damnit."

Me: "I am here to show you the rest of my memories."

Goldie: "What?"

Me: "Every. Last. One."

Goldie: "Why?"

Me: "I have no reason not to."

I place my hand on her head and we enter my mind. The door that is solid seems to shine almost with a white glow. We step through the solid door and i am battered with my own memories of my past. Goldie covers her mouth with her hands and comes to a sudden stop. We return to our bodys and Goldie is still covering her mouth.

Me: "Now you know all about me. Am I good or bad?"

Goldie: "Good... I... I'll have to talk to the others later."

Me: "Are you okay? You did take the full force of my memories."

Goldie: "I am... Fine."

Nemodas: "If you need to talk, I'll listen."

Me: "As will I."

Goldie: "Thank you but I am good for now."

Me: "Okay then. See you later I guess."

Goldie: "Bye."

She dissapered without a trace. I then went into the guard office to wait for my shift.

Guard: "Who are you and what are you doing back here?"

Me: "I am SADOMEN the nightguard, who are you?"

Guard: "Sad? What the hell are you doing here?"

Me: "Mathew Corper? I should say the same!"

Mathew: "I got the afternoon shift and I needed a bit more cash for a project."

Me: "Fair enough. I got the night shift to save up for a new laptop."

Mathew: "You still have that old one?"

Me: "You know I am not getting rid of it."

Mathew: "Alright then. Just to say I am not surprised that you are still alive."

Me: "Yea? Well I even made friends with the animatronics." Mathew's jaw dropped when I said this.

Mathew: "You mean to tell me, that not only did they not try to kill you... But you made friends with them!?"

Me: "Aye."

Mathew: "How?"

Me: "I think it is because 1. Their facial recognition software does not work on me, 2. I am half phantom, 3. Illusions n shit, 4. They saw my memories and I am not the one they are looking for."

Mathew: "Okay then..."

Me: "Ima just sleep till my shift starts."

Mathew: "Okay. I'll wake you up before I leave."

Me: "Aye, Thank you."

11:30 P.M.

The Dreamscape

Goldie: "Hay Sad, It is 11:30"

Me: "Okay. Wait... Why are you in my mind? Not just my mind but my dream?"

Goldie: "Because I can."

Nemodas(With A Smile): "And is it also the fact that Mathew is planning a prank?"

Goldie: "Yes..."

Me(While Laphing): "He has not landed one on me yet and he will not now. Let him try."

Reality

Mathew's P.O.V.

I have looked forwards to this day... The day I finally get him good. I am about to put whipped cream in his hand when his hand latches onto the whipped cream bottle.

Me: "Shit..." The bottle explodes all over the place, covering the entire office with whipped cream. Some a little pink with blood... My blood.

Me: "DAMN YOU SAD!"

SAD(Laphing): "You should have seen your face!"

I wipe the whipped cream off my face with my left hand as my right arm was killing me. I look at it and notice my hand is gone. Me: "YOU BLEW MY FUCKING HAND OFF."

Nemodas: "We can fix it. Don't worry. But the look on your face... PRICELESS!"

Me: "I KNOW THAT YOU CAN FUCKING FIX IT DAMNIT... THIS IS NOT MY FIRST INJURY BECAUSE OF YOU TWO!"

Goldie's P.O.V.

I went to the security office and what I saw was... Strange to say the least. The customers were all gone thankfully but there was still the day guard Mathew.

Mathew: "DAMN YOU TWO TO HELL!"

I look around and notice everything except Sad and Nemodas was covered by whipped cream... And it was pink... Except for what was on Mathew... What was on him was dark pink and red. His hand was gone and Sad was laphing his ass of and Nemodas was... giggling to say the least.

Me: "Sad... What did you do!"

Mathew: "HE BLEW MY FUCKING HAND OFF!"

Nemodas: "Bad shit happens when you try to prank Sad."

I remember then that this is not his first attempted prank on Sad and that it always goes bad for the attempted pranker.

Sad: "Alright then... I'll take care of Mathew and Nemodas... See what you can do about this mess of a backfired prank

Nemodas: "Okay then."

I follow Sad and Mathew to the main room and the animatronics are gathered around wondering what the pop and yelling was about when they see Sad laphing and escorting a blood and whipped cream covered guard

Bonnie: "What the hell?"

Me: "Mathew, the day guard, tried to prank Sad."

Sad: "Now then old friend... Lets fix you up."

Mathew: "FUCK YOU"

Sad places a hand on Mathew's forehead and Mathew falls asleep.

Freddy: "What was that about?"

Sad: "He was about to prank me with a can of whipped cream in my sleep when I then woke up and made the can blow up in his hand. The can shredded his hand and scattered it all over the office. He has pieces of the can riddled throughout him. And he is an old friend of mine that I have not seen in a while and he has never landed a prank on me that I have not deflected."

Chica: "Did they all turn out like this?"

Sad: "No, not all the time but about half the time he takes an injury."

Sad puts his right hand flat, palm up, then with his other he places Mathew's bloody, bleeding wrist in his right hand then a aura apears around his hands, he then lifts his left along with Mathew's now healed hand. He then extends both hands outward palms facing Mathew as the same thing happens exept the whipped cream fades away along with all the blood stains and collects in a pile off to the side, along with some metles. Sad puts his hands down and looks at his work. He then closes his eyes and Mathew wakes up.

Mathew: "YOU PICE OF... Wait... What THE HELL! SHIIIIIIT!

Sad looks at his watch as Mathew takes on the look of an endo as bells ring. Sad pales a bit then through out his arms as the endo turns to Mathew. Mathew is paralyzed in fear and we stand there for some time.

Mathew: "Why the fuck am I not dead yet?"

Sad: "ILLUSIONS MUTHAFUCKA"

Foxy: "What ye be goin on about?"

Sad: "I am currently making you see Mathew as a person instead of an endoskeleton. Notice how it is now 12:15?"

Sure enough it is 12:15 as reads the clock.

Me: "So..."

Sad: "Do you all want me to see if I can fix the glitch? Also, Mathew, you can go now, you are healed."

SAD's P.O.V.

Right after I said that everybody stares at me as Mathew leaves and locks the doors on his way out. Freddy speaks first.

Freddy: "That would be nice."

Bonnie: "Do you think you can?"

Me: "Possibly, I will have to see and we all will have to find out."

Foxy: "Thank ye lad."

Me: "Aye, now then lets get started, first off: any "incidents" in the past?"

All the animatronics shifted awkwardly at my question.

Me: "Wait... Did murders actually happen or something?! How long has this place been open?"

Goldie: "Well... Yes and this is a second version of this place."

Me: "Welp... Shit... I'm a grab a chair and sit down for this and somebody better get talkin.

Goldie: "This place opened not long after the first game was released by Scott, he then came to us and asked us: "Why did you open this place? Why base it off of my game?" We replied with that it gave us inspiration. Scott then nodded his head knowing that thanks to us and him, people would be inspred one way or another. Not long after that, per say a month, a fight broke out, police showed up, and a few kids died before the fight was over. The fight was between an employee and a gang member on some kind of drug. Fast forwards to two months after the third game, we were doing good, the manager had installed facial recognition software into all of us, we were getting new things including two new animatronics, they were springlock suites, the manager thought it would be comical. The manager decided to try on the Freadbear suite and died, then a random person walked into the back room with some kids while an employee in the Spring Bonnie suite, followed him, the random man killed them, after he barricaded the door, the employee then broke the door, found the man, and died from a kick to the groin, which triggered the springlocks. He then came back to life but hid himself in a dark place, where he could be left alone, he then noticed more things in the dark, souls of those who passed before him and decided to stay, one asked him how he died, him and three other souls told the tale, two weeks later they thought of a plan to save others, some possessed the animatronics while the rest stayed and waited, nobody except a few nightguards have died since, some became spirits as well. As far as I know some other locations have stuff like this going on but not many. Also, that manager trapped inside the Freadbear suite was me. So... Yea... We also have a basement. Now there may be more but that is all the big stuff. We also just remodeled this place.

Me: "Damn... Just... Daaammmnnn."

I look around and the animatronics are still shifting around a bit. I look at my watch and it is 1:00 A.M.

Me: "So the sentience I take it are the souls?"

Foxy: "Aye lad."

Me: "Well then... Did not expect that."

Goldie: "Did you really think the sentience was mechanical?"

Me: "I had suspicions but that's it."

Bonnie: "So can you fix the glitch?"

Me: "If it is the souls interacting with the software then I think so."

Freddy: "I'll go first."

Me: "Prepare yourself, I will have to enter your mind."

Freddy: "I am ready."

Nemo's P.O.V.

Me: "Well then, while that is going on I am going to keep an eye out for things that should not be going on."

Goldie: "Okay then."

Foxy: "See ya lad."

I fade into shadow and wonder around. I notice something on the ground and read it. It is a document and I find out that the murderer was never caught, I sighed and continued walking around until Goldie bumped into me.

Goldie: "Sorry!"

Me: "It is fine. I am not used to many others being in shadow as well."

Goldie: "So then..."

I raise an eyebrow to where it goes over the shades. She just fiddles a bit with her thumbs then says: "Why the shades?"

Me: "Just a habit. It also works with my... Style."

Goldie: "Huh."

Me: "Something is wrong... Very wrong."

Goldie: "What is it?"

I strain my senses then say: "A tortured soul..."
