-You Can't-
Chapter 2: Blood and Mucus
Marionette looked at her big family with a huge smile. Foxy was in Pirate Cove, telling the children wonderful stories about monsters that he had fought, because he was a pirate, Freddy, Bonnie and Chica were playing music on stage and giving cupcakes to the children, and Spring Bonnie was playing with Plushtrap around the Game Area. She'd done all that she could do to help every animatronic as well as the others, and it seemed to work. They were her family, she was... Well, she was the mother, in a way.
The only one who wasn't there was Fredbear because of his lack of endoskeleton. He was hidden in the Safe room, where nobody could see him, with his new plushie. Marionette was sad for him. She couldn't do anything to help him, even if she tried. The body took too many space, she couldn't put back an endoskeleton in there.
Fredbear didn't really mind because he was able to teleport wherever he wanted to go, but... Marionette was sad for him. She shook her head when she noticed something at her right. It was Bonnie, who was inviting her to come to the party.
Like every time, she smiled but declined the offer, stating that she needed to do something important. The purple bunny lowered his ears but didn't reply, walking towards Freddy and Chica slowly.
The Puppet plushie approached Marionette and took her hand, wanting her to listen to it. "Why don't you go with them ?"
"Fredbear is alone, he needs some company." She explained, turning away and going to the Safe room.
Her plushie followed her, wondering what was Marionette's intentions. The Puppet didn't do anything without a precise plan in mind.
When they reached the door of the room, Marionette stopped walking and remained still, hesitating before pushing the door handle. She turned the lights on and glanced at Fredbear, who seemed quite surprised to see her. "Hi Fredbear."
"Hi Mario."
"Marionette." She corrected in an annoyed and dangerous way.
The golden bear smiled playfully. "Whatever. What do you want ?"
Marionette came closer to him, sitting beside him and wondering for several seconds. "Did you notice ?"
"What ?" He asked, staring at the puppet plushie, which was approaching them without saying a single word.
"The animatronics... The blood..."
Fredbear remained for a little while before nodding slowly. "I saw that... From their eyes and their mouth..."
Marionette confirmed by nodding and looked at her plushie. It was coming towards her, seemingly intending to comfort her. She smiled to it and looked at Fredbear, who was thinking about something. "What are you thinking about ?"
"You know exactly what I am thinking about the situation. The pizzeria is going to shut down, and we are going to be left to decay in there."
The Puppet didn't answer, knowing that this affirmation was true and sad about it. What could she do ? She couldn't remove the corpses from the animatronics and she just hasn't got the time to wash them every night. Moreover, it was too late to change things.
The Marionette plushie hugged her counterpart and the room felt silent. Fredbear decided to go to look after the animatronics and teleported away, in a dark corridor where he could see everything without being seen.
Marionette and her plushie came back few minutes ago, sadder than before. The children were scared and the animatronics were too. A child ran to his mother while pointing Chica. "Mummy, there is blood under her eyes !"
Spring Bonnie was crying in a corner of the room, children afraid of him surrounding him and pointing him. "Monster !" some were yelling, "Are you okay ?" some others were asking. Spring Bonnie had blood rushing to his head, he felt like he was sick. Everything around him was confused, and his head was killing him.
Marionette took a look at him and rushed to him, carrying him to the Back room to check if everything was alright. Spring Bonnie stared at her before fainting. Marionette layed him on the table and went back to the Dining Area, but the restaurant was already close.
She came towards Freddy, Chica, Bonnie and Foxy, seeing that they were both shock and saddened by the events. She tried to smile and put a hand on Foxy's shoulder, giving him support. This experience was hard for him, he was the younger animatronic of the pizzeria.
The red animatronic cried out and ran to Pirate Cove, hiding while weeping. Freddy looked at him with sad eyes before turning to Marionette. "What do we do ?"
Marionette shook her head sadly. She didn't know what to do. This situation was as bad as could be. The pizzeria was going to shut down, for sure, if she didn't try anything. But what could she eventually do ?
An idea came to her. She needed to speak with Plushtrap. Right now.
Without warning, Marionette made her way to the Spring Bonnie plushie and took it. The Spring Bonnie plushie yelled at her to put him down but she didn't listen.
She went to the Back room and put the plushie on the table, just beside the unconscious body of Spring Bonnie, closing the door. Plushtrap looked at her without understanding before asking: "What the hell is wrong ? I was playing with Fredbear."
"I know." Marionette replied, thinking quickly about her new idea.
Plushtrap frowned and asked, lost: "And so ?"
The puppet sighed and sat beside him, taking her head between her hands while wondering. That was the only thing she could do. "I need your help."
"Why ? What are you plotting ?"
"I'm going to build new animatronics. Four new animatronics." Marionette explained very quickly.
Plushtrap nodded and stood up, running to the shelves and taking some animatronic parts. "Do you have what you need to do that ?"
"I have a lot of plastic. We could probably give it form."
"Maybe." Plushtrap nodded. "But do you know what animatronics you want ?"
Marionette thought about it for several seconds before standing up and explaining: "I want Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy."
Plushtrap frowned, wondering. "But-"
"We need to build more friendly versions of them-"
"What are we going to do for the original ones ?" The Spring Bonnie plushie asked.
The truth was that Marionette didn't think about what would happen to the others. That was a good question. She could just leave them inside the Back room. She was going to do that. "Well, I have the perfect idea."
After hours and hours building the new ones, Marionette had finished what she was creating. There were the four new animatronics, the younger versions of the original ones. They were quite like her, with the red and pink cheeks and the material used. They seemed really more friendly than the others.
She thought about creating younger versions of Fredbear and Spring Bonnie too when she noticed that Plushtrap was doing something beside her. That was a smaller animatronic with a big round belly, and it seemed like a little boy. Marionette stared at Plushtrap furiously and approached the new animatronic.
"Hello." The boy said when he turned to her.
He had balloons in his right hand and a sign in his left one with written on it "Balloons !". Marionette glanced at Plushtrap, who was quite surprised about the result of his experience.
The 'Balloon Boy' animatronic smiled and said "Hi" to Plushtrap. The plushie didn't know how to react so he remained silent and regained with Marionette the Dining Area.
Freddy, Bonnie and Chica were performing on the show stage while Spring Bonnie was trying to comfort the child that was hiding everyday under a table to cry. Obviously, the kid was afraid of the animatronics. Marionette looked at the scene sadly before approaching Spring Bonnie, putting a hand on his shoulder. "Let him go... You are scaring him."
"But... That's not my intention..." The golden bunny answered, offering his hand to the kid, who was crying louder.
"He wants to be alone." Marionette said, taking him away from the child.
The little boy was still crying but stopped when he saw Plushtrap. The plushie smiled to him and came towards him but then, the boy ran out of the restaurant. Plushtrap joined Marionette and Spring Bonnie without saying anything when he heard the manager and his employees entering the restaurant.
Every animatronic except the three shut into sleep-mode, the employees looking at them without a word. Marionette, Spring Bonnie and Plushtrap hid in the darkest corner of the room, examining the scene.
Mark, the manager, sighed sadly. "What can we do for them ? Children don't love them anymore."
"We could just close the restaurant and opening a new one ?" One of the employees proposed while looking at Foxy.
"And what ? We don't have more animatronics." The manager reminded him. "We need to build new ones, and that's expensive."
"Hey Mark !" A voice called from the Back room.
Marionette feared the worse. What were they going to do to the new ones ? What were they going to do to the old ones, above all ? Spring Bonnie was going to be brought at the new location, right ? She didn't know how to take that.
The manager and the rest of the employees went to the room and they found the new animatronics. Mark's facial expression went from surprise to astonishment. "Who ?" He asked, happier than ever.
All of the employees shruged and smiled at their boss. That was a new beginning. New animatronics, new location, new business.
