-You Can't-
Chapter 26: Return into Business
Mark took the keys in his hands, feeling that this day at Freddy's wasn't going to be the brightest one without understanding why. He felt like something was wrong. He had those kind of feelings sometimes without really thinking about them. Maybe it was because of his job. Stressful. Possible theory.
He pushed the doors when they were unlocked and dropped his jaw. In front of him were the corpses of Marionette and Freddy. They were visibly dead as blood was flowing from their wounds. Their death was recent. "WHAT DA HECK !?" He shouted, his friend quickly joining him and dropping his jaw too.
"What happened here ?" Josh asked while looking at the bodies.
"I will kill them, I assure you..."
"They'll probably kill you first, Mark." The brown haired guy said, following his friend who was making his way to the Back Room.
The manager groaned before opening, the last three animatronics looking at him at the same time. Mark watched them very angrily before yelling at Springtrap : "WHAT IN THE H*LL ARE YOU F*CKING DOING HERE !?"
"I guess you had a pretty bad day for shouting at me like that." The bunny replied, trying to avoid the question.
Josh entered the room at this moment, holding the manager back before he could harm any of the animatronics. "Hey, don't be so angry at them, Mark ! I'm sure they're not res-"
"I killed them."
"... -ponsible..." Josh finished, surprised by Fredbear's confession. It seemed that the bear wasn't really devastated by what he did, even if he wasn't very proud of them.
Mark's eyes widened and he escaped Josh's grip, slapping the bear tightly.
The animatronics beside them just lowered their heads, Springtrap telling Mark and Josh in a very low voice: "He did it for me..."
"WHAAAT !?" Mark reacted, looking angrily at the golden bunny. "YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE !? FIRST, YOU ESCAPE YOUR ROOM AND THEN YOU MANIPULATE FREDBEAR SO HE KILLS THE OTHER 'BOTS !?"
"He didn't say that-"
"SHUDDUP, FREDBEAR !" The manager yelled at the other animatronic, glancing back at Springtrap. "YOU'RE A REAL PIECE OF SH*T !"
"Some people say so." The bunny shruggled before coming towards Foxy, the animatronic seemingly disturbed by something. That's when Springtrap noticed Shadow Freddy, ready to attack Mark. "No, Fred !"
"He yelled at you and you let him go away without replying ?" The shadow animatronic asked, seemingly upset.
"It's fine, cut it out." The other answered, Foxy looking at them alternatively without saying a single word.
Shadow Freddy frowned and sighed, giving up. "I guess you're right..."
Foxy then smiled and looked at Springtrap, telling into his bunny ear: "He be lovin' ye, matey."
"Shut up, Foxy !" The other replied, blushing heavily. "You know I love Marionette !"
"What are ya-"
"Don't even dare, Fredbear !" Springtrap yelled at him before leaving the room, Josh looking at him as if he'd seen a ghost. Mark had left since he heard the animatronics talking to 'Fred' but Josh wanted to stay with the animatronics, to get to know them a bit more. He didn't really understand what happened but here he was, looking at Fredbear and Foxy and asking: "... the heck happened ?"
Fredbear waved his hand before going out, Foxy following the golden bear.
What was he going to do ? He just couldn't left the place to rot once again because those stupid and useless machines weren't able to take care of themselves a single week-end, could he ? No, he'd spent too much money into this reorganization. He couldn't give up this time.
Even if they were broken and cursed, as it was confirmed again that same day, Springtrap and Fredbear needed to be put into business again. Maybe Foxy could just stay in Pirate's Cove. Springtrap and his golden friend would be the mascots again. After all, weren't they the three favourite animatronics of the community ? The children loved them more than the others, by the way, and Puppet had always creeped them out.
He should try to do that. If that was successful, it would remain this way. Everyone would be happy. Children would see their favourites again and he would have money. Fair enough.
"Josh !" He called, his friend joining him as quickly as possible. "I just had a good idea !"
"Really ?"
"Yes ! Listen carefully... I'm going to reintroduce Spring and Goldie into business."
"What !? Hey man, what did you drink ?" Josh asked, knowing that this idea was nothing more than non-sense. "Springtrap and Goldie did so much bad things in the past !"
"That's why they're going to repair them." Mark answered, going on when he saw his friend's unsure gaze. "Children love them ! Everybody loves the gold ones, Josh !"
"If you say so, Mark..." The man whispered, passing his hand on his tired face. "What do you think about eating somewhere else today ? I need a break."
"Agree." The manager said happily.
I'll find you... And when I'll do... I'll kill you... I'll kill you slowly, you will suffer... I'll end you...
Springtrap opened his eyes, already knowing that he was having a nightmare again. He stood up, recognizing the place as being Fazbear's Fright. Since Fred brought him here the first time, he always had nightmares in this place. This time, it was slightly different.
I'll find you... I'll destroy you... I'll break your bones... I'll break your mind... I'll kill you...
He was quite sure that the voice he was hearing, echoing through the corridors, was Vincent's. He didn't know exactly why he was trying to speak with him but still. He looked all around him, seeing Vincent looking at him at the end of the hall. "Wha-what do you want... ?"
"I heard you wanted to go to the future with that... purple thing."
"Shadow Freddy." Springtrap corrected with a threatening voice, glancing at the man in purple.
"That's the same." Vincent replied, smiling widely. "You can't leave."
"Why so ?" The bunny asked, narrowing his eyes.
The man smiled creepily before taking in his hands an axe, running towards him. "I'll kill you before !"
Springtrap's eyes widened but he couldn't defend himself.
He woke up with a shout, sweating and having difficulties to breathe. He inhaled deeply but his heart was beating too fast. He tried to call someone but his voice died in his throat.
Panicked, he attempted to stand up but fell miserably, his legs flickering too much. He crowled to the door, banging at it and trying to reach the handle at the same time. He touched it and jumped a little, grabbing it and pushing it. The door unlocked and opened slightly, letting the bunny see the whole Dining Area and the other animatronics. Shadow Freddy turned to him and gasped, running to him and helping him to stand up. The golden animatronic smiled to the other, trying to walk and to breathe correctly. Foxy ran towards them, along with Fredbear, and Springtrap fainted.
A piece of paper with a P written on it fell from his hand. The three others just stared at each other, understanding what was going on. Fred held Springtrap closer to him, tears running down his cheeks as he feared the future.
'P' meant Purple Guy, of course. And the fact that Spring had it in his hand also meant that he was attempting to harm him.
But also that he entered the pizzeria while they were here. He could only be two persons.
The only two who entered the pizzeria.
Mark or Josh.
Plushtrap was walking through the restaurant, near the Office, when he heard someone screaming without knowing where it came from. It was probably Springtrap, and this one was yelling very loudly at someone. He couldn't really hear what it said.
It seemed like he was crying for help. He was shouting, as clearly as Plushtrap could hear: "PUT ME DOWN !"
