Chapter 3: Re-Birth

Disclaimer: I do not own Five Nights at Freddy's. This chapter converts back into Josh's view, looking at things while being reborn into a strange body. Don't forget to review, and enjoy!

Pain. Never ending pain. I am screaming for eternity, going over all of my worst fears in my head. The tall man with long fingers and no feet I saw at the market when I was two. The clown that came to my fifth birthday party with the white mask, the purple tears and the open, black mouth. My brother, who always dresses in a jumper with white buttons and stripes on the sleeves...

I feel the pain sculpting my body into an inhuman form and all I can hear is the soft ringing in my ears reminding me why I'm here...

Suddenly the pain stops. I open my eyes. I seem to be in a box. I reach up to see if I can open the lid but seeing my hand makes me do a double-take. They are black and claw-like, and I notice my fingers are very long. I look down at myself. I can tell that I am much taller than before, and I am wearing some sort of black onesie with white buttons and white stripes on the wrists and ankles. But the most terrifying thing about my new body is that where my feet should be are just black stumps.

I close my eyes and try to piece everything together. I was being tortured by my brother. He tried to make me kiss Fredbear. My head went in his mouth. Then the pain turned me into an inhuman form with no feet? I am confused, so I try to figure out where I am. I use a long, black, claw-like finger to open the lid of the box. I realise I am in some sort of present, so I get out. My stumps don't touch the ground; instead of walking I realise I can now hover around. I am still in Fredbear's Diner, probably the same place where I got bitten, but the lights are turned off, and there are no people. It must be night. I wondered how long I had been in that present...

Suddenly, I hear footsteps. I am given only one second to decide what to do; I clamber back inside the present.

"...So after that nasty business with Fredbear biting that child, I'm afraid we will need to shut down this premises." Said a deep voice.

"I understand," said a less deep voice. "At least I have my other restaurant a few miles away from here..."

"Are you sure Mr Fazzy?" A name which I recognised as the owner of Fredbear's Diner. "We builders wouldn't want to get in your way." Builders? I think. Are they going to demolish the building? With me inside it?

"No it's fine." Mr Fazzy said. "I'll use the money I already have to get some new animatronics and make my other location a bigger priority. I'll have all of this stuff moved there."

I heaved a sigh of relief. I'd be safe in this "other location" as long as no one looks inside here as I am getting moved.

"If you don't mind me asking sir, what is in the present?" The builder asked. I froze.

"Oh that? I was going to make a third animatronic and that was going to be its home, but I ran out of money fast and I never got round to it." Mr Fazzy replied.

"That's a shame," the builder said. Suddenly the lid opened and a round, bearded face with a hard hat was staring at me!

"It looks like there's just enough room for an animatronic in here,"

I was confused, could he not see me? I lift up a claw/hand and wave it energetically in front of his face. He doesn't blink, look around or even react! I frown, confused. Suddenly, a happy face with a moustache and hat appeared too!

"I know," the one with a moustache said sadly. They both stayed there for a moment, then the builder left. "Come on Mr Fazzy," he called. "I'll arrange for a moving van to move all this stuff to your new location. What's it called?"

Mr Fazzy sighed, closed my lid and walked away, saying

"Freddy Fazbear's Pizza Place."
