{ Gold }

After breakfast, Gold retreated to his room and dug out some mangas from under the bed. He selected Fullmetal Alchemist and climbed up to the top bunk where he flopped down on his stomach and began to read. It was nice and quiet, until raised voices from the yard reached his ears. It sounded like Chica and Bonnie were fighting.

Strange, thought Gold. I've never seen them fight before.

Curious, he got up and set the manga down, climbing down from the top bunk and walking out into the living room. Mari and Foxy were on the couch playing Super Smash Bros U. When Gold walked through the living room and into the kitchen, he saw that Chica had come back inside. She was telling Freddy, Mike, and Jenny what had happened.

"-And she denied it," Chica was saying. Her face was flushed and she had tears in her eyes. She contrantly kept messing with her hair, obviously distressed.

"What happened?" Gold asked, sitting down at the bar and facing the other four.

"Bonnie texted Chica a bunch of crap about her weight, and then denied it, despite the fact she was caught red-handed," Freddy explained, casting an angry glance out into the yard where Bonnie stood still as a stature, glaring at the phone in her hand.

"Huh," Gold said, shaking his head. "That doesn't sound like Bonnie at all."

"I know," Chica said. Her voice was a bit hoarse, probably from her screaming. "But she said it. I don't know why. I thought she was my best friend."

Gold nodded. He was going to get to the bottom of this. He silently slid down from the bar and out the back door. Bonnie's electric green eyes swept up and met Gold's. They were full of malice, hatred, and anger. "What do you want?" She asked in a dark voice. She hardly moved, aside from the occasional necessary blink.

"I wanted to see what's going on," Gold replied. "Something about you sending Chica mean messages?"

Bonnie was suddenly in front of him. Although she was shorter than he was, she was extremely intimidating. "I didn't send the messages," she snarled in his face, bristling.

Gold backed up and put his hands up for defense. "Okay, okay," he said. He had never seen her more angry. "Well, if you didn't send them, who did?"

"Jenny," Bonnie spat out the name like it was poison. She then explained to Gold all that had happened, including how she speculated Jenny was out to get her.

"Why?" Gold asked when she finished. He believed her, Bonnie never lied, but he found it surprising that someone as nice as Jenny would do such a thing. She was so hot and curvy and-

Gold stopped himself. Thinking like that was not appropriate in this situation.

"That's what I'm trying to figure out," Bonnie said. She was leaning against one of the trees in the yard, staring up at the branches. She lowered her head and her eyes met his again. "I need to somehow expose her. I need to save Mike from her. I need to get rid of her. Will you help me?"

Gold grinned. "Certainly, Bon," he said with a dark chuckle. Incredibly sexy or not, Gold loved busting people. "What's your plan?"

Bonnie grinned. "Well, I've been thinking for a good ten minutes, so I think I got one. I'll get her alone, maybe I'll invite her out to dinner, just the two of us, saying it's for getting to know each other better or some dumb crap. I'll hide a tape recorder in my pocket, and when she starts insulting me, it'll catch it all."

"How do you know she'll insult you?" Gold asked, crossing his arms.

"Every time we've been alone she's insulted me. With the exception of the time she gave me my phone back in the yard."

Gold nodded, taking it all in. A large smile appeared on his face. "Sounds great. And if you want, I can get the audio recording to play directly to my phone or something, so the others can listen in."

"Wonderful," Bonnie replied. "Jenny and Mike leave tomomorrow afternoon, so I should probably go ask her now, it's nearly four."

"Alright. While you go ask her I'll hook up the tape recorder to Freddy's phone or something," Gold said. They both went back inside. Chica, Mike, Foxy, and Mari were all on the couch playing Wii U by now. Jenny wasn't in the kitchen, so Bonnie went to her room to see if she was there.

Meanwhile, Gold approached Freddy, who was munching on some celery and looking at his phone. "Hey, Fred," he whispered.

Freddy looked up, his mouth full of celery. "Mmph?" he muffled.

"Bonnie and Jenny are going out to eat. I need your phone to hook it up to Bonnie's tape recorder. You know, the one she got from law school?" Gold explained, keeping his voice low so nobody could hear it.

Freddy knit his eyebrows and did not move.

Gold sighed. "Trust me, little bro."

Freddy warily handed him the phone. He shoved it in his pocket as Bonnie came out of the master bedroom. Bonnie handed him the tape recorder. "Here's the recorder, Gold." she said with a smile. "Jenny's getting ready."

"Thanks," Gold replied, then went to work. It only took him a few minutes and she stuffed the recorder in her hoodie pocket just as Jenny was coming out of the bedroom.

"Are you ready, Bonnie?" Jenny asked in a sweet voice.

Bonnie better be right about this, Gold thought. If you ask me, she seems pretty innocent.

As soon as they left and the front door closed, Gold dashed into the living room and turned the TV off, earning a few shouts in protest from the people in the living room.

"Calm down, guys," Gold said commandingly. "This is important. I know all of you think Jenny is nice and sweet - especially you, Mike, since you're dating her-" Mike looked at the floor and frowned when he said this "-but I tell you she isn't. She's out to get Bonnie, and we're going to prove it. Bonnie has a tape recorder in her pocket. Everything she and Jenny say will be recorded and you'll hear it through Freddy's phone. You don't have to believe me just yet, but if you would just sit and listen to their converstions, I can prove to you she's bad."

His speech finished, he sat on the couch, setting the phone on the coffee table, the volume at max. Everyone sat still, their eyes on the phone, listening. The sounds of them getting in the car and starting it were heard, and then silence.

Gold chewed his lip. Hopefully a conversation would start up soon and they could prove Hot Jenny's bad intentions.
