Sorry that I haven't updated all week, I've been knee deep in revision, stress & tiredness bc I have 2 weeks solid of Mock Exams in school, so I don't think I'll update at all in them two weeks bc I'll be so tired. That, and Christmas is round the corner & it's the last Christmas I'll be spending with the people I've known since I was 3 years old. I'm 16 now, so... You can imagine how hard it's going to be when I have to say goodbye to them at the end of school. Yeah.

But an update on me playing Five Nights At Freddy's 2... I'm stuck on Night 5. It's so hard. I end up on 2/4 batteries on my flash light at 1 a.m. and it's like "I'm not gonna make it" then Foxy the fucking Pirate jumps out of nowhere & kills me, then BB the balloon vender ends up blocking my light so Foxy kills me again. Or Old Bonnie gets me. & idk why but Toy Chica (new Chica the chic) has a thing about standing at the end of my hallway & not going away until my flash light is about to die so then I die. Wonderful. Ooo! But I'll tell you something that happened in the game that I haven't seen happen to anybody I watch play it yet. Mangle (the female version of Foxy for those who don't know her actual name) killed me yesterday. That's a first. I thought she didn't kill you. Apparently she does. But, points for me! The Puppet (marionette in the jack in the box) hasn't killed me yet! Now that I've said that, I've probably jinxed myself. Ugh. The worst part is, Night 5 isn't the true ending to the game. Night 6 is. Do you honestly think I'll be able to cope with Night 6 if I can't even get to 4 a.m. on Night 5 without running out of flash light batteries? NOT to mention that there's TEN characters already in the game & their difficulty level gets put up by LOADS in Night 6. AND then an 11th character is added to it to make the plot interesting which is Golden Freddy. FFS. Why do I even bother with this game when all it does it give me nightmares & makes me want to cry? Idk. You guys play it & you'll understand.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter & that it makes up slightly for the last one! :D

Charlotte: Right, okay, listen. If you keep asking me to make him live, the chances are, I'm not gonna let him live. Okay? But who said I was gonna let him make it to the end of the story anyway? If you've read the story carefully, you'll know if he is or isn't.

Chapter 13
Lauren

Ross walked up the wooden steps that led up to the front door of Rocky's house, after only just surviving the third night at Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria. Ashton had returned to the Pizzeria at around 4:30 a.m. without Rocky. Meaning, he was truly gone and he was never coming back. Once the clock struck 6 a.m. the four boys all left as quick as they could through the back door, got into Ashton's car and began to head home.

But then they realised Rocky's parents don't know about Rocky. Quickly they all came to the decision that they should go to Rocky's first before heading home.

Ashton had parked his car around the corner from Rocky's house with Brad and Luke as they didn't want Ross and his parents to have an audience. The only reason Ross was telling them is because he's known Rocky and his parents all his life, basically. It would be better coming from him. That, and they don't think Rocky's parents would appreciate a – still – blood soaked Brad going up to the door and telling them.

Ross looked at the time on his phone, seeing it was almost 6:20 in the morning. Man, his parents were not going to appreciate this at all. He took a deep breath and shakily put his fist to the door, knocking on it a couple of times.

He waited at least thirty seconds for someone to come and answer, but nobody did. He knocked harder this time and rang the door bell before hearing loud and heavy thuds coming from inside the house, which was obviously someone coming down the stairs. "You better have a good reason for knocking on our door at—oh, hey Ross..." Rocky's Dad said, angrily at first but then he saw it was Ross.

Which confused him.

"What are you doing here so early in the morning?" Rocky's Dad asked confused, as Rocky's Mom slowly came into sight from behind, also confused "I thought you were all staying at your house last night..."

Ross nodded "Er... Yeah... we were..." He said, nervously, not being sure how to say this to them "but um... something happened."

"What do you mean..?" Rocky's Mom asked, feeling suspicious and beginning to slightly panic.

Ross moved shiftily "See. The thing is..." Ross said, trailing off. He didn't know whether or not to tell them the truth or make something up. The others hadn't told him what to say, they all assumed Ross would have something. He breathed deeply "Rocky's not coming home." Ross said.

"Why not?" His Dad asked.

Ross shut his eyes, starting to get upset "Because he's dead," Ross said, then hearing his Mom gasp slightly and his Dad beginning to question Ross on why and how. Ross wiped his eyes, trying not to cry in front of them "He got killed. I wanna say last night, but it was only hours ago." his voice shook.

"H-how?" Rocky's Mom asked, close to tears.

"He got beat to death. But—but, it wasn't our fault, we couldn't do anything."

Brad had his head rested against the window in the back of the car, feeling tired and not knowing what to do with himself. The thought that Brad had Rocky's blood still smeared all over his clothes, and on the skin of his arms and face a bit, from falling on his dead body had completely left his mind. In fact, he wouldn't be surprised if he went home and forgot to take a shower and then his Mom would ask him why he's covered in blood, and it would all kick off.

The fact that they all had two more nights to do was ridiculous.

Their third night was hard, so they dread to think what the fourth and fifth night is going to bring for them.

Nobody had said a word to one another in the fifteen minutes Ross had been gone. Even when Ross returned to the car and scared them, nothing was said. Ashton just started up the engine of his car and he began to drop them off home one by one. First Luke, then Brad and finally Ross.

"See you tonight." Ashton said.

Ross sighed, nodding "Why? Why do we have to continue?" Ross asked.

"Honestly, if Rocky had survived the third night I would say, lets stop. But he's dead. It's not fair if we say 'let's stop now' when we could have before he died. Sure, he would like us to survive, but if we don't continue it's not fair to him when you think about it."

Ross nodded, again, seeing what Ashton meant. It was true. It wasn't fair to Rocky if they stopped continuing the five nights when they could have when Rocky felt like he wanted to. No doubt Rocky did feel like he wanted to stop but didn't say. They were doing it for him, not for themselves or the money they got when they complete the five nights. For Rocky.

Ross opened up the passenger door and got out, watching as Ashton drove away seconds later after the door was shut. He sighed and turned to face his house. His parents' cars were still on the drive, meaning they hadn't gone to work yet. Hopefully they wouldn't be up either because he doesn't want to give them all an explanation of why he's home so early when he told them he was staying at Brad's last night.

Although, they are going to have to be told about Rocky's death, so if they're up and questioning him, he'll say he's only just got back from the hospital and he wanted to come home.

Here goes nothing.

How the hours of each day this week were going by this fast, the boys had no clue.

It was almost 6:30 a.m. when they were getting home, and now it was 9 p.m. Merely three hours before they started their fourth night at the Pizzeria, and god only knows what the night had in store for them. Ashton did not like the feeling he was getting from it at all. But that probably has something to do with the fact that one of his best friends got murdered the night before.

He didn't bother packing a bag to make it seem like to his Mom and siblings he was staying at someone else's tonight. He couldn't even remember who's house he said he was staying at. His Mom was out but would be back before 9:30, which meant Harry and Lauren would be left alone for thirty minutes.

Ashton peaked into the living room and saw Harry watching some cartoons on TV contently, and he thinks Lauren's upstairs in her room. After last night, he knows this could be the last time he see's them. But he doesn't want to see it that way. Especially since if he gets heart felt and subtly says goodbye, he'd have done it for no reason if he lived.

Maybe tomorrow night if it seems like he's going to die.

He knows he's going to die anyway. Rocky got killed by Foxy like he was supposed to, meaning everyone else is now going to be killed by the animatronic they are supposed to. And in Ashton's case, Chica would be the one to kill him.

Ashton sighed and made his way to the front door.

"Ashton?"

Ashton turned around, seeing Lauren half way down the stairs. "Yeah..?" he asked.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm staying out for the night. Mom will be home in half an hour, don't worry." He said, with a reassuring smile.

Lauren stared at him, not being sure if he was telling the truth about staying out "Who's house?" Lauren asked.

Damn it Ashton thought to himself, as he couldn't remember who's house he had said "Brad's."

"You stayed at his on Monday and yesterday... and you said to Mom, Rocky's this morning."

Ashton cursed himself under his breath. "I know you're up to something, Ashton. Your my brother. I'm not stupid. You've been going out every night this week and I've caught you the last few nights getting in after 6 a.m. If you were really staying out, you wouldn't be back till later on in the day." Lauren said, suspicious.

Ashton shrugged "So? Change of plan this time."

"Don't lie to me, Ashton. You come home and you have this horrified look on your face. Especially this morning. You looked scarred. Now, don't lie to me. Where are you really going?"

"It's none of your business."

Lauren rolled her eyes "Oh, give it up, Ashton. You're going to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza restaurant and have been for the past few nights. I know. I've seen your texts to your friends and I overheard someone in the pizza restaurant this morning talking about you and your friends when I took Harry."

"If you already know where I'm going why are you asking?" Ashton asked, slightly irritated but keeping his voice down so Harry didn't hear and come in to see why his two older siblings were beginning to argue. Then he replayed what Lauren had said in his head. "Wait... why was someone talking about us staying back? More importantly, who?"

Lauren shrugged "Some guy. He looked like the manager. And they weren't saying much. I could barely hear them. All I heard was that Ross had a close call with Chica on your first night and that they felt sorry for Rocky because of last night. Then they went on to talk about who they thought would be next. After that there were these two little boys and a girl sat by themselves after playing with Freddy and his friends and the manager started talking to them, asking them if they liked the place and what not."

Samael. Why the hell was he talking to other employees about what they were doing? Unless they knew. But how does Samael know Rocky's dead? They didn't see him this morning to tell him. Unless there's the possibility that he watched the camera's from last night to find out what happened.

What a sick bastard.

Ashton scoffed, looking sick "Oh my god."

"Ashton... are you in danger doing whatever you're doing at the restaurant? Because... from your facial expression and the way that guy was talking, it sounds like you are..."

Ashton looked back over to Lauren, not knowing what to say to her. Of course he was in danger. But Ross cheated his death, so he doesn't know if it's possible for Ashton to cheat his. All he could do was shrug "I-I don't know... Yes... But... no at the same time. If I do things right I'm not."

"Then stop doing it and you won't be unsure if you're in danger or not."

Ashton shook his head "I can't. I have too."

"No you don't. You don't have to do anything. No one can force you into something that you don't want to do. Unless they have something against you. Does someone have something against you to be making you do this?" Lauren asked, with her arms folded and Ashton shook his head "exactly! So stop! They can't do anything!"

"No, Lauren, you don't understand. If I stop doing what I'm doing with Ross, Brad and Luke, it won't be fair on Rocky."

Lauren became confused "How will it not be fair on Rocky? I thought he was doing it too..."

Ashton looked down, not wanting to tell Lauren because it would only make her panic more "He got killed last night," he said, shakily and sadly making Lauren's eyes widen "he... he wasn't careful. Well, he was, but not enough. It should have been me. I was supposed to be where he was, but I made him swap places with me. Deep down, I knew he wanted to stop doing these five nights. Now that he's dead, if us four stop doing it... it's not fair. Especially since we could have stopped before he got killed."

"Wh-who killed him?"

Ashton shook his head "If I told you, you wouldn't believe me."

Lauren didn't want to ask him because it was only making her more scared than she already was for her brother "Please don't go."

"I have too!"

"No you don't! Nobody's making you! Who is making you?! Nobody! Only you. You're making yourself do it, Ashton and I can tell by the look on your face and in your eyes that you don't want to do this any more. It's true, and you know it."

Ashton fell silent, not bothering to respond to Lauren because she was right on one thing. He didn't want to do this any more, and neither did Ross, Brad or Luke.

Lauren shook her head slightly "All you have to do is realise it's you that's making you do this. It's you who's making yourself scarred, scared and horrified every morning when you come home. And once you realise this, you know you can stop, right? It's not difficult. All you have to do, is look at yourself in the mirror, and say the two words and it'll all hit you like a tun of bricks. It's not hard, Ashton."

Ashton was reluctant about what Lauren was saying. He didn't want it to be true. It wouldn't be fair on Rocky if they stopped, and Ashton had that drilled in his head. He took a deep breath "W-what... What two words?" Ashton asked, slightly confused.

"It's me," Lauren said "meaning 'it's me who's making me do this. It's me who's putting myself go through this. It's me'."

Ashton stared out Lauren for a moment, thinking about what she had said to him "I-I'll see you in the morning. Bye, Lauren." He said, quickly exiting out of the front door as quick as he could.

"Ashton!" Lauren called, but it was too late. Ashton was gone and out of the door.
