Hallo. Well, so far I've done good-ish on my updating schedule. If you miss out the fact I was supposed to update Out of Luck on Friday as well as this, but oh well. Hopefully I'll get better.
Also, I might not be able to update AT ALL in the next 2 weeks bc I have exams at school, so don't expect much. Maybe I'll get something up on the week-ends but it might not be the stories that are supposed to be updated on them days. So yeah, thought I'd let you know :)

Chapter 14
Night 4: Don't Let Me Down
Midnight soon came for the four remaining boys, and the next thing they knew they were already checking the camera's for the moving animatronics and waiting on the fourth phone call from the phone guy who's been calling them for the past few nights.
They were still going with the same process they had, regardless if Rocky is dead or not. Luke was still watching out for Chica – mainly because he knows Ashton is supposed to be killed by her, and maybe if he keeps an eye on her she won't kill him – Ross was still watching Freddy, Brad was still watching Bonnie and Ashton didn't know whether to keep an eye on Foxy or watch the camera's. Or do both.
Brad was already looking at the camera's, and it was nearly 12:20 a.m. Bonnie had already left the stage. Suddenly the screen went static and Brad shut the laptop down, seeing they were already on 90%.
It appeared that not only did the animatronics get more active as the nights progressed, but the power also went down quicker too.
He knew this meant that either Chica or Freddy had left the stage, meaning that Brad and Luke or Ross were going to have to leave. As Brad got up to leave, without saying a single word, the phone started ringing. Ross looked at everyone to see who was going to answer, but nobody appeared to be doing so. Ross stood up and pressed answer, so that it was on loud speaker.
"Hello, hello? Hey! Hey, wow, day 4... I knew you could do it..." The boys all glanced at one another, not liking the uncertainty and nerves that was in the man's voice.
"Uh, hey, listen. I—I may not be around to send you a message tomorrow," Suddenly, on the other end of the phone, there was the sound of someone, or something, knocking on a heavy door. It was obviously the security rooms metal doors. Meaning Foxy was trying to get in to him.
Not now, obviously, because this is a pre-recorded message from last week. But the problem is, they might have been told these pre-recorded messages were from last week, but they might not be.
"It's—It's been a bad night here for me. Um, I-I'm kinda glad that I recorded my messages for you," The phone guy cleared his throat "uh, when I did."
"He doesn't sound good..." Luke said, looking at the others as there was a small pause on the phone. This wasn't making Luke feel any better about tonight and tomorrow night. It was making him feel ten times worse.
"Uh, hey, do me a favour?" Again, there was the sound of Foxy hitting the metal door to the security room on the other side of the phone, which was making them worry for what was about to happen next to the phone guy "maybe sometime, uh, you could check inside those suits in the back room?" The sound of the metal being banged was heard once more.
At least there was one thing they've done for the phone guy. Looked inside the suits. It's just a shame they weren't going to be able to tell him in person, if this phone call was heading where they thought it was going.
"I'm gonna try to hold out until someone checks. Maybe it won't be so bad," bang, bang "uh, I-I-I-I always wondered what was in all those empty heads back there."
Suddenly, the sound of the Toreador March jingle was heard in the background of the phone call.
"You know—" Then, the sound of painful moaning could be heard from Bonnie or maybe Chica "Oh no—" The moaning sound was followed by a screech, obviously from the animatronics attacking him, and then the sound of the phone line going dead.
Ashton nearly threw the phone "What the hell! Did he die?!"
Brad put the phone back in the position it was supposed to be before Ashton had harshly moved it across the desk "I-I don't... I'm assuming so..." Brad scratched the back of his head and shrugged "guess we can expect no more phone calls from him tomorrow..."
Ross stood up from where he sat on the floor, turning his flash light on and off to make sure it was still working "Has everyone got their walkie-talkie and torch?" Ross asked, everyone showed their's. Rocky's was still hidden in the desk draws.
Everyone held their's up and made sure they were still working and hadn't ran out of battery. Hopefully the batteries that were inside the walkie-talkies and torches would last them till at least tomorrow night.
Luke wiped his eyes, feeling slightly tired "I guess I better get going." He pressed the light to the right hand side door and nearly dropped everything in his hand when he saw Chica stood there. He let out a small scream and hit the button that shut the door. "I guess I'm staying." Luke said, now leaning against the closed metal door and breathing heavily from the scare "Jesus Christ, she's really active tonight! And it's not even 1 a.m. yet!" Luke came away from the door.
Brad lifted up the camera's to find Bonnie and where he had got to, because he wasn't on the stage when he had checked last. He switched the camera over to the Backstage one and he jumped when he saw Bonnie was right up against the camera, just so you could only see his face almost like he was looking directly at you. His mouth was hung open slightly, and there were little white lights in his pitch black eyes, which was more than likely a reflection.
Brad closed the laptop after taking a glance at their remaining power. 85%. This was not good. The power was going down too much. Normally they're on 80 something per cent after 1 a.m. Not almost 12:30 a.m.
Luke faced the closed metal door, opening it back up and switching on the light to see Chica was still stood there "Dammit!" Luke shouted, shutting the door again. He faced the boys "She wants something or someone and she is not leaving until she gets it! I swear!"
Ross automatically glanced at Ashton, and he returned the glance to Ross. They knew who Chica wanted. It wasn't Luke she wanted, it wasn't Brad and neither was it Ross. She wanted Ashton.
"Who are you looking out for, Ashton?" Brad asked, about to leave through the left hand side door to begin watching out for Bonnie for the night. Even though Brad was a complete wuss about looking out for Bonnie when he had first started, he feels more confident and better about it. He doesn't know if it's a good or a bad thing. Because from what he's saw so far and figured out...
The bravest and the most confident go first.
Ashton shrugged "I don't know. Maybe I'll stay and watch the camera's. I'll focus on Foxy after what he did yesterday. As soon as he's not where he's supposed to be, I'm shutting them doors."
"Are you sure you're going to be okay?" Luke asked "because I think all of the animatronics are heading for the security office... At least from what I've worked out these past few nights. Whoever they find in the security office and if they're not quick, they're going to kill. It's obvious."
"Good thing I have fast reactions then isn't it." Ashton said with a shrug, sitting down in the office chair. "I think you should all get going before you lose who you're supposed to be looking for. Luke, I think you better take the long way round to Chica. I don't think she's going anywhere." he turned away from them all, feeling nervous.
Ashton is supposed to die by Chica, and it looked like it was coming true. But as long as Luke tried to keep her away from the office, he should be fine. Luke's never let him down before, and Ashton doesn't think he's going to let him down on something as serious as this.
Luke took Ashton's suggestion and went round the long way, but he walked with Ross and Brad seen as though they were heading in near enough the same direction. Brad was heading Backstage, if Bonnie hadn't moved and more than likely he had.
They were all halfway to the dining room, walking very slowly and quietly. Adding the parts from when they heard slow, heavy footsteps and stopped because they thought Bonnie and Foxy were coming. But they checked the camera's quickly before they left, and Foxy hadn't left Pirate Cove yet. He was only sticking his head outside of the curtain.
"Do you think we're going to make it to tomorrow night?" Brad asked, breaking the silence as they walked. That questioned caused Ross and Luke to look at him like he had spoken a foreign language. "What? It's a genuine question. Rocky was the bravest out of all of us, yet he got took down so easily. What does that mean for us? Because no offence, none of us were as near as confident as he was about doing this. He wasn't even bothered. He barely flinched every time something moved or was at the door."
"He's got a point..." Ross said, starting to think about it.
Luke let out a soft laugh "God, Brad. You're such a wuss. None of us are as scared as you are."
Brad scoffed "What? Does that mean I'm gonna live then? Just cos I'm a wuss."
Ross shrugged "Maybe... who knows."
"Maybe you'll die of a heart attack rather than by an animatronic." Luke said, joking slightly.
The boys all turned the corner of the upcoming hallway but stopped when they saw the entrance to Pirate Cove, where Foxy was. "W-we need to be quiet, because... if he hears us... we're gone. Just like Rocky..." Brad said, beginning to whisper.
"Yeah, like we didn't know that already." Luke whispered as they began to walk slowly and carefully down the hallway.
The boys kept on looking left and right, as well as behind them, as they felt themselves becoming more and more paranoid the closer they got to Pirate Cove. All of them stopped when they had got to the entrance of the room. Ross, seen as though he was in front, looked into the room but slowly peering his head round the corner, and he immediately pulled it back out again when he saw Foxy was outside of his curtain. Meaning, he was ready to run.
"We're going to have to be very, very careful... he's out of his curtain, meaning he could leave any minute now. I don't know how we're going to get passed him without getting caught..." Ross whispered.
Brad groaned "We're gonna die..."
Luke stared at Brad bemused, not liking how he had so little faith in them. But then again it was Brad. Whilst Brad stared off into the hallway, Luke pinched Brad's sides and said 'boo' when he least expected it. Making Brad scream. He turned around and pushed Luke so hard that he lost his balance "You ass hole!"
Ross quickly moved out of the way because he didn't want to be the one to have Luke's whole body weight crush him. But that was a mistake because Luke fell through the entrance to Pirate Cove, which caused him to fall into a table and move it.
Everything in Ross and Brad's worlds froze because they knew that got Foxy's attention.
Luke hissed in pain, as his ankle had rolled as he fell and it really, really hurt. He sat up straight and rubbed it. "Luke, get the fuck up and run!" Ross said, seeing Foxy turning his head towards them.
Luke was confused for a moment, but he heard footsteps in the room and remembered Foxy. Suddenly Luke didn't care if his ankle was in pain, he got up from the floor and ran out of the room as fast as he could on a now, obviously, sprained ankle.
When Luke was out of the room, Foxy ran from where he was straight at the boys and they all screamed or shouted in some way. Brad ran in the direction of the dining room, hoping Foxy wouldn't follow him, and Ross grabbed Luke by the arm and pulled him in the direction of the security room, ignoring Luke's hisses of pain from his ankle.
Unfortunately, Foxy chose to follow Ross and Luke.
"C'mon, Luke!" Ross shouted, now having let go of him and he had fallen behind by a lot.
Luke ran as best as he could and stopped as he came up to the corner of the hallway, holding onto the wall to give his ankle a rest for a couple of seconds. Ross was at the far end of the hallway waiting for Luke, he didn't know whether to go down and help Luke or have faith that Luke would make it on his own. He shined his torch down the hallway so he could see Luke and if Foxy was about to come round the corner.
Luke felt the pain in his ankle begin to subside. He let go of the wall and went to go to run towards Ross, but it was too late. Foxy had caught up.
"LUKE!" Ross shouted louder than he ever has done in his entire life.
Ashton turned his head to the left hand side door, hearing Ross shouting Luke's name echo throughout the whole building. Chica had left the outside of the security room, meaning both doors were open now. He didn't dare check the camera's because it wasn't far from 1 a.m. and the power was at 79%. All he did was pop his head out of the left hand side door, shined his torch down and saw the coast was clear.
But where the hell were Ross and Luke and why was Ross shouting Luke's name like that for?
Ross darted down the hallway as soon as he saw Foxy's shadow about to turn around the corner. Luke became confused as to why Ross had shouted his name like that and why he was running at him like he was about to rugby tackle him to the ground.
Luke turned around to look behind him and he pressed himself against the wall when he saw Foxy coming straight at him. Luke shut his eyes and screamed in pain when Foxy swiped at him with his hook, he crumpled to the floor and when Ross got to him he pushed Foxy away with all his strength as best as he could before picking Luke up completely off the floor and began to run as fast as he could towards the security room.
He entered the West Hall corner, seeing the door open to the security office "ASHTON GET READY TO SHUT THE DOOR!" Ross shouted.
Ashton got up off his chair and looked outside of the room, seeing Ross coming down the hallway with Luke in his arms "Luke..?" Ashton asked. As soon as Ross entered the room, Ashton shut the door so whatever was following him wouldn't get in.
Ross put Luke down on the floor and jumped when he heard Freddy's deep laughter come from somewhere in the building. "What the hell happened?!" Ashton asked, kneeling down next to Luke on the floor.
Ross went over to the camera's and looked at them. He clicked on West Hall and saw Foxy running down the hallway, he shut the camera's off and soon enough Foxy was banging on the door wanting to get in. Ashton jumped up and away "What's that?" Ashton asked.
"That's Foxy. We were passing Pirate Cove and he came out and took a swipe at Luke when we were trying to run away..." Ross said. When the banging had stopped, he lifted up the camera's and clicked on Pirate Cove. Seeing Foxy had returned. He blinked a few times "Whoa... that was... that was quick..." he shook his head "Ashton, I'm gonna have to go find Brad, he's disappeared again. I didn't see where he went. More importantly, I'm gonna have to find Freddy because he's on the loose now."
Ashton nodded "It's fine. I'll look after Luke."
Ross nodded, patting Luke on the shoulder before exiting the room the way he had came.
Ashton put his hand on Luke's shoulder "Are you alright?" Ashton asked.
Luke breathed heavily, sitting up as best as he could "I-I'm fine. I'm just... it hurts a lot..." he flung his head back.
"What hurts?"
"My side..."
Ashton put his hands on the bottom of Luke's shirt and began to roll it up slowly and gently, where it revealed a gash from where Foxy had swiped at him. "Oh my, God..." Ashton said, seeing how deep it was and how much it was bleeding. He grabbed Luke's hand and put it on top of his wound before pressing his own hands down on top to apply pressure to the wound to stop it from bleeding "We're gonna have to find something to stop that from bleeding otherwise you'll bleed to death."
Luke turned his head, looking for something in the room but there was no first aid kits or anything. Not that a plaster or a bandage would help a gash. He looked down, seeing if there was any part of his clothes he could rip but there wasn't. Luke looked up at Ashton "Your bandana would work..." He said, staring at the bandana wrapped around Ashton's head.
Ashton sighed, beginning to take it off his head "You know, it's a good thing you're my best friend and I love you..." he unravelled the bandana so that it was just one big line, and hopefully it would fit around Luke's waist. Bandanna's can be big sometimes.
Ashton only just managed to fit it around Luke's waist and tie it. Hopefully it would work and slow down the bleeding. "I'd keep your hand on where you're bleeding though..." Ashton said, putting Luke's hand back on top of the covered wound. He stood up from the floor and checked the time.
1 a.m.
Ashton scratched his head "Well... Welcome to the life of watching the camera's. I suppose two is better than one, right?" he asked with a small laugh.
Luke would have laughed too, but he couldn't. Ashton was missing something important, and even though Luke didn't want him to go and do it, he had to otherwise Ross would have a surprise death or better yet, someone else would.
"Ashton..." Luke said, Ashton turned his head to him "Chica..."
Ashton's face fell, forgetting for a moment that Luke was the one looking out for Chica and that someone would need to watch out for his animatronic in place of Luke. Especially if he's hurt. And because Ross had gone looking for Freddy and Brad, and Brad had disappeared running away from Foxy, Ashton had to be the one to look out for her.
He took a step back and sat down in the security office chair. Luke frowned "I'm sorry, Ashton..." Luke said, feeling upset that he had let Ashton down. Ashton had told him yesterday Chica is the one who is supposed to kill Ashton by the time the five nights is over. Luke thought by him watching Chica, he would be able to avoid Ashton's death somehow.
But now it looked like it wasn't going to be possible. Unless Ashton was really, really careful.
Ashton shook his head "I-it's not your fault... its my own. I shouldn't have sent you to go the long way round..."
Luke moved a little from where he sat "Listen, you can stay and watch the camera's. I'll still go and look for Chica, it'll be difficult but I know off by heart where she always is. That makes it easier for me."
Ashton shook his head "No, Luke. You're hurt. That makes you weaker than you were before. If she see's you and begins to chase you, you won't get very far and she'll catch you. I'd rather I, who has a chance of actually getting away from her when being chased, do it than you who doesn't stand a chance."
"How do you have a chance of surviving her when she's meant to kill you?"
Ashton fell silent.
"Ashton, please. Let me go. You have a little brother and sister at home. I don't."
Ashton picked up the laptop and put it down on Luke's lap from where he sat on the floor "If you find Chica before I do, let me know—"
"—Ashton—"
"—and be careful on the power. We're running low," he put Luke's walkie-talkie in his hand and smiled at him weakly "I'll be fine, I promise. I stand a better chance of survival if you look out for her on the camera's too. I'm depending on you as well as myself to keep me safe. Please don't let me down Luke..."
Luke didn't know what to say, he didn't want to make a promise to someone that he was 50/50 on being able to keep. He breathed deeply and nodded "I'll try. I promise."
Ashton smiled at him and grabbed his walkie-talkie and torch quickly before heading out of the door on the right hand side to search for Chica.
At least Ashton and Luke now had a fair idea on how the night was going to end and could be prepared for it to happen.
