Fix You

Liam had again found himself standing outside Freddy's, but this time with his arms full/ of parts and his mind set with a different perspective. The place had been repainted since the original had started to fade and was now looking welcoming. The doors were rimmed in bright red, and the characters on the sign looked bright and inviting.

It had only been a little more than a week and a half, but his opinion of the pizzeria had taken a one eighty. He originally thought it was a boring dump where parents dropped their kids off to get them off of their hands. Now he thought he was a decent place that was fun for both the kids and the rest of the family.

His favorite part, though, had to be the pizza. It was the best in his mind and would argue to anyone that said otherwise.

He entered and started his way to the room that held the older robots. The manager gave him a small wave as he walked through, and Liam simply nodded his head; he'd already spoken to the manager about what he was doing. The reply he got was put, "As long as you aren't charging and doing it out of your own heart and pocket, it is fine."

The door was opened quickly with a rough push or his shoulder since it had been slightly opened upon request. Liam quickly set all his parts on the ground. He had brought everything he needed to fix the withereds up. It might take a while, but they would look good as new.

He frowned as he noticed Bonnie's face had fallen off, but recovered swiftly because he knew he had everything he needed to finalize the repair after he fixed the bunny's face again. He decided he would let his purple friend be awake this time though. Liam switched Bonnie on and waited patiently for him to fully wake up.

After he saw the red beaded eyes light up, Liam began to talk, "Good morning, Bonnie! I have lots of stuff to fix up you and your friends today. I am going to have to fix your face again though; it fell off. I have stronger reinforcements now so it will stay, but I need you to be awake this go around."

Bonnie mumbled a short okay as he watched Liam. The young mechanic got to work and placed the face on the bunny. He tightened screws here and there and occasionally asked Bonnie if it felt right.

Before long his face was fixed, and this time it was going to stay much better than before. Bonnie smiled at his human friend. His face felt perfect, and he looked forward to seeing his other friends fixed up.

"Thank you so much, Liam," Bonnie said as Liam went to his pile of parts. "We all are thankful for what you are doing for us."

"No problemo," Liam replied with a smile. "Now, do you want me to fix your arm first or fix Chica's hands? Either will take a while."

"Do Chica's hands first," he said. His chicken friend deserved the use of her hands. She never deserved to lose them. He would gladly wait to have his arm fixed so she could have something nice again. After all what was another few days?

The black haired boy nodded and walked over to Chica. His dark blue eyes stared sadly at her form. She was almost as bad as Bonnie, but he was going to fix her. Liam made a quick decision to turn her on and he heard her cervos start to run and gears click.

"Um," Bonnie mumbled worriedly.

Before he could get anything out of his mouth, Chica had woke up and pinned Liam. He was utterly surprised. The chicken was pinning him to the wall with her arms and her wide open jaw was very close to his face.

Liam blanched at what was happening. Terror took over him as he shook. He just wanted to help not be killed. He thought for a brief moment that maybe he should have stayed out of this and simply lazed around the dorm.

He felt her heavy metal body crushing his against the wall before all the weight abruptly lifted, and he fell dizzily to the floor. His pulse was still pounding in his ears, his heart was beating so fast it hurt. His breathing was jagged and sharp as his hand reached up to cradle his face.

Then he heard a loud but sweet and bubbly voice bounce off the walls of the small room. "Oh my gosh!" The yellow bird exclaimed. "I am sooooo sorry. I didn't mean to! I was just surprised and I'm sorry."

Liam was still trying to catch his breathe as he watched her. She was frantically darting around him and apologizing. If she wasn't doing this though, he would feel much less inclined to help fix her.

"I will do something to make it up to you. I promise you," she said with a firmness that sounded odd when paired with her bubbly voice. "I could get you as much pizza as you want. I can't exactly make it for you, but I'm teaching Chik how to be the best pizza chef in the world!"

Liam's ears seemed to tune in much more after he heard the word 'pizza' and Bonnie who had been standing back nervously while the short altercation occurred made a small comment, "But her pizza will never be as good as yours Chica."

Chica sighed, but held her handless arms up and playfully rolled her eyes at him before Liam butted in. "Oh. you can definitely make it up to me in pizza because by the end of today you won't need anyone to make pizza for you. You can make the best pizza ever yourself," he announced as he held what would soon be her hand for her lavender eyes to see.

He saw the excitement build in her eyes as he grabbed her arms and started to connect, disconnect and replace wires where her hands would be attached. She had thanked him multiple times and made more apologies and promises of pizza to which he would give her thumbs ups to. He at times was holding his new tools in his mouth as he worked.

A few hours later he had them wired perfectly to her systems and he said, "Alright, try moving your fingers."

Her eyes seemed to sparkle with joy as she flawlessly made her fingers dance and lightly smiled the best she could then said, "Spirit fingers! Thank you so much! You don't even understand how grateful I am. I will make you as much pizza as you want."

Liam chuckled softly then yawned. He had come from a class and was now pretty tired. The pizzeria would be closing soon by now, and he needed to get some rest. Despite helping the withered animatronics, he was still lazy and unmotivated in most other things. He required a lot of sleep and by using time to fix the robots, he lost most of his sleeping time.

"You look tired," Chica said stating the obvious and watching him with care. She really liked him.

"Yeah," he replied tiredly. "I've been busy lately. Need to sleep a bit more I guess. I might have to fix your jaw tomorrow if that's alright. I can try tonight if you really want me to"

She blinked at him. It surprised her how he was concerned about here while he was so tired that he look like he might fall to the floor at any given moment. No one had showed too much care for her or any of her friends since the toys were brought in. The toys weren't too bad to them, but they felt forgotten by the world. His concern for her feelings was refreshing. She saw why Bonnie liked him so much.

"No, no, no, no!" Chica said with a cheerful smile. "You mister need to get to your home and sleep so you don't fall asleep here."

"Alright," Liam yawned out whilst he got up and began to organize his things in the room. "I'm going to leave this here so I can use it tomorrow. I'll be here as soon as all my classes end."

The bunny and chicken both watched him as he moved sluggishly about then realized the time. It had flown by without them realizing and it was 11:54. Panic set in their red and purple eyes when they heard Foxy and Freddy activating. Liam wouldn't make it out by 12 if they had to acquaint those two with him.

"Hey, Liam," Bonnie said quickly as he appeared right beside Liam. "I'm going to carry you out since you have helped us so much today."

"Wha-" Liam was cut off when a large purple arm lifted him up over the bunny's furry fabric shoulder. He was being whisked away and moving fast through the pizzeria. It felt like he had barely been picked up for a second when his black sneakers met the floor again.

"Well," he mumbled slowly with surprise before opening the door, "that was odd, but thanks for the lift. Bye Bonnie."

"Goodbye," he replied with a wave before darting back to the parts room.

Foxy and Freddy were staring at Chica's hands as she told them how great Liam was and how she could now make pizza again. They were happy for her and very interested in meeting the boy who was willingly helping them.

"He must be quite the lad," Foxy mused as he looked over the parts Liam had brought in and held up a piece of fabric that look very similar to his own reddish fur.

"He is," Bonnie added. "We would have probably killed him if he stayed any later though. We should try to get him out of here sooner next time. I really don't want to accidentally kill him."

The others looked sadly at their troubled friend although they knew he was right. He would have been killed if he was still here and they got to him, but it would likely be Bonnie to reach him first as he was always the most active and most likely to jump to kill. They knew their control was not the best, but Bonnie's was awful. He would be so torn up if he murdered Liam, too.

The clock chimed loudly to signal it was 12 am and Freddy was the first to speak up, "So gang who wants to go after the night guard first?"
