Chapter 12

'The Marionette?' I thought as I looked down at the carving. 'Who the hell is the Marionette?'

I decided to inspect the box more for anything else that might be of interest. I shined my flashlight all around the box to see that it also had what looked to be a purple bow wrapped around it, not to mention the box seemed to be a darkish blue color.

'What the hell type of box is this?' I thought as I continued to inspect it.

I then came across what looked to be a lever on the side of it. The lever seemed to be shaped in a z and it was sticking out on the side of the box.

'Does this thing… wind up?' I wondered as I knelt down and grabbed the lever. I then motioned it forward but it felt loose. I continued to wind it but nothing happened.

'Must be broken…' I thought as I let go of lever and stood up.

I then looked towards the top of the box to see that there was a small gap in the middle of it. I then put my flashlight down on the ground and placed my fingers on either side of the crack. I then pulled and I managed to hoist the box open. I then picked up my flashlight off the ground and shined the light inside of the box.

The box carried what seemed to be the scattered pieces of a broken thin body. The body was black and its hands sprouted three thin, long, and pointed fingers. The torso of the body was very thin and it had three white buttons attached in a vertical pattern. The legs and arms of this thing were also very thin making it seem all the more disturbing. But the part that frightened me the most was that its head appeared to be blackish and missing its face, it also appeared to be beaten in.

'What the hell was this thing?' I thought as I picked up a piece of it.

I then heard the muffled 'THUMP' of metallic feet outside of the door a couple feet behind me. I froze whirled around to face the door.

'Shit!' I thought as I quickly placed the piece back into the box.

I then hastily closed the box and shut my flashlight off. I quickly and carefully walked in the darkness towards the faint outline of the door emitted from the light outside of it. Once I reached the door I placed my back against the wall a little ways to the left of the door. The 'THUMP' of an animatronic's feet got louder and I knew it wouldn't be to long until it entered the room through that door. I pressed my back against the wall as much as I could, my heart beating out of my chest as beads of sweat ran down my forehead. The footsteps started to get progressively louder until they sounded as if they were right outside the door.

The door was then swung open and the dim light from the outside light up the room just a bit. I looked down to see the shadow of an animatronic bear looming in the doorway. I didn't know if it would be Freddy, or the golden one, but I didn't really want to meet either of them at the time. I heard his robotic joints move and the brown head of Freddy poked through the door way. I pressed myself as far back against the wall as possible and I held my breath. The bear then walked into the room and peered around it, searching for anything of interest. I prayed he wouldn't look over towards me, because if he did it would be the end for me. But to my fortune the robotic bear didn't seem to notice me as he continued to walk into the room.

His eyes continued to scan the room, in a search for what I was assuming to be me. Freddy then started walking further into the room and I saw that I had a clear shot for the door. I took my chance and quickly bolted out the door.

But, as I made it out of the door I accidentally bumped it with my elbow, making a creaking sound emit from it as a result. I stopped dead in my tracks; I then slowly turned my head back towards the room to see if Freddy had heard the noise.

To my horror, Freddy was staring straight back at me. My blood turned to ice and I stood frozen in place, not able to move a muscle as my eyes locked with his. Freddy then took a step forward, the 'THUD' of his metallic foot echoed all throughout the room. Freddy then took another step forward and I returned to my senses. I then scrambled down the small hallway and reached the end of the stairs. I quickly grabbed the railing and frantically climbed the steps as I heard Freddy's robotic joints move as he pursued me. I knew I had little time before he caught up to me so I climbed the stairs as fast as I could.

I had almost made it to the top of the stairs, but I then tripped over one of the stairs due to my panicked state. I managed to grab the railing to prevent most of the fall, thought I did manage to bang my shin up against one of the metal stairs. I held my shin in pain as I propped myself up on the railing.

'Son of a bitch that hurt!' I thought as I cringed in pain.

I then looked down the stairs to see that Freddy was only a couple steps away from me. My pupils shrunk and I quickly limped up the stairs, trying to fight the pain. I managed to make it to the door on the top of the stairs and I swung it open. I then scrambled into backstage and shut the door behind me backing away from the door as I did so, panting.

'I need just a minute… hopefully he doesn't burst through that door too soon…' I thought as I put my hands on my knees, trying to catch my breath.

Suddenly, I heard a very low toned chuckle echo throughout the room. I froze at the noise, my heartbeat started to rise yet again as my eyes darted back and forth around the room.

'What the hell was that!?' I thought as I started to turn around.

I yelped a bit as I turned to see Freddy standing just a foot behind me. I quickly backpedaled into a wall, pressing my back against it as my eyes widened with fear. The bear chuckled in the same low tone as before and he picked up a spare Freddy head off one of the table next to him. He then slowly started to advance towards me and my heart stopped. Freddy then stopped mere inches away from me and my heart lurched. My eyes started to tear up as I trembled out of pure horror. I knew this was the end for me and I slumped down onto the floor as Freddy towered over me. Freddy then raised the spare head and I shut my eyes, preparing for the worse.

But it never came, I sat there crying and trembling with fear for about two minutes before I worked up the courage to open my eyes again. I looked up to see that Freddy was gone, and it was only me in the room, cowering against the wall.

'W-wha?' I thought as I looked around the room, sure my eyes were a bit blurry from the tears but I could see that there wasn't another soul around.

I sat there in my panicked and confused state for a while, my mind still trying to process what exactly happened in the past minute or so. I then managed to work up the will to stand up, I slowly rose from the floor using the wall as support.

'What… the hell just happened?' I thought, still trembling. I wiped my eyes of the tears and shook my head, trying to get over the fear and trauma. 'I… I have to get to the office.' I thought as I shakily made my way to the door, using the table for support.

I then stopped at the slightly propped open door leading out into the dining area. I peered out through the door, searching for any type of danger. I then spotted Chica out in the middle of the area; the moonlight shinned on her as she was staring up at the camera up near the stage.

'Okay… okay…' I thought as I fought to control my breathing. 'I just have to sneak past her… and I can make it to the office.' I then took deeps breaths and steadied my trembling body. 'I can do this.'

I then got down on my hands and knees while carefully opening the door, desperately trying for it not to make a sound. My shin had still hurt from my trip on the stairs but it wasn't anything crippling. I managed to prop the door open just enough for me to squeeze through. I crawled through the open door and peered around a bit. Making sure no other animatronics had made their way into the room. When I saw that the coast was clear I slowly and carefully crawled over to the hallway leading down to the office. I was about halfway to the entrance of the hallway until I heard the movement of robotic joints. I stopped dead in my tracks as my pupils shrunk.

'Shit!' I thought as I lifted my head up to peer over the tables. I looked to see that Chica was on to move, she was heading towards the stage and my heart skipped a beat.

'If she gets up there she could easily spot me!' I thought and I quickly scrambled underneath the table to my left.

'God I hope I didn't make too much noise.' I thought as I hid beneath the table.

Chica's footsteps echoed throughout the room and I trembled with fear, still not quite over the incident with Freddy that happened earlier.

'Please don't find me… please don't find me.' I prayed as I put my hands over my head and continued to listen to her footsteps. But to my fortune they seemed to be getting fainter. After a moment or two the footsteps sounded as if they were in another room. The whole room was silent after that, but I still hadn't worked up the courage to move just yet.

'It's alright Mike… the metallic bitch is gone… she's in a different room.' I told myself as I steadied my breathing. 'It's alright… it's alright…' I then shakily crawled towards the other end of the table. When I reached the end of the table I poked my head out from under it and scanned the room, making sure that the animatronic had left the room.

I then crawled out from under the table and slowly stood up to a crouching position, checking the rest of the room. When I saw that Chica had indeed left the room I stood up fully, though I still leaned down a bit, just in case an animatronic had entered the room and I needed to drop to the floor. I then crept down to the beginning of the hallway left of the office.

'Okay, I think I can calm down-' My thoughts were interrupted as I heard a low growling sound to my right. I froze and slowly turned my head to the direction of the noise. My heart stopped as I looked to see none other than Foxy poking his head out of the curtains to Pirate Cove. My eyes widened and I jumped backwards, away from Foxy.

'F*** not the FOX!' I thought out of panic, realizing that I had completely forgotten about the animatronic.

Foxy then emerged from Pirate Cove, still growling in his robotic and somewhat glitchy voice. He bared his teeth at me as he glared and I started to slowly back away from the metal beast.

'Please don't charge at me… please to god and all that his holy don't charge…' I prayed as I continued to back away at a snail's pace, not wanting to provoke the animatronic.

But Foxy opened his mouth and let out a terrifying 'SCREEEEEEEEEE!' as he charged, his hands outstretched towards me as he did so. My pupils shrunk and I quickly bolted down the hallway, away from Foxy. As I sprinted down the hallway I heard Foxy's robotic feet hit the ground not too far away from me. The pain in my shin started to return and I had to limp a bit in order to be able to stand while running. I then heard something swipe at me and I felt the wind of what I was assuming to be Foxy's hook behind me. That got more adrenaline within me and I ran/limped a bit faster. The door to the office was mere feet away and started to reach out towards it.

'Please please please please!' I thought as I reached out for the door, desperately trying to get further away from Foxy.

As soon as my arms were able to reach into the room I slammed my hand down on a button next to the door, praying for it to be the door button. I then dove into the room with my arms outstretched in order to break my fall. I heard the door descend above me and for a second, I thought I had pressed the button too early. But to my fortune I managed to get my whole body in the office before the door slammed shut. I landed on the ground safely and not even a second afterwards I heard a large 'BANG' outside the door and I assumed Foxy had smashed into it.

I then lay there, my stomach on the tile floor of the security office, my arms outstretched as I panted and stared blankly over at the wall to my right as I let my cheek rest on the ground. I was then startled by a 'BEEP' that echoed through the room. I quickly lifted my head up and searched around the room for the source of the noise. I heard the beep yet again and I slowly rose from the ground, still not quite sure where it came from. The beep went off again and my eyes landed upon the phone. I saw that the phone had a flashing light on it, and the text next to the light read "new message."

'Must be the message from the old security guard.' I thought as I hit the play button and walked over to my desk.

"Hello, hello? Hey, wow, day four, I knew you could do it." The messaged played.

'Yeah… sure you did.' I thought as I sat down in my chair by the desk. I looked at my clock to see it was 12:45. I then noticed I had 87% power and it had two power bars showing. I looked up at the shut security door to my left.

'I'm gonna need to open that.' I thought as I stood up to open it.

The recording went on. 'Uh… hey, listen, I may not be around to send you a message tomorrow.' I then heard some banging sounds during the recording which caught my attention. I jolted my hand back away from the door button, thinking that the banging had come from outside the door.

'What? Where!?' I thought as I sat back down in my chair and frantically looked around for the source of the banging.

' It's-It's been a bad night here for me. Um, I-I'm kinda that I recorded my messages for you' the security guard then cleared his throat. 'Uh, when I did. Uh… hey do me a favor.'

I then heard the banging noise again and quickly flipped on the light to the right hallway. But there wasn't an animatronic in sight. My eyes then drifted over to the phone. 'Is that coming from…?' I thought.

The recording continued. 'Maybe sometime, uh, could you check inside those suits in the back room?'

I then heard the banging again, but this time I knew it was coming from the recording.

'Oh… shit he's…' I thought as I started to feel uneasy.

'I'm gonna try and hold out until somebody checks. Maybe it won't be so bad.' The banging sound emitted from the recording yet again. 'Uh, I-I-I-I always wondered what was in all those empty heads back there.' I then heard Freddy's chime play in the background of the recording.

My eyes widened. 'No, no, no.' I thought. 'Son of a bitch no!'

'You know…' I then heard a raspy moan emit from the recording. 'Oh no-' The security guard was cut off when a loud and demonic 'AAAAAAHHHHHH!' sounded from the recording, then everything went silent.

Beads of sweat poured down my head as I listened to the last few seconds of what I was assuming to be the guard's life. I started to tremble as I realized something.

'He knew just about everything someone could know about this job… and yet even he didn't make it.' I thought as my fear and paranoia started to rise. 'I-if he can't make it… then how the hell am I supposed to?' I looked down at my computer to see I had 85% power left and that it was 12:50. I then started to calm myself a bit and took a deep breath. 'I can do this…' I thought as I ever so slowly opened the door to my left to conserve power and sat back down into my chair. 'I can do this…'

But little did I know there was a very long and very horrifying night ahead of me.

1:30 am

I had managed to make it through a half an hour with only Chica appearing at the door once or twice and Foxy poking his head out of Pirate Cove, though I still had a long way to go.

I flipped through the camera feeds, trying to pinpoint where all of the animatronics were. From what I could tell Chica was in the kitchen due to the noise emitting from "CAM 6", Foxy was just peeking his head out from the Cove, and Freddy was poking his head out of the woman's restroom.

But… I hadn't seen Sarah ever since she woke me up in the backstage room. That had me a little on edge, because I didn't know whether or not she was in control of the suit tonight… or if Bonnie was. I looked down at the battery bar to see that I had about 76% power left.

'Okay… I'm doing well so far…' I thought as I continued to flip through the camera feeds.

I then landed on "CAM 2A" and saw a dark figure looming in the hallway. It took me a moment until I realized that it was Bonnie. My heart started to race a bit as I stared at her.

'Please let it be Sarah, please let it be Sarah.' I thought as I flipped to the other feeds just in case.

I really wanted it to be Sarah, because I didn't want to have to deal with a forth animatronic hunting me, I had a difficult enough time just dealing with three.

I then checked on "CAM 2A" again and saw that Bonnie wasn't there anymore. A small wave of fear hit me and I quickly hit "CAM 2B" in a search to find her. Luckily she was right in plain view of the camera and I felt a bit relieved. I then looked out into the left hallway, knowing that just a wall was separating us.

I leaned forward a bit. "Sarah?" I called out.

There was no response and I started to fear that she may not be the one in control. I then looked down and froze up when I saw that Bonnie was no longer in view. I then quickly got up and pressed the light button to find the somewhat terrifying sight of Bonnie staring in.

"S-Sarah?" I asked in a fearful tone, hoping that she would reply.

But she didn't say a word, and as I looked into Bonnie's cold, emotionless eyes… I knew Sarah wasn't in control. I quickly smacked the door button and the door descended, emitting a 'CLANG' as it collided with the floor. I then sat back down in my chair, trembling a bit.

'Son of a bitch!' I thought. 'Why the hell can't I catch a break!?'

All I knew now was… this wasn't going to be a fun night.

4:00 am

This night was defiantly the most difficult night I had yet… all four animatronics had been showing up much more frequently than the three nights before. They had been eating away my power bit by bit and I was starting to get worried I wouldn't have enough to last the night. But thankfully they had been laying off of me for the past ten minutes or so, though I was still on edge.

I sat there, trembling with fear as I flipped through all of the feeds. Chica was visible in the right hallway by "CAM 4A", Bonnie was sitting in the janitors closet by "CAM 3", Foxy was outside of the Cove, getting ready to make a sprint for the office, and all I could see of Freddy was the two small lights of his eyes in the back of the dining area. I then looked down at the power bar to see I had 38% power left.

'It's okay, it's okay…' I thought, trying to calm myself. 'I just have to distribute 19% per hour… and I can make it.'

All was quite as a monitored the building, except for the increasingly annoying "Wrrrrrrrr" of the fan. My eye twitched a bit as I glared up at the fan, gritting my teeth.

'Damn fan… why the hell is it even in here? It hardly keeps this office cool!' I thought out of frustration as I looked back down at the computer.

I continued to flip through the camera feeds, until I saw that Chica had moved. I quickly searched for her through the feeds and saw that she was in plain sight of "CAM 4B".

'You just stay there you damn bird!' I thought as I glared at the computer.

The terror and insecurity was starting to twist my mind into a frustrated and angry state. Not to mention the heat of the office was increasing, adding more to my frustration.

Suddenly, I heard a very deep and demonic chuckle. I froze up as it echoed throughout the office, sending a shiver down my spine. I then looked down at the camera feed for "CAM 4B" again and saw nearly jumped out of my skin. Instead of Chica being in the view of the camera, there was the shadowed face of Freddy staring directly into the camera. His eyes stared directly into my soul and I felt my blood turn cold. But before I had time to think about Freddy, I realized something. My head jolted up from my computer and my eyes widened.

'Where the hell is the bird!?' I thought out of distress as I quickly stood up to check the hallway light.

I pressed the button for the light and it flickered on, revealing the terrifying sight of Chica staring straight at me through the window. I jumped a bit when I saw this and I quickly slammed the door button. The door slammed shut, signaling my temporary safety from the animatronics. I sat back down in my chair, trembling a bit with fear.

'It's okay Mike… they can't get in.' I thought, trying to calm myself yet again on this terror filled night.

But, right after I thought that I heard the somewhat faint noise of metal footsteps rapidly approaching. My heart stopped as my pupils shrank, I knew what that sound was.

'The FOX!' I thought as I quickly got up and slammed my hand down on the door button.

The door plummeted down and slammed shut. But hardly a second afterwards had I heard the sound of Foxy assaulting the door with his fist and raking his hook across it. I sat there trembling, knowing that my power was being drained quickly from both the doors being shut. I then hesitantly turned on the light for the right hallway and saw that Chica was still there.

'Damn it! Just go away!' I thought as I halfheartedly glared at the bird. I then turned the light off and sat back down in my chair, praying that the animatronics would just leave.

I then noticed that all I could hear was the increasingly annoying sound of the fan. I then flipped to "CAM 1C" on my monitor and saw that Pirate Cove's curtains were closed once again. I felt a small wave of relief wash over me as I pressed the button to the left hallway's door. The door ascended and I was just about to sit back down in my chair when I thought that I should check the light, just in case. I then hit the light for the hallway and jumped back.

Bonnie was right outside, and her lifeless eyes were staring straight at me. I quickly shut the door again and sat back down, hugging myself in a vain attempt to remain calm. I then looked down at the power bar to see that I had 35% power left.

'Damn it!' I thought. 'I'm losing too much power!'

I then pressed the light button for the right hallway and my heart sank when I saw that Chica was still there, I then pressed the light button for the left hallway and saw that the shadow of Bonnie was still showing. I then turned both of the lights off to conserve as much power as possible.

'God damn it!' I thought as I sat back down in the office chair. 'If they don't leave soon I'm not going to have enough power to last the night!'

Fear and anxiety started to rise in my body as I sat there. I prayed for them to leave and started to continuously check the lights to see if they left. Minutes passed and neither of the animatronics moved from their position outside the doors. Frustration started to well up inside of me as I knew they were toying with me, not to mention the heat of the office and the very annoying fan.

'Why the f*** won't these bastards go away!' I thought as I continuously checked the lights.

Each time I saw the animatronics out in the hallway, my frustration and fear grew. Knowing that there wasn't a single thing I could do about it was what frustrated me the most. After two or three minutes passed, I looked down at the percentage to see it had dropped to 34%.

When I saw that number, something inside of me snapped. I rose from my chair and stomped over to the fan on the desk. I then picked it up and ripped the plug out of the wall by yanking on the fan. I then threw the fan to the ground and stopped on it furiously. I continued to do this out of a fit of rage, not wanting to have to put up with annoying sound that emitted from the fan any longer.

'Shut up, shut up, SHUT UP!' I thought as I assaulted the fan with the bottom of my foot, debris of it flying everywhere as a result.

I then ceased my attack, panting as sweat ran down my forehead. I lifted up my somewhat sore foot from the rubble of the fan and I stormed over to the left door. I then pressed the light, expecting to see the shadow of Bonnie.

But to my surprise there was no shadow at all. I stared suspiciously at the door as I pressed the button to open it. The light still shinned in the hallway but Bonnie was nowhere to be seen. I turned off the hallway light a bit surprised that Bonnie had left. Curious I walked over the right hallway and pressed the door light. To my fortune, Chica was also nowhere in sight. I then pressed the door button and the door ascended, showing that there wasn't an animatronic in sight.

I shut off the hallway light and sat back down in the office chair, flipping through the camera feeds as I did so. I was shocked to see that every animatronic had backed off. Bonnie was now looming in the doorway backstage, Chica was in the restroom area, Foxy wasn't showing his face in Pirate Cove, and Freddy's tune was playing in the kitchen signaling that he was there.

'Oh thank god…' I thought as I took a huge sigh of relief while wiping the sweat off my forehead. 'They backed down.' I then looked down at percentage to see that I had 33% power left. 'But they still took five percent of my power within ten minutes. I can't let that happen again if I want to survive tonight.' I then looked down and sighed. 'But the bad thing is… I can't really stop them from doing that to me.' I thought, knowing that all I could really do is pray for it not to happen again.

'Lord… please let me make it through this night.'

5:47 am

It was very difficult but I had managed to make it through most of the night, the animatronics had tried to reach me but they hadn't made a team assault such as the one before so I managed to keep them out of the office without losing too much power.

Now I was sitting in the office, my palms sweaty and my heart beating out of my chest. My eyes were glued to the computer screen as I flipped through the camera feeds. I had about six percent power left and I knew if I slipped up just once then it could be the end of me. Luckily the last attack was about five or ten minutes ago, so I had a little bit of time to breathe. But I knew they were going to try something soon, they wouldn't let me off this easily.

'Just get to six faster!' I thought as I continued to check the camera feeds.

The closest animatronic at the moment was Bonnie, she was visible out in the hallway from "CAM 2A". Though what was keeping most on edge was the fact that Freddy had been quite random with his movements, but thankfully I had been fast enough to react whenever he got too close.

'Come on… just reach six!' I thought as I started to shake with anxiety, just wanting to go home.

Suddenly, I heard the deep and demonic chuckle of Freddy. My eyes widened and I quickly flipped through the feeds. I then landed on "CAM 4B" to see that Freddy was staring straight into the camera yet again. I quickly stood up and shut the door on my right, not wanting the animatronic to get in. I sat back down in my chair, still trembling. As a precaution I flipped the light on for the left hallway as well. I nearly jumped out of my skin when I saw Bonnie peering in and I quickly shut the door. I sat back in my chair in a panicked state, knowing that they were trying to drain the power as quickly as possible.

'No, no, no!' I thought. 'Not this again!'

I had five percent power and I still had ten more minutes to go before six. I then looked back at the camera feed to see that Freddy was still staring into "CAM 4B".

'Damn it just go away!' I thought as I started to breathe rapidly. I then flipped the light on for the left hallway and saw that the shadow was still there. 'No, no, no!'

A couple minutes passed by with the two animatronics refusing to leave my doors. But as I peered down at my computer screen the camera feed went black. A few seconds later it popped up again and Freddy was no longer in sight.

'Yes!' I thought as I quickly opened the door to conserve power. But I hesitated as I began to sit down, I then pressed the light button and my heart lurched when I saw that Chica was now outside the window. I then slammed the door button and the door descended down. I glared at the bird and extended a certain finger in her direction. I then went over to the left door and clicked the button for the light. The light shinned in the hallway, though it still revealed a shadow. I sat back down in my chair, trembling as I realized I might not have enough power. I looked at the monitor to see that I only had three percent left with six minutes to go.

'Come on damn it!' I thought out of distress. 'Just go away you damn robotic bastards!'

Three minutes went by, and I now had two percent power left due to both of my doors having to be shut due to the unwelcome visitors outside. I continued to check the doors until I saw that the left hallway was clear. I then brought up the door and saw that Bonnie was nowhere in sight.

'Yes! I have a chance!' I thought as I sat back down to see I had three minutes to go. 'Only one door in use and I still have two percent to spare! It should be enough!' I wave of relief hit me and I slumped down in my chair.

But… to my absolute horror I heard the hurried footsteps of a certain animatronic charging the office from the left hallway. My head shot straight up at the noise and my pupils shrunk.

'NO!' I thought of terror as my hand shot out and smashed the door button. The door came down just in time and the sounds of Foxy banging on it came a second after it closed. I still stood next to the door, waiting until Foxy left so that I could shut the door as quickly as possible. But, the sound of him assaulting the door did not cease.

'LEAVE DAMMIT!' I shouted in my head.

I then looked down at my monitor to see that I had two minutes to go, but only one percent power. I knew now that I couldn't even press the light buttons, I had to do whatever it took to conserve power. So, I just sat down in my chair, trembling furiously, and prayed for it to reach six am before the power went out.

'Please, please…' I prayed as tears started to form in my eyes.

The sound of Foxy raking his hook across the steel door was all that could be heard in the office. I shut my eyes as tears started to stream down them.

'Please… oh god just please…' I thought as I started to whimper a bit, the pressure and terror in my heart building.

I sat there in my terror filled state for what seemed to be hours, but… somehow I made it to six. The alarm for my clock went off and I nearly jumped out of my seat. It took me a minute to process what happened but when I did, I nearly fainted. I slumped down in my chair in a daze.

'I-I made it…' I thought as fresh tears started to form in my eyes. I then chuckled a bit. 'I actually made it…'

Suddenly, both doors opened and the lights to the room went out. I jolted upright in my chair out of fear as my eyes searched for danger. But, no danger came and I realized what had happened.

'The power went out…' I thought as I slowly rose from my chair. 'But I made it to six am… that means I'm safe… right?'

I then took out my flashlight and flipped it on. I cautiously went out the right hallway; I knew that if the animatronics were still after me, that I wouldn't be safe in the office anyways. The light of dawn somewhat lit up the dining area as I cautiously crept out into it.

'Alright… so… not animatronics chasing me yet.' I thought as I reached the dining area, shining my flashlight around it in a search for any type of danger.

'Mike…' A voice said in my head, making me jump out of my skin. I then turned to my left and my flashlight shinned on the face of Bonnie. I jumped backwards and almost fell over.

'Mike I'm so sorry…' The voice spoke up again and I recognized it to be my sisters. Bonnie then gained a sadden expression and I started to realize what was going on.

"S-Sarah?" I stuttered as I gazed at the animatronic, regaining my balance in the process.

'I tried to stop myself… but I couldn't, I wanted to help you tonight, I really did.' Sarah said as she continued to look down.

"What? Sarah it's okay." I replied hastily.

Sarah then glared at me. 'No it's not okay!' She shouted. 'He wants me to kill you Mikey! And I can't even control myself!'

"Sarah, I know that wasn't you earlier." I replied, trying to comfort her, though still a bit dazed by her sudden appearance.

'It was me Mikey!' She shouted as she turned around, unable to look at me. 'I saw everything but I couldn't control myself!' She said, her voice beginning to choke up. 'E-each time I-I even look a-at you… I hear h-him in the back of m-my head… telling me t-to kill you, t-telling me you d-deserve it.' She bawled.

"Sarah-" I started to say but she quickly cut me off.

'No Mikey-y! I-I'm sorry I-I shouldn't even be t-talking to you!' She choked out as she started to walk away towards the stage.

"Sarah wait-" I started to say as I chased after her. But I was interrupted as her metal arm connected with my head, knocking me to the ground in a daze.

"No Mike-" She started to say in my mind, but when her eyes laid upon me she realized what she had done.

I sat on the ground holding my head in pain, the whole world becoming fuzzy around me. I could just barely see Sarah's horrified face as she looked at what she accidentally did to me. (Though it was still hard to tell her expressions due to her being an animatronic.)

She then turned her head away and I heard her shaky voice say.

'I-I'm so sorry M-Mikey…' She said and I saw her turn around and run up to the stage, her crying sounding in my head as she did so.

I reached up to her blurry form.

"Sarah…" I rasped as the head trauma from the blow started to sink in.

I started to crawl towards her in a desperate attempt to reach her.

But my mind couldn't take the pain... and I passed out.

A/N: There you are… a longer chapter for you folks. I sincerely hope you enjoyed it because it took me a little while to write.

Oh, I have rewritten the first chapter if any of you are interested in seeing the upgraded/non-rushed version.

But that's all I have for now really… go on and comment if you have any complaints or suggestions. But until next times guys and girls, have a good one.
