It's a new day, what will happen?
Freddy woke up, releasing a huge yawn. He slowly got up and out of his bed, noticing that the music box Marionette gave him last night was still playing. "Huh, I guess he was telling the truth." Freddy did his morning routine and walked downstairs. He turned on the television to see if his brother was reporting something. But, he wasn't on today, so Freddy grabbed and apple, ate it, and hurried to the Puppet Pizzeria. He walked down the basement and saw that instead of Mangle operating the controls, Nightmare was sitting there.
"Uh…" Freddy didn't know what to say. He didn't really like Nightmare as much as Mangle, but what could he do? Nightmare was a lot stronger and more buff then Freddy. He could easily do some things that Freddy couldn't do. Freddy also thought that it was weird that his name was "Nightmare." He said that it's written on his birth certificate, but Freddy has never believed him.
"Hello, Freddy," Nightmare said, with his messed up voice. Freddy also hated his voice. It sounded like a broken record.
"Hi… Nightmare…" Freddy felt really awkward. "Er… where is Mangle?"
"She said that she'll be late today. I don't know why though."
"Uh… okay then. I'll see you later…" Freddy walked away before he could even say anything back. Freddy did the usual knock on Marionette's door.
"IS THAT THE-"
"NO!" Freddy said. He walked in, and sat on the chair. His boss, Marionette was smiling and was as happy as ever.
"DID YOU LIKE MY GIFT?" asked Marionette.
"Yes, I liked it a lot. Thank you," Freddy said, smiling.
"GOOD. MAKE SURE THAT YOU WIND IT UP EVERY TIME IT STOPS. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT MIGHT SAVE YOUR LIFE."
"What?"
"HAHA! ANYWAYS, ALL YOU NEED TO DO TODAY IS DO YOUR JOB. AND THAT'S IT!"
Freddy noticed a purple envelope hanging out of a drawer on Marionette's desk. "Where did that come from?" Freddy asked while pointing at the envelope.
"HMM?" Marionette looked at the envelope that was hanging out and quickly shoved it back into his desk. "NOTHING AT ALL. WELL, ACTUALLY IT'S AN ENVELOPE. BUT ITS CONTENTS ARE NONE OF YOUR CONCERN. NOW, GO OFF TO WORK!" Marionette said while laughing for some reason.
"Okay, okay, I'll go. Bye!" Freddy said as he exited the room. But out of the corner of his eye, he could have sworn to have saw Marionette with a worried look on his face.
Freddy got to the restaurant pretty early. He walked in and saw BB by the prize corner. "Good morning BB!" Freddy said, surprising BB.
"Oh, hello! I didn't realize that you got here," BB said. "Uh, Baby is in the staff room, waiting for you."
"Okay, thanks." Freddy headed over to the staff room. He walked in, and saw Baby, Ballora, and Yenndo, all talking to one another. But there was one person who he didn't recognize.
"Hey Freddy!" Baby said, running up to him. "You are early today, aren't cha'?"
"Yeah, I guess," Freddy said.
"Come here, come here," she said, pulling Freddy over to meet the new guy. "This is Bon-Bon! He is going to be the new pianist here at the restaurant! Isn't that cool?"
"Hello," Bon-Bon said, smiling at Freddy.
"Hello."
"OH AND GUESS WHAT?" Baby asked.
"Uh… what?"
"Bon-Bon is actually Bonnet's brother! Can you believe that?"
"Oh, that makes sense." Freddy did actually think that this guy looked like Bonnet, but just a little bit. "So, it's nice to meet you."
"You too!" Bon-Bon said.
Ballora walked over to Freddy. "We also have another new co-worker here with us today! She's going to be working as a chef here with Baby!"
"Really…? Who is it?"
"I don't know her name actually. She just applied today, it seems."
"But the best part is," Baby said, "Is that I will not be alone anymore in the kitchen! I feel so happy! Yes! It's like this weight being lifted off of my chest!"
"Hello?" a voice said from behind Freddy.
"Oh hey look! It's the new chef!" Baby said.
Freddy recognized that voice… he turned around, and was shocked.
It was his little, yellow-haired sister, Chica.
"Hello!" Chica said. "I'm Chica! Nice to meet you all…" she saw Freddy giving her a stunned look. But she just ignored it and walked over to Baby.
THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING. Freddy thought.
"Well, hello Chica! Welcome to Purple Guy's Burgers and Fries! I'm Baby! Your new co-worker! AHHHH! Isn't this amazing?!"
"I'm Ballora," said Ballora, giving a little bow.
"Yenndo," Yenndo said.
"I'm Bon-Bon, it's my first day here too!"
"It's nice to meet you guys," Chica said. "Oh, and what's your name?" she asked, looking directly at Freddy. WHAT IS SHE DOING HERE?! Was all Freddy was thinking at the moment.
"You… why…?" was all of the words that he could make out. "CHICA?"
"Hey, Freddy, calm down," Baby said. "This is Freddy Fazbear."
"Chica…?" Freddy mumbled.
"What's wrong with you?" Yenndo asked.
Chica cleared her throat and grabbed Freddy by the arm. "Can. You. Show. Me. Around." she said, like she was hinting at something. Of course, Freddy got the message and nodded his head. They both left the staff room and went to the kitchen.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE CHICA?!" Freddy asked.
"SHHHHH! Calm down, jeez. You are over exaggerating."
"Over exaggerating? OVER EXAGGERTAING?"
"Listen to me Freddy. Take a few deep breaths."
"But-"
"DEEP. BREATHS."
Freddy did as he was told, and took a few deep breaths. Then he asked again, "What. Are. You. Doing. HERE."
"Marionette sent me to help you!"
"MY BOSS SENT YOU? Why, when I get back to the agency I'm going to-"
"STOP. I have an explanation. Just SHUT UP and listen to me. Gosh."
"Fine."
Chica sighed. "Thank you. Now you see, last night he called me to come over to the agency."
"How did he even get your phone number?" Freddy asked.
Chica shrugged. "So I went over, and he said that you were in some kind of trouble. So in order to make sure that you are okay, he sent me, because for some reason, he said he can't come himself."
"So, he sent you, to protect me."
"Yes."
"From what? Why am I in trouble?"
"I don't know, he just said to look out for some, 'Purple Guy' or something like that." Chica crossed her arms. "You know, what is even going on here anyways? Like, what is your mission?"
"Oh, he didn't tell you?"
"Nah."
Freddy explained to her about the old chain of restaurants and how they were closed down. Then he told her about the workers here, and how they all used to work together. He also told her to stay away from Yenndo, because of what he did to him.
"Oh dear, are you okay?" she asked.
"I'm fine, just a little sore."
"So, I'll try to befriend Baby and get some information out of her. I have no idea how to, because I'm not even a secret agent like you, but I'll try."
"Good. And make sure to keep an eye out for that box."
"Alright."
DING, DONG, DING!
"Well, I guess this is where we part ways," Chica said. "Oh, and also, your boss said that we must make sure to act like we don't know each other. You know, we have to act like we aren't siblings."
"Okay. We can do that."
"Bye Freddy," Chica said, and hugged her older brother.
"Bye."
Freddy walked into the party area that was flooding with children. Avoiding them was a challenge, but he did make it over to the stage. He went backstage and saw Ballora and Bon-Bon.
"You know the routine now," Ballora said, stretching in a weird way once again. "Only this time, we'll have Bon-Bon on stage with us." Freddy saw Bon-Bon practicing on his keyboard.
"Yep, I hope I do well," he said, looking nervous.
"You'll do fine," Freddy reassured.
"Okay. Thanks."
"Hey, let's go now! We can't keep them waiting!" Ballora said.
Freddy and Bon-Bon nodded in agreement. The three performers went up on stage and many of the children cheered. First, a spotlight hit Bon-Bon, and he started to play a slower tune on his piano. Freddy was surprised at how good this guy was at playing. Then a spotlight hit Ballora, who started to dance. Then lastly, Freddy got a spotlight, and started to sing. Everyone in the room was quiet, and nobody was moving. They all enjoyed watching Freddy and the others.
When they were finished, everyone did a little bow, and the audience cheered. Then they went backstage. "That was a great performance, you guys!" cheered Ballora.
"I think so too," said Freddy, who then looked at Bon-Bon. "You are a really great pianist."
"Really?" questioned Bon-Bon in embarrassment. "Uh… thanks!"
Ballora sighed. "It's your break time, so go and do something."
Bon-Bon and Freddy nodded. They both started to walk over to the party area. "I want to say hello to my sister first before I do anything," Bon-Bon said, looking over at Bonnet. "Hey! Bonnet!" he said. The young lady looked at her brother and smiled.
"Bon-Bon! Hi!" Bonnet said, running over to her brother. They collided and hugged. "Awww… it's great to see you again!"
"You guys… don't live together?" Freddy asked. "Have you been apart or something?"
"Well, of course silly!" Bon-Bon said. "We don't live together. We haven't even seen each other in months."
"Yeah, we decided to go our separate ways a little while back. But still, I'm glad I get to see you again, and even work with you now! See? I knew your talents were worth something!"
Bon-Bon blushed. Freddy thought that they looked more like lovers then siblings. Freddy wanted to check up on Chica, but wanted to get some information first. "Can I ask you guys something?"
"Sure. Go ahead."
"So I know that you," he looked at Bonnet, "worked as a waiter at a previous restaurant, but what did you do?" he asked Bon-Bon.
"Well, I wanted to try and become a piano teacher, but that didn't really work out. They said that I wasn't… 'original' and that I need to learn other songs that weren't so… lively. I got tired of the complaints and just decided to work here, with my sister."
"I don't understand why some people criticize others when they can't even do it themselves. It really makes me mad," Bonnet said.
"Well, I think your music is very nice, Bon-Bon," Freddy said.
"Thanks. I really appreciate it."
"Also, Bonnet, do you know anything about our boss? The Purple Guy?"
"Eh… not really. All I know is that he is out of town for now. He might come here later. At least, that's what I heard from Baby and Yenndo."
"Wait a second. Purple Guy? Like, the purple guy?" Bon-Bon asked.
"Yeah, why?" Freddy asked.
"I think I saw him the other day. He was at the department store. I was there trying to buy some things to fix up my keyboard, and he was in the electronics aisle. Yeah, I think someone else was there with him too. Someone with orange hair."
"Hmm… do you think that was Lolbit?" asked Bonnet.
"I think so…" said Freddy, who was actually hiding his happiness that SOMEONE had been able to give some useful information. "Maybe I'll talk to him later," Freddy said.
"I guess you can. But Freddy, why do you want to know where Purple Guy is?" asked Bonnet.
"Uh… well… don't you think that it's weird that he wasn't here for the opening for his new restaurant? And the fact that he isn't checking on how well his restaurant is doing?"
"Um… not really," Bonnet said.
Freddy just sighed. "Alright. Well, thanks for everything and I'm going to go now."
"Okay, see you later then."
"Bye Freddy."
Freddy walked over to the kitchen and waltzed in quietly. He peeked around the corner and saw Chica putting some toppings on a pizza while Baby was mixing some more pizza dough. He listened to their conversation.
"So, I'm really glad that you are here to work with me," Baby said. "I was having a hard time working on my own yesterday."
"Aw, I'm sorry about that," Chica said. "So absolutely nobody even volunteered to even help you?"
"Uh, actually, Freddy helped me frost some cookies. He said that I looked alone and that I needed some help."
Chica smiled. "Well, he seems like a nice guy."
"Yeah, hey um… I was wondering if you met him before."
"Hm? Me? Nah, I haven't seen him before in my life."
"Oh okay. It just seemed like he knew you or something when you were introducing yourself this morning."
"Haha, uh… right," Chica said nervously.
Then Freddy walked up to the counter and Chica looked at him questionably. She mouthed the words, 'what are you doing here' and started to shoo him away. He mouthed, 'it's okay, shhh' and when Baby turned around, Chica and Freddy stopped. Baby saw Freddy and smiled.
"Oh, hi Freddy!" Baby said happily.
"…Hi Freddy…" Chica said.
"Hey Baby! I was wondering if you needed any more help today! I mean, I know you have Chica with you today, but still."
"Ha, no, we're fine Freddy. Thank you for asking."
"Yeah Freddy. We are fine. You can go now," Chica said. Baby gave her a confused look. "If we need any help, we'll just ask you."
"Okay then. See ya later!" Freddy said. Baby went back to mixing and Chica looked at Freddy. She mouthed, 'restroom.' Freddy nodded slightly and left. He walked over to the restrooms. He waited for Chica to come. Then, he heard from his left, "Freddy? Why did you go to the kitchen?" Chica walked over to him.
"What? Why were you trying to shoo me away?" he asked.
"BECAUSE, we can't always be close to each other! They will start to get suspicious!"
"Well, Marionette told me that I must be friends with everyone, so I have to go ask Baby if she needs help. I am trying to get her to like me as a friend. This includes everyone else too."
Chica sighed. "Fine. But hey, I did learn some things from Baby."
"Ooh! What?"
Chica whispered, "You were right about the "Funtime Theater" being her previous restaurant. Also, she says that she knows the boss is here in this city, but she doesn't know where. The reason she didn't tell anyone though is because she doesn't trust many people."
"Wow. She trusts you after spending four hours with her, and doesn't trust me after two days. Great."
Chica laughed. "I guess I should be a secret agent, yeah?" Freddy eyed her suspiciously. "Omg Freddy. I was just kidding. I DO NOT want to become a secret agent. Stop worrying 'bout me."
"Well, I knew that he was in the city. Bon-Bon said that he saw him at the department store with Lolbit. I'm going to go talk to him later."
"Be careful though. You never know what he might do!"
Freddy hugged his little sister, and said, "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine, it's not like I'm volcano jumping."
They both laughed. "Alright, I gotta go back and help Baby. See ya later!"
"Bye, Chica."
Chica walked away and Freddy decided to go and look for Lolbit after his next performance.
