Promise
A/N: Someone is getting close to breaking out, will everyone be ready? I only own Larry, Leo, Crackers, and the kits. Everyone else belongs to Scott Cawthon. I want to thank everyone reading and some of the readers for giving me ideas like BewitchingMayhem, James S-310, and Finnersz for some ideas that have been used in this story. If anyone has an idea don't hesitate to mention it. Without further distractions I give you the next chapter. Enjoy!
It was close to closing time in the building as Freddy and the others started to get ready to roam around the building. They watched as Leo tried to talk their brother out of staying to work the night shift. He was worried since Springtrap was expected to emerge from the sealed room tonight. Everyone watched understanding where the poor child was coming from.
"Come on Mike please! It's too dangerous" Leo pleaded once more.
Mike sighed, "Leo, I need to do this. We need the money right now."
"Even Jeremy told you to take the night off! He knows how dangerous it's going to be! Jeremy help me out here!"
The former guard sighed and looked at the two brothers, "Mike, there is no way that your safety can be guaranteed."
"I know" Mike sighed and shook the former guards hand, "Thank you for everything, and thank you for accepting to be Leo's legal guardian if something happens."
Leo looking frustrated moved towards the show stage and sat on the edge wiping his eyes. He was upset that his brother was willing to do something so reckless, and utterly stupid. The boy jolted slightly as he felt a hand on his shoulder and looked up to see Freddy looking down at him. The boy shook his head and turned to the restored bear and started to cry into its fabric covering. The animatronics looked down understanding the boy's agony, though the two who understood the most were the two rabbits. Once Leo calmed he sat back on the edge of the stage and noticed that Bon sat down next to him.
The toy rabbit placed a hand on the boy's shoulder, "Leo, from one younger brother to another I understand your concern."
"Why can't I make him understand? It's too dangerous to work here tonight!" Leo cried.
Toy Freddy sat on the other side of the boy, "He wants to do what he can so the two of you can have a better life."
"They're right" Toy Chica responded standing behind the upset boy, "Leo we understand where you're coming from. We're all worried about our older siblings too."
The boy looked around at the toy models and understood finally that with the exception of Mangle the toy models looked to their restored counterparts as older siblings. The one's who had the strongest bond in that category was Bon and Bonnie. Everyone knew that the two rabbits had a bond that couldn't be broken no matter what since they had first met. The young boy looked around once more and noticed that Mari and Golden Freddy had appeared in front of them, and noticed how upset he was. The boy tried to keep himself composed but instead started to cry once more much to the dismay of the animatronics. Goldy picked up the upset boy and let them cry into their fabric suit, "Leo, you know we will do all we can to keep him safe."
"I know" Leo sobbed, "I want to believe that you guys can. I just can't get the worst possible outcome out of my head."
Mari gently played with the child's hair, "We know, we always fear for the worst as well."
Larry watched the scene before him feeling something close to heartbreak and turned to Freddy, "What are we going to do?"
Freddy thought for a moment and sighed, "When Springtrap emerges Fredbear and I will lure him away from the office."
"What about Bon though? Out of us shadow's he's the strongest." Fredbear spoke.
Freddy looked to the toy rabbit, "Bon, I want you to stay with the others in case we fail to slow him down."
Bon got up, "Normally I would listen, but this time around I'm not letting you and Fredbear face him alone. He's already fighting with the strength of four. The two of you would be destroyed!"
Everyone including Mike and Jeremy who heard the toy rabbit's outburst looked shocked. Normally Bon would listen to Freddy, but it seemed this time around that the toy rabbit wasn't going to allow his friends to act so recklessly. Leo turned and looked at the blue rabbit surprised to see him suddenly change from his usual calm and passive nature. Freddy was about to say something to the toy until Chica placed a hand on his arm trying to keep the oil from sliding down her beak, "Freddy please let him go with you. At least t-that way I know there's a chance of you returning to me."
"Chica…." Freddy turned and faced her, "I will always come back to you."
"Then ye better let Bon go with you" Foxy responded walking towards the stage with Mangle and the kits behind him, "At least with the three of you then he might be stopped."
"H-Hi Foxy." Leo muttered from Golden's suit.
Foxy turned to the boy, "Don't worry lad, we got an idea on how to keep your idiot brother safe if he decides to stay."
Instantly everyone listened as the pirate fox went over the plan that he and Mangle had talked about. They knew that the old spring lock suits were programed to react towards sound. If they could use that to their advantage they should be able to lure the suit out towards the main room where they could keep them in place, and hopefully finish him. Before they could discuss more the woman from the day before burst back into the building rushing right past everyone and towards the sealed room.
"How the hell did she get out of jail!?" Mike looked worried.
Jeremy was already on the phone calling police, "The offender from yesterday has returned to the building, I can't promise their safety due to it being after hours. I see, thank you."
"What is she-" Mari started to speak until they all heard a scream resonating from the halls.
"He's free…." Leo gasped.
Freddy jumped down from the stage, "Fredbear, Bon let's go!"
The two others nodded and formed to their shadows following the restored bear. Toy Freddy was still lost in the chaos and looked towards one of the older models for guidance, thankfully Bonnie had quickly stepped in, "The hidden room is close to the parts and service room. If those three keep him occupied we can get Mike, Jeremy and Leo in the office and keep them safe from there.
"How though?" Toy Chica asked.
Bonnie turned towards Mari and Golden, "You two know of a way to keep him out don't you?"
"Naturally" the two mysterious animatronics answered.
Before Mike or Jeremy could protest Bonnie grabbed them and teleported everyone into the office. Mari quickly cast their wires around the entrances and Golden sealed them using some of his own energy. As another measure Bonnie quickly went to the kitchen and grabbed as much salt as he could find. He remembered what Mike had said about it supposedly keeping out negative entities. As soon as he returned Leo was already looking for Springtrap on the monitor, Mike and Jeremy were boarding up the entrances as another measure to Mari and Golden's efforts. The restored rabbit tosses the salt to the kits, "Spread this along the wall, make sure you don't break it."
The kits nodded and turned it into a game to see who could finish the lines the quickest while Crackers watched from above. Soon the room was sealed, salted, and all they could do now was wait and hope that the others would prevail. Toy Freddy looked around, "I completely blanked out in a time of crisis, I failed."
"It's alright" Mangle responded gently, "From what I heard it's normal for the first time around."
"What do you mean?" the toy bear asked.
Chica tried to stifle a laugh, "In our first major crisis Freddy had blanked as well. Goldy was the one that kept us moving until Freddy came around."
"Though this time Bonnie beat me to it" Goldy laughed slightly, "but what could that stupid human be thinking."
"Better yet, how did they even get out?" Larry asked.
Jeremy sighed, "She was being transferred to a psychiatric ward and somehow managed to escape. She seems to have quite a record for it."
Meanwhile in the hallway outside of the sealed room Freddy, Fredbear and Bon watched in horror as the woman from the day before rushed through them and embraced the spring lock suit. It was like the woman had gone entirely mad and was inviting death in the end. It was true the suit that her father had been captured in was gone, but his spirit and Spring Bonnie's shadow seemed to be able to manipulate the one they had found with ease.
"Oh daddy it's you!" the woman cried happily.
Springtrap laughed, "Tell me my dear, do you want to help me seek revenge on these pitiful bots?"
"Spring Bonnie, don't!" Fredbear pleaded with the shadow of his former friend.
Springtrap looked at Fredbear and handed a mechanical crank to the woman, "My name is Springtrap."
"Don't do this" Freddy turned to the woman, "He is nothing but a murderer. Surely you are better than that."
Bon shook their head, "Freddy, she picked the children that he killed."
Freddy turned to the toy rabbit's shadow and looked rather shocked about what they had said. Their attention was pulled away as soon as the woman had actually climbed into the suit and started to laugh. That was until Springtrap laughed and caused the locks in the suit to fail, dooming the woman to the same fate that her father had.
"W-Why…" the woman rasped with her dying breath.
Springtrap laughed, "I needed another victim to reach full strength. I hope that the three of you are ready to die now."
Fredbear noticed that a camera was looking at them and it was currently on. As the others watched in the office everyone stood around mortified. Foxy and Mangle had covered the kits eyes from the gruesome scene. Mike had covered Leo's just in time, but even he felt sick to his stomach. Jeremy watched and realized that the space the shadows were in with the spring lock suit was leaving the others at a disadvantage. Grabbing the phone, he patched it to the intercom in the main room. Looking towards the balloon children he handed the receiver to them, and instantly the two kids knew exactly what to do.
"Hello!" they both called.
Mike watched as the spring lock suit started to move towards the main room, the shadows chasing right after it. Part of him was wondering why the shadow of Springtrap hadn't emerged yet. As soon as they switched the camera to the main room the shadow of the demented animatronic was looking right into the camera. It's gaze was piercing enough that Mike felt like the shadow could look straight into his soul. Relief came though as one of the other shadows pulled Spingtrap away and threw him into a wall.
"We only have essentially the Prize Corner, Game Area, and Show Stage to be our eyes for this." Jeremy noted watching Freddy throw Springtrap back once more and Fredbear making contact with their former friend in the form of what appeared to be a strong left hook. The former guard also looked for any indication that Bon was also being allowed to fight instead of just sitting on the sidelines as Freddy had suggested.
"That's our Bonnie alright" Toy Freddy spoke as Bon suddenly appeared and managed to drop Springtrap to the ground. The toy bear was concerned though, "I don't think Springtrap is using his full strength."
"I know he isn't" Larry spoke watching as well, "They're in danger."
"We need to warn them!" Chica reached for the phone.
Bonnie gently pushed her hand away, "I think they already know. Watch closely you can see they're conserving their strength."
Everyone looked up as Springtrap's voice echoed through the building, "It's time to die, Fazbear!"
