Help from Beyond
A/N: We're coming to the close of Restored Resolve, it's been quite a wild ride. I want to thank everyone for reading and reviewing this work. I would like to ask everyone to keep your eyes open for when Determined Devotion will come out. That's for another time though. I only own Larry, Leo, Crackers, and the kits. Everyone else belongs to Scott Cawthon. Enjoy!
Leo and the others watched from the small screen as Springtrap tried to fend of Freddy and Bon again. The demented shadow had lost a lot of their strength, but the others noticed that Freddy and Bon were close to their limits as well.
"Freddy, I only have enough strength to pull him down once more, try to make the most of it." Bon spoke faintly.
Freddy nodded, "After this you deserve one hell of a rest. You've overspent yourself."
"I'd hate to see Chica angry if I don't bring you back in one piece" Bon responded and quickly phased out and pulled Springtrap back through the floor once more.
Freddy took what the toy said to heart so to speak and started to tear at Springtrap once more, but soon collapsed as the shadow damaged his knee. Bon sensing something was wrong quickly phased back and grabbed Freddy pulling him away from Springtrap's reach. Quickly the shadow reverted back to their physical body and started to repair the damage done, "Hold still."
"Out of all places?" Freddy asked sounding angry.
Bon shook his head and started to work on the damaged joint, "Help is coming."
"What do you mean?" Freddy asked raising an eyebrow.
Bon continued to work ignoring the fact that Springtrap had pulled himself from the floor and was about to attack him, "They're back, and they're taking this man to one ever lasting nightmare."
Freddy was about to ask what Bon meant until he noticed the spirit of the child that had haunted him, "You…"
"Please, we have to help too! I promise to abandon all my anger and rage!" the child pleaded.
Freddy nodded and took the child's hand within his own and watched as the child faded away smiling, and the manifestation of their anger remained. Freddy and Bon looked at the nightmarish version of Freddy and the three little Fredlets that protruded from his body. The manifestation of the child's anger quickly grabbed Springtrap and threw him back, and yelled calling for the others. Freddy reverted back to his physical form and watched as nightmarish versions of the others emerged from the dark hallway that lead to the rest of the building. The four manifestations started to gather around Springtrap and never flinched as the demented shadow tried to attack them.
"We have a place for you" the nightmarish version of Chica spoke.
Foxy was next to speak, "A place where you will never escape."
"A place where you can never hurt us again." Bonnie spoke.
Freddy knocked Springtrap down and kept him pinned, "We are only the welcoming committee, and your guides to hell. Ready to meet the devil himself?"
Freddy and Bon both perked up as they heard a dark laugh coming from the hallway. Springtrap for once showed actual fear and tried to escape from the nightmares that kept him pinned in place. Somehow the shadow broke free and instantly went for Bon and Freddy once more. Before Freddy could move Bon took the main force of the attack and fell to his knees noticing his one leg had been damaged. Freddy took the chance afford to him and quickly connected another blow to Springtrap, "This is for Fredbear!" the angered bear then knocked Springtrap's jaw loose, "And that was for Bon!"
"Do you have any idea who you are dealing with?" Springtrap looked up glaring at the bear, "I will finally destroy you once and for all."
Just as Springtrap was about to strike the dark laughter got closer and louder. Before the demented rabbit could cause any harm a yellow hand grabbed his wrist and threw him back. Freddy looked up at the figure that had just most likely saved his and Bon's life. They were large in stature and figure, but the colors left no mistake on who it was. His appearance had changed though, and matched the same nightmarish look as the manifestations.
"Fredbear…." Freddy looked up sadly, "Why…?"
Fredbear turned around and offered his hands to his friends, "I had to come back and find a way to help you. Can you two still fight?"
"I can, Bon's been injured though." Freddy spoke and looked to Bon who tore off the damaged part of their leg, "Though I don't think that is stopping someone."
"I'm not letting you have all the fun" Bon responded playfully.
Fredbear laughed slightly and restored the two shadows to their prime condition, "Consider it a parting gift, now then let us finish this once and for all."
"What's the plan?" Freddy asked.
Fredbear looked towards the nightmares, "Find him, chase him back to this room."
The nightmares nodded and started to look around the building for any sign of Springtrap. Freddy and Bon looked towards the camera and instantly the balloon children could be heard on the main room intercom luring Springtrap out once more. Once the demented rabbit was in their sights Bon quickly pulled the shadow back down causing it to scream in protest as Freddy and Fredbear quickly started to dismantle him once more. Soon the shadow was laying on the ground taking their last breaths, "If I am going to hell, I will take you with me!"
Freddy watched as Springtrap lunged for him, but he never connected with the shadow bear. From the ground a hand from each nightmare burst up and grabbed Springtrap. The shadow screamed and tried to get away, but with no avail.
"You will be coming with us" the manifestation of Bonnie spoke.
Foxy started to laugh, "Ye will be our plaything."
"You will pay for all that you have done." Chica spoke coldly.
Freddy started to laugh and turned towards the bear he bore resemblance to, "We will take this worthless thing to where they belong. He will never hurt or harm anyone again. Now we can truly rest in peace."
"Soon we all will be able to" Fredbear spoke and stabbed themselves, "I have my own anger to part with as well."
Freddy and Bon watched as a dark entity started to form that took on the appearance of Fredbear in his current nightmarish state. While Fredbear had kept his color scheme, this bear was solid black with piercing red eyes. Their bowtie and top hat were yellow and it turned towards Springtrap baring its teeth and claws indicating that the shadow's fate was sealed. Everyone in the building watched as the dark bear and the other nightmare looking manifestations dragged Springtrap down with them into what could only be gathered as a form of Hell, or another realm.
"I wonder where they went" Mangle thought out loud.
Mari looked as the floor began to seal, "To a place where that man will suffer for all eternity. The children have closed the final act on Springtrap."
"About time too" Golden spoke and continued to watch, "Hmmm…"
Everyone focused back on the screen and noticed that Fredbear was still standing before Bon and Freddy as their nightmarish appearance. Meanwhile in the room Freddy and Bon looked as Fredbear's appearance started to change to what it once was all those years ago. The yellow bear looked towards his two friends and noticed that the children who had been murdered, and the bite victim where standing around them. The yellow bear was now faced with a dilemma, to go with the children who would want someone to play with, or stay with his friends and bring joy to the children who were still alive.
"Freddy, thank you for everything" Fredbear spoke and took the hand of the bite victim, "I would stay here, but I am needed elsewhere right now."
Freddy nodded sadly understanding, "When our building is rebuilt, I'll ensure that your room is set up just like the diner once was."
"Thank you" Fredbear spoke and looked towards the children surrounding him, "Let's go home everyone. There will be for real birthday cake and ice cream for everyone! We'll go somewhere we will never be hurt again. Where every day will just be a huge celebration for us."
The children nodded and started to fade away with the yellow bear that they had embraced. Before they were entirely gone Fredbear spoke one last time, "I could never have asked for three better children. Freddy, Goldie I'm proud of you both. Despite the rough start, I always saw you two as my own. Both of you better take care of your little brother. Everyone, thank you so much for everything…. For giving me the family I could only hope for."
Once Fredbear faded Freddy's jaw hung open and he fell to his knees. Bon quickly steadied the bear and whispered his condolences for the loss the bear had just endured. Freddy could barely say thank you before collapsing with the toy rabbit from all the energy that had been spent. Springtrap had finally been defeated once and for all, but at the cost of one of their own. Once Leo indicated that Freddy and Bon had collapsed everyone quickly tore down the barricades and rushed towards their fallen friends. Chica picked up Freddy and held him close gently crying, but was thankful he was still alive. Bonnie gently picked up Bon and kept him close as the toy started to rest, thankful that the nightmare was finally over.
Mike and Leo looked around the room, and there was no trace of the fight that had occurred. Faye and Morgan also looked around and noticed something laying near where Fredbear first fell. Morgan picked up a purple bow tie and quickly showed it to Goldie and Toy Freddy who both nodded knowing exactly who it deserved to go to. Chica took the purple bow and with a little help from Toy Freddy replaced Freddy's old black bowtie with Fredbear's purple one. Goldie then helped Chica place Freddy on the show stage and help steady him while he continued to rest, "It's finally over."
"The place already feels a lot lighter" Larry noted and looked around, "I have a new found respect for you guys…. I first thought you were all just dated bots, but I couldn't be further from the truth. All of you are living legends in your own aspects. What happened here was tragic, but all of you have worked so hard to make that past right. When I first came here, I was desperate to leave…Now I don't want to go."
Toy Freddy spoke on behalf of everyone, "I'm glad your perception of us has changed, honestly we don't want to see you go either."
Faye and Morgan nodded, "You're not so bad now that we know you won't hurt us or Mama!"
"I still wanted to apologize for that" Larry looked down and kneeled before Mangle, "I'm so sorry for what I did that day."
Larry looked up as he felt two hands on his shoulders to be greeted by both Mangle and Foxy, "We forgive you, Larry."
Jeremy watched as everyone interacted and noticed that Bonnie was tending to both Bon and Freddy, "Are they alright?"
"Just making sure they're not damaged" Bonnie responded as the former guard stood next to him, "It seems like all the damage has been repaired by Fredbear though…. Honestly Jeremy I was afraid we were going to lose them."
"That makes two of us, Bonnie." Jeremey sighed, "But in the end Fredbear saved us all, and in the process I think he found closure as well."
The restored rabbit nodded, "It was a shame about Spring Bonnie though. They could have had so much potential."
"I like the two Bonnie's we already have" Jeremy smiled, "The older brother is gentle but protective, I'd hate to get on his bad side. Then there's his little brother, just as gentle and sweet. I can't imagine any other rabbits who are worthy of the name."
"6 AM! Squawk! 6AM! Time to wake up!" Crackers cawed from Mangle's shoulder.
"We get it Crackers" Mike yawned, "Ready to go home kiddo?"
Leo nodded and turned to his friends, "I'm sure I'll see you again tonight!"
"Take care guys!" Everyone called.
For the rest of the day the animatronics with the exception of Freddy and Bon who were placed in a back room went about their usual routine. The building felt a lot lighter, and with it their future once more. They overheard that their building that had burnt down was being rebuilt as they functioned. Which meant they would be able to return home soon, to a building that belonged to all of them, not just one model line.
