Chapter 1: Shattered Mysteries
Konoha – Old Streets – Wednesday
It was over, the battle for the village had ended, although the once mighty village had seen better days.
Konoha resides deep within a thick, lovely forest, which surrounds the base of a large mountain known as Hokage Rock, which has the five faces of those who had taken the title of Hokage engraved on it, this mountain serves as the furthest edge, and back, of the city.
A massive wooden and metal wall, with four green gates made from wood, surround the village. Those large green gates, large wooden and metal walls, have protected the village from the outside world, and have stood proud for many, many years.
It was a massive village with wooden, brick, and metal buildings of all shapes, and sizes, with varying shades of colour. The mixture of paths also allowed people to walk about the village, and gaze in awe at the complexity, beauty, and strange romance of the environment, both natural and urban.
Now, it was different from all those beautiful memories.
There was hardly any of the village left, the battle against the Paths of Pain had a catastrophic effect on the village. Konoha was in ruins, most of the aesthetically pleasing buildings and fauna inside the walls of the village was destroyed, with the odd surviving buildings being ruined or damaged. Those large green gates, large wooden and metal walls that have stood proud for years, were in tatters, most of the walls were not spared in the assault, leaving the village open to the outside world.
And in the exact centre of the village, the reason as to why most of the buildings were destroyed, the reason as to why the once beautiful buildings looked as if they were pushed against the edges of the zone, was a massive crater that filled the core of Konoha to the brim.
Despite all the odds, despite losing control to his Tailed Beast, despite losing many people he cared about, and despite all the odds.
Naruto Uzumaki had won, he had defeated Pain, and saved the village.
Naruto had also lived up to his name as the 'Unpredictable Ninja', and talked to the leader of the Akatsuki, the man behind Pain, a man known as Nagato Uzumaki.
Upon finding him, the two had a large debate regarding ethics, peace, pain, and the future, before Naruto finally got through to Nagato, showing him that the path that he had travelled, was the wrong path.
To thank Naruto, and to help start his new life on his path, he revived everyone that died during his invasion, while Naruto healed him using Kyuubi's powers.
Naruto let Nagato and Konan go, before returning back to Konoha, his home. However even on his way back, he was troubled, but kept it well hidden when Kakashi Hatake, one of his many teachers, found him, and helped him back to the ruined village.
Upon returning, the populace of the entire village greeted him. They cheered for him, sung songs for him, and praised him.
He was their hero now, he was no longer the monster they originally thought him to be.
Reconstruction of the village was top priority now, and even though he was troubled, he helped the villagers in the first phase of reconstruction, as it would be a long process in the restoration of the ruins and battle scars.
The walls were first on the list of things to rebuild, before everything else, and they were completed quickly, with the help of the various construction workers, Nature Users, and Shadow Clones to increase the pace of the work.
'New Konoha' was being built inside the crater, with stairs and pathways leading along the rim of impact zone, reaching the original grounds of the village just outside the radius of the crater, which were being rebuilt.
Despite the fact that the village was in such a state, the villagers were completely ecstatic, happy that everyone was okay, and the casualties were zero.
However, there is always bad news. Other than the fact the village was a mess, and they had to rebuild nearly everything again.
The Hokage of Konoha, Tsunade Senju, was in a coma from her fighting, and the Summoning Jutsu she used to make sure everyone survived Pain's attack, the one that left the crater in the village. She had made sure that the people of the village was protected by her Slug Summons, just before the Almighty Push struck the village.
That however, was her final act before succumbing to Chakra exhaustion, and falling into a coma.
One that she hasn't woken up from.
Right now, Naruto was walking along the old dirt paths of Konoha, the original village grounds on the crater edge. The sky was clear, the sun was blazing, but was low in the sky.
Naruto Uzumaki is a tall, tan skinned, handsome individual, who has dark blonde, messy, spiky hair, and sea blue eyes. He has strange characteristics on his face in the form of three whisker markings on each cheek. His outfit was strangely simple, as it was just made up of dark blue, borderline black pants, and a long-sleeve shirt of the same colour, both acting as a jumpsuit. The back of the shirt held the Uzumaki Clan crest. He also wore black sandals. Over this, he wears a short-sleeved, knee long, blood red coat that is decorated with black flame patterns around the hem. The back of the coat also held the Uzumaki Clan crest for the world to see. He had his forehead protector headband around his left arm, with its metal plate, and the Konoha Symbol cut into the metal. He is also carrying a black backpack, and with the indentations in the bag, it may contain books, or sharp cornered objects.
Naruto was walking for some time, never stopping, and always thinking. While his clones were helping in the reconstruction of the village, he was trying to figure out what to do now. He was still thinking back to the battle against Pain, from him going berserk, and going into the four Tailed state, before he went even further, going into the six, and then the eight Tailed state when he was trapped by Pain's Planetary Devastation.
It was when he was about to fully unleash the Nine Tailed Fox, that Minato Namikaze, also known as the Fourth Hokage, but also known as his father, stepped in and prevented Naruto from pulling off the Seal.
Naruto was so happy to see his father, but also incredibly furious at him for Sealing the Tailed Beast into him, his own son.
Minato had explained what had happened around the time of Naruto's birth to cause such an act, and his reasoning behind Sealing the Kyuubi into him.
It helped Naruto understand why his father did what he did, and while he was still angry, it cleared it up, and to be honest, his father did the right thing.
The newly reunited father and son sat and talked for ages, before his father noticed something on the base of Naruto's neck. A Seal that Naruto had never noticed, and judging by Naruto's reaction, one he didn't know he had.
To say Naruto was livid was an understatement, he had no idea a Seal was on his neck, but the nature of the Seal was also a cause for more rage.
It was a Memory Blocking Seal, but it also had what appeared to be a Memory Altering Seal mixed in with it.
And it looked like it had been reapplied a few times.
Minato had repaired the Eight Sign Seal on Naruto's stomach, before removing the Memory Blocking Seal/Memory Altering Seal mix on the base of Naruto's neck. He wasn't expecting his son to be in pain from that, and he had held his son to help him calm down, and to ease him through this.
Poor Minato wasn't expecting the flurry of swearwords that roared from Naruto's mouth when the pain subsided, but Naurto still had tears running down his face. While the former Hokage had seen Naruto cry tears when he met him for the first time, the tears that Naruto was releasing was full of rage, sadness, and hatred. When he asked Naruto why he was crying in rage, and screaming profanities across the mindscape, the answer he had gotten was one that changed his view on Konoha, and on the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, forever.
It had sickened the former Hokage to no end what most of the populace of Konoha had done to Naruto. It turned out that they were trying to 'groom' Naruto to be their guard dog, well, guard fox in this case. Not all of the clans and people of the village were in on this, but the majority was.
But to have over nine of Naruto's friends disappear, Seal away his memories of those friends, then to reapply the Seal every so often to hide away more memories was just insulting, and appalling.
They didn't honour his dying wish, so to make up for what he did by Sealing the Kyuubi into Naruto, Minato trained Naruto for as long as he could, before he was forced to return to the afterlife. Where he would ruthlessly destroy Hiruzen for what the old fart did to his son.
Naruto, upon returning to the village, had found the ruins of the Hokage Residence, and in secret, went through all the documents and scrolls, coping the many forbidden scrolls, including the Scroll of Seals. He also found The Black Books, in which all the information of the reigns of the Hokages were documented, both public and private. He originally wanted the Books of the Third and Fifth Hokages, regarding the whole Naruto Uzumaki Weapon Plan, the one that the Third had started, and the Fifth was continuing. He also took note of the Hyuuga Affair, the Uchiha Clan Downfall, The Uzumaki Clan Demise, and a few others. He had originally left all the Black Books alone, apart from Hiruzen's and Tsunade's, but upon looking at chapter titles in the other Hokages' Black Books, he made copies of all them after finding some 'juicy' bits of information. So he ended up coping everything from all the books.
In case he would need the information later on.
Naruto's walk and reverie was interrupted was he found another family photo album in the ruins. He created a Shadow Clone using a single hand symbol, the clone exploded into existence, before it picked the photo album up, and took it to the 'Lost and Found' area, where many items were being dropped for families to look through if anything of theirs were found in the rubble.
Naruto shook his head with a light, fake smile, before continuing on his walk along the edge of the crater. He was also trying to remember more about his locked past, more importantly, the friends that were apparently killed according to the books by the Third. The plan apparently had it so he would only grow up with who the Third wanted him to grow up with, so that those people, more like agents, could keep Naruto from harbouring any form of resentment to the village, and instil loyalty into him through 'friends'.
The very thought of fake friends like that made Naruto scowl, and only fuelled his animosity to the village he had wanted to become leader of.
His musings were curtailed, when the sounds of footsteps made it to his ears. The person wasn't being stealthy, so it wasn't an assassin, but it was quiet enough to let Naruto know that the person was light on their feet, or experienced at keeping it quiet, and keeping to the shadows. Turning to his left towards a still ruined building next to a small forest, he saw who it was. The Third Hokage had told Naruto never to trust this man who was meeting his gaze right now, but as it stands, Naruto didn't trust a damn thing that came from Hiruzen's mouth anymore, but because the person in question had caused the whole downfall of Nagato Uzumaki, Naruto wasn't going to trust him for that reason.
Standing before Naruto was Danzo Shimura. He appears to be a frail, old man, this was also implied by him walking with a cane. But Naruto could tell that he was always guarded, and was always on alert, as his muscles twitched with each movement, and he was also keeping his eye out for any would be assailant. He has black, shaggy hair, however his right eye and forehead was bandaged. He also has an x-shaped scar on his chin. He wears a white shirt, with a black robe over the top of it covering from his feet, to just over his right shoulder. The robe conceals his right arm which is also bandaged, and covered with three large golden braces.
"Naruto Uzumaki." Came the experienced voice of Danzo, who was meeting Naruto's gaze. The older male knew where Naruto was the whole time, he knew the real Naruto was keeping his distance from most of the villagers, and only helped out if needed. While Naruto did help rebuild a fair deal of Konoha, most of that was due to his clones, and while the others may not have noticed this, Danzo was one of the few who did notice.
To Danzo, Naruto was the guardian of the village, and the prison that holds the Nine Tailed Beast. He also knew how vital Naruto was to the future of Konoha, being the son of Minato Namikaze, and being the Jinchuriki of the strongest Tailed Beast.
Danzo knew he could easily control the beast inside Naruto using his transplanted Senju and Uchiha cells, but he didn't want that. What he did want was Naruto to be the one who fought with the village, for the village. The Shimura Clan member was a patriot at heart, and he would do anything to protect Konoha, and through any means necessary. He himself knew he was self-righteous, amoral, and had draconian methods, but he also has a sense of nobility and dignity. He would do anything to protect Konoha and bring peace to the Shinobi World.
"You're Danzo Shimura, a member of the Council of Konoha, and rival to Hiruzen Sarutobi. I must say, I wasn't expecting you out here, I was expecting you to be trying to keep the village together along with the council after the Fifth Hokage falling into a coma."
"I see you know of me, and of my rank in the village government. You've clearly done your research on the members of the village, and just kept the real you locked away. That side of you was locked away until the right time, isn't that right?" Praised, and questioned the elder with calm features still gracing his face and body language. His trained eyes noticed the teen quickly jerk in shock, but quickly calmed himself and try to act like nothing happened. But Naruto's eyes suddenly homed in on his like a hunter, his stance suddenly shifted into something dangerous, something deadly and cunning.
Danzo was impressed, clearly he was right, and if he had gotten a hold of Naruto years earlier, Naruto now would be a force that the planet had never seen since the times of Madara and Hashirama. While Naruto wasn't to their level yet, he still was a force to be reckoned with after defeating Pain, but also recalling the other battles that Naruto has been in, Danzo knew that the blond would be a warrior that would change the face of Gaia.
"It's always nice to know who I'm working with. But also I like knowing information about the place I live in, everything." The blond haired male commented ominously with a ghost of a grin on his face.
"I know you would do anything to protect the village, Naruto, just like a true ninja. But remember, every light casts a shadow. I was Hiruzen's dark shadow, much like Sasuke is yours. Every good act creates something bad at some point, and something bad creates something worse. Do you understand this?"
Naruto sent a nod to the elder, agreeing with his words, and storing those words for later.
"I'll let you continue on your travel Naruto. However, I'm the Temporary Hokage, just to let you know."
"Of course since Tsunade is incapacitated at the moment, and with you having the most experience, you would be the best choice. Thank you for the advice, and for letting me know." Replied the calm Naruto, still gazing unwaveringly at the experienced elder, who nodded back, and walked back into the shadow of the building.
Danzo however, was curious and worried, his Kotoamatsukami didn't even work against Naruto, and it should have. He held eye contact with Naruto the whole time, and focused a great amount of Chakra into it to make it work, and yet it didn't. It just didn't make sense. He would have to think about it later, he had plans to make, and meetings to get to.
Naruto however looked away and continued on his walk, looking into the crater, and seeing the foundations of the New Konoha, taking in the beauty of urban creation. It was nowhere near the beauty and scale of nature, but seeing the people working together, building a better tomorrow was always a good thing. He closed his eyes, and revealed his hidden eyes for the first time in nearly ten years.
Upon opening his eyes again, his sclera was black, the blue in his eyes was black as well with a white outline, and his pupil was white. The white pupil also had veins that seemed to connect to the white outline where his pupil reached before, the veins also looked like broken glass in style. The white glowed eerily, even in the setting star of their world.
"These eyes… are no longer hidden from me. These eyes of life, these Life Eyes… I will not hide anymore." Naruto commented with a calm smirk, before walking down the path once more.
Konoha – Old Streets – Wednesday
He must have been walking for quite a while since him restarting his walk after encountering Danzo, as it was night now. The original streets and buildings of Konoha had scattered lights, due to the grounds not being rebuilt yet, this was also the same for the new grounds in the crater and in certain areas going up the impact zone, but for a different reason.
He was stood still at the moment, his glowing white starred eyes gazing at the heavens, seeing all the distant stars glistening in the darkness of space. His eyes seemed to mirror the night sky now, and he loved it. He always loved looking at the night sky for guidance, for help, but also just to look at the beauty of the cosmos.
There was always light in darkness, no matter how small it was.
Naruto smiles brightly, which would have looked strange if anyone was watching him due to his eyes that mirrored the veil of night.
However, he noticed a rundown building in the corner of his eyes, and hell knows how it went unmissed by the citizens of the village, as it was a large building, and modern, despite its dilapidated state. Most of the exterior structure was damaged with time and environmental damage, with vines and leaves growing up various parts of the walls helping to further obscure the building from the world. He notices a sign above what appears to be boarded up doors, frowning, he strolls over to the barricaded door, and uses his Chakra to climb up the door to get to the sign above it. Moss and dirt have coated the sign through time.
Rubbing away at the dirt on the sign, he began to uncover what was hidden beneath the muck. Upon clearing it, he cleaned his hands in a nearby lake, before returning and looking at the now partially unveiled sign. He spoke what was written in a confused tone of voice, and his facial features further proved to emphasis this.
"Freddy Fazbear's Pizza?" Naruto seemed to ponder for a moment, before his eyes widen in shock and realization, before his face contorts into a confused one. "What happened to this place…? It doesn't even look like the same building… Why is it even like this, out of the way and abandoned…?" He continued to mumble questions, before seeing an opening in the wall. His questions stopped as he scrutinized it, he would have to climb inside through the high opening, but he wanted answers damn it, and he wasn't going to back down. Plus, it's not as if anyone would even look here, no evidence of tracks can be seen on the ground, or on the trees around the former establishment, and he had made sure that his footprints wouldn't be seen.
Steeling himself, Naruto climbed up to the opening in the wall, and tried to analyse what was just inside, beyond the opening. It was pitch black inside, nevertheless he could make out some chairs, a long table, a bookcase, and a small table. The walls were also dark, and it also has a black and white chequered stripe with a red outline on just below centre, with the rest of the wall being a grey colour.
He couldn't make out much more in the room, so he climbed into the hole of the structure, and slowly, but surely, managed to climb inside without damaging anymore of the brick and stone walls.
Konoha – Decaying Freddy Fazbear's Pizza Reception – Wednesday
His feet landed on the firm ground with a thud, a thud that echoed through the room. Upon landing, he looked around the rundown room, seeing dust in the air and on the ground, more evidence to say that nobody had been here for years now. The smell was horrible as well, damp, musky, and stale. The smell permeated through the air, and no matter where he walked in the room, it was still there, although not as high in some places. He could see much clearer now though, he wondered if it was his eyes adjusting to the darkness, the Kyuubi enhancing it, or his Life Eyes improving it.
Against one wall were metal chairs that had a small table in front of them, while near the wall on the opposite side a long table connected to a bookcase resided, with just two chairs behind the table. Naruto was right about the walls also being dark in tone. The walls are dark grey, with black and white chequered stripes with a red outline on running along the walls just below the centre mark.
Naruto could make out posters dotted about on the walls, but like the rest of the building; the posters, and what appeared to be drawings, were damaged with age, and/or coated with dirt. He sighed in sadness, and had crestfallen features. He looked at the sign on the desktop nearer the bookshelf.
"This is the reception area… huh…" He mutters, while glancing at some remaining books on the shelf, strolling over and taking one of the books, he quickly noticed that this restaurant wasn't open for long, and it didn't have many customers, therefore, it wasn't able to gain a substantial amount of revenue. "Hmm, only five years, with the last two years on the verge of shutting down. It apparently was the last Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, both this one and the previous one were closed down due to… murders…" Naruto seemed to trail off upon seeing that, he wondered which murders, was is something to do with his friends? He had never heard of any other events, so he assumed it may have been covered up. But alas, the cover up didn't last forever.
He put the book down, before walking through the broken doorway that led into an open area.
Konoha – Decaying Freddy Fazbear's Pizza Dining Area – Wednesday
Upon walking through the threshold, he set his eyes on what he assumed was the Dining Area, and it also appears in a state of intense decay and disrepair. He notices rats scurrying across the floor, leaks in the ceiling, oil stains on the floor, and other assorted garbage strewn about. Naruto knew that the rest of the building would be in a similar state
It's a large room furnished with six tables lined up in three rows. In the darkness, the walls of the Dining Area cannot be seen easily, due to size and darkness enveloping it. The tables themselves are covered in white tablecloths decorated with confetti patterns, all of which were stained with dirt or torn up. The tables also had different coloured party hats on them, but some were on the floor as well. Chairs line the tables on both sides, with some missing or broken, but the chairs did look comfortable to sit on at one point. The chairs boasted confetti patterns as well, and there is a large gold star on the backrest of each one. The floor itself is tiled with black and red tiles, with a small section on the edges of the room having white and black tiles.
A few doorways and corridors can be seen in the darkness, with the corridors at the very back, doorways on each side of the hall, and with another door next to the left corridor. Naruto stepped further into the hall and noticed the door next to the left corridor was completely caved in, with the room behind it seemingly having its celling and roof brought down into it, meaning that it was pointless even attempting to go through that way.
The left corridor has star decorations and wires hanging from the ceiling. On the wall closest to Naruto are multiple posters. Cobwebs seem to be in various places in the corridor, much like the rest of the building. The floor tiles were red and black, however the tiles became blue and black towards the end, this was the case for both corridors. Papers are scattered about on the floors, with varying sizes of papers hanging on the walls. There was also a shelf just outside a door at the far end.
The right hallway has two doors, one near the top, and another near the bottom. Star-shaped decorations hang from the ceiling, and various pictures are hung on the walls. At the end of the hallway, is a corner littered with papers and trash. On the walls are papers, as well as a poster. There appears to be televisions of some type on the ground near the far door. Star-shaped decorations hang from the celling there as well. A bunch of wires seem to hang from the ceiling over the monitors near the furthest door.
The one thing that Naruto keeps his eyes on for some time though, is a poster at the very end. It isn't coated with dirt, or ruined like the other ones, this one is spotless. It appears to show the head of a female anthropomorphic creature, one with the features of a bear, but the fur was gold, and the eyes were fully black, soulless, and empty. It also seems to have messy golden hair too. The female bear in the poster was wearing a black top hat, and seemed to be smiling brightly. Around the eyes were a lighter shade of gold, and she also had black eyebrows and small black freckles on her muzzle.
Naruto shook his head, hearing the eerie laugh of a female, and also catching his name being whispered. It had lasted for some time, ever since his eyes landed on the poster of the golden bear, but stopped when he looked away. He looked to the right wall, and noticed a large, cylindrical, purple-coloured curtain, decorated with stars and sparkles. There stands a clean sign in front of the curtain that reads, 'IT'S ME'.
Naruto froze for a moment, and his breathing slowed suddenly. He felt a presence behind him, he quickly whisked around, prepared to defend himself against an unknown foe. Upon turning around though, he didn't see anyone, nor did he hear anyone. His eyes though landed on what appeared to be the Show Stage. On the wall are decorations that resemble clouds and stars. Like the majority of the building, there is a black and white chequered strip of wallpaper outlined in red on the wall. The floor of the stage was wooden, the wood was still in good condition, despite the decaying environment around it. What caught his attention more than the untouched wooden stage, was what was standing on the stage.
On the stage were three anthropomorphic, animatronic characters. Naruto could tell that they were taller than he was, but they had very… peculiar designs.
The one on the left was an anthropomorphic rabbit in terms of design, Naruto could also easily see the fact that it was a female, but also he could see the android segments on it, due to the joints on the body, arms, legs, and ears. The rabbit is indigo-coloured with lighter shade patches on various parts of the body. She also has magenta eyes, a black nose, and shoulder length spiky purple hair. Her ears are very long, and are capable of bending due to the joints in them. She wears a red bow tie. She is also carrying a dark red guitar. Around the eyes are a dark shade of purple in a pattern like his Sage Mode, and she also has thin black eyebrows. She also has paws and a small rabbit tail.
In the middle was a bear, much like the one he saw in the poster, but this one was different, although the bear in the poster and the one here had similarities. Like with the rabbit, the bear was also female, and had machine joints at various places. The tall bear was a chocolate brown with light brown patterns on her stomach. She has ice blue eyes, a black nose, and lower back length seal brown face framing hair. She has short round ears, and like the rabbit's, are able to move. She wears a black top hat and a bow tie, and is wielding a microphone with her right hand. She has black eyebrows, paws, three blackish freckles on both sides of her muzzle, and a beauty spot under her left eye. She also has a scar on her left hand, and around her eyes are seal brown markings like the rabbit's. She also has a small bear tail.
The final one, the one on the right, is a female chicken with the same mechanical features as the previous two. She is bright yellow with an orange beak that looks like a mix between a chicken and a duck. She also has bright magenta eyes, black eyebrows, and orange legs. Her arms and hands are like wings, but seemed to have hands with fingers. On the top of her head are three tufts of feathers, and she has two talons from each of her orange feet. She wears a white bib that reads 'LET'S EAT!' in yellow bubbly letters, outlined in purple. The bib is flecked with tricolored triangles in patterns of three, and what appears to be tiny stylized pizza slices. She also has a small tail, her eyes have dark yellow markings around them, and she has dark yellow, round layers styled hair that reached her upper back. She is carrying a tray on her left hand. On her tray, there is a pink cupcake with two large yellow eyes, a yellow-striped birthday candle with a vinyl candle-light, buck teeth, and no wrapper.
What the blond hero didn't understand was why the girls, these cybernetic anthropomorphic creatures, had curves. Beautiful bodies and curves that would make any girl green with envy. He truly didn't understand that, he assumed that the ostentatious designs were to impress children, but seeing the curves and features of the animatronics made him question the audience these creations entertained.
He was puzzled more so, but regarding another matter that connected these machines and this restaurant. The building didn't match what his memories told him was the restaurant, the building he remembered was bigger, brighter, and had more rooms. But also the robots on the stage were different. However, he never said he didn't remember these ones, he remembered these animatronics, but they looked broken and withered back then, yet here they were, clean and crisp, as if they had just been built.
"None of this makes fucking sense… the building is wrong, you… animatronics are wrong. You lot are meant to be withered and damaged, yet you are all here, repaired… except… F-Foxy and Goldie. This place is giving me nothing but bad memories. I lost all of my friends… I read that you machines were destroyed, all by that old bastard." Naruto hissed out as he began to breakdown, his body was trembling with rage, sadness, and regret. His eyes were a whirlpool of emotions, all of which were negative in nature.
Inside Naruto's Seal was the Nine Tailed Fox, better known as Kyuubi or Kurama, Naruto's love/hate friend. The beast opened a single eye, clearly hearing and feeling the storm of emotions its vessel was creating. It was going through Naruto's memories at the moment, learning everything that was originally hidden from pair of them. It was also likely that it was Kyuubi's exploring of Naruto's memories that was increasing this storm from a harsh wind with the odd lightning strikes, to a storm that rivalled the wind speeds of Neptune and lightning bolts that could only exist in Jupiter's liquid metallic hydrogen core. The rage that Naruto was feeling at the moment frightened the fox, causing it to slowly move backwards, deeper into its cell. Even Kyuubi wasn't wanting to be around the rage that her vessel was generating.
Naruto quickly spun around to face a table, his face bearing the rage that the deities of the many races in the cosmos would cower in fear of. He kicked the whole table across the room, causing it to explode against the far wall. He quickly punched a number of the chairs around him, before punching the next table into hundreds of pieces. He was screaming profanities with a rage filled voice, and tears streaming down his face, as he continued to cause destruction to the furniture and area. If he was focusing enough, he would be able to see that the eyes of the animatronics were glued to him, wide eyed, scared, and yet filled with happiness when looking at him. The purple curtains that were closed before, had parted, allowing anyone looking to see the occupant that was inside.
It was a fox in terms of design, like the others was a female, but also like the others, the joints on the body, arms, legs, and ears could be seen. The fox has scarlet red fur with lighter shade patches on her stomach and muzzle. She also has pale yellow eyes, a black nose, and upper back length wavy dark red hair. Her ears are long, and are capable of moving due to the joints in them. She wears shredded brown pants. Her right hand is a hook, she wears an eye patch that is folded over her right eye, and around her eyes are dark red markings. She has dark red eyebrows, and has black dots on her muzzle. She also has human like hands and feet mixed with paws, and a large fluffy fox tail that had a white tip that gradually became scarlet along the tail. She also appears to have scars on her lower legs, left arm, and stomach. While the other animatronics had human-like teeth, the fox had sharp teeth.
She too was looking at the carnage being brought about by the human male, clearly recognizing who it was, and clearly the other animatronics had also realized who the blond was.
'Naruto… Ye so broken… Arrr, we'll help ye…' The foxy pirate android thought sadly as she watched Naruto tear the entire room apart, cursing, and crying along his rampage. Clearly the girls onstage were also thinking something along those lines, but before they could act on it, Naruto fired a Rasengan at a wall in the corridor, the corridor that held the boarded up lavatories. The explosion caused a large amount of dust to be kicked up, and it shook the building as well. The pirate hoped the building wouldn't collapse due to that, if it did, they would all either be crushed, or even worse off in terms of damage. Even if they did survive, where would they go? Her musing was put on hold, when she heard Naruto speak again, and he sounded so broken.
"I don't even know what the fucking hell I'm doing, I'm trashing a place that's ruined, and I'm making it worse. I couldn't even protect my first friends, the ones that I loved… I'm pathetic… I shouldn't have been born, maybe they could have lived… But they had to die for a fucking sick plan created by a sick bastard. I HOPE YOU FUCKING BURN IN SHINIGAMI'S STOMACH, SARUTOBI!" Naruto roared out in pain, despair, and pure hate. His scream stopped the animatronics from moving, the bellow was nearly demonic, and it stunned them to hear him so angry and fractured. They wanted to hold him, tell him everything, and tell him that it would be alright. They then heard him sigh loudly, before seeing him walk back into the Dining Area again with heavy shoulders, and a tired expression. He must have mentally worn himself out from his crying, swearing, and emotional words. Naruto's eyes were also emotionless and dull, despite tears still dripping from his eyes, which had now returned to their original white sclera, blue eyes, and black pupil.
Naruto was exhausted, the strain of crying, the strain of his rage and carnage, the strain of remembrance had caused damage to his hands, arms, legs, heart and mind. His legs, arms and hands were scratched and bloody, no doubt from the punching, kicking, and frantic movements in his wrath induced moment. His mind was knackered from the stress of remembering his lost friends, the lies of a former grandfather figure and the village, and the bitterness of him being weak when his friends needed him most. "Yuuko, Maiko, Rei, Hitomi, Chieko, Ryoko, Aika, Kayo, Tomoko, Sachiko, Rena, Anei, Kumori, Motoyo, and Seika … I'm sorry… I never even got a chance to tell you all how I wanted to be around you, how much you meant to me… You were my loved ones, and I… I'm sorry…" Naruto's vision blackened around the edges of his range, before he saw black, and collapsed. He felt so dead inside, so empty, so broken, it was as if his body was becoming a part of this dead, ruined building. His body was about to slam onto the damp, cold, dead floor, but a golden furred arm wrapped around his chest, stopping his descent, and saving him from more damage.
"Naruto…" A soft feminine voice uttered softly, it sounded similar to the girl's laugh when Naruto had looked at the poster in right corridor.
It was the golden bear in the poster. The bear was definitely of the female gender, and had machine joints at various places. The tall bear was a metallic gold with MU gold patterns on her stomach, hands and muzzle. Her eyes are fully black, empty and soulless, she also has a black nose, black eyebrows, and messy metallic gold face framing hair. She has short round ears, and like the brown bear's, are able to move. She wears a black top hat and a bow tie, both had a blue tint to them. She has paws, and three blackish freckles on both sides of her muzzle. Like the other animatronics, she had patterns around her eyes that are MU gold in colour. She also has a small bear tail.
The other animatronics left their original positions to gather near the golden bear, all of which were bearing sad and worried facial features. Not surprising, when taking into account of what they just witnessed.
"Goldie… how long was you watching all of that, and how long have we been asleep for?" Came the questions from the brown bear, as she ran her paw along Naruto's back, trying to still figure out how it is Naruto, but also trying to figure out how he survived after what happened all those years ago. She was sure he died, that's what she had heard from the guards at the previous location, where it all happened. She cried for ages upon hearing it, and upon telling the others what she had heard, they wanted revenge against the population for what they had done, despite the fact they were still getting used to their new bodies.
"You four were in hibernation for three years, and I had picked up Naruto's Soul Signature when he approached the building. I have been keeping an eye on his Signature ever since I was able, but to see him… in my arms… here… I can't believe it. Naruto has returned to us, the one we… wanted, has returned to us. He's changed so much, he's in so much pain, and he's so broken."
The other animatronics looked at Goldie in disbelief and shock. Three years?! Three years had passed since the place had closed down, and they were left here to rot with the building. What the heck happened in that time?!
"T-three years?! You're kidding, please tell me you're joking, Goldie!" The purple rabbit uttered out hysterically, also running a paw along Naruto, but gripping his arm when she broke the silence.
"I'm not joking, Bonnie… I had used my powers to keep you four asleep, clean, and active, while checking the surrounding areas, trying to keep the building from falling apart, training my powers, and checking on the animatronics at the other location. The moment I picked up Naruto nearby, I stopped everything to make sure it was him, and when he looked at my poster, I woke you up… just in time for you to see him trash the place… and to hear his cries for help and forgiveness…" She replied sharply, before trailing off with sadness and woe. She had heard everything that the blond had said, it tore her apart to hear him say that their deaths had been his fault, when he had nothing to do with it. He didn't kill them, then shut them down years later, they all knew that, but he was blaming himself and saying that he wanted to die.
That really hurt her, but upon hearing his confession regarding her and the others, the confession made her heart jump and beat rapidly. She was about to show herself to him, but couldn't due to him blacking out. Lucky she was able to get to him in time, otherwise he would be in more agony. She was using her powers to heal the injuries he sustained when venting his rage out on the building and furniture. The mental damage and scars that the blond hero had would require creative thinking to try and cure, or at least ease.
The question now though, would Naruto even recognise them? After all, the last time he saw them they were human, but like them, he talked with the animatronics, the main ones from the previous location, and them, who was at the old location, before they were moved here after that place closed down. But maybe they could try a different way, the way they used back then before their deaths, or tell him the secrets he had told them, to show it was indeed them.
They didn't know why Naruto spent more time with them, but they were glad he did. They knew he was a kind kid but very selective when picking friends. They were glad he wanted to be their friends, although it was funny at the same time, one boy with many girl friends.
Now they're furry animatronics that had humanlike traits mixed with animals, he wouldn't want to be around them now, right? He would want to have friends amongst his own kind, but they hoped that he wouldn't leave them alone again, although that was forced.
"Arrr ye takin' the piss, with how damaged Naru's mind is, I'd be fuckin' surprised if he even could tell t's us!" Came the pirate like voice from the foxy robot as she waved her hook in Goldie's face.
The brown bear slapped the back of the fox's head, and shook her head disapprovingly, before commenting in an upper class tone. "Profanities, Foxy, I told you to cut back on them."
Foxy, who was nursing the back of her head from the paw slap from the bear, growled at her with narrowed eyes. "Arrrrr, Freya, yer be missin' the point, t's been nine years."
The chicken nodded to Foxy's statement, and added her own additions to it, in her soft warm voice. "Foxy is not wrong, Freya… I mean, by what he was screaming out, it sounds like his memories were hidden, and they only just came back. His mind would still be trying to figure everything out." Chica looked down at the floor in sadness, and worriedly rubbed her left wing/arm. "Plus, we're not human anymore."
Goldie nodded. "Chica is right, we aren't human… but I am not losing him again. During his rants, I heard him mention a Memory Blocking Seal, and a Memory Altering Seal. Maybe the backpack he has on will shine more light into this."
The other girls nodded, and carried Naruto to the Show Stage. Foxy had taken the bag from Naruto, while Naruto was being laid onto Goldie's lap to stop him from being on the cold floor. Goldie had also created a light above them to allow them to see what they was doing.
The girls had emptied the contents from the bag that Naruto had carried with him, scattered on the stage were spare clothes, some canned food, a few kunai, and some toiletries. It wasn't until Foxy got frustrated and slammed it against the wall, the act of doing so opened a secret compartment in the bag, showing five Black Books.
Picking one each, the furry androids read through each of them, until they heard a sharp intake of breath, and a gasp following it. Freya, Chica, Bonnie, and Foxy turned to see the cause of it. It was Goldie, and she seemed to be focused in the book she was reading, and gradually, her face became stormy, and cross. The girls were about to ask what was wrong, until the golden bear spoke venomously. "Read, you'll find the whole story regarding what Naruto was screaming about in his cries. I'm not surprised Naruto vented out his rage, because I'm tempted to do the same, but direct it to the whole family lines of nearly everyone in Konoha!"
The other girls, except Bonnie, quickly gathered behind Goldie, not even wanting to doubt or delay her command, especially with that tone of voice she used.
"I think you'll need this to complete what I believe you've just found in your book." Bonnie harshly suggested as she got up, and showed Goldie the book, putting them side by side. "The book I was reading was continuing on from the book you're reading."
The girls read through the two books. The Third's book contained the start to it all, they read about the 'Naruto Uzumaki Weapon Plan', 'Uzumaki Clan Demise', 'Hiding of all Information Regarding the Uzumaki Clan', but also 'Naruto's Loyalty Preparation and Procedure'.
The animatronics knew all about the Uzumaki Clan, after all, it was the Uzumaki Clan that created them.
The Uzumaki's naturally possess incredibly strong life forces, granting them very long lifespans. The person who repaired them, Mito Uzumaki was born before the founding of Konoha yet lived well into the second reign of the Third Hokage. They could also recover from injuries and exhaustion in short periods of time, and survive the removal of Tailed Beasts, although they are still left near death afterwards. They could also harness and accelerate their rejuvenative traits by biting and sucking their Chakra, even though that was dangerous to use too regularly. They were most famed for their Fuinjutsu/Sealing Techniques, and many other things. They could also produce Adamantine Chains made of their own Chakra.
What the world didn't know, was that the Land of Whirlpools was incredibly advanced in terms of technology, far more advanced than the neighbouring Lands and Nations of Gaia. It was to the point where they had the ability to go to the Moon, had androids walking around the streets and environment of the old island, had computers and other high tech pieces of equipment.
But judging by this book, and what Mito had told them before she died, Mito didn't know her homeland was destroyed, didn't know of Naruto's existence, and that Konoha was responsible for the catastrophe that befell the Uzumaki Clan. The Third Hokage had sent out secret orders to agents hidden in Uzushio to disable the Security Seals around the village, and place some potent explosives at critical points in the village. While at the same time, agents had also given information to the other nations regarding the powerful clan, and how to take it out. Kumo, Iwa, Mist, Suna, and a number of minor villages sent an army towards the Land of Whirlpools, an army that consisted of nearly 40,000 people. Even though the Uzumaki Clan lost, and was forced to scatter across the planet, the enemy army that held 40,000 at the start of the Uzushio Invasion, left with only 11 people. That left a deep scar across the many nations of the planet, knowing that one clan could do that.
Mito clearly didn't know her home was destroyed by all those nations, who had been given the information by Konoha. The animatronics that are in Konoha right now, were given as gifts by Uzushio for the new chain of restaurants that were built in the Hidden Leaf Village.
Fredbear's Family Diner (FFD).
And that's where the 'Naruto Uzumaki Weapon Plan' and 'Naruto's Loyalty Preparation and Procedure Plan' came into play.
FFD was in service for a very long time, until 13 years ago, where it was forcibly shut down due to murders.
Four years later, the first Freddy Fazbear's Pizza (FFP) opened up with newer Toy animatronics, while Foxy, Freya, Bonnie, Chica, and Goldie were left in the backroom, not to be rebuilt due to age. Not long after it opened, the place was forced to be shut down not even a month into opening up again, due to more murders.
Then FFP opened up again a year later with the old furry androids upgraded and repaired by Mito before her passing. The newer animatronics killed a number of people in the new location for a total of five years, before the place was shut down, and they too, like the other animatronics in the previous location, were left to be forgotten. To fade away into the pages of history.
Hiruzen Sarutobi had all of those people killed, and all of those places shut down, because they all had one thing in common. Naruto Uzumaki. Although the last establishment, this one, was closed down by Fazbear due to the health board, murders, and his age.
The plan, which had been the Third's original plan before it moved to the Fifth Hokage, was to 'groom' Naruto to be the weapon of the village. He had gotten a large number of clans and people involved with this plan, not the entire village, but enough of it to seem as if it was the whole village. They had planned the attacks on Naruto during his young life, both physically and mentally, so that by 'thwarting' these attacks, Naruto would rely on him. Of course, Naruto would want friends of other ages, so the Third took this into account, and got Naruto to make 'friends', who would try to subtly coerce loyalty into the blond.
But when Naruto made friends what weren't ones that Hiruzen wanted the young Uzumaki to be with, and when Naruto wasn't showing signs of budging, the former Third Hokage had them removed, then Sealed away Naruto's memories of those friends, and created fake ones. Then when Naruto made more friends years later, they were also dealt with. The plan to mould Naruto had been successful once more, but when Jiraiya stepped into the picture, the destruction of the Uchiha Clan, and the death of the Third happened, a spanner had been thrown into the workings of the plan.
The Third's plan didn't die with him though, as he had contacted Tsunade before his demise, and convinced her to continue the plan, since Jiraiya would not.
The Seals that were placed on Naruto had been replaced numerous times, but because they were long lasting, they didn't need to be reapplied often.
It was a sickening way to implant loyalty into the blond, and it had worked.
But now, the plan was in tatters, Naruto was fully aware of it, and he was now holding all the cards as it were.
It would also explain why Naruto didn't return to any of the Uzumaki built restaurants, since they were built by the same clan that he was unknowingly a part of. The information was hidden from him.
The Third and Fifth both made comments about Naruto acting though, almost as if he knew what was going on. However the latter part wasn't true, Naruto didn't know what had been hidden from him, but Naruto had been acting, and hiding information from everyone. Naruto was cunning, intelligent, and always plotting.
The animatronics were in tears, tears of rage, sadness, and pure hatred. They were all shaking or twitching due to what they just read. They were furious, disgusted, and resentful. But they all turned their eyes to Naruto, the victim of all of this. It wasn't surprising that Naruto exploded like that, finding out that your entire life had been a lie from the get go would scar anyone, or even cause them to do… questionable acts, either to other people, or to themselves.
Consequences be damned. The minute he woke up, they were going to reintroduce themselves to Naruto, sort his fractured mind out, and get him out of Konoha along with the other animatronics to a new location.
"Goldie, I want you to contact ALL of the girls, tell them everything that's happened and tell them everything we have learned. Once Naruto wakes up, we'll tell him who we are, and then we'll take him to the other girls. They'll be happy to see him, and it will be a step in mending his mind. At the moment, his mind is shattered like a sword, but it can be repaired and rebuilt. We need to act, NOW!" Freya demanded, before getting determined. A fire seemed to light up in her eyes, she knew what she was going to do, and nothing was going to stop it.
"I'm going to do it now. It's going to be pulling at their heartstrings hearing this… no doubt you'll hear their screams of fury from here." Goldie replied to the brown bear. She was about to use her unnatural powers to send her ghost body to the other location, but before she could, a groan reached her ears.
The groan had reached the ears of all of them. Looking down, the inhabited animatronics realized that it came from Naruto. He was tossing and turning, and he was trying to wake up.
The reunion would come sooner, rather than later.
Naruto tried to open his tired eyes, with no success at first, but after struggling for a minute, he groggily opened his eyes again, noticing blurred figures above him, all of which were looking down at him. He wondered what time it was, as it was bright in the room he was in. Was it the hospital? No, the ceiling and walls looked damaged and decrepit. But also the figures over his head didn't look human, but at the same time, they did. They looked like anthropomorphic creatures, all of which were female.
He focused his eyes, seeing clearly that they were the animatronics that he had seen before, only this time he could see Foxy, and the full body of the golden bear he saw in the poster. His breathing sped up, clearly in a worried state of mind, due to him being surrounded by these robots.
Acting on instinct, Naruto bolts off of the lap of the golden bear so fast it looks as if he's flying, before landing in the middle of the Dining Area. He tries to calm his speeding heart, as his eyes focused on the animatronics, whom have moved into standing up positions. All of the girls' eyes were glued to him, all of which contained varying emotions along the lines of anxiousness, fear, and worry. They also had small sparks of hope in them, the reason for that one though escaped Naruto, as he was franticly thinking about what to do now.
"Naruto… Naru Whirlpool… please calm down, we're not going to hurt you." Bonnie said as her ears flattered against her head worriedly. She was wanting to cling on to him, and quickly try to sort things out.
Naruto narrowed his eyes at the bunny. "How do you know my name? Better yet, why the hell did you go through all my stuff?" He questions in a hostile tone of voice. He knew he knew them, but they were broken and damaged, how were they repaired? But also, why did that voice sound familiar? It sounded like a friend of his that was killed.
"Naru… laddie, ye wouldn't believe us… L-let the Cap'n explain, please?"
The blond looked at the pirate fox with the same angry eyes he had given the purple bunny. There is was again, the fox's voice also sounded similar to him, this couldn't be a coincidence. He looked down in sadness, and sighed loudly. "I read that you were all destroyed… the old bastard and the old hag both wrote it down…" There was also a side thought to that. 'That, and my true friends were killed by the old relic… but why does the bunny and the fox sound like two of them?'
Freya's dejected eyes locked with Naruto's. She was going to explain to him what the truth was. "We were going to be dismantled… but at the last second, it was stopped. We would be given a longer death sentence… locked away for all eternity in the… building. Mito Uzumaki repaired us, and opened up a new place, this place, while giving the other animatronics updates and repairs like she did for us. She died after completing them, and giving the company back to Fazbear, the original owner and founder, who was a close friend of hers. When we died, we had heard that you were killed… that blinded us… and we killed many people because of that. We were angry, we were hurt… we thought we lost our Naru Whirlpool…"
"It seems we were all… forced into this. You having your memories wiped, and us… being told you were dead." Chica interjected softly, knowing that this is where Freya was heading to in her speech to Naruto.
The blond seemed to inch closer to them, he was so hurt, and he had tears forming in his eyes. He recognized the voices of the androids, they sounded like his friends, it was a long shot, but maybe his friends were still around, different… but still alive. Unless.
"C-can you prove to me… that you're Yuuko, Maiko, Rei, Hitomi, and Chieko… I… I want to make sure." Naruto was scared, worried, but he wanted to believe, he wanted it to be them. The ones he had lost all those years ago, and now he had hopefully been reunited with.
The girls wanted to comfort him, but understood his reasoning. Goldie stepped towards Naruto gingerly, knowing what to do straight off the bat. She kept walking until she was standing right in front of him, towering over him. She raised her paw, and rested it on his chest where his heart was. Naruto let out a shaky breath when she did. He looked up at her eyes as she started to trace patterns onto his chest over his heart, making finger and hand gestures that only they knew. It was traces of spirals, animals, the stars and moon, before making hand gestures between the two of them. Naruto's eyes widen in happiness, they had remembered, it was truly them.
Naruto hugged Goldie tightly, earning a light squeak from the animatronic in question. She blushed lightly, and hugged him back. She could hear him sniffle every so often. The other girls gathered around, and tried hugging Naruto too. The poor boy was getting smothered by the girls due to his head ending up in their breasts. Their soft, strangely warm, furred bodies embracing him one after the other after they had given up trying to hug him at the same time.
After the heart-warming cuddles, they all went back to the stage, and chatted for ages. Not long into chats though, Goldie used her powers to send her ghost form to the other location, and the secret room in this location to tell the others everything what they had learned, and everything that had transpired not long ago. To keep Naruto off of the floor, Goldie had Naruto sit in her lap, much to the glares and jealousy of the others.
While this is happening, Naruto was chatting with the others since Goldie was using her powers to communicate with the others. The girls were telling Naruto what had happened to them after his 'death', from their prospective and Naruto's memory wiping from his. Mito had rebuilt them like they had explained earlier, but had upgraded them with very… natural capabilities for an organic, but completely bizarre when regarding synthetic life. The girls had gotten used to their more… noticeable female figures, their new bodies, but also their upgrades. The Uzumaki Clan was far, far more advanced than people thought, and clearly Mito had access to that technology before her death, but had hid it just in time as well.
Naruto listened to their stories about how they coped after his rumoured demise. It broke his heart to hear what they went through when they were told he had died.
He was strangely happy when they told him that they had killed a few people, and when asked, Naruto told them that those people had attacked him when he was growing up, since Hiruzen and Tsunade had both written down the individuals involved with the plan.
Naruto had also asked them why the restaurant was in such poor condition. Apparently, during his time away with Jiraiya, the annual electrical storms and Supercells struck Konoha fiercely, damaging the village. While the buildings in the village were repaired by their various owners, FFP was left due to not being in use.
When Naruto was about to tell them what he had been doing since their forced separation, Bonnie suggested waiting on that, and tell all of them at the same time, to save him repeating it over and over again. Naruto reluctantly agreed, but he was curious about meeting the others again. He hopes that they remember him, after all it had been nearly ten years.
Goldie then 'woke up', meaning she wasn't communicating with the other girls anymore, she had also teleported one of them to the other location, the one from the secret room in this FFP. She hugged Naruto from behind, her warm breath tickling his skin, her lips grazing his ear. Naruto shuddered lightly at both her furry hug, and her breath touching his skin.
The other girls looked at Goldie, they were annoyed at her hogging Naruto all to herself.
"I've told the others everything regarding what we've learnt, I've also told them that we have Naruto right now. Some were… sceptical, not surprising given the amount of time that passed, and you know, being told he was dead. But when we display Naru Whirlpool to them, they'll easily recognize who it is like we did." Goldie comment with optimism, her golden face bearing a bright smile.
"They best do, Goldie." Foxy said with a slight growl, letting the others know that if the other animatronics don't identify him, she would rip into them like there was no tomorrow.
"I think it's time to take you to the other place. You need to see them again, but also, their building is in much better condition than ours." Goldie announced to Naruto. The blond was about to question her about that, but she beat him to the punch. "Because that building and the former one was built by the Uzumaki Clan, and they had more postmodern methods of construction. Their buildings could withstand anything, this building wasn't built by Uzushio, and was built by Konoha. That alone should tell you that the build quality is-"
"Shit?" Foxy suggested for her in her pirate accent. Bonnie and Chica palmed their heads, Freya wanted to smack Foxy again, as she was irritated with her foul mouth. Naruto smiled, and chuckled at the fox's blunt opinion of the place.
Goldie didn't say anything for a second, before continuing. "-the build quality is appalling, shoddy, and- yeah, it is shit, Foxy is right about that."
Naruto burst out laughing, he couldn't hold it anymore.
The brown bear wanted to smack her face against the wall, she didn't like swearing at all. It was so vulgar, so uncivilized in her opinion. Instead of whacking her head against the wall, she resorted to twitching her eyebrow angrily.
"Shall we get going then, before Freya bursts a 'vein' over the profanities?" Bonnie barely got out through her own laughs at Freya's misfortune.
Naruto, upon regaining control of his laughing, nodded at Bonnie, agreeing with her. He wanted to see the others again, even if it would be hard at first.
He would face them head on, and convince them while staring into their eyes, not hiding behind Goldie or the ones here. His eyes lit up with determination, and he smiled brightly. "Yeah, let's get going. We need to get the family back together again. I won't hide either. I need to show them that I am still here, that I'm still alive. That I'm a voice, not an echo."
Goldie smiled at his declaration, as did the other girls. She raised a brow at his analogy, but it was interesting to say the least.
They all stood up, with Naruto having to reluctantly climb off of Goldie. Upon collecting his stuff and putting the bag over his shoulder once again, he stood in the middle of all of them, the blond was surrounded by the taller females.
Freya placed a hand on Goldie, Bonnie put her paw on Freya, Chica continued the circuit by placing her wing/hand on Bonnie, Foxy placed her hooked hand on Chica, while Goldie placing a bear paw on the fox and the other on Naruto.
They were all connected now, and not even two seconds later, they vanished, not in a flash, not a bang, not even a vortex. It was silent, almost as if they suddenly cloaked. The light that the golden bear had put up earlier, starting dimming, before fading away, returning the former establishment to the land of darkness.
END
All right this took much, much longer than expected to even start, but I'm glad I've started it now and got it off my mind. It took me some time to get 'round to this, as my Mac had died, so I had to get a new laptop, which I only got recently. I also lost the inspiration to write, and had a few other personal problems.
These are the names of the girls that Naruto was around when he was younger, and the animatronics that the souls of the girls now reside in. Some are hidden for the moment.
Female Foxy = Yuuko
Female Bonnie = Maiko
Female Golden Freddy = Rei
Female Freddy/Freya = Hitomi
Chica = Chieko
Female Toy Foxy/Mangle = Ryoko
Female Toy Bonnie = Aika
Female Toy Freddy/Freya = Kayo
Toy Chica = Tomoko
? ? = Sachiko
? ? = Anei
? ? = Kumori
? = Rena
? = Motoyo
? ?/? = Seika
I've also created a Mini Timeline, to help me plot when the various establishments closed down. To figure this out, I used Naruto's age as a reference. Naruto in this story is 17 years old.
Fredbear's Family Diner = Naruto was 4 years old.
Freddy Fazbear's Pizza = Naruto was 8 years old.
Freddy Fazbear's Pizza = Naruto was 14 years old.
So what do you all think, and no flaming either. I don't mind constructive criticism, but I can't stand people who just rip into it, not being constructive or giving any form of feedback that I could use to improve.
