In the dark forests of California...
Night: 12:01 p.m.
"Freddy! Get back here!"
The calls of Nigel Esben, a.k.a. Nightmare, echoed around the 16-year old Freddy Esben's ears, who paid those calls no heed and continued running through the wild forest.
I have to get there, Freddy thought, taking leaps and sprints into the rocky road. I have to get home. To mother. To father.
"Freddy! Please! Stop running!"
Freddy didn't listen. He continued running through the forest, bruising himself with the thorns of the large rose thickets he sometimes collided with. Bears have a really good sense of sight, which always helped him go through the darkness.
He was unlucky this time, though, since his brothers have really good night vision. And what's more, they run very fast. Much faster than he does.
Still, he continued running. Nothing's stopping me now.
In the distance, he could see fireworks scattering in the dark night sky, and the several cheers of people from a nearby town. Freddy immediately looked away, tears brimming in his eyes.
They used to watch the fireworks explode. They used to shout "Happy New Year" merrily every first day of the new year, celebrating another successful and prospering year. Every country did this.
Now it wasn't the merriest of New Years. They just thank God for another new year because they got lucky.
Lucky enough not to be caught by scientists, that is.
Ever since it was announced that William Afton, son of the Testing Institution's Overseer, Alistair Afton, had succeeded the position of his father, he did merciless things. Every hybrid that is seen is captured! Every hybrid that is captured is interrogated!
What's worse...
If the hybrid refuses to give information...
They are tortured until they give in.
It scared Freddy. It scared him; the possibility of a Hunter suddenly emerging from one of the trees and catching him and his brothers.
But he had to see his parents. He just had to.
With another leap, he landed on another cliff just a few meters away from the cliff he had just been running onto. He looked up, seeing the glowing blue and brown eyes of his brothers.
Luckily for him, another cliff was waiting underneath, making him look up at them with a smirk. He jumped on that said cliff, then continued on his routine.
"FREDDY!"
The screams of his brothers fell upon deaf ears, as Freddy continued to run down the road.
Nigel kept on running, trying to get a glimpse of his 16-year old brother.
Dammit, Freddy!He thought, an irritated expression on his face, mixed with worry for the younger bear hybrid. He used the trees for support every time he stumbled down, or if he wanted to stand and find Freddy.
He turned his head everywhere, but no sight of the bear was found. Dammit, where is he? He looked around once more, but Freddy wasn't anywhere to be found.
No... he couldn't have gone far enough, could he? He said to himself, jumping off to the second cliff that was just right below the cliff he just stood up on.
If he goes home, the hunters...
"Nigel, where is he now?" Gold said from behind the black-haired hybrid, walking up to him with a worried look on his face. "He still hasn't gone that far, hasn't he?"
Nigel sighed, then looked towards the direction to where Freddy is heading. "Unfortunately..."
"I'm afraid we can't save him on time."
Freddy peeked from behind the trees, trying to see if his brothers managed to catch up to him, and also to try to see if his parents were still in the house.
Freddy smirked once he discovered that his brothers were no where to be found. The brown bear hybrid then turned to the direction of their house, and smiled to himself.
Finally, I can get to see my parents again...
He jumped down the cliff and swinged on the branches of a tree, before finally landing on the ground, as puffs of dirt were emitted by his shoes like smoke. The bear looked up to their broken-down house, with a smile of determination on his face.
He sighed, walking up to the door, with a small smile on his face. "Mother? Father?" He called out, knocking on their hazel brown door. "I'm home."
When no one answered, though, he blinked, confusion filling his eyes. "Mother?" He called out once again, opening the door a little so that he could peek in. "Father?"
This was it. Freddy wondered whether they were here or not. He pushed the door wide open and entered the house, looking around for any signs of his parents.
The kitchen... why is it so messy? Freddy thought to himself, gazing at the misplced utensils and knocked-over pots. Mom and Dad would never leave the furniture messy like this...
"Where are your sons?"
Freddy's ears perked up at the voice.
"W-We told you! You won't find them!"
"Just shut up and tell us already!"
"Please! We don't know where they are anymore!"
"Liars!"
The 16-year old's eyes widened in horror.
No...
What followed was the sound of a gunshot, and the scream of his mother.
No!
Freddy darted through the halls, towards the stairs to the second floor.
As he advanced quickly to the next floor, he could hear the voices getting nearer.
"Now, madam, this is your last chance. You tell us where you children are, and we'll set you free."
Mother!
"No! I won't tell you anything! I do not know where my children are, and even if you set me free, I'd stil be a broken woman! You killed my husband!"
Mother, no...
"It's better if you just kill me, then!"
Freddy reached out for the knob of the third room, furiously pushing it open.
"Mother!"
The sound of a gun being shot resonated around the room, as Freddy's parents lay on the ground, blood soaking their bodies.
Freddy panted, eyes wide with tears.
Mother... Father...
The tears of the teenage bear trickled down his cheeks.
One of the hunters grinned, sending a shiver down his spine.
The hunter reached out for his walkie-talkie, and with a menacing grin on his face, he spoke...
"We got one."
And after the hunter said that, other hunters jumped at him, trapping him with chains.
"Mission: accomplished."
The only thing that Freddy remembered, after he was struck unconscious, was the screamsof his brothers, calling out to him from the distance.
"FREDDY!"
That was the last thing he knew.
The last thing he would ever know.
Present day
June 18, 2043
Testing Institution, Room #1901
Morning: 6:40 a.m.
Freddy opened his sky blue eyes.
Two years... ever since I got captured...
Freddy shivered, a sad and regretful expression on his face, as he rested his chin on both arms.
He was sitting in this canvas of a room, staring blankly at the floor, awaiting another punishment from the humans. He hugged his legs tightly, the cold air making his body shiver. He closed his eyes and listened to the sound of the silence around him.
But he knew it wouldn't be silent soon. The barbaric scientists will be here any moment now, and he will be enduring painful torture from them once again.
Oh, Lord... when will this end?
Cold tears ran down his face, rolling down his cheeks up to his neck. His body began to tremble more as he rested his head upon an arm, sobbing quietly. If only he was back with his brothers in that forest... he had been so stubborn as to go back to their old house when they were still human, when the substance still hadn't changed their lives.
Thinking about his brothers made him sob even more. They could be out there, searching for him... They must be very worried about him right now.
I did not listen to them... this was well deserved of me.
Freddy could still remember their faces; There was Nigel (known as Nightmare, now that he was a black bear hybrid), a black haired young man of twenty years of age, and who always donned anything black... he was the eldest of them brothers. Shadow and Gold, who were both 19-year old men, with blonde and black hair, respectively, were still studying College before the substance struck. Favien and him were both 18; Favien has white hair with violet streaks lined in his hair. Freddy was a man with brown hair and a brown suit always occupied his body. Teddy was the teenager of the group, living his teenage dreams before he became a hybrid. He has a hint of hazel brown painted all around his body. Then there was Aurum, a 13 year old boy that looked very much like Gold, and the attitude of Favien. His three thirteen year old other brothers: Fredrick, Alfred, and Ravier, all looked like Freddy (they were twins, after all), but the attitude of Nigel was present in them.
They all had strikingly blue eyes, except Nigel, who had reddish brown.
He sobbed more and more. Those were the days when everything was still peaceful, when the substance still didn't get to them. Now they are in the woods, running endlessly in this hellhole of a life, as scientists continue to hunt for them all.
I would never forgive myself if one of them ended up in this laboratory.
He heard footsteps coming from outside the room.
His brown bear ears perked up; there was someone coming.I have to prepare myself. He quickly wiped off all the tears in his eyes, since it was best for him not to show them that he was crying. They would bully him again.
He jumped when the door was furiously pushed open. Two scientists were there; one of them had red hair and poison ivy green eyes, and a menacing grin was plastered on his face. The other had cerulean blue eyes and brown hair, with a face mask hiding his mouth. But the way his eyes stared right at Freddy's lighter ones meant he was up to something sadistic, just like what the red-headed scientist was planning.
He gave up wiping his tears and let them flow again instead. There was no use trying to hide that you were crying out of misery.
The green-eyed man chuckled darkly, and green eyes met with sky blue ones. "Freddy Fazf*ck 1901." he said, walking slowly towards him. His brown haired companion stayed outside the door, a clipboard in his hand, and a ballpen on the other.
Freddy lifted his head up to the direction of the scientist, tears still visible in his eyes. They continued to flow from his cheeks up to his neck.
The brown bear hybrid recognized both scientists. They were both sadistic, cruel, with minds fucked-up in the head and you couldn't imagine how.
The redheaded sadist, with piercing green eyes. He was the one assigned to experiment on Freddy, and he did a really great job doing things to the poor bear. This young, 20-year old man, Freddy could tell, was already born a sadist.
Fritz Smith.
His companion, the brown haired man with piercing blue eyes, always observed the episodes within this experiment. That menacing grin under his face mask always sent shivers down Freddy's spine. This 25-year old man is always up to everything, even torture.
Mike Schmidt.
Freddy feared both men. In fact, he feared all of the scientists in this institution.
Fritz hummed while walking towards Freddy, his hands laced behind his hand, and a smirk pasted upon his face. He looked really childish, but once you tell him he was childish, he could actually torture you any moment.
Noticing the tears that trickled down his eyes, Fritz gasped, green eyes wide. He touched his chest with his hand and cocked his head to the side, his eyebrows furrowed into a sad face. "Oh, what a shame, Mike! Freddy is crying!" he turned to Freddy again, bowing to get a closer look at the bear's face. "Why were you crying, Freddy? Is it because... you want to get out of here?"
Freddy stared at the scientist with wide eyes. Part of him had that reason, but it was mostly because of his brothers.
There was no way he was going to tell Fritz the true reason why he was crying.
All Freddy could do as a reply was close his eyes and cover them again with his arm. He sobbed once again, this time, much louder than before.
Freddy cocked his head to the side, sniffing. He then stared at Fritz again, who was already smirking, the mock concern still in his eyes. "I... I wasn't... thinking about escaping..." he stuttered, sniffing, wiping some tears off his face.
Fritz gasped once again, clutching his chest. "Then what, Freddy? Tell me so that we can help you!" he said, both hands gripping the brown bear hybrid's bare shoulders.
Freddy did not respond. He buried his face upon his arms once again, sobbing. The hands gripping his shoulders is a sign.
A sign that the torture is about to begin.
There was a long pause of silence rounded between the two scientists and the bear hybrid. The only sound coming from the room were the sobs made by Freddy.
Fritz broke the silence by saying in a low voice... "If you won't tell us..."
Freddy lifted his head up once again, and sky blue eyes shot wide open when Fritz's green eyes glared at him. His mouth was up in a menacing grin.
"...then we'll let you tell us."
After those words, one of Fritz's hands jumped to Freddy's brown hair and gripped it powerfully, making Freddy scream in pain. Fritz then mercilessly lifted the bear's head up, while his victim couldn't do anything but grip weakly, with more tears coming out of his eyes.
Fritz leaned to Freddy's ear, smirking that menacing way he always did. "Tell us Freddy. Why were you crying earlier...?" he asked in a whispery tone.
Freddy shivered. Aside from the cruelty of the voice, he could feel lust come out of it, too.
It was only a bare five seconds before Fritz grinned at Freddy's ear once again. "You're not going to tell, are you, Freddy?" he asked in a menacing tone, all the while making Freddy shiver once again.
Fritz got away from Freddy's ear and looked at him once again, sneering. "You'll tell us one way or another, or endure the wrath of our own hands." he hissed, his grip on the vandyke brown hair so strong, Freddy screamed in the intense pain.
Freddy sobbed. "N-No..." he whispered, pained.
Fritz's sneer turned into the menacing grin from earlier. "No?" he slapped Freddy hard on the cheek. "No?! Well Fazf*ck, you've been foolish enough to answer me with that f*cking response, son of a b*tch!"
Oh no, Freddy thought, eyes wide in horror. He's venting again. Oh God he's venting again.
Fritz finally let go of Freddy's hair, but kicked him in the abdomen at the same time. "Talk, you son of a b*tch!" he shouted, kicking the bear once again hard in the stomach.
Freddy choked up blood as the red-head kicked again, closing his blue eyes and trying to defend himself. But I can't do it. he thought, receiving another swift kick on the stomach by Fritz.I can't fight back. I don't want to hurt anybody.
Fritz growled, looking at Freddy with eyes of fury. "You son of a mute f*cking b*tch." he kicked him once again. "When the f*ck will you even talk!?"
"Fritz, you have to stop that!" Freddy heard Mike shout at the back.
Fritz turned to Mike and glared. "It isn't your f*cking job to torture and get f*cking information from a sh*t*ss of a bear hybrid who can't even tell me what the f*ck is wrong with him!" he kicked him once again, and Freddy cringed. "Seriously, of all hybrids, you must be the dumbest of them all, you f*ckn*t."
Freddy sobbed, his tears flooding the side of his face, and created a pool on the floor.
Mike snickered, which caused Fritz to snarl at him. "Don't just laugh there! Do something about this f*cker!" he exclaimed, turning to Freddy and glared at him.
Freddy held both hands and pulled them close to his chest. He was shivering either because of the cold, or because of the pain inside him.
Mike laughed again. "I've got better ideas than you kicking that dimwit until he dies." he said, which got a scowl from Fritz. "Now if you just come here, you'll know what to do."
Freddy sighed, though softer than usual.Finally, it would end in a moment... he thought, closing his eyes, breathing heavily.
Fritz glared at him and kicked him once again. "Don't think you are safe, f*ck*ss." he growled before leaving him behind in the room.
It had been a mere five minutes since Freddy was being physically tortured by Fritz. He was still lying down on the floor, waiting for any more torture to come to him.
After those five minutes of conversation with Mike, Fritz walked back to Freddy's direction, with a sinister grin on his face. He had something he held on his hand.
A needle.
Injection.
When Freddy saw the object, he started to panic. No, he hasn't experienced injections before. During the old days, he hasn't experienced an injection being pressed against his skin and went inside so that it could fill you with little substances that can cure people from their sickness.
No, please... he thought, tears flowing in his eyes once again. Please don't do it. Please don't.
He had grown with a fear of needles. Even though he hadn't experienced it, he felt as though that would be painful. Especially the substances that will be injected in you.
Fritz smiled and knelt next to the hybrid bear, chuckling darkly. "Sit still, Freddy. The more you struggle, the more it will hurt." he said, and with one swift move, he injected the yellow substance on Freddy's arm.
Freddy couldn't move. All he could do was shiver. The substance injected to his body was spreading quickly, and Freddy could feel the immediate pain spreading rapidly in just a second.
No... no no no no no... he repeated in his mind. Oh God. Please. Don't let this be as painful as I thought it would be. He prayed, to God, to any deity that could hear his pleas... he hopes the substance would wear off quickly.
Freddy could see from the corner of his eye that Fritz smirked, removing the needle from the fragile skin. "There. All done." he said in a calm and satisfied tone. "This should keep you from getting your mouth shut."
Freddy wanted to know what the effect of that substance is.
And he was about to find out.
Fritz turned Freddy over, and that caused him to now lie on his back.
Pain suddenly jolted inside him, like a spark of electricity.
Freddy screamed, arching his back. Screaming made the pain worse. He shifted on the floor, sobbing, and that only made the pain worsen even more.
"IT HURTS! IT HURTS!" he screamed, not realizing that it made the pain spread very quickly. He shifted multiple times, trying to take the pain away, but it was still there. An ear-piercing scream echoed around the room, maybe even echoed outside of the room.
Fritz frowned and marched towards Freddy. He then knelt and, with his hand, he slapped Freddy, making the bear cry even more. "Shut up! Shut the f*ck up!" he screamed at the bear, who sobbed painfully in response.
"How ironic," Mike declared, crossing his arms with a smirk. "One time you wanted him to speak up, and now that he's spoken, you want him to shut up. Great irony, Fritz," he continued, clapping his hands.
Fritz snarled. "Shouting is not talking, Mike!" he retorted with a shout, hands curled up into fists.
"Well, technically it is," Mike said, an index finger raised. "in a louder way."
Fritz snarled. He turned back to the crying bear, who was sobbing much more softer than before.
He was about to slap him again when a hand blocked him from doing so.
Fritz's eyes widened, and he snarled once he saw that Mike was holding his wrist. "Let go, Mike!" he snapped, trying to yank his hand away. "Let go before I even think about killing you!"
Mike glared at Fritz. "Don't do it. Let the kirakowa'a do its job." he said. "Then afterwards you can have your... fun."
Fritz raised an eyebrow before he finally got what Mike was saying. He grinned. "Yes, yes. Fun, indeed." he giggled maniacally, standing up and finally yanking his hand away from Mike's grip.
Freddy still shivered on the floor, but he could feel the pain slowly subsiding. Is it... over...? he thought, the tears finally slowing down.Is the pain... gone...?
Everything went silent after that.
Freddy stopped shivering. He was back in his position earlier, a tortured body that wasn't moving on the floor. His breathing returned to normal right away, and the last tear dropped to the floor with the puddle of tears at the side of Freddy's head.
Fritz didn't say anything. He turned to Mike, asking: "Is... the poison gone?"
Mike nodded. "Yes. It is." he said. He then walked toward a cart and got a seedling, planted on a small plastic vase. He then showed it to his companion. "Kirakowa'a usually take effect about 30 seconds, but sometimes if the plant is already fully grown up and you make it into a poison, it would take a minute. That poison was absorbed from a young kirakowa'a plant." he explained, with Fritz nodding with every word.
Freddy moved his eyes towards the two scientist's direction, panting, and still on his position. Kirakowa'a... he repeated the plant's name in his mind. He closed his eyes. I've heard about people... poisoning other hybrids with this plant.
Fritz chuckled and turned to Freddy. "Well, I guess this is time I have my fun, is it?" Fritz asked, picking Freddy up in a bridal style and throwing him on the bed nearby.
Mike nodded in response. "Yep. Definitely." he said. He then walked over to the bear and touched his chin with an index finger. "He can't say no if he's in this weak condition."
Freddy cocked his head to the side, then to the opposite side. Tears began to flow once again.
Fritz chuckled. "Oh, shut up and just enjoy this." he snarled, then mounted the bear. "You'll love this experience."
He unbuckled his belt and threw his pants at the floor, which he did to his brief. Once all that was done, he positioned his erection at Freddy's entrance.
Mike grabbed his clipboard and pen, and then turned back to the two. He nodded at Fritz and then started to write something down on his clipboard.
Then, once Fritz started thrusting in and out of the poor bear, the rape began.
Freddy's mind was the first to scream. A-Aaah! He shouted in his mind, the pain finally overcoming his body after each thrust Fritz did.
Screams of pain and moans of pleasure can be heard from outside the room. You might find this really disturbing as you pass through the halls... but scientists don't really care at all.
It went on for a few more minutes.
Pain and pleasure conquered the bear's mind, as his torturer kept on going inside him.
Fritz, after cleaning himself off, picked up his brief and pants and put them back on. "That was fun, Fazfuck," he said, glancing at Freddy. "Don't expect that the next time we meet would be the same. The real torture is on." he stated. He then grinned menacingly and walked off the bed.
"That was... hot, Fritz," Mike said, glancing at his clipboard. "I even got a bit hard while seeing you and that wimp."
"Heh, I know." both of their voices seemed to go to a lower volume as they walked away from the room, closing the door of the room behind them. "Next time I rape him, I'm gonna make him scream my name in front of me."
And with that, the voices trailed into oblivion.
They were finally gone.
Freddy sighed, panting hard. He hadn't felt that much pain in his first two days in the asylum. And he's afraid he's going to get something much worse than this the next day.
With that, Freddy abandoned all thoughts engulfing his mind and closed his eyes to sleep.
ESBEN: Scandinavian form of Old Norse Ásbjorn, meaning "divine-bear."
The Esben Brothers:
- Freddy Esben (Freddy Fazbear)
- Gold Esben (Golden Freddy/Fredbear)
- Theodore "Teddy" Esben (Toy Freddy)
- Shadow Esben (Shadow Freddy)
- Nigel Esben (Nightmare)
- Favien Esben (Funtime Freddy)
- Aurum Esben (Fredbear Plush in FNaF 4)
- Fredrick, Alfred, and Ravier Esben (Nightmare Freddy plushies in FNaF 4)
- Yuma Esben (Yenndo)
Oh, by the way, I just made up the kirakowa'a plant/poison. Here's the definition:
Kirakowa'a - In the far distant future, this plant was used as a poison to inflict pain on the insides of a person when injected to them. The poison would last up to 30 seconds, but the longer time would be about a minute. This poison is from a new, 'medicinal' plant that grew along the cold mountains of the Himalayas. Birds are immune to the kirakowa'a plant, but not to the medicine.
The more explicit version of this chapter can be found in the AO3 version of this story. If you want to read it, I suggest you visit my AO3 account. I go by "TanteiCzarinaMae" there (apparently FanFiction is being a d*ck to me because it wouldn't properly give you a link. That's why I want to challenge you in trying to find the account on AO3).
Thank you for reading! I hope to see you in the next chapter!
