Ch. 8 Uncovered plan

You were driving your car to the restaurant at the time Bonnie requested you in her note. You also saw that Bonnie wanted to meet you at the back of the restaurant wrote at the back of the note. As soon as you got there, you headed slowly to the back of the establishment. There still were a few people in the restaurant.

"Hi, Bonnie" You said as you saw the humanized female bunny standing beside the back door. You hardly could see since the street was dark; only a single streetlight illuminated the place.

"Oh! Hi! I was worried that you wouldn't come…" Bonnie said softly as she approached to you.

"Well… Can you now please tell me what's going on? All this tension is killing me…"

"Yeah… I'm sure of it. Sit here, this will take long" She said as she took your hand and dragged you to a near bench. "Well… I already told you why Freddy and the others are acting strange now. Our willing to protect the kids is really strong… it can make us to do extreme things as you can see…"

"Yeah, I think I can understand you; even if your methods aren't honorable…"

"(Y/N), listen to me. This night will be really hard. Now you have to control eight animatronics with the cameras and the music box, but there's still a way to get out of this" Bonnie said frowning which picked up your interest "Fazbear Entertainment designed us with a special feature if we get into the 'search-for-the-criminal' mode. When we're in this mode, our body modifies itself and we turn into our animalized form"

"Animalized form?" You asked curious.

"That's right. They designed us with this human appearance so children and grown-ups alike could see us friendly. They even gave us an emotion feature so when we're like this we feel and think like a normal human would do" All those things that Bonnie was telling you surprised you. You already knew that they were designed like that but when you stopped to think about it… you realized how amazing that was. A robot with a human appearance, feels and thoughts? What a great technology! And now that you remember, you hardly thought about them as robots during your stay here.

"However…" Bonnie continued "once we swap into our animalized form our human features disappear. When we're like that we're just like an animalized robot with the only intention but to find and beat the ones we have registered in our criminal data base…" Bonnie said with a sad and stern voice.

"Wow… That really sounds creepy… But how does that help me?"

Then, Bonnie smiled as her ears moved happily "Remember those tricks you used to avoid the older models? You know, the mask and the flashlight?"

"Sure I do" You replied.

"Well~… Those tricks don't work on us like this… But once we're into our animalized form… they sure do!" Bonnie said happily.

"Oh!" You yelled as you realized the entire situation. If they acted the same as the older models, then you shouldn't have any problems! "Even so… it will be hard" You said to the female bunny.

"That's why I need you to trust me…" She said as she stood up and looked at you pleading "I'll turn into that mode too, but I'll make sure to control myself. I'll pretend to try to kill you but I'll do every means at hand to keep you alive!" She said confidently as she held her fist near to her heart like she was making a promise.

You looked at her raising an eyebrow. She took your hand slowly and looked at you with her green beautiful eyes "Please… I know I'm horrible to be asking you this since I doubted you… But I don't want you to die…" She let out a single tear "I know that you aren't horrible enough to kill someone… You're one of the nicest people I've ever met… Please, trust in me…" She pleaded with her sweet soft voice.

You smiled and stroked her blue short hair "I trust in you… I'll leave my life in your hands, okay?" She opened wide her eyes. She didn't expect you to take this so calmly; after all, looks like she was right about you being so nice. She smiled as she couldn't resist the urge to hug you.

"I'll keep you alive… I promise…" You played with her bunny ears as you hugged. She giggled a bit "That tickles!"

"Whoops! Sorry!" You said nervously with a smile.

"I'll wait impatiently for midnight. Good luck!" Bonnie said joyfully as she let you go. You caressed her hair one more time. Without even thinking, you kissed her in the forehead which made her blush crimson.

"Bye Bonnie…" You said gallantly as you walked again to your car.

"B-B-Bye…" She said even if you were already away from her.

You entered into your car as you blushed too (Maybe that was out of the subject… Why did I kiss her? Hell! She's just a robot!) Now what Bonnie said became clear. They were made so human that you couldn't tell that they were robots… Maybe… you were starting to like her? But that was impossible! How could you fall in love with a machine?!

But… maybe it could work… She was beautiful, kind, caring… She could also feel like a human even if she was a robot… Maybe… it could work out…

Meanwhile, in the restaurant the animatronics were enjoying their time alone since there weren't almost any customer. BB, Mangle and Chica were playing Parcheesi while Freddy stood near them tapping his finger on his arm with impatience.

"Ha! Another token inside!" Chica yelled as she got her third token at home. Mangle had two while BB hadn't any token at home.

"Hey! Not fair! How do you do that?!" BB yelled upset.

"*giggle* I'm just lucky…" Chica teased him.

They heard the back door opening as Bonnie entered like if she didn't want anyone to hear her. "Where were you Bonnie?" Freddy asked the humanized bunny with the same tone of voice a father will have if his daughter came back home too late from a party.

"Oh! Eh… I was just looking for my guitar! I thought I lost it somewhere but I remembered that I left it at the show stage! My bad, he he he…" She said as she rubbed the back of her head and laughing nervously.

"Uh… I know you didn't but… how could you possibly lose the guitar at the back of the restaurant?" Mangle asked suspiciously.

"You never know! Sometimes you can find the most unexpected thing in the most unexpected place" Bonnie said trying to sound convincing.

"Enough, girls" Freddy said with his grave voice "You know what we need to do tonight. Prepare yourselves and be ready for this. And if you see an older model, let it be; after all, they are trying to do the same thing we want to do"

"Yes, Freddy…" All of the other robots said sadly. Freddy, Mangle and BB went to do other things as they waited. Only Bonnie and Chica remained at the dining area. Bonnie saw that Chica was looking at the ground and sighing.

"Are you alright, Chica?" Bonnie asked as she rested her hand on Chica's shoulder.

"Bonnie…" The humanized chicken said as she looked at the bunny with her eyes red from tears "I can understand how you feel… I don't want to do this… How could (Y/N) kill someone?" Bonnie hugged tightly Chica as she cried on Bonnie's shoulder.

"Chica… We can resolve this up. The only thing we need to do is stop this! Let's try to convince Freddy!" Bonnie said as she tried to persuade Chica.

"You know that I also want to stop this… but that is impossible… You already know when Freddy gets furious it's impossible to convince him…" Chica said sorrowful "Just… let me alone for a minute… I hope this night pass quickly…" The sad humanized chicken said as she stood up and headed through the hallway.

(Well… I tried to make this easier…) Bonnie thought.

12 AM. Night four started in your work here. You headed to the office avoiding the show stage; you felt that you didn't want to look at the animatronics.

Once you were in the office you checked if the flashlight worked and if the mask was in the right place (*sigh*… Alright. Take a breath (Y/N), tonight you'll need to focus more than ever…) You creaked your hand's bones with decision (So be it!)

As you expected, the phone rang again as your co-worker's message was heard.

"Hello? Hello? Uh, hey there, night four! I told you you'd get the hang of it! Okay, so maybe you already know about this but we've receive some serious claims from those death children's parents. As things are right now, I'm sure we'll have to close in a few days. But I want to emphasize that Fazbear Entertainment denies any wrongdoing.

(Wrong. I know that someone from Fazbear Entertainment is behind all this) You thought with anger as the phone guy continued talking.

Oh, and tonight try to avoid eye contact with the newer models. We're not sure what's going on with them, but they have been acting unusual, almost aggressive towards the staff. They interact with the kids just fine, but when they encounter an adult, they just...stare. Oh! I forgot to mention… we have a birthday scheduled for tomorrow. The boss told me to request you to come tomorrow; he wants you to control the animatronics so they don't do anything weird.

(A birthday? Why am I supposed to go? The animatronics interact with kids just fine, right? That's what you said. If that's the case, there wouldn't be any problems… *sigh* Okay, I'll go. Just in case)

Uh...Anyways, hang tight. It'll all pass. Good night!

(Alright… Time to get serious) You thought as you took your laptop to see what's going on at the show stage. Bonnie's statement became clear; Freddy, Chica and Bonnie all of them had an animal appearance right now. They weren't 'humans' anymore, just a robotic regular bear, bunny and chicken.

"I wonder how that works…" You asked to yourself. Then, you changed into the game zone area to see that BB was just now a creepy looking robotic toy with a balloon. And when you changed into the kids cove camera, Mangle was just now a white fox head with a bunch of metallic limbs and wires.

You looked at the clock. 1 AM. This was just the beginning of the night, but you knew that you could make it. After all, you weren't completely alone.

You changed into the prize counter camera and winded up the music box. You looked at it with curiosity; what was that creepy marionette hiding? And for what purpose?

Your thought trance got interrupted as you heard a high-pitched laugh. You changed into the other cameras trying to find the cause of the laugh. It was BB; you knew it once you changed into his camera and saw that he was no longer there.

(Oh, great… Now is when things are going down) You thought. You tried to find him once again but he wasn't anywhere; it was like if he disappeared. Casually, you saw that the older Bonnie was already exiting from the parts and service room. His slow steps looked like if he was saying 'I'm coming for yoooou'.

After that, you heard something in the main hall. You turned on the flashlight and saw that Foxy was already preparing for jump at you again. You flashed at him various times until he ran back to the parts and service room.

Just when you thought that you could relax, you noticed that the music box was about to end (Shoot!) You thought as you winded it up with your heart racing fast. Suddenly, you heard something coming from the left vent. You put on the mask quickly as you saw BB coming from it.

Once he went out, you put off the mask and groaned loudly "C'mon! I don't even have time to breath! Give me a break!"

Minutes later, things got slightly calmer. Once you reached 2 AM you saw that the older Freddy was coming from the hallway. You grabbed the mask so you can put it on quickly.

Then, you heard something coming from the right vent. You used the light and saw Bonnie coming from the vent. You looked at the blue robotic bunny with confusion. Was Bonnie really helping you? Was she there to kill you, just as the others?

But… somehow you felt that everything was alright. So you just let her be and focused on Freddy. Not only that, you also heard that something was coming from the left vent. Once you checked the cameras you saw the older Bonnie and newer Chica coming for you. You let out a little whimper (Please… Leave me alone already…)

The night was passing slowly but you hardly looked at the clock since there wasn't a moment for relax. You passed the entire night winding up the music box, avoiding the animatronics and guessing why Bonnie kept staring at you through the vent.

(Wait… Could it be…?) As this night progressed you noticed a certain pattern in the animatronics movement to get into your office: Both Freddys and Foxy were coming from the front hall; Chica, BB and old Bonnie were coming from the left vent; and lastly, Bonnie remained in the right vent.

But where Mangle and old Chica were? They didn't come in the entire night. Maybe they're supposed to come through the right vent just like Bonnie? That's when you understood why Bonnie was there; if she remained in that place, Mangle and old Chica couldn't enter into your office; so the number of foes you'll have to fight were less than before.

(Atta girl!) You thought impressed.

5 AM. There were just a few minutes until your shift ends and you were doing perfectly… until your flashlight turned off suddenly. You tried to turn it on but it wasn't working.

"Oh shit… Uh, Foxy… be a good fox and don't come here anymore… okay?" You said to yourself. However, you knew that was impossible (*sigh* Think (Y/N), think. There must be another solution for this)

You think about it carefully while you winded up the music box. Although, once you took down the laptop you saw Bonnie standing right in front of you. You became confused "Bonnie, you're not supposed to be in the vent?" You whispered.

Suddenly, she let out a deafening scream as she jumped to your neck and made you fall to the floor. You were now confused. Was she really helping you? Did she… betray you?

"Go limb" You heard her soft voice whispering.

"What?"

"Just do it" She whispered with hurry. You decided to obey her and you relaxed all your muscles of your body. It looked like if you were death. Then, she grabbed you by the leg and dragged you though the hallway very slowly (Maybe she just want me to pretend being death to buy time) You thought.

While she was dragging you to the parts and service room, you could see the other animatronics around and looking at you with their wide and creepy eyes. Looks like they think that you're dead.

Finally, Bonnie and you were at the parts and service room. She was about to close the door and suddenly the clock bell rang… It was finally 6 AM.

You opened your eyes and stood up, sighing in relief. You looked at Bonnie, who was now turning into her humanized form again. She looked at you with a smile "We did it…" She said as she couldn't resist the urge to run and hug you tightly.

"Tonight was a really hard night, eh?" You asked as you stroked the back her head slowly.

"I thought I was going to lose you…" She said sadly as she let out tears from her eyes.

"Don't worry… I'm right here" You said softly to try to calm her. She looked at you frowning.

"Go away…" She said with seriousness.

"What?"

"Go away from this place. Tell the owner that you don't want to work here anymore. That way you will be safe" She said with confidence, she knew that it was the best for you. But… somehow, she also felt too sad for that statement.

"Don't worry Bonnie. I still have another night and I'm sure we will do it as well as we did today" You said trying to calm her.

"Are you entirely sure…?"

"Of course! Don't worry anymore"

"Well… Okay… See you this afternoon, right?"

"You bet. You have a birthday if I can remember. I'll be there" You said. Bonnie smiled and exited the room, leaving you alone. You looked around and noticed something strange.

"Hmm? Where's Golden Freddy costume?" As far as you know, only the older Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy were the ones who moved; Golden Freddy's one didn't move so far. But now, that costume was nowhere to be seen… Where could it go?

Bonnie went again to meet with her robotic companions who were now in their humanized forms too.

"Well… We couldn't get him tonight…" BB said with depression.

"We still have one more night. Make sure you kill him, got it?" Freddy spoke angrily.

"Freddy, please. Can't we just let him be? You and I know well that he won't do anything" Bonnie spoke again, trying to convince Freddy one more time.

Freddy giggled evilly "It's funny that you say that…"

"What?"

"You think I'm dumb? I noticed that you were trying to save him"

"W-What?! N-No! I-I-I wouldn't d-do such a-a thing!" Bonnie said nervously.

"Then can you explain me what were you doing in the vent? You were almost the entire night in there" Mangle asked confused.

"Oh… Eh… I… Eh…" Bonnie tried to think in something but no words came out.

"Hmph. So you really were helping him" Freddy said grimly.

Bonnie accepted it "*sigh* It's just… I can't Freddy… I will never believe that (Y/N) is capable of kill someone. So I won't let you touch him; you'll have to step over my dead body" Bonnie said frowning and confident.

The other animatronics looked at Freddy expectant. He growled "If that's so… I already warned you that you'll pay the consequences if you ever disobey me. Get her" Freddy commanded to the other animatronics.

"What?!" Mangle yelled.

"We really have to? Can't be solve this with a game of poker?!" BB said with obvious disagree.

"Freddy please, come to your senses! Bonnie's right, we're not acting right anymore!" Chica yelled.

"I. Said. Get her!" Freddy yelled. The other robots sighed in depression as they glared at Bonnie "I'm sorry…" Chica whispered with sadness.

Bonnie just stood there, she closed her eyes and gulped (Good luck (Y/N)… And please, stay alive…)

To be continue…

Oh oh! Looks like Bonnie has been uncovered! What will Freddy and the others do to her? And where did the Golden Freddy costume go? You'll find out, don't worry!

See you next chapter!
