Chapter 12

Vincent was pacing back and forth in the dining room, his employees and the robots lined up against the stage. He held his hands behind his back, and he looked like a military sergeant explaining a battle plan to his troops. All the security guards, including Zoe, looked a bit skittish, like they were afraid they were going to get fired or something. Seeing her mom like that made Mari kind of concerned. Zoe was usually never scared of Vincent. Or maybe she was just worried about what would happen on their first day of work. Either way, it made Mari nervous.

Vincent kept pacing as he began to speak. "Alright, we're starting work today. We're opening at noon today, but every day after this one, we'll be opening at ten in the morning. I've assigned everyone jobs. Mari, BB, you two will be in the Prize Corner, watching the kids in the ball pit and giving out prizes when they win at games."

"Okay." Mari nodded.

BB grinned. "Sure thing."

Vincent turned to the Toys. "Tia, Teddy, and Tonnie, you three will be making pizza and serving it to the kids."

Tia gave a slight nod as she twisted her hair in two braids on either side of her head. "Alright!"

Teddy snorted. "Seriously?"

Tonnie adjusted his vest. "I can do that."

"Freddy, Chica, and Bonnie, you'll be in the Party Rooms, organizing games and entertaining the kids."

"Yes sir."

"Sure!"

"And deal with those brats? Really?"

"Shut up, Bonnie." Vincent narrowed his eyes at him before turning away. "Foxy, Mangle, you'll be in Pirate's Cove, playing with the other kids."

"AYE-AYE, CAP'N!" they both shouted simultaneously.

"But maybe don't be that loud. Springtrap, Goldie, you'll be standing at the doors and basically welcoming everyone to the new Freddy Fazbear's."

"Alright then."

"Sounds easy enough."

"Mike, Jeremy, Zoe, you guys will be walking around, keeping the kids away from the Parts and Service room, make sure no one gets bitten this time, all that."

"Alright, boss."

"Uh, okay, I guess..."

"Sure."

"Scott, Fritz, you two will be on the night shift. You can go home and rest until then."

Scott shrugged. "'Kay."

Fritz looked a little skittish, however. "Will it be... safe? You know, the night shift?"

Vincent shrugged. "You tell me. You're the one who programmed them."

Teddy rolled his eyes. "Yeah, Tubby. Besides, it's not like we would even be awake at night."

Fritz shot Teddy a glare. "Hey, I'm technically your father. Don't talk to me like that."

Bonnie snorted. "Okay, Dad. You can relax. We're not gonna murder you in the middle of the night or anything."

"Don't worry, Fritz!" Chica said, smiling at the security guard. "Everything will be okay! Right guys?" She looked to the other robots.

Tia nodded, tying hair elastics into the ends of her braids. "We'll stay in the kitchen, I promise!"

Vincent raised an eyebrow at Fritz. "See?" He glanced up at the clock above the doors. "Okay, we've already put up some flyers around town, and put an ad in the paper, so there should hopefully be some people here in an hour-" He was suddenly interrupted by a loud squeal that sounded like it came from outside.

Mari tilted her head. What was that?

Everyone furrowed their eyebrows and looked towards the glass doors. Outside, a group of maybe five girls stood gaping at them through the glass. One of the girls pointed at the glass. "FOXY!" she shrieked. Then she and her friends exploded into a fit of squeals and giggles, a couple of them even whipping out their phones and taking pictures.

Mari raised an eyebrow and turned to look at Foxy, who looked seriously flustered. "What is that all about?" she questioned.

Foxy blinked. "I don't know, to be honest."

Teddy rolled his eyes. "Those girls are ridiculous."

Bonnie crossed his arms. "Yeah. I mean, Teddy and I look as good as he does," he said, gesturing towards Foxy. "Maybe even better."

Tia waved cheerfully at the small crowd that was starting to gather outside the restaurant. "Hi! Welcome to Freddy's!" Some of the people waved back, and she giggled. "They seem so friendly!"

Tonnie backed up against the stage. "I don't know. They're scaring me a little..."

Mangle gave a laugh and put his arm around Tonnie's shoulders. "Calm down and quite bein' such a yellow-belly!"

Tonnie furrowed his eyebrows and looked down at his bright blue vest and black leggings. "I'm not wearing any yellow, though."

Mangle chuckled and ruffled Tonnie's sky blue hair with his free hand, making a couple of the girls outside squeak and start rambling about- boats, maybe? Mari wasn't sure. "Relax. It's just an expression. It means that you should quit bein' a coward!"

Tonnie nodded in understanding. "Oh. Okay."

Freddy adjusted his bow tie and straightened his top hat. "Shall we open the doors, now that people are here?" he asked Vincent.

Vincent hesitated, staring at the mob outside. "Alright," he said finally. "Open up the doors."

Mari looked at the people, a lot of whom were screaming and pounding on the doors. They were still yelling about boats- no, ships, it sounded like. Whatever, she thought. Same thing, anyway.

"Are you sure?" Zoe asked. "They look a bit hyper."

Vincent shrugged. "Might as well. Besides, they won't hurt anyone."

Scott walked over to the doors, pulling a keyring out of his pocket. He took a deep breath and unlocked the doors.
