2F – Superstar Lane - Cassidy's Apartment

9:30 AM

Gregory was in Cassidy's well lit green room, with posters of herself, colors themed around her, the usual couch for guests to sit on and hang out with Cassidy, much like the others have in their green rooms, with photo op areas, and plushies of themselves all over, a vanity for quick touch ups on makeup or hair like everyone else has.

He walked through her back storage room and then was met with the door to her apartment.

He took a deep breath and knocked.

Cassidy was in her black shorts, blue hoodie, with her black hair in a ponytail. The animatronic chicken girl based off Glamrock Chica had to practically drag herself out of bed. The news of the gang being abducted hit her pretty hard. She would never forget when she arrived at the Pizzaplex last night to see it surrounded by law enforcement and Marta had delivered the news to her. She broke down sobbing and Mangle came out to console her, much like a mother figure and bring her to her apartment.

"Who is it?" Her voice sounded tired. Even if she was a robot, it didn't mean she couldn't be mentally tired.

"It's…Gregory…" The boy said.

"Oh! Gregory….Hold on." Cassidy said unlocking the door. She swung it open, the boy standing before her.

"Can I come in?" He asked.

"Yeah, of course, come in." She beckoned him in. She closed the door behind him.

"C'Mon sit. Did you want anything to drink?" Cassidy said as she had him sit on her living room couch and she sat next to him cross-legged. He could tell she was trying to hide how she was feeling as to not make him anymore worried.

"I just wanted to check up on you, and make sure you were doing okay, or at least as okay as you can be." Gregory said.

"Heh….I'll be honest Gregory, I don't think I've felt this down since the day I first died as a human child all those years ago….It's admittedly been a rough few hours for me since everyone was taken but….this isn't my first rodeo…as fucked up that is to say. I'll be okay…don't worry about me. I think we should be more worried about you right now." Cassidy said putting a hand on his shoulder as she spoke softly and showed concern for him.

"I wasn't going to be talking about myself, but I guess now I will." Gregory said hesitating.

"Gregory it's okay…it's just you and me here. I'm all ears." Cassidy said.

"Sigh….I already lost my birth parents and biological family not too long ago…I don't know if I could handle losing Freddy, Roxanne or any of you guys. Especially with how close I've become with everyone over the past year. You guys have become my new family, and that feeling of a family, is something I hadn't felt in a long time. I don't want to lose it again." Gregory said.

"Well, we both already have felt what's like to lose a family once, and neither of us want's to feel that again, so your not alone in that at all Gregory. What your feeling is what I'm feeling too. And truthfully even though there is nothing you or I can do right now to find Vanny sooner, at the very least we've still got each other." Cassidy said.

Gregory was silent.

Cassidy hugged him.

"Your like a little brother to me. We will get through this together Gregory. I promise. And the others will find out where they went and will go get them." Cassidy said trying to re-assure him.

"Thanks Cassidy. I wanted to ask, how's Chica? I heard she was involved in the fight with those soldiers with high tech anti-animatronic weapons, but they didn't take her. Thankfully. How is she doing? I heard just took a good hit from one of them. Is she in her room?" Gregory asked.

"She's in her apartment down the hall back in Rockstar Row, she had some cuts and scrapes to her soft synthetic skin but parts and service patched up the damages. Thankfully all her injuries were minor and nothing that would require giving her a new shell over her endo or replacing any kind of parts inside. She hasn't really come out since the incident. I tried knocking on her door a few times, texting her, sending her a message directly through my HUD, but no answer." Cassidy said.

"Well I bet she will answer for me." Gregory said getting up.

"Gregory I don't know if that's a good idea, she's been through a lot." Cassidy warned.

"So have we, you and I are going through the same exact thing. We all want Freddy and the others back home safe. And right now, she needs us. She's like our aunt in this family. Let's keep trying to be there for her." Gregory said.

"Okay. Lead the way superstar." Cassidy said putting on slippers before following Gregory out her apartment door.

2F – Rockstar Row – Chica's Apartment

9:45 AM

"Just please, leave me alone." Chica could be heard yelling.

"Chica. C'mon, it's me, Gregory. Can we talk for a minute?" Gregory asked.

"Gregory, I don't think she's going to answer I'm sorry." Cassidy said.

"Look Chica, I know you feel like your alone, but your not. I'm going through the exact same thing your going through. And…I'm no stranger to how this feels, I lost a family once, it's the worst feeling in the world, but, you don't have to go through it alone. We're here just open up to us. Please. Aunt Chica." Gregory said.

"Aunt Chica." It was those words that got through to her. The thought of being an aunt to the human child in her life that has grown on her over time.

The apartment door opened. Chica was dressed in black shorts and a pink sweater as her lounge wear. Battle damage could be seen on parts of her exposed skin. It was mostly cuts in her silicone skin from her damage taken during her run in with Funtime Foxy. Fazbear parts and service glue and Fazbear clear dissolving tape was applied to the cuts, this will allow the rubbery silicone to be mended good as new within 24 hours along with the tape dissolving itself. Until then the cuts could still be seen.

"Gregory, hun, come on in." Chica said. Chica pulled him into a hug that lasted a few minutes. He wasn't expecting it based on what Cassidy told him.

She saw Cassidy.

"You, too little chick." Chica pulled Cassidy into a hug as well.

Cassidy and Gregory walked in, as Chica shut her apartment door behind them. They were now in her living room. Her cat Missy walked by trying to get attention from Gregory and Cassidy as they sat on her couch. Gregory pet her for a moment, and so did Cassidy. Chica sat down on the other side of the couch, as Missy sat in her lap purring while Chica pet her.

"Chica, I just wanted to check up on you. I was worried about you since I heard about the attack. Chica, what happened?" The boy asked.

"It's all a bit hazy Gregory. It's like something wiped parts of my memory banks somehow….I remember, there was some commotion happening in the atrium when we were hanging out in the staff break room near Rockstar Row, then the fire alarms were set off, and we were helping people evacuate. After that….there was these people that came in….I can't remember their faces…it's like when I playback what I saw last night in my head, the faces have been pixelated….I do remember them easily overpowering us, as hard as it is to believe, these soldiers that just came in out of the blue then….overtook us with their stun weapons. Weapons I've never seen before. After Roxanne went down….I remember seeing one face I recognize….Funtime Foxy….I don't know how he's alive….but he is. He had some kind of cable or tentacle come out of his hand and he whipped me with it, and I remember hitting a wall, but nothing after that. Then I woke up in my bedroom with all my damage repaired and Mangle and Foxy by my side." Chica said.

"Funtime Foxy?" Cassidy said.

"Who is he?" Gregory asked.

"William, a long time ago had made a bunch of animatronics known as the Funtime Animatronics. They were not like all the others he and Henry Emily made together. These were made to hurt children, not protect them…" Cassidy said.

"When the former CEO of Fazbear Entertainment, before Jason, ran the company he had them destroyed and dismantled. I don't know where their parts ended up, but I'm going to assume these people Vanny is working with got ahold of them and rebuilt some of them. As for Freddy, one of my closest friends, and Roxanne, my bestie, and Monty….it's my fault I couldn't save them…." Chica said with an artificial tear going down her cheek.

"No it's not Chica. They would have over powered you too, same goes for Mangle and Foxy. It's none of your faults." Cassidy said hugging her.

"Yeah but…I just feel like I need to do something. I…feel so damn useless…We can't just sit around and wait. Somewhere out there, Freddy, Monty and Roxy are alone and scared. I can't imagine how Roxy feels especially. We should be tracking down Vanny's whereabouts right now and bust in there and save our family." Chica said.

"Your not useless Chica. Not at all." Gregory said putting a hand on her shoulder. She smiled at him.

"Vanessa, Foxy and the higher ups are doing the best they can, working with OAOS on the case. We have no choice but to wait, I hate to say it Chica. But that doesn't make any of us useless." Cassidy said.

"Maybe we don't have to wait." Gregory said.

"Huh?" Both chicken women said.

"Chica, remember Faux Chica? You told me about your run in with her back in October when you pulled up to the old JR's diner. She didn't want to hurt you and helped you. Maybe she's not as evil as the others like we thought? If we find her, maybe we can get her on our side to help us find the others?" Gregory said.

"Gregory she could be anywhere in the city or even somewhere far away from the city. We have no way of finding her." Chica said.

A knock interrupted them.

"Sigh….Who is it?" Chica yelled from the couch.

"Mangle."

"It's unlocked, come on in." Chica said. Mangle let herself in, with Bonnie right behind her, to their surprise.

Mangle was wearing black jeans, black boots, and a long sleeve form fitting red shirt with a cartoony drawing of her with a Christmas hat on, on the shirt. The fox woman's hair was up in it's trademark ponytail between her big pierced fox ears.

Bonnie was wearing his trademark star shades, much like the ones Monty would wear, a blue zip up hoodie, blue jeans, and sneakers on.

"Bonnie?" Chica asked.

"We couldn't help but hear you ladies and you Greg, talking about a way to track down where the others went. We'll I think the unofficial lady of the Pizzaplex here, might have some info for you. Mama Mangle take it away." Bonnie said.

"So right now in that meeting Foxy and the others are having with the OAOS, I was able to listen on it on it with these ears of mine, and it turns out they have tracked down the Faux Glamrocks where abouts. Not Vanny's unfortunately. But they seem to be taking refuge in hideouts around the city, almost as if there's reason they are staying out here." Mangle said.

"Maybe so they keep us from finding out where Freddy and the others went." Cassidy commented.

"So is the OAOS going to raid them and bring them in or what? What are they waiting for?" Gregory asked.

"Not yet. Right now they want to track where their going and what their doing and hope it leads us to Vanny. But I don't think I want to wait that long to find out where my baby is." Mangle said.

"You mean our baby don't you?" Foxy came in, in his business suit in the open door behind Mangle.

"Oh hi, honey…I didn't know your meeting was ending this soon." Mangle said.

The red male anthropomorphic fox laughed when she thought he might be annoyed she was eavesdropping on the company meeting.

"Remember lass, we have the same eyes, I saw you outside the door. But, I can't disagree. I want my…our daughter back too. And the rest of our family. Normally I wouldn't do this, but I am saying we don't wait for the OAOS to take action." Foxy said shocking everyone.

"I agree." Vanessa and Berry said walking in.

"I guess it's a party now heh." Bonnie laughed.

"Mom?" Gregory asked.

"Yeah Gregory, I heard you 3 talking with Mangle a few minutes ago too. I normally woulden't do this, but I'm thinking what Foxy is thinking. We go find Faux Chica, first and find out what we can from her, and maybe she can be our inside woman if we can get her on our side." Vanessa said.

"I have an idea of where we might find her tonight." Berry said.

"What's that?" Foxy asked.

"She's appeared to be staying at an apartment located behind a night club downtown where a lot of animatronics and people often go for drinks. Even on weekdays. It's called Servos and Paradise." Berry said.

"Weird name but okay." Gregory said.

"A lot of people often go there for….activities in addition to drinks with the robots…." Berry said.

"Do I want to know?" Gregory asked.

Everyone in the room said "No!"

"How do we get in?" Chica spoke up.

"If your human, same as any other place, 21 years or older, show your ID. If you're a robot, show your Federal Sentient Robot ID. But if Faux Chica has any kind of connection to the owners of the club, they might be looking for any animatronics linked to Fazbear and not let them in." Berry said.

Foxy had a burst of energy and started taking charge as fill in for Freddy.

"Will figure something out. Mangle, Chica, Bonnie, I want you two to get your Dance Night outfits ready. We got a party to go tonight."

"Berry, work on forging our IDs to not say Fazbear on them. I know it's illegal but…we need to do it if they are looking for robots employed by Fazbear."

"Okay then…." She laughed.

Oh god Berry what did you get yourself into…

"Gregory….assuming your mother lets you call out of school again tomorrow….you can be on standby with your suit. In case things get hairy. Cassidy, you're the getaway driver in case we need to disappear. I know your driving skills are just as good as my daughter."

"You got it Cap!" Cassidy responded saluting.

"Don't encourage him." Mangle said.

Foxy laughed.

"Marta and Fifi are not going to be happy about us going behind their backs like this…I could beg for forgiveness later…" Vanessa said.

"What about the tactical team? If Jenny, Jet, and Cameron hear about this…" Chica said.

"They already know." Heather and Kellen said walking in.

"Did you guys hear everything we spoke about?" Mangle asked.

"Yep." They responded.

"Are you on board with this unofficial business knowing the risks?" Mangle asked.

"Yep." They responded.

"Then it's settled. This is going to be an unofficial operation. Nothing in the books. Let's go save our family starting tonight." Foxy said.
