Roxanne pushed the button on the main stage platform and started to go down to the basement area once again. Even though Austin came down there a few times already, he couldn't help but feel uneasy seeing the bright, colorful environment change into a dark, lifeless place. Austin checked his fazwatch, seeing it's already 3:30 am. Roxanne looked over to Austin, seeing that he looks troubled still. Roxanne placed a hand on his shoulder and smiled a bit to him.

"Don't worry kid, we will figure this out, I just know it." Roxanne tried to reassure Austin.

Austin sighed and looked at Roxanne. "But what if we don't? What if this continues to happen to you guys? What if you and that rabbit lady hurts other kids that come here? I feel like we did so much, but we actually didn't." Austin looked at the ground sadly.

Roxanne looked at Austin with a sad look.

"Yeah, we may not did much, but we know there is someone that is possibly controlling us, you thinking there is a solution to what is happening to us, and once this is all over, we will stop all this nonsense!" Roxanne said in confidence.

Austin looked at Roxanne and chuckled a bit. "You know what? We will figure this out! We are a unstoppable team!"

"Hell yeah!" Roxanne said, before clearing her throat. "Sorry, that wasn't family friendly."

Just then the platform stopped on an area that was circular. They both got off the platform and made their way to the garage like door, opening up for them. The two went straight through the hallway, though, Austin and Roxanne saw an familiar face stopped them in their tracks.

"Hi, please take this map." The map bot said to the two, handing them a map.

"Ugh, not you again!" Roxanne said in annoyance.

"Take a map, take a map, take a-" the map bot kept repeating, before Roxanne punched it in the face, causing it to fall to the ground.

"Tch, inferior machine." Roxanne scoffed, walking passed the map bot.

Austin looked at the map bot with a sad look, but decided to walk passed the map bot as well. However, the map bot raised it arm up, holding up a map.

"Free map."

The two came across two red doors and Roxanne opened them up, walking into another room. Roxanne opened up the doors once again, revealing a large room with a giant chamber with tubes connected to it. As Roxanne and Austin went inside, Austin looked around in awe.

"Wow, this is the parts and services room?" Austin asked Roxanne.

"Yep, this is where I was built, the true star of this megaplex."

Austin looked over to the left corner, seeing a mechanical structure looking down, looking deactivated.

"U-uh… what is that in the corner?"

Roxanne looked to where Austin was looking.

"Oh, that? Why that is a endoskeleton, It's what we are underneath our shells. I must say though, I'm more attractive outside than inside." Roxanne said, flicking her hair to the side and striked a pose, making Austin giggle a bit.

Roxanne looked at the chamber and went over to the entrance. The door opened up and Roxanne went inside, where she sat down on on the chair in the middle of the chamber.

"Okay kid, you see that computer on that table?" Roxanne asked Austin.

Austin looked over to the table with the computer on it.

"Yeah, I see the computer."

"Okay, walk over to it and turn it on."

Austin started to walked over to the walk. He sat down on a chair and looked at the screen of the computer.

"Okay, I'm at the computer, what now?" Austin asked Roxanne.

"Alright, just look at the screen and see what's on there." Roxanne said to Austin.

Austin looked at the screen, showing it is blank. Austin saw a power button on the bottom corner of of the computer and tapped it. The computer turned on and made a little jingle and a voice suddenly talked.

"Welcome to parts and services. Please select your desired procedure." The voice said on the intercoms.

Austin looked at the screen and saw a select upgrade on the top of the screen. Austin also saw a power upgrade, claws upgrade, voice box upgrade, ocular upgrade and a virus scanner button.

Austin gasped, looking excited. "Roxy, there's a virus scanner, we can figure this out, right here, right now!"

"That's great kid, well, what are you waiting for, push the virus scanner."

Austin nodded, as he pressed the button with the mouse in anticipation. As Austin pressed the button, an X-ray of Roxanne showed up, as well as a loading bar that said 'scanning…'

This is it, this is the moment where we can finally find the mystery.

Austin looked as the bar slowly went up. 25%… 50%… 75%… 99%… complete! Just then, a jingle sounded and the intercom came back on.

"Congratulations, Roxanne Wolf does… not have any viruses. Roxanne Wolf is perfectly fine." The voice said, shocking Austin a bit.

"W-what?! No! Maybe I should try again." Austin said, pressing the retry button again.

"Auzzy…" Roxanne Wolf said to Austin.

"Roxanne Wolf does not-"

Austin pressed the retry button once again, and again, and even more.

"Roxanne-"

"Rox-"

"R-"

"Roxanne Wolf is perfectly fine and does not have any viruses. Please stop pushing the retry button."

Just as Austin was about to press the retry button, but Roxanne stopped him by talking to him.

"Auzzy, that's enough. There's nothing wrong with me." Roxanne said to Austin.

"Gaahhh!!"Austin said, sounding frustrated, slammed his hands on the desk. "I was so sure there was something going with those chips that were installed into you guys," Austin showed his bare teeth, then sighed, feeling defeated. "But now… I'm not sure what to do now…"

Roxanne sat back up and exited the chamber. She went over to Austin and patted the top of his head.

"Hey kid, don't beat yourself up too much, we did our best, but it looks like the chips aren't the cause of this."

"Then… what is it then? You guys clearly act strange when Gregory is around and you try to attack him. So… what's making you guys act so strange?"

"I… I don't know…" Roxanne said, her ears flopped down.

Austin sighed and looked down at the floor, looking defeated. Roxanne looked at him, feeling bad for him. Roxanne bended down on the chair Austin was on and smiled at him.

"Hey kid, how about we go to Roxy's Raceway, blow of some steam. What do you say kid?" Roxanne said to Austin.

Austin looked at Roxanne with a bit of a shocked look.

"Really? You want to go… to Roxy's Raceway… with me?"

"Of course! Besides, whenever I'm stressed or upset, I will go to my track and race until I feel better. Maybe… racing with me for a bit, it will make you feel better. So, how bout it… wanna race with the best?"

Austin looked at her and chuckled a bit. "Yeah, I would like to."

Roxanne nodded and looked to the doors that resembled Freddy, Roxanne, Monty and Chica, with Roxanne's door green lit on top.

"I know a shortcut we can take, come on." Roxanne said to Austin, gesturing him to follow.

"Okay." Austin nodded.

Roxanne walked to the left side and up some red stairs, Austin following behind. They got to Roxanne's door and it opened up for them. The two went in the hall as the door closed behind them. Little did they know, Moondrop was watching them from the roof this whole time they were in the room. He dropped down to the floor and pressed the side on his head.

"The Boy and the Wolf don't where the virus is. They are still clueless." Moondrop chuckled sinisterly.

"Excellent work Moondrop. Once we have all of them in place, we can finally catch Gregory, and kill the other one," The voice that sounded like the bunny lady said. "Keep following them and Gregory, let me know when they meet again."

"As you wish, Vanny."

Moondrop laughed manically, crawling on the walls and back into the darkness once more.
