I apologize for the long wait. time has been busy, but I have two chapters for you. This and another one, which I plan to submit next week.

to DisturbedOnes: thanks, it pleases me to hear you enjoyed it ^^

Thomas returns from his vacation and is more than happy to resume work, not to mention put what he has learned through school into practice. Has to use, well, needs to experiment on something and it's not really his fault that the robots around his working place are all sentient. He does his usual greetings when stepping through the door of Freddy's and heads straight to the Parts and Service. On the table lies Marion, the only robot so far not sentient but Thomas is unsure if he dares to experiment on that guy. His father's stories of how aggressive this puppet was are not something he wants to experience, less so when he can't defend himself by voice. So all he dares is merely repair Marion, and that's what he does. Thomas prepares his tools, grabs the same plastic that is protecting Marion's very simple endoskeleton. He has to remove the old one and doing that is kinda nerve wrecking, especially when it feels like the puppet is watching his every move.

"Hey."

Thomas jumps and spins to the door, holding a hand before his racing heart from the sudden jumpscare. His uncle blinks, then laughs, "wow, you're jumpy today." Thomas sends him a deadpan stare for making such a stupid pun. Jeremy laughs and not moving from the door, instead leaning up against the doorframe. "Finishing up Marion's repairs?"

Thomas nods, picks up the tools the jumpscare made him throw onto the floor; with them back onto the table, he resumes work. He can feel Jeremy watch him, but Thomas does not really mind. He removes the plastic skin, exposing the endoskeleton and there he takes notice that whatever tore the puppet also got the skeleton pretty good. He sighs and grabs what he need to repair it. Jeremy leaves his spot and steps over, mindful not to stand in the way. "I watched him getting mauled by Twisted One, no fucking idea why, but it was like he barely noticed." Thomas looks up from his task in replacing the whole chest cavity, showing his confusion by frowning. "I don't know if you ever met him before..." He did, Marion was cold and sarcastic towards him, but the situation back then was tense so if that how he usually was, Thomas has no idea. "but he refused to interact with anyone unless we dragged him out from this room or it was for his own self-interest."

That makes Thomas wonder, he tries to sign it, but hasn't yet learned the hand sign for those words, so he writes it down 'what was Marion's goal?'

"To kill the one who murdered him, I guess." Jeremy replies, his uncle scratches over his healing scars. "Not sure what his end goal was, not even sure if he knew," Thomas looks down to the lifeless body, and his uncle adds "but from his latest behavior, I think he cared a lot more than I ever gave him credit for…"

Yeah, and Thomas is glad Marion came and helped them out, not only by reviving the animatronics but also saving Jeremy from that… thing.

'do you know why he does not stick around?' He asks through the note. While Jeremy ponders about the answer, he connects the new chest with the rest of Marion's body, and as he replaces the torn wires with new. "No idea, kid. You gotta ask our spirit watchers about that." Jeremy replies. Thomas figures he will have to speak with Soren about it, he and Hope mentioned they have met Marion's spirit once. When done, he grabs the plastic and begins to cut and correct it to fit properly over the endoskeleton; Jeremy is kind enough to help him out with this difficult task.

"Better put him back in that present box." Jeremy hauls the puppet over his shoulders, adding as he walks out. "I doubt you want him to stare at you while working." He got that one right, Thomas does not mind when Jeremy or the others watches him, but it's entirely different with Marion. Something about those black eyes… it freaks him out.

Thomas follow his uncle over to the gift corner, Goldie is over there, restocking the shelves with new prices. "Good to see Marion repaired again." the golden bear smiles, "Certain he would appreciate it if he decides to return."

"Doubt it." Jeremy grumbles and puts the puppet into the large gift box, but does recall that cold attitude was for a reason. "Wasn't there something that he couldn't feel any emotions?"

"Something like that." Goldie replies and that part still confuses him "But I don't know why has that issue. His systems should be active."

The golden bear eyes him, but all Thomas can do is shrug, he's not a software engineer, that's Rena, but she's still busy being on vacation— oh, before he forgets. Thomas grabs his notebook and through it, asks if Goldie would mind if he could try and test what he has learned from school. 'I kinda need to know how far I can go with you guys.' He adds, for unlike the machine he can practice on at school, the animatronics here feels pain.

"Sure, let's see what you have learned." Goldie smiles, which their young mechanic returns with a relived one.

The restaurant closes its doors for the night, and everyone is starting to calm down for the night. Jeremy waits for Thomas to finish up his checkup on Goldie, making sure the few test repairs he did wouldn't harm the golden bear. The moment both he and the golden bear feels they are in the clear, they leave the building and head back home.

The car driven by Jeremy passes another and much smaller car, this little blue car has a lot of instruments in the back, but one of these is more important for the driver.

This driver stops the car at some quite old house complex and the woman steps out, watching these buildings that once should've held a single family but now housing at least three families. She brushes her dark brown hair behind her ear and with a single deep inhale, she grabs the case that holds her most precious item and walks towards the building. After have knocked on the door, an adult male opens, frowning bit suspicious. "I'm here for the conjuring." She tells the man quietly. Honestly, she is still very skeptical about this whole thing. But these past months has been challenging and Julia would like some sort of good news.

The man just stands there for a moment before he steps aside. "Door to the right, past the door curtain." He instructs her and she heads there. Julia removes some of this seemly homemade curtain for the door, and feels like she's walking into some sort of wizard house. The shelves have jars with all kinds of dried herbs, even some wood and pretty sure some of them have rocks. Several incense sticks are spreading a faint scent of bamboo and some sort of perfume she can't exactly name. Only that the smell and thin layer of smoke is making her dozy but mostly giving her flashbacks to how her mother engulfed the whole living room with her cursed cigarettes.

"I see you decided to take the leap of faith."

Julia turns to the elderly woman that is sitting in a small and pretty worn meditation chair. Her silver hair is braided into many small braids, which it sat up in a kinda messy ponytail. The woman gestures to the other chair and she hesitantly walks over, the grip around the case tighten. "I am still debating if this is worth my time and money." She admits to the elderly woman, but still takes a seat.

The woman straightens herself a bit up, giving her a smile that she has clearly heard that many times before. "I cannot promise if you will leave satisfied, but answers you will get. Now:" she reaches out with palm up. Julia restrains herself from rolling her eyes and is debating if this is worth the money. Still, she hands the woman the amount they agreed on, and after the woman has counted them. "Let us begin. Do you have something of importance to the spirit you wish to commune with?"

Here goes nothing; Julia opens the case and carefully takes out the small guitar, decorated with musical stickers, some paint splatter on the side and a dent near the hole. She hands it to the woman that takes it and puts it inside a weird pentagram. "Yes, this object is very dear to the spirit. I can sense much joy and pride." That is correct but Julia is still skeptical; everyone would know this small guitar was much loved by its former owner. The woman grabs a bottle and pours some of these dried plants over the guitar with a flowing wave. "Come to us spirit, follow the link you made to this object." She hovers her hands over the guitar, silence for a while. "hm, the spirit is resisting the call. I sense annoyance like they do not like to be told doing what I ask."

Julia blinks, the woman's words gave her some flashbacks to her youngest brother being an annoying brat when told to do something he wouldn't. She does not speak though, for it still sounds like a cheap trick.

"Maybe some persuading will help on that." The woman muses and starts waving the incense over the guitar and towards her, apparently it worked as she smile. "The spirit is coming, might not recognize you at first. They got bit of a temper…" her smiles suddenly fades, first confusion, then worry. "Wait, something's not right. Anger— no frustration… trapped, the sense of being forced. Why do you feel such things?" The woman puts a hand on the guitar, her eyes closed. "Need to reach the spot, confusion, annoyance… fear. What scares you?" Her eyes open and with a somewhat fearful look, she turns to Julia. "How did this spirit die?"

"He was murdered." Julia replies and for some reason, it made the woman jerk her hand away from the guitar. This confuses her. "What?"

The woman checks the room, "Traumatizing deaths leave a mark on the spirit, this one you wishes to commune is still traumatized by the act, and he might lash out."

"And how will he do that?" Julia asks, getting a bit freaked out, but staying calm as this is probably just part of the show. "Start throwing the furniture?" She jokes halfheartedly.

"No, only the stronger spirits has that kind of power. This spirit should only make the room cold and give you a bad case of—" her sentence is cut short by a loud crack, followed by screaming and a struggle. Both Julia and the woman turn fearfully to the door, jump in frights when something big appears behind the door curtain. It's hard to get a proper look in the dim light, only that it has purple fur and when turning, the eyes are black with white dots as pupils. "My god…" the woman gasps. The creature steps inside and Julia's eyes wide when it reveals itself as a purple rabbit, one who only has its sight on the woman. Understandable the woman crawls backward, but this creature is much faster; it lunges and catches her leg, easily dragging the screaming in pure horror woman over to it. Then, the rabbit lets out a terrible screech, one that starts like a monster but then, Julia's eyes wide in horror when she realizes that a cry of pure terror on a child can make between the monster screeching. Right as it finished this terrible screech, the rabbit hurled the woman into a nearby shelf, the many jars broke and cut into her skin, she cried but didn't get up.

Julia reacted, she leaped up and jumped in between this rabbit and the woman who tried to summon her brother's spirit. The rabbit jerks back, for a moment, it just stared at her, then a terrifying expression she never wants to see again. That's the only warning before it grabbed and she screamed from the pain that it cracked the bones in her shoulder, right as it threw her to the floor. Weakly she stares up to the glaring black-eyed creature; it reaches again for her, but inches from her, it jerks and when opening its eyes, they are normal, magenta in color and very confused. "What the hell…" the rabbit muses, looking around the room and when spotting her and the woman, it freezes, eyes wide in horror. Slowly it backs away, before bolting out from the room. Julia passes out not long after; this was not how she expected this conjuring to go.

He really messed up; this is really fricking bad. Bonnie is used to having nightmares, but this one was much more intense and then he wakes, finding himself in an entirely new location and attacking innocent people. This scares him to the core. He'd hurt people, badly. He stops inside a park; his built-in night vision allows him to see his surroundings and is glad he is alone. But those people… not only did he attack those two women, but it seemed he too gave others quite the beating in his sudden night-walking. "I can't just leave them…" but he can't go back, if people know, they will demand that every animatronics at Freddy's will be scrapped. He can call for an ambulance, yeah he can do that, but... Bonnie looks around and realizes that he got no clue where he is. "And even if an ambulance came, they will reveal an animatronic purple rabbit…" Bonnie grabs around his head. "Oh I've really screwed up!" but he can't let this go back to the others, this is his mistake and Bonnie will fix it… somehow. One thing first.

Bonnie hurries back to the place; the two males are still out but seem to be fine otherwise. The whimpering reminds him of those he truly hurt and Bonnie returns to the room. The elderly woman is trying to move the moment she spots him, horror in her dark eyes. understandable, he did cause this… "I'm sorry, I…" He steps over to her, "I don't know what came over me…" carefully kneeling before her, Bonnie hesitates but can't leave her like this. "I'm going to pick you up, okay?" and carefully reaches for her; she whimpers but fortunately does not trash in fear. Bonnie gently puts her on a spot where there isn't broken glass and a quick scan reveals that he really has to stop the bleeding. "Shit… okay, gotta find towels, or something for the bleeding." he muses to himself.

"Shelf to the right." the woman speaks, making him look confused back to her. "There's an aid kit." Oh, okay, Bonnie nods and after a bit of searching, he finds the box and begins to clean and bandage the cuts. "Who put you into this vessel?"

Bonnie jerks his head up, startled that this woman apparently knows what he is. "How?"

The woman drops her gaze in regret. "I summoned you… knew you would lash out, but never expected…" she gestures to his body. "this."

Oh, that explains the nightmare and sudden sleepwalking. "If you promise not to tell anyone." The woman nods, so, well guess he has to tell her how he ended up like this.

You have no idea how much I debated with myself if I should've added the second part of this chapter. but many of you wanted more animatronics to unite with their past, so... yeah, this and the next will be about Bonnie coming in contact with parts of his past.

yay?

Before you click off, I would like to hear what you want to happen next. I have a few ideas but not sure which plotline I should take.

which is:

-Soren and Hope going to school, where Soren has to help a ghost and deal with bullies.-

-An old enemy from past Freddy's will try and take the restaurant from the animatronics.-

-Freddy reunites with his family and Marion's spirit is starting to discover what has become of him.-

If you can help me figure it out or give me your chapter suggestions, I promise to come with more chapters much sooner. If not... well, then you have to wait over a month once again.
