Hurricane, Utah

Servos and Paradise Nightclub and Restaurant

Thursday, December 20th 2035

9:00 PM

The nightlife in Hurricane was busy tonight for a weekday. Streets were packed with people.

The Pizzaplex gang arrived in a parts and service bus being driven by Cassidy, just down the street from the club. Parking on street was free until 12 AM. And there was a spot on the side of the road just big enough to pull in and park the bus.

The bus had tinted windows.

Mangle was in one of the front seats dressed up in her clubbing attire, dressed up in a black halter top, and wearing tight form fitting black jeans that showed off her curves. She had black fingerless gloves with long sleeves coming off of them that stopped 5 inches after the wrist. She wore knee high black boots. She wore her spiked neck choker and spiked wrist bands. Her white hair with a thick red streak in it was still in a pony tail, with the a prominent red bang at the front of her face, much like Roxanne's green hair streak. She wore a tan bomber jacket over it all, due to the outdoor conditions, which she will take off once inside the club.

Foxy was dressed with a long sleeve black button up shirt, opened at the chest level showing off his physique, in black jeans with black boots. He also wore his pirate hat. He had a spiked neck choker, like the girls wore, and his spiked wrist bands. He then wore a long winter coat over it.

Chica changed into a pink tube top revealing some skin, with a black long sleeve bomber jacket with the sleeves having the same green and pink patterns as her glamrock arm warmers on it. She wore the same form fitting tight leather pants as Roxanne with boots, showing off her curves. She kept her green fingerless gloves from her glamrock outfit and her spiked wrist bands and spiked neck choker. Her bomber jacket was currently zipped up, due to the cold air outside.

Cassidy wore a denim jacket, black t-shirt underneath that slightly bared her midriff, black jeans like the ones Glamrock Chica is currently wearing, and spiked wrist bands and a spiked neck choker. She was going to be staying in the bus, but wanted to be dressed up just in case she needs to run inside the club.

Bonnie was wearing his usual DJ attire. Jeans, sneakers, blue short sleeve shirt and then a blue jacket zipped up, and he had his spiked wristbands.

Heather was wearing her red leather jacket over a black long sleeve shirt with Glamrock Chica on it, her red hair in a ponytail, her glasses on, jeans and boots. She wore earrings like Glamrock Chica's.

Vanessa was wearing form fitting blue skinny jeans with knee high brown boots. A black studded belt and a white short tank top that exposed her midriff. She wore a fake belly button piercing just for the party, to "fit in". She wore the Glamrock spiked neck choker and wristbands the band gave her as a sign of the family bonds they have formed. She wore earrings like Glamrock Chica's. She wore a white bomber jacket that was currently zipped up.

Kellen, and Berry were not on the bus and instead stood behind at the Pizzaplex acting as their HQ, keeping communication with everyone through wireless headsets.

Jenny Wolf, Jet Wolf and Cameron from the tactical team were waiting in their black SUV with tinted windows, geared up and ready in case of a confrontation. If they were asked what they were doing at the club, their alibi is that they needed to escort a Fazbear animatronic that ended up there out of the premises and back home.

The parts and service bus was at the end of the block away from the club on purpose so no onlookers suspect anything, and they had the excuse that one of their Fazbear facilities was in the neighborhood so it would work out.

Gregory was hanging out at a nearby Fazbear pizzeria, taking a seat at the window across the street from the club. Ordering food with a unlimited card Glamrock Freddy had given him along ago. A Glamrock Chica based animatronic took his order and she would be coming back with his food. He was hungry and did miss dinner today, so it worked out. His backpack was next to him in the booth seat.

"Is everyone ready to do this?" Kellen asked on their radios.

"Yes." Everyone responded.

"Okay everyone, I'm monitoring things on my end. It's go time." Berry said on the radio.

Meanwhile…

Cue Theme:

Dark Investigation by Soundridemusic

OAOS agents were stationed throughout the city this night, monitoring all the Faux animatronics locations where they have been staying. Fusion, Dawkin, and Elizabeth had been monitoring the club location from a rooftop in the city across the street from the club. They know Faux Chica has been staying in the apartment above the club on the 3rd floor of the building.

Marta, Blox and Cove had been monitoring Faux Roxanne and Faux Monty both seemingly staying at the top 12th floor of a high end hotel a few blocks away. Someone was paying for their stay.

Fifi, Kane and Pop were all watching Faux Freddy at an arcade and bar downtown where he was having a drink while playing one of the arcade machines.

"How are things looking for everyone?" Lance Dawkin asked on his headset. Fusion, Dawkin and Elizabeth were dressed in their tactical outfits, while the others were in their casual clothing going undercover.

"Well…I just saw Faux Roxanne and Faux Monty get out of the shower. That is something I didn't need to see through that big window." Marta commented.

"Faux Freddy is just drinking and playing his arcade games still, but….now he is answering his phone….He looked concerned….and he just got up! He's on the move headed for the parking lot." Fifi said.

"Fifi, don't lose him." Dawkin said.

"I won't cap. On it." Fifi said tailing him with Pop and Kane.

"It's like Faux Roxanne just grabbed her cell phone looking at it and looked like she's seen a ghost. Then she got upset. Now their getting dressed in a hurry." Cove said.

"Their getting ready to go somewhere cap." Marta said.

"This must be something big. Don't lose them." Dawkin said.

"….Vanessa…" Elizabeth said while looking through the scope of her Heckler and Koch PSG1 sniper rifle. She was seeing her niece.

"What?" Dawkin said looking through the scope on his PSG1.

"Oh sugar….I told them not show up….Damn it." Dawkin said. Marta overheard on the comms.

"What!? V is there? Sigh….I told her not to interfere…what is she doing here!?" Marta was annoyed.

"She probably couldn't help herself but get involved wanting to get the others back. Can't blame her on one hand, on the other she could blow this if she doesn't know what she's doing." Fusion said.

Then Mangle, Bonnie, Foxy, Chica and Heather were seen walking behind Vanessa catching up to her.

"Yeah….we got trouble….I'll have units on standby. Things might get worse. They are going to have some explaining to do when we're done." Dawkin said.

Meanwhile….

Faux Chica was in her apartment above the two floor club. She was on the couch in her dark blue sweater, grey shorts and white socks eating a bowl of ramen. She and the rest of the Faux Glamrocks were given the nanomachine stomachs like the Twisted Wolf had, so they could eat just like the real glam rocks, but process the food faster. However since they were Remnant powered, unlike the real gang that uses batteries, eating didn't provide a means of charge, it was more for pleasure.

Brings me back to those days in my dorm when I was a real person…

Evan, Clara and Michael were in the living room with her eating microwaveable Fazbear pizza. It was tasty, not as tasty as homemade but still tasty, Maria was never exactly a good cook when she was human. The struggling college student mostly heated up prepackaged meals.

"So Maria…can I call you that?" Clara asked.

"Yes…that's who I am really am. Go ahead." She said with a smile.

"What is the plan now?" Clara asked.

"I…don't know…." Maria said.

A knock at the door interrupted the conversation.

"Hey…Maria? You there?" A male voice asked.

"Uh yeah! Hold on." Maria got up from the couch. Her friend Chad from her college days already knew she was having some "family" stay with her. She will admit when she first tracked down her old friend, she did spook him in her new chicken animatronic body. He was at her funeral after the car accident. But luckily for her, he is no stranger to weirder things so once she answered some questions about him only she would know, he was blown away. When she was human she and Chad were very close. And even if she is an advanced machine now, their bond never went away. And he still treats her like the first day he met her. Chad owned the building and the Servos and Paradise club.

She opened the door.

"Hey…Chad…." Maria said smiling.

"Hey…just checking in Maria before I have to head downstairs to get ready for guests." The young man with short blond hair, jeans, checkered shirt and sneakers asked.

"I appreciate you checking on us. Um I think we're fine for now." Maria said.

"I still can't believe…it's really you." He was grinning.

She came out into the hallway and gestured to the Afton's she would be back in in a minute and closed the door.

"I'm just glad you know that it's still me in here. I know when I first told you, it was a lot for you to take in." She said.

"Yeah it was, but I'm just glad your still alive now. You told me about the others and it sounds like your in quite a situation. Do your parents know your still alive?" He asked.

"No…I'm too scared to go back home…looking like this. Even if I know they paid for me to undergo this procedure. Besides, I don't think I can live a life resembling anything close to normal until I stop William and Vanny and free the rest of our friends from their control. I can only protect them for so long before he and his group come looking or he sends my own friends after me and them." Maria had a look of worry on her face.

He put a hand on her shoulder. He was taller than her. He was Glamrock Freddy's height, 6 feet. Chad was a gifted basketball player when she and him were in school together.

"Hey, you'll be safe here. He doesn't know you're here. Maybe we can get you in contact with the OAOS. They can help." Chad said.

"That was going to be my next step. But I don't want to get decommissioned if they think I was responsible for what happened at Fazbear HQ. It's not like when I was a human Chad. The punishments are different for robots." Maria said.

"If there is security camera footage of what happened at the HQ building showing you had nothing to do with the fire or showing you were forced. It would be proof. C'mon isn't there someone there that you helped when you were left alone? If their still alive, they are a witness. They could vouch for you." Chad said.

"Yeah…there was this rabbit animatronic woman, her name was Berry. She was the one I could have killed but I helped her instead." Maria said.

"There you go, you got a witness. Now let's contact them." Chad said.

Chad got a text on his iPhone.

"Sorry Maria…duty calls. I'm talk to you later tonight. Just hang up here for the night okay?" He asked.

"Don't worry. I'll be here….and thank you for everything." She hugged him.

"Yeah, no problem." He said smiling at her. Returning the hug.

"Okay I gotta head downstairs and get the place ready, we've already got people coming in." Chad said heading down.

"Okay, cya soon." Maria said going back into the apartment.

Meanwhile….

Mangle was at the door with her Federal Robot ID, that has been doctored by Berry to look like she did not work for Fazbear.

Vanessa got in just fine with her regular drivers license, unless they recognized her face, they otherwise had no idea she worked for Fazbear Entertainment.

What she and the group didn't realize was for robots, a computer with software linking back to the federal database was being used on cards for every animatronic trying to gain entry.

Mangle witnessed what happens when a card got rejected for being a fake. Police from the local sheriffs department, are called in to detain someone trying to gain entry with a fake ID, human or animatronic.

Shit…Shit…Shit….

"Vanessa….Berry….their scanning robot ID's against the national database. If they find out ours are fake….we are screwed." Mangle said in her comms unit in her head.

"I didn't think they were scanning at this location….Crap…" Berry said.

"What do I do!? Just leave, get out of line? There's 3 more people ahead of us." Mangle said.

"Mangle we might have to abort this plan. I don't anyone to end up in the back of a cop car or an OAOS cruiser. Get out of line now and go back to the bus…" Berry was about to finish when communications were intercepted.

"Mangle, Berry all of you. Don't worry, we can take care of the check for you." Lance Dawkin said once Cove managed to get into their systems.

"They know were here!?" Vanessa said.

"Yes..we do…we told you all not to intervene in the case…but it's too late for that talk now. Let's focus on keeping you all out of a jail cell tonight. Cove, we have full access to that system with our clearance right?" Dawkin asked.

"Correct, I'm in it now. When Mangle and the gang are up next, I'll monitor the system for the request and force it to issue an all clear on the ID and trick the system into showing that you don't work for Fazbear. It helps you all have friends in government. We can talk about thanking me later." Cove said.

"How do you know were here?" Mangle demanded.

"We have eyes around, just not where you think." Dawkin said as Mangle than looked up at one of the buildings across the street and noticed 3 people on top of one of them with her advanced eyes.

"Don't stare for too long, we would appreciate our cover not being blown. You are all not to say a word, this is operation is classified and we never spoke of this. While we're every displeased with you all showing up here, at the very least we will make sure you stay out of trouble. Now just head inside. You are on your own from here once inside, we know your looking for Maria Fitzgerald, aka Faux Chica, the innocent one in all of this. Our team saw the security footage. She is not on our wanted list. But Mangle, I don't want you to find her, I want Glamrock Chica to find her. She has Maria's trust. You don't yet." Dawkin said.

"Yes, he's right Mangle, she trusts me. I can talk her into helping us." Glamrock Chica said.

"Your right. Okay…let's do this. This isn't like a dance night at the Pizzaplex. We're here on business, we don't have time to mingle with anyone, we're just trying to blend in long enough to get to Faux Chica, get information from her and if she's willing help us find our family. Got it?" Mangle asked.

"Let's go." Everyone said on their radios.

It was Mangle's turn to have her ID checked. She pulled it out of her purse. They checked the ID and it passed, they let her on in.

Everyone else went, then it was Glamrock Chica's turn.

Her ID passed but then the door man recognized her from the Glamrock band. He then went on to say "Oh you must be a guest performer tonight. Come on in."

This completely shocked her but she rolled with it.

Eventually they all made it in the bustling club.

Music from the DJ:

Control feat Jex – Unknown Brain x Rival

It was a full house with people and animatronics dancing with each other and having drinks together at the bar. Various types of animatronics were there, fox models, wolf models, various bird models, hippo models, bear models, tiger models, rabbit models all enjoying the party with other animatronics or humans as their plus ones. In 2035, animatronics could date humans, given how far the technology has come in their sentience.

Not all of the animatronic present were made by Fazbear, many were made by other robotics companies. Nonetheless, everyone now had the realistic synthetic silicone shells over their endos, making them far more anthropomorphic than older shell types. While the technology was pioneered by Fazbear, they did license it out to other robotics companies to use it for their animatronics. Freddy signed off on the patent but wasn't going to restrict it to just himself and his animatronics with the company, and kept his promise to license it to other robotics firms for a small one time fee of 5000 US dollars for any company or individual that was interested, at a price point like that, a majority of manufacturers signed on. More companies were now also letting their sentient animatronics choose how they wanted to look with their new shells. With Freddy at the helm, Fazbear was slowly also warming up to the idea of letting their animatronics choose if they wanted, specific types, of upgrades to be installed if they so wish. A lot has changed since the pizzaplex incident and silver parasol incident.

Mangles favorite song was playing, Control, but she didn't have time to dance to it or enjoy the scenery. She and Chica were already hit on by some men both animatronic and human, both denying them and claiming they were already with someone.

Vanessa was dealing with it as well. She was single, but not interested in anyone at the moment and most of the guys, while a select few were genuinely sweet, were ether drunk or just not her type. A woman offered her a drink, and while tempting, she declined.

Heather had one or two approach her and offer her a drink and she politely declined. She even had a woman offer her a drink but also politely declined, despite how beautiful the woman was.

Foxy and Bonnie had no trouble stepping in to assist the four women when needed.

One guy, an animatronic tiger, tried stepping up to Foxy.

"Watch where your stepping mate." The buff male tiger said with a drink in his hand. He has a deep cockney accent and got up from the bar. Foxy had accidently bumped into him from behind while following the girls.

"Haha, sorry there mate, I didn't mean to. It's just a little packed in here. You know? Hard to navigate with all these folks in here." Foxy said trying to laugh it off. The tiger was a foot taller than Foxy at 7 feet.

"Oh I know your kind. You fox and wolf models all think your sooooo cool. Don't forget buddy, my model was based off the original king of the jungle. Know your place." The tiger said rudely.

"But you're a tiger, I think you mean lions right? At the end of day, we're all robots on the inside, let's just get along eh mate?" Foxy said politely.

"Oh look at the mouth on this one? We got a smart one here boys. And he just wants all to get along and sing kumbaya." The tiger said to his male human friends and animatronic friends.

"It was just an accident bro. He didn't mean it." Bonnie said.

"Ohhh fuck off rabbit…go chew on a carrot." The tiger told him. Bonnie held himself back but was boiling on the inside.

"Look I don't want any trouble okay? I'm sorry." Foxy said before moving on.

"Yeah you better be sorry." He said to Foxy.

Just keep walking cap, just keep walking cap. No matter how much you want to hook his eyes out.

"Hey sweet fox, bring those fine ass hips over here, I can be a real animatronic for you. Hahaha." The tiger said to Mangle.

"I'm going to fucking kill him." Foxy said before Mangle and Bonnie stopped him. Mangle put her hand on his wrist.

"Honey…it's not worth it…he's just an asshole. Not worth getting arrested for. I heard what he said, I don't care about what he has to say to me. Let him run his mouth, it's just going to make him look like a bigger idiot anyway. Let's just keep going." Mangle calmed him.

"Yeah fuck that guy Fox. You're the better man here. Just walk away from people like that." Bonnie said.

"Yeah…I can really test that battery. All night long. I got double capacity installed in this well equipped package. Haha." The tiger said.

If that guy says something to me one more time….

Vanessa was getting disgusted. Even for an animatronic he was acting no differently than some of the human men she has had run ins with before throughout her life. She held herself back, they needed to focus on the matters at hand. And the tiger could easily snap her in two if she really got him angry. She had nothing but her wrist bands as hidden weapons and at the moment they were only good against animatronics that were Remnant powered. Her Beretta M9A1 was too large of a handgun to covertly conceal, unlike a weapon such as a Glock 19. She was legally allowed to carry in the state, but didn't need anymore negative attention, so this is the one time she did not bring her gun.

However Mangle did have her Glock 17, hidden in her purse in case of an emergency.

Eventually the tiger's friends, a mix of humans and robots, got him to stop.

"Hmph…machine or not, I guess when it comes to those types….their all the same…." Vanessa said.

"V, I wanted to punch that tiger so bad. Even if I know it wouldn't have ended well." Heather said.

"Trust me, I know the feeling." Vanessa said.

"Good thing Monty is not with us right now…." Chica said rolling her eyes.

"Don't let that pig get under your skins everyone…Let's just focus on getting what we need and getting you all of out of here." Berry said on their radios.

"Mangle, these people are getting more aggressive as the night goes on, and I don't mean just that tiger guy. The drinks keep getting poured and some of these people aren't holding their liquor too well. Also some of those wolf animatronics over there keep taking turns shocking themselves with that low voltage battery charger someone brought to the table that their sitting at. This is getting a little too wild and weird for me. Chica, go find Faux Chica and then get us out of here. I'm so glad we don't come here to go clubbing." Bonnie said over the crowd and music.

"Did I just hear that correctly?" Berry said on their radios.

"Yup you did Berry. Robots are shocking themselves for pleasure. What a timeline we're in." Bonnie said.

"Okay, I see a guy guarding a door back there. I'm guessing that's leads to the apartment Faux Chica has been staying at. Vanessa, your up, can you charm this guy long enough that Chica can sneak by him?" Mangle asked.

"If there's one good thing from being Vanny's former host, I learned the tricks." Vanessa said smiling.

Chad was casually standing by the stairway door making sure no one decides to mistake the door as an exit or another bathroom.

Vanessa walked up to him.

"Hey…so my friend…Heather dared me to come up and tell you that you were super cute…And I wanted to know do you think I could be model material? Heather tells me she doesn't think I could be. But I think she's full of it." Vanessa said putting on a fake valley girl accent.

Chad smiled and chuckled while Vanessa kept him busy, with Heather joining her playing along as well, also putting on a fake valley girl accent.

They managed to get Chad to walk away from his post and sit at a table with him, with his back facing the door.

Chica and Mangle managed to make their way up the stairwell leading to a hallway on the second floor. The door to the stairwell shut behind them.

"For anyone whose listening in, Chica and I have made it to what we believe is Faux Chica's hideout." Mangle said on her comms unit while drawing her Glock 19.

"Good…we will be on standby." Dawkin said.

"Likewise." Jet Wolf said.

"You guys are going to have some explaining to do after this is over." Marta said.

"Yeah we know…." Mangle said.
