Merry Christmas, everyone!

Enjoy the new chapter!


Night 19

The New Generation

''Look over there, that's right, they got rid of the bear, they took his hat, fixed up my joyful stare. Right on the stage is where the new band likes to play, behind a pair of glowing eyes on my face. Don't stay behind to see us step out of the light, because I know you won't get out alive. Enjoy your stay before we leave you to decay and rip the joy out of your lifeless eyes.''

''So, you're one of the Showtime Animatronics?'' Glamrock Freddy asked curiously, continuing the conversation from earlier with Springtrap as they followed Victor and Sam towards the area where Monty's Gator Golf was.

''Not exactly. I don't consider myself a Showtime Animatronic, but I work together with them from time to time. My actual purpose is to be Sam's partner, but when she isn't around, I don't mind working as a Storyteller at the other location,'' Springtrap explained.

''Oh, I see… I didn't know something like that could be arranged,'' Glamrock Freddy replied, a bit surprised by that revelation.

''It helps that I knew Sam way before the sister location had even opened, and being an animatronic created by one of the original owners does have its perks,'' Springtrap replied in a somewhat proud tone.

''Original owners?'' Springtrap gazed at Glamrock Freddy, who was clearly confused. It was obvious to Springtrap that the Glamrock Animatronic didn't know much about the history of the franchise he was the mascot of. However, that didn't surprise him much, as he figured that even if Fazbear Entertainment would attempt to capitalize of its horrific past, the animatronics would not have access to any of that information. Even the Showtime Animatronics knew what happened to their predecessors only because of the Glitchtrap virus.

''Let's just say that the history of the Fazbear Franchise goes back more than 40 years into the past, back to the 1980s,'' Springtrap explained. Glamrock Freddy looked at him with interest.

''I see… but how do you know that?'' he asked.

''I am far older than any of the animatronics here. I have been there during this franchise's humble beginnings, so I know a lot,'' Springtrap replied, his tone showing once again a sense of pride. However, it was quickly replaced with a tone of bitterness. ''Although, now I'm just a relic of the past.''

''I wouldn't call you a relic of the past,'' Glamrock Freddy replied in hopes to lift his spirits. ''You said you were a Storyteller. Maybe you could tell me and my friends a story about the past of the franchise.''

''I don't believe any of the employees would want you or the other Glamrocks to know about past events,'' Springtrap replied, glancing suspiciously at Victor. The man was too busy explaining to Sam about the layout of the ground floor and the other floors, as well as answering her questions about the charging stations, to even notice the conversation between the two animatronics.

''But, why wouldn't they want us to know anything?'' Glamrock Freddy asked, feeling a bit confused.

''I believe that that's because you are the newest generation of animatronics and they want you to have a fresh start, unburdened by anything that had happened in the past,'' Springtrap replied. He knew that his response wasn't completely true, but it wasn't a lie either. He couldn't tell Glamrock Freddy about the horrific past, but he also needed a good reason to keep the bear animatronic from asking him more questions. Nevertheless, he was certain that this conversation would weight on Freddy's mind, something that was his intention.

''I understand. We are the Glamrock Animatronics, after all, so we should focus on our own performance,'' Glamrock Freddy responded in a rather mature tone, surprising even Springtrap. ''Nevertheless, if possible, I would like to ask for your advice on how to keep the show running.''

''You can rely on me for that,'' Springtrap responded. ''I also hope that I can rely on you for learning more about this location. It is unlike anything I had ever seen.''

''Impressed, huh?'' Glamrock Freddy smirked. ''I have heard that even more attractions will be added, as the building is still under construction.''

''Do you know when it will open?'' Springtrap asked. Glamrock Freddy hummed in thought.

''I'm not sure, but one of the employees said that it would be open before Christmas. We are supposed to have a huge party for that,'' he explained. ''Bonnie, Chica and Roxy are really excited about it.''

''I see…'' Springtrap trailed off, figuring that it would make sense for the location to open before Christmas. After all, families would want to spend time together, as well as be willing to spend money on whatever that can keep their children entertained. So, a place like Pizzaplex would be ideal for families to spend their time and money at. ''If possible, I could pay you a visit during the party. If you don't mind, of course.''

''That would be great,'' Glamrock Freddy replied happily, unaware of Springtrap's true intentions. The bunny animatronic knew very well that, if the Pizzaplex would be flooded with patrons as he assumed, it would make it much easier for him to investigate it since everyone's attention would be on the visitors.

The group eventually reached Monty's Gator Golf, the attraction itself having an overall jungle and swamp-like aesthetic to it, with some alligator props and some cutouts along with sounds one would typically hear in a jungle. Huts could be seen along with alligator rides and cannons. The main lobby had a merry-go-round in the middle that was in the style of golf balls and fake plants. There was also a ticket booth and waiting area on the right corner of the lobby. Upon entering, one would be greeted to the huge jungle display, with alligators popping out of the water repeatedly and the Monty's swamp theme song playing in the background. There was a Gift Shop nearby that had many memorabilia. Around the entire area, there were lots of golf courses with glowing outlines and unique courses. There was also a snack bar called Monty's Gator Grub, where customers could relax and eat food. Above Monty's Gator Golf, there were a series of catwalks with Monty themed turrets. Monty themed rides could be seen through the entire area, and there was also a ''Hurricane-Hole-In-One'' bucket filled with multi-colored golf balls.

Sam whistled at the sight of Monty's Gator Golf attraction, having to admit that, while she never had played golf or even mini-golf, just being at this place made her want to try out a game.

''Hey, Monty!'' Glamrock Freddy called out for his friend, with the group hearing heavy footsteps, followed by the appearance of the mascot of Monty's Gator Golf.

Montgomery Gator was an alligator animatronic sporting pointy teeth, black claws, long shaggy red hair, brown pants, spots on his arms and cheeks, a light yellow color for the belly and lower jaw. He had the same seam on the front of his torso where Glamrock Freddy's chest compartment would open. He had a long tail that ran in five green and yellow segments with each segment having spots and bumps resembling an alligator's scutes. The only unusal colour on his body were the purple feet.

Sam and Springtrap took immediate note of the fact that, while Monty did somewhat resemble the other Glamrock Animatronics, it was clear that he was not part of the band, instead acting as the mascot of his very own attraction. Montgomery gave Sam and Springtrap a rather confusing look, clearly having not expected to have visitors today.

''Uh, hello?'' Montgomery greeted them, his gaze fixated on Sam and Springtrap. ''What brings you here?''

Victor was about to introduce them, only to get interrupted by an overly excited Glamrock Freddy, ''These are Samantha and Springtrap. Samantha is here for training as a technician for the Glamrock Band, while Springtrap is a Showtime Animatronic from the sister location.'' He then glanced at Sam and Springtrap, realizing that he got a bit ahead of himself, but the two just shrugged, while Victor sighed, well aware that Glamrock Freddy just wanted to introduce them all to each other and let them be friends.

''Oh, it is nice to meet you…'' Montgomery wasn't certain how to approach this situation, giving Springtrap a suspicious look, something the bunny animatronic noted, only to turn towards Sam. ''Although, if you're going to be training as a technician for the Glamrock Band, why are you here? I'm not a Glamrock member.''

''She's here because you, Montgomery, are similar enough to the Glamrocks in your structural frame. Also, to make something clear, Samantha primarly works at the sister location, but she will be called whenever necessary and the company wanted to have several technicians who know how to work with you guys,'' Victor quickly explained. ''Well, you guys, and the Daycare Attendant.''

''What about DJ Music Man?'' Glamrock Freddy asked.

''DJ Music Man will need multiple specialized technicians to work on him, but Samantha won't be one of them,'' Victor explained. Sam and Springtrap exchanged glances, not only surprised by hearing a familiar animatronic name, but also wondering why DJ Music Man would need several specialized technicians to maintain him.

''Gee, I'm happy to know that I'm just as important as the Glamrock Band,'' Montgomery said, somewhat enthusiastically, although Springtrap's ears twitched as he picked up on an undertone in his voice, one he didn't completely understand. Glamrock Freddy, in turn, simply smiled at Montgomery.

''Of course you're important! You have a whole attraction just for yourself and I'm sure that a lot of people are going to come to see you on your stage,'' he told him.

''You have a stage?'' Sam asked, with Montgomery looking quite pleased to see her being interested.

''Yes, I do, but it is way smaller than the one the Glamrock Band uses,'' Montgomery replied, sighing. ''It would be really nice to perform with the other Glamrocks, though.''

''Unfortunately, that's not possible. Fazbear Entertainment's policy for the main stage is that it will only have four band members, with any additional atnimatronics being relegated to side-attractions,'' Victor clarified. Montgomery didn't look too pleased by that revelation, frowning and even letting out a low growl that put Springtrap on alert. Glamrock Freddy was also worried, deciding to quickly interfere.

''How about a little game with just the two of us? I know that always cheers you up,'' Glamrock Freddy said, glancing at Victor. ''You won't mind us using the golf course?''

''Well, the golf course isn't scheduled for maintenance, so I guess it won't be a problem as long as you clean up after yourselves,'' Victor replied, turning to Sam and Springtrap. ''We should leave now, we still need to visit the Daycare.''

''Right,'' Sam said, nodding in acknowledgement and waved at the two animatronics. ''Bye Freddy, bye Monty! Maybe we could play a game together.''

''Sure thing!'' Freddy replied, smiling back at her. Montgomery smiled too, although his seemed to be a bit forced. Freddy just placed his hand over his shoulder, steering him towards the the golf course, not noticing alligator animatronic clenching his fists. Springtrap, however, did notice.

''Say, Sam, what do you think of Montgomery Gator?'' he asked her as they walked towards the Daycare, with Victor being a bit ahead of the two.

''I think it's really cool that the Pizzaplex has an alligator animatronic present. It adds more variety,'' Sam replied innocently, her eyes darting from Springtrap to Victory, clearly indicating that this would be a conversation they would have later.

''It certainly does, doesn't it?'' Victor said, having overheard the two. ''Montgomery is one of the more patient and laid-back animatronics here, but he's also programmed to be aggressive, kind of like a real alligator.''

''I hope he's not going to be aggressive towards patrons,'' Sam said.

''Don't worry, none of our animatronics are programmed to harm the patrons,'' Victor replied, only to pause for a moment. ''Although, that is not accounting for any possible glitches. That's what you and I are here for.''

''Got it,'' Sam said, glancing at Springtrap, who just shook his head.

They eventually arrived at the Superstar Daycare, a bright and colorful area, with depictions of grassy hills along with flowers. Unlike the rest of the building, this was brightly lit and resembled a cheerful, ''sunshine and rainbows'' setting, with blue skies, clouds, and a sun. The entire area looked like a large play room, featuring two very large interconnected towers of climbing structures and slides, creating a sort of network and a maze-type attraction. There were also foam shapes all over the room and cutouts of the Glamrocks are posted along the walls. The floor also appeared to be made up entirely out of cushions, with a rainbow bridge that separated the play structures and the ball pit. Above the ball pit was an entrance, with a humanoid animatronic standing on it.

The Daycare Attendant was a jester or clown-like animatronic with a stylized sun-shaped head, white eyes, and a widely-grinning expression, with a light beige side of his face curving over the other color half and overlapping the nose (becoming a crescent moon), and the other half being light amber (going with the sun-part of the design). His head had spikes on its perimeter that resembled sun rays. He had a lanky body with long limbs and large, opposable five-fingered hands (which was gradient from beige to gray with gray fingertips). The Daycare Attendant was fit with a beige-amber shirt which corresponded with his face colors, adorned with two buttons, yellow pants with maroon stripes, and a faint maroon gradient could be seen on his body just above the fabric sash of his waist frills. Both his neck and waist frills were maroon with a yellow stripe. He also wore orange elf-like shoes with a star symbol on the outer part of the shoes, and a moon symbol on the inner part. He had maroon ribbons with bells wrapped around his wrists. The inner animatronic parts could be seen through uncovered sections of his arms, hands, shoulders, and back.

Suddenly, the Daycare Attendant leapt from his platform and dove right into the ball pit, emerging from it and hopping towards them in a playful manner.

''Hello, hello! I see I have new friends visiting me! Have you come here to play with me?'' Sun greeted them, his gaze fixed on Sam.

'''I'm sorry, Sun, but we're here on a tour. This is Samantha, and she's one of the technicians assigned to you, along with the Glamrocks and Montgomery,'' Victor explained, turning to Sam. ''Sun will explain to you all of the rules of the Daycare.''

''Right, right, the rules! Or rather, the only one rule I have is to never turn off the lights,'' Sun told Sam.

''Okay, but why wouldn't you want to turn off the lights?'' Sam asked. Sun stepped closer to her, with Sam feeling a sudden sense of dread.

''It gets very scary when the lights get turned off, so never do that,'' he told her in a threatening tone, only to return a moment later to his more playful self. ''Besides, why should the lights be turned off when we can constantly play like this? We could build blocks, swim in the ball pit, drink Fizzy Faz until our heads explode, and stay up all night!''

''Rest assured, Sun will be an effective caretaker, kicking out those who break the rules. We don't want any trouble here, especially when small children are concerned,'' Victor said, with Sam raising an eyebrow and exchanging dubious glances with Springtrap. They both could see just how zealous Sun was, but they still wondered what exactly would happen if the lights got turned off.

''What was the Pizzaplex like?! You need to tell us everything!''

Both Sam and Springtrap were startled when they were suddenly surrounded by the Showtime Animatronics upon entering Freddy's. Matt, who has also been invited to this meeting, chuckled in response upon seeing their reaction, having expected something like this to happen.

''Calm down, we will tell you everything we know, but how about you giving us some space first?'' Springtrap told the overly eager Showtime Animatronics.

It was late in the evening, with Sam and Springtrap having left the Pizzaplex after they were shown other areas of the building, including DJ Music Man, with Sam looking baffled by the sheer size of the animatronic and walking in a huge semi-circle around him, even though he was just jamming to the music. Springtrap chuckled when he saw her reaction, earning a glare in return. Once they were done with the tour, they returned back to the car and quickly agreed on their next move, which was to call Matt to meet them at Freddy's so they could discuss the situation with him and the Showtimes. Sam also insisted on telling Emma about the Pizzaplex, having decided that unlike the previous times, she would be completely transparent with her mother, letting her know what she can do to help her.

The animatronics sat down at a booth, save for Chica, who quickly dashed to the kitchen to get spare drinks for Sam and Matt. All eyes were on Sam and Springtrap, who were mulling over with which part they should start. Sam hummed, eventually saying, ''So, for starters, we haven't found any activity that we could connect to Glitchtrap.''

''I… guess that's a good thing then,'' Bonnie said, but he didn't sound quite confident about his statement.

''Not really, because that means that we still don't know what Glitchtrap is up to or even where he is,'' Springtrap replied. ''Although, from your reaction, I don't think you're that interested in Glitchtrap.''

The Showtimes were a bit startled to be called out on this, only to lower their gaze. Freddy spoke up, ''Okay, I admit that we were more interested in the animatronics at the Pizzaplex and what they're like.''

''I was just about to get to them,'' Sam replied, understanding their worries. ''The Glamrock Band consists of Glamrock Freddy, Glamrock Bonnie, Glamrock Chica and Roxanne Wolf…''

''Wait, there is no Glamrock Foxy?'' Foxy asked. Sam shook her head.

''I had asked about it, and the guy who gave us a tour told me that Fazbear Entertainment considered a Glamrock Foxy in the planning stages, but then changed their minds,'' she explained.

''I guess that Foxy's pirate aesthetic wouldn't fit at all with any of the glam rock designes,'' Puppet said, turning to Foxy. ''Your fans know you as a pirate, so they wouldn't be too happy if you suddenly changed professions.''

''That makes sense, lassie,'' Foxy replied.

''You're right about that, Puppet,'' Springtrap suddenly said. ''I still remember what happened to Toy Foxy when the Classics were scrapped and Fazbear Entertainment overhauled her design.''

''It turned into Mangle,'' Matt said, with Springtrap nodding. ''Man, I can't imagine how angry or disappointed the children must've felt to give him that treatment.''

''Not to mention the fact that Fazbear Entertainment stopped to bother with fixing Mangle,'' Sam added. ''I wonder what people's reactions to Roxy are going to be. I don't believe she'll end up with the same fate as Mangle, as I don't believe that Fazbear Entertainment would let that happen to her.''

''I suppose I should wish that lass a lot of luck to keep up with me popularity,'' Foxy said.

''Speaking of which, there were a few more animatronics we have met,'' Sam continued. ''One of them is Montgomery Gator, an alligator animatronic who has his own attraction. There is also the Daycare Attendant, or Sun, as he calls himself. Lastly, we also met…'' Sam shuddered, ''DJ Music Man.''

''What's wrong with DJ Music Man?'' Chica asked.

''He is as big as a house!'' Sam said suddenly, surprising the animatronics.

''You're kidding… right?'' Bonnie asked, turning to Springtrap. The bunny animatronic shook his head.

''No, Sam is right. DJ Music Man is just as tall, if not even taller, than this building,'' Springtrap told them. The Showtime Animatronics fell silent, not sure how to react to this news.

''Yeah, I will admit, he freaked me out a little,'' Sam added. ''Mr. Crane said that he is quite friendly, but I'm not taking my chances.''

''I can't wait to see him. Too bad you couldn't take any pictures,'' Matt said. Sam nodded.

''Yeah, but it's not open for the public yet, so I couldn't do that without getting myself into trouble,'' she replied. ''Speaking of which, I did get some impressions of the new animatronics.''

''You mean, besides DJ Music Man?'' Springtrap said in a teasing tone. Sam shot him a glare.

''Yeah… In any case, aside from DJ Music Man, I can say that the Daycare Attendant was also kind a creepy,'' she said. ''He refuses to let the lights be turned off at the Daycare and there was even an accident involving exactly that happening. He is also very in your face in regards to acting as a caretaker at the Daycare. Mr. Crane had also told me that the Daycare Attendant has two forms, Sun and Moon, and that Moon is even more aggressive, but activates only when the lights are off.''

''Well, that explains the 'lights on' rule,'' Matt said, taking a sip of his drink. ''Sounds to me like the Daycare Attendant is going to be a nightmare to deal with, especially since he's the one looking out for the children.''

''I do have something to add to this,'' Springtrap rose his voice. ''The Daycare Attendant is supposed to look after children, and considering how we all know how children can be, they would need an animatronic with a lot of zealousness to keep up with their energy. However, I'm not saying that he won't be problematic in the long run.''

''I can already imagine what kinds of accidents he might cause,'' Puppet said, sighing and shaking her head.

''Next, I want to mention Montgomery Gator, or Monty. He's the mascot of Monty's Gator Golf-'' Sam started, only for Bonnie to interrupt her.

''Wait, the Pizzaplex has a golf course?'' he asked, stunned.

''Yes, and it also has a bowling alley, a race track, a lazer tag arena…'' Springtrap responded in a dry tone, with Bonnie giving him a sheepish look. ''It is a pretty big place considering it was formerly a robotics factory, and from what I've seen, Fazbear Entertainment expanded on it.''

''Uh, sure… Please, continue,'' Bonnie said, quickly turning to Sam.

''Anyways, about Monty… I think it's really cool that they have an alligator as a mascot,'' Sam admitted. ''Although, from what I've seen, Monty doesn't seem to be too happy to be just a mascot of a 'side-attraction', as he calls it. He wants to perform alongside the Glamrock Band.''

''Even though he got a whole golf course for himself?'' Bonnie asked, only to realize everyone was staring at him. He smiled sheepishly. ''Sorry, but I mean, you don't hear Foxy complaining about being at the Pirate Cove or Puppet about being at the Prize Corner.''

''True, but it also helps that I'm specifically created to be at the Prize Corner, just like my predecessor,'' Puppet responded.

''I may be a pirate in me own corner, but I'm still part of the band,'' Foxy pointed out. ''From what Sam had told us, the Gator wants a spotlight alongside the Glamrocks.''

''Speaking of which, all of the Glamrocks also have their own personal attractions, with Glamrock Bonnie being the mascot of Bonnie Bowl, a bowling alley,'' Springtrap added.

''What is Glamrock Bonnie like?'' Bonnie asked curiously.

''Well, he is athletic, loves bowling and he's Glamrock Freddy's best friend,'' Sam told him.

''So, he's nothing like our Bonnie then,'' Chica said, giving Bonnie a teasing look. The latter rolled his eyes.

''I think that's for the better,'' Foxy added, nodding in agreement. Bonnie just sulked, with Foxy then adding, ''It makes ye more distinctive, matey. More unique.''

Bonnie then cheered up, only for his ears to droop when Chica added, ''Of course! Nobody can replace such an audacious person like you!''

''Audacious?'' Bonnie rose an eyebrow, earning a few chuckles from his friends, but he wasn't hurt by it at all. After all, it was just some friendly teasing, and he knew that he built up a reputation as the mischievous member of the band. He then shrugged. ''Eh, I prefer being mischief over bowling anyways.''

''So, who's next, then? How about Glamrock Chica? What is she like?'' Chica asked, turning to Sam.

''Well, she loves food, especially pizza, and her attraction is the Mazercise, where she encourages people to exercise as much as they can,'' Sam explained.

''Well, there is a similarity between the two of you when it comes to loving food, but you're not that much into exercise,'' Bonnie told Chica.

''Not to mention the fact that I cannot exactly eat any food. However, seeing other people enjoying it does make me happy,'' Chica replied.

''There is a bit of an issue I had noticed with Glamrock Chica,'' Springtrap said, drawing their attention. ''It is no fault of her own, though, but the programming she's stuck with.''

The Showtime Animatronics were confused by this statement, but Matt quickly caught on. ''You mean, her promoting both junk food and exercising? Yeah, that could lead to some unhealthy habits, the worst being an eating disorder.''

''I hope Glamrock Chica knows what she's doing then,'' Chica said worriedly. Foxy then turned to Sam.

''What about that lass that replaced me, Roxanne Wolf?'' he asked.

''Well, Roxy seems to be quite vain and wants to be seen as the greatest. She's also highly competitive and the mascot of Roxy Raceway, and indoor go-kart track,'' Sam explained. ''Mr. Crane did tell me that they made sure that Roxy, while competitive, would also let other competitors win to keep things fair, especially since they expect her to race against children.''

''Okay, so lassie is highly competitive, but also needs to lose to keep things fair. Something is tellin' me that she won't like her situation,'' Foxy said.

''I suppose we'll have to wait and see how things develop,'' Sam said, shrugging. ''Lastly, there is Glamrock Freddy…''

''Glamrock Freddy struck me as someone who is quite trusting, honest, friendly, agreeable and quite optimistic. He's quite a stark contrast to your cynical self,'' Springtrap quickly took over, giving Freddy a smug look. Freddy frowned, but he didn't take it as an insult.

''Of course I'd be cynical considering whom I'm dealing with. It sounds to me like the Glamrocks don't know anything about the past of the Fazbear Franchise,'' Freddy said.

''You are correct about that,'' Springtrap replied. ''They don't know anything about what had happened in the past, and I'm certain that it would be better for them to keep it like that, even though I doubt that it will last.''

''What about us?'' Puppet suddenly asked. ''If we had gotten the chance, would you also have kept us in the dark about the past.''

Springtrap kept quiet, clearly weighting his response, before replying, ''Yeah, I would.''

''As I had figured,'' Puppet muttered.

''Nevertheless, I doubt that it would last,'' Springtrap continued. ''You would eventually learn about the past, whether you want it or not. I don't know what would be preferable, though – being aware of the past thanks to a virus, or learning about it slowly as more and more unfortunate events happen.''

''I don't believe that it matters anymore,'' Freddy said. ''Instead, we need to figure out what to do with the information at hand.''

''You're right, although that's not all,'' Springtrap replied. ''Besides the animatronics Sam and I had mentioned, there are also robots known as S.T.A.F.F. Bots. Basically, they're mass-produced robots with a lower level of programming, performing the more mundane tasks at the Pizzaplex.''

''Why would they be problematic?'' Bonnie asked.

''Considering how we're dealing here with a virus who is very capable of corrupting others, I believe that Glitchtrap would go first for the easier target, and a robot that has only a basic programming would be perfect for testing the waters before going after the Glamrock Animatronics,'' Springtrap explained. ''While there weren't many S.T.A.F.F. Bots present at the Pizzaplex, I have no doubt that Fazbear Entertainment would increase their number as a form of cheap labour.''

''In other words, you suspect that Fazbear Entertainment will start firing other employees because they don't want to spend money of them,'' Matt said, with Springtrap nodding. ''What would that mean for Sam?''

''I think I'd be safe,'' Sam replied. ''After all, I primarily work here, not at the Pizzaplex.''

''Not to mention, you are a technician. For all of Fazbear Entertainment's dangerous practices, they would want to keep human technicians on site to deal with malfunctioning robots,'' Springtrap added.

''So, what can we do about this?'' Freddy asked.

''You? Nothing.'' Springtrap shook his head. ''The Pizzaplex isn't open yet for the public, so even Matt cannot do anything.''

''It is disappointing, but I'm planning on going there the moment it opens,'' Matt replied. Springtrap narrowed his eyes, still not too fond of the teenager, but he knew that he couldn't get rid off him. At least, not if he wanted to unleash Sam's wrath upon himself.

''I do have something that might help,'' Sam said, reaching for her jacket and taking out a folded piece of paper out of it. ''This was the map of the place the Map Bot gave me.'' She unfolded it, showing it to the group. ''We have visited most of the main areas, but there are a few places that are out of bounds even for me, but those are mainly office areas and some of the back rooms and part of the basement area.''

''I don't believe that you are going to stay clear of those places,'' Bonnie said, a mischievous look on his expression. Sam then reached for her jacket again, taking out a rectangular blue key card with a golden shield on the left side, a white label reading ''Security'' next to it, and a barcode in the center of the card. She was holding it between her index and middle finger.

''You're right, but I need a Security Badge with a higher level of clearance. This one only allows me to access areas with the Glamrocks, Monty and the Daycare Attendant, as well as Parts and Service,'' she explained.

''Still, it's great that you actually have access to those places,'' Matt replied. Sam nodded, glancing again at the Security Badge.

Admittedly, this is just the beginning.
