The Bond City. This is the most beautiful and good-natured city, where all people are hospitable and treat each other well, of course, there are bad people there, but there are few of them. Every morning in Bond City is beautiful. But not this morning. Not for the Afton family.

Exactly 24 hours have passed since Elizabeth's death. "Circus Baby's Pizza World" didn't even have time to open, as it immediately closed. Charlotte was crying a lot that day. Sammy couldn't understand why she was crying, and neither could Gabriel, Cassidy, Helen, and Thomas. Only Naomi guessed. But she didn't want to believe it. No. It just couldn't be true! Alas, it was true. After the discovery of the body, Scott kicked out all the visitors, saying that it was not safe for them to be in the building now because there was a gas leak. Of course, this is a lie. What do you think he should have said? "I'm sorry, but we're closing because one of the robots killed one child!". The pizzeria didn't open the next day. It's officially closed. The pizzeria has a special basement, where they put all the animatronics. Among other things, Ennard was lying there, or rather what was left of him.

It was even worse at home. William and Clara quarreled for the first time in a long time. It was William's creation, and Clara was well aware of it. She didn't understand why the robot suddenly "broke down", according to William, and killed their daughter? William himself understood that Elizabeth wasn't supposed to be there. Charlotte was supposed to be there. What about K'hadesh? The ghost was not very happy about Elizabeth's death. She wasn't such an annoying kid. But it doesn't matter anymore. He's fine now. The "angel" burst out laughing.

- Idiot. A thick-headed human. Oh, how easy it is. - he would say when no one was around.

Closing his dark eyes, K'hadesh raised his head and shook in ecstasy. He could still smell Elizabeth's blood. So young, so fresh. She still excited and excited the perverted mind of the "angel".

But along with the pleasure came the truth, and it plunged into the ghost, as a dagger plunges into the soft tissues of the victim. Angel... A true angel... Goddess...

Ghost realized that Elizabeth had been taken from him. Her sweet, exciting flesh and blood.

- Fucking Goddess... - he whispered. - You took my girl away from me... Little Elizabeth. You took her blood from me... Such sweet blood...

As soon as he remembered the glowing image of the Goddess, his whole body ached, as if a thousand needles were stuck into it. He felt something similar when he was too close to Elizabeth. She was a very strange child to him. There was some kind of magic coming from her that he didn't understand... But how? How can something supernatural come from some five-year-old child?

All the "angel" wanted was just to get into William's mind and take possession of him. He thought it would be very simple. But William was tougher than the ghost expected. In order to carry out the plan, K'hadesh needed energy. To get it, victims were required. Victims of children. With the help of their flesh and blood, he would have received sufficient energy many times faster. Elizabeth gave him a lot of energy, but it still wasn't enough. He needed more.

- Never mind, bitch... - the ghost croaked. - I'll get to you, too. I'll be back. I always come back.

This time, K'hadesh won't make a mistake. He hadn't been waiting for the Goddess to appear, but now he would be ready for anything. He still had a purpose. The victim whose blood he so badly wanted to drink. And he will get to her... So easy. So soon.

Now back to the Aftons. The funeral will take place in 4 days. William and Clara are getting ready for them, Michael is looking after the kids, Naomi can't forgive herself for not stopping her sister, and Chris... He just locked himself in his room and sits there. Why?

He saw Baby kill Elizabeth.

The thing is that then Chris was sitting in the next room from Baby and heard the sisters arguing about something. Then Naomi left, and Elizabeth walked over to the robot. Chris was watching everything that was happening. He wanted, wanted to save, to stop his sister, but his whole body was paralyzed with fear because of the animatronic, because of her black eyes, because of her convulsions, and then... He blamed himself as much as Naomi.

Michael has changed in character... Dramatically. He became more aggressive. But it manifested itself when something annoyed him. And Chris's nightmares have also become funny to him. If earlier, Michael scared his brother and apologized, now he scares him and laughs at him. Chris tried not to cry in front of everyone, but only in his room. Michael's friends did not approve of his idea. But now it seems to Chris that they have gradually begun to approve of the actions of a friend.

Since Clara is a famous ballerina, everyone who knows her throws sympathetic glances at her. It began to annoy her. The boss gave her a leave of absence for 2 weeks so that she could recover. It is better for a ballerina with stress not to rehearse and not to perform.

And William... He tried to be close to the children. Michael held a little anger at him, because it was dad's robot! Although, Michael held anger not only at him...

William didn't blame K'hadesh for anything. No one could have guessed that Elizabeth would be able to approach her in a cunning way.

So, what excuse did they come up with for Elizabeth's death? Everything is simple. William and Clara called the police and an ambulance and told them that Elizabeth had gone out the back door for some reason, there she came across a dog and she scratched and tore her face. Actually, the dog was really behind the back entrance, as the tracks confirm this. Although this dog did not kill Elizabeth, everyone believed and the corpse was taken away. They didn't even check for blood, because the wounds on the face really looked like a dog's, and the parents talked so strongly about this dog that the police didn't consider it necessary to check for blood. Well done, great job, police. And even if they decided to check the animatronics, they still wouldn't have found anything, since all the blood was washed by adults. No one wanted William to go to jail because of this.

At 14 o'clock, a meeting of the "Gambling Club" was held, in which Elizabeth was the chief administrator.

- I can't believe she's gone... - Helen said.

- It's my fault... I let her approach this Baby... - Naomi said.

- Naomi, honey, it's not your fault. - Charlie moved closer to Naomi and hugged her. - No one is to blame. No one knew this was going to happen.

- I knew! - the brunette pushed her friend away slightly. - I understood that it would not end well, that this animatronic would definitely hurt someone!

- Naomi, even if you knew that, you still couldn't save her... - Gabriel replied. - It is what it is. Don't hold on to the past. Just accept it, understand that it's not your fault. After all, we also saw how she wanted to approach her, but did nothing. It's not your fault or anyone else's.

- If anyone is to blame here, it's my dad... - Chris replied. - It's his creation.

- But he didn't know she'd go that far and kill Elizabeth. - Thomas said.

- It doesn't matter. And Michael also began to behave more irritably.

- That's for sure... - Naomi replied.

- Can we remember what Elizabeth was like? Shall we honor the memory? - Cassidy suggested.

- Well, she was funny and kind. - Charlie began.

- Full of Determination and hopes. - Sammy continued.

- She always came to the rescue. - Naomi added.

- She never let you feel sad and encouraged you. - Thomas said.

- She fought your fears, even if you didn't ask for it. - Chris hugged the plush Fredbear tighter.

- She almost never lied. - Gabriel said.

- And she didn't offend anyone. - Cassidy added.

- She was a very good friend. - Helen finished.

There was a moment of silence.

18 hours 5 minutes

After the meeting ended, everyone dispersed. The funeral is in 4 days. Utter silence reigned in the Afton house. The children were in their rooms, Clara was cooking dinner, and William was stuck in the workshop. He didn't make any robots anymore. He didn't want it anymore. He wanted to see his daughter again. Alive.

- Hello. - K'hadesh's quiet voice came from behind.

William said nothing.

- I don't understand. - William said suddenly. - Why?

- William, I know you're upset, but you can't bring it back. The past cannot be changed. Even God himself can't change it.

- I know, it's just not fair. Why Elizabeth? It had to be Charlotte!

- Speaking of which... - K'hadesh began. - I found an even more serious threat than Charlotte.

- What? - William finally turned around.

He looked tired. Bruises under his eyes, disheveled hair, he didn't sleep all night. However, Clara looked the same.

- Sammy Emily. You know who it is.

- This is Charlie's brother.

- He's a much bigger threat than Charlotte. If we had killed Charlotte first, then the flame of revenge would have flared up in him, and he would have been an even more cold-blooded killer. So it's better to stop him first.

- Well, if it's necessary, then... Okay. - William's mind was weakened after the incident, and he would have done anything the angel told him.

The "angel" smiled.

He had just begun to carry out his plan.
