Earlier In Some Place:

"They're approaching soon. We must act together." -C

"No. I can handle them if they come to me." -P

"I don't think that's a good idea." -C

"Come on Boss. I'm sure they'll be easy to deal with. Allen was an arrogant jerk who had more bark than bite." -K

"And he barked a lot." -L

-Laughter-

"Alright... than you'll deal with them? They are heading towards your location." -C

"Of course I will Boss. They won't be able to handle me! Hehehe~" -P

"Don't get haughty... Penelope." -K

Current Time: Night; Place: Penelope's-

The catered party place called Penelope Poodle's Party Doodle was in a large rectangular building that had two floors instead of one. Inside, there was the first room with a large wooden desk where people would go to first to get signed in before letting their kids play. The next room, which was connected to the first from a door that was right and behind the desk, was divided into four sections by walkways that were between them.

The first section was for younger children and it had kiddie swings and other obstacles and rides for younger children. The second section was closest to the kitchen, and that's where all the kids would sit down on tables to eat, and their parents could sit with them. The third section was for older children and it had larger swings and obstacles for older kids.

The forth section was a stage with rows of chairs before it, and on the stage was two animatronics side-by-side.

One of the animatronics was a Lakeland Terrier dog named Brian, with black fur on it's whole back and neck, and brown fur on the rest of it's body and an extra patch of fur around it's muzzle. The eyes were brown, and it wore a blue cone hat with stars on it's head, and a suit that was all green with multicolored confetti draw all over it, with no shoes so it had all furry feet, and it held a metal clown horn it's hand.

The other animatronic was a Yorkshire Terrier named Max, with gray fur on it's body, and golden-brown fur on it's face, ears, and paws. It's eyes were dark blue, and it wore a black and white tuxedo like a magician, with a top hat that had a silver rim on the outer bottom of the hat part, and it also held a black wand it's hand with a white tip on it.

The two animatronic dogs stood happily on the stage, while their eyes were downcast, and they stood with their arms up and elbow near their sides.

The next area, opposite of the entrance into the first floor room, was a gray stairway that rose up by four steps, and on the right side was a stairway that went upward to the next floor. Straight ahead from the first four steps was a hallway that lead to the night guard's room. The room only had one large entrance with a metal door that could close from top to bottom. On the upper sides of the door was air vents that had metal doors for them that could open and close, but only for a short time since air still had to get into the room. There was a wooden desk in the middle of the room, with a camera monitor and system on one side, and buttons on the other. There were four buttons: two were for each vent door, one was for the main door, and the other was for a light that was just above the main door that would shine brightly at whatever was in the hallway. Behind the desk was another door, although that one was closed, and there was a sign on it that said, "Only use in emergencies or for a quick escape."

The second floor was a large room, a little smaller than the first floor, and there were arcade games on the sides of the walls, and even two dancing games that required stepping on panels that were on the floor. There was also stick hockey, air hockey, and rip-off press-the-button-on-the-right-spot games too. In the center near the back of the room were rows of chairs for kids and parents to sit on, while a lone animatronic stood on a stage of her own.

She was only about four feet and five inches tall, and she was a poodle animatronic. The fur that puffed on her ears and head was hot pink, while the rest of her face and neck were light gray. Her eyes were pale pink, and she wore a white tank top with gray cargo pants, and no shoes. Just below her neck, where the tank top didn't reach up, was a patch of hot pink fur, and her arms, hands, and feet were all gray and had very short fur like the fur around her face. Unlike the other two animatronics who had all shaved teeth, her outer teeth were shaved, while her inner teeth of the endoskeleton were sharp and thin. She was looking straight ahead, where the stairs were, as if she was anticipating something with a bored look in her eyes.

Then she heard the click and creak of a door unlocking from the floor below, as her mouth slowly curled up near the sides of her face into a creepily delighted grin, and her eyes glowed brighter.

'Come in new guards... Let's have some fun...' Penelope Poodle thought.

"This place looks more creepy in person than in the pictures," Mike whispered to Lily, as they made their way across the first floor towards the night guard room.

"Well it is dark in here since it's night," Lily whispered back, as she held her flash light before them, so that they could see where they were going.

"Yeah, but it seems darker than it would be," Mike whispered, as they walked up the four steps.

"It was said in the police reports that there have been 'suicides,'" Lily whispered back.

"Yeah right! And Freddy and the others wanted to have a pizza party instead of shoving me in a suit!" Mike still whispered, as Lily looked at him with one raised eyebrow and half-closed eyelids.

They were able to make it into the night guard's room, and they found two rolling chairs behind the counter, and an extra folding chair leaning on one of the corners of the room.

"I guess this is where we'll work," Mike said, as he sat on the rolling chair near the buttons.

Lily took her seat near the camera monitor, and she placed her bag on the floor just under the desk.

"Yeah. This is where we'll work until six," Lily replied.

"At least management was nice enough to talk to us about this place before coming in," Mike said, as he read the buttons that were before him with labels next to them.

"It's the least they could do with this type of place," Lily said, as she started flicking through the camera with the mouse that was just under the camera monitor.

There were six cameras that Lily was able to look through:

Camera one was just above where the two animatronic dogs were in bird's-eye view,

Camera two was just above the entrance from the first floor to the stairs looking down at the entrance,

Camera three was behind the animatronic on the second floor more to the right so only half of her upper-body was seen,

Camera four was above the entrance from the second floor to the stairs looking down at the entrance,

Camera five was above the entrance from the stairway to the hallway looking at the first and second floors' entrances to the stairs, and

Camera six was in a boiler room of some sort in the upper corner of the room, opposite of a power-switch box with numerous switches on the front of it, and attached to the wall.

"Where is that boiler-looking room? I didn't see the entrance anywhere?" Mike asked, as he looked towards the monitor.

"I think it's the hidden door on the left side of that desk," Lily replied, and Mike nodded and said,

"Oh, that's what management meant by a hidden room."

"It looks like the fuse box is there," Lily said.

"Do you think they'll go in that room?" Mike asked.

"Probably. That could explain why a camera is in there, but I wonder why they would," Lily pondered.

-Ding- -Dong- -Diiiiing-

Lily and Mike looked up at a clock that was above the entrance of the door, but it was part of the wall so only the hands of the clock and lines of the numbers were present. The time showed six o'clock.

"It's time," Mike said, as he placed his fingers on the four buttons, ready to use them.

"Okay. Let's see if they'll move," Lily said, as she flipped through the cameras.

It's been awhile. This is a very informative chapter, I hope you all don't mind. See ya soon.
