Prologue

View Online

Well, my life so far has been great but I've been getting a feeling that something terrible is about to happen soon, somewhere in the future. Now, for some updates on my friends and Charming's lives.

Charming and Twilight have been having some more sex lately, but Twilight has been using an anti-pregnancy spell to protect her from getting pregnant again. I had the book of Equestria’s laws with me so I could see their reactions when they realize that an ancient law, long forgotten, still exists. Also, I’ve been busy messing with Applejack and Charming’s dreams. I accidently made them had a dream sex, which I made sure to seal THAT memory until the time had come.

As for me and Rainbow, we have been more than perfect. Ever since the birth of our child, Sonic, things have been looking up. Rainbow is watching the child than her athletic tricks and stuff and the Wonderbolts have given Rainbow a break for the newborn colt. I had told Rainbow of the news about ancient law and she accepted it quickly. I told her that she will be having other females mates soon and she won't get lonely. Believe it or not, she acts a lot like Rainbow from Canterlot High. The Rainbow there had tried to make me have sex with her since I was this world's Rainbow's husband. But we managed to avoid that but I get the feeling she won't take 'no' for an answer if I knew Rainbow like I do.

Applejack still has feeling for Charming and I discovered that she is purposely ignoring any stallion that gets near her, with the exceptions of her friends. Applejack had even beaten and killed male rapiers who were trying to rape her. Luckily, Applejack beat the living daylights out of them and murdered them in the end. After that, I realized not to get on her bad side.

Pinkie Pie and Shadow have been having a good relationship lately, even had the feeling that they had sex. But Pinkie refuses to say if they did, said that both her and Shadow did the Pinkie Promise to not tell anyone until the time was right. But, I have the feeling that I’ll find out soon enough.

Rarity and Spike have been having a good relationship and I even heard that Spike had an aged accelerated a lot to make him look like an adult. So, I hired him as a Freelancer of the Phantom Consortium. I even provided with some Zebra technology we still had. I gave him Type-1 Energy Sword (Which he turned out skilled with), Type-55 Directed Energy Rifle, Type-51 Carbine, and a Type-25 Grenade Launcher (He titled it as The Brute Shot). I also gave him two Zebra vehicles as well for transportation means. He had his own Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle (He calls is 'The Ghost'). And for his air transportation, which was proven very useful due to it's ability to go into slipstream, was The 'Banshee'. He was very thankful for these new tools of his.

Fluttershy and Discord have revealed that they are dating and maybe going to marry in the future. Who knew? Well, I did, of course. I always knew there was something between the two of them.

Sunset has been having a good life too. Ever since the whole Friendship Games and with the events that had happened, we had been getting along greatly. We left a duplicate of her back at Canterlot High and the real her came back with us to Equestria. Preparations of a wedding were being made but they never had sex yet.

Sonata herself has been working quiet lately. She and the Dazzles has become the best singing band in the entire world. They have been performing and their melody wasn’t so negative anymore. However, that didn’t mean they changed their attitude. I was told by Sonata that Aria has been starting to get her own Harem of stallions and mares (Poor fellas). Adagio had been working on some stuff lately but she, like Aria, had her own harem of sex slaves. Adagio’s harem, however, was mostly males and few females. Sonata didn’t have a harem (Thank Luna for that) and rather has been stalking me lately (Which I didn’t mind). But no one, besides me and Soundwave, have noticed her.

And finally, Trixie. To say the least, she has been busy herself. She’s been training herself to fight with a lightsaber, to become a Jedi. I, however, saw great potential with her and my training with Brutwilight was long over. So, I began to train her and I’ve noticed that after or during lesson, I noticed her blushing. Was she having feelings towards me? I didn’t know but I’m not going to find anytime soon.

I was with Charming and the others. We were inside Phantom’s Funhouse where I was showing Charming around the place after he had agreed with the week of working the night shift. I had made the preparations ready and wanted to make this prank real life. After the tour, the others left and I closed the place for the night later. When I did, the animatronics came active and came over to me.

“Alright girls and guys, tomorrow night, Charming will be here. When that happens, we begin the prank. The secret room has been place, my food supply set, and my synced link with animatronic Danny so I’ll be watching and playing along. Besides, the animatronic Charming is going to be acting like us. So, with all of you completely upgraded, we can communicate and everything. Plus, the link I have connected the phone will allow me to say out voice mail messages. Charming won’t notice a thing.”

They nodded and I began to do something. I created a clone, pulled out a container of blood and poured it down on the ground, making it look like I had died. The clone covered himself in the blood and I pulled out a serum of 24 hour knock out serum that made the heart stop pumping, but remain in stasis and not kill. I went to the hidden room that was somewhere no one would ever think of. I see a nerve gear, a bed, and a refrigerator that was ice cold and had a lot of plasma juices for me to last a week or more. I put on the nerve gear and activated and when the loading ended, I blinked and found myself AS Animatronic Danny. I grinned and the others noticed and grinned with me.

“Let the game…begin.”

In the morning…

When the doors opened, Charming came in with the others. The Clone took the serum and destroyed the evidence. The effects were immediately and the clone was knocked out. When Charming went into the Security room and stopped when he sees the fake dead clone (Which he thought it was me). He ran over to the clone and tried to wake him up. It was muffle from my position but then I heard a ‘NNNOOOO!!’ and some more.

My clone had dismiss itself when the funeral was complete. Charming came into the place and the place was still going. My false will wanted this place to remain and Charming began to ready himself for the week. When no one was looking, I grinned and looked towards Charming.

Night 1

9:00 PM

Charming had closed the place early and went to the office. I left my position and followed him down the hallway and looked inside. I see Charming had put his stuff in the security office, sat on the chair, and took a nap. I smirked and came inside. I put down a letter for him and the letter said…

Dear Charming and friends,
Welcome to my home and game, Charming. I am known as the Puppet Master and the animatronics are my puppets to use. You could say I’m responsible for Danny’s death. If you wish to avenge him, then you must follow my instructions. First and foremost, if you truly want to know who I am, you must survive six nights in this place. Danny knew of my presence and made some phone messages for you to help you. You can invite your friends as well. Attempt to destroy the one place Danny created for these innocent animatronics and I will see to it that you die with agony and watch your love ones die with you.
From, The Puppet Master.

I walked out and returned to my position.

12:00 AM

I began to activate the phone and I could hear the ringing from within the office. When the click went off, I began to speak through my mind and the voice sounded out through the phone.

“Uh, Hello? Hello, hello? Now, I made these recordings to help new recruited night guards with any way to allow them to adapt to their new job. Anyway, in this place, things tend to happen a lot. So, here is the introduction of the place. Welcome to Phantom’s Funhouse, a place where foals and grownups come to have fun. Magic and fantasy come to life. Well, at least you are supposed to be safe in the place. I, myself, programmed the animatronics with a criminal database that allows them to spot out a criminal in seconds and are programmed to arrest or terminate the criminal. Technically, they should be paid to watch you. But when I found these animatronics, they had a common glitch. You see, at night they become…quirky. Now, for some odd reason, they are left in a free roaming mode at night. Something about their servos locking up if turned off too long. So, just so you are aware, the animatronics do tend to wander a bit… Also, to let you know now, when they see you after hours, they may think of you as a metal endoskeleton without its costume on. Just don’t let them get to you or you will be… Well, I guess you could say dead but I, myself, am never sure. So, enjoy your new job and hope to see you tomorrow! Good bye, night guard, and remember, you are the face of Phantom’s Funhouse!”

I made the click turn off and I check the clock on the mainframe. It was currently 2:00 AM, good enough for me. I signaled the others for a song that we planned for tonight.

Sung to the tune of Five Nights At Freddy's 2

Sung mainly by Danny and Chrysalis with other Animatronics

Let’s celebrate!

Make your sorrows go away,
Time for fears to fade.
A jolly night here thou awaits
No use to call for aid.

A-Spike's laughter was heard, echoing the entire place. Charming went to the cameras to see what was going on.

The music box is silently creaking,
Thin thread of life is near a split.
If you are thinking we are merely playing,
Then let’s fool around for a bit!

Your blood’s curdling and heart skips a beat
The nightmare awaits in the shadows
And I could swear I just heard a shriek
Is there something I don’t know?

Inside the office, Charming could hear the music and began to look around the cameras.

A-Spike said “Hello?”
Twilight will tear you apart.
Dolls are opening their mouths.
Rainbow’s baring her sharp teeth,
AJ will make it hard to breath.
Pinkie’s roaring with laughter
Your own flesh is what they chase after
So why won’t you just give up?
You’ll fall asleep and won’t wake up!

Twilight will tear you apart.
Dolls are opening their mouths.
Rainbow’s baring her sharp teeth,
AJ will make it hard to breath.
Pinkie’s roaring with laughter
Your own flesh is what they chase after
So why won’t you just give up?
You’ll fall asleep and won’t wake up!

We stopped singing and I see Animatronic Twilight going down the left hallway while the Animatronic Fluttershy went down the right hallway. They stopped in front of the window and Charming shut the doors but they kept singing.

Those little dolls can handle the scoffing
But what they can’t handle are kids
Poor parents watch as they can do nothing
As children become delicious treats

Cameras show you it’s nearly the end
Leave remaining hope for salvation.
Your screams and struggles will not suspend
The torment and pain are the only redemption

The two left the hallway, allowing Charming to reopen the doors and switch on the cameras to see what was going on.

A-Spike said “Hello?”
Evil craves defeat and chaos
You not staying home was fatal.
Endo, come, enjoy the party
This one sure does look real hearty
Carelessness left you in vain
Walls all sprinkled with blood stains
So why won’t you just give up?
You’ll fall asleep and won’t wake up!

Evil craves defeat and chaos
You not staying home was fatal.
Endo, come, enjoy the party
This one sure does look real hearty
Carelessness left you in vain
Walls all sprinkled with blood stains
So why won’t you just give up?
You’ll fall asleep and won’t wake up!

Charming look on the screen to see what was going on. He goes to the arcade camera, he sees Chrysalis out of her box.

Eat yourself or be eaten
This game cannot be beaten

Chrysalis disappeared in front of the camera. Causing Charming to drop the camera in shock. He looked around the doors.

A-Spike said again “Hello?”
Twilight will tear you apart.
Dolls are opening their mouths.
Rainbow’s baring her sharp teeth,
AJ will make it hard to breath.
Pinkie’s roaring with laughter
Your own flesh is what they chase after
So why won’t you just give up?
You’ll fall asleep and won’t wake up!

The song kept going until A-Spike’s laughter echo all over. The clock was now 5:30 AM, I looked at the camera.

“Alright girls, I’ll make my move.”

I lowered my eye patch that I had on and began to run down the right hallway. When I was about to enter the room, the door closed in the nick of time. I halted in front of the window and see Charming staring right at me. I knocked at the door and began to walk away. I returned to my position and after the half an hour ended, the bells went off and I see Charming coming down the left hallway. He stops in front of me and Rainbow, who were looking normal.

“You know…when I look at you…it reminds me of what you animatronics did to my brother. I don’t even know why I spare this place, but I guess it’s for my brother’s memory.” Charming said with coldness in his tone.

Charming was about to walk away until he heard my gears whirling and he looks at me and gasps in shock when he sees me smirking with my eyes locked at me. A-Rainbow hasn’t change though.

“You know, you should never judge a book by its cover. There is more behind this story that meets the eye. I just hope you can figure that out. After all…” Charming stared with intense “…Danny figured it all out. See you tomorrow night, Night Guard. And maybe tomorrow, we will get you. I just hope you can Survive the next five Night.”

I returned to my pose and Charming stared for a bit longer before walking away, considering the words.

Night 2

View Online

I took off the nerve gear and began to drink some plasma juice. I had a lot on my mind, considering that Charming is, no doubt, going to destroy Phantom’s Funhouse sometime soon. So, I need a plan to prevent him. But that can come later. I needed to be ready for the next time we cross. I was relaxing when something snapped in my head. I was sensing Charming sleeping and I smirked. I disappeared in a flash, preparing to walk into Charming’s dream to turn into a nightmare…

Static echoed and Charming found himself in a black void. He was looking around, wondering where he was at.

"Welcome, My little ponies...I'll be your entertainment for today since everypony is busy at the moment..." A dark cold male voice said.

Charming around and see that the background began to change from black void to a place he had never seen before. He see the Mane 6 along with Applebloom at the table. It looked like a birthday was being celebrated. Then, he caught sight of purple pony. He was wearing a golden Applejack suit and he was taking the others to a room. When they arrived, the doors closed and Charming could get in. Suddenly, there was screaming inside and all sorts of sounds. After a few minutes, the screaming died down and a female pony, Starlight Glimmer, came out and lured Applebloom into the back room and the doors shut close. Charming tried to break through but failed and there was the sound of more screaming. When the screaming died down, the place began to turn back into a void but before he could wake up, there was two words written in blood.

IT'S ME!

I reappeared in my room. No doubt Charming woke up with a scream. Now I gave him a little clue what was the backstory of the animatronics but I need more than that. I shrugged it off and began to go to sleep. I set the clock to wake me up at 6:00 PM, more than normal sleep for me.

The alarm clock began to go off and I woke up. I stretch and did some flying and walking around, keeping my body nice and refresh. I returned from taking a shower and put the nerve gear on and began made my presence lay undetected.

9:00 PM

Charming came into the place with Sunset and Twilight. They closed the place down and Sunset stared at me. I resumed control of the animatronic since it was closing time.

Sunset said with impress “I have to admit. When Danny told us he owned a place called ‘Phantom’s Funhouse’, I never exactly believed him. Now, here is the proof.”

“He was right about that but I have the feeling there is something amiss to these animatronics.” Charming said with some suspicious.

Twilight was observing the cast on the stage, Charming went to the arcade and when Sunset got closer, my eyes looked at her. Sunset, noticing my eyes glaring right at her, screaming in shock and I made my eyes go back to normal. Twilight and Charming came to Sunset, who was on the ground shaking.

Twilight asked “Sunset, what happened!?”

Sunset said with nervousness “That…machine looked right at me!”

Twilight and Charming looked at me but I held my position.

“Oh Sunset, you were just imagining it.” Twilight said, trying to reassure Sunset.

Charming answered with a cold tone “Actually Twilight… They do move at night.”

Twilight looked at Charming with disbelief.

Twilight asked “Are…are you sure?”

Charming replied “Yes. They are left in free roaming mode at night but why this animatronic Danny looked at Sunset was against its programming or protocol, but I’m not entirely sure.”

Charming looked at me again and Sunset got up. The three left to go into the office and I looked towards their way and grinned.

“Tonight is going to be a fun night…”

I returned into position.

12:00 AM

I began to make the phone ring and then I activated the recorded message speaker.

“Hello? Hello, hello? Uh, hey, welcome to Night 2! I would have thought you would have leaved here for good, because some would do that. So, if you are still here, congrats! Uh, you better watch the cameras while I am talking. I found out that the animatronics move around during that beginning of the night.” I could hear the tablet going up, no doubt from Charming. “Uh, have you ever been at Cloud’s Cove? The two animatronics there, Rainbow and Danny, are actually a unique pair. Believe it or not, they spend a lot of time together like their originals. Though it is unclear if they had done any…interaction with each other. I mean, when I found the animatronics, I knew almost nothing of them. So, I’m not sure how they act. However, I learned some things like on Sunday, they forget about the night guard and they go into what they call ‘Debauchery Sunday’. Well, the word itself tells you what they do around Sunday. Anyway, I’m getting off topic here. So, I need you to check them every now and then. The reward of that is that they won’t attack you instantly as long as you keep an eye on them. Anyway, what else. Oh yes! You probably noticed the music box that wasn’t on yesterday. Well, for some odd reason, the animatronic Chrysalis isn’t normally active on Mondays so it was your lucky day, I guess. Anyway, better keep that music box wound up or she will come after you. Also, you probably noticed the singing from the first night. Yeah, I found out the animatronics sing at night, but these songs are more based on night time. Each night is a different song so it is never always the same. So, uh, I guess that is it. Oh, and one more thing. As the week goes on, the animatronics tend to be more active so you can expect more and more of them to come after you. Anyway, good luck for Night 2 and keep on coming back. Alright, good night.”

I turned the phone and check the time. It was currently 3:00 AM and I knew it was time. I signaled the others and the song began to play.

Sung to the tune of Five Nights at Freddy's

Sung mainly by Animatronics, Danny, and Charming

We're waiting every night
to finally roam and invite
newcomers to play with us
for many years we've been all alone

We're forced to be still and play
The same songs we've known since that day
An imposter took our life away
Now we're stuck here to decay

Sunset (on the right) and Twilight (on the left) flashed their door lights and they see the animatronics. A-Twilight was on Twilight’s side. A-Fluttershy was on Sunset’s side and they shut their doors.

Please let us get in!
don't lock us away!
We're not like what you're thinking

We're poor little souls
who have lost all control
and we're forced here to take that role

We've been all alone
Stuck in our little zone
Since 1987

Join us, be our friend
or just be stuck and defend
after all you only got

Five Nights at Phantom's
Is this where you want to be
I just don't get it
Why do you want to stay

Five Nights at Phantom's
Is this where you want to be
I just don't get it
Why do you want to stay
Five Nights at Phantom’s

The two animatronics left and they opened the doors. Charming was flipping through the cameras and when he looked at Cloud’s Cove, he sees me, Animatronic Charming, and Animatronic Rainbow staring right at the Camera.

We're really quite surprised
We get to see you another night
You should have looked for another job
you should have said to this place good-bye

It's like there's so much more
Maybe you've been in this place before
We remember a face like yours
You seem acquainted with those doors

Sunset shined her light and sees A-Rarity right there in front of the door. She shuts and A-Rarity was banging against the door. Animatronics Applejack and Fluttershy were advancing there.

Please let us get in!
don't lock us away!
We're not like what you're thinking

We're poor little souls
who have lost all control
and we're forced here to take that role

We've been all alone
Stuck in our little zone
Since 1987

Animatronics Twilight, Charming, and Rainbow began to advance down the left hallway, causing Twilight to close the door.

Join us, be our friend
or just be stuck and defend
after all you only got

Five Nights at Phantom's
Is this where you want to be
I just don't get it
Why do you want to stay

Five Nights at Phantom's
Is this where you want to be
I just don't get it
Why do you want to stay
Five Nights at Phantom’s

The power in the room had come to an end. Sunset and Twilight went to cuddle with Charming, who all three went to the back of the room. The left door opened; nothing there. Then, the right door opened and they see three pairs of glowing eyes staring right at them. Then, they looked to the left and see three more glowing pair of eyes. Suddenly, me and A-Charming appeared in front of them, our eyes glowing right at them. We screeched but halted halfway when we heard the bell go off. The animatronics stood stiff and then walked away. I halted at the left door and turned to look at them, a smirk on my face.

“This victory shall soon turn into despair.” I said with a cold chill tone in my robotic voice.

I walked out, head back to my position, and disconnected.

Night 3

View Online

I woke up from my playtime with Charming, Sunset, and Twilight last night. I got myself a plasma juice box and drank it. Not long after I did that, I felt three dreams, no doubt from my playmates from last night. I could also sense Luna defending them from nightmares and I smirked at the challenge. I teleported into their dreams, making them a shared dream. For extra security, I changed my form into the Tantabus.

Once again, I created the static and I see Charming, Sunset, and Twilight looking around, noticed their together. Then, I see Luna appear.

Charming said “It’s here.”

“I sense it…” Luna added.

I smirked and the environment changed to the backroom Charming should remember. They gasped when they see the dead bodies of the Mane 6 and Applebloom. I landed outside the door and transformed into the Animatronic Chrysalis. I hoped the door and hovered inside. They looked towards me, Charming gasping as he recognizes A-Chrysalis. I began to hover to the bodies and put presents down. Then, when the Mane 6 had their heads, I opened the presents and put the heads on the dead bodies. Then, I disappeared and the dead bodies turned into the Animatronic Mane 6. They gasped, Charming piecing this together.

Charming said, finding the conclusion “The animatronics…the original cast…They are haunted by the spirits of the Mane 6! But this makes little sense. What does Applebloom have anything to do?”

The animatronics walked over to Applebloom’s dead body. A-Applejack put her dead body on her back and she walked away to the generator. They appear in the room and they see A-Applejack looking right at the Golden Applejack suit. Charming gasped at it while Twilight, Sunset, and Luna stared right at it with confusion.

Twilight asked “What is it Charming?”

“Starlight and her partner used that suit to lure the Mane 6 and Applebloom to the back room.” Charming replied coldly.

A-Applejack put Applebloom’s dead body into the suit and after a few seconds, the soulless eyes had small white pupils and the suit came alive and got up. It looked around and then looked at A-Applejack and they hugged each other. The environment changed to a black void again.

Charming said “I think this was what Danny was uncovering before he was killed…”

I changed my appearance to NightmareJack from Five Nights at AJ's 4 (It's a nightmare so I can access the form).

“That’s right.” My voice sounded similar to Applejack's but much more ghostly and haunted. They turned to face me. They gasped when they see my appearance. I was grinning, revealing my very sharp teeth. “This isn’t just a game. Something big is coming. When it’s over, you will know TRUE TERROR!”

I pushed a hidden button, the entire place turned black. My three guested looked around until they feel themselves falling down into a pit of darkness.

I appeared in my hidden room, knowing that the four had woken up from their vision/nightmare. It made me grin even further now that Charming understood what he was dealing with. I went to my nerve gear and activated it and I lay asleep in the virtual world until the time came.

8:00 PM

I woke up from my virtual sleep and see the place closing down. I see Charming was with Twilight, Sunset, Applejack, and Rainbow. I mentally smirked, this was getting more and more fun. Time to call in for some reinforcements.

“Hey girls, we have five people now. Want to have some fun, Vinyl and toy crew?”

A-Vinyl replied on the mind communication link “You know me Danny. The more, the merrier.”

“Alright, here is the game plan. Pinkie and Discord, I want you two to visit them tonight. Give them a goof fright for me in the office. Twilight, Charming, and Octavia will attack down the left hallway with Rainbow to back them up. Rarity, Fluttershy, and Trixie will attack down the right hallway with me to back them up. Vinyl and Applebloom, you two will attack from behind them. I’ll give them a heads up about that so they have a fair chance to fight back. CMC, I want you three to go with Discord and Pinkie. The rest of you guys stay hidden from camera. Tomorrow, you will get your chance Sunset and Twivine. Alright, let’s do this!”

They all nodded in the mind. I see Rainbow walking up to me and A-Rainbow.

Rainbow said with a smile “I like how Danny did my animatronic. Now, we are both pirates.”

Rainbow admired us a bit more before walking away. Me and A-Rainbow looked at each other before smirking for tonight.

12:00 AM

I began to make the phone ring and then, started the message recording.

“Hello? Hello, hello? Uh, welcome to Night 3! To be honest, I never expected anypony to last this long beside me. Well, I mean no insult, of course! It’s just that… well, they would have left by now. Anyway, I shouldn’t take too long, Tonight, things get real. Remember how the original cast will try to get you? Well, after Night 2 and beginning of Night 3, the Toy animatronics, located at the Arcade, will begin to take a role here as well. Unlike Applejack, who normally stays on stage, Vinyl goes after you regardless. Uh, I will also want to inform you about a couple of animatronics. Their names are Pinkie Pie, Discord, and the CMC. Unlike the others, these five are rather peaceful. They appear in your room at random but don’t show hostiles to these five. Otherwise, you will trigger their chaotic mode. So, Pinkie would become Pinkamena and you get the rest. Also, if you haven’t already noticed, I had a flashlight stored in the desk for helping to prevent the animatronics that appear from behind. If you haven’t already noticed, there is a clear glass window behind you. Vinyl herself normally appears there to get behind you to scare you. But there are two others. I call them the Golden Twins; Golden Applejack and Golden Pinkie Pie. There was a Golden Fluttershy but she went…missing. Uh, Golden Applejack makes an appearance around after Night 2 and Golden Pinkie makes an appearance around after Night 3. So, use your flashlight against them when they appear or they will get you and call it ‘Game Over’, for you I mean. So, keep things alright and see you at Night 4! Oh, and before you consider it, I’ve noticed that animatronics Sunset and Twivine haven’t made an appearance. Don’t worry, they normally appear after Night 3. So, good night and keep the music box wound up. Also, to warn you now, don’t use too much of your power and the flashlight does have batteries. Oh, I almost forgot! Watch out for Balloon Spike. He will temporally disable your lights and doors, leaving you open for an attack. Here is a piece of advice; If you hear his traditional “Hello?” then you know immediately that he is very close and use the light to shine on him. If you see him, close the door or power is zapped. Anyway, good night and see you tomorrow.”

I ended the call and the music began to go.

Sung by the tune of Survive the Night

Sung by Danny, Pinkie, Discord, and All Animatronics

Let's try to make it right
Don't wanna start a fight
And we're so sorry if we
Give you all a little fright
We're not so scary if you see us in the daylight
You'll be so happy just as long as
you Survive the Night

Suddenly, Pinkie and Discord appeared in the room, making everyone inside gasped in shock and almost faint.

Hey there!
How ya doin'?
Nice to meet you, are you new in town?
Don't think i've seen you before,
It's great to see new faces around!
And if you like it,
i can give a tour
Of our enchanting wonderland,
New and improved without the doors!
There's no escape but then,
Who would wanna leave?
It's a fantastical paradise,
And it's not, make-believe!
I'm so glad to have an other member of the band,
You're one of us now,
So let me take you by the hoof!

Discord’s eyes changed from normal to soulless black with white pupils.

BUT WHAT IS THAT I SPY?
WITH MY ROBOTIC EYE?
I THINK I SEE A BIT OF FLESH INSIDE THE NEW GUY!
MAYBE HE ISN'T EVERYTHING THAT HE SEEMS...
TIME TO INVESTIGATE
WHAT'S UNDERNEATH THE SEAMS!

Discord’s eyes changed back to normal and then, they see animatronics at the door and they closed the doors.

They held there for a moment before they kept singing and the five of the guards were backing up.

Forgive me for being suspicious,
Mischief's not on my brain
We're programmed to be pragmatic
If someone messes with the mainframe

It's not that we don't trust you,
We do!
We love you, too.
It's just that, here's at Phantom's,
...We have a few rules

Pinkie, Discord, and the CMC’s eyes changed to Soulless Black with white pupils.

AND IF YOU BREAK THEM,
WE WILL HAVE TO BREAK YOU
LIKE YOU BROKE OUR HEARTS
WE'LL BE FORCED TO REWIRE YOU
AND REPAIR YOUR DAMAGE PARTS

Their eyes changed back to normal.

Now, you wouldn't want that,
And frankly, neither would i.
But sometimes to do some good
You've gotta be
The bad guy!

IN THIS WORLD, WE PLAY
WE HOPE THAT YOU WILL STAY
AND WE WILL THROW A MOST
ELECTRIFYING SOIREE
FORMAL ATTIRE ID REQUIRED
FOR YOU TO TAKE PART
YOU'VE GOT SOME SKIN THAT NEEDS
REMOVING BEFORE WE START...

There was a good pause, power was quickly draining away.

Pinkie began to laugh, which was a bit creepy but then, they see A-Spike appear in the room when no one was noticing and I took this chance and I came into the room. I began to advance on them but I stopped and my eyes changed to soulless black with white pupils.

When the song ended, the five ran out of the room, which made me chuckle. They found themselves at the center of the dining room when they see A-Twilight and A-Charming blocking the exit. Then, they found themselves surrounded but before the animatronics could strike, the bells rang out and we stopped. We went back to positions and hold there for the next night. I disconnected my nerve gear.

Night 4

View Online

I woke up on my bed. I wanted to go out into public to see what was going on but knew otherwise. Then, maybe I can see through Rainbow’s mind, since she was here last night. I had a plasma juice and when I finished, I felt the presence of five dreams with Luna on guard. I smirked, threw away my trash, and teleported into Rainbow’s mind.

I appear in the dream undetected and see Rainbow flying around, doing some tricks and trying to break through her Sonic Rainboom to perform the Double Sonic Rainboom. Then, when she stopped, she landed and the environment changed from happiness to sadness. I frown at the change. Then, memories began to appear around us. The time when Rainbow and I first raced, when we helped Applejack with her Apple Family problem, when we and Pinkie Pie pulled a prank on Spike, Twilight, Charming, etc. It felt like forever and I sigh in defeat. I couldn’t let this continue any further and I appeared in front of her, turning the environment into Rainbow’s home. She gasped but then dismiss me.

Rainbow said with depression “Just another dream illusion…”

“Gees, and here I thought you loved my creations of Animatronics Rainbow and Danny as pirates.”

That got Rainbow’s attention. She turned to me and I smirked.

“D-Danny?” Rainbow asked with shock.

“The one and only. Back from the grave. Ooohhhh~”

Rainbow examined this for a moment before hitting my shoulder.

Rainbow shouted with shock “You’re real!”

“Ow…but yeah. I guess I do deserve that.”

Rainbow shouted “But wait! Charming said you were dead!”

I chuckled “I made preparations for a prank.”

"A prank?” Rainbow asked with confusion.

“I call it “Five Nights at Phantom’s!” and its where I’M THE PUPPET MASTER!!”

Rainbow gasped before a few seconds, she smirked.

Rainbow replied “Charming told us that there was a pony behind the death of you. But I didn’t…I never thought you were the puppet master. So, why are you trying to kill us?”

“We’re not. We want to scare you all, making them think it is the end but in the end, we laugh at their priceless reaction. I’ve been playing Phone Guy, Puppet Master, and Animatronic Danny at once. I’ve been Animatronic Danny, trying to bring scares to Charming.”

Rainbow replied, realizing what was going on “Ooohhhh, I get it now! Well, I want to be part of the adventure.”

“Can’t but I want you to stay out of this until Day 7. There, I will reveal myself.”

Rainbow said with a frown “Alright.”

“One more thing. Tell no pony of this encounter. If they were to find out I am still alive, they will dig up the grave and learn I’m not there.”

“Alright. See you later.” Rainbow answered.

I nodded and teleported out of the dream.

I appear in the share dream I had connected all six ponies in. This time, we were in a new backroom. They see Starlight on top of a destroyed animatronic body of Rainbow Dash, holding an axe with her magic.

Starlight said “Finally…I’ve covered my tracks. I still can’t believe I got away with murder… five whole times.”

“We remember…”

“We don’t forget…”

Starlight asked to no one “What?”

Suddenly, seven figures appeared in front of Starlight.

S-Applebloom said “We know what you did…”

Starlight said in fear “No…” Her eyes changed to soulless black with small white pupils. “No, no, NO! Not you! No!” She began to back up, away from the spirits of the mane 6 and Appleboom, who were slowly advancing. “Stay back! Stay away from me!”

S-Applebloom said with a creepy smile “Don’t stay away from me Starlight…”

“Stay back! Uh, uh, don’t touch me! Don’t look at me!” Starlight shouted while she was heavily panting in fear and panic. The spirits were still advancing. “I have to hide.” She looks around and sees Spring Sunset’s body. “Here!” She goes to it and puts it on. The Spirits looked at her, confused. After she has it on, she slowly began to chuckle until it became complete laughter. “Can’t hurt me now, can you!?”

Charming growled with hate “Starlight…”

Twilight saw something “Wait, look!” She shouted while pointing.

She stopped laughing as spring locks flew out of the suit before something inside happens. A burst of blood splashed out. Starlight began to gurgle and choke as she felt her insides burst. She fell to the ground, screaming in pain. She looked at the spirits.

Starlight shouted her plea to them “Help me! I’m sorry for what I did to you! I was so consumed in anger! Ever since I got banished from Our Town, I wanted revenge! I was young and naïve, I didn’t know what to do back then. Please, help me!”

“Why should we help you? You killed us, this is exactly what you got coming to you.” S-Rainbow asked with hate.

Starlight began to cry and replied “I lost my partner…my love one…to that cursed black stallion, Danny Eclipse!”

The six dreamers gasped in shock.

“My son had a hoof in this?” Luna said with shock.

S-Twilight replied “Vincent, or Purple, whatever you call him, had it coming. He was a maniac just as much as you.”

S-Pinkie added “You were the one who did this to us! You deserve this fate as much as us!”

S-Rarity added more to the pile of hateful reasons “You let that brute of a lover rape me!”

Starlight began to cry even more “I’m sorry…”

S-Twilight said with coldness “Normally I would resort to friendship, but you are beyond redemption Starlight Glimmer. But now that we are free, you are curse to live the life of an animatronic like we did…forever. May Celestia have mercy on your brutal evil soul, Starlight Glimmer.”

The 7 spirits faded away. Starlight eventually died in the suit before it became active and began to twitch, its eyes glowing. The vision began to fade away.

Charming asked “What…what happened after that?”

I appeared in front of Charming, but my appearance was Nightmarejack.

“She waited for thirty years. Then, she was found and placed in a broken down place known as Applejack’s Barn: The Horror Attraction. There, she met with the face of her supposed killer, Danny Eclipse. Danny beat Starlight at her own game and brought both Starlight and Purple back to the place known as Phantom’s Funhouse where they become part of the new attraction and they enjoyed their new life. But this isn’t over yet, for your time is approaching when you have to face the Puppet Master.”

I disappeared and cancelled the nightmare.

I appeared in my room. I went to my nerve gear and put it on for tonight’s event.

9:00 PM

I see the place closing down. I had even heard rumor that there was going to be a school play being held on Sunday morning, it will be about Charming and the Lunar Wars. Perfect time to reveal the truth too. That was when I see Charming walking up to me.

Charming said “Why didn’t you kill us when you had the chance? You could have ended it when you were singing last night, but why didn’t you? There is something off about you and I am going to find out.”

I see Twilight and Sunset again. But this time, with them, was Nyx. They were walking to the office but Nyx stopped before entering the hallway. She looked at me and almost gasped in shock when she noticed me smirking and looking her way.

“What are you?” Nyx asked.

“I’m your nightmare come to life.”

Nyx shook off the fear and ran to Charming and the others. I returned to my position.

12:00 AM

I began to make the phone ring and activated the recording message.

“Hello? Hello, hello? Uh, well, I better be quick. Tonight, I think ALL the animatronics are after you now. I will tell you though; the Sunset animatronic seems to be with the Twivine animatronic for a long time. But Sunset acts…different than the others. She, for some odd reason, has an off personality of being sometimes cruel to the original cast and toys. You know, there was a time when there were two animatronics, the originals. Their names were Fredjack and Spring Sunset. But the economy that went bankrupt and ended was scraping the two. But I heard Spring Sunset had somehow survived and I went seeking it. However, it feels to be different at night. I still search for Fredjack to see if I can add her with the attraction. Anyway, keep an eye out and things will be getting wild. I just hope you can survive for the night and good luck, you’re going to need it. Alright, good night.”

The Phone clicked and I smirked when A-Sunset and A-Twivine appeared in front of me.

“Alright you two, it’s your time to shine. Sing them a death song.”

They grinned and the original cast left the stage. A-Sunset and A-Twivine were on the stage. A-Twivine hacked into the phone, causing it to ring again.

Sung by the tune of I’m the Purple Guy

Sung by Sunset, Twivine, and Phone Guy

Hello, hello? Uh, this is just a friendly reminder of company policy regarding the safe room. At no point should a customer go inside. There was a pause Management has also been aware of the Spring body animatronic has noticeably been moved.

The Phone clicked off and Charming looked on the monitor and sees A-Sunset and A-Twivine on the stage, they looked like they were now singing.

So here we are, my body inside this nightmare, don't you stare for too long at my curse

It happened too fast, what happened in the past, is something I would constantly rehearse

Yeah I'm aggressive, nightmare unleashed, feast your eyes on my magnetic, demise beneath

All the tattered wires, your futile demise will become your curse

So I trapped myself away from immortal dismay, then the blood so profound came to send me down

All the cable in my brain making me go insane, but the soul still lives

I am, The Purple Mare, come to see the show tonight, turn the spotlight onto me, my body's ready now begin

Now the Purple Rise'll come to conquer all your cries

The phantoms are the less of your worries, so you better hurry, just crank the noise, I'm the Purple Mare.

YOU NOW DIE!!

There was a pause and there was the sound of doors closing. The guards were now trapped and they kept watching the two.

It's been too long, the bloodshed on the walls inside of me, what was I to do when they could see

There's only one suit, what else was I to shoot, yet now I'm stuck for all eternity

So now I suffer, turmoil and fear is all around you see the phantoms are yet to be freed

But they're stuck inside, the immortal fire, that burned them all 'til the end was surely near

So I trapped myself away from immortal dismay, then the blood so profound came to send me down

All the cable in my brain making me go insane, but the soul still lives

I am, the Purple Mare, come to see the show tonight, turn the spotlight onto me, my body's ready now begin

Now the purple rise'll come to conquer all your cries

The phantoms are the less of your worries, so you better hurry, just crank the noise, I'm the Purple Mare!

YOU NOW DIE!!

There was a long pause. Then, they began to sing again.

Leave me alone, I'm caught to the bone, the Sunset has risen, Celestia damn she's not alone.

Leave me alone, I'm caught to the bone, the Sunset has risen, Celestia damn she's not alone!

I am, the Purple Mare, come to see the show tonight, turn the spotlight onto me, my body's ready now begin

Now the purple rise'll come to conquer all your cries

The phantoms are the less of your worries, so you better hurry, just crank the noise, I'm the Purple Mare!

Leave me alone, I'm caught to the bone, the Sunset has risen, Celestia damn she's not alone!

When the song ended, Sunset and Twivine appeared in front of the group inside the security office.

A-Sunset asked “Impressive show, wasn’t it?”

“You’re the true killer, Starlight Glimmer…” Charming growled in anger.

A-Sunset shouted with glee “The one and only! I have Danny to thank for bringing me back from decay!”

Twilight shouted “You’re alone! You don’t have this “Vincent” with you!”

A-Twivine pointed out “Actually, I am the Purple Guy, otherwise known as Vincent Waller. I may have died, but my soul still lives. And Danny built me this body to use.”

The group began to back off but then the bells rang and A-Sunset looked at them as A-Twivine teleported away.

A-Sunset warned “Don’t think this is over. You still have two more nights…” A-Sunset began to walk out the door but halted and looked at them with a smirk “Danny died in this cursed place. The original cast is haunted as well as the Animatronic Chrysalis. There is a possibility that Danny’s soul may be haunting an animatronic body, like Danny’s animatronic for instance. But like the others, he’s probably bended to the will of the Puppet Master.”

A-Sunset teleported away from the office through the door, leaving the group to think it over. I disconnected from the animatronic body.

Night 5

View Online

I woke up on the table and grabbed a plasma juice and began to drink it. Shortly after that, I detected their dreams but I didn’t see the reason why I needed to go to them. I teleported to the back room in the Phantom’s Funhouse, where it was known as the Spare Parts and Service room was.

I appeared in the room and began to grin. In this room, there were two new sets of animatronics. The Canterlot High Crew and the Dazzlings that I scanned their figure and everything and the Insanity Crew [Brutalight, Pinkis, Rainbine, Applepills, Fluttershout, Rarifruit, and Darkbine]. I had already finished most of them but there were still a couple to finish before proceeding with them. I began to get to work on them, since I had nothing else to do.

I had teleported to my room later on. I had saw that my progress with them is almost complete. They should be finished come tomorrow then I can use them to cause some trouble on Night 6. I had went to my nerve gear and put it on. I could see through my animatronic eyes and I went into the sleep mode to be ready to act.

9:00 PM

I woke up and see Charming talking to Celestia.

Celestia said “…will they act during the day?”

“They shouldn’t. They are normal during the day so we will put them on shut down mode for safe precautions. The play can keep going without interruption.” Charming reassured her.

Celestia asked for assurance “Are you sure? They aren’t bad at day?”

Charming replied “Not normally. They keep to their business. Its only around night when they can move.”

Celestia glanced at me but I was still in position. She looked among the animatronics and nodded.

“Alright, I can trust you. What about your search of Danny’s killer?” Celestia asked.

Charming sigh in defeat and replied “Nowhere close to finding him. And the animatronics don’t help at all; they more likely get in the way.”

Celestia suggested “Well then, shut them down.”

Charming began to think about it before nodding. I smirked mentally, myself alone can override the shutdown protocol so I’ll be having some fun tonight. Celestia nodded and left. I went back into my sleep mode.

12:00 PM

I reactivate but made myself look still in sleep mode. I couldn’t sense the others awake so I assumed that I was the only one online at the moment. I began to make the phone call and activate the recording message.

“Hello, hello? Uh, hey, welcome to Night 5! This may not be the best time to mention that I’ve been thinking for some time and began to wonder if it was wrong not to tell that the animatronics act like they are alive or something. Uh, they began to glitch around Night 6 and 7. Their eyes turned soulless black with white pupils. Uh, remember when I mentioned that I found the animatronics. Well, one of the was out of order and that one was one of my favorites, Rainbow Dash the Pirate Pegasus. I checked her out that she was tampered with and noticed that she was programed that caused the Bite of 87’. It was reported that Apple Entertainment almost lost the place so they put her out of order. I fixed what they messed up and gave them a second chance. However, it’s the Danny Animatronic you should be worried about. He can…defy his programming. Meaning; he can still wonder at night and can reactivate the animatronics. Uh, that’s all I got to say and good luck for Night 5.”

I made the phone go off and I began to hack the cameras. I could see Twilight, Charming, and Sunset wandering the place. I noticed that Nyx was inside the office. She was looking through the camera that stared right at Cloud’s Cove. She got the message, no doubt. Time for some fun. They all had ear plug communication and they were talking. I began to hack the radio waves and found the channel I was looking for.

Nyx said with urgency on the radio “…I’m telling you, the Danny animatronic can break protocol! I’m watching him now, if he moves, I’ll inform you.”

“You’re just overreacting Nyx. Danny would have fixed the problem if there was one. Don’t worry, it’s just an old message scaring you.” Charming said.

They stopped talking. I mentally smirked and I opened my eyes and looked at the camera, showing my robotic teeth as well. I could hear Nyx scream from the room.

Nyx shouted with fear “Father, the Danny animatronic is looking at the camera with its teeth shown! He’s active, I’m telling you!”

Twilight sigh and replied “Nyx dear, I’m on my way to see.”

I activated my static, causing the camera to static and I began to move to intercept.

Nyx shouted with alert “Guys, I lost him! The Danny animatronic has left Cloud’s Cove and going somewhere! I’m looking for him now!”

I began to activate the music function, my music playing through the speakers.

Song by the tune of Noticed

Sung by Danny

All I wanted was to be on the stage
But I'm living my dreams
From inside of a cage

Don't look away
Don't turn your back
Don't you dare disengage
Joints are rusty,
Tank is empty,
Now I'm running on rage!

All alone on Cloud Cove
It drove me half insane
Even if you'll never hear,
I'll sing a cheer to ignore the pain

BUT I JUST WANT TO BE NOTICED
I ONLY CRAVE YOUR GAZE
BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AWAY
FROM MY DISPLAY
IT SENDS ME IN A CRAZE
'CAUSE I JUST WANT YOU TO NOTICE
I JUST WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW
BUT NOW MY HEART IS DARK
MY BITE IS WORSE THAN MY BARK,
I JUST WANNA PUT ON A SHOW
I JUST WANT TO BE NOTICED
I JUST WANT TO BE NOTICED
I JUST WANT TO BE NOTICED
I JUST WANNA PUT ON A SHOW!

Twilight made it to the Dining Room and sees that I’m not on Cloud’s Cove stage. Before she could say something, she felt something metal touch her shoulder. She looked and see me, grinning. I screeched in her face, causing her to knock out. I dragged her to under a table. I began to proceed even further, looking for others.

All I wanted was to play in the band
Even if it was challenging
With a hook for a hoof...

You never listened
Never bothered
Never looked my way
It's only fair for me to visit you
And make you pay!

All alone on Cloud Cove
It broke my heart in two...
You never came to see me
So now I'm coming to see you

My eyes changed from normal to soulless black and small pure white pupils.

BUT I JUST WANT TO BE NOTICED
I ONLY CRAVE YOUR GAZE
BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AWAY
FROM MY DISPLAY
IT SENDS ME IN A CRAZE
AND I JUST WANT YOU TO NOTICE
I JUST WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW
BUT NOW MY HEART IS DARK
MY BITE IS WORSE THAN MY BARK,
I JUST WANNA PUT ON A SHOW...
I JUST WANT TO BE NOTICED
I JUST WANT TO BE NOTICED
I JUST WANT TO BE NOTICED
I JUST WANNA PUT ON A SHOW,
FOR YOU. HAHAHAhahaharr.

Charming comes around with Sunset and they see me looking at them. I was ready to strike at them when I hear the bell rang out. I left them alone and head back to my position. Once there, I disconnected from the animatronic.

Night 6

View Online

I woke up in my bed. I smirked, the time was almost abound us. I went to the frig and got a plasma juice and began to drink it. I could sense dreams from the three and Twilight was suffering a nightmare, which I could sense Luna trying to suppress. I smirked, threw away the empty Plasma Juice, and teleported away.

I appeared in the spare parts and service room. I began to continue to build them and it shouldn’t take long. I grinned, grabbed the tool kit, and continue to make them.

I had finished at all, they were all done. I smirked and the Elements of Insanity appear in my hoof. They began to levitate in the air and they fired lightning at the EOI animatronics. They were shaking rapidly and when they finished, they animatronics opened their eyes. They looked at me as I smirked.

“I’m your creator and I plan to have some fun tonight. Charming will put the animatronics in lockdown mode, but he knows nothing of you guys. I say tonight, we will have some fun. I’ll control my human animatronic form since he was make sure my pony animatronic is no threat. But he will be wrong when I have you guys wander around the place. Remember though, no killing, just scaring. And you guys will suit the job well.”

A-Brutalight said with a smirk “Let’s have some fun tonight.”

I nodded and grinned. I then teleported out of the room, leaving the others to power down for tonight.

I appear in my room and pulled out a chip and insert it into the nerve gear along with my pony animatronic system control chip. This other chip was my human animatronic system control chip, giving me the chance to control my human animatronic self. I got back on the bed and began to take a nap.

I woke up to my alarm clock and put on the nerve gear. I began to access my human animatronic and when I was through, I see the time was 12:00 AM. I began to access the phone and it began to ring. I activated the phone recording.

“Hello? Hello, hello? Welcome to Night 6! I never imagined you to make it this far at all. Normally they would get a normal pony, but I guess you are not normal. You know, I had plans of expanding this building. You know, make a whole new attraction. Like the Elements of Insanity and their crew or maybe the animatronic human versions of Canterlot High’s crew. Lyra would love that, I’m certain of that. Uh, about the animatronics. They will get wild now, wanting to get you without hesitation. So, be on guard and don’t wait for a second. Good luck and I hope you survive the night!”

I opened my eyes and grinned. I got up, standing on my two feet. The EOI animatronics reactivate and grinned with me. I walked up to the door, typed the access door, and it opened.

“Enjoy the night. And no killing, knock out only.”

They nodded and I access the radio wave and I could hear it.

“With the animatronics completely offline and the animatronic Danny in chains to prevent him from escape, we can have peace.” Nyx said with a sigh.

Charming agreed “Indeed. Glad this will be easier.”

I access the speakers and grinned. My voice on speakers was different now, making it more evil.

“Charming Thunder and friends, guess again! I had a backup force in case you did this and now, they wander the Funhouse! Welcome to Tartarus tonight!!”

Me and the EOI’s eyes changed to soulless black with white pupils. We began to split off.

Song by the tune of Game Over

Sung by Danny and all animatronics

The nightmare has just begun.

I screeched out, which sounded similar to the FNAF 4 screech.

We are the darkness that
Corrupts you inside
Let the story unwind
Torn away from your mind
When the timer starts ticking
We all know what you are thinking
You can hide all you might
But the nightmare begins tonight

We take our places in
The corner of your brain
All the cameras sustaining
All the images remaining
Controlling your demise
Dead ponies in disguise
Let me take you on a journey
From the torture that infests tonight

WAS IT ME WHO
CAUSED THE BITE
WAS IT ME WHO
BLED THEM DRY
WAS IT ME WHO
TOOK THE PAST AND
REINVENTED ALL
YOUR CRIES
WAS IT ME WHO
SUFFERED MORE
ALL THE BLOOD STAINS
ON THE FLOOR
DOESN'T MATTER ALL
THE SAME CAUSE IT WAS
YOU WHO WAS
TO BLAME
NOW FOLLOW ME
TO YOUR DEFEAT

Charming, Sunset, and Twilight came around the corner and they see me. I grinned at them and I slowly began to walk towards them, making them back up.

Game Over
We couldn't take it anymore
Game Over
How could you kill us more and more
The silence was pure
But the blood
Was always yours
Game Over
Begin the clocks that kill your time
Game Over
Summon the cyanide
No more fears
Inside these tears
You're all that remains
Inside of our
DOMAIN

Charming and his two companions began to run away. They got to the manager door and opened it. They closed it and began to run away. I smirked and began to go the opposite way, heading towards the party room section.

Do you remember the
Corruption long ago
Getting ready for the show
Getting ready to blow
Closing off the cry of phantoms
Darker times in the asylum
Brought you to the brink of
Madness, let the party come alive

Maybe the only reason
We were left alone
Was the calls on the phone
Telling lies right to the bone
Hope was nothing more than
Dreams, nothing left to redeem
Couldn't care about the obstacle
Your soul is all we want tonight

WAS IT ME WHO
KILLED THEM ALL
WAS IT ME WHO
TOOK THE FALL
WAS IT ME WHO
STOOD BEHIND THE PHONE
AND ANSWERED TO THE CALL
TO THE CALL
WAS IT ME WHO
BURNED ALIVE
YOU'LL FIND OUT
IN NIGHT FIVE
DOESN'T MATTER
ANYMORE
IN THE END
WHAT WAS
IT FOR

They got out of the manager’s office and they see me leaning on the wall. I was looking at them and grinned. I pulled out my hook and took off my hand. I put the hook in the place and I place an eye patch on. I began to walk over to them, grinning still with my eye patch down.

They ran past me and tried to the office, only to run into a terrified Nyx. They tried to go into the office but they see the EOI animatronics there, advancing. They went into the back area and went up the stairs to the roof. I met up with the EOI animatronics and they grinned like me.

LET THE BLOOD
BATH BEGIN!!

We made our way to the roof and we see them looking towards a good view of Ponyville. They heard the doors opened and they see us advance slowly to them.

Let the silence break
As the night soon fades
May the chimes of light
Wade through the cracks
And harmony sustains...
The ponies still trapped
Their tired minds
Have snapped
They made you
Believe in peace
But the fools are
Just the same

We just want to
See you in
PAIN!

We were now in front of them, they were at the edge of the roof. Charming and Sunset couldn’t fly and the alicorns were completely scared.

DIE!!!

We were about to screech at them. They closed their eyes and that was when the bell rang off. We heard it in our heads but they didn’t hear it. I pulled out a piece of paper and left in down in front of them. We teleported away, like it was a nightmare in their mind. The Letter said on it…

Dear Charming and friends,
Congrats, you made it past all six nights! Now, today, since it is a new day, I will appear but when I do, is completely random. When I do arrive, you can judge what to do with me. I hope you did enjoy the night and believe me when I say, what you experience at Night 6 was nothing but a nightmare come to life. And to let you know, I was the pony giving you those nightmares. I made a simple illusion spell on you guys to think that there were other animatronics. I’m glad none of you detected it or that would have ruined the night completely. I activated the illusion spell the moment the phone ended, because where is the since of excitement in this place. Anyway, see you around soon…
Signed,
The Puppet Master.

We appeared in the back room and I closed the door. Tomorrow, at 12:00 PM, the play begins and there will be the truth.

Day 7

View Online

I woke up on the bed and smirked. I took off the nerve gear and went to the frig and got a plasma juice. After I drank it, I turned intangible and walk up to the top. When I arrived, I see the paper and grabbed it.

School Play at 12:00 PM

I grinned and went back underneath. Enough time to make the preparations.

I finished making the preparations and I see it was 11:59 AM. I went to my nerve gear and put it on. When I opened my human animatronic’s eyes, I see the clock had just struck 12:00 PM. I grinned and went to the door. I entered the code and went out and closed the door quietly. I looked into the office and see no one inside.

‘Good. No security. Charming fell for the trick. But what is security?’

I walked down the office and see the show being played. No one could see me and I grinned. There was literally NO security but looks like Charming, Sunset, Twilight, and Nyx were on guard, looking around every now and then. I was invisible, a little ability the animatronics had. I began to walk to Cloud’s Cove, see all the animatronics there. I went to them, reactivate them, and they looked at me as I appeared.

“Act like you’re still offline. When the time comes, you may act. Just wait for my signal.” I said on the communication channel.

They nodded and went to shut down mode. I managed to unlock my Pony animatronic without trouble and made no sound. I turned invisible again and see that no one had noticed me. I leaned against the wall, watching the show.

Later…

The school play had ended, with the Sweetie Belle (playing as Charming Thunder) finishing off Diamond Tiara (playing as Queen Luna). When it finished, all the fillies and colts came to the stage and bowed while the audience clapped. Celestia came up to stage when the clapping ended.

That was a wonderful play, my little ponies." Celestia said to the school children. "You have shown something really important in history and now, if only my nephew was here-“

I began to clap. A slow, mockery clap. Everyone turned to the sound but see nothing until I disengage my invisibility. When they all see me, everyone gasped at the human animatronic me. Charming and his three other friends stood in my way.

Charming demanded “How are you active!? How are you here!? I thought you were an illusion!”

I smirked and snapped my fingers. At the same time, the speakers came active and began to play music. All the animatronics came active and walked off Cloud’s Cove. The EOI and Canterlot High animatronics appeared next to the Phantom’s Funhouse animatronics. And to top it all off, the golden twin along with A-Sunset and A-Twivine came up to me.

Song by the tune of Just Gold

Sung by Danny and all animatronics and spirits

TIME FOR THE MAIN ATTRACTION
THE STORY MUST BE TOLD
TIME FOR A CHAIN REACTION
IT NEVER GETS OLD
SOME BOTS GET SATISFACTION
BREAKING THE MOLD
SOME BOTS ARE JUST DISTRACTIONS
SOME BOTS ARE JUST GOLD

I chuckled and appeared on stage and all the fillies and colts ran off stage, screaming. Celestia backs off as I took the stage. When I spoke it was my normal voice, not mechanical. That shocked everyone.

I'm not the bad guy,
I'm just a bit surprising
It's not worth losing sleep
It's not worth analyzing
There was a time, not so long ago at all
I was just like you, can you hear my call?
Now I'm poppin' in over here, over there
I'll be checking in, but you'll never be aware
In the beginning I kept a keen eye
on the state of affairs with the new guy
Now I got a new gig (Let me know if you dig)
Ain't going home so I better go big
Just got to glance at cam 2B
Then you get a little surprise...
IT'S ME
You may say that I'm breaking your mind
In my opinion you're much to kind

Suddenly, I began to faintly glow and the Elements of Insanity were glowing as well.

TIME FOR THE MAIN ATTRACTION
THE STORY MUST BE TOLD
TIME FOR A CHAIN REACTION
IT NEVER GETS OLD
SOME BOTS GET SATISFACTION
BREAKING THE MOLD
SOME BOTS ARE JUST DISTRACTIONS
SOME BOTS ARE JUST GOLD

I began to look towards Charming and I smiled.

You did a good job
Watching those little screens
It warms my servos and circuits
To hear some fresh screams
But don't get me wrong
You were very brave
When faced with friendly singing ponies
You never caved

I snapped my fingers and the phone appeared in my right hand.

I'm finished training, done explaining
No more facts are left remaining

I threw the phone away, which teleported back to the security room.

Now you know the gist of it
You're a perfect fit
I don't wanna hear no more complaining
I'm passing down this golden opportunity
Eternal scrapyard immunity
Take it with pride
And enjoy the ride
You'll forever be part of this community
You may say that it's all in your mind
But in the end I think that you will find

The Elements of Insanity appeared around me as my spectral ghost appeared on stage. This caused everyone to gasp. Suddenly, the inverted rainbow hit all the Phantom’s Funhouse animatronics. The original cast’s Mane 6 ghosts left the animatronic bodies and joined my ghostly self on stage. Purple and Starlight’s ghostly selves left their animatronic selves and joined with me on stage. Applebloom, Chrysalis, and Peter (Who looked like a pony now) left their animatronic bodies and joined us on stage.

YOU ARE THE MAIN ATTRACTION
OUR STORY MUST BE TOLD
YOU ARE A CHAIN REACTION
THAT NEVER GETS OLD
SOME BOTS GET SATISFACTION
BREAKING THE MOLD
SOME BOTS ARE JUST DISTRACTIONS
SOME BOTS ARE JUST GOLD

YOU ARE THE MAIN ATTRACTION
YOUR STORY MUST BE TOLD
YOU ARE A CHAIN REACTION
THAT NEVER GETS OLD
SOME BOTS GET SATISFACTION
BREAKING THE MOLD
SOME BOTS ARE JUST DISTRACTIONS
SOME BOTS ARE JUST GOLD

When the song ended, we returned to our bodies and I bowed to the crowd. For some odd reason, they began to clap. When the clapping ended, I disconnected to the animatronic from my nerve gear. I teleported up to the stage and gave a bow to the audience.

“Thank you! Thank you all! I’m here to inform you that my ‘death’ has been nothing but a lie. In truth, I’ve been messing around with Charming at the night watch. Playing the role as the Puppet Master, Phone Guy, AND my pony/human animatronic! Rainbow was aware of my existence after Night 3, but she pledge not to tell my secret.”

Charming said in shock “Wait. You mean this whole time, everything that transpired at my night shifts, was you!?”

“Yes. This was supposed to be a near death experience prank. If I wanted to, I would have killed you on more than several different chances. Instead, I didn’t and I loved the scare ponies with my new friends. Now you know my secret, why these animatronics are ALIVE.”

My animatronic friends went to their counterparts and began to shake hooves.

“But Nightmarejack-“ Charming replied

“Was me in disguised. You know I can access nightmares. I thought it was oblivious. But I plan to expand my place by having more animatronics. I’ll create three places for Phantom’s Funhouse. This main building, the planned building to the left side connected to the main building for the Canterlot High animatronics. And there will be a Siren’s Cove. And on the right side of the building, I’ll have the EOI animatronics stationed. Rainbine and Derpigun will be at Cybernetic’s Enclave. I hope you will like future plans and please, respect the animatronics.”

Everyone began to leave since it was all over and me and the others stayed to talk.
