//------------------------------// // 20% Freakier // Story: Guards in Training (FNaF/MLP Cross) // by KaylaCautio //------------------------------// Guard's Log 11:55 pm Entry 122 New night, new trainee. I'm a little nervous this time, still worried that Twilight spilled the beans about what she had figured out last night. I just have to hope for the best. I think that phantom-bear is trying to get at me, which isn't always common with new guards around. Maybe he's just getting bored. If anything happens tonight... well, the entries might stop, I'll say that much. Something in the atmosphere felt wrong tonight. But I tried my best to ignore it as I waited for the next trainee to show up. I ended up closing my eyes and almost drifting off until someone grabbed my shoulder. Having developed the usual bit of paranoia from staying with this job so long, I jumped at the touch, and looked up to see a girl with rainbow-colored hair looking down at me. "If I had known we were allowed to sleep on the job, I would've signed up long ago." She joked. I gave a weak chuckle and pulled up a chair for her next to mine. "Thanks. I'm Rainbow Dash. Let's just say you're lucky to have someone like me by your side." "My, egotistic and confident on your first day. Actually, not even your first day, just a training session. Reminds me of another guard here... Anyway, I'm Kayla Cautio. Let's see if you can really live up to your supposed abilities." I smirked and handed her the cameras, then went to stand by the doors. She turned to me with a bit of surprise. "What, you're just gonna throw me in without explanation?" "My main job is to keep you trainees alive. If you really think you can pull this off so easily, then you should have no problem with being launched in without me having to tell you anything. Besides, I'm sure your friends have given you the basics." She looked between me and the cameras, then pulled on an arrogant smile. "Pfft, yeah, I can totally do this. I know the basics, why wouldn't this be easy?" She opened up the laptop then, and after a few seconds gave a little scream which easily caught my attention. "What's wrong?" I asked as I rushed over to the desk, looking over her shoulder. "Is your computer glitched or something, because something popped up on the screen before you got over here. Said something like... 'It's me...'" That was a phrase I knew all too well. So he was coming. I just took a deep breath and started back over towards the door. "Probably some sort of glitch, like you said. Just ignore it, I'm sure it won't happen again." She nodded and started looking again, calming down at a decent pace. Now I had reason to be paranoid, though. Hopefully he wouldn't show up directly, I wouldn't want Rainbow Dash to have to deal with that. That was the last thing I needed, honestly. The phantom did not listen to reason, so he was going to be unpredictable and I couldn't tell him that he needed to take it easy. But, I tried to take my own advice and try to ignore it, and go on with the night as usual. For a while, not much was going on. But around 4 am Rainbow seemed to forget about checking on Pirate's Cove, and soon enough I heard Foxy's metal feet pounding against the tile in the hall as he ran towards us. I went to hit the button but I wasn't fast enough, allowing Foxy to barge in. He went straight for Rainbow, who screamed and jumped out the chair. I quickly got in front of him and held my knife out, pointed at the animatronic pirate. "Down, boy. Back off. Get back to your Cove." Foxy seemed suddenly nervous seeing the weapon. "S-Sorry, lass, I just... I was doing what I'm used to. And ye know I'd never hurt ye.." "But you can't hurt my trainees, either. So get back to your Cove and try to stay there." Foxy was going to protest, but seeing the look in my eyes he backed off and started off. I put my knife back on my belt and turned to Rainbow Dash, who looked at me in bewilderment. "How... how did you do that?! You just.. spoke to him like it didn't matter! He was rushing towards me and then you stepped in and... how?!" I just gave her a little smile and sat down. "That's my secret... you take the doors now. We have two hours and I don't want another one of them coming in." She stood there stunned for a minute, then went over and stood by the door. I'm glad to say there were no further incidents, aside from the same headaches from last night. We were out of there soon enough, though I started to feel bad for threatening Foxy like that. I shook it off as I walked home, though what I couldn't shake was this; could that phantom try coming after me at some point during the week while I was training these girls? Would they have any idea of what to do? Well, I'd have to hope it didn't come to that.
