Guards in Training (FNaF/MLP Cross)

by KaylaCautio

Horror Party

I'll admit it, I was stressed. I knew he was already here. I knew he was plotting to do something to me. But I didn't know what. I couldn't get this off my mind. I didn't even really look at the cameras, so I was surprised when I heard the next trainee's voice. "Hey, what you doing? Are you thinking? What are thinking about? It seems serious." I looked up to see a girl dressed in pink and some blue, with pink curly hair standing next to me.

"Oh, sorry. You must be tonight's trainee. Here, have a seat." I pulled up a chair for her. I didn't realize at the time but my voice likely made me sound tired. I didn't get a whole lot of sleep before I came here for tonight, I was so worried about him. "So, let me guess... Pinkie Pie?"

"Yessiree! I'm excited for tonight! My friends have told me so much, so I pretty much know how everything works. Oh, and you don't have to tell me your name, they told me that too, Kayla Cautio!" She giggled and nearly turned upside down in her chair, but seemed to catch herself from doing that. First impressions, I guess. I just opened up the cameras and pointed towards the doors. She seemed to understand instantly and got up and walked over to one. I started skimming through cameras, though I honestly wasn't paying much attention. Pinkie seemed to get the gist, though. She would check the blind spots occasionally, and close doors when necessary. Eventually she turned to me, her energy having turned down a tad. "Hey... you alright? You seem kind of out of it, not like how my friends had described you."

I looked up to her and shook my head a bit to get my thoughts out of my head. "Uh, yeah. I just... didn't get a lot of sleep before my shift, is all.."

"Oh.. Okay then. If you say so." She turned her attention back to the doors, and I turned my back to the cameras. Once I hit the West Hall Corner, I had to do a double take.. the poster. It changed. Shoot. The cameras started to glitch, showing 'It's me' just like Rainbow Dash had seen last night. I felt an overwhelming headache come over me, and did not hesitate to grip my head to show it. Pinkie turned to me and soon came over, putting a hand on my shoulder. "Hey, what's wrong?"

As soon as she approached I shut the laptop and put my head down on the desk, resting on my arms, especially trying to cover my eyes. "Pinkie Pie... get back... I don't want... him to hurt you..." Naturally she had no clue what I was talking about. But she did back up a bit, just in time too. I started to laugh like a maniac and eventually lifted my head up. I knew this wasn't really me doing these things, especially since my vision was becoming blurry. I turned my head towards Pinkie, who seemed pretty scared by what she saw. The last thing I remember before my vision went black was standing up and saying "̢It'́s me͏!̷"

Pinkie Pie's POV
Hello! Kayla didn't remember anything after getting possessed so she asked me to help her with what happened. I convinced her to just let me write this part! Anyway... when Kayla turned her head to me, I got scared because her eyes had lost that cute little blue in them. They were completely black apart from a tiny white pupil. Then she stood up and shouted "It̀'̴s ́m̨e͞!̡" After that she laughed like crazy and just looked at me. But she did speak up eventually, and that's when I noticed how distorted her voice sounded. "̵S̛o ̧y͜ou'r͢e͘ o͝ne of Ka͏yla's little trai̴n͝e͞e͏s."̧ She chuckled a bit. "̛Ỳeah, ̕sh̕e'l͢l ͘n͟e̢éd̷ a̡ll ͡th́e h̴e͟l̢p҉ ̧sh͡ę ̨can g̕e̛t ͠t̀o҉ ͞d̕e̶al with mè.̸.͟. sh̶e'͢s sò opt̢im̸isti̢c,̴ t͜hin͘ks ͞s͜he ćan ͡g͡e͝t̷ rid ̶of m̶e so͝m̀ed̡ay̵ ìf ̵she'͞s p͘a͝t̀i̴e̶n̷t.̴" She chuckled again, she must've really thought all of this was funny. "Sh͢e ͘j͡ùs͠t ̢c͟a̶n'̕t̨ ͘tęll ͘t̨hat ͝Í'l͏l ͠ne͏ve̷r w͜a̡n̕t̕ ̨t́ǫ ̕st͜o͏p ҉play̨ing wi͘th ḩęr. The m̸ǫre ͠s̕he ̴re͝sìs͟t̡s ̷me,̧ ͜the͢ ͢more I ̵want ͟her a̴s my͞ l̶i͠ttle puppe̛t̨.̨"

Then I figured I had to speak up. "Hold on a second! Just who are you? You must not be Kayla, since you're talking about her like she's not here."

She just chuckled again. "That̵'̵s͡ becáuse sh͝e's n͡ot ͏h̸ere.̕ ̷N͞o͏t̨ ̢wh͏ile I̢ ́ám.

So this wasn't Kayla at all... it was this Golden Freddy character possessing Kayla... I think I'll call her Golden Kayla! So, after her little monologue, I decided I had to stand up to Golden Kayla. And I did. "Wait a minute! Using a living person as a puppet just because your brother has a crush on her? That seems a little extreme, don't you think? And honestly, coming from me, that's saying something." Yeah, I can't lie about that. I can get pretty extreme at times, but I wouldn't start trying to control anyone if my sisters developed crushes on guys or anything.

But she seemed pretty upset either way. "̶He ch͢a̸n̢géd e̕v͜e̢ryt͝h͠i̵n͡g̷ ̛ju͘s̀t ̕for̸ ̷o͡ńe per͟s͏o͝n̕!

"Or, you could just... I don't know... support your brother? Let him deal with his emotions on his own? Wait, animatronics have emotions? Well, maybe creepy, possessed ones do. That could be understandable. But what I'm trying to say is, just because your brother is having a change of heart, that doesn't mean you have to go crazy and try to torture and kill the girl he likes. That's just insane."

She didn't seem happy at all. "L̀i͏k͘e ̶you̵ ͢woul͘d ̨know͠ an̡yt̴h͘in̡g̡ ̛a̵bòut̵ įt̸.̷ ̧Y͠ou ̧ar̡e ͠j͏u͏s͞t̢ a̡ ͘t͠ȩe̕n͠ager,̡ y̷ou ha͠v͞e̡ n͡o҉ ̸e͜xp̶er̢ie͟n̷c͠e̛ ̶wi͜th͝ wh͞at̵ w̸e ͟ha̴v̛e be͝en̕ t̢hro͡ugh!

Jeez, this guy was stubborn. "No, I don't know what you've been through. I have no clue what it feels like. But still, whatever it was, it's no reason to believe you need to kill and torture people just because someone hurt you. Every sane person knows that, silly."

"T̵hen̢ ma͝ybe͜..̡. ͜I͠'m͡ ́n͢ot s̶ane̸..̡.̴ ̸w͏h̡e̢n I̴ ͟ĺos͝t̨ ́my̨ lif͡e͞.̴..͠ I l͡ost m̷y͏ m̨or̴al̸i̢t̨y.̶.̀.͏ wh͜at̵e̡v̀e͡r͡.̨ It͟ ҉may̧ h͘ave̸ been ͘a̴ po͞or ju͝d͟ge̕m͞én͞t̸ ̶to͘ ͜t̵ry͜ t̛h̕i̡s w͞h͠i͘le͠ she҉ ͠has a ̨tra͞i͜ne̕e̵ ́here.͞ ͞I'll̀ ̸ha̛ve̡ more ̴ch̀a͠n͏ce̵s.҉.̛. b̛u̧t ̸p̀e̸r̛h͏aps w̨e̛'ll ̕meet̢ ag̴ai͏n͠,͠ M̡ś. ̵Pie̵.͘ We'll ̢h̸a͞ve̡ ţo ́wa̸i̕t͠ ͞ąn͡d ̢s͝e͞e." Well, at least she was seeing some reason finally. But after she said that, she sat back down in the chair and put a hand to her head, with her eyes closed. Luckily, it only took a minute until she opened her eyes again, and they were back to normal! She seemed kind of out of it, though. When she looked back up at me she seemed unfamiliar with what was going on..

"Pinkie...?"

Kayla's POV

"Pinkie...?" The first word out of my mouth after I got my vision back. It was still blurry though, so all I really saw was a pink blob in front of me. I had no idea what had happened, and hopefully Pinkie's recap makes it understandable. "Pinkie... are you hurt?"

"Nope, he didn't lay a finger on me. He just kept ranting about how he didn't like his brother having a crush on you and eventually decided that possessing you while there's a trainee here wasn't the best plan, so he left."

I was honestly surprised by this. "He... left? Just like that? Without any sort of problem?"

"Yeah! But don't ask me what got into him. I'm not some ghost mind-reader." She laughed a little as she said this, even though it made me nervous.

"Wait... how did you know he was a ghost?"

"Well, what else could have possessed you?"

I gave a weak chuckle as I realized she was right. "True. But... you won't tell anyone, will you?"

"Of course I won't, silly! Why would I need to? Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye~" She did a few motions as she made what I later found out was called the 'Pinkie Promise,' and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Well, good. Cause I don't want anyone else knowing what Goldie does to me... I mean, I've told other guards, but they've almost never believed me."

"No problem! I mean, at least it's not like this secret is so huge that I won't be able to contain it and I just have to tell somebody even though I know telling them might cause you some trouble or even get this place shut down."

"Uh... yeah. Thanks, Pinkie." An oddly specific description but I couldn't pay attention to that now. Our shift ended pretty quickly after the incident, so I thanked Pinkie for the help and then followed her to the exit. But before I went out I turned to the animatronics.

"Guys... Goldie paid us a little visit tonight... I don't know if any of you saw, but I know you couldn't really do anything. But, if he comes nearby again.... don't be afraid to warn me before he gets to me." Then I went home.
