The group stood outside the doors of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. The sun was beginning to set and the snow was starting to lightly fall. For some reason the whole group had a deep ominous feeling just by looking up at the neon lights and the front door that displayed the hours as well as a poster of special offers. Pinkie was the first to break the silence. "I haven't been here in years. I wonder if Chica and Foxy still remember me."
Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes. "Pinkie they're robots with big memories and your hair is a dead giveaway. Looks like despite closing hours some of the lights are still on."
Rarity walked up to the doors. "Great, now lets go inside and find Sunset."
But just as Rarity was about to reach for the door she felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Twilight who had a look of disappointment. "No we're going to the coffee shop across the street. We all still need to talk about abandoning a friend in need and what you'll say to her."
"You mean we're not going in there yet?" asked Applejack.
"Not yet but they are." Said Twilight gesturing to Apple Bloom and her friends.
"What? Why us?" Asked Apple Bloom.
"Your mess! You fix it! Now get in there!" Snapped Twilight.
Scootaloo put one hand on the door. "But the doors might be locked-"
Suddenly Scootaloo fell backward, pulling the door open. It looks like it wasn't locked. Despite some lights being on the inside looked barely visible. Twilight said nothing but pointed inside. The girls went inside only for the doors to slowly close shut. They went deeper into the restaurant. No sooner had the older teens left for the coffee shop, a mysterious figure walked up to the door and locked it without anyone noticing, the figure grinned. "Party time..."
============================
The girls strolled through the main dining area, taking a moment to see the three characters on stage looking motionless. "So have you two been here before?" Asked Apple Bloom.
"Only once during my fifth birthday. That was when I first met Scootaloo." Explained Sweetie Belle.
"Geez and Pirate's cove is still shut down." Said Scootaloo as she looked towards a smaller stage in the dining area with the sign saying out of order.
Suddenly the remaining lights turned off. Leaving the place dark with only the outside casting a glow in the place. "Great now this place is closed. How do we find a lost girl here?" Said Scootaloo.
"Look I see a light down that hall." Said Sweetie who pointed to a hallway, where there was a light at the end.
The three girls rushed down only to see an empty office with a security monitor, a desk fan, and a phone. They walked inside only to hear a click from the phone. "You have one new message."
"Hello? I wanted to leave you a message tonight because it's a company safety policy that I remind you of the risk to you as a night guard. Ever since rebranding, we know they no longer attack you but they might still see an intruder as a metal endo skeleton without it's costume on."
The girls looked at the phone in confusion and a little worry. "Now I know some people like the idea of dressing up as animals, but trust me you don't want yourself or anyone to be stuffed into a suit with wires, crossbeams, and animatronic devices in there. But we might fix that issue one day, unlike that burger joint up the road that will probably never fix their ice cream machine, despite promising. Anyway see you next year. Oh and uh Merry Christmas."
The three girls looked at each other in alarm. Sweetie Belle was the first to break out of her worried trance. "I thought it was all a rumor to shut this place down!"
"That's what I thought too. Maybe we won't be seen as skeletons, I mean look at us we're smaller than them." Said Apple Bloom trying to calm her friends down.
Just then they heard heavy footsteps and there, standing at the doorway to their right was Freddy Fazbear. "Hi kids, it’s your friend Freddy and remember it's not nice to say bad things behind people's back."
The three knew they couldn't reach the door control without getting grabbed. They backed away slowly to the other door leading to the left hallway only to bump into another animatronic. "Hi kids it's your bunny buddy Bonnie here. Let’s try to be friendly and not do mean things to others."
The three girls felt cornered. Scootaloo still felt they could get away. "It's three against two right? At least the duck isn't here. heh."
"Chica is a chicken you bully." said Bonnie.
The girls paled, they thought they were speaking prerecorded show lines. "The heck did you just-"
SKREEEEEEEEE
"AH Someone help!" Screamed Scootaloo as Bonnie the bunny grabbed her and held her tight against his body. Freddy leaned in and did the same thing to Sweetie Belle. "Apple Bloom Help!"
Apple Bloom looked between the two robots that had her friends but instead of trying to help she duct past Bonnie and into the halls. "Sorry girls I'll come back for you!"
"WHAT?! SOME FRIEND YOU ARE!" Screamed Scootaloo.
Apple Bloom ran until she bumped into another. This one being a chicken who looked down at her in anger. "Did I hear someone calling me a duck? Come here!"
Chica attempted to grab her but missed as Apple Bloom manage to dodge her and continued running down the hall and hid behind a curtain. "What the hay is going on? Did those things get Sunset?"
She then noticed a treasure chest next to her and looked behind her at what looked like a deactivated Fox. "Guess you're not active since you're out of order. Maybe I can slip out through the back door."
"ARGH ME MATEYS!"
Apple Bloom stood straight up stiff as a board and turned to the fox who was now staring at her. "What?"
"Rule breakers be walking the plank!" Said Foxy as he raised his hook hand ready to hit the girl but Apple Bloom jumped out of pirates cove.
She ran through the dining as she heard the footsteps of the other robots as well as the sounds of struggling from her friends. "Have to hide! Here!"
She then raced through a door labeled 'employees only backstage and storage' and slammed it shut. He put her ear to the door hearing the sounds of the robots. "Foxy have you seen the lost skeleton anywhere?"
"I have Chica, but it looked like she didn't want to go treasure hunting for her suit with me."
"Never mine her for now you two. We still have two more skeletons right here to deal with. Let's take them to parts and service and fix them." Said the voice of Freddy. The muffling of Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo could be heard. Apple Bloom knew she had to leave and get help. She soon saw the back door after a bit of searching but then she found out something she didn't think about. "It's locked! Where's the key?"
"Hello..." Said a robotic yet raspy voice.
Apple Bloom turned and saw, not a animatronic, but what looked like a women in a rabbit costume. It was mostly white with a few mismatched patches. The mask had red eyes and an evil looking grin. She was holding a knife in her hand. Apple Bloom just stared at the white rabbit lady as she asked her a question.
"Are you having fun yet?"
