Hello and welcome to my story, Um, my name is Anthony if you already knew that from the description. I'm not sure how I should start this story so how about we, or I just see what comes natural to me and hope you like it that way, Ok? So here we go.
So here I was just getting ready for another day at work. I was wearing what looked like a blue uniform that was tucked in my black pants, a blue cap, a golden badge which indicates that I'm a night shift guard, and the casual black shoes. When I saw the building, I took a big breath before I went in. I opened the door and went into the Show Stage to greet my friends.
"Hey guys what up?" I asked. The animatronics noticed me and came down the stage to greet me, or more specifically, the chicken (or duck) to give me a bone-crushing hug.
"ANTHONY!! I missed you so MUCH!!" The chicken said as the bunny and the bear started snickering in amusement.
"Chi-ca...can't...breath." Chica widened her eyes and let go of me with a faint blush on her cheeks. I smiled at her antics just like the other two guys with her. "Chica...you don't have to hug every time you see me..." I gave her a playful punch, but because of the metal I wiggled my hand a bit. "...and I see you and everyone else everyday."
I turned towards the bunny and the bear, in which I gave a handshake to.
"Hey Freddy, hey Bonnie." Bonnie replied back with a "hey" back as Freddy shook my hand.
"Has Chica given you any trouble lately?" I whispered to Freddy as Chica gave a scowl.
"I HEARD THAT!" She shouted as me and Freddy chuckled because we teased her. Before I was to ask Freddy a question, I realized that I forgot to greet the other animatronics. I told them that I was going to see the rest of the group and Freddy nodded and went back on the stage. The Prize Corner was the nearest, but I decided to meet... her last, so I went to the Kid's Cove. When I went in the room, all I saw was a table full of party hats and a messed up animatronic.
"Sup Mangle, did the kids do that to you?" I already knew the answer but I asked anyway.
"What do you think?" She seemed a little annoyed when she asked that, but who can blame her? I share her pain, having to put herself back together just to have the kids tear her apart again. It can be stressful sometimes.
"I'm guessing that is a yes?" She rolled her eyes, but then she smiled.
"Just put me back together like you usually do Anth." Yeah, she has a nickname for me, go figure. I was a little annoyed at first but then I gotten used to it once you hear her use it every one hundred times. I put her back together as she began to stand up.
"Hey I've been meaning to ask you, have you seen Foxy anywhere?" As she asked that she had a tad bit a redness in her cheeks. I knew she had a thing for Foxy, but I just don't get why. I could never understand her.
"Uh...probably in the Parts & Service area with the rest of the old guys, I was going there anyway, you wanna tag along?" She shrugged and said yes. We arrived and what we saw where rusty animatronics from the previous restaurant, or at least that's what the "Phone Guy" said before.
"Hey guys how's it going?" I asked the group, in which the Old Bonnie and Chica waved. Old Freddy walked up to me and gave a handshake.
"It's nice to see you to Mr. Guard." I don't understand why he calls he "Mr. Guard", I've been in this place for who knows how long, and yet he still call me the same name since I got here.
"*sigh* My name is Anthony, you don't have to call me Mr. Guard anymore."
"Whatever you say Mr. Guard." I facepalmed at the fact that he would say that. And the funny thing about it was that he says it all the time, almost to point where it's going to be a more popular slogan than McDonalds. Someone seemed to tap my shoulder, which was the Old Bonnie, he showed me his almost falling apart face, I took the hint and went to the Office to get my tool box. Thank God I was a mechanic or else I wouldn't be jogging all the way to the Office. Do you know how long it takes just to get to the Office and back to the Old Bonnie? Anyway, I finally made it to Bonnie to fix his face.
"What wrong with it this time?" I ask this question in particular because it happens often, well it's not always his face that have to be repaired, but other parts as well, mostly the arms. Back on topic, Chica pointed to the screws that were loose, so I grabbed my screwdriver and twisted the bolts in.
"Bonnie, do you know what could've cause this to happen to you?" I really was concerned for the animatronics, for one thing I was a huge fan of the game, and two...once you get to know them, they really start to grow on you, I don't what I would do if one of these guys were scrapped or destroyed. Bonnie shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't know.
'Must've been one of the kids, can't the parents at take any responsibility?' I thought to myself. After I was done screwing the bolts in I saw Mangle talking to Foxy about...something that I probably don't want to know. I rolled my eyes and went to the visit my favorite character in the whole game in the Game Area.
"Oh Balloon Boy...where are you?" I whispered. The Game Area was pretty dark so I took out my flashlight, the only problem was it wasn't turning on. Curious, I tried shaking it to make it work and even bang it on the table, but it got me nowhere. I checked inside the flashlight and to my surprise, there was no batteries in it.
"Hello" That is all I heard from behind me. I widened my eyes and slowly turned around saw my favorite character.
"BALLOON BOY!!" I squeezed him with all of my affection, call me crazy but Ballon Boy is the most adorable kid EVER!!!! Everytime I gave him a hug he would always make a squee sound, I'm not sure what it was but it just made him more cute. After I put him down I saw what he had on his left hand.
"Hey, you found my batteries, Thanks!" I went to get them out of his hand but the batteries didn't seem to slip out of his hand.
"*grunt* Quite the grip you have *grunt* there." Balloon Boy has some weird fascination with batteries, not quite sure why, but I won't argue about it. As I kept trying to get the batteries out of his hand, there was but one thing I failed to notice, Ballon Boy had the ability to let go. As my luck would have it that's what he did and had me flying a few feet. Ballon Boy laughed at my misfortune in which I just gave him an annoyed look. Eventually he stopped laughing and help me up.
"I'm going to my office for lunch, you wanna come with?" Balloon Boy wanted to say yes, but he showed me his hand moving up and down with a frown on his face. It took me a few seconds just to get the hint. I facepalmed for being slow.
"Duh...what's a balloon boy without balloons?" I asked rhetorically. I grabbed one balloon, it was yellow with a red stripe on it. I pumped it up and put it in his hand.
"There you go little guy. One balloon for you." He was very happy at the statement. Now with that out of the way we finally made to the office for lunch time. All I needed to do was announce it to the others, I just needed a little help.
"Hey Balloon Boy, think you can help me out with the speaker?" He nodded and put the plugs in the necessary outlets. He gave me the thumbs up as I turned on the speaker and spoke into the microphone.
"ATTENTION ALL ANIMATRONICS! MEET ME IN THE PRIZE CORNER FOR LUNCH!" As I said that, I saw the camera lights flickering. Every time you see the lights turn on and off, You see the old models moving one step to the next room. I never see them moving in action. Me and Ballon Boy went to the Prize Corner and sat on a table, waiting for everyone else to arrive.
"Anthony me boy! Where is the pizza?" A familiar voice rang in my ears as I saw Foxy, Mangle, and the rest of the gang sitting on a chair.
"Foxy! It's nice to see you again!" I gave him a handshake just like everyone else and gestured him to sit down with everyone. Balloon Boy poked me in the shoulder to show me that the older models were coming to sit down. As usual, lights were flickering as they sat on the chairs as soon as the lights went back on. Once again I never saw them move with their bodies, the lights did that for them. As I was eating pizza with the animatronics, I saw the big blue box right next to the music box. I stopped the music box and knocked on the blue box.
"Um...madam...it's me Anthony." I cleared my throat a bit since I was nervous when seeing...her. I'm mean her appearance just...weirds me out a bit I don't know. The box finally opened and the girl finally came out. I stepped back due to how tall she was, as well as being nervous. I used up all the courage I could muster and spoke to her.
"Hey Mary...still looking...frightening as ever, no offense..." She gave a small nod as if she said "none taken". "...Uh...me and the gang are having some lunch...you want a slice of pizza?" She looked at me for a long period of time, which made me scared to no end, but she gave the go ahead. I grabbed a plate and and a slice of pizza (which I thanked Chica for) and gave it to her.
"Here you go Mary, nice and fresh." Her original name was "The Marionette" but I call her Mary just to shorten it to make it easier, apparently she like the nickname, so I went with it. We both stood in silence until I broke it.
"Do you want to join us at the table? Golden really wants to see yo-" She put her hand on my mouth to silence me as she decended down in the box with the pizza in her hand. "Oh...Um...Ok." I scratched my head trying to figure out what just happened. I just forgot about it and slowly closed the box and wind up the music box. I took a chair and sat on it with my feet up on the desk, the shelf full of plushies at the top of my head. Looking at the sight in front of me makes me wonder to myself.
You guys are probably wondering about how did all of this come to be in just a blink of an eye, or how the animatronics are able to walk and talk. Well, all the questions you readers have shall be answered. (or at least most of the questions). Until the next time, I shall see you guys in the next chapter.
