Five Nights at AJ's

by Danny Eclipse


Night 2

3:30 PM

I entered AJ’s Barn. I was called to talk with the Flim-Flam brothers, my mangers. I came into his office and I see just Flim there.

“You wanted me, sir?” I asked.

Flim looked at me and replied “Indeed Mr. Eclipse. We noticed the left hoof of Twilight on the table, what happened?”

“Twilight tried to get the jump on me but I closed the door on her, resulting her to lose her left hoof.”

Flim nodded and replied “I see. Well, I’m just glad the Animatronics can self-repair themselves. Well, most normally do get jumped by Twilight on the first night. But you do know that she will want revenge on you, right?”

“I know and I already got a way to counter her.”

Flim warned me “Alright, but to inform you, she will not be alone.”

I nodded and left.


11:50 PM

I see the managers leaving and I locked the door. I went into the Dining Room and looked at the Animatronics before looking at Twilight. I smiled and went to the backroom and turned off the power. I walked back to my office and when I got inside, I see the Clock had hit 12:00 AM. I smiled, ready to counter what was going to come now. I heard the Phone Ring and I let the message play.

Phone Guy said “Uhh, Hello? Hello? Uh, well, if you're hearing this and you made it to day two, uh, congrats!”

“I don’t know if I should take that as a comment.”

Phone Guy explained “I-I won't talk quite as long this time since Applejack and her friends tend to become more active as the week progresses.”

“Thanks for the heads up.”

Phone Guys said “Uhh, it might be a good idea to peek at those cameras while I talk just to make sure everyone's in their proper place. You know…” I nodded and looked on the Cameras. Sure enough, Twilight was missing along with Rarity. I stopped and lowered it. “Uh... Interestingly enough, Applejack herself doesn't come off stage very often. I heard she becomes a lot more active in the dark though, so, hey, I guess that's one more reason not to run out of power, right?”

“Alright, that could be a problem.”

Phone Guy said “I-I also want to emphasize the importance of using your door lights. There are blind spots in your camera views, and those blind spots happen to be right outside of your doors. So if-if you can’t find something, or someone, on your cameras, be sure to check the door lights.”

“Thank you for that, I’ll keep it for consideration.” I thank the Phone Guy.

Phone Guy added “Uh, you might only have a few seconds to react... Uh, not that you would be in any danger, of course. I'm not implying that.”

“Oh no, you are just trying to reassure me. Well, it’s failing miserably.” I comment with a chuckle.

Phone Guy said “Also, check on the curtain in Cloud’s Cove from time to time. The character in there seems unique in that she becomes more active if the cameras remain off for long periods of time. I guess she doesn't like being watched. I don't know.”

“Or maybe it is because she LOVES to be watched.”

Phone Guy stated “Anyway, I'm sure you have everything under control! Uh, talk to you soon.”

“Bye man.” I placed a holographic devise on the ground in the middle of the room. I had a remote and I check the camera for the Left Hallway and sure enough, I see Twilight coming down it with an angry expression. I lowered the camera. ‘Come and get it.’ I pushed the remote’s button, activating the hologram and opening the door. Sure enough, I see Twilight appear in front of the door but halted and her mouth gaped open in complete shock. The hologram was Big Mac, any mare would die for him.

Twilight asked, confused “W-What is the meaning of this?”

After a few seconds, the hologram Big Mac’s teeth turned to fangs and his eyes turned blood red. He growled at Twilight, who screeched in fear and terror and ran for it. The hologram stopped and I fell to the ground, laughing my flank off. I got up and wiped away a tear.


5:30 AM

I was checking the cameras. Applejack was on the Stage again, playing with her Kindle once again. Fluttershy was doing something in the Kitchen. Cloud’s Cove curtains weren’t touched. Twilight was in the Backstage, curled up and look like she was shivering her mechanical flank off. I couldn’t help but chuckle at what I did. However, I realized that there was no sign of Rarity. I lowered the camera and turned to left hall light on, nothing there. I turned the right hallway light on and I see Rarity there. She began to walk in but I surprised her by holding my ground. I pulled out a present and gave it to her. She looked at it, confused.

Rarity asked “Is this for me?”

I nodded and she went to pick it up. She opened it and gasped as it was revealed to be a nicely shaped diamond. She took it and hugged it.

“You like my gift, Rarity?” I asked her.

“Oh darling, it is wonderful. I love all sorts of diamonds, emeralds, rubies, etc. But what I love most is making clothes and everything.” Rarity said.

“I hope this could be a symbol of our friendship.”

Rarity stated “Oh, defiantly. I’ll stop by from time to time to see you again.”

“Thank you Rarity, I appreciate it if you could.”

Rarity took the diamond and I smiled.


6:00 AM

I heard the bell to go off and I left the office. I turned the power back on, said my goodbye to Rarity, and left to the entrance. When I arrived, I see someone waiting for me. His name was Engineer; he was the mechanic for the Animatronics and everything.

“Hey Engineer, how is everything?”

Engineer replied “Morning Danny, I see you survived another night. And as for your question, everything is just fine. I was called here because I got word that Flim and Flam are going to close this place soon. I’m going to shut things down soon.”

“Really? I’ll have to talk to our managers later…”

Engineer bid me goodbye and I left.
