Five Nights at AJ's

by Danny Eclipse


Night 4

5:30 PM

I walked into AJ’s Barn. I had a lot of Pirate things with me and I went to the office. When I arrived, I began to put some stuff inside. I put down some beach chairs, a Pirate flag at the back. I nodded in approval and went into the Dining Room, where I see one of my friends coming over to me. His name was Peter and he was looking a bit angry.

Peter said in anger “Um, I don’t know where to start with you. I mean, who do you know who you are talking to? Do you have any idea, basically? Kind of a big deal. Grass grows, birds fly, sun shines, that is where you are from. From where I was, you would be dead!”

“Now I have seen everything from you.”

“What the hell is your problem!? I mean, you asking to take the animatronics when this place closes down! They killed many of the other night guards in the past, why are you still here? You should leave now while you could.” Peter shouted.

“Just…leave Peter. I know what I’m doing; it’s YOU who doesn’t understand.”

I began to walk away, leaving a steaming Peter. Little did I know something terrible was about to happen to Peter.


12:00 AM

I walked back into my office. I sat down on my chair and heard the phone ringing.

“I wonder what he has to say now. All of his encouragement means nothing now.”

The Phone clicked and began the message.

Phone Guy said, nervously “Hello, hello? Hey! Hey, wow, day 4. I knew you could do it.”

“You sound nervous.”

Phone Guy replied “Uh, hey, listen, I may not be around to send you a message tomorrow.” I began to hear banging in the background in the message. “It's-It's been a bad night here for me. Um, I-I'm kinda glad that I recorded my messages for you,” I hear him clearing his throat. “uh, when I did.”

“Well, even though your messages were…not helpful.”

Phone Guy requested “Uh, hey, do me a favor.” Bang bang “Maybe sometime, uh, you could check inside those suits in the back room?” Bang bang “I'm gonna to try to hold out until someone checks. Maybe it won’t be so bad.” Bang bang “Uh, I-I-I-I always wondered what was in all those empty heads back there.”

“Well, you found out, didn’t you?”

That was when I heard some music being played in the background.

Phone Guy said “You know...”I began to hear some moaning in the background “Oh, no-“ I hear an animatronic roar followed by static then a click.

“RIP Phone Guy. Hope he got a proper burial.” I activated the Camera and see only Applejack there, looking at something. I which to the Dining Room and see no one there. I checked the bathroom, nothing at all. Next was the backstage and see no one. I checked Cloud’s Cove and see the curtains wide open with the sign saying “IT'S ME”. I smirked and lowered the pad and went to get rid of the chair. I moved one of the beach chairs and lay on it. I grabbed one of the sodas that I bought not that long ago. I put the others on the desk. I see Rainbow stopping in front of my left door and went to screech but stopped when she sees the office surroundings. “Hey Rainbow, want some drinks.”

I pointed to the sodas and Rainbow looks at that.

Rainbow said “Soda Cans.”

Rainbow looked at me and her eye patch lowered to cover her eye as she laughed a pirate-like laughter. She came inside, grabs one of the sodas, laid down on a beach chair, and we began to laugh as we drank our sodas.


3:00 AM

Me and Rainbow were watching Pirates of the Caribbean The Curse of the Black Pearl. We were enjoying the movie. That was when we heard some mechanical hoof steps and we looked and see Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie. They smiled when they see us and the both of us smiled back at them.

“Rainbow! I didn’t expect it would be you!” Pinkie shouted with excitement.

Rainbow replied “Aye Pinkie. Me and Danny have been enjoying our time together.”

“I brought board games and everything. Make yourselves comfortable.”

Rarity said “You didn’t have to do all of this for us.”

“But I had. Our friendship means a lot to me. Also, I’ve wanted to talk to you anyways.”

“What is it?” Fluttershy asked.

“Do you know that the Flim and Flam brothers are closing this place down?” This caused a chain reaction. Rarity looked like she was ready to faint but she gasped big. Pinkie and Fluttershy were shocked and scared, they loved the company of children, why was the Barn being closed? Rainbow took it with a small gasped but wasn’t a big deal for her, since she was used of being alone. I heard of the Bite of ’87 where there was a bite of the frontal lobe, causing a chain reaction. Because of it, they pinned the blame on Rainbow and put her as “Out of Order” for good. “Well, thanks to me, I have taken you guys for my property. So, I’ll be taking you when the place closes. And I plan to have you guys perform in Equestria!”

Rainbow asked, confused “Equestria?”

Rarity protested “But that doesn’t exist-“

“That may not exist, but neither is this place. You see, my friend; the Ghost Writer, created the Book of Living Adventure. With that book, anything I put down on the setting and everything with magic, will come to life in my mind. Writer also told me that I have the power to bring any my dear friends through the portal that leads to the real world. If you need further proof…” I took out a marker and began to write in the air. When I finished, I flashed yellow briefly and my lightsabers appeared on me. They gasped in shock. “In my world, I am known as the Leader of the Phantom Consortium. This is a story and the tales are being written in it. So, when the story ends, so does this world. Luckily for me, I have the power to bring you guys with me. But all I have to do is get Applejack to come with us and I have the feeling she doesn’t like me. I know Twilight will come, I’m positive about that.”

Rainbow said “Don’t worry, with all of us with you now, she will try to kill you tomorrow when the power runs out.”

I nodded and we began to continue our fun.


6:00 AM

The bell rang out and the others returned to their proper place. I did everything before I left, smiling.

At Backstage…

On the table, there was two animatronic suits there. One resembled of Applejack but she was golden instead. She had the same blond mane and tail. She had a black bow and hat. Her eyes were soulless black. The other resembled as Pinkie Pie. She was golden as well, but all over instead. She had a black bow and she had the same soulless black eyes, but deep within it, there was a pair of eyes of a dead man.
