Rumor vs Fact

Guard's Log
11:55 pm, Entry 121

I think the animatronics took my advice on the difficulty level for these trainees. I think I'll be able to compare AppleJack's to the rest, even if they went kind of easy on her for that first time. Just like the last two nights, I don't know who's going to be my next trainee, though this time I do expect it'll be pretty interesting.

I put my journal away then skimmed through the cameras once, noticing someone moving across the dining area. I couldn't help but think to myself, 'Well, someone's early.' Then again I was too, I kinda had to be. I decided I might as well go out to meet the person, it was probably the new trainee. I grabbed my flashlight and headed for the dining area. Soon enough I found that I was right. The girl was wearing a traditional guard's uniform, with no changes whatsoever. She adjusted her glasses a bit as she looked around and then smiled to me. "Oh, hello! I'm Twilight Sparkle, I'm here for the night guard position?"

"Ah, so you are the next trainee. Well, it's nice to meet you, Twilight. I'm Kayla Cautio. Come with me, I'll take you to the office." I smiled and started walking towards the office, with Twilight following me. I sat down as soon as we got there and pulled up a seat next to me for her.

"AppleJack and Rarity have already told me about this experience, and I've been thinking of strategies since I first heard about it." Well, this girl certainly had some intellect on her. Maybe that was something to look out for...

"Well, that at least means I don't have to tell you anything much, since you already seem to know everything." I smiled and opened up the cameras, which she seemed instantly intrigued in. Everything was ok so far, so I let her look through them a couple times before she set them down.

"So, how quickly are the animatronics supposed to start up?"

"It usually takes a couple hours, but maybe if we're lucky it'll be a bit sooner."

"Great... so what are we supposed to do while we wait?"

"Well... why don't you tell me why you and all of your friends want this position? All at the same time?"

"Oh. Well, we tend to do pretty much everything together, and if we were going to get a job then we might as well try to do that together. This was one of the first places we saw that had a 'Help Wanted' sign, and it seemed like a thing we could all do together, so we decided to take it. Even if it is minimum wage..." We both gave nervous, awkward chuckles at this.

"Well, I can't guarantee you'll all get to cooperate on this exactly like I'm training you, but hey, there is the chance." I didn't dare tell her William's plan was to only have one girl take the job, that would be something she'd have to learn on her own with the rest of them. She just smiled and looked through the cameras, noticing Bonnie offstage. She kept calm, always a good trait in a guard, and just looked through cameras until she found him. Then she put them down. I was kind of impressed by her seemingly natural knowledge of what to do. "Well, you seem to have this down pat."

"It's pretty self-explanatory. And as I've already told you, my friends have already told me about all this."

"True. But the night will get tougher, so we'll see how you fare." I couldn't help but let out a playful, evil chuckle. Twilight seemed confused at first, but she went along with it.

As I had predicted, the night did get tougher as we went along. Twilight even seemed to get a bit nervous at times. Freddy even got the nerve to start moving around. I let her take the cameras while I handled doors, and things were almost as simple as ever. I think he tried to do a few things to me though, cause I got a couple headaches and Twilight mentioned a couple times that I had had this crazed look in my eye. But it didn't really matter, as nothing went wrong. Soon enough, everyone was back in their spots and we were walking out of there. Just before we got to the door, though, Twilight turned to me and seemed to have a worried look on her face. "So, from what I've seen here tonight.... the rumors are true."

I knew exactly what she was talking about, and got a bit nervous myself. "Uh, well..."

"This place is haunted, isn't it? I saw newspapers on one of the walls relaying a story about a murder here... the robots move because of those children, don't they?"

"I... y-you can't tell anyone about this. It would ruin Fazbear's... and if you want this job, it'd be better to keep the place safe so there's actually a job to be earned. Do you understand..?"

She looked at me a minute, thinking, then nodded. "Yes. I promise I'll keep my lips sealed. I just hope these kids can find another way to go about getting what they want..." She glanced to the animatronics for a second before walking out. This left me standing there, nervous knowing that she knew what secrets this place holds. I glanced to the animatronics, and walked up close to the stage.

"Guys... you have to be careful with these next few trainees. If Twilight can figure it out this fast... I'm scared she's going to tell her friends, despite her promise just now. Please, be careful and... don't get yourselves killed a second time." With that, I walked home, trying to clear my mind of what had happened before Twilight walked out.
