Chapter 1: The Nightmares of Freddy's

Chapter 1: The Nightmare of Freddy's

It was another day in Canterlot as the ponies went about their usual business. The train from Ponyville arrives letting off Twilight Sparkle, the newly crowned princess, and her friends the Mane Five and Spike. They were summoned to Canterlot by Princess Celestia, who wishes to speak to them about something urgent. No one knew what it was. The Alicorn of the Sun wishes to tell it to them in person.

"Ah gotta say, Twilight, yew seem rather...anxious." Applejack said. It's true, the cowpony notes how anxious her friend is getting. Whenever Celestia asked for her and/or any of her friends, Twilight is always anxious.

"I know, I get goosebumps just thinking about it." Twilight said with a slight sly.

"If a goose gets scared, when it could ponybumps?" Pinkie asks in amusement, making her friends laugh. They are used to the pony's behavior as long as they themselves had known her.

"To think, this happened right after my return from that other universe with the...two legged creatures. Uh, Spike? What do you call them again?"

"Humans and I was a dog." Spike remarks bitterly, recalling his previous adventure in which Twilight and Spike transformed into strange creatures: Twilight a human, him a dog. He pats Twilight on the leg, saying, "Relax. There's no reason to be anxious. The princess trusts you if she wants to tell you something...well, urgent."

"I am getting anxious even thinking about it!" Fluttershy exclaims nervously. "I am worried that we may not come back from this."

"Fluttershy, darling, don't be so scared." Rarity said with a smile to her meek friend. "It could be any sort of non-threatening mission, like taking care of endangered animals or helping diplomats or something."

"Oh, I hope you're right."

The group reaches the front gate. The Royal Guards let them in. Having been to this castle many times before, they knew how to get to the throne room by heart. And sure enough, in there right now is Princess Celestia herself, reading a scroll while waiting anxiously for her fellow new princess and the others to arrive. When she looks up, the Alicorn gave a warm smile, especially to Twilight.

"Twilight," Celestia exclaims as she got up from her friends and trots over to the group who came over. The Alicorn hugs the new purple princess gently. "Welcome back."

"It's good to see you again, princess." Twilight said with a warm blush for some reason. Whenever she is around Celestia...she felt comfortable."

"Now, now; you are a princess now. You can call me 'Celestia' if you wish."

"Okay...Celestia."

The two hug each other...as if getting more comfortable with one another. This amuses most of the others who saw this a few times before...whenever it involves siblings or lovers.

"You know, AJ, I betcha those two are secretly lovers." Rainbow remarks to Applejack with a slight smirk.

"Come on, Dashie, just because they be friendly like, doesn't mean they're..." Applejack yelps as she and the others are startled by what's happening next. Twilight and Celestia are giving kisses to each other, "Holy apples in a grinder!"

"Oh, sorry," Celestia said, sheepishly as she notices that the others are looking before letting go. "I supposed the secret's out..."

"Are you dating?" Spike asks Twilight and Celestia in bewilderment. "What about Flash and..."

"Spike, I'm a grown mare, I can see whom I like and haven't decided on who I want to be with yet." Twilight said, pushing a hoof in her mane while blushing. "Anyway, I haven't told you girls...I'm Bi."

"Bi what," Pinkie ask curiously, not understanding, "Bi polar, bicycle; Bi bi bi???"

"No...I'm into both genders. Surprisingly, so is the princess. We...have been seeing each other in secret and..."

"Ha! Told ya, AJ," Rainbow laughs a bit, slapping Applejack on the back while making her glare. "Just like you and me."

"Laugh it up, sugar cube, but one more move like 'dat an' yew can forget loving tonight!" Applejack exclaims to Rainbow, making her yelp.

"I'll be good, madam."

Celestia clears her throat, then prepares to get serious as she said, "That aside, Princess Twilight Sparkle, I've summoned you and your friends on an urgent matter...I am giving you a task that all of you six..."

"Seven." Spike said, reminding the princess that he's here.

"...seven can perform."

"So what task is it?" Rarity asks Celestia curiously. "Does it involve fashion; Gems?"

"Adventure," Rainbow ask while arching her eyebrows anxiously.

"Anything non-threatening," Fluttershy asks meekly to the princess. She is still hoping for the non-dangerous parts.

"I want you...to spend a few nights at a restaurant." Celestia explains calmly to the girls.

The seven blinks a bit, it was so silent that you could hear a pin drop. That...isn't what they're expecting. Rarity spoke up, "Princess, forgive me if this is sounding like questioning your order...but spending a few nights at a restaurant? We normally do slumber parties at home."

"Let me explain: a local restaurant is preparing to close at the end of the year. They needed someone to spend some nights there, hoping that by doing so, they can convince the local health inspectors that the place is safe for foals and adults alike. Honestly though, they could've at least try to fix the place up if they wish to save their place of business."

"Ooooh, in one part of that sentence, you sounded like a family foal place!" Pinkie exclaims, bouncing up and down eagerly.

"So Celestia, what is this place?" Twilight ask her fellow princess/secret lover at times curiously.

"Ever heard of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza?" Celestia ask the group with a nod, getting to the name of the place.

Twilight's eyes widen in horror...as memories of her past break in. As her time as a filly...sneaking into the Backstage Area in hopes to get a special treat...what the Freddy mascot has done when...the Alicorn sweats in fear and worry. Ever since that day, Twilight has vowed never to step hoof in Freddy's again, because...

"Twilight; Twilight," Spike exclaims, shaking Twilight to snap out of it. "Is something wrong?"

"You look trouble, honey." Celestia said to Twilight, noting the new princess's troubled look.

"I'm fine, really." Twilight said slowly while giving out a nervous look. She can't tell anyone, not even her lover, what she just saw. "Err, Freddy Fazbear's Pizza you say?"

"Ooooh, I love that place!" Pinkie exclaims with a wide grin while her ears perk up. "Their pizza is fine and so is the entertainment! I haven't been there for who knows how long."

"But Celestia, why does Freddy's need someone to stay a week there?"

"They are hoping a princess would give the place its reputation back or making a publicity stunt." Celestia explains to Twilight, rolling her eyes. "Anyway, seeing how you si...err, seven had dealt with matters like that before, I thought I would volunteered you all to help the restaurant, help get it back on its hooves."

"No prob, Princess." Applejack said with a nod. "Ah guess 'dis mission won't be a problem. Spend a week there..."

"Eat all the pizza we want!" Pinkie exclaims with a happy squee. "Play with the funny robots."

"Tell spooooooky ghost stories." Rainbow spoke, saying the 'spooky' part eerily, enough to make Fluttershy squeak a bit in fright.

"Eat more pizza!"

"Probably offer some designer tips." Rarity said thoughtfully, putting a hoof on her chin. "Perhaps help spice the place up."

"Errr, sounds...nice," Fluttershy ask meekly.

"But Princess. Doesn't the restaurant have any security guards to watch the place?" Twilight ask Celestia nervously. She doesn't want to ever set hoof in Freddy's again, not after...the incident, "Why not you; Or Luna?"

"To answer the last question first, Twilight, we got other responsibilities and don't have time right now. As for the first one...we don't know. The security guards of the restaurant has a habit of...disappearing without a trace." Celestia said seriously to Twilight. This made the new princess more nervous and worried. 'Disappearing without a trace'?

"Twilight, come on. It will be fun!" Spike exclaims to Twilight with a grin.

Twilight gulps a bit. If she keeps on trying to find reasons not to go, her friends, Spike and Celestia will demand to know why. The last thing that the mare wants is to explain her...experience...and maybe lose Celestia as a love.

"Oh, very well," Twilight said with a slow nod. After all, it's only a few nights, right? Nothing can go wrong with that...right?

---------------------

Later, the ponies arrived in a part of Canterlot, where Freddy Fazbear's Pizza was located.

"Wow, you're bi, Twilight?" Pinkie asked with a grin, bouncing up and down. "I knew you and the princess got something for one another but, wow!"

"Pinkie, come on." Twilight said with a blush.

"Come on! It isn't like you're the only one who likes to play both side of the ball field! So does Fluttershy!" Pinkie exclaims playfully.

"P-Pinkie..." Fluttershy said meekly while blushing.

"So Twilight, ever been to Freddy's?" Spike asks while riding on Twilight's back.

"Errrr...when I was a little filly...but that was...years ago," Twilight said slowly. The others looks concerned upon hearing that. Their Alicorn friend appeared to be acting...scared ever since the subject of Freddy's was brought up. Why?

"Here we are." Applejack said, looking up.

The group arrived outside of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, a storm began to brew as thunder and rain came pouring down. Twilight shuddered, glancing at the sign with Freddy right on it.

It's as she remembered it.

"Twilight; Twilight," Rarity said, pushing Twilight a bit, knocking her back to reality. "You okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, really." Twilight said with a slow nod. She isn't so fine though.

The ponies and dragon entered the restaurant. It's already closed for the day and the place was already cleaned up. Only one employee was still there apparently.

"Hey! You can't come in here, we're closed." The employee snapped as he trotted over. Upon getting closer, the unicorn blinked a bit. "Oh. You must be the new princess that was just crowned...and her friends."

"Yes, yes we are." Twilight said to the employee, holding out a hoof. The two shakes hooves as she said, "Celestia has send us to watch the place for a week at night."

"Yes. My name is Starker." Starker said with a grin. "You don't remember me, princess, but I was here when you stopped coming around. I was asking your foal sitter if you were all right."

"No wonder you looked familiar." Twilight said with a slight smile.

"And these must be the Mane Five and the little lizard." Starker said, glancing at the others.

"Hey, hey; Dragon, Dragon; Not lizard; I don't do that tongue thing!" Spike protested in irritation, then stuck his tongue out at him.

"Uh, let me show you around your new home." Starker said as he began leading the group. "You must pardon the mess. I was the last one to leave."

"Well, this place could use some decorating." Rarity said, glancing at the hats. "I am a designer of clothes."

"And I am designer of parties!" Pinkie exclaimed, causing confetti to come from who knows where.

Starker laughed a bit, then got serious as he explained, "Princess Twilight Sparkle, please let me explain. The restaurant has been on hard times lately and because of health violations, it's scheduled to close at the end of the year. The bosses felt that a princess's approval could help us get funding to fix the place up, extend it a bit."

"No problem! We will make this place Super Duper fun in no time!" Pinkie exclaimed, bouncing up and down.

Starker led the ponies and Dragon around. Although Twilight remembered the place by heart (and maybe Pinkie does, too), the others don't. Starker showed them the game area, the restrooms, and the dining room.

"And this is our main attraction." Starker said, leading the group to the stage which curtain was still open. "Fillies and Dragon, meet Freddy Fazbear and company."

The group now came face-to-face with Freddy and his pals, who were still standing on stage like they normally do during performances. Twilight blinked a bit at the gang. They were still the same after all these years...and yet, there's something about that appeared...off.

"Hi, Freddy and company," Pinkie said happily while waving to them.

"This is Bonnie the Bunny." Starker said, introducing Bonnie. He then motioned to Chica, "Chica the Chicken; and the leader of the gang, Freddy Fazbear."

As if on cue, Freddy then activated, speaking into his mike, "Hey, kids! Are you ready to have some fun? Well, we're going to have some fun, right Bonnie?"

"Sure do, Freddy!" Bonnie exclaimed in agreement. "Well, I couldn't have any reason not to have any fu..fu...fu...fu...fu.."

Bonnie said the 'fu' part repeatedly. Starker groaned, got on stage and hit the bunny hard with one hoof.

Bonnie finished, "...fun."

"Sorry about that. These robots are years old. They tend to glitch every now and again." Starker apologizes to the visitors sheepishly.

"Didn't you think of fixing them up?" Twilight asked Starker in concern.

"Yeah, there's another problem. Because of the incidents that happened here in the past, no company would go near the place with a wing." Starker said with a sigh.

"I can also see why." Rarity remarked, gagging as she sniffed something. "By the mane of Celestia, when's the last time these guys had a bath?"

"Yeah, the major reason for the health violations: the parents are complaining about the smell." Starker explained with a sad sigh, shaking his head. "We never figured out why."

"Huh, imagine 'dat." Applejack said, glancing at the robots curiously.

"Girls, why don't we move on? Move on!" Twilight insisted frantically, wanting to move away from the Soundstage.

"Oh, come on, Twilight; don't tell me you're freaked out over animal figures." Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes to tease her friend in her spooked behavior over Freddy and his gang.

"It's not that, it's just...I don't trust them." Twilight spoke while looking away, having a hard time stating something.

"Sugar, ye do realize them things ain't real or alive, they do as some gizmo programs them." Applejack raised an eyebrow in pointing out a fact that Freddy and the others are nothing but inanimate'd objects.

"It’s okay, Twilight, I know what you mean. Once, my toaster was acting weird, and at the same time, my hoof shoes kept disappearing. I think he was taking them, cause something turn it...eviiiil." Pinkie Pie popped near her friend to give her comfort, stating how she once experienced something weird with her appliance in the strangest and weirdest way; much to everyone's weird reaction to hearing that.

"Pinkie, darling, we told you before, that is simply impossible. You also said you ate an expired cake and that the doctor said you hallucinated the whole thing." Rarity rolled her eyes in telling her pink friend that she imagined the whole thing.

"Well, even still, that toaster seem like it was possessed!" Pinkie Pie protested to say this, as many of the serious members just shook their heads; this one can be random at times.

"Maybe you just ate some really expired food the last time, Twilight." Fluttershy spoke to comfort Twilight in what she went through was from eating something unhealthy to her. Whatever made the Alicorn uncomfortable by the robots, expired food must be the reason!

"Trust me, I wish it was that, but...it wasn't." Twilight spoke in looking almost frightened by the memories, no way that was a food-poisoning event that trigger such horrifying images.

"Man, you think these things could come alive at any....wooh!" Then Spike was yanked away by Twilight's magic before he even came near Freddy's stood body.

"DON'T GET NEAR THEM! DON'T APPROACH OR COME IN CONTACT! THEY'LL KILL YOU SO MUCH WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT!" Twilight was seen gluing her head to Spike in yelling out this message with a terrifued tone as if what the baby Dragon almost did would have ended in his death if not careful. Spike gulped hard in fear, not of the message, but at Twilight's action.

The Mane Five saw this in feeling like maybe Twilight needs help calming down. This place seemed to really get to her, and they couldn't figure out why.

"Uh, why don't we move away and continue the tour?" Starker suggested, knowing that Twilight is getting more scared.

The group couldn't help but agree. As they moved on, Applejack noticed an area that was closed off by a curtain; a sign that said 'Sorry! Out of Order' was front of it.

"Hey, what's in there?" Applejack asked, pointing a hoof at the curtain.

Starker looks at the curtain then explains, "That is Pirate's Cove, home of the swashbuckling pirate fox who roam the Equestrian Seas, Foxy the Pirate Fox."

"Why's this say out of order?" Rainbow asked in confusion. Out of curiosity, she opened a curtain to take a peek. There's an animatronic robot who is apparently sitting there as if alone and forgotten. Foxy was a large, animatronic fox with reddish brown, tattered fur. He had a hook as his right hand, and an eye patch that was folded over his right eye. Foxy wore brown linen pants that are especially shredded at the legs. He appeared to be damaged, as parts of his machinery were exposed. It could clearly be seen that his legs were completely bare, exposing the metal endoskeleton. His chest was ripped in some places, showing the endoskeleton beneath, and his arms and stomach were torn apart as well. He appeared to have a broken lower jaw, making it so that the mouth cannot close properly. He also seemed to have a slightly droopy left eyelid.

Like all of the other Fazbear characters, Foxy had a set of teeth. Foxy's teeth, however, appeared to be the sharpest, being similar to those of an actual canine, while the other animatronics' teeth resemble human-like dentures. It's also notable that, in keeping with the pirate motif, he has several golden teeth, and also appeared to have some teeth missing. His upper jaw muzzle was speckled on the sides with black dots, indicating either beard stubble or invisible whiskers.

"He has been decommissioned for years." Starker explained as he peeked in, sighing at Foxy. "We don't have the budget to fix him...and he's part of the family so we don't want to throw him out."

"Poor little thing." Fluttershy said sadly, feeling a bit sorry for Foxy.

"Why was he decommissioned?" Twilight asked in concern. Come to think of it, she recalled seeing Foxy during her days as a filly, but hadn't seen him for years to understand why.

"That is a story best left for another day." Starker said, closing the curtains as if wanting to avoid the subject for now. "Now then..."

As the group left, no one noticed that Foxy came to life, looking up and glaring to where they left. And as the group goes down a hall, not one of them saw Freddy's group coming to life, turning and glaring to where they went...

---------------

"And this is where you'll be staying the week." Starker explained as he brought the group into a security office. It had a fan that was cooling the room, a phone, drawings of Freddy and his pals on a wall, pictures of the cupcake, a panel with two buttons near each room, a chair to sit in, two windows that showed the hallways, and some sort of laptop. "We normally have security guards working the night shift, but for some unknown reason, we have trouble keeping them for a few nights or so."

Starker cleared his throat as he began explaining the stuff. He pointed to the phone as he said, "Now this is the phone."

"We know what a phone is." Spike remarked dryly.

"Yeah...and these are drawings if you wanna look at them, especially of the poster." Starker said, motioning to the drawer, along with a poster of Freddy and his pals on stage with the words 'Let's Celebrate' on it. He then motioned to the panels, "Now then, these panels are important. The top button opens and closes the door. The bottom turns the lights on."

Starker now picked up the laptop with his magic, giving it to Twilight as he continued, "This laptop shows the images of the cameras throughout the restaurant, one at a time."

Starker now motioned to a battery generator, explaining, "Now, because of our budget, this room is powered by a battery generator which recharges automatically every 6 hours. The cameras, doors and lights will drain so use them wisely."

"Anything else we should know, darling?" Rarity asked.

"Yeah, see that panel over there?" Starker asked as he pointed a hoof at a panel nearby. "That controls the AIs of the animatronics. Don't tamper with them. We don't want them to break down further than they are already."

"Okay, anything else?" Twilight asked Starker, arching an eyebrow.

"Hmm, what time is it?" Starker asked, glancing at the clock. He gasped, "Holy horse crap! It's 11:45! I am here longer than I thought! Uh, I will leave you alone now for your fun. Now, I got some few instructions let to give you. Rule 1, stay in this room between 12:00 and 6:00. No need to get lost in the dark. If you need to go, do so now!"

"Okay, I'll go now." Fluttershy said meekly as she slowly attempted to leave, not wanting to be around whatever was haunting the place.

"Get back here." Rainbow said, pulling her tail by the teeth, bringing Fluttershy back.

"I mean to go to the bathroom, duh!" Starker exclaimed, slapping his forehead with a hoof. "Second, check the cameras; check everything at all times! Use them whenever necessary. Third, try not to break the robots."

"But how can we if we aren't permitted to leave the room?" Spike asked Starker, puzzled. It wouldn’t make sense if the gang isn’t allowed to break the robots when they also aren’t allowed to leave the room!

"Now then, a former security guard of ours left recordings to give out to the newcomers here on the answering machine." Starker said, motioning to an answering machine connected to the phone on the table. "Listen to him no matter what."

"Okay, sounds easy so far." Applejack said with a nod.

"And finally...no matter what happens, make sure no one gets into the restaurant...and NOTHING comes out!" Starker exclaimed sternly. The last part caught the Mane Six's attention.

"Nothing... comes out?" Fluttershy asked a bit nervously.

"What is 'dat supposed 'ta mean?" Applejack asked suspiciously.

"11:48! Gotta go; I will leave you to it." Starker said. He didn't waste any more time in galloping out of the room. "Oh! And enjoy your week stay here at Freddy's."

Starker galloped out of the room, disappearing into the darkness. Twilight shudders, "I don't know why but I am concerned more than ever."

"I'm scared." Fluttershy whimpered.

"Relax, what could go wrong at a restaurant?" Pinkie asked happily.

Twilight wished that she shared her friend's happy nature right now.

---------------------------

12:00 AM, 1st Night

It is now midnight as the girls and Spike are keeping themselves busy. The baby Dragon manages to bring his comic books along for him to read. Rarity was discussing some design tips with Pinkie who is bouncing up and down while SOMEHOW manage to pay attention. Fluttershy was sitting in a corner, trying her best not to be frightened while Applejack and Rainbow are playing with some sort of mini-game that the Pegasus pony has found in the prizes area.

"Oh yeah, won again!" Rainbow exclaims with a grin as she had beaten Applejack at yet another game.

"Shoot. Ah could've sworn yew done cheated!" Applejack exclaims to Rainbow in frustration.

"Me? Cheat? Hay, you're talking to the Element of Loyalty here. I only cheat...sometimes!"

"Keep it down, will you?" Twilight scolds her friends. She looks at the cameras on the lap-top thing, checking on the images from each camera. Freddy and his pals are still on stage. Everything else is silent. Odd, for some reason, the camera for the Kitchen is broken. Twilight would've gone to see why...if she hasn't remembered that Starker told her and her friends to stay put in the security room.

Fluttershy got up and heads over to the drawings. She notes how cute they are, despite how this restaurant appears to be a bit creepy at nice. The yellow Pegasus pony thought back on poor Foxy, forgotten and broken down. What happened that made him decommissioned all these years?

What's more concerning Fluttershy is Twilight's behavior. The new Alicorn isn't thrilled to be coming back here for some reason. What happened?

Twilight changes the channel to that of the Backstage...the same one she was in years ago. The mare cringes as memories of what happened returned to her mind...

----------------

"All right, kids. You ready for Freddy?" The mascot asks the foals who cheers wildly. Twilight gave a wide smile. She is ready for Freddy! But then, the mascot then spoke in a dark voice, "Good...because Freddy is ready...for you."

Twilight watches in hiding, ready for the special treat...that is until the Freddy mascot opens a drawer...and pulls out some sort of sharp knife. The unicorn filly looks confused. What kind of special treat involves a knife? Is he gotta cut pizza or something?

Twilight's eyes widen as she watch what's happening in front of her. The cries of joy gave way to that of terror, slashing noises...that doesn't involve cutting pizza, but cutting something else. And because of the cheering and loud noises in the dining room area, no one else could hear what's going on! Twilight yelps in terror, feeling like she wants to scream as the mascot continues his business...then the foals are silent...forever. The mascot then proceeds in...

--------------------------

Suddenly the phone rang, causing Twilight to scream and threw the laptop into the air. Rainbow yelps and flew up to catch it in time.

"Oh, careful; we ain't paying for this baby if it breaks!" Rainbow scolds Twilight who calm herself down.

"It's just the phone, Twilight." Spike assures Twilight, glancing at the ringing phone.

Right, the phone; Twilight chuckles a bit awkwardly. Just the phone...but who could it be? It's the middle of the night, Freddy's is closed...and the only ones who knew that the Mane Six and Spike were here were Starker and the princess. The group decided to let the answering machine get it.

Sure enough, a stallion's voice is heard on the other end, "Hello, hello? Uh, I wanted to record a message for you to help you get settled in on your first night."

"This must be the same former security guard who used to work here that Starker told us about." Rarity said, glancing at the phone. Starker told the group to expect the former security guard's recordings.

"I like him! I will call him 'Phone Guy'." Pinkie said randomly, making her friends chuckle a bit.

The caller, known as Phone Guy, continues, "Um, I actually worked in that office before you. I'm finishing up my last week now, as a matter of fact. So, I know it can be a bit overwhelming, but I'm here to tell you there's nothing to worry about. Uh, you'll do fine. So, let's just focus on getting you through your first week. Okay? Uh, let's see, first there's an introductory greeting from the company that I'm supposed to read. Uh, it's kind of a legal thing, you know. Um, "Welcome to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza; A magical place for foals and grown-up ponies alike, where fantasy and fun come to life. Fazbear Entertainment is not responsible for damage to property, pony, Dragon or any other species. Upon discovering that damage or death has occurred, a missing species report will be filed within 90 days, or as soon property and premises have been thoroughly cleaned and bleached, and the carpets have been replaced.""

"Wait, what is 'dat supposed 'ta mean?" Applejack ask in concern, hearing the last part, "'Damage'; 'Death'? Is he saying 'dat someone dies on 'dis job?"

"Oh, I'm sure he isn't serious." Twilight said to Applejack, giving out a nervous chuckle.

"Blah blah blah, now that might sound bad, I know, but there's really nothing to worry about. Uh, the animatronic characters here do get a bit quirky at night, but do I blame them? No. If I were forced to sing those same stupid songs for twenty years and I never got a bath? I'd probably be a bit irritable at night too." The Phone Guy's voice explains to the group though a hint of worry can be heard in his voice. "So, remember, these characters hold a special place in the hearts of foals and we need to show them a little respect, right? Okay."

"Yeah, we would." Spike said with a nod.

"So, just be aware, the characters do tend to wander a bit."

"'Wander'?" Fluttershy ask, startled upon hearing that.

"Wait, what?" Rainbow ask, also startled. Is the Phone Guy also suggesting...that these robots are alive?

"Uh, they're left in some kind of free roaming mode at night; Uh...Something about their servos locking up if they get turned off for too long. Uh, they used to be allowed to walk around during the day too. But then there was The Incident Bite." Phone Guy add, much to the girls and baby Dragon's concern, "Yeah. I-It's amazing that the pony body can live without the frontal lobe, you know?"

"What? What? What? Frontal lobe," Fluttershy ask, shivering in fear. She wants to leave and go home! The poor mare doesn't want to lose her frontal lobe!

Twilight's eyes shrank as she uses the camera to check on the robots. She recalled how the robots used to interact with the little ponies during the day time...but that was years ago when she was still a filly! What happened at the Incident Bite day that changed all that?

"Uh, now concerning your safety, the only real risk to you as a night watch-pony here, if any, is the fact that these characters, uh, if they happen to see you after hours probably won't recognize you as a pony, Dragon, griffin, whatever. They'll p-most likely see you as a metal endoskeleton without its costume on. Now since that's against the rules here at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, they'll probably try to...forcefully stuff you inside a Freddy Fazbear suit. Um, now, that wouldn't be so bad if the suits themselves weren't filled with crossbeams, wires, and animatronic devices, especially around the facial area. So, you could imagine how having your head forcefully pressed inside one of those could cause a bit of discomfort...and death. Uh, the only parts of you that would likely see the light of day again would be your eyeballs and teeth when they pop out the front of the mask, heh." The Phone Guy's explains, chuckling as if trying to give out a bit dark humor to this.

"He can't be serious!" Rarity exclaims, getting scared. There's no way that those robots are real...and can kill anyone by stuffing them into a suit!

"Y-Yeah, they don't tell you these things when you sign up. But hey, first day should be a breeze. I'll chat with you tomorrow. Uh, check those cameras, and remember to close the doors only if absolutely necessary; Gotta conserve power; Alright, good night."

A beeping noise came from the answering machine, meaning that the call is over. The Mane Six and Spike are worried, frightened and concerned. Why didn't Starker told them of the robots being able to move...and maybe tried to kill anyone after hours? The Phone Guy cannot be serious...can he?

Twilight and her friends look at the camera on the laptop; the image shows the Stage where Freddy, Bonnie and Chica stood in place. Fluttershy whimpers, "You don't think...he's right, do you?"

"Awww, come on, Fluttershy!" Pinkie exclaims happily to Fluttershy. "No way can those cute robots end up being killers!"

"Yeah," Rainbow laughs in disbelief while glancing at the camera image. "I mean, what, the Phone Guy is trying to kid us by saying that these guys..."

Suddenly something happens that spook the ponies: the animatronics turns to the camera, glaring right at them...without anyone interacting with them!

The girls and Spike screams in terror, with Rainbow finishing what she said in horror, "...can move?!"

-------------------------

Freddy and his pals watch as the camera is deactivated. They are guessing that the princess and her group must've switched the cameras or turn the laptop off.

"So are they really in there?" Chica ask Freddy curiously.

"Of course...all these years, she was there, knowing...we suffered because of her." Freddy remarks to his colleagues bitterly and angrily. "She should've told somepony...and we are left to rot in these robotic bodies."

"So what do we do, Freddy?" Bonnie asks Freddy curiously.

"Get them...or better yet, get the princess....she will have a lot to answer for for allowing that imposter to take our lives away...or not telling anyone where we are..."

Bonnie and Chica nods a bit. Despite having identifies issues between their robotic forms and...their true forms, theirs and Freddy's mission is clear: Twilight Sparkle must die!

Twilight and her friends recover from the shock. They breathe in and out, looking scared. They couldn't saw what they themselves thought they saw...did they?

"Okay, so the robots can move." Spike said with a slow nod, trying to recover. "Then again, the Phone Guy did say that they used to move in the daytime, right?"

"I don't understand. From the way those guys are looking at us...it's like they hate us already." Fluttershy said, shivering a bit. "I don't understand as to why."

"Maybe they're curious!" Rarity exclaims nervously. "After all, this is the first time of us being here. They probably don't know us yet."

"Right, yeah." Twilight said as she picks up the laptop. Luckily it didn't break. The mare begins looking at the image of the stage...when... "Wait, where's Bonnie?"

The others look at the camera. Freddy and Chica are still on stage...but there's no trace of Bonnie! Twilight nervously goes through the cameras...finding Bonnie in Dining Room. The mare yelps at this. How did that bunny get there so fast?

"Well, so far, Bonnie isn't causing trouble." Applejack commented. She notes the tense look on Twilight's face, "Twilight; Yew okay?"

Twilight gulps as another memory of her past ends up in her mind....

---------------

"What happened?" Night Light asks Cadance and Shining in alarm. The parents were alarmed when the two brought in a crying and scared Twilight home. The filly jumps out of Cadance's holds and didn't waste time in going upstairs.

"We don't know, dad!" Shining exclaims to his father in concern. "We were at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza..."

"Oh, that place." Twilight Velvet said with an annoyed sigh. "That place is a fun place for foals and grown up ponies...but the way that the robots interact with the folks? And how they don't get along with the adults for some reason? Its kinda creep me out."

"Anyway, me and Cadance were talking, eating, when Twilight came up, crying! I don't know what happened. She wouldn't tell us what happened!"

"I'm sorry for what happened, sir." Cadance said, feeling guilty. She was supposed to foal sat Twilight, keep an eye on her. But instead, the Alicorn let her attention turned to Shining for one moment and something horrible happened. "I'll understand if you would fire me."

"It's okay, Cadance. It isn't your fault." Night Light said with a sigh as he sat down in the chair. "I got a feeling that we may not go back to Freddy's again."

"Concerning how that place freaks me out, I'll understand." Twilight Velvet said as she heads up the stairs. "I will go check on Twilight."

Twilight Velvet opens the door to Twilight's room, peek in. There's her daughter, under the covers while looking to the opposite wall of the room. If she knew that her mother was there, the mare sure didn't acknowledge."

"Twilight, honey; you want to speak about what happened?" Twilight Velvet asks her daughter in worry.

"No, mommy...please...don't make me go back there." Twilight said trembling. The mother sighs a bit.

"Look, if you don't want to talk about it, it's okay. When you want to speak of it...feel free to do so. Your father, Shining and I...we care and love you as a family does."

Twilight Velvet thus took her leave, knowing that her daughter would need time to recover. Twilight however believes that she never would...the filly would never forget what that Freddy mascot...a golden suit...has done...

------------

"Twilight? Twilight," Spike exclaims, shaking Twilight awake.

"What? Huh?" Twilight ask, startled a bit.

"Something's happening. Bonnie isn't in the Dining Room anymore!"

Sure enough, Twilight checks the image and saw that Bonnie is missing. The mare quickly change the image to the West Hall...and the gang saw Bonnie rushing down it before disappearing. In worry, Rarity turns to the panel facing the door to the West Hall and press the light switch.

"GRRRRRR," Bonnie roars from outside. The ponies screams in fright as the bunny stood outside, glaring into the room.

"Oh, calm down, ponies. It’s just a cute big bunny." Fluttershy said, trying to calm her friends down. She flew over and spoke gently, "Hey, Bonnie. My name is Fluttershy. Do..."

Suddenly Bonnie screeches as he swipes at Fluttershy, trying to grab her. The Pegasus pony screams and jumps back. Rainbow quickly flew over to the panel and presses the door button, closing the door in the robotic bunny's face. Bonnie is outside, pounding on the door in frustration.

"That is one...nasty bunny." Fluttershy said with a shudder.

"Let me in, let me in!" Bonnie's voice roars from outside.

"Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin!" Pinkie calls out to Bonnie playfully. The others look at her oddly. "What?"

Twilight nervously uses her magic to press the light switch. Bonnie is outside, his shadow is seen on the wall due to the lights. The Alicorn quickly checks the cameras for the Stage. Freddy is still there and...wait...where's Chica?

"Um, Dashie; Are yellow ducks or birdies supposed to be scary?" Pinkie Pie tapped Rainbow's shoulder in noticing something in front of them.

"No, they're ducks. Usually folks call someone a yellow belly coward." Rainbow Dash responded to say while working on her eyes to her laptop, watching the cameras in looking for anything unusual.

"Then would a coward be right over there? Looking like he's gonna get us?" Pinkie Pie pointed out this fact.

Then as Rainbow Dash looks away from her laptop in watching the cameras, she got a surprise. There was Chica the Chicken as it was in front of them when their eyes were not watching so carefully in the room to keep in from coming in.

Then it made a loud screech noise as it launches to attack them.

"Aaaaahhhh," The ponies screamed in terror in ducking and running for their lives.

They ran towards the other door, but they found out that they were blocked off, because it was still closed.

"Eeep! We're trapped!" Fluttershy exclaimed frantically. Worst yet, Chica is getting closer.

Chica screeched as she yelled, "We want...the...princess!!!"

"What do you want with me?!" Twilight demanded in fear.

Before Chica could finish, Pinkie quickly threw a trash can onto the head, making Chica yelp. She stumbled around, trying to see.

"Where are the lights?! Why can't I see," Chica demanded. As she tried to get the trash can off, the robotic chicken unknowingly left the security room.

Pinkie didn't waste time in rushing to the panel for the right door and press the door button, closing it. The ponies and Dragon sighed in relief. That was a close one!

"Okay, forgot what I said about chickens." Rainbow exclaimed, feeling her heart to make sure that it's still there.

Twilight press the light switch, glancing through the window. She spoke, "Bonnie's gone now."

Twilight pressed the door switch to reopen the left door. Applejack pressed the right light switch. Chica, who managed to get the trash can off, glared at her through the window.

"Go on! Shoo! Yew're scaring us, ponies!" Applejack scowled, trying to wave Chica away.

"We... want... the princess!" Chica growled from the window.

"You gotta come in and get her yourself! Naaaah!" Rainbow exclaimed then stuck her tongue out at Chica.

Chica growled and charged at the window, slamming into it. Rainbow yelped and jumped back in fear.

"Yikes! Okay, bad idea, very bad," Rainbow exclaimed nervously. All she did was provoke Chica.

Twilight looked worried and scared. This wasn't right. Why were the robots after her? She didn't do anything to them! The only time Twilight even came close to interaction was with that Freddy mascot gold suit; and even then...

------------------------

"Mommy; Daddy?" Twilight asked cutely to her parents. The family is sitting at a table at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, two weeks before the incident that scarred Twilight for life.

"Yes, Twiley," Night Light asked her daughter with a smile.

"How are those robots able to talk and sing like that?" Twilight asked as she pointed a hoof at the house band. Freddy and his pals were singing to the foals who cheered them on.

Night Light chuckled a bit, "Well, they are recorded tracks in them ahead of time. And they are programmed to respond well to the foals."

"Not to the adult ponies." Twilight Velvet said, shivering at the memory. "It's the same problem that happened at the original location."

"But why," Twilight asked her mother. Why were the robots having trouble getting along with the adults?

"We don't know, Twiley. The old robots there give the original folks there a problem various times." Night Light explained to Twilight with a sigh. "And so, after Freddy Fazbear's Pizza opened up, they replaced the old ones with new friendly ones...though that Puppet thing gives me the creeps!"

Twilight looked puzzled. 'Puppet'; Does her father meant that weird thing at Prize Corner?

"Hiya, little filly," A version of Bonnie known as Toy Bonnie said to Twilight, "Filly; Filly...."

------------------------

"Hey, Twilight!" Pinkie shouted loudly that Twilight almost fell out of her seat.

"Gah; What," Twilight asked Pinkie frantically and alarm.

"You were having one flashback. Anyway, the chicken's gone." Pinkie explains to Twilight with a grin.

"Oh, thank Celestia." Twilight sighed in relief.

"Oooooh; want to get back into her forearms, eh, Twilight," Rainbow asked devilishly, arching her eyebrows at that.

"Shut up." Twilight said, blushing.

--------------------------------

Hours had passed as the ponies kept working on keeping an eye on the cameras as well as the doors. Bonnie and/or Chica would visit and try to get in, but they would close the doors to keep the two out.

Often, Chica would visit the Kitchen, though whatever she does in there, no pony knows. The camera in there was still broken.

As they looked at the camera, they noticed a pink pony (....................Okay, you all get who it is) in the Dining Room as she was trotting, humming a tune. Some were worried about her as Bonnie and Chica were back there now.

"I might be not mostly scared, but I am not THAT CRAZY." Rainbow said in concern. What is that pony doing out there? And how the hay did she got in here???

"She's going to be slaughtered." Rarity said in agreement. Someone has to go out there and fetch her!

They braced for the screams to happen, but nothing. Twilight looked, noticing that some of the robots were gone on the stage, but the pony was still there. It looked to be a shocking sight; she's playing patty cake with Freddy, much to their shock. They heard her voice as they patty caked, but bits of static made it hard to hear some of it.

"I know you want to harm Twilight, but please, it's not her fault." The pink creature said to Freddy playfully.

"You're only lucky; if you were not so nice to us, we would have stuffed you into a suit by now." Freddy said to the pink flat-mane pony with a grunt.

She giggled, "Awww, that's cute, but you know I am not a normal little pony, you know that." Pinkamena gave a dark grin and said, "And also what you did to my big brother, you're lucky I do not make metal-flavored cupcakes, and I will."

Freddy rolled his eyes and says, "How was I to know that the brown Alicorn was your brother?"

"Well, how was I to know you and your friends are killers?" The pink flat-maned pony asked Freddy with a question right back.

Freddy paused then added, "Touché, little filly, but Twilight will die for what she's done."

"Don't count on it." The new pony commented. They stopped and she got up and trotted off. "Thank you for the time, Freddy, hope to play hide and seek next time."

"I will be busy, but fine, but it better not be too long." Freddy assured the pink new pony.

"You know it is never long Freddy." She giggled creepily as she climbed into a vent. As she was gone, Freddy shuddered momentarily then recovered.

"That little filly is more messed up than us, minus the killing and such." Freddy remarked.

"I don't know what's going on out there, and I would rather not know." Fluttershy said, trembling.

Twilight nodded a bit. That new pink pony was a lucky one! The mare checked the cameras and found Bonnie in the Broom Closet.

"Bonnie's in the closet," Twilight explained to her friends.

"Oh, so he got a gay side to hide, huh, Twilight?" Spike asked Twilight with a mischievous smile.

"That isn't what I meant, Spike!" Twilight groaned, slapping herself on the forehead.

"Well, when you said 'in the closet', that's pretty ironic." Spike said with a chuckle.

"Uh, everyone," Pinkie asked worriedly as she noticed something.

"Rainbow, what time is it?" Twilight ask, ignoring what Pinkie's saying.

"5 AM." Rainbow said, checking on the clock nearby which read '5 AM', "Or somewhere after that."

"Good! Almost there!" Twilight said in hope.

"Girls," Pinkie asked nervously, trying to get her friends' attention.

"Well, you would've thought that this place could use some redesigning." Rarity remarked, groaning a bit. "What, with those robots roaming around, the company hiding evidence of ponies' deaths, it's a wonder they stay in business for so long!"

"I'd plumb like 'ta know why those freaks wanna 'ta 'git in...hang on." Applejack said as she checked the light switch for the left door. Bonnie was out there, glaring, "Yew mind, Bonnie? We're plumb havin' a conversion!"

Applejack closed the door, blocking Bonnie off. Pinkie called out, "Girls; Spike?"

"And who was that pink pony?" Rarity asked the others in concern. "Does anypony know? And how did she get in here?"

"I don't know!" Twilight exclaimed, sweating a bit. "Why must I know these things? Don't look at me!"

"Nopony is." Applejack said to Twilight in concern. "Why're yew gitting so tense?"

"I AM NOT GETTING TENSE! I JUST DON'T WANT ANY..." Suddenly, without warning, the lights in the rooms went out before the doors were raised open, much to Twilight's shock. "...questions?"

"Yeah, I wanted to tell you that. The battery has run out." Pinkie explained awkwardly to her friends.

"Oh no! We're doomed" Fluttershy whimpered in fear.

"Great! What's the worst that can happen now?!" Rainbow asks with a groan.

As if being answered, the hard way, a song began to play from the left door. The ponies and Dragon turned to see eyes flashing as the song 'El Toreador' plays.

"Freddy...." Spike said nervously as he backed away.

"Go away, Freddy, go away." Fluttershy whimpered a bit as she backed herself in a corner.

Surprisingly, Freddy didn't go near the other ponies or Spike. He was advancing on Twilight, who was backed into a corner. The Alicorn's blood was frozen in fear. It's like karma! She had escaped someone in a Freddy mascot suit years before…and now, a Freddy bot was out to get her!

"What do you want?!" Twilight demanded as she found herself in a corner. The mare fired a magic blast and hit Freddy. But it didn't faze him. "What did I do to you?! I swear...whatever happened in the Backstage years ago...please leave me alone..."

Freddy growled, appearing to screech...Twilight was about to scream. This was it...

Suddenly, a bell ring came from out of nowhere, followed by foals cheering. The lights were turned on as Freddy stopped his attack to look at the clock. It was now 6 AM. Twilight had made it!

Freddy paused, glancing at Twilight as if trying to peer into her soul. The Alicorn gulped, wondering what the bear would do...

Then Freddy turned around and left the room. Twilight breathed in and out, then collapsed onto the floor.

"Twilight," The other girls cried as they rushed over and helped Twilight up. The mare was hyperventilating. What happened there was a near-death experience. It's as if her whole life flashed before her eyes.

"It's okay, sugar cube, it's okay." Applejack said to Twilight calmly.

"You're safe, the mean bear's gone." Fluttershy said to Twilight with a nod.

Twilight looked at Fluttershy as she spoke in a traumatized manner, "Fluttershy...if only you knew...what I just been through..."

---------------------

It was 7 AM as Starker came to work. He opens the doors and came inside. Upon arrival, the unicorn notices the Mane Six and Spike at a table, waiting for him apparently.

"Ah, morning, princess; and friends," Starker exclaims as he trots on over to the seven. "Did you had a good night?"

"Oh, well, it was a good night, yeah." Applejack said to Starker, giving an awkward look to Starker. "Except fer one thing..."

"Yeah?"

"WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU TELL US THAT THOSE DAMN ROBOTS CAN MOVE?!" Rainbow yells out furiously, flying over and got into Starker's face, making him yelp while backing off, "Oh yeah. And also why didn't you tell us that those guys would try to kill us?!"

"What's going on, Starker?" Twilight demands angrily to Starker as she got up then trots over to him. "They weren't this vicious and bloodthirsty when I was here years ago as a filly!"

"Look...I wanted to tell you, really, but I feared you may close us down sooner if I told you the truth." Starker said to Twilight with a sigh.

"After tonight, I feel like not giving approval at all. I mean, how long has this been going on?!"

"Since before, during and after your last visit; Years ago, there used to be a place called "Fredbear's Family Diner", which was a family restaurant before it was closed down for years. The place was brought and renamed "Freddy Fazbear's Pizza" where we got the old robots. We tried using new animatronics for a while...didn't work out well, so we got rid of them. Then things got even terrible."

"Like the Incident Bite?" Rarity ask Starker angrily, startling him. "The Phone Guy, at least Pinkie named him, told us about it."

"It's the reason why Foxy was decommissioned, was it?" Rainbow demanded, glaring at the curtain closing off Pirate's Cover. "Did he bite someone?"

Starker hesitates, getting scared. He finally sighs while admitting, "Yes. Foxy did bit someone. Of course, I wasn't here when it happened...the guard who once worked night shift, he was. We don't know who the victim was. According to newspapers, Foxy bit a foal's frontal lobe, though some claims that it was the guard itself who was working the day shift or somepony else. Hay, I don't know. I never saw the former day shift guard again. After that, when we reopened sometime later, the place got a low budget because no company would come near us, Foxy was decommissioned, and the robots aren't allowed to move around in the daytime anymore. And as you saw from your experience...we had trouble keeping night guards for more than a few nights since then."

Twilight groans a bit, shaking her head. This has been going on ever since Fredbear's Family Diner has closed down? Why didn't the management do a thing about it earlier? And if the robots had been having major glitches, mistaking ponies or whatever as robots without suits, why are they after her?

Twilight looks at Freddy and his pals still on stage. The Alicorn sweats as they appear to be looking into her soul...judging her for something that happened in the Backstage years ago. The poor mare could sworn that she can hear foals screaming their last...screaming from inside the suits...taunting and giving out abusive words at her: 'murderer', 'monster', 'evil witch', etc. Twilight is twitching like mad as...

"Twilight," Spike exclaims, startling Twilight who turns around to face the others, "Twilight, why do you keep zoning out like that?"

"Nothing, nothing," Twilight said nervously. She turns to Starker, saying, "Well, Starker. After tonight, looks like I may not have to spend another night for my decision."

"Yeah, I understand that." Starker said with a sigh, trotting over and looking up to the robots. "I sure hate for these guys to..."

"No. I said 'may'. We are spending another night here."

"What," The Mane Five and Spike yelps in shock with Starker looking at her in surprise.

"You kidding, right," Rainbow yells out to Twilight in disbelief. "Those jerk ass robots almost kill us! And now, you wanna spend another night here?!"

"We only spend 1 night so far, Rainbow." Twilight explains to Rainbow. She glances to Starker while adding, "I will explain outside."

"Well, I'm surprised that you want to come back. Though, I won't blame ya if you change your mind." Starker said to Twilight in amazement and surprise that the princess decided to come back after 1 horrible night.

"Trust me, Starker; I had faced worse than robots."

"Oh, very well. Oh; and here's a little gift from me to you for your first night."

Starker uses his magic to float over a doll, giving it to Twilight. The mare blinks as she saw that it's of Bonnie the Bunny. The thing is cuter than the robot that tried to get at her last night.

The Mane Six and Spike heads out of Freddy's, with plans on coming back tomorrow. Rarity clears her throat, as she spoke, "Princess...with all due respect...HAVE YOU GONE CRAZY?!"

"Yeah, why would you want to come back here?" Pinkie asks Twilight in surprise.

"Girls, listen. Those robots are determined to come get me for some reason. So if we don't come back, you know what they would do?" Twilight ask her friends seriously. They pause and shake their heads 'no'. "They would try to escape and come after me! I don't want to feel responsible for any ponies or anything else being hurt or killed just to get me. No, there's something else going on here besides robots' mistakes that stuffed anyone into suits and it's time we find out what it is."

The Mane Five and Spike looks stunned. Twilight is crazy to wanting to come back after almost getting killed...but she's right. Those robots would wanna break out just to get at her...and there's something else going on at the restaurant. The mystery continues!

Chapter 3: Foxy Strikes!

Celestia was having tea in her study, looking over some books. She looks up and saw a sight that concerns her; Twilight, coming in and looking like she has been through a Hell known as Tartarus.

"Twilight," Celestia said gently as Twilight came over. The two lovers nuzzle one another. "Are you okay? How was your first night?"

"It's damnation, if you pardon the language." Twilight said to Celestia tiredly. "We have been through a Hell known as Freddy Fazbear's Pizza."

"Well, have tea with me, my love, and tell me."

The two Alicorns have tea together as Twilight explained the night, from Starker meeting, to the Phone Guy's call, to the close calls as well as the near death experience. Celestia's eyes widen as she explains that this has been going on for a few years now from what Starker has told her.

"Oh dear; you are lucky to come out of that one intact." Celestia said gently while putting sugar cubes in her drink.

"I know you probably want me to give up...but I can't. If I quit, those robots will try to break out of there and will go out to look for me...and may hurt innocent ponies while doing so!" Twilight explains in concern. "They want to kill me most of all, I don't know why yet. I can't quit now."

"I wasn't going to. There was a reason why I chose you for this besides the funding thing."

"There is? What?"

"This." Celestia said as she made two newspaper clippings fold over, putting them in front of Twilight. "Please read."

Twilight nods slowly, the reason has to be in here. Twilight begins reading the first headline...

"Foals vanish at local pizzeria - bodies not found"

Two local foals were reportedly lured into a back room during the late hours of operation at Freddy Fazbear's pizza on the night of June 26th. While video surveillance identified the stallion responsible and led to his capture the following morning, the foals themselves were never found and are presumed dead.

The Royal Guards think that the suspect dressed as a mascot to earn the foals' trust.

Twilight's eyes widen in horror after reading it. It got worse when she reads the next headline...

"Five foals now reported missing. Suspect convicted."

Five foals are now linked to the incident at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, where a stallion dressed as a cartoon mascot lured them into a back room.

While the suspect has been charged, the bodies themselves were never found.

Freddy Fazbear's Pizza has been fighting an uphill battle ever since to convince families to return to the pizzeria.

"It's a tragedy."

Twilight's memories snapped as she remembered that night at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza years ago when she was a filly. The mare snuck into the back room when a stallion in a Golden Freddy outfit lured those foals in there. She watched from hiding as the mascot appears to have a surprise for them. When he took out a knife...and...to her horror...he...he...

"Twilight; Twilight," Celestia exclaims, snapping Twilight out of it, making her scream in alarm.

"Oh! Celestia! Sorry, you were saying?" Twilight ask her love with a sheepish smile. Celestia gave a weary look to her.

"As you know, the suspect who was charged was captured, but we never found the foals' bodies. I suspected that they may be somewhere in the pizzeria."

"But didn't they change locations since then? The memory of the pizza place was...different from what I heard."

"Yes, yes, but we suspected that the bodies could be in the third location." Celestia explains with a sigh. She put a leg around Twilight, hugging while continuing, "Listen. The families of those foals had been devastated. They don't know what happens to their young ones. I want to find out where they are and put their worries to rest. If you wish, though, I could have someone else do the mission."

"No, I can do this. I will find those foals...and solve the mystery." Twilight said, squeaking a little. She has to go back to the nightmare known as Freddy's to find out the answer to the unsolved mystery that haunted families for years...

Celestia and Twilight smiles warmly to each other...then hugs while kissing each other on the lips; The purple Alicorn needs the comfort that she can before going back to Freddy's tonight.

---------------------

Although the Mane Five and Spike doesn't like the idea, they agree to go with Twilight for another time of "fun" at Freddy's. Starker has given them a key so they just let themselves in. They gave a look at Freddy, Bonnie and Chica, still in one place on the Stage. The ponies and Dragon shudder as they rush down the hall to the office.

"Well, the battery's recharged." Spike said, spotting the battery now recharged. "Let's hope it stays that way this time."

"I hope so too." Fluttershy meekly said as Twilight got in the seat. "So what the princess has to say?"

"Plenty; Years ago, a stallion in a Freddy mascot suit lured five foals into the backroom at this restaurant." Twilight explains sternly to her friends, making their eyes widen. "He has been caught but the bodies had never been found."

"Oooooh, so we're looking for bodies? Spoooooooky," Pinkie said with a happy squee.

"Pinkie, not now."

As they go on with the 2nd night, they see the Pink pony once more as she was sitting at a table watching the stage and tapping her hooves while waiting. Freddy was active lightly and sits as they were talking while she was eating a pizza

"I guess you were not joking but I nearly had that Alicorn in my grasp." Freddy remarks to Pinkamena with a grunt.

Pinkamena frowns as she spoke, "I noticed but still she was a little filly and yet you blame her; look you know and I know it was an imposter in a Freddy suit."

"You think I don't know that? We all do but yet she had no guts to do anything."

Pinkamena bangs on the table making him flinch as she says in a lower tone, "She was a little filly a little foal; what was a little unicorn going to do with a grown man with a KNIFE? SHE WOULD’VE BEEN DEAD LIKE THE OTHER FIVE!"

Freddy backs up a bit from the jolt of rage coming from her as he thinks and something clicks slightly recalling that she was a filly and might of not been able to do much magic but he shakes the thought away and says, "That might be but still we will get her and make her suffer and also sorry that we did not play hide and seek this time."

"It's ok, besides there's pretty much a lot of tense right now but still you should think about it over and maybe talk to her."

"Hmmmm...........................maybe I will think it over but for now."

She nods and is done as the pink pony gets up and heads off. Pinkamena said, "I know; see you next night."

Pinkamena then climbs up though a Vent as Freddy returns to his place and readies himself.

---------------------------------------------

Outside the restaurant, there was a storm cloud brewing nearby. Not a pleasant thing in the night where killer robots are haunting the place. Then suddenly without warning, a lightning bolt struck down and electrified an antenna off the building. From the aftershocks, the place shook as everyone seem frighten of what was going on. But unknown to them, the extra surge of electricity seem to course through the wire cables, and seem to reach a certain spot in Pirate Cove...where the broken Foxy was located. The energy surge from the storm zips and jolted its unmoving body as if nothing seem to have happened. But then something did happen...its optic eyes seem to glow again, it's metal fingers began to twitch, as it was seen...Foxy was....back online again!

Meanwhile, the Mane Six's group was still in the safe security room, trying to make sure everything was okay, that sudden shaking from being hit by lightning freaked them out.

"Okay, as if being in a place that wants to kill us and get back at Twilight wasn't enough," Rainbow Dash groans to say in seeing this was not a happy moment for them.

"What about Freddy's group?" Twilight asked with concerns, that distracted could have caused Freddy or the others to move about.

"I found them darling...and...they seem to be together in...Pirate Cove," Rarity spoke in checking the security cameras to find all three of the animatronic killers in one spot.

"Hugh? Isn't that where Foxy is?" Pinkie Pie pondered the thought of recalling who's there.

"Reckon so," Applejack nods off to agree there.

"But why there?" Spike asked in not following the subject.

The gang was curious and decided to watch carefully in what exactly were Freddy & his two pals up to. The ponies look at the image for Pirate Cove carefully.

Suddenly, Foxy peeks out and screeches madly, causing the girls and Spike to scream in terror. The big night has truly begun!

12:00 AM, 2nd Night

"That was intense!" Rainbow exclaims frantically as the ponies and Spike recovers from the mad incident. It's like Foxy wants to jump out of the image and strike at their souls.

As Twilight recover, the phone begins to ring. It must be another one of the Phone Guy's messages. And as usual, the answering machine picks it up.

"Uhh, hello; hello; uh, well, if you're hearing this and you made it to day two, uh, congrats!"

"YAY!! Good for us!!" Rainbow Sarcastically Shouted to Phone Guy even though she is scared.

"I-I won't talk quite as long this time since Freddy and his friends tend to become more active as the week progresses."

"Well, 'dat's just great..." Applejack groaned as she is still scared.

"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..."

"Uhh duh, you think?!" Pinkie said to the phone guy while she is being sarcastic and scared.

"Uh... Interestingly enough, Freddy himself doesn't come off stage very often. I heard he 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?"

"Huh, so Freddy doesn't come out in the day anymore? How's that possible..." Twilight said being confused and scared...though the mare knew the reason why, she hasn't gotten the full details yet.

"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. 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."

"Alright darling..." Rarity said to the Phone Guy being scared as the message continues.

"Also, check on the curtain in Pirate Cove from time to time. The character in there seems unique in that he becomes more active if the cameras remain off for long periods of time. I guess he doesn't like being watched. I don't know. Anyway, I'm sure you have everything under control! Uh, talk to you soon."

"Wait, come back!" Fluttershy attempted to call back to the Phone Guy but failed as the message ends.

"Oh dear, if this is like Markiplier, our butts are gonna be munched, and they're gonna shove us into teddy bear outfits, and they're gonna laugh..." Pinkie Pie said while being scared.

"HOW CAN YOU BE RANDOM AT A TIME LIKED THIS," Rainbow shouted to Pinkie while being scared.

"We got to get ready." Twilight said as she looks at the images. The next hunt has now begun.

The ponies prepared themselves, waiting for one of the animatronics to move. Soon, they noticed that Bonnie was no longer on stage.

Twilight checked the camera and sure enough, Bonnie was in the Backstage area. He glares at the camera as if saying "I know you're there."

Bonnie then smirked devilishly as he removed his head, showing his endoskeleton one, screeching madly at the camera.

Twilight screamed in fear at watching this.

"Change the channel, change the channel!" Pinkie exclaimed, forcing Twilight to change the channel. "Wow! I wonder why they didn't use that for the game but in the trailer?"

"Too scared to say you're random, Pinks." Rainbow said with a shiver.

Twilight looked at the camera, checking the Stage. Chica was gone now. She quickly checked the Dining Room. The chicken was there, looking around.

"I wonder what she's waiting for." Fluttershy said meekly.

"You know what's funny? Chica sounded like Twilight when she talks! I'm guessing the author got the idea of a fake movie page of Five Nights at Freddy's!" Pinkie explained happily, trying to brighten up the moment.

"Movie about 'dis; Yew nuts," Applejack asked Pinkie, who gave an innocent smile to her.

"Wait, where's Foxy?" Twilight asked of in not finding Foxy where they last saw him on camera.

"He was right there last I saw him." Spike pointed in where he last saw the unmoving fox.

"Turn fer a darn minute, an' look what happened." AJ rolled her eyes in seeing this ain't gonna be easy handling a fourth moving killer on their hooves.

"Found him! Wow, he's moving fast!" Pinkie Pie stated to say in finding Foxy, but he seem more zippy than the others of Freddy's gang.

"Wait, how fast?" Rainbow Dash raised an eyebrow in not liking the sounds of that.

"Down the hall corner leading to..." Pinkie Pie saw Foxy running down a hallway that seem to lead towards...an office area they are in. "US! On the left open door!" She yelped in terror of where Foxy is coming from.

"Oh my goodness, some pony shut it before..." Rarity yelped to say that they must act fast or...

Then, without warning, Foxy was soon heard screeching like a metallic monster to already reach the opening before anyone could shut the door on the left in time.

"Eeeeekkkk! HE'S HEREEEE!" Fluttershy screamed in terror that they are doomed now.

But then, just as Foxy stretched off to almost kill Fluttershy, his fast movement was stopped by...a rubber band? "Hugh! Waaaaughhh!" Then Foxy yelped in realizing what happened and was shot out of the room in the nick of time, too, where Rarity shut the door to keep the evil killer fox from coming at them.

"Wah...what happened?" Spike asked in not getting what just saved them.

"Silly, I put in a stretchy rubber-band, and if any meany jumps to attack us, they get shot back." Pinkie Pie happily explained how she did that little work.

"Pinkie, I don't know what we would do without your randomness." Twilight sighed in relief that her pink pony pal did something that saved them.

"But how in Equestria did Foxy move so much quicker than the others?" Rarity asked, puzzled in what was going on in how Foxy moved so fast all of a sudden.

"Right, Freddy an' them others were stocking real sneaky like not faster than a cheetah." AJ stated in thinking something wasn't right here.

"That surge of power we just felt, it must have gave him a boost. And if he or any of the others can get another jump boost from more lightning, they might become harder to locate." Twilight explained a theory in what maybe the reaction in how Foxy became so much more faster, a boost of lightning in the machine can make even old devices work more better efficient.

"Great and the Pegasus ponies just happen to be doing a full week of stormy weather all this week." Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes in seeing they got big trouble coming their way; which might make things harder every time these animatronics get extra juice to make them move faster than usual.

Rarity heard a growl and turned the lights on for the right door. There's Chica glaring while snapping, "Give us the princess."

"NEVER," Rarity exclaimed, closing the door. Rainbow quickly closed the left door in case Foxy recovered.

"Both doors secured." Rainbow said while checking on the power, "Though we lost a bit of power."

Pounding noises were heard, making the ponies yelped as Foxy was heard screeching, "Arrrr! We be needing 'dat princess an' we be cutting anypony's throat who get in our way!"

"What does y'all want with Twilight, ya monsters?!" Applejack shouted.

"'Dat be us to know and ye to never find out!" Foxy's voice growl.

The ponies shivered while Twilight sat in her chair. The gang waited a while before checking on Pirate's Cove. Foxy was back in there now.

"Why would they wanna hurt Twilight?" Fluttershy asked her friends in sadness.

"Come on. Practically every monster in Equestria wants a piece of the new princess." Spike commented. He then turned to Twilight in concern, "Not to scare you, of course, Twilight."

"This place was a place of fantasy and fun for foals." Twilight said with a shiver. "I wish I had a daughter so I can forbid her from coming here."

"What about Nyx?" Applejack reminds Twilight of her adopted daughter.

"Right, silly me. I can't believe I almost forgot her." Twilight said, calming down a bit. "By the way, Applejack, thanks for having Big Mac watch her while I am gone."

"No prob, Twi. Anythin' for our favorite filly," Applejack said.

Twilight checked the cameras then frowned a bit. Some of the cameras were disabled.

"Ugh, those stupid robots messed with some of the cameras." Twilight said with a groan.

"Maybe we could use a circuit breaker to get them moving." Spike said thoughtfully. "Is there a circuit breaker?"

Twilight checked the cameras, then pointed to a camera, "Well, there's a circuit breaker in the Broom Closet."

"Right, I will go out, flip the switches and be right back." Spike said, offering to help out.

"Spike, not a good idea," Rarity said to Spike in worry. "What if those things catch you in there?"

"I will run like a maniac." Spike said as he flipped the left door open and headed out. "Be right back."

"Spike, we don't wanna lose you." Fluttershy said fearfully.

"Relax. The least that can happen is the suit part, and I am too small to be crushed to death." Spike said with a laugh while leaving, taking a head speaker before leaving so that he can communicate if need be.

Twilight sighed. Spike was a brave, yet stupid Dragon sometimes.

----------------------

Spike was seen entering a room with controls that seem like an electric circuit. He blew his emerald flames to get some light in the room, nothing out of the ordinary. And he was being watched by a camera at this time by those keeping an eye on him.

"Wait, did something move?" Rarity asked in seeing from the camera system that flickered, and someone moved.

Spike was finally fixing the setup to where some power would work around the area in question and help keep everything running a little longer.

"Few...that should do it," Spike sighed to say in being done.

But then suddenly, as Spike shut the door, something was standing nearby in looking down at the Dragon; it was Bonnie the Bunny.

"SPIKE; WATCH OUT!" Pinkie Pie yelled from a voice com speaker that was heard that Spike wore and heard the message.

Spike suddenly looks slowly at what was near him and he looked like a deer frozen in the headlights. Then the creature screeched in, about to pounce.

"Waaahhh," Spike screamed to suddenly duck away from his attacker. Then in another defense, Spike blew his fire breath to keep the creature away.

"Spike...Spike! Respond!" Twilight was with the others, wondering if her assistant was safe.

Then a loud noise was heard as the mares screamed, but then when the steel door opened, Spike rushed in, looking all panicky.

"Hugh...hugh....did I lose it?" Spike asked from panting in wondering if he got whole was after him.

Then the group check the camera in seeing Spike's flames died out, but the only thing seen was apart of the animatonic creature's furry stuff burn.

"Spike, best we don't get our hopes up if we got one or not. Them things move an' vanish like ghosts." AJ issued to say this fact.

"They're not normal! They're ghosts! THEY'RE GHOSTS IN THE MACHINES!" Pinkie Pie screamed out in terror that what they got was something that ain't normal.

"Pull yourself together! We can't let them win this!" Rainbow Dash snaps in trying to keep the group focus.

"Win? I WANT TO SURVIVE RAINBOW DASH!" Rarity was clutching her friend in sheer terror, this was no game, they are being stalked by animatronics that have the urge...to kill and massacre them in horrors that was too cruel to discuss.

"What'll we do?!" Fluttershy cried.

Twilight peeked at the camera, checking out the Dining Room. Bonnie was in there, his fur burnt off, but he's okay, so to speak. The pony checked the Stage. Freddy's still there, but he's glaring at the camera, as if waiting for a mistake to happen.

Suddenly, the image went static...as a Puppet-like figure appeared, snarling at her. Twilight screamed and fell out of her chair.

"What's wrong, Twilight?" Pinkie asked Twilight.

"It's some sort of Puppet freak thing!" Twilight exclaimed in terror, pointing at the image. The other mares looked and saw...just the West Hall image. Nothing's there.

"You sure you saw a Puppet?" Spike asked Twilight curiously.

"I DON'T KNOW! Years ago, Freddy's used to have a creepy puppet figure at Prize Corner...but it was supposed to be scrapped along with the new bots!" Twilight exclaimed, shivering a bit.

"Well, if it's gone, how could it show up now?" Applejack asked in concern.

No one spotted an invisible hand pressing the button that opened the left door before disappearing. Rarity said, "Twilight, perhaps the nights are getting to you."

"Oh yes. Perhaps they are...maybe I am hallucinating." Twilight said with a sigh. She then looked concerned upon seeing that the left door was opened again. "Wait, wasn't that left door closed?"

"Well..." Fluttershy said in concern.

Suddenly, without warning, a familiar hook came from out of nowhere and grabbed Fluttershy by the mane, pinning her to the panel. Foxy appeared, screeching furiously.

"Let me go! Please!" Fluttershy cried fearfully.

"HEY BUDDY! LET HER GO OR ELSE!" Pinkie Pie snapped at the fox to let their pal go from his clutches.

"Or else what," Foxy snapped off in a menacing tone.

"THIS!" Then Pinkie Pie then grabbed a bucket of water from out of nowhere, and splashed it right onto the bot.

"Geg-i-Grrooo-Graaarurghhhh," Then the animatronic fox was screeching out while short-circuiting at the time.

"Pinkie; was that even wise?" Rarity asked her friend if that was even the smartest thing to do.

"Won't the water cause this thing to get more out of control?" Rainbow Dash stated in thinking that this will make things worse with a robot more out of control.

"Fer-get dat; Kick him out!" AJ snapped to say that they just gotta get this thing out of their space.

Then Applejack lasso'd Foxy by his hand and then swung him right out the right door before Spike quickly push the button to seal it shut. There were banging sounds and more screeching noises with flashy sparks outside a window view, but everyone seem to be shaking from having escaped that close calling.

"Are you okay Fluttershy?" Twilight check her friend if she was not hurt after being in danger like that.

"Gulp...I'll be fine...I think. How much more time is left?" Fluttershy lightly swallowed hard before asking how long till it's six in the morning.

"It's three, we got 3 hours left."

"Oh dear. How could anything so fun and fantasy given to foals be so evil at night?"

Twilight hesitates, recalling what happened in the Backstage years ago as a filly...as well as that dark Puppet that appeared. The mare answers, "I wish I can answer you Fluttershy, I truly do."

---------------------

The ponies spend a few more hours dealing with the robots. They kept an eye on Foxy who would leave Pirate's Cove then made sure to close the door on him. Often, they kept their eyes on Bonnie or Chica...but mostly Freddy. Twilight suspects that the main mascot of the group is the most dangerous of them all.

Twilight looks at the camera and yelps as the Puppet thing appear, giving her a nasty look. The Alicorn rub her eyes and looks again. It's gone.

"That Puppet...why does it keep appearing so," Twilight whispered to herself in worry. That thing acted like...it was behind what's going on tonight; But how, "Say, who's watching the door?"

"I think it was Rainbow Dash's turn and..." Rarity said then she yelps as a familiar bunny suddenly came into the office, "EEEK! BONNIE!"

"Gotcha now," Bonnie declared in having the gang now.

"No you don't!" Pinkie Pie spoke off to say.

"Yes I do! I got you!" Bonnie) stated again to make it clear.

"No you don't!" Pinkie Pie objected to say this one didn't have them.

"Yes I do!" Bonnie stated that he has them.

"No you don't!" Pinkie Pie stated off that this one didn't.

"Yes I do!" Bonnie stated that he has them again.

"No you don't!" Pinkie Pie stated off that this one didn't have them.

"Yes I do!" Bonnie stated that he has them.

"Yes you do!" Pinkie Pie stated off that this claim with a reverse twist.

"No I don't!" Bonnie proclaimed out this matter without realizing a mistake.

"Yes you do! Cause you're in our office and at your mercy!" Pinkie Pie declared this off to say this final claim.

"No I don't! I do NOT got you! And to prove it, I'm leaving!" Bonnie issued off to say this while turning away here to go out the door.

"I can't believe that actual worked." Rainbow Dash said off in doubt of what happened.

"In truth, don't think it was supposed ta." AJ shook her head to say this.

"Won't work on me," Chica is heard yelling from the right door. Spike turns on the lights for that door, showing the chicken screeching.

"Not tonight!" Spike exclaims as he pushes the lights, shutting Chica off. "Quick, what time is it, Twilight?"

"Five AM.' Twilight said, checking the time. "We got one more hour left. We must hang in there..."

"Wait, is that Freddy" Pinkie ask, noticing the cameras as she saw Freddy going down the West Hall. "Hey! He isn't supposed to do that until the lights are off. The bear is breaking the rules of the video game!"

"Pinkie; now is not the time to be random!" Rainbow exclaims frantically.

"What will we do now?" Fluttershy ask frantically. "Should we close the door?"

"Not sure." Twilight yelps as she checks the generator. "We are almost to the last of our power."

"No worries. I got another idea to give us more time." Rainbow explains to Twilight with a thoughtful look on her face. Yes! It could work!

Just as it looks like Freddy was slowly about to come into the room and get to Twilight, Rainbow instantly flew up to the guy's face which made the others yelp worry in what the reckless Pegasus was gonna do.

"Must....Kill...." Freddy spoke in about to kill the Pegasus until...

"Hey buddy, if you wanna kill someone, try talking to your buddies. I heard they are cheating you behind your back." Rainbow Dash spoke slyly in addressing the manner to tell this bear costume killer about what was happening behind his back.

"Hmmm," Freddy raised an eyebrow in being puzzled, what were his animatronic buddies doing that they are cheating behind his back?

"Listen, I heard one of them was cheating with your wife while you are not looking. In fact, we just saw one of them doing it right now." Rainbow Dash came near the guy's ear in issuing this fact that Freddy's wife was having an affair with one of his buddies.

"WHAAAAAT," Freddy yelled out in his eyes gone wide in being completely off guard by the news, "Why those no good dirty....HOW DARRRRE THEY CHEAT WITH MY WIFE! I'LL RIIIIPE THEM APAARRRTTT!" He yelled out in looking really angry, as he seems to blow steam from his ears in showing his unleashed fury.

Soon Freddy was turning away from the gang that sigh in relief, the killer bot was leaving them alone to handle other issues much to not being aware of having been tricked.

"Rainbow, what was that about?" Rarity asked her friend in what Rainbow Dash did.

"Yeah, everyone knows Freddy isn't married. Otherwise, we would have seen her in this pizza restaurant." Pinkie Pie raised an eyebrow in thinking that Freddy isn't married, they would have told the kids if he was or at least see his wife.

"You know it, I know it, we all know it...but he sure doesn't know it." Rainbow Dash slyly spoke in saying she fooled Freddy to leave with that idea that his wife was cheating on him was all make-believe.

"Oh my, will it keep them busy?" Fluttershy asked in concern now if that can by them enough time.

"Hopefully for the next fifteen seconds." Spike spoke to say in seeing that it was 5:59 AM, and they have only the last seconds remaining. "Ten seconds and counting...." He was counting down when...

"WAIT A MINUTE! WHAT KINDA GAME ARE YOU PLAYING ME FOR," Freddy's voice was heard over the hallway in having learn that he was easily duped.

Soon a loud roar was heard that echo in the restaurant that made the gang yelp with fear. And from the security cameras, they find Freddy was going all feral mode in chasing across the other rooms, coming at where the gang are at. They seem worry, will they make it in time, the door to keep shut was now close, but for how long? As some bear claws press down to grasp below, and was...trying to left the door open much to everyone's shock.

"Five...Four...Three...Two..." Spike was counting down the last numbers...

Then Freddy was seen having pushed the shut door up, and looked really ticked off with glowing red eyes, and snarling gritted teeth, as he let off a feral roar at the group.

"Waaaaaaughhhhh," The mares huddle together to scream in seeing they are about to die from upsetting Freddy with a lie about a make-believe wife; Can't this guy even take a little joke, apparently not and it will be their last.

Then without warning, that familiar bell ring came from out of nowhere, followed by foals cheering. This caused Freddy to cease his feral action to suddenly freeze and for the Mane Six to slowly open their eyes in wondering...if they are safe now.

"One...Its 6 am," Spike spoke off in issuing the fact of what time it was, they made it to the safety hour when the nightmare would be over.

With that known, Freddy's programming kicks in that he slowly begins to get up straight and moves away from the gang to return to the stage. Much of the gang sighs in relief, somehow, they have now made it through another night.

"Rainbow...good one," Applejack said, kissing her love on the cheek. Rainbow chuckles faintly then just fainted.

-----------

"A wife, huh," Starker laughs as the Mane Six and Spike told him what happened. "Now that is one idea that we should've tried...in fact, if I would've made Freddy a wife, he wouldn't be the only bear in here."

"Wait, hang on. Did you make those things?" Twilight ask Starker while looking at the new stuffed doll that Starker gave her: a toy plush of Chica. Only Freddy left to get.

"Yep. I made Freddy and them all. I am practically their dad, which is one of the reasons I barely managed for Foxy to be around after the Bite of '87. Oh, that poor foal..."

"I thought you said that you didn't know who was bitten back then." Spike said, recalling what Starker said.

"Yeah, I know, but I made some phone calls...spoke to the princess through mail. According to me, the victim was a young foal named Aurora Star." Starker said, recalling the name of the foal. "I didn't know all the details yet."

"I think....I should give her a visit." Twilight said thoughtfully. "Since she survived having the frontal lobe bitten off, I may as well get the details."

"Do we have to come here another night?" Rarity asks Twilight frustrated. "I don't know if I could take that."

"Neither do I...but the mysteries around this place must be answered...Starker? Didn't you had a Puppet..."

"You mean the Marionette?" Starker ask Twilight puzzled. "We threw him out right after the second closing. We hadn't seen that thing since. Why?"

"Just thought I asked." Twilight said with a shiver, her memories are still on...that Marionette thing...

---------------------------

The Mane Six and Spike left to get some rest for the third night. As Starker went into the back to check to make sure that his family the robots didn't break anything, he fails to see a familiar Marionette like figure appearing, floating around and glaring at the robots.

"My dear friends...you were robbed of your revenge last night." Marionette said to the robots, dusting Freddy off. "But tonight....will be the last night. You will be more better, my friends, I promise you that...and I think the new princess will meet a...golden surprise from her past."

Marionette chuckles quietly as he disappears from sight. Freddy narrows his eyes, clutching his microphone tightly....

Chapter 4: The Golden Terror

It was later that day around noon. Twilight's friends and Spike need some relaxation after a terrible confrontation with Freddy and his pals last night. So far, no one had gotten closer to revealing what had happened to the missing five foals...and why Twilight keep seeing a Marionette that seems to have been scrapped years ago.

Twilight right now is on an investigation that could be connected to this case. The princess managed to get help from some of the Royal Guards who told her the address of Aurora Star, who was said to be the victim of Bite of '87. If the Alicorn figured out the story, she may be one step closer to figuring out the mystery.

'Well, this is the place.' Twilight thought as she arrives at a house in a lower part of Canterlot.

Twilight knocks on the door of the house. After waiting a while, it opens up to reveal a green unicorn mare with a long green mane, dark green eyes, a short green tail and a jewel cutie mark. She is wearing a necklace of some sort around her neck.

"Yes, may I help you?" The mare asks Twilight in concern.

"Yes, my name is Princess Twilight Sparkle." Twilight said. Hearing that made the mare gasps and bow to her.

"Oh, Princess Twilight Sparkle! I've heard all about you and your exploits. My name is Sapphire Locket. What brings you to my humble home?"

"Yes. I wanted to talk you about an incident...involving your sister Aurora Star...at a place called Freddy Fazbear's Pizza."

Hearing that made Sapphire gasp. She stood up, looking up before backing up into the home. It's seems that the mention of the incident was a trigger word of sorts that upset her.

"Please...don't ask me or my family. You wouldn't believe how many reporters or guards came to our home in the past, asking us about that incident. My sister became a media freakshow! We are happy that things died down over time!" Sapphire Locket pleads in horror. She is close to closing the door in Twilight's place. "Please, don't ask about that and leave."

Sapphire Locket is closing the door...but Twilight stops it with her magic, giving a serious look to her while saying, "Please...I promise. I want to know what happened on that day, the Incident Bite. My friends and I are involved in an unsolved mystery involving Freddy's, working the night shift so to speak. Please, miss Sapphire Locket? If you can help us, you can help others."

Sapphire Locket pauses in hesitation. She doesn't want her little sister to be involved with Freddy's ever again...not since the incident. But...the new princess request help in finding out some answers to an unsolved mystery...and if it could help avenge the bite that Aurora Star has gone through.

"Come in." Sapphire Locket said with a nod. Twilight came into the home and follows the mare down a hallway. "Listen, what am I about to show you...it isn't a pretty sight. So please, don't stare or do anything else...offensive."

Twilight nods as if promising to do so. Sapphire Locket then opens a door to a room and allows the princess in. The Alicorn gasps, though doing so quietly.

Sitting in front of a window is a light green mare with a short blue mane and a short blue tail. She has pink eyes and is wearing a lavender bow on her head. But what's sad is that Twilight notices that she has no cutie mark. Sapphire Locket is right, she isn't a pretty sight.

Aurora Star turns, staring at the two as if they are new to her. The mare asks in a dull tone of voice, "Hello, may I help you two? I don't think we know each other."

"Aurora, it's me, Sapphire Locket, your sister." Sapphire Locket explains as if what her sister said is breaking her heart. Twilight can see from the tears forming from her eye. "We had been taking care of you, mostly me."

"I got a sister?"

"Sigh. See what I mean? Ever since the Incident Bite...my sister wasn't the same. She survived but became slightly brain dead and forget stuff. Why, Aurora Star would forget her name and we had to keep reminding her."

"Aurora Star...what a weird name," Aurora said dully. Sapphire Locket was right; she did forget her own name.

"Miss Locket, can you tell me what happened?" Twilight ask Sapphire Locket. Hearing that request made the mare hesitate, "I know it's difficult, but try to tell me."

Sapphire Locket gulps as she stutters, trying to speak, "It was years ago when my sister was a little filly. My parents and I made preparations for her birthday and so we decided to surprise her by having it at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. It was the business's last day for a while before closing because of an incident that happened earlier that week."

"You mean the Missing Foals Incident?" Twilight ask Sapphire Locket, making the mare's eyes widen as she gasps. "Princess Celestia told me all about it. Please continue..."

"Right. I was with my mother and Aurora when one of Freddy's shows started...things were doing fine..."

------------------------

The birthday was in full swing. The foals are having fun, playing games, eating pizza and listening to Freddy and his pals played. What's interesting is that these guys aren't the new one animatronics. Nope. Those were since been scrapped. These are the old animatronics. Starker has managed to done his work well in fixing them up just for the birthday, the last day of operation before Freddy Fazbear's Pizza would close for a while.

Freddy is speaking into the mike, laughing as he speaks into the mike, even though he is glitching a bit, "He-ey-ey all you pirate fans! Head on down-on down-down-down-down to the Pirate Cove, because the shows about to star-ar-art! It’s our good 'ol pal, Foxy!" The robotic bear pauses as if waiting for a certain fox to appear. "Foxyyyy... ""

Behind the curtains of Pirate's Cove, which has been put up just for him, Foxxy stood there, hesitating and looking...scared. As he does, dark thoughts appear to be in head by a dark voice, ("Never accept me...")

"I know he's around here somewhere!"

("Always alone...")

"Ma-ay-aybe we need to call him out!" Freddy suggests to the crowd happily, making the kids cheer on. "Foxy!"

Foxy continues hesitating to come out, looking a bit upset as dark thoughts appear in his head, making him smirk wickedly, ("Not one of them...")

"Help me out kids; Fo-o-oxy!"

("EAT THEM...")

"Last time kids, nice and loooooud! Hehehe- so we can get him out here!" Freddy suggests to the foals. He, with the foals joining in, calls out for the robotic fox to come out, "Foxy!"

Soon Foxy came out, smiling to the crowd; Despite Starker's repairs, he didn't have time to finish work on the pirate fox. But the kids still love him regardless so the employee hopes afterward to get Foxy fixed once he has time to do so. The animatronics were a best way to introduce the foals to Freddy's once it reopens again after everything dies down.

"Yar me mateys; It’s me Foxy, and welcome-welcome-welcome to the Pirate's Cove! Freddy best be gettin back to the stage, or I'll be for-or-orced to (GUT THE PIG) - for-or-orced to make him walk the plank!" Foxy laughs, demanding to Freddy (though he added a dark part as if something is possessing him to say so) to get back on the stage. This is his show now.

"HeheheheEEEEE- hehehehe! Have fun kids! And let’s kill-kill-kill-kill them! - Keeeeep ourselves safe when exploring Pirate C-c-c-cove," Freddy laughs happily. If anyone heard the "kill" part, they paid it no notice; probably part of the glitching that's been happening lately. Starker plan on working on that problem during the closing times.

"Yarharharharharhaaarharhar; you best be gettin back to the st-st-stage land-lubber! Because these little ones are now part...of the pirate's cre-crew." Foxxy laughs eagerly. He nods to the foals who gathered around, including a young Aurora Star who is up front with her mother and sister Sapphire Locket. "When in the Pirate Cove, remember to adventure safe kiddies! And nOOOOOO running around the cove; Or else yeeee be- (Lost forever...) - ye be-be-be walking the plank!"

Foxxy laughs some more, cheering on to the foals while the dark thoughts and such keep remembering, "Ay is swash buUUcklin adventures ye be seekin la-la-lads? Or is it that- (I don't belong here...) or-or-or-or is it that yer not akin to the seven seas? All pirates gimme an ar- an ar- and ar- an arrr! (Please help me...) Ahharharharhaaaar- Arrrrrg!"

Foxy grinned, trying to keep himself from falling apart or worst. What had happened really affected him big time. He spoke, "I be seein ya already walkin' up-up-up with yer pizza in hand, aaaand yerrrr- (Innocence gone...) - yer s-s-s-odie-pops like proper sea-pirates! And like proper sea pirates ddddo- We'll be having ourselves a sea-shanty! Ohhhhh~"

Aurora Star giggles happily as she look at Foxy, speaking to her mother who is speaking looking at some sort of new device she is levitating with her magic, "Mommy, mommy, look! The fox is weird; what happened to the legs on it mom?"

"Thaaat's nice dear...don't climb on it..." Aurora Star's mother said bored.

Sapphire Locket notices that Aurora Star is climbing up on stage. She spoke up, "Aurora? I don't think we're allowed to come up there."

"I'm fine, Sapphire!" Aurora Star giggles as she looks at Foxy who continues singing, though still glitching and twitching. "It has a hook for a hand, look at the hook mom!"

The day shift security guard, a green male Pegasus in an uniform, hat and badge, a short blue mane and tail, with a cutie mark that is a red shield with the symbol of the sun, named Jeremy Hoofsphere, came over, looking concerned as he spoke up, "Little filly sweetie, you can't get that close to Foxy... it’s not uh... you really shouldn't be up there-"

"You're not my mom, you can't tell me what to do!"

"Aurora Star, you may want to listen to him." Sapphire Locket said in concern. She notices that Foxy is getting too close with those teeth of his. "You could get into trouble."

"I'm fine, Sapphire Locket. Foxy isn't hurting anyone." Aurora Star said to her sister with a frown. Why must Sapphire Locket always tell her what to do?

'Oh, little filly, you had no idea.' Jeremy thought, looking concerned at Foxy. He remembers his...close confrontations with him and the rest of the animatronics. The Phone Guy told him to keep the foals safe and keep them from getting hurt. Turning to the mother, Jeremy spoke, "Uh- Ma'am, please ask your daughter to get off the stage-"

"Shes not hurting anyone! Let her play with the fox if she wants to play with the fox." The mother said with an irritated sigh.

Jeremy yelps a bit as he turns to the stage. Aurora Star is looking up into Foxy's mouth. If the filly knows better, she should get off the stage or else something terrible will happen!

Foxy is about to do something terrible as he appears to glaring at Jeremy, getting close to Aurora Star while growling in a dark thought, ("Not in control!")

"Mom! Look at his funny mouth- it’s so stupid looking!" Aurora Star giggles happily as she got too close towards the mouth, wanting a closer look at Foxy's teeth. The filly doesn't know it but that will be the last mistake she made ever made...in sanity.

("NOT IN CONTROL-")

"Hahaha!-"

Jeremy gasps as Foxy's mouth is right near the head. The Pegasus was prepared to fly to the stage...but then a chomping noise is heard, getting the attention of everyone, especially the other robots. Soon, ponies, both customers and staff members especially the horrified Jeremy, gasps in shock and horror as Aurora Star fell to the stage floor of Pirate's Cove...with her frontal lobe ripped off. What flesh came from it is inside Foxy's mouth who glares as if realizing his big mistake. It was too late.

Screams are heard as ponies in a panic run away, fleeing the restaurant. Freddy, Bonnie and Chica came over, looking stunned at Foxy who opens his mouth in horror, a few blood and flesh from where he bit Aurora Star is still in his mouth...the incident will be known and remembered throughout the years.

"Oh Celestia..Oh my Celestia," Jeremy cries out in horror and regret as he picks up the unconscious Aurora Star. The mother and Sapphire Locket are horrified as they look at the bitten filly. She's alive but the Pegasus failed to save her...the animatronic had attacked an innocent bystander. "Foxy, what had you done?"

And in Prize Corner, a familiar Marionette is there, resting as if it's watching the whole scene...and smirking wickedly...

------------------------

Once the story is over, Twilight is horrified and stunned as she looks at Aurora Star. The mare did saw a scar where her frontal lobe was bitten off now.

"As you know, my sister survived that attack...but is forever almost brain dead." Sapphire Locket explains, tears in her eyes. "We never set hoof in Freddy's after that, which make us glad when they closed down. We were upset when they reopened the third time...and protest the restaurant for what that pirate fox did to Aurora Star. I will be glad when they closed again."

"Sapphire, I'm sorry." Twilight said gently as she pats the mare on the back. "I promised, I will avenge what happened to Aurora Star."

"Yeah...I wish for that to happen...please, solve that mystery...don't let my sister or any other missing foals suffer any further..."

---------------------

It was after dark as the Mane Six and Spike returns to Freddy's around 11:45. The moment they arrived, the seven didn't hesitate to head on to the office quickly. They knew Freddy and his pals would come after them once midnight strikes.

"Oh dear, is that what happened?" Fluttershy ask Twilight sadly. The Alicorn had told her friends the story of the Bite of '87 on the way over here. "Poor Aurora Star..."

"I know. I wonder what caused Foxy to attack her like that." Rarity said in agreement.

"Simple. He was glitching and broken down." Rainbow remarks with a shrug. "Can you blame him or her though?"

"There must be another reason...we must continue staying here to find out the mystery." Twilight said in determination. The Mane Five and Spike hesitates but knew that the princess is right.

As Twilight and her group check the security cameras before the midnight hour comes; they check the stage where Freddy's group is. Good news, they are still there, but....something was off, and that is...THEY ARE CHAINED, BOLTED TO THE GROUND & IRON BARS ARE COVERING THEIR BODIES!

"What the....who did that?" Twilight asked off in who made the creatures be chained up.

"No need to thank me Twilight." Rainbow Dash smiled proudly at her work.

"You did that Rainbow?" Rarity raised an eyebrow in hearing this?

"Yep! I figure that if killer robots were chained up, then they can't move or kill us." Rainbow Dash bragged out in thinking up the idea.

"Oh, that does sound like a nice plan." Fluttershy slowly spoke in liking that idea.

"Hey, it's the midnight hour!" Pinkie spoke in seeing it's reaching the moment the animatronic killer bots move.

Soon as Pinkie Pie said that, everyone's eyes are focused in watching Freddy's gang. And just like the last night...they move on their own. Their red optic eyes turn to the camera as if seeing they are watched. But as they seem to want to move, they appeared...unable to.

"Heh, maybe tonight, we can rest easy." AJ sigh off with relief in seeing they might be safe tonight.

"Told yah, those are some strong chains that would even hold an adult Dragon; No way can they get..." Rainbow Dash was speaking in sounding cocky, those killer bots are no way gonna break out of her tied up set...

Just then, the camera shows Freddy's gang breaking off the tough chains with unheard of strength. Then they rise up their feet from being bolted to the ground up while snapping the bars. And then they grasp to push the heavy tons of iron bars away from their bodies. And then they stare up with glaring red eyes as they snarl before the camera fizzled out and they were all gone.

"Those off,” Rainbow Dash finished her sentence while she and everyone seem to be on the wide-eye panic train; Freddy and the gang are loose and after them.

"Uh, they got out. And they aren't in the room." Spike pointed with a nervous face in what happened.

"But how; I mean, can animatronics be that strong, they are just restaurant robots, not military soldiers, right?" Rarity asked in feeling like this was becoming too concerning, these robots aren't normal for unknown reasons.

"Ugh, look at this. This says their animatronic bodies are made to even break Dragon proof chains." Twilight groans to find a manual that tells about Freddy & the gang of being robots, and how their basic structure says they ARE strong enough to break out of chains.

"Whoever built them should have thought 'dis over!" AJ mops to say this in a dry attitude.

"It was Starker, AJ, remember?"

"Shoot. But still!"

"Great, and I blew Twilight's princess dough on them too." Rainbow Dash sighs to say this in seeing this really was a waste of money.

"YOU WHAT; Rainbow, I had plans to use that money responsibly!" Twilight shouted off in hearing that, her friend spent her money without telling or asking her.

"Was it another lovey-dobey gift to Celestia?" Pinkie Pie asked off in pondering the question which made Twilight blush in being exposed.

"Um, guys....look at this." Fluttershy pointed in seeing something that seem to earn their upmost attention and to stop their squabbling.

As the next night is about to start, Pinkamena is sitting down at the stage waiting as Freddy lightly walks to her but notices she looks angry and is holding her blade.

"Um you ok little pony well.............look they survived again and also I have thought hard about what you said." Freddy said Pinkamena in concern.

Pinkamena swipes at him and he backs up as she says, "Back off! I know who you following, you are following him."

"Hay we do not need to follow Marionette if we don't want to!"

"I never said who you were following"

Freddy is lightly stunned, having ran into that. He sighs and says, "Look even if we follow him, I thought real hard on what you said and........well if they make it to the fifth night or maybe the six or Seventh night we will talk with them."

Pinkamena calms and smiles giving him a hug as it surprise him. She says, "I knew that the kind loving bear we all love is still around; even if many might be scared of you and your friends, we all have a common thing, we all have a monster in us but that does not mean we need to act like one." He sparks slightly and as if by instinct, his arm extends and he hugs her back. She says, "Well I guess I will stay here."

"Why's that?"

"Somepony needs to deal with the puppet and I know how."

The two breaks the hug and she pulls out a music box that is well known from the other place. Freddy blinks as he spoke, "It's a music box."

"That might be but it is the only thing that keeps him at bay; well see you later Freddy." Pinkamena said with a light giggle.

Pinkamena heads off as she climbs into the vent. Freddy heads back onto the stage as he looks at Bonnie and Chica and the look back at him and he looks at Pirate Cove, looking at Foxy as he looks back at him. They will be ready for the third night.

The Mane Six and Spike watch on from the office, looking bewildered. Spike asks, "Did that pony...just hug Freddy?"

"Does she know something we don't?" Fluttershy ask meekly, still scared.

"I don't know." Twilight said in hesitation. Perhaps there is something about the robots that no pony knew. It makes the princess rethink her decision on not telling anypony what she saw in the Backstage Area...years ago...

Then without warning, loud thunder storms happened and flashes of lightning came and struck the restaurant's antenna. The shock causes everyone to scream from that impact. But the strong surge of electricity flow into Freddy, Chica, Bonnie, and even Foxy as they felt the voltage spark their bodies. But when it was over, their eyes turn red as they suddenly felt a boost of energy in their circuitry.

Meanwhile, back in the office area, Twilight and her friends were getting over another event from that burst of lighting that hit the building.

"Man, we're gonna have to deal with this weather every night." Rainbow Dash groans in feeling she should have told the weather ponies to not do this, but....they need storms; go figure.

"Hey guys, you should see this. They've gone up." Pinkie Pie spoke off in noticing something on the office table.

"Who's gone up Pinkie?" AJ raised an eyebrow in hearing what the pink pony said.

"Freddy and his crew; I found this monitor read-out device and it's supposed to tell us what Active Setting they are on." Pinkie Pie explained to say this in telling the matter of what happen to Freddy's group; there was a box that showed the animatronics and shows from an computer screen whose name appears and of what level they are on.

"Wait, they have an active setting? For what," Rarity asked off in not getting this.

"For partying, of course; But since they are kinda wonky, maybe this makes them be more active when they are moving and such." Pinkie Pie exclaimed to say this in having to make one guess before the craziness happened.

"Um, so then...what does it say?" Fluttershy asked a bit nervous in not knowing if she wants to know this or not.

"This..." Pinkie Pie showed her friends of what active setting the animatronics are shown to be in their performance: Freddy is Level 9, Chica is Level 8, Bonnie is Level 8 & Foxy is Level 9. "Somehow that next surge of lightning double their Levels when we last handle them." She stated in seeing the animatronics have gone up more than before.

"Wait! Just how many levels can they go up?" Spike asked in not liking the sounds of this.

"1 to 20, from what it says. And if they reach 20, then they are just about almost-impossible to predict." Pinkie Pie pointed out how far high the robots can go.

"Pinkie.....we have to lower those levels, the first two nights were hard and if they keep getting stronger and faster, we won't live the next few nights!" Twilight grasp her friend in asking if they can lower their odds in facing harder costume killer robots for the next five nights.

"Well I can't help you there; this is a readout machine, not a remote machine. Even if we set them to Level 1 the first morning when they aren't moving, something raises them up, even the lightning helps them out?" Pinkie Pie sadly stated this off in knowing that no matter what, each night will become harder and harder for them to survive through.

"This seems bad Twilight, we only made it two nights, and when Foxy came back online, he moved faster than the others did the first night." Spike grip his claws to his teeth in feeling worried, if these robots keep getting stronger, they may just catch them.

"We're gonna need to be very careful everypony, no matter what, we have to keep our eyes open, try to conserve power and anything else to not be caught off guard." Twilight stated this in trying to be brave and determine, they have to survive this hardship; if not...then it will be over.

The others lightly nod, and they get to their stations while hoping to get by their third night here. May Celestia protect their souls, or something like that for their prayers to be heard....

12:00 AM, 3rd Night

Suddenly the phone rings, getting the seven's attention. It's the Phone Guy, most likely. They waited until the answering machine picks it up, keeping their eye on the monitor for any movement.

''Hello, hello; Hey you're doing great! Most people don’t last this long. I mean, you know, they usually move on to other things by now. I'm not implying that they died. Th-th-that’s not what I meant. Uh, anyway I better not take up too much of your time. Things start getting real tonight."

"I bet." Spike said with a gulp. The ponies got a bad feeling that they knew what the Phone Guy meant: the previous security guards must've been killed! It's the only logical explanation!

"Uh... Hey, listen, I had an idea: if you happen to get caught and want to avoid getting stuffed into a Freddy suit, uhh, try playing dead! You know, go limp. Then there's a chance that, uh, maybe they’ll think that you're an empty costume instead."

"Hmmm, that trick may work." Rainbow said thoughtfully. Maybe if the ponies and Spike played dead, Freddy and his pals would think they are empty costumes and would leave them alone.

"Yeah, but would it even work," Rarity ask with a serious look on her face.

"Hey, it works on real bears, right?" Pinkie asks with a hopeful grin on her face.

"Then again if they think you're an empty costume, they might try to... stuff a metal skeleton into you. I wonder how that would work."

"Eep," Fluttershy said scared. Well, so much for that idea!

"Yeah, never mind, scratch that. It's best just not to get caught. Um... Ok, I'll leave you to it. See you on the flip side."

The seven hear the answering machine clicking, meaning that the recording is over. They will need some luck to survive the third night!

Soon, the group had started their next night of monitoring the activities, very nervous of how hard it was becoming.

Twilight checked on the Stage Area. Both Bonnie and Chica were gone. She checked the Dining Room. Bonnie's in there; Now she check the Restrooms where Chica was at, twitching a bit.

"Well, the night has begun." Twilight said with a sigh.

Spike checked the camera for Pirate's Cove. The curtain was closed, Foxy was still in there, though he appears to be humming some sort of tune.

"I wonder what he's humming." Fluttershy said curiously though a bit frightful.

"I don't think we should find out." Rarity replied nervously.

Evil laughter of Freddy's was heard. Pinkie shuddered as she said, "Freddy is off the stage. When he laughs like that...it's kinda creepy."

Twilight checked the camera again. Pinkie's right. Freddy was now off the stage; Looks like he decided to begin his big hunt. The mare checked the Dining Area. Bonnie's gone, but Freddy was there.

"Where are you, Bonnie?" Twilight mumbled as she checked the camera. Sure enough, there's Bonnie in the Broom Closet again. "Well, Bonnie is in the closet again."

"But what if he teleports to the West Hall," Fluttershy asked her friend quietly.

"Never fear, I brought this to help cover the doors!" Pinkie Pie came over to show something to help the gang out; they looked like their defensive shutter doors, but were not.

"Pinkie, those are just wooden doors painted over to look like steel door shutters." Rainbow Dash narrowed her eyes in stating what her friend only did.

"Well, it's to conserve energy, right? Also, they come with barricade locks on the side of the wall to hold back attackers." Pinkie Pie explained how they could be more protective against their attackers.

"Well, suppose it'll have 'ta do." Applejack sighed in feeling they may as well try this.

Soon, the mares and Spike quickly put in the Fake Steel Shutter Doors over the real ones from left and right to jam them good and tight. And then they nailed in some sliding lock pads where they slide in four wooden boards from the lock pads on the walls to the Fake Steel Shutter Doors, increasing their defense to keep anything from coming in or going out, but mostly the former.

"Maybe this will work darlings. At least now we can save on energy." Rarity spoke with a smile in thinking they could feel safe now.

"Oh yes, that would be good to know." Fluttershy nodded in thinking that would be a good idea.

"Let’s just hope Freddy and his group think they are real and won't try to come in." Spike stated to say in hoping the killer bots don't second guess what they did.

"Let's check on them right now." Twilight insisted in what they should do now.

"I got a bad feeling about this..." Rainbow said nervously.

The ponies checked on the image for Pirate's Cove. They saw a sign that said "It's me" on it. Foxy's out!

Foxy ran down the hall of the West Hall then broke open a door. He peeks in, snarling, "Heeeeeere's Foxy!" The fox however looked around and saw...an empty room. "D'OH!"

Foxy took his head out and ran down to another door, breaking it open, peeking in while yelling, "David Lettercolt!"

"Hi, Davey; I'm Bonnie." Bonnie said, waving to Foxy from inside the Broom Closet that he broke into.

"D'OH!" Foxy yelled out angrily once more. Wrong room again! The pirate fox removes his head and goes to the door, then break through the real doors, peeking in while holding a tickling watch. "I'm Mike Wallace, I'm Morley Safer, and I'm Ed Bradley; All this and Andy Rooney tonight on '60 Minutes'!"

The ponies inside the room screamed in alarm from inside the security room. The Fake Doors weren't enough to keep out Foxy! He grabbed Spike and pulled him out of the room.

"Hey, get your hook away from my assistant!" Twilight yelled out, moving the Fake Door aside as she ran out of the room with her friends following.

"We got you now!" Freddy yelled out evilly as he, Bonnie and Chica appeared. Looks like the commotion was enough for the robots to break their routine and go in for the kill.

"And now, little Twilight, time we discuss the Missing Foal Incident of years ago!" Chica exclaimed madly, making Twilight sweat.

"I don't know what you want with us, but please leave us alone!" Fluttershy cried.

"Not yet. First, we will make your princess watch us stuff you all into suits like she failed to help us when she had the chance!" Freddy exclaimed madly.

"EAT CHEESE!" Pinkie Pie shouted off to hold up a can of cheese spray.

Then the pink pony squeezed out a ton of liquid squeezy cheese all over the front of the killer bots, getting them covered up in tons of cheese until they looked like piles of cheese goops that drip all over.

"Well, that didn't do nothing," Rainbow Dash remotely pointed out this failure of action.

"Darn! I should have said SAY CHEESE, how could I miss that easy pun?" Pinkie Pie cursed her luck in what she missed while missing the point.

But then, suddenly, as the killer machines were trying to move, they meant with difficulty in moving their legs and arms. As they seem stuck to the ground and their body seem kinda...squeezy that it didn't move right. They were seen struggling while the gang seem to watch from a safe distance.

"Look! The cheese seems to be doing something!" Spike pointed in what was going on.

"I say, Pinkie, what sorta cheese can is that?" Rarity asked in pondering what her friend managed to do.

"Easy, it's sticky-goopy cheese, silly. It's so sticky, you'll be chewing it in your mouth for all the fun times to chew and swallow." Pinkie Pie showed her can of cheese, as it was meant to be a sticky mess up kinda work.

"Well, 'dat seem to gum up their works." AJ smiled off to say that their pink friend done good.

"Oh, thank goodness." Fluttershy sighed in relief to hear this.

"Quickly; While they are stuck; RUUUUUUN," Twilight issued the order for them to getaway quickly now.

Soon, everyone ran away from the killer animatronics while they were currently busy trying to get themselves out of the cheesy mess they are in. The killer creatures growled in seeing Twilight escape, as they tried to go after her, but slipped and seemed so stuck that they are in a messy state; literally.

The Mane Six and Spike returned to the security room with the latter closing the door. Rarity sighed a bit, "Thank goodness we're safe for now."

"But Twilight, what are they talking about?" Applejack asked Twilight in concern. "They seem 'ta believe ya did something 'ta them."

"I don't know." Twilight said, sweating. Her mind got back to the incident years ago as a filly with what she saw was so terrifying, the princess doesn't want to talk about it. "I wish I knew..."

The ponies checked the monitor as the robots managed to get out of the slippery mess...and they looked pissed.

"Well, it's 2 AM." Twilight said with a sigh. "Only 5 hours left."

-----------------

It was around 4 AM. The ponies were tired but still nervous. They had to deal with Bonnie and Chica, along with Foxy and Freddy a few times. The ponies were still no close to finding out the truth to the missing foals...but Twilight had a feeling that she already knew, though the mare didn't.

"Alright, Rarity, check the monitor for the door on our right, I'm gonna open it to converse some power." Twilight explained to her friend as she came near that said door.

"Right, darling, I'll..." Rarity was saying as she checked the monitor, only to see...someone waiting outside. "Hugh, Twilight...don't open the door! There's..." She tried to warn Twilight of a threat..

But too late! As Twilight opened the door, she was greeted with a grasp by Chica the Duck, who snarled at her frightened face.

"Waaaaughhhm" Twilight screamed out in horror, she was caught and the others stared paralyzed.

"I have you now, Twilight!" Chica snarled off to say in having this pony in her metal grasp.

"Who," Pinkie Pie asked off at the sudden moment.

"What? Twilight Sparklem" Chica responded puzzled to look at the pink pony in making the confusion.

"Where," Pinkie Pie asked off to look around very puzzled.

"In my clutches...wait, what?" Chica was pointing out before seeing that Twilight was not in her clutches, she got out. "Where is she?" She snapped to ask in where the prime target was.

"Who," Pinkie Pie asked off in not knowing who Chica meant.

"Twilight," Chica snapped off in getting annoyed.

"Where," Pinkie Pie asked to look around in not knowing where to look for a Twilight subject.

"The Pony I had!" Chica snapped off in starting to lose patience with this pink pony."Are you always this randomly annoying?" She asked off in seeing Pinkie Pie was testing her last nerve.

"Yew had no idea." AJ rolled her eyes to simply state the fact.

"Tell me where Twilight Sparkle is or else." Chica threaten the others in what she’ll do if they don't tell her what she wants to know.

"Okay, she ran out that door!" Pinkie Pie smiled to point out the door Chica came through; stating Twilight ran out that way.

Chica then turn around to follow after the fleeing princess. But afterwards, the gang shut the door, and Fluttershy pulled a blanket off where she and Rainbow hid Twilight from Chica's view during the confusion of her disappearance.

"Thanks, Pinkie Pie, your random distraction help me teleport out of her grasp when she wasn't looking." Twilight sighed in relief that her pink friend managed to get rid of Chica by confusing her...a lot.

"Anytime, Twilight," Pinkie Pie smiled off proudly to say this.

"We're just glad you are alright." Fluttershy smiled in being glad they didn't lose Twilight just now.

"Boy, what a dumb quack! She fell for that random play like some clueless stool-pigeon!" Rainbow Dash bragged off in seeing that the duck pretty much fell for that play.

"Better hope she don't hear ya say 'dat 'ta come at ya again, Rainbow." Applejack reminded Rainbow Dash of the last time she made fun of Chica and it nearly scared the daredevil pony out of her wits.

"How long do you think she'll realize she was setup?" Spike asked in wondering if Chica will learn of this deception.

"Hopeful for the rest of the night," Rarity sighed off to say in hoping that animatronic will leave them alone now.

With that, everyone quickly keeps their eyes and ears open for anything while keeping an eye on the monitors for any of Freddy and the gang's actions happening tonight.

"I sure hope this night could end faster..." Twilight said in worry.

The ponies and Spike yelped as they saw images of Bonnie with dark eyes, glaring wickedly.

"Gah; That's creepy!" Rarity exclaimed as the hallucination disappear from sight.

"There must be something in this room to hide in, I can't stand those things anymore!" Fluttershy cried in fear.

Twilight looked at the camera for the Kitchen area. She could hear a familiar tone from in there. Freddy must be in the Kitchen now.

The ponies checked the image of the Dining Room...and saw a familiar Alicorn in there.

"Princess Celestia?" Twilight asked in concern, noting her love is in there. "Wha..."

Twilight gasped in horror as what appeared to be Bonnie advancing on her.

"NO!" Twilight screamed in terror. She opened the door and rush out.

"Twilight, wait!" Spike and the Mane Five yelped as they ran after her.

Twilight heads into the Dining Room and saw Bonnie about to grab Celestia. She yelled out, "GET AWAY FROM HER, YOU MONSTER!!!!"

Suddenly Bonnie glared as he...knocked Celestia over? It wasn't the princess at all, but a cardboard drawing of her. Twilight gasped in shock and alarm. She had been tricked!

"Arr, arr, arr," Foxy exclaimed as he appeared, landing on a table, startling the group. "Ye think ye lad and lasses by the only ones with tricks?! We made one of our own!"

"And now it's your turn to pay the piper!" Freddy exclaimed as he and Chica appeared in the room, the chicken was pissed over being fooled; Looks like she figured it out.

"Foxy, wait; I know what happened on the Bite of '87." Twilight said, pleading to Foxy. "It isn't your fault. Something was messing with your program. I know you didn't mean to bite Aurora Star...from what I suspect, you couldn't control yourself!"

Foxy hesitated. Twilight's right...but for a moment, a dark voice hissed, ("She's trying to stop you. She knew.")

"And guys, I don't know what you were on about, but you are robots programmed to entertain foals and other species." Twilight said in worry, trying to speak to the mad robots.

Freddy, Bonnie and Chica hesitated, but the dark thought returned to them, ("Do not listen. She never told anypony where you were. Make her suffer, make her suffer!")

Freddy grunted, growling, "It's your funeral, Princess, and now you will be getting a p-p-preview!"

"Can't you just listen to me?!" Twilight asked desperately, "You're supposed to be friendly to ponies!"

"It's no use, Twi! They're still tryin' to kill ya!" Applejack exclaimed in worry.

Seeing they were about to be killed, the only way to get out of this case would be to escape, but how? The answer came when Pinkie Pie realized they were dealing with animatronics that wanna kill them, because they are alive, so....use that against them.

"Look! It's a fuzzy-wuzzy-bunny!" Pinkie pointed off to respond to this as a surprise shock of what was here.

Freddy and his crew turned to look ready to KILL something that was as cute and cuddly like a little foal, but...there was none. When they turn back, they saw the ones they were gonna kill...escaped!

We soon find everyone in a safe room that was away from the killer animal robot nightmares.

"But...what about the bunny," Fluttershy asked in feeling concern for an animal in trouble.

"Fluttershy, she made that up." Rainbow Dash pointed out what Pinkie did back there, much to Fluttershy's shock.

"Gotta admit, 'dat was slick thinkin', Pinkie." AJ smiled to sigh in relief of what was done to save them.

"I just can't believe they fell for that." Twilight spoke in feeling that worked almost too well to think it work.

"I suppose even costume wearing monstrosities aren't known to be bright other than just wanting to kill." Rarity spoke to say this in feeling that such things that wanna kill never think a second if what they can kill is real or not.

"So now what do we do," Spike asked in wondering what they do from here.

Suddenly, some flashes appeared, making Twilight shake her head. She sweated in horror upon seeing a poster...of a golden familiar bear.

"Twilight; what's wrong?" Pinkie asked Twilight curiously.

Twilight was about to speak...but her eyes widened as she backed away, muttering, "No...it can't be."

"What can't be?" Rainbow asked Twilight confused.

"No, please. Not you! Anyone but you!" Twilight exclaimed, trembling in fear.

The Mane Five and Spike looked worried. What's wrong with Twilight? Unknown to them, the Alicorn was seeing something behind them: a golden/yellow color variation of Freddy Fazbear with missing eyes. He also had a dark blue-colored bowtie, as opposed to Freddy's black one, though this may be a result of the lighting. Upon closer inspection, a microphone could be seen held in his right hand, as well as two pinprick white dots within his otherwise empty eye sockets. His paws/hands are facing palms up. It is also possible that there is an endoskeleton in the suit. If one looks at the arms, a few wires/parts of the endoskeleton are visible. His jaw hangs open and his head is tilted to the right. He is also presented in a sitting, slouched position, as if he were dead.

------------------

Filly Twilight watched in horror as the stallion in the Golden Freddy outfit laughed as he grabbed the first foal, stabbing him in the heart, blood and guts came out.

Twilight felt like screaming herself but kept quiet as Golden Freddy stabbed the poor colt until he's dead...

----------------------

"NO, NO, NO!!! HOW CAN YOU BE HERE," Twilight screamed, backing away some more, not from her friends, but the monster that killed those foals years ago...the one called Golden Freddy.

"Twilight, what's wrong?!" Rarity asked in worry.

Twilight sweats, looking more terrified as she saw the Golden Freddy creature behind her friends. Not any of them notice that it is getting up on its own, glaring at Twilight...

Soon images appear in Twilight's POV. An image of the Golden Freddy head appearing, roaring and that words "It's me" appearing. Soon images of that day at Freddy's appear. The Alicorn watches in fright as the murderer in the suit grabs a filly's neck, breaking it hard and killing. He then drops her and goes on to the next victim who tries to escape but was grabbed. The poor colt screams his last as the murderer rips out his guts with his knife....

Twilight snaps out of it, screaming, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The Alicorn finally frantically opens the door, running out of the room.

"Twilight," The Mane Five and Spike exclaims in shock. They turn and saw...nothing. What was it that Twilight was seeing?!

Twilight continues galloping down the halls, looking back in fear. That Golden Freddy thing is after her. It wants her head! The princess finds herself in the Dining Room...and Freddy and his pals are waiting, glaring at her. She made a terrible mistake in coming this way.

Twilight's vision flashes, then yelps as she saw four familiar foals advancing on her...the same ones who the mare saw got killed that time. Twilight sweats, yelping, "No....dear Celestia, no...it can't be..."

"We got you down, coward." The first colt who was killed spoke in Freddy's voice. The last colt snarls in Foxy's voice.

Twilight finds herself in a corner, holding herself in fear and trembling as the foals changed back into the Freddy Fazbear bots. Freddy screeches as he prepares to lunge at her...

But then a familiar bell rings along with children's laughter. The animatronics turn and saw that it is now 6 AM. The night shift is over.

Chica glares to Twilight, snapping, "Tomorrow night, princess...you will pay...FOR NOT TELLING EVERYPONY OF OUR SUFFERING WHEN YOU HAD THE CHANCE!!!!"

With that, the animatronics head back into place, leaving Twilight alone in the corner. As they do, the Mane Five and Spike came in, heading over to her. Thank Equestria that he wasn't killed.

"Twilight, are yew okay?" Applejack asks Twilight in concern. "What 'de Sam Hill happened? What was 'dat there scene back there all about?"

Twilight yelps and screams as she runs out of the building, much to the shock of her friends. As they run out after the, the six can only watch as Twilight teleport from sight...

-------------------

Celestia had woken up, raising the sun as she always did. The princess is preparing a new day. Luna came in, saying, "Well, Tia, my night round is over. Time for this princess to..."

But before Luna could finish, a familiar purple Alicorn appears, shaking and trembling in fear. Celestia gasps as her love gallops over, hugging the princess, "Twilight? What's wrong? Did something happen at Freddy's?"

"Please, Celestia, please...don't make me go back there! Please, I don't want to...please, please!!!!" Twilight sobs, hugging Celestia while hiding her head. Celestia looks stunned and worried. Something at Freddy's had her lover spooked. She sighs and hugs her.

"It's okay, Twilight, it's okay...perhaps you don't have to go the next night...let me take you to your room. Shhhhh...."

Celestia leads the traumatized and sobbing Twilight away. Luna narrows her eyes in concern. Celestia had told her of how she recruited Twilight to investigate the disappearances of the foals at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza...along with the two nights that happened so fear. The Goddess of the Night suspects that whatever happened, Twilight Sparkle is involved...and she doesn't wish to speak of it due to some trauma in her past involving the place.

Luna must find out what happened and help Twilight with her fears, somehow...

Author's Notes:

Poor Twilight, she is suffering through her past again. In the next chapter, Night Four, the fate of the Phone Guy, and Luna is determined to find out what Twilight is hiding by going into her dreams. Read and review.

Like I said before, Aurora Star belongs to Fus-ro-Yay1 whose fanart of her can be found on deviantART. Her sister Sapphire Locket also belongs to the same author.

The flashback is a reference to the audio made by 'Mr. Creepypasta', with Jeremy Ironhoof and the Marionette being involved. Speaking of Jeremy...

Jeremy Ironhoof is based on Jeremy Fitzgerald, the main hero of 'Five Nights at Freddy's 2, which I will be using in the prequel.

Foxy's mad attempts at breaking into the security rooms (only to failed the first two times) is of course a reference to the Shining parody segment on the Simpsons.

The 'Who' & 'Where' gag jokes is reference of when TUFF Puppy characters Owl & Bat annoy Birdbrain.

Chapter 5: The Nightmares of Twilight's Past

The Mane Five and Spike return to the castle a while later. What Twilight did last night...spooked the Tartarus out of them. She saw something that neither of them had saw...and it had something to do with Freddy's. But what is it? Why isn't she talking about it? Something is off.

In the throne room, the girls and Spike describe what had happened to the Royal Sisters, which ended with Twilight freaking out at...something that the six didn't saw as well as almost being captured by Freddy and his pals. This leads more concerns for Celestia. Her love is happening traumatic experiences at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza...and there may be a reason as to why she kept zoning out at times.

"Well, I already alerted Shining and Cadance about this." Celestia explains to the girls and Spike with a sigh. "They send me a message and are already on their way to Canterlot. I also alerted Twilight's parents."

"Twilight Sparkle needs all the support that she can get now." Luna said seriously. "She is in her room right now and prefers not to come out or go back to Freddy's. Which is odd: Twilight was determined to figure out the mystery before...but now, what happened last night may've been the straw that broke the camel's back."

"A straw breaking a camel's back?" Rarity yelps as she almost faints upon hearing that. "That's terrible!"

"It's only an expression."

"May we come in and see her?" Fluttershy ask the princesses meekly. "We are her friends and well...if you rather we don't..."

"Go ahead, my little ponies." Celestia said with a sigh. She is giving the Mane Five and Spike permission to speak to Twilight. The new princess should be recovering from her trauma...slowly but barely. "But be careful. She won't be easily convinced to come."

The Mane Five and Spike nods as they head off. Hopefully, the six can convince Twilight to change her mind...and help find out the mystery. For if she refuses to come back to Freddy's, most likely the mad robots would try to break out of the restaurant, just to get to her. And who knows what innocent ponies would be hurt in the madness if that were to occur?

"No doubt about it, sister. There's something about Freddy's that traumatized young Twilight Sparkle. Something that she doesn't wish to speak about," Luna said to Celestia seriously. The white Alicorn nods, agreeing with her sister's train of thought, "If she won't speak to anypony, then it's time I go in through the best way I know how."

"You want to go into her dreams to find out the answers, do you?" Celestia ask Luna, giving a serious look. She knew what the Goddess of the Night had in mind: Luna wishes to go into Twilight's dreams, find out what terrified her of Freddy's so.

"it may have something to do with her past. I wish to investigate, help her conquer her fear, and had her bring the whole thing out. If only we are to get to the bottom of this mystery, and stop the wicked forces haunting Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.

"Then by all means, do it, Luna. For Twilight's sake and for the sake of every pony in Equestria..."

------------

The six found Twilight, lying on her side in her guest room that Celestia gave her whenever the new princess wishes to stay at Canterlot. She knows that they are there but isn't much responsible right now...or ever; seeing that...monster...Golden Freddy....and the foals in place of the Animatronics. It shook her up to her core...

"Twilight, please, come on." Applejack said to Twilight, trying to shake her. "We need yew."

"I'm sorry, but I can't go back...I...just can't...." Twilight said sadly, keeping to her side, facing a wall. "There is something about Freddy's...that I don't want to talk about. Please, don't ask me..."

"So what; you want to give up, just like that?" Rainbow asks Twilight in disbelief. "Willing to give up just because some mad robots shook you good? That isn't the Twilight I know. She would never let that get her down."

"I'm sorry I let you down, girls...but something happened recently. I don't want to speak about it. Just leave..."

"But Twilight, what about the whole...if you don't figure this out, those guys will come out of the restaurant to hunt you down statement?" Spike reminded Twilight about what she said before.

"I know...I know...I just..." Twilight nods in hearing this reminder.

"Take it easy Twilight, I think I got just the solution to help us out. And a secret weapon to boot." Rainbow Dash proudly spoke in having a way to settle the issue.

"What secret weapon?" Twilight raised an eyebrow in hearing this.

"D'uh! If she told you, it wouldn't be a secret, silly!" Pinkie rolled her eyes to say it was a secret.

"Pinkie Pie's gonna help me setup a little trick to get Freddy and company to call it quits earlier..." Rainbow pointed out in what department Pinkie's gonna do to help in. "During the moment you left, AJ and me rigged the place with booby-traps to keep them bots busy, even without power, they'll go off." Then pointed to AJ in where she'll help in another area. "And if all else fails, Rarity will step in with our secret weapon." She pointed to the drama queen in where she'll play a big role to help.

Twilight remain silent, she was not sure if Rainbow actually had a clever plan to help survive the second night or not, but...it can't hurt to try, perhaps.

"Look, if you rather not go tonight, we will understand. Just try to get better in mind and body, darling." Rarity said, patting Twilight on the back. "You are our friend and we want what's best for you."

"Also, Starker gave this to us...we don't know if this will make you feel better but we hope it does." Fluttershy said as she put something in Twilight's direction on a dresser. "Please, feel better."

With that, the girls and Spike took their leave, but not before the baby Dragon hugs his mother/sister one last night. He said, "I love you, mom. Please feel better."

Spike took his leave. Twilight looks up ahead and saw what it is that Fluttershy put down: some sort of stuffed Freddy Fazbear doll...even though it's supposed to be cute...looking at it made the princess shiver...as if she never wanted to sleep ever again...

It's as if that thing is spying on her, waiting to pounce...

---------------------------------

It was around 11:45 PM when the Mane Five and Spike returns to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, this time without Twilight. It will be difficult without their leader and friend with them, but they will try to make it through the Fourth Night as best as they could.

The six quickly headed to the office, making sure everything is in order. As Spike, AJ and Fluttershy checks on the lap-top to make sure that the boys are still in their positions for tonight, Pinkie, Rainbow and Rarity prepares for their big roles. If the booby traps fail, then what they got up their non-existent pony sleeves will work.

"Well, there're Freddy and his pals." Spike said, then he spots them getting off stage. "They're off the stage again. I guess they had no idea that Twilight isn't with us."

"Let's hope they still think 'dat, sugah cube." Applejack said seriously. "If by chance, they done figure she isn't, they will be upset than a bull seeing a red an' would try 'ta break out o' here!"

"Where's that weird Pinkie Pie lookalike who keeps coming here?"

As the fourth night is nearing, Freddy is lightly walking but does not see the pink pony and worries. Something clicks and he thinks that Marionette might of gotten her as he searches but then he hears a tune.

"That's coming from the music box so that means." Freddy mumbles a bit.

Freddy then moves to a Vent and it was getting louder as he move slowly and notices a open part of it and looks. But the Animatronics backs up, shocked as he sees to his surprise the Golden Freddy, the very one worn by the imposter...but isn't it the same suit that he stuffed that kid into years...but then the creature grabs his leg as it was Sparking. Golden Freddy let off a strained screech as Freddy shakes his leg to shake it off.

"Let go of me! Don't you remember? I've saved your soul when..." Freddy said as he tries to speak to Golden Freddy but the thing appears to be mindless, unable to listen or even respond.

Freddy gives a hard kick as it goes flying to the wall where the Vent was. It slowly crawls to him but then he sees a blade impale the robot. Golden Freddy screeches are heard as it dies and shuts down. He then looks up and sees the Pink Pony with the music box safely in her bag as she was bruised and has some small cuts with blood lightly seeping. She slightly hisses, twisting the blade as sparks came as Pinkamena raises her blade up again and says, "You will be next, Marionette."

Pinkamena stabs it one more time as it screeches its final screech and goes limped. Freddy saw this and gotten a few feet away as she draws her blade out. The pink pony looks at Freddy and walks to him and says, "I know Twilight talked to you she wanted to help you but you let the dark evil voice of the Marionette control you just like what he did at the Bite of 87."

"We could not help it; he is as they say the puppet master." Freddy said to Pinkamena. "We owe him much for giving us life when the killer took us."

"YOU HAVE A CHOICE...........nopony can force you to choose unless you allow them."

Freddy thinks and he sighs and says, "Look, I know I wanted to hear her."

A dark voice is heard in his head but it did not get unnoticed by Pinkamena, ("She will end you, kill her.")

Pinkamena yells, "SHUT YOUR BUCKING MOUTH!!!"

That made Freddy and the ones on stage jump as Freddy says, "You..............you can hear the voices?"

"Well duh! My pinkie senses and other senses allow me to hear him; please do not listen to him; listen to your heart."

"We are machines, we have no hearts."

"Even so, the puppet has nothing but evil and hatred to anyone; he is heartless." Pinkamena points out. She hugs Freddy and says, "But you are not like him you and your friends are loved. Twilight does understand what happened and soon she and the others will know the true foe but please do not listen to him for he will only lead you and your friends into the darkness........besides you Pinkie promised."

Freddy slightly hugs back and says, "I............we will try and I did not forget."

Pinkamena nods and says, "Thank you Freddy." Pinkamena lets the hug go as she then heads off. The pink notices that Golden Freddy is gone as she says, "It will not be long; now things will be at peace and Freddy and friends will be redeemed."

Pinkamena then climbs up into the Vent and gets ready as Freddy heads off back to the stage as he hears the music being played. The Animatronic is back in place and looks at his friends; they look back as they ready for the fourth night.

12:00 AM, 4th Night

At the sudden moment, lightning was flash with the sound of thunder, as it impacted the restaurant yet again. The motion caused those in the control room to yelp, but the electricity soon went its course, as it came into contact with Freddy and his buds. From getting another super-charge, their eyes flash red, as they felt another boost to move. And back in the office, those that handle what happened wonder what this meant yet again.

"Pinkie, what does it say about their level outputs?" Rainbow asked in knowing that from that bolt of lightning, gave the Animatronics another boost to be more active.

"Oh, not good; Looks like on the fourth night, Freddy's Level 13, Foxy is Level 12, and Bonnie & Chica are both Level 11. They’ve gone up quite a bit." Pinkie Pie explains to her friends in worry.

"Man; that means they'll be even more dangerous tonight." Spike stated to feel that the robot killers have almost gone 2, 3, to 4 levels higher now.

"Don't worry, with my plan, there is no room for failure." Rainbow boosted herself in feeling cocky here.

"Somehow, Ah wonder." AJ rolled her eyes to say this in thinking it'll be lucky if they can get by tonight with a plan Rainbow concocted.

With that, everyone gets ready for what to expect tonight, their eyes are glue to the screens, ears listening outside the doors for any incoming threats.

----------------

"Twilight, have a good night." Celestia said, nuzzling Twilight as she sit in her bed, preparing to sleep. "Try not to think about Freddy's or what happened. Just try to sleep. I will wake you in the morning, my dear princess."

"Thank you, Celestia." Twilight whispers as she prepares to sleep for the night. Maybe the mare needed a good night sleep. After what happened...

Celestia kisses Twilight on the forehead and heads off, closing the door behind her as she leaves the room. Twilight looks at the dolls from Freddy's on her desk. She wishes to be comforted by them, to call them her friends...but no...not as long as Freddy’s haunts her...

Twilight closes her eyes, preparing to go into a long sleep. Unknown to her, a familiar Night Alicorn appears near the ceiling, watching.

The time has come for her to go into Twilight's dreams...everything will be answered...tonight...

-----------------------

The Mane Five and Spike prepared themselves for the biggest night without Twilight. Just then, the phone rang; another one of the Phone Guy's calls.

"Hello, hello? Hey! Hey, wow, day 4. I knew you could do it. Uh, hey, listen, I may not be around to send you a message tomorrow."

Suddenly, the six could hear banging sounds in the background of the call. This makes them worried. It sounds like Foxy is trying to break in the office during the time that the recording was done.

"That doesn't sound good." Rainbow said in concern.

"It's-It's been a bad night here for me. Um, I-I'm kinda glad that I recorded my messages for you...ahem uh, when I did. Uh, hey, do me a favor."

The girls can hear more banging noises. It may not be long before Foxy can break in there.

"Maybe sometime, uh, you could check inside those suits in the back room? I'm gonna to try to hold out until someone checks. Maybe it won't be so bad."

"Oh, man." Spike said in fear as Foxy kept on hitting on the door outside of the office in the call.

"Uh, I-I-I-I always wondered what was in all those empty heads back there."

The girls suddenly realized that the banging noises stopped...and their and Spike's blood almost froze as a familiar chime plays...the same one Freddy played whenever he was in the Kitchen or when he almost got Twilight on the first night....

"You know..."

Just then, the six could hear a moaning sound in the background, which means that Chica and/or Bonnie are now in the office. It must be a group effort!

"Oh, no-"

Suddenly, noises are heard as an animatronic screech is heard, before all goes to static...but unlike the other times that the Mane Six and Spike heard the screeching noises, the last one sounded like a huge roar.

The six looked at each other in horror. The Animatronics must've got the Phone Guy!

"They got him!" Applejack cried fearfully.

The Mane Five and Spike went silent, they are getting scared. The only voice of comfort besides Starker was killed before they even spend their first week here. Could his body be...

"Listen, we must try to move on. The Phone Guy would want us to do so." Rarity said to her friends calmly.

"I want my mommy!" Fluttershy whimpered.

"Fluttershy, it’s okay, it’s okay," Rainbow said, hugging her old Flight School friend. "We can do this. We can do this. We don't show fear to those guys, we can win."

Seeing the situation as it was, Rainbow nodded her head in knowing that as things stand, they need to plot out their attack.

"Pinkie Pie, you know the drill." Rainbow issued the order to her friend.

"Roger! Baiting killer robots, here I come!" Pinkie Pie saluted before exiting out the left door.

"Wait, you're using Pinkie Pie to bait them?" Spike yelped in having heard this, isn't that gonna put their friend in danger?

"She's been practicing some secret hide-n-seek technique that will help distract those guys while throwing them off their game. Just watch." Rainbow Dash smiled in feeling that they don't have nothing to fear, this will go according to plan.

The others in the room decided to just keep their eyes pilled for anything they can see. What would Pinkie Pie do when she's facing a haunted restaurant filled with killer bots? Gonna have to see it to believe it...

---------------

The scene opened to where Freddy, Chica, Bonnie and Foxy were checking any of the rooms by the doors for anything. And that's when Pinkie Pie skid in and then made a whistle sound to get their attention.

"Hey guys, wanna try at catching this pony?" Pinkie Pie challenged with a smirk on her face, then shook her tail and then did a raspberry before hopping off.

"GET HER!" Foxy yelled out as the gang of bots went after the pink ego pony.

Then a moment showed that Pinkie Pie ran before entering a hallway with eight doors. Freddy's group found the pink pony when she entered one, and then went after her. But then, Pinkie came out another door to go to the left hall to go through another. Foxy and Freddy came out of two doors, looking, but then while the former went in, the latter went out to try another door. Soon, a comical gag of running around, going through door to door, and unknown events coming out became the game. There was even a time where Pinkie Pie was chasing the killer bots from one door to the next; which was weird, but...eh, it's just random. There were even times Freddy's group came out with mini race-cars while Pinkie Pie flew in a mini-airplane to try to chase another before going through the doors.

"How does one pony do all this?" Bonnie asked.

"There she is!" Foxy ran towards the one door Pinkie went in, only to open and get blasted by a cannon afterwards. "Ouch!" Foxy said from appearing to look like a smoking robot.

"She's gone into the kitchen, we got her now!" Freddy issued.

Soon Freddy's group burst opens the kitchen doors to enter and find Pinkie Pie sitting on a dishwasher.

"We have you now, little poniiieeeeee...." Then Freddy took a step only to slip and slide to crash into equipment; because of a banana peel. And soon Bonnie, Chica & Foxy also slipped on the bananas without warning.

And then what came next was the pink pony doing....a song number.

Pinkie Pie: My name is Pinkie Pie
And here is my spiel!

Pinkie was dancing in making this claim.

Pinkie: A clever little plan with lots of appeal!

Then as we zoom away, we find that the pink pony spread out banana peels all over the floor.

Pinkie: Spreading out bananas afar and wide
And fixing up the bots for a slippery slide!

Soon, Bonnie and then Chica were seen slipping on the peels with no control while crashing into stuff.

"Pretty catchy, right," Pinkie Pie smiled to say this in having done well on that number.

Soon all four bots slide to crash into the other in the center of the kitchen. They were trying to get their ground support, when guess who pops near...

"Hey, is this place's refrigerator running?" Pinkie Pie asked them this funny joke question related to a phone prank.

"Um, yes, I believe so when one of us check it." Chica slowly nodded in stating this answer.

"Then you better CATCH it!" Pinkie issued forth the answer here.

"Don't you mean GO catch it?" Bonnie raised an eyebrow in not getting the joke.

Just then, a spring sound was heard, and as the bots look behind them, where the fridge was just got shot off up into the air; which meant...

"Oh boy, I hate getting late puns." Freddy groaned to say in seeing the irony of that joke now.

"CRASH," Then a giant refrigerator had dropped right onto Freddy's group as the object smashed them into the floor hard while the pink pony was safely out of harm's way.

"Excellent work, Pinkie, get ready for the next phase!" Rainbow Dash's voice came from the pink pony's com-link in stating what she should do next.

"Roger!" Pinkie Pie saluted in hearing this, and shall commence the next plan step.

And with that, the pink pony skipped off while the animatronics were seen struggling and making groan sounds to remove a heavy drop fridge off their bodies; it'll take time before they get that done.

----------------

Luna stepped into the dream world of Twilight Sparkle which swirled around for a bit. The Alicorn knew that if she wanted to find out what's going on, this was the right place.

Luna found herself in a familiar restaurant of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. The Goddess of the Night had never been here, but she could already tell what it was already.

"Hey, kids!" A voice spoke up from the speakers. "Are you ready for Freddy?"

"Yeah," The foals cheers on eagerly. They watch anxiously as the curtains open up, revealing the house band: Freddy Fazbear and his pals, which are animatronic robots!

Now these guys are robots based on animals. Bonnie the Bunny, a lavender, animatronic bunny with articulated ears that can bend forward, maroon eyes and wears a red bow tie, plays the guitar. Chica the Chicken, a bright yellow animatronic chicken with an orange beak, purple eyes, and black eyebrows, wearing, a white bib that reads "LET'S EAT!!!" in yellow bubble letters, outlined in purple (The bib is flecked with tri-colored triangles in patterns of three, and what appear to be tiny stylized pizza slices), carrying in her left hand a pink cupcake with no wrapper and two large eyes, is the backup singer. And their leader Freddy Fazbear, an animatronic wearing a costume that gives him the appearance of a brown bear, wearing a black top hat and bow tie, and holding a microphone in his right paw, his ears articulating, and thus can move back and forth, sings as well.

"Hey, kids! Are you ready to have some fun?" Freddy spoke into the mike to the foals who cheers wildly. "Well, we're going to have some fun, right Bonnie?"

"Sure do, Freddy!" Bonnie exclaimed in agreement. "Well, I couldn't have any reason not to have any fun!"

"Can we eat pizza now guys?" Chica asked her pals in a female like voice.

"Later, Chica, we promise." Freddy assures Chica. "Okay, time for us to perform! Ready?"

"Ready!" His pals exclaimed. The robots begin singing their song like they like to do every day since their creation.

At one of the tables, a purple filly giggled, cheering on the band. Her brother, a white colt with a blue mane, groaned a bit, "Cadance? Do we have to come here? I feel ridiculous."

Princess Cadance, adopted niece of the ruler of Equestria, Princess Celestia, giggled a bit, "Come on, Shining, give it a chance. This place is fun for the foals and Twiley here likes it."

"Yeah, but if the guys find out that I'm here, I will never live it down!"

"Mr. Grumpy Head, relax. No one would mind if a tough mighty stallion like you would be here. I like it here...so it couldn't be all bad, right? Still...I do need a powerful unicorn like you to keep me safe from the rampaging kiddies."

Shining smiled as his filly friend nuzzled him a bit. Perhaps Cadance was right. This place couldn't be bad, especially since his little sister did like it. His parents brings her here to have fun (he doesn't normally come here because of how silly and lame this place is for big colts like him) and if his beloved would insist on coming here...wanting him to be with her...then it's worth dealing with the awkwardness.

What makes it more awkward is that sometimes during or after the performances, the animatronics would get off stage to interact with the foals. They don't mind it, it's fun to hang out, play with the robots...but parents are concerned for what may be the lack of privacy. Even one of these robots would freak him out should they come near him.

"Shiny, Shiny, big brother," Twilight exclaims eagerly. "I wanna play some games."

Shining and Cadance laughed sheepishly. The little filly may be a bookworm, but she is still a foal. It's cute when the little one still wanna play games in light of this. Shining passed tokens to his sis, saying, "All right, have fun. Don't get into trouble."

"And make sure not to get into any mischief with the foalsitter. She is sitting me, not you, cranky head!"

Shining and Cadance blush a bit as Twilight galloped off. She always had a habit of teasing them like this. The soon to be student of Celestia hummed as she looked around the game area. There are so many games to play...and less magic to do it with. The little unicorn felt like it's best to not use magic. She wanted to win tickets the right way; But how?

Luna watched in curiosity. This must be the same day that Twilight stopped coming here. But what happened that made her do so?

Twilight and Luna then heard cheering, making them turn to see five foals gathering around somepony dressed in a golden Freddy outfit. He chuckled, "All right, foals, settle down. Follow me to the backstage and I will give you something special, courtesy of us at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, for all the special ponies."

Twilight grinned as the little ones follow the Freddy mascot to the Backstage Area. She's special! Twilight wanted something, too! She happily followed the group who didn't seem to notice that she's there. Luna decided to follow as well, there must be something happening that explained Twilight's scared and mysterious behavior.

As the mascot opened the door to let the foals in, he waited until it's time for him to close the door...unaware that Twilight zipped in and quickly hid behind a table. Twilight wants to make a surprise appearance.

"All right, kids. You ready for Freddy?" The mascot asked the foals who cheered wildly. Twilight gave a wide smile. She was ready for Freddy! But then, the mascot then spoke in a dark voice, "Good...because Freddy is ready...for you."

Twilight watched in hiding, ready for the special treat...that is, until the Freddy mascot opened a drawer...and pulled out some sort of sharp knife. The unicorn filly looks confused. What kind of special treat involved a knife? Was he gonna cut pizza to serve or something?

Twilight's eyes widened as she watched what's happening in front of her. Even Luna's eyes widened in horror as she saw it...the incident involving the Missing Foals!

Filly Twilight watched in horror as the stallion in the Golden Freddy outfit laughed as he grabbed the first foal, stabbing him in the heart, blood and guts came out.

Twilight felt like screaming herself but kept quiet as Golden Freddy stabbed the poor colt until he's dead...

"No, please!" A filly exclaimed. She tried to gallop off to escape but the Golden Freddy imposter grabbed her and threw her towards a wall, causing her neck to snap, killing the foal instantly.

"No... no! Make it stop!" Twilight cried in horror as she shed tears.

"By the mane of Star Swirl the Bearded," Luna exclaimed in horror. She and Filly Twilight watched in terror as the fourth colt got grabbed and stabbed, his guts came out. The imposter laughed wickedly as he cut one hoof right off before stabbing him in the head.

With everything so loud in the dining room, no one could hear what's going on! Soon, the Golden Freddy monster turned to the final colt whose stood there frozen. Filly Twilight could only watch in hiding as the killer approached him.

"Please, Freddy, why are you doing this?" The final colt whimpers.

"I am not...Freddy. And this is the final face you will ever see." The imposter snarled wickedly as he removed his head, revealing a purple stallion's head that laughed wickedly.

"Stop it!! Please!!!" Twilight begged in vain while crying in trauma, not wanting to see what was about to happen to the final colt.

"Is this what frightened Twilight so? The trauma of...this monster killing those foals," Luna whispered in horror. Even when she was Nightmare Moon, the Alicorn found this horrifying and despicable! What drove this stallion to do just a thing?

The impostor put the head back on and stabbed the colt in wickedly, causing the colt to cry his last.

Suddenly, the area started to blur a bit from Twilight's filly self being unable to take this scene to try to run. Luna saw something, and she tried to follow along the little Twilight. Unknown that that background music started to play before playing 'Five Nights At Freddy's' song.

Techno-Mix Singer: We're waiting every night
to finally roam and invite
newcomers to play with us
for many years we've been all alone

Many of Freddy's gang are seen slowly moving their heads to glare at the fleeing little Twilight. They wanted to come near the child, but she seemed scared to flee even faster. Leaving the animatronics to look puzzled, before looking gloom.

We're forced to be still and play
The same songs we've known since that day
An impostor took our life away
Now we're stuck here to decay

Then a dark shadow loom over the animatronics as it look like a giant golden Freddy costume as it soon laugh off darkly before swinging it's demon knife on some unseen foals from the crowd. That in turn caused them to vanish and the wave contacted with Freddy's group, as they lost much of their appearance to look a bit wreck and scary, like Frankenstein monsters.

Pre-Chorus: Please let us get in!
don't lock us away!
We're not like what you're thinking

After that, the scene showed much of the animatronics trying to move around like zombie-like movements as they are seen pounding on sealed doors wanting to get inside but shadowy families screamed in seeing monsters than those that need help.

We're poor little souls
who have lost all control
and we're forced here to take that role

Soon, some strange masked puppet attaches his strings on to the animatronics, making them dance and move on his puppet stage to scare and terrify the little audience.

We've been all alone
Stuck in our little zone
Since 1987

Next, the scene showed Freddy's gang being put in a closet, left to be alone to collect dust and be... forgotten.

Join us, be our friend
or just be stuck and defend
after all you only got

The machines were seen waiting, and then moved their heads to glare off across the distance before the scene wobbled a bit.

Chorus: Five Nights at Freddy's
Is this where you want to be
I just don't get it
Why do you want to stay

Five Nights at Freddy's
Is this where you want to be
I just don't get it
Why do you want to stay

Five Nights at Freddy's

Soon, the screen showed the restaurant in a creepy stormy appearance, as some shadowy guard figure tried to watch the security cameras to watch for anything suspicious, but did not see Freddy and his gang sneak in behind and grab the poor soul to take him away... The next scene showed a poor soul struggling while being stuff into a costume before everything goes dark.

Verse 2: We're really quite surprised
We get to see you another night
You should have looked for another job
you should have said to this place good-bye

Now the scene showed Twilight trying to run when Freddy's gang popped out from one side to another, trying to reach her, but she was trying to get away.

It's like there's so much more
Maybe you've been in this place before
We remember a face like yours
You seem acquainted with those doors

But then Twilight ended up skidding in front of Freddy and the gang, the optic eyes reflect the events of the past. And Twilight tried to rush away from the robots to the door as she left and left the bots alone in the dark.

Pre-Chorus: Please let us get in!
Don't lock us away!
We're not like what you're thinking

Then busting through the doors, the bots were coming after Twilight with their glowing red eyes.

We're poor little souls
who have lost all control
and we're forced here to take that role

The bots were seen being manipulated by unseen strings being done by a shadowy puppet creature that laughed evilly at doing this evil deed.

We've been all alone
Stuck in our little zone
Since 1987

Luna found Twilight, as the robots were wrecking across the hall to come towards them, wanting to catch anyone within their sight.

Join us, be our friend
or just be stuck and defend
after all you only got

Deciding to help, Luna took Twilight to fly across and dodged the attacking robots while the scene blurred again.

Chorus: Five Nights at Freddy's
Is this where you want to be
I just don't get it
Why do you want to stay

Five Nights at Freddy's
Is this where you want to be
I just don't get it
Why do you want to stay

Five Nights at Freddy's

Soon the two ponies are flying straight through what became a vortex void, swirling with crazy head figures of the animatronics that seem to enact a creepy funhouse. Twilight seem frighten to not look, but Luna had to be brave, as they were traveling through to not be intimidated by these nightmare illusions from the poor soul with her. Soon the song was coming to an instrumental version as there was a light to get through.

But just as the musical song came to an end, Twilight look back and soon Freddy and the gang were swallowed while, before a giant image of the Marionette figure appeared and screech out in about to get the ponies escaping. Twilight screamed at seeing this, Luna seeing another nightmare creature coming, used her horn and her magic to flash across the entire scene... eradicating all of the nightmare fields and the creature born from Twilight's fears. Soon, everything went blank afterwards as what happens next will tell... what is the problem...

-----------------

Foxy was seen running across the right hallway, about to surprise the gang like he did before, and almost reach the open doorway to the office...but...

"Step/SMACK," Without warning, a sudden mallet came that whacked Foxy across the hall and out of the area; and from what it's seen, he step on a trap set.

"Yes! That trap sprung perfectly!" Rainbow Dash smiled in success of that move.

"Exactly how will that help?" Rarity raised an eyebrow in pondering what her friend had meant.

"I asked AJ and Pinkie to setup many booby-traps; there's about 65 of them, so now whatever those guys try, they can't reach us and be delay." Rainbow explained the case that they set up some traps to help protect them and keep Freddy and his gang away until they could reach the end of the night.

"Oh, look! Bonnie tripped a wire and got punched in the face out of the area!" Pinkie Pie pointed in seeing a monitor where Bonnie tripped a wire and then something popped from a wall that revealed a punching glove that PUNCHED the guy out of the room.

"Heh-heh, hey, this is almost kinda funny." Spike chuckled a bit in thinking what they were seeing sorta help received them of fear.

Chica was seen trying to approach from the left hallway to the office room, but did not see a hidden skateboard. The duck yelped from skating before a hidden board whacked the duck out to skate across away from the targets to crash into something.

"Oh my, I do think it’s working." Fluttershy smiled in seeing that they may just have more fair shot in getting by tonight.

Freddy was soon coming into the right hallway, but it press a button on the floor. It yelped in expecting something, but nothing came that it sighed with relief.

"CRASH," Then without warning, one side of the wall expanded to crush the bear against the opposite side before it withdrew and left him leaving a bear paw print-size mark. As Freddy was getting out, he step on another trap, and out from above came a lever with a big BOOT, and it KICKED the guy to be like a bouncing beach ball out of the room.

"Yippy! We're on a roll!" Pinkie Pie cheered in seeing they were really giving it to them killer bots.

Pretty much, during the next passing so hours, much of Freddy and his gang were having much difficult time trying to approach their targets in the office. Each trap lead to different results: one being a trick staircase that slid Foxy down, second being trick moving step floors that Bonnie had a hard time hopping without them squashing him to the ceiling, third being a powerful fire hose that blew Chica off from the bathroom, even Freddy yelped when he was in the stage room, boom box speakers were playing heavy rock-n-roll to blast him across the area and his circuits began to spark in unable to take the power of such level of rock-n-roll that it even pressed him against a wall to end up breaking through it. And still so many other things that were keeping Freddy and the gang occupied from reaching and harming anyone.

"ENOUGH OF THIS FOOLISHNESS," The Marionette roared as he quickly moved around, disabling the traps. "Get me that princess!"

The four Animatronics yelped as they got back to work. The five mares and Spike looked stunned as they saw this sight.

"Okay, so there is a Puppet." Applejack said in concern.

"Okay, lets save on power and open the doors." Rainbow issued off in thinking it's time to save up on power now.

"Right, opening doors right..." Pinkie Pie press a button to open both doors...

Suddenly after that, the gang soon sees who was waiting outside, Foxy & Freddy on the left & Bonnie & Chica on the right. They glared at the group who seem to yelp in seeing...they just let in the killers.

"Now; Woh-uh-oh," Pinkie Pie finished her sentence to only make an oopsy claim now.

Soon Freddy and his crew come in with screeching snarls to approach the trapped gang. They look like they were cornered now, with no way out.

"WHERE...IS TWILIGHT!" Freddy snapped off in seeing Twilight was not among the group here.

"Um, in the skies," Spike nervously pointed up in saying they want Twilight, they should check the stars.

"We want the pony, Dragon!" Bonnie snapped off to the baby Dragon for being the wise guy.

"Tell us now!" Chica sternly snapped in wanting what they came for.

"Or ELSE," Foxy issued to say this in showing his hook, being serious on the case.

Things look bad, but strangely, Rainbow Dash seem calm before secretly pressing a button she found under between her back hooves.

"How's about....or else...THIS," Rainbow Dash remarked off with a smirk in saying she'll take on the challenge, she ain't afraid now. That causes the killer bots to almost come to get her until...

Suddenly without warning, a familiar bell rings along with children's laughter. The animatronics eyes flash up to turn and saw on a digital clock that said it's now 6 AM. The night shift is over already; man, that was faster than usual too! But seeing that perhaps time flew by from all the weird crazy stuff, Freddy and his crew followed their protocol and turn to leave the office to return to their areas.

"Phew, good thing it reached the end of our shift." Rarity signs in relief like the others, they made it through another night.

"Or did it?" Rainbow Dash raised an eyebrow to speak slyly, much to anyone's concerns.

"Alright Rainbow, wha did ye do?" Applejack narrow her eyes in thinking something was fishy in what Rainbow might have done.

"Simple...I had Pinkie Pie remote control all the clocks to fast forward to say 6 O'Clock while she played this recorded sound on the broadcast system." Rainbow Dash stated to point out how the button she push makes the recorded sound of what they heard the last few nights plus, remotely having the clocks read 6AM, so it fooled the animatronics pretty good.

"Wait; so then....we FAKED the actual thing? But then that means it's not over yet!" Spike gasped in realizing that plan might have help, but what if the bots realize the mistake?

"Relax....those tin-head costume bots won't know it until another hour or two's pass, and by then...it'll be the real 6AM." Rainbow Dash waved off to say this in sounding confident.

"Oh my, I hope they don't realize it too soon." Fluttershy spoke in feeling concern about now.

Soon everyone goes back to work in keeping watch while seeing that Freddy's group are walking back in a robotic walk formation back to their areas. Cause to them, it's 6AM, and it's time to call it quits.

-------------------------

Meanwhile, Freddy's group were seen position on stage and Foxy return to Pirate's Cove. Time had already flown by since they arrived to not do anything. But then without warning, the evil puppet; Marionette, suddenly came onto the picture.

"What are you doing? You're supposed to be stalking & hunting for them ponies!" Marionette scolded these animatronics for what they are doing here.

The animatronics eyes glowed to move to look at the puppet, but that's about all they did do. The puppet groans in annoyance in seeing these costume fools believe they are done for the night.

"Ugh, listen up! You were tricked, you hear me? Check your own installed digital clocks, it'll tell you the TRUE time of the night!" Marionette explained the matter of where Freddy and crew have built in clocks to tell time, and tell them what the ACTUAL time is.

Soon Freddy's crew look to see a digital screen with a built in timer; and there it was, the real time: 4 AM. So then what was said was true, it was not 6AM, they were deceived.

"Now do you see it, now get off your bolted behinds, and get ta work here!" Marionette was lecturing these four to get cracking here. "Listen; capture Twilight's friend; that's bound to bring her out of hiding. GOT IT," He snapped off to get this through the bolt-for-brain animatronic figures to know what to do.

Freddy's crew growled in looking frustrated before they started to move freely again.

"Good...then get...GOING!" Marionette sounded please to see this before giving the loud command for this bunch to get moving.

Soon Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and then later Foxy, soon started to move off now to explore the restaurant. All while the evil puppet hid back in the shadows to snicker evilly, things will go just fine very soon now...

---------------

"Well, it won't be long before those creeps find out they've been had." Spike remarks as he looks through the cameras, seeing that the robots are moving in some of the shots, "And looks like I spoke too soon."

Rainbow looks through the camera, then found one image with a poster of Golden Freddy. She frowns while asking, "And who's the golden rip off of Freddy? I don't recall seeing him in here."

"Dashie, stop breathing down mah shoulder," Applejack snaps to Rainbow in annoyance, feeling deep breathing on her shoulder.

"Okay, first off, AJ. I don't breath down your shoulder without permission. Second, how the hay can I do that when I'm standing next to you?"

"And what's that stench?" Fluttershy ask, sniffing the air a bit. Something smells terrible in the security office.

The ponies and Spike pause then turns around slowly. Sure enough, there it is: Golden Freddy, the same creature that Twilight saw last night, glaring and growling at them, holding their microphone.

"Okay, I think we now know what Twilight saw last night." Spike said nervously. Golden Freddy roars as it takes its own head off.

"RUN AWAY BEFORE IT CRASH THE GAME!!!!" Pinkie screams in a panic.

The words "It's Me!" flashes in the group's eyes. Most of the Mane Five and Spike screams as they run out of the room, while the lights flashes throughout. When all is clear, Golden Freddy is gone and only Rarity remains!

After the others escaped from almost getting caught, Rarity knew her friends brought more attention to get the killer bots after them while the unicorn quickly brings out a box with a costume inside.

"Now it's up to me to save the day, just hope they believe my acting." Rarity responded to say to herself over the matter.

Soon the scene goes dark before Rarity is seen putting on an outfit that seems to..have a familiar 'bear' shape figure. What can it be, we shall find out.

-----------------

Twilight blinks as she is now in her mare self again. The Alicorn is still dreaming, in a white void of space.

"Where am I? Am I trapped here?" Twilight ask quietly and scared. "Is this my punishment?"

Twilight screams in alarm as Golden Freddy appears, growling as the words "It's Me!" shows up. That monster, the one whose outfit was worn by that purple stallion murderer; He's out to get her!

"Leave, GO AWAY!!!!" Twilight screams as she fires a Unicorn Burst at her. A flash appears as Golden Freddy appear. "Oh, why must it haunt me?"

"Because it is a hallucination, a figment of your fear and guilt," The familiar voice of Luna said gently as Twilight appears.

"Luna." Twilight said, sighing as she came over, nuzzling her aunt-in-law. "You saw what happened?"

"Yes, I do know the truth: of how you witnessed the murderer killed those innocent foals."

"That guilt...has been eating up inside me since I was a filly. It traumatized, making it hard for me to make friends while growing up. You must feel angry...that I never told anypony or the parents of what I saw."

"I am not angry, Twilight Sparkle." Luna said gently as she lifts the crying Twilight's chin up. "You were a little filly back then, you were traumatized. Any other foal would've been horrified by what you saw in that room years ago at Freddy’s. That stallion who dares call himself a pony has cut those poor foals down in red blood. I know how you feel, feeling guilty for the actions I had done."

"But you were possessed by Nightmare Moon! I wasn't." Twilight exclaims, tears form in her eyes. "Oh, what can I do?!"

"Confront your fears, Twilight. You must do so and stop the darkness that has been conquering Freddy Fazbear's Pizza for too long. The five innocent foals, their souls have been trapped in their robotic prisons for years. They must be set free."

Twilight pauses a bit. Luna is right. The five souls have been imprisoned inside, thanks to that killer...but did he put their bodies inside Freddy and his pals? Or was it...could it be...the Marionette?

"I think it's time I tell Celestia, my friends, my family the truth." Twilight said gently. She then did something...surprisingly. The Alicorn kisses Luna on the lips, making her blush.

"Oh, my," Luna exclaims, blushing a bit. "That was...unexpected."

"Well, I haven't got a filly-friend yet, Luna. Not officially anyway. Who knows? I may make that decision someday."

Luna smiles warmly then leans forward, kissing Twilight deeply. The purple Alicorn kisses her right back. If there's a way to end the nightmare on a romantic note, this is it.

----------------

Applejack, Rainbow, Fluttershy, Pinkie and Spike find themselves in the party room...and got cornered by Freddy and his pals. They are pissed for the deceit.

"All right, you broke the rules." Bonnie said sternly to the five.

"What rules?" Pinkie asks meekly, pretending not to know.

"You l-l-l-lie; It isn't nice to d-d-d-d-d-do that."

"We can f-f-f-f-forgive if you tell us where your princess is." Chica said in agreement.

"Arrr, make it quick lasses and lad!" Foxy growls, holding his hook near Spike's neck, making the baby Dragon gulps in fear. "We ain't be getting all night."

"Twilight isn't here!" Applejack exclaims to the robots with a frown. "She took 'de night off. Obviously after seeing 'dat Golden Freddy feller 'dat would've crashed 'de...GAH; Pinkie! Now yew is making me do it!"

"My bad," Pinkie said with a silly smile to her friend. Applejack is now adapting her friend's fourth wall breaking without knowing it. Who knew?

"I've had enough! If we can't get Twilight Sparkle to pay for our suffering, then YOU ALL WILL," Freddy snapped off to say this in what they do.

Hearing that made those that were caught look worried as Freddy held Rainbow in one paw, Foxy held Spike with his other hand with a hook nearby him, Bonnie held Fluttershy with his fluffy paws show sharp metal nails, and Chica held Applejack while bearing the duck's sharp teeth in the beak.

"Oh no....we're done for." Fluttershy gasped in seeing what happens now.

"At least Rarity got away." Applejack stated in knowing who made it out alive.

"Lucky for her, not much for US," Spike yelps to say this in knowing it's their end.

"TIME...TO PAY," Freddy sternly stated in what shall happen to Twilight's little buddies as they watch this slowly.

"Eeek," Rainbow Dash squealed in feeling that this was gonna be close...

"Frederick Jones Sinclair Bear," Suddenly, another voice came in and we see what looks like a costume of Freddy, but it look like an older woman. "What do you think you are doing, young bear?" She scolded Freddy in what was going on.

"Um...?" Freddy seem puzzled by this.

"And...you are...?" Rainbow Dash gasped off from being choked to see who was here.

"You heard your mother, drop that pony right now, mister!" The identified costume create said it was Freddy's mommy.

"MOTHER," The other ponies and Spike responded puzzled, even the animatronics seem shock to hear this.

"Just what sorta game were you playing here?" Mrs. FazBear scolds her child in seeing this.

"But....they were gonna pay for..." Freddy spoke in making an excuse...

"Don't talk that way to me, Frederick! Or would you rather I take away your little Mikey Mike for being bad!" Freddy's mom scolds to lecture the bear in what happens if he disobeys.

"Nooo; Not little Mikey Mike," Freddy yelps in not wanting to lose his microphone, he loves to sing.

"Then go back to your stage this instant!" Mrs. Freddy's Mom told her son what to do.

"Right now," Freddy asked in not wanting to do this, but...

"NOOOW," Mrs. FazBear snapped to which Freddy let go of Rainbow Dash. "And that goes for the rest of you too, or do I have to call your parents too?" She lectures Freddy's crew to let the others go, or she'll rat on their parents of their bad behavior.

Foxy, Chica & Bonnie yelp in fearing that thought and let go of their captives now. And then they all were leaving out the door, while Freddy's mom moves up closer to the gang until...

"So, how was my performance?" Mrs. FazBear spoke before unzipping herself to show....she was Rarity! "I say it got the job done." She smiled proudly at her acting work.

"Rarity; that was you?" Spike asked off surprise to see that.

"So 'dis here was yer secret plan?" AJ narrow her eyes at Dashie who must have plan for this.

"Yelp, ain't no way an evil killer robot would dare go against its own mother." Pinkie Pie nods off happily to admit what she and Rainbow did.

"Pinkie gave me the idea and I got Rarity to play the part just fine." Rainbow nods off in stating how they used this to help them out.

"At least it's over now..." Rarity sighs to say while removing the costume from herself.

"Um mom, can I ask something about where you been and why you're here now to..." Suddenly, as Freddy came back to check on his mom, he saw that Rarity removed her costume... "WHAT! ANOTHER TRICK," He yelled out in seeing that he was doped again, just like he was setup about his wife, now his own mother!

"Oh dear," Rarity yelped when she look back as did the others; the secret's out.

"GROOOAARRRRUGHHH," Freddy growls out loudly to attack Rarity with red eyes.

"Aaaaahhhhh," Rarity screams in terror as the others watch in about to see their friend be rip apart until...

Suddenly, a familiar bell rings along with children's laughter. The animatronic bear stops to almost attack Rarity to check the timer that said 6 AM. But as it check its own digital clock, it read the same thing, it was no trick this time, it was the REAL closure for the night shift. Soon Freddy moves off to return to his stage as he was programmed while everyone else watches him leave them behind.

"Oh, I feel faint." Rarity held her head in a dramatic pose before fainting from what almost happened to her.

-------------

Celestia was up, preparing to do what she always does: raise the sun every morning. The Alicorn of the Sun hopes that Twilight has a good night sleep.

Just then, Celestia saw Twilight coming up...and with Luna. The white pony sighs, coming over to nuzzle the purple one, "Twilight. Did you have a good night's sleep? I was going to wake you up but I see that you did so by yourself."

"I am fine, thanks to Luna." Twilight said with a smile. She then kisses Luna on the cheek, making her blush and surprising Celestia. "Listen...I'm going to come out, tell the truth now to you, my friends, mom, dad, Shining and Cadance. It's time that I stop hiding the truth."

"Uh, yes. I will make sure to let your friends and family know," Celestia pauses as she watches Twilight leaves, then glares at her sister. "Stealing my Twilight, sister?"

"She didn't have an official filly-friend yet, sister, don't get excited." Luna giggles to her sister, feeling a hint of jealousy from the Goddess of the Sun. "Also, who knows? We could even share her."

This causes Celestia to blush a bit, for different reasons. Her; Sharing her Twilight with her sister?

--------------------

"I am a bit disappointed in your performance last night." The Marionette said, floating the three robots back on stage. It isn't opening time yet so the puppet had time to speak to the four Animatronics. Foxy is behind the curtains once more as he is supposed to be. "You let some mare in a disguise fooled you, Freddy."

"But I thought she was my mother. I haven't seen her...since...since..." Freddy broke down, trying his best not to cry. He misses his mother, his mother from his days as a pony.

"We all do, Freddy." Chica said, patting Freddy on the back.

"Well, newsflash, I am your mother now, you four...and tomorrow night, when I want something done, DAMN IT, I WANT IT DONE RIGHT!" Marionette roars furiously, scaring his three little helpers as well as the hiding Foxy.

"Uh, yeah, I was thinking." Bonnie said, rubbing the back of his back in shame and thought. "We have been doing this for years...maybe those guards or ponies that got caught after hours aren't worth killing...or maybe they are just plain creatures, not endoskeleton without its outfit on..."

"Yeah, and what the pink pony said is true too." Freddy said, agreeing with Bonnie's train of thought around the same time that Chica and Foxy are. "I mean, maybe it isn't Twilight's fault...we should leave her and the other guards alone..."

"FOOLS," The Marionette roars furiously. He fires red waves at the Animatronics, causing them to scream in pain as they twitch and shake. "Have you forgotten who is it that gave you all the gift of life?! After that imposter took it away from you all and Golden Freddy?!"

"You...you did...."

"Yes! I could've left you all to die on the floor that same day, but I feel pity for you all...being killed like I was years ago outside of Fredbear's Family Diner when that same killer took my life away...while Freddy, before I put the soul in, was busy giving out cake that same day!"

"I remembered...the robot remembered." Freddy said, groaning and bending to the Marionette's will.

"Granted, I give you credit for putting the last body inside of Golden Freddy who is now a mindless drone in an empty outfit with no endoskeleton inside! A way to stick it to the killer and everyone else here," The Marionette snarls to the robots, zapping them some more. "BUT THAT ISN'T THE POINT RIGHT NOW! I GAVE YOU ALL LIFE AGAIN AND I CAN TAKE IT AWAY! DO YOU WANT THAT?!"

"No, no!" Chica exclaims as Bonnie shakes his head while twitching.

"Then either Twilight Sparkle dies by the end of the fifth night or I will have to take drastic measures to extended the night myself! And if that fails, your lives are forfeit! Do I make myself...clear?!"

The Marionette zaps Freddy again, making his eyes glow black. The bear mumbles, "Yeah...sure, whatever you say..."

Pinkie Pie's Note:

Poor Marky, He had to go through 6 nights, Seven if you count the custom night, I hope we don't get the 6th night, cause we had enough torture as it is... so enjoy the story!

Chapter 6: Extend the Nights

The train from the Crystal Empire pulls in at the Canterlot train station. Upon arrival, the doors open to allow passengers in and out of the passenger cars. Two specific ones came out, having been summoned by Celestia to help with a certain matter.

"It's great to be back in Canterlot again after a while." Cadance said with a sigh, cleaning her wings off. "I just hope Twilight is doing fine before we get here."

"What shocks me is that she is hanging out at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza after so many years." Shining said, shaking her head a bit. "With that place in its final year...years after the Missing Foals Incident and the Incident Bite..."

"Yes, I know. Maybe...maybe we can finally find out what happened there that terrified Twilight years ago; If she is ready to talk."

"Right now, let's not think on that, Cadance. Twilight needs our support more than ever."

The leaders of the Crystal Empire got into a carriage that Celestia had send for them then rode it through town before stopping right at the castle. Once they get out, Shining and Cadance got out and came into the castle; knowing the place by heart, the couple head down the hallway to the throne room. Shining's parents Night Light and Twilight Velvet, along with Twilight's friends and Spike are waiting.

"Mom, dad," Shining said, coming over to hug his folks. "I supposed you came here as well."

"Yes, we are." Twilight Velvet said with a nod. "The princess said that our little filly has something she has to say, concerning Freddy's."

"Speaking of which, what happened?" Cadance ask Twilight's friends in worry. "Auntie Celestia told me that something happened at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza that spooked her good."

Before the Mane Five would explain, they saw three familiar princesses entering through the back door of the throne. Twilight came over, smiling to her family who came over and hug her, relieved that she appears to be doing okay. That third night at Freddy's has her shaken.

"Twilight, are you okay?" Night Light asks his daughter in concern.

"I am." Twilight said as she lets go from the hug, coming over to the Royal Sisters. "Ahem, after a good night's sleep and some advice from Princess Luna...it's time I come out with the truth."

"Is it you're bi now? We all know that by now." Pinkie said with a scoff, surprising Twilight's family.

"Err, no. It isn't that...it's something I was keeping all these years..."

Twilight sighs a bit, breathing in and out. The Alicorn then kiss Luna and Celestia on the cheek each, surprising almost everyone as the Royal Sisters appears to be blushing.

"You are into both princesses now?" Rarity asks Twilight in amazement, "Oh my. You are turning into quite a fillies’ mare."

"What's next? You have a crush on Cadance?" Rainbow asks Twilight. Needless to say, Shining and Cadance yelps a bit at this, though the pink Alicorn appears to be blushing.

"No, no....well, okay, I had a crush on her when I was little but I got over it." Twilight insists to Rainbow, assuring her friend that she had a thing for her foal sitter but the filly got over it. "Plus, she's married to my brother now so why would I want to go after her?"

"Oh, thank Celestia," Shining said, relieved to hear that.

"Although, when your brother's dead, Twiley, give me a call." Cadance teases, giving a flirting wink to Twilight.

"Cadance!"

"I was joking, Shining; relax."

Twilight decided to get back to the story before there's any more distraction, "Listen up, years ago when I was a filly...Shining and Cadance took me to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza...something happened there to me that terrified me that I wouldn't speak of it for years...until now."

"Well, don't keep us in suspense, girl." Applejack urges Twilight to go on. "What was it 'dat spooked yer horses?"

"You see, after I got my tokens to play games, I looked around...and saw some foals following a stallion in a Golden Freddy outfit to the Backstage area. He promised them something special...I wanted one too...so I decided to sneak in."

"What," Night Light yells out, slapping a hoof to his face in disbelief. "You went into the Backstage without...un...Shining! Why didn't you keep an eye on her?"

"Dad! She was a smart filly. I figured she would do fine on her own!" Shining exclaims to his father, blushing in embarrassment.

"Still, I followed them into the backstage area, hiding behind a table. I was ready to make my appearance...when...when..." Twilight sobs a bit, tears coming out. The memory of that day emerged in her eyes. She swallows a bit then continues, "That imposter...he killed those foals! Stabbing them, breaking their necks...ripping their guts out! It was..."

Twilight sobs a bit. Celestia came over, putting a wing on her fellow princess to comfort her. The others look stunned. Now they understood what spook Twilight good. She saw what happened to those five missing foals years ago.

"Thank you." Twilight said as she wipes the tears from her own eyes. "I was so terrified that after it was over, I teleport out of there. I've never spoke of it since. I know you're upset that I witnessed a massive murder and I should've told ponies about it...or where the bodies are..."

"Twilight...it's okay." Twilight Velvet said calmly as she came over, hugging her daughter. "You were a little filly. You were traumatized. Believe me, what that monster did...was unforgivable."

Luna uses her magic to bring the Royal Guards' mug shots book over, flipping it to a page before stopping. The Alicorn points to a picture, saying, "Princess Twilight Sparkle. I want your help on this. Is this the stallion, the one who is the killer?"

Twilight looks at a picture. It is of a purple unicorn stallion with a scar on his face, giving out a mean look. The Alicorn shudder, she had never forgotten what happened when the imposter removes his Golden Freddy outfit head before finishing off the final colt that day.

"Yes, it is him." Twilight said seriously.

"His name is Rough House." Shining said, glancing at the picture. Being the former Captain of the Royal Guards, he knows every criminal in Canterlot that was arrested or still at large. "He was arrested sometime after the foals went missing. He was a security guard at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza."

"Oh dear. Maybe that's why the restaurant couldn't keep guards for more than a while." Fluttershy said shuddering. "That stallion...he looks mean."

"Wait, what did he done 'ta 'de foals?" Applejack ask in concern. "Ah mean, if them bodies were never found..."

"Girls; Remember what Rarity complained about the smell? Just think." Twilight said seriously to her friends. "Why were the robots after me and why did they smell funny; Where do you think that the bodies went after Rough House killed the foals?!"

A dawn of realization hits everyone as the Mane Five and Spike's eyes widen in horror, Cadance made a shocked gasp, Shining looks a bit sick while the parents were shocked and outraged. Even Celestia looks stunned when she came to the conclusion. Luna already came to it during her trip into Twilight's dream.

"You mean...the bodies...they are inside the robots?!" Spike yelps to Twilight, feeling horrified to hear that.

"Yes, that's why they are hurting, why they are after me. The souls of the foals are trapped inside those robots." Twilight said seriously to her friends.

"Wait, we think that Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy have four of the souls inside them." Rarity said with a thought. "But where's the fifth one?"

"Rarity! Duh! Hello? Golden Freddy has the fifth soul inside him!" Pinkie exclaims to Rarity, scared. "But he is now a mindless drone of sorts."

"Yes, the corpses...that explains these articles." Celestia said as she uses her magic to levitate two more articles which everyone begins to read.

“Local pizzeria threatened with shutdown over sanitation”

Local pizzeria, Freddy Fazbear's Pizza has been threatened again with shutdown by the health department over reports of foul odor coming from the much-loved animal mascots.

The Royal Guard was contacted when parents reportedly noticed what appeared to be blood and mucus around the eyes and mouths of the mascots. One parent alikened them to "reanimated carcasses".

“Local pizzeria said to close by year's end.”

After a long struggle to stay in business after the tragedy that struck there many years ago, Freddy Fazbear's Pizza has announced that it will close by year's end.

Despite a year-long search for a buyer, companies seem unwilling to be associated with the company.

"These characters will live on. In the hearts of foals, these characters will live on." - CEO

Everyone finishes reading the article were finished. The smells coming from the robots...it's the smell of corpses that are inside the robots for too long.

"The same story happened matches what happened before the incident." Celestia said with a sigh, shaking her head.

"What do you mean, Auntie Celestia?" Cadance ask Celestia puzzled. Is there more to this?

"Yes. The restaurant itself used to be called "Fredbear's Family Diner". During a time of operation, one foal disappeared. Soon after, a couple of incidents occurred, which resulted in some more foals' deaths that caused the place to close down the first time."

"Why wasn't it reported?" Twilight ask Celestia in surprise. She never knew about this until now.

"It was still under investigation." Celestia admits to Twilight with a sigh. "There's more...but you wouldn't believe it."

"I don't understand." Shining said in concern as he remembers something else. "When Rough House was brought in, he said that he doesn't know what happened to the bodies. They disappeared right after that."

"So someone else must've put the bodies in the robots!" Pinkie gasps in surprise, narrowing her eyes a bit, "The fiend!"

"But who else could it be?" Spike asks. If Rough House didn't put the bodies in the Animatronics, who else is there?

"There is another party involved...a Puppet." Twilight said, recalling the Marionette that she keeps seeing a few times.

"That creepy thing that was at Prize Corner," Night Light yelps a bit. The memory of that Marionette still creep him out to this day.

"Yes. He was at the restaurant during our week. And my friends must've seen him too. The Marionette must've put the foals' bodies in the robots, giving them life and is using them to kill the security guards or any other innocent ponies, all because of what Rough House had done. He blamed all of pony kind for failing the victims."

The whole room went silent. The fact that all this time, the restaurant and the Animatronics had fallen to the influence of a Puppet all these years...it's terrifying.

Twilight was the first to spoke up, "We need more answers to this. We need to contact the Phone Guy."

"Uh, sorry, sugar cube, 'dat ain't gotta happen." Applejack said in a scared tone of voice. "We heard his fourth phone call last night; 'De Animatronics got him. He's probably plum in another suit by now."

"Then we must find the security guard who was working the night shift around the same time the foals were murdered, as well as when the Incident Bite happened."

"I know who that is. It's Jeremy Hoofsphere." Shining said, recalling the name of the guard who went to work to Freddy's around the same time that Twilight witnessed the murders. "He started working there around the same time. I could talk to him, see what he knows."

"Then tomorrow, we are going back to Freddy's." Twilight said in determination.

"Twilight, I don't know. I don't want you to get killed. You shouldn't go back there." Twilight Velvet said in terror. She wouldn't forgive herself if her only daughter gets killed, trying to put a stop to mad robots that are under control of a mad Marionette Puppet!

"I have to, mother. Those souls of the five foals have suffered long enough. I must put an end to the mystery...tonight!"

------------------------

Twilight's parents, as well as Shining and Cadance, could not talk her out of going back. Twilight in the past would've been too scared and would've listened...but the mare isn't going to run away anymore. She has revealed the truth and it's time to finish the final night, putting an end to the madness once and for all.

While Shining works on contacting Jeremy, Twilight, Spike, and their friends came back to Freddy's. The seven peeks in in case their former friends wanted to ambush them then quickly heads back to the office. This time, Twilight isn't going to run away. This time, she will face her fears and put an end to the Marionette's corrupted control over the five souls...even if it means facing Golden Freddy, whose holds the last soul which is now a mindless drone. As the girls prepare the doors, Twilight peeks on the cameras.

As the fifth Night is near, Pinkamena was sitting at a table near the stage with her blade in hand as the music box was playing its tune. She sees Freddy walking to her as he is about to speak but the mare stops him and says, "I know you’re going to tell me it is not going to be safe since now Marionette is hunting me and also I know you and others killed the one helping the ponies. Also about Twilight not being here on the fourth night, that monster Golden Freddy appeared and I have a feeling you know what that lead to."

Freddy cringes to that recalling the third night and about Golden Freddy. He then says, "Look, they survived again from using many traps and such and also I still kept the Pinkie Promise." Pinkmamena calms but keeps her firm stern look.

"I know but also I am bringing somepony you might know to see if you, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy are willing to redeem yourselves but for now see you next night Freddy." Pinkamena then gathers her things and heads off as she stops and turns looking at the Camera and says. "it was never their fault Twilight; deep down in your heart, you know it. I know you will make things right for everypony. I and my brother will see you soon."

Pinkamena then walks more and her tail twitches. She walks back and some strings with hooks had fallen. The pink pony then grabs the strings with her teeth and yanks down as a screech is heard. The same Golden Freddy falls crashing into the ground hard as she then walks over it and climbs into the Vent. Freddy walks back onto stage and he and the others ready for the fifth night.

12:00 AM, 5th Night

At the sudden moment, lightning was flash with the sound of thunder, as it impacted the restaurant once again on the fifth night. The motion caused those in the control room to yelp, but the electricity soon went its course, as it came into contact with Freddy and his buds. From getting another super-charge, their eyes flash red, as they felt another boost to move. And back in the office, those that handle what happened wonder what this meant, but it's clear as day by now.

"Okay Pinkie, what does it say about their levels now?" Rainbow Dash sighed in having a bad feeling again of what they are bound to face.

"Well I prefer good news to bad, but here it is. Looks like on the fifth night, Freddy's Level 16, Foxy is Level 15, and Bonnie & Chica are both Level 14." Pinkie Pie check the level meter on the animatronics current course of function.

"Oh my, that does sound bad." Fluttershy gasped in feeling worried now.

"Be glad they ain't up ta level 20, if they are at max, then we're sunk." Applejack quoted on the fact if the killer robots get up to that strength, then they are almost history.

"Gulp, I just hope we really have things all plan out. We were lucky to get by the fourth night when Twilight was out." Spike swallowed hard in fearing what to face now that won't be as easy as last night.

"That's why I'm here you guys, we have to get to the bottom of this mystery by surviving our full five days here." Twilight issued forth this serious matter that this time, she will stick around and not run off scared; she won't be afraid now.

The others nod their heads while getting to their stations, it's time they survive the fifth night here. And hopefully, they can get by it too.

The phone rang as the Mane Six and Spike looked on in concern.

"Girls, you said that the Phone Guy is dead, right?" Twilight asked her friends, spooked.

"Yes." Fluttershy said, slowly nodding.

"Then, who is calling," Twilight asked, a bit frightened. If the Phone Guy is dead, who was calling?

The seven waited until the answering machine picked it up. They heard something in a deep, garble, Demonic-sounding voice, followed by some screeching noises.

Rainbow groaned, "If this is a joke, I don't like it."

The call ended in static along with another screech. Rarity, in concern, asked, "What kind of message...is that?"

"Hang on." Twilight said as she tampers with the answering machine, then begins playing the message backwards and slowly. "There we go."

Some parts of the message is messed up but some of it can be understood, "...it is lamentable that mass agricultural development is...speeded by fuller use of your marvelous mechanisms. Would it not be easily possible to employ some of them in quick laboratory experiments to indicate the influence of various types of fertilizers on plant growth? You are right. Countless uses...will be made by future gener-...seldom knows contemporaneous...the joy of creative..."

The backwards message ends on two backward phone rings before stopping.

"Experiments," Spike asked a bit nervously.

"I think I know that passage. It's an excerpt from the book 'Autography of a Yogi'." Twilight said thoughtfully, "Have any of you read it?"

"If it ain't Daring Do, it ain't worth reading." Rainbow remarked with a scoff.

Freddy was heard laughing, making Pinkie yelp, "Freddy's off the stage and is in the Dining Room."

Twilight checked on Pirate's Cove. Foxy was still there, having come out. She quickly closed the right door.

"That way, Chica and Freddy won't try to get in." Twilight explained to her friends.

Rarity pressed the light for the left door. No sign of anyone, the unicorn said, "Everything's clear."

Twilight checked the camera for the Dining Room; Freddy's in the dark...literally. She then checked the Kitchen. Again, no audio but noises of pans being kicked were heard. Chica must be in there.

Twilight then checked the camera for the West Hall. There's Bonnie, standing there and just staying there.

"Yikes! There's Bonnie!" Twilight yelped.

Freddy was heard laughing loudly. Twilight checked the camera for the Restrooms. Freddy was in the fillies' room.

"Why is he in 'de fillies' room?" Applejack asked, a hint of annoyance heard in her tone of voice. "'Dat Freddy is weirder than a sack full o' rattlesnakes."

Twilight checked the cameras again. Bonnie was now in the Backstage, looking around. He didn't even see the endoskeleton there. This proves it. The putting endoskeletons into suits weren't the reason. They were souls, corrupted by the Marionette.

Twilight now checked the camera for Pirate's Cove. The curtain was open...and a sign was there saying, 'It's me!' She quickly checked the camera for the West Hall in time to see Foxy rushing down it, heading towards the office.

"Yikes!" Fluttershy screamed out frantically. "Close the door."

"Maybe not; Pinkie, do you have a flashlight I could borrow?" Twilight asked Pinkie, getting an idea.

"Yep," Pinkie exclaimed as she pulled out a flashlight, giving it to Twilight. "Why?"

Just then, Foxy peeked in, screeching, "You're mine!"

Suddenly, Foxy screamed as Twilight flashed the light in Foxy's face. She snapped, "Get lost, pirate fox!"

"ARRRR! BRIGHT LIGHT, BRIGHT LIGHT! RESETTING..." Foxy growled, freaking out as he left the office, trying to recover from the light.

"Take that!" Twilight shouted in triumph.

"How did you know?" Spike asked Twilight, surprised.

"Shining told me how the security office once used a flashlight to flash a light at the robots, causing them to be reset and leave them alone when a mask isn't used." Twilight explained to Spike proudly.

Freddy was heard laughing once more. Twilight checked the camera for the Kitchen. Freddy's jingle was heard which means the bear was in there as well.

Spike checks the lights for the East Hall. The window brightens a moment, exposing Chica who glares at them through it.

"Looks like them killer bots are almost gonna get through!" Applejack stated in seeing by their camera feedback, the killer robots are almost upon them now.

"And though we help reset those traps again, that awful puppet disarmed them when he found out." Rarity complained that they set the same traps to stall those animatronics, the puppet creature managed to disarm them, now it's just unfair.

"Good thing we got a secret weapon. Pinkie Pie, are they ready?" Rainbow smiled off to say this in having a secret weapon to unveil here.

"Ready!" Pinkie Pie saluted to bring forth what look like fifteen megaphones connecting to each other from the front to the inside speaker and so forth.

"Rainbow, where did you get fifteen megaphones?" Twilight raised an eyebrow in seeing this as this seem to puzzle her mind.

"There was a sale, and when Pinkie Pie was testing them a Joke’s Market, she had two together that...and interesting discovery.” Rainbow Dash made a sly smile on her face in discovering something to help them get by another night.

"Um, what kinda discovery," Spike asked off in feeling concern suddenly.

"You'll see..." Rainbow Dash stated with a sly smile, as she had the megaphones set between the front doors of the office.

"Better hurry, they're coming near the doors." Rarity stated in seeing Freddy's crew were nearly upon them.

"Good thing I soundproofed the system. Cause on Dashie's signal, I’ll open the doors." Pinkie Pie smiled off to say this while getting set.

"What does 'dat have 'ta do with..." Applejack was about to ask until she was cut...

"Oh no....COVER YOUR EARS!" Twilight yelped in realizing what this plan would turn out to be and it might be an over-the-top plan to affect them, too!

Rainbow Dash soon licked her lips, getting ready to do this thing. Then, as the daredevil pony came near the megaphones, she gave a wink to Pinkie Pie, in feeling so pinkie-keen, that she unlocked both doors. The gang except Rainbow Dash ran off to duck behind some miniature fort they made with the megaphones in the front. Soon, snarling and growling is heard, as Freddy, Foxy, Bonnie and Chica came from both door sides, they glared at spotting Twilight to approach, but... The bots noticed Rainbow Dash and 15 megaphones together, puzzled what this was until...it happened.

"TESTING," Rainbow Dash shouted this word out at her absolute loudest voice possible before...

"BOOMFRUVHHMMMM...." A sudden SUPER-SHOCKWAVE erupted from the speakers, and blasted the daring pony off backwards to her pals while the same air pressure force impacted Freddy's gang. That impact alone blasted the killer robots far out of the room like they were nothing and were seen blown so far, that they crash throw the walls with many 'SMASHES', and 'CRASHES', and 'BASHES', ugh, they were sparking so much that when they all got sent to the far back of the restaurant, they were seen screeching in pain while holding their heads: their servos were short-circuiting from that powerful sound wave. The force, however was so strong, it was echoing 'Testing' repetitively from Rainbow's voice, and it not only broke off parts of the office, but spreaded out to break off some windows outside the building and the force of the sound wave blew off tree leaves.

Even the Marionette that was inside soon got hit with that megaphone force that was causing him to ache.

"AARRRRUUGHH; WHAT IS THAT HORRID NOOOOOOISE?" Marionette screeched out to fall on the ground, he was short-circuiting from being unable to get up. He was left to be just immobile now.

Even Pinkamena who was outside the restaurant yelps to cover her ears.

"YIIIIIIKES; THE NOISE; THE NOOOOOISE!" Pinkamena screeched out in being unable to do much, what were the ponies doing; trying to stop the killer robots or make everyone go deaf?

But that didn't stop there, no, Rainbow's plan ended up going out of the restaurant to affect the residences of Equestria, too. A nearby pet shop’s window got busted from the largest voice, and soon, the parrots were repeating 'Testing' from hearing Rainbow's echoed voice. In a laboratory area, an octopus was in its case until...the sound waves of Rainbow's 'Testing' voice broke the glass, and the octopus pet launched onto its owner's face, much to his shock. Even in Canterlot Castle, Shining Armor was there in checking the guard's galley to get a bottle of apple cider for his troops until...He heard Rainbow's echo ‘Testing’ voice that brought the windows, and caused all the cider bottles to break off that made the stallion yelp as the air pressure blew a lot of chairs off; Shiny didn't know WHAT was going on.

The ear-splitting force was making many ponies that were trying to sleep woke up, yelling, "TURN THAT OFF!/WHAT IS THAT NOISE?/AH! MY WINDOWS/MY GLASS FIGURE COLLECTION," and so many other complaints at this time.

And even as we speak, practically an hour and a half went by that the ever continuing echo noises was causing everything to give fleshies and even killer bots problems to work when they can't stand that lasting noise. The ringing was going so far that nobody could handle it, it was enough to cause more disturbance than...well, let's just say everyone was having hard times.

"RAINBOW; AH THINK YA OVERDONE IT 'DIS TIIIIME!" Applejack shouted off over the loud ringing going on.

"WHAAAAAT," Rainbow Dash yelled out in being unable to hear.

"WHEN WILL THIS RINGING STOP?" Rarity shouted off in wanting to know when this effect from fiften megaphones stops the backlash ring effect.

"IT'S HARD TO SAY!" Twilight yelled out in being unable to think over this loud ringing.

"I CERTAINLY HOPE SO!” Spike yelled out in prying this will end, they rather try surviving killer bots than deal with this earsplitting noise.

"WHAAAAAT," Pinkie Pie called out, not hearing what Spike said.

"I SAID, I...HOPE...SOOOOOO!" Spike came up to yell in the pink pony's ear to hear him.

"WHHHAAAAAT," Pinkie Pie yelled out, still not hearing.

Finally, after a few short minutes now, the ringing finally cease being heard now. As peace, AND QUIET, returned to everyone. The Mane Six gang sighed with relief in having heard the last of that ear-splitting noise.

"Oh, glad that's over." Rarity sighed to say this in being grateful now.

“WHAAAAA,?” Pinkie Pie shouted out, still being unable to hear anything for the time being.

"Maybe not all of us yet," Twilight rolled her eyes to sigh in feeling exhausted in what effected them too.

"You guys, check this out." Rainbow Dash spoke off to notice that from a camera's view, all of Freddy's crew was smashed through to a wall that was within the stage center and looked buried, sparking and looking like they'll shut down any moment from their twitches. "My plan worked! Those bots look so beat up, they look like they could barely move." She smiled with pride, looks like that crazy stunt worked out after all.

"Well, let's hope they don’t move while we fix up 'de office here." Applejack issued off to say in hoping they could get some work done here.

Now the gang tried to help fix the place and check on how much equipment was gonna be running here, and also check on their power supply. Right now, they'll be lucky that when this night's over that they weren't getting millions of complaints from ponies that woke up in the middle of the night by that noise, especially when Celestia would be sleeping now.

---------------------

Meanwhile, after a half hour to about an hour passed by, the Marionette was seen struggling to crawl himself on the floor, feeling pretty much looking like that after-shockwave noise took a lot out of him. But then, as he entered the stage room to see Freddy and the gang half buried and looked like their optics are shut off, that got him mad to see that again, their prey was keeping them from killing the prime target.

"Ugh, once again, those ponies are defying what I want." Marionette growled in annoyance as he stood up and approached the other bots. "Wake up, you useless piles of JUNK!" He snapped off to command those that were stuck snap to it.

Freddy's gang slowly flashed their eyes as they heard the puppet call them. Slowly from their rusted and spark joints, push themselves off and out of the rubble. But they seem worse for wear than that time one of their customers got burned.

"Ugh, what happened?" Bonnie moaned.

"I have an ear-splitting headache in my mainframe." China held her head in feeling like the ringing was still there.

"Argh, this be worse than hearing a banshee cry." Foxy groaned to say in feeling like they just survived the worse impact of the week.

"Nincombots; Metal Morons; Idiots; Robotic rejects," Marionette was marching around the spot in scolding and insulting Freddy and the gang here upon this messy state they are in, "Seditious slabs of insalubrious circuitry!” He used a pretty big word that not many even knew what it meant. "You...You...You...nincombots," Marionette snapped off loudly in using the same insult again when in front of Freddy's crew.

"Excuse me, puppet guy we work for, you already said that." Freddy spoke off in making this reminder here.

"Then allow me to repeat myself...YET AGAIN!" Marionette got up to Freddy's face in about to make the same repeat in sarcasm that he used one word too many times. "YOU ARE NINCOMBOTS!" He then yelled straight at Freddy and the gang's faces that felt that angry tone in the puppet's voice.

As he backed off, much of Freddy's gang fell on their bottoms on the rubble before slowly picking themselves up. They could see that the Marionette was very upset over this new drawback in getting Twilight, now look at the state they were in.

"How am I gonna get this job done with such unreliable help? This is the fifth night, and we're getting whooped here." Marionette sat down in a table's chair to complain in seeing that they are not getting anywhere, the ponies were surviving and it's driving them, especially him, crazy, "Okay, new plan! Capture at least ONE creature you find, and I don't care who, but make sure they see it and put them in a SUIT! Let them see what will happen to them when we capture them!" The puppet issued off in wanting Freddy's crew to get at least one flesh being, and show the ponies in the office that they mean business in wanting to kill their prey.

"But they're locked in the office!" China pointed out the problem of the plan.

"JUST DO IT!" Marionette yelled out to flash red lightning beams off its hands in terrifying the killer robots to get moving and no back talking.

"I'm not complaining!" Bonnie yelped to say this in looking terrified now.

"Argh, me neither!" Foxy nodded in agreement, also now scared.

Soon, Freddy's gang quickly get out of their spot and slowly stomped their metal feet. Sparks still flew off their bodies as they were a bit damaged and would give them a harder time to move from the damage they suffered. But they knew better than to upset the puppet, so they'd have to do as they are told or else.

-----------

The ponies saw on the camera where Freddy's crew were stationed and saw they were not there anymore.

“So much for staying down," Spike stated in seeing the killer robots were coming back up again.

“We still have time before it's 6:00 AM. Just another 3 hours to go." Twilight issued in how much more they needed to keep being alive.

“Good thing I also set up the decoy plan!” Pinkie Pie smiled forth in announcing what else she did to help out.

"Decoy," The Mane Five and Spike asked in confusion, not knowing what that could be.

"Hey, look." Fluttershy pointed in seeing something about to happen on one camera that earn their attention.

----------------

We see Foxy walking across the hall, when he heard the door near him make noise. He leans near to hear voices of the pony crew and saw this was his chance.

"Gotcha, you little...what," Foxy spoke off to open the door, but yelps in seeing some battery shake toys, a cassette player recording, and a wire sensor near a bomb; wait, what was the last thing again?

"BOOM," Then an explosion happened that blasted Foxy to smash through another wall, looking covered in smog.

"Argh, this be de pink pony’s tricks, she’s a scurvy knave fer sure." Foxy groaned to say this before a piece of concrete fell and bashed him on the metal noggin, knocking him out.

------------------

The six watched what happened on the camera, making them laugh out loud.

"Got to admit, that worked out fine." Twilight said to Rainbow proudly.

"But what happens when they come in here?" Fluttershy asked Rainbow and Pinkie worried.

"No worries. I got that covered." Pinkie said happily.

----------------------------

In another hallway, Freddy, Bonnie and Chica were looking around. Freddy and his crew suddenly heard Twilight and the others voices in a closet space. They moved in to attack, but as they prepared to strike, they saw that it was only a tape recording with some moving toys to make it look like they were inside. And they searched for where Twilight and friends were, they heard voices, but they kept finding more fakes trying to distract them.

Foxy passed by, smirking as he heard noises from the kitchen. The fox smirked while saying, "I got ye now, lasses and lad!"

Foxy broke into the kitchen and rushed in...to see a huge metal pipe swinging his way.

"Oops." Foxy said sheepishly.

The metal pipe smacked into Foxy sending him right out of the kitchen and into some equipment stacked nearby, making a huge mess.

"Arrr." Foxy groaned as he got out of the mess, groaning. "I haven't been this messed up...since the Bite..."

---------------

Celestia sighs, shaking her head as she looks out onto the balcony. The Alicorn is looking towards the direction of the part of Canterlot where Freddy's at. Her beloved Twilight shouldn't go back tonight...not without her. What if the remaining night ends up ending so badly?

Celestia heads back inside as Luna approaches her, saying, "Sister, it is almost 5 AM. Are you a bit affected by the sonic wave as I am?"

"Almost but I got over it. Twilight and her friends must be going for something new." Celestia said. She gave a serious frown. "Luna? I think..."

"Yes. After Shining Armor comes back with his questioning of Jeremy Hoofsphere, we shall go over to Freddy's. Even if Princess Twilight Sparkle is assigned there, we can't let her face those Animatronics alone, even with the rest of the Elements of Harmony helping her."

"Indeed. We both care for her. It's about time I get off my flank and go help her."

Both the Royal Sister looks at each other seriously. They are both in love with the new princess. Even though they are a bit annoyed about the fact that their beloved has a crush on them both, the two sisters always put aside those kind of things to help ponies in need. Celestia and Luna decided that it's time Twilight will decide who she will be with on her own time.

Shining came in, speaking, "Princesses Celestia and Luna," He bows to the two just as Cadance came in as well. "I just came back from my visit with Jeremy."

"Well, don't keep up in suspense. What was it?" Celestia ask Shining anxiously. Maybe now, there will be some answers to this mystery further.

Suddenly the lights in the room begins going on and out, much to the notice of everyone. This doesn't look normal. When the lights are turned on, Cadance gasps in horror as a familiar Marionette appears, glaring at the two Royal Sisters. They, along with Shining, stood their ground, knowing what they're up against...but mostly Celestia and Luna!

"You," Shining exclaims angrily, making his horn shin with power. "I know who you are: you're that bucking Puppet! You got some nerve coming here, leaving Freddy's, after trying to go after my sister, Spike and their friends! Well, enough already! Leave Twilight alone! Are you even going to say anything?!"

The Marionette chuckles madly. Luna said sternly, "Marionette, don't think we don't know who you truly are. You aren't a regular Marionette...you are a Dar..."

Before Luna could finishes, the room's lights flashes on and off once more...and soon, in pops Golden Freddy. He disappears for a moment...then his head is thrown at the Alicorns and Shining, roaring in fury...

----------------------

"Guys! I just saw something on one of the monitors!" Spike spoke off in seeing something just moved.

"What is it Spike? Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy, who," Twilight asked in fearing of any of those bots could come at them.

"It's...it's....Angel!" Spike was looking at the camera, but responded confused at who it was.

That got everyone to look at the camera in seeing that Angel Bunny, Fluttershy's pet was on the restaurant floor, tapping it's foot impatiently to look at the camera, as if saying 'I'm waiting here' for the gang to notice.

"Wha in Sam Hill is dat rabbit doing here?" AJ asked off in what the little critter was doing here in the middle of the night.

"Oh my, I forgot, before leaving, I forgot to prepare Angel's favorite late night snack! He must want it before going to bed!" Fluttershy gasped in surprise in just realizing what she forgot to do at home and Angel must have come by because he wants his treat.

"We're in a restaurant with killer animatronics and he just walks in here thinking to find you and leave?" Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes in remarking how crazy this all seems.

"Well, maybe the killer robots will think he's made of stuffing and leave him alone." Pinkie Pie shrug off to say of the thing that maybe Freddy's group won't bother the rabbit.

But then without warning as Angel was waiting, a familiar hook from Foxy soon snatched the bunny out of there while he made an 'EEP' reaction and expression.

"ANGEEEEEEEL," Fluttershy screamed out in putting her face to the monitor in seeing what happened to her pet.

"Or not," Pinkie Pie remarked off her earlier claim.

"Oh no, they might think Angel needs to be put in a costume. They're taking him to the costume storage room!" Twilight gasped in realizing what could happen to Angel pretty soon now, if Freddy's group found someone, they think it was one of them and need to stuff the person in a costume that has sharp metal stuff inside that forcing one in could kill a pony.

"Oh Fluttershy, I'm so sorry for what's about to happen to....Fluttershy?" Rarity was saying in feeling awful for her friend, until...something seem wrong.

The others look around to find Fluttershy not in the room, and for that matter; WHY WAS THE RIGHT DOOR OPEN?

"Ugh, guys....she's rushing down the hall!" Spike pointed to a monitor showing the image of Fluttershy soaring down the hallway really fast like she's in a hurry.

"HAS SHE LOST IT; those things will kill her and stuff her in those smelly suits!" Rainbow Dash yelled out in thinking that Fluttershy's crazy to face those killer things alone.

"Come on, we can't leave her like dat!" AJ issued off in trying to be brave here.

"Quick! Grab something and march forth!" Pinkie Pie stated to grab a frying pan to help protect herself.

"Twilight, how much time do we have?" Rarity asked her smart friend of how long do they have left for this night.

"5 minutes until 6 AM. I only pray our friends can live long enough till then." Twilight explained the case of how long they have, it's only 5:55 AM, just five more minutes and they survive another night; IF they are all together that is?

Now everyone quickly rushes out of the room to help save Fluttershy before she ends up becoming the next attraction to this place....and it won't be pretty.

-----------------

We find Freddy and his gang in the animal costume storage area. Foxy held Angel in his clutches as the rabbit was struggling to free itself, but it was no use. Chica found some little costume toy they can put Angel in....an ugly rat costume that had some metal robot parts inside it; this caused the bunny to gasp and was really trying hard to escape in not liking where this was going.

"HOLD IT!" Fluttershy's angry upset voice was heard that disturbed this scene.

That's when the animatronics turn in seeing someone had come up behind them. And there was Fluttershy, but even as they growl and snarl to show their scary features, for some reason...the shy mare was not scared. Instead, Fluttershy seem to look serious and then was walking up near Freddy.

"Now I know you all are trying to be mean, scary, and are after Twilight for unknown reasons, besides the fact that you're angry at her for witnessing the killer's murder of you years ago!" Fluttershy was lecturing the bear bot about the matter of what he and his pals were doing. "But that is no way a reason to take a helpless animal and stuff him in a costume with sharp pointy robot parts! Do you understand!" Fluttershy was flying up to Freddy's optic eyes to give him...THE STARE in issuing that she wants this guy to not harm Angel.

It took Freddy a moment to see this action and see how determined Fluttershy was about what they were doing. And so when it look like nothing was gonna move, something did happen.

"Okay, we won't hurt the rabbit." Freddy casually said this in seeing the point to spare Angel.

"Oh, well then....thank you for understanding." Fluttershy soon undid her Stare, smiled with relief while Angel sigh; looks like that went well.

"Instead, we do you!" Freddy then made another claim of who they would do the deed to.

"Yes, well....wait, WHAT!?" Fluttershy suddenly snapped to it in having heard what this group would do.

Then without warning, Freddy grabbed a shocked Fluttershy and held her tight, and turned to bring her near a suit. It was of a yellow butterfly costume which look kinda okay on the outside, but when unzip, un-comfy machine parts are seen and from the head was sharp wiring & devices.

"Part of the crew, part of the stage. Part of the crew, part of the stage," Soon many of Freddy's gang started to make a strange and creepy chant, as they were gonna put the pony within skin, in a costume, and she would be better...but it won't be good for the other. Fluttershy and Angel Bunny saw what the robots were gonna do, and if they do that, then....the mare will look dead in a butterfly costume with blood and gush out eyeballs, and.....ugh, just having a sweet girl like Fluttershy picture that may horrify her more.

"Well, well...looks like we'll have one of the princess friends to join us tonight," Marionette was then seen from behind the shadows to which Fluttershy managed to see the thing until it said this, "FOR ALL ETERNITY!" It then made a creepy laugh while the creepy chant was going on.

"Oh, no, no....please no." Fluttershy was struggling to get out of Freddy's grip, she didn't wanna be a part of this group who sing their creepy chant.

"Part of the crew, part of the stage. Part of the crew, part of the stage," The animatronics chanted in having brought Fluttershy near her 'new' skin as Freddy slowly was about to put her in while Bonnie ready the mare's costume head.

"Welcome to the business kid, hope you like your snuggy new home." The Marionette exclaimed to say this in popping between the butterfly costume to look to the frighten Fluttershy, who pretty soon, shall be one of the gang.

"Please....no, this isn't right! Please...Help! Heelp," Fluttershy was begging to be let go and tried to reason, but no one would hear, and Angel tried to help but Foxy held the rabbit in his clutches, "Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!" Fluttershy then made what be her final scream as she was already near her back to the machine parts of the butterfly suit and her near sharp inside butterfly head was almost upon her; as her life seems to flash before her eyes before....her demise.

Then without warning, that familiar bell ring came from out of nowhere, followed by foals cheering. This caused Freddy & the rest of the animatronics to cease their action to suddenly freeze and dropping Fluttershy and Angel on the ground.

"Fluttershy," Then Twilight and the rest came into the room in just about to save their friend, but notice that from a familiar sound, it was already 6AM. But has their friend and bunny manage to stay alive till then?

Soon Freddy and the rest of the robots got their programs functioning them to slowly begin to get moving pass the gang and to return to the stage & their basic areas. While everyone was sighing with relief that it was now 6 AM, they huddle near a frozen and frighten Fluttershy that seem scared stiff.

"Fluttershy, are you okay?" Twilight came to check on her friend, but Fluttershy seem almost...traumatized her paralyzed fear.

Then Angel came near Fluttershy's white eyes and tried to shake her cheeks to snap out of it with a frown to wake the mare up; it worked before she hug the rabbit.

"OH ANGEL! I WAS SO SCARED YOU GET KILL! I WAS TERRIFIED THAT I WAS GONNA DIE, HOLD ME!" Fluttershy let loose tears and was crying for comfort, joy, and from being so scared that she was hugging and snuggling with Angel Bunny from what was almost the end of her. Angel Bunny felt almost too much hugging there to be annoyed, but sigh to gently pat the mare's head to say 'It's alright, it's all over now' kinda message to be sent.

Suddenly the phone rang. Pinkie grins as she calls out, "I'LL GET IT!"

Rainbow suddenly flies at the phone while Pinkie bounces at it. The two ends up fighting over the phone before the Pegasus pony throws Pinkie into a ball pit.

Pinkie pokes her head out as she grins, saying, "Way to practice for our fanmake of Sam and Max!"

Rainbow press a button to put the phone to speaker. Starker's voice is heard, "Hello; Hey, Princess Twilight; You and your friends there?"

"Yeah, we're here...and made it through the fifth night." Twilight said with a sigh of relief.

"We're survived all five nights, darling!" Rarity exclaims eagerly. The others realize this, smiling eagerly. They had made it through all five nights...which means that the Marionette's hold should be loosen by now; But what about the five souls?

"Yeah, that's great. Listen, if you don't mind, I will send you paychecks, as a way of thanking you for making it through the week."

"Well, thanks...but about the place...and your funding." Twilight said seriously to Starker, wanting to get to some important parts.

"But hey, the other reason I'm calling? The management wants to ask you if you and your friends can spend another night at Freddy's; you know, for overtime?"

"Wait...as in, having an extra night?!" Applejack yelps to Starker, shocked and horrified to be hearing that.

"Yes, yes, I know, but the management felt like, since you survived 5 nights, we figured another night will fit you all better!"

"Night 6... NIGHT 6!? COME ON!!" Rainbow yells out in shock and disbelief. She and her friends barely survived Night 5...and now they gotta survive another night?!

"Really; I mean we've done enough 5 nights, NOW WE GOTTA DO A 6th NIGHT?!" Rarity screeches like a banshee who just been wrong.

Fluttershy is crying, breaking down in tears over this. As Pinkie hugs her, Twiilight pats Fluttershy on the back, saying, "Don't worry, Fluttershy, it'll be okay..."

"Hmm. Sounds like you girls need time to think this over. BTW, is any of your princesses up? Because the sun hasn't come up in the sky and the moon is still up there."

"He's right, look!" Spike gasps as he opens the door and points outside. Twilight and the others peek out and look shocked. The moon is still out!

"But...it's 6 AM! Why haven't the sun came up yet?!" Rainbow asks in shock and alarm. Something isn't right here.

Twilight gasps in horror. She exclaims, "Back to the castle, come on!"

Spike got back onto Twilight's back as they and the other mares rush out of the restaurant. Something has gone terribly wrong!

------------------

A few minutes later, the Mane Six and Spike returned to the castle and heads to the throne room. Upon arrival, they saw Shining on the floor, groaning and appears to be hurt.

"Shining, Shining, big brother!" Twilight exclaims as she rushes over to help her big brother up. "What happened? Where are the princesses?!"

"It's horrible! That Puppet creature...he was here!" Shining explains frantically, making the heroes horrified. "And then...that Golden Freddy...he appears and...they took them! They took the princesses...and Cadance!"

"EEEK! A MESSAGE," Pinkie screams as she points to something on the wall.

Everyone saw a message which appears to be written in blood on a wall: "The Night Has Been Extended." Twilight gulps a bit in terror. The Marionette must've captured Celestia and Luna, so that the night will continue onward in hopes that he will get more chances to torture his enemies...

And kill Twilight once and for all.

-----------

"Yes, like I said, the night has been extended." The Marionette said in a dark room with a sinister chuckle. "Princess Twilight Sparkle will have to come back for another night...or two...I despise hating, don't you think?"

The Marionette holds up three spheres with three familiar Alicorns trapped inside: Celestia, Luna and Cadance are inside, glaring at the Marionette, upset or fright. The enemy has Golden Freddy captured them, as a way to force Twilight over to Freddy's and more.

"Shame Dark Curse didn't think of this years ago. How sad that I have to die to fulfill both my revenge...and his dream," Marionette said, giving out a cruel chuckle to his captors.

Yes, Night 6 will be an interesting one indeed!

Chapter 7: Sixth Nightmare Night

Robin Cavanaugh groans a bit as he waits on a street with his mother Princess Celestia. The Alicorn, AKA the ruler of Equestria, was talking to an old friend of her whose she hasn't in a while. The princess promises her son, a little brown Earth Pony colt that it won't be a whole but it appears to be forever.

"Mommy, mommy; Are you done yet?" Robin aska his mother impatiently. "I'm getting bored."

Celestia doesn't seem to be paying attention to Robin. She is deep in the conversion with Azure. The colt sighs as he wanders off a bit, dropping his golden teddy bear that he named Freddy. Whatever his mother is with her "old friend", it usually takes a while. Why isn't he doing anything?

Robin looks up and saw that the area he's in has...Freddy Fazbear's Pizza! Yeah, the Earth Pony could have fun for a while in there; and why not? It's Foals Day at the restaurant, foals get in free. Robin didn't waste any time in coming inside. Luckily, the employee was nice enough to allow him in. He didn't bother telling her that he is Princess Celestia's son.

The band is already performing, though just the Toy versions of the Animatronics that his mother told him about. So what to do? What to do?

"Hey, there, little colt," A voice spoke out. Robin turns to see what appears to be someone in golden version of Freddy Fazbear holding a cake. "Are you lost? Is your mommy around?"

"No, my mommy is outside talking. I figure I could pass the time, having fun, Freddy." Robin said to the Freddy impersonator with a smile. Finally, some fun!

"Oh goodie; Say, you look familiar, little one. Are you related to someone familiar?"

"Well, my mother, Princess Celestia..."

"Ah! We got royalty in the restaurant! Well, then, come on with me. I got a special treat for little ones like you." "Golden Freddy" said to Robin with a gleeful laugh. The colt couldn't help by get excited; a special treat? He's special!

"Yeah; I want a special treat!" Robin cheers on wildly. He is going to love it.

Rough House, hidden behind the mask of Golden Freddy, smirks wickedly. This is one treat that this little one will get...to the last of his life."

---------------

Four little foals lie down on the floor after closing hours at Freddy's...lifeless. Rough House has proceeded in cutting them down then left them in the Backstage. He is planning on getting rid of the bodies after closing hours.

But this time, the killer won't. The Marionette saw to that. Once mostly everyone has gone on home and Rough House was busy at the moment, he had Toy Freddy bring the dead bodies to a room where they will be brought back to life. Yes, they will be his instruments of revenge on the killer...and all of Equestria for letting him die, as well as a way to help the Dark Mystic Ponies win their war.

"Back to the stage," The Marionette said to Toy Freddy who put down the body of Robin. The robot nodded as he leaves the room.

Time for the Marionette to get to work, he floats around, giving presents to the dead four foals, giving them life. Once he's done, the Puppet then put down masks of four robots who have since been broken down, their parts has been used for the updated robots. The Marionette waited...and soon, the four foals are transformed into Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxxy...broken down and decayed than ever. The Marionette's work has done well. They move around despite the lack of motors that was used for the new versions.

Well, almost. The Marionette notices that Robin's body is still not in a suit. Well, he will figure something out. The creature leaves, with plans on what to do later.

As Freddy's pals move around, the broken down bear, now moving with a colt's soul inside him, spots the dead Robin. The young one shouldn't be left there to rot so the bear picks him up and carries him out of the room. There's a way that he can still be saved...and stick it to that imposter for taking his life away.

Freddy takes Robin to another room where the suits are at. Good, he found it: the Golden Freddy suit. There is no endoskeleton...and the boy would end up being lifeless and may end up being a dead drone. But it's the best thing for him now.

"Kid, the Marionette saved us...so we will do what it takes to repay him...and help you." Freddy said as he puts Robin's corpse inside Golden Freddy. "No worries, your death won't be in vain."

Once Robin is inside, Freddy stood back for a moment...then Golden Freddy came to life, growling and moaning, "Mommy..."

---------------

Celestia has looked everywhere but there is no son of her missing colt. After she was done talking with Azure, the princess notices that her baby colt is missing. She had no idea that he went into Freddy's and feared that he wandered off. All that was remains of him was his golden teddy bear.

No one has seen any trace of her colt...Robin Cavanaugh appears to be up and missing. The princess sobs in her room, holding her son's teddy bear while singing.

Celestia: I dunno what I was thinking,
Leaving my child behind,
Now I suffer the curse and now I am blind

With all this anger, guilt and sadness,
Coming to haunt me forever,
I can't wait for the cliff at the end of the river,

Is this revenge I am seeking,
Or seeking someone to avenge me
Stuck in my own paradox I wanna set myself free

Maybe I should chase and find
before they'll try to stop it
It won't be long before I'll become a puppet

Half of the princess wanted to kill herself for not keeping an eye on her son...just like how she was unable to save her sister. But what would killing herself do?

"Oh, Robin," Celestia said, looking out to the moon in grief, remembering Robin's sweet face and smile. "I'm sorry my sweet baby, I wish I've been there."

--------------

A train had arrived at Canterlot's Train Station. 20 Phoenix Kingdom Soldiers came out and stood in attention. Azure Phoenix, Schemetrick, One Eyed Anger, Axen, Bullhound and Rhino Steel, a bald brownish muscular Earth Pony dressed in his Phoenix Armor, came down from the train. All of them came for an important visit to Celestia. They looked up and found the sky was still dark and night as well. Something is not right here.

Bullhound hummed in concern, "I don't like that sky very much."

"Hmm... What of it, Bullhound?" Azure asks Bullhound in concern. Last time that happened is when Nyx was Nightmare Moon and she took control of Equestria for a while.

Bullhound sighed in concern, "The time now is 6 in the morning. Shouldn't the sun be up for it? It gives me goose bumps to see the night. Not that I hate it, it's just too suspicious and scary to think about something..."

Rhino hummed in concern, "Bull's right. It should be morning by now. But I see nothing..."

"Probably Celestia's laziness as usual; I don't think it's serious." Anger remarks, dismissing the whole thing, "You know how she goes. Just love to troll and fool around as usual."

"No..." Azure said seriously. The Phoenix Kingdom Officers turned and looked at him as he continues, "Something's not right. While Celestia enjoyed some fun, she never neglects her duty as the Princess of Equestria and Canterlot. This is unlike her."

Schemetrick looked up and stared at the stars and moon carefully. He hummed in concern, "The stars show the sign. I believe that Royal Sisters and their relatives are captured."

"Captured?! By whom; And how?!" Bullhound demands in shock and fury.

"Yeah; these are Alicorns. Nothing can defeat them easily." Rhino exclaims in agreement. Well, nothing except maybe Dark Mystic Ponies but they are in hiding at the moment.

"Unless there is something has involves special yet dangerous Dark Magic which is able to defeat them..." Azure said, narrowing his eyes sternly.

"Then, we'd better get in at once. I hate to see you trying to usurp the throne. You know how sensitive and protective your student can be." Anger said to his lord in concern.

"I'm aware of it."

Schemetrick smirked as he remarks, "And be careful of what you're doing."

"What do you mean?" Azure asks Schemetrick puzzled.

"You'll find out."

"All units; move out." Azure orders his men whom prepared themselves for any signs of trouble. The Mystic Pony then turned to Axen as he continues, "Axen; send word to my son that I will return home very late. Tell him that he's in charge of Northern Ma."

Axen bowed as he said, "At once, my lord."

Azure and his small remaining of Phoenix Kingdom Force rushed out as they headed straight to the Canterlot City.

------------------

Upon arriving at Canterlot City, everyone screamed in fear and went panicked. They ran around the area while screaming and crying for help. The sun isn't up yet, the moon is still up. Something has happened to the Royal Sisters, everyone can sense it!

"Uh-oh; Not again," Bullhound yelps as Azure's group came into the area. This doesn't look good, not at all!

Schemetrick nods as he spoke, "This is to be expected. With the missing of the two rulers, the town went panicked."

"Well, looks like it's our job to clean up the messes..." Anger groaned in annoyance. "Again..."

"My lord, what are your orders? Can't just leave them like this." Rhino said to Azure in concern. Order must be detained until Celestia and Luna are found.

Azure smirked as he comments, "This is nothing but child's play." The Mystic Pony shot a bluish flare up into the sky. BOOM! The Canterlot Citizens stopped their panicked and turned to the entrance area. "Citizens, remain calm and do not fear. The situation is under control."

"But we got word that the princesses are missing!" One citizen cries out in fear.

"It's like the Nightmare Moon's second coming all over again, but no Nightmare Moon!" Another citizen yells out in a panic. "What will we do?!"

"Princess Twilight Sparkle must do something! There is going to be Tartarus all over here!" A third citizen yells out in concern.

"Letting your fears bested you will not help you calm down from this situation. Therefore, it is wise of you remain calm and faithful to your leaders." Azure advises. The citizens went silent as he continues, "You mustn't fear it. Your Princesses will be safe from danger. Her faithful student and friends are here to help you. They will bring them safe from danger. Rest assures that everything is fine. While they remained missing, I shall assume the temporary command of the situation. If there's a problem, come and seek me out. My warriors will help you out. But for now, return to your home and remain calm; await for further notices. Go now..."

The Canterlot Citizens nodded their heads in agreement while chatting quietly and softly. The men all immediately return to him at once, amazed by how he was able to calm this situation down. Azure always seem to figure out a way.

"Just like Yan Province, you quelled the panic down." Anger said to Azure, impressed.

Bullhound nodded while adding, "And that's why he's called 'Conqueror of the North'."

"Hmm; who goes there," Rhino swung his axe right on his right side. The voice squealed in fear and panic. Rhino stopped his attacks as he spotted Fluttershy in front of him, "What the-?!"

"Please, don't hurt me!" Fluttershy cries as she flew to hide right behind Rainbow. There they are, the Mane Six and Spike, arriving on the scene of the aftermath!

"Hey buddy! Watch where you're pointing the axe at," Rainbow scowls as she pushes Rhino's axe away. The Pegasus pony didn't like what he almost tried to do.

"That was quite a rude of you to do to our friend, Fluttershy." Rarity remarks in agreement with Rainbow.

"Hey! I was doing my job as Azure's Bodyguard, okay?" Rhino snaps in irritation.

"Lord Azure?" Applejack asks surprised, as she recalls his name. "'De Conqueror o' 'de North is here?"

"Oh goodie! Where is he, huh, huh, huh?" Pinkie asks, bouncing almost all over the place.

Twilight looked up and spotted Azure Phoenix from his spot, making her gasp, "Lord Azure!"

Twilight approached Azure Phoenix. She bowed down before to him while he returned a bow to her. It's respectful for two royals to bow to each other.

"An honor to see you here, Twilight; so, you're aware of the Princesses being missing?" Azure asks Twilight in concern.

Twilight nodded as she spoke, "Yeah. And I really need some help from you."

Azure narrowed his eyes in suspicious of what Twilight had said. Something tells the Mystic Pony that the Alicorn know what's going on around here.

----------------------

In the Throne Chamber, Azure Phoenix was sitting on Princess Celestia's chair. Both Bullhound and Rhino Armor stood beside with him. Schemetrick and Anger stood on the right side. Twilight explained to what happen during the five nights at Freddy's. Shining is in a sling and bandages, recovering from the attack by the Marionette and Golden Freddy.

"Ohh... That sounds creepy and scary. It's so hard to believe that cuddly and cutie mascots like those things could be so menace and troubling..." Bullhound said with a shudder. He is stunned to hear that the mascots of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza was responsible, being five poor souls corrupted by a Puppet of all things!

Fluttershy sighed, "You have no idea..."

Anger huffed a bit, "I'd never really like those guys when we came to the restaurant. Seeing those things makes me want to destroy them."

"Aw come on, Anger; they're not that bad." Pinkie exclaims happily. This of course causes Anger to glare at Pinkie, making her cringe. "Okay; maybe they're the worst. Yeesh, and especially the Puppet."

Azure stood up and approached Twilight, saying, "So, Twilight. It's so hard to believe. That Puppet maybe quite annoying and irritating to me, but I never thought that it could be so dangerous."

Twilight nodded as she spoke, "Yes... But there's one thing I'd never understand... Why? What did the Puppet want with me? I'd never done anything wrong to him. I know those animatronics didn't forgive me but him... It's another mystery to solve..."

Azure hummed, "I don't know. But I do know one thing. That Puppet was being possessed or being used."

"Wait, what do you mean?" Shining ask Azure in concern.

"Ever since I had arrived to this area, I sense something dangerous and darkness in this area..."

Schemetrick nodded in agreement as he spoke, "Lord Azure's right. There's a manifestation here. I can feel it. If we can get the Puppet, we can force it out from its host. We will interrogate it to tell us of what it knows about the situation."

"So you're telling me that there's someone pulling the strings of this mess? Humph." Anger remarks with his usual scoff. "It's quite an irony. A puppet pulls the strings of animatronics but turned out that it was the one being pulled by someone else."

Rhino clenched his hooves tight and hard while snapping, "So, what are we waiting for?! I'd say we get that stupid Puppet now. It may be in his slumber, but we can get it and smash it hard!"

Bullhound smiled as he continues, "Then, we can make him talk to us of why he did it! Brilliant, Rhino."

"We can't. The Marionette normally does his activities at night!" Spike exclaims in protest. "I mean, with the sun still down, he will still be activated especially since Freddy's closed during the night!"

"Right, the Marionette won't be easy." Twilight said in agreement with her son/brother/whatever.

"Plus, with Golden Freddy, we may be facing Tartarus!" Rainbow exclaims frantically.

"Then, tell me? What is your suggestion if you think bringing the Puppet here is dangerous?" Azure asks the others curiously, wanting to know what the plan is.

"Shining?" Twilight ask Shining thoughtfully.

"I spoke with Jeremy Hoofsphere, who was the guard during the Missing Foals Incident and the Incident Bite. He didn't want to speak of it at first but I talked him into it. Jeremy told me that while he was on guard, the old Animatronics, involving the new ones which had since been strapped, tried to kill him. He barely made it through six nights alive." Shining said in concern, cringing from the pain. "Those things are possessed by the ghosts of the foals themselves. He wanted to say something, but the Incident Bite happened."

"So, anyway, my friends and I are thinking that we should go back to Freddy's, survive the sixth night. Whenever we did, the Marionette's power is weakened a bit. If we survived that night and maybe the next if need be..."

"Absolutely not; this plan is too dangerous!" Azure interrupts Twilight, horrified by her idea. "If you returned to that place by midnight, you all will be dead. It's best that we search for them and destroy the area. You must not fall into that trap, Twilight."

"No disrespect, my lord. I can't. I have to go back now. The Princesses need us. Even if we destroy that place, we won't have the chance to find them." Twilight pleads to Azure. If Freddy's get destroyed, who knows if the Marionette would be dead and if the princesses would survive the assault? "Please, let us do it. We can handle it."

Azure sighed, "Very well... I hope you know what you're doing."

Twilight sighed, "I hope so too..."

"Is there something else you wish to tell me?"

"I still feel guilty of what happen before. If only I had not been traumatized, none of this could have happen. And now, those things are after me. And I'm worry that they won't forgive me."

Azure gave out a chuckle at this, "Funny... Nyx used to think that when she heard of Hope's death and me. She knew my wrath yet she chose to face me without any resistance or flee. She apologized to me. As much I wanted to take it, I chose to forgive her than letting emotions blind me."

"What does this had to do with Nyx apologizing to you about the incident before?" Twilight ask Azure, puzzled.

"You have to face your judgment." Azure said seriously. Twilight gasped, along with her friends. "Like you said, you feel guilty of this event, and now it's your chance to fix it. Admit your mistakes to them. Let them know how much you never meant to let their souls be in pain. Put these poor souls out of misery."

"I... I can't."

"If you don't, then these poor souls within animatronics will soon ignore its program and rise to rebel against the poor innocents. Your mentor and friends will die. It's best you must overcome your guilt and fear, and face them."

Twilight thought for the moment. Azure is right, the more she neglects doing this, the worst it becomes. The Alicorn said, "You're right. I have to do it."

Azure nodded as he adds, "For further assistance in your mission, I will have both Anger and Rhino Steel assist. They will provide the necessary need you require."

Twilight smiled while saying, "Thank you, Lord Azure."

Twilight approached and then kissed on Azure's lips. Mostly everyone is either shocked, confused, or a bit freaked out. Though Spike couldn't help but laugh at this. Twilight's Bi nature is definitely something to remember!

Bullhound scratched his head while speaking, "Awkward..."

Rhino nodded his head as he agrees, "Yeah. This is gonna be a problem."

Twilight move back from Azure, a bit embarrassed. She exclaims, "Sorry!" The mare hopes that Azure wouldn't be pissed for that!

Azure cleared his throat as he said awkwardly, "I'm gonna pretend I had no idea as to what happen. Go now. Proceed to Freddy's; Do what you must. I will remained here and keep everything under control. The last thing we want is the city to be feared and panicked by spirit-possessed-machines."

"Yes, Lord Azure."

Twilight and her friends quickly left the Throne Chamber, along with Anger and Rhino Steel.

Azure pauses then said quickly, "Tell no one of this."

Schemetrick nods as he said, "My lips is sealed."

"I've seen nothing." Bullhound remarked, pretending that he hasn't seen anything as well.

Azure sighs as he begins drinking some tea. Shining smirks while asking, "Say, you do know that my sister is Bi, right? And she is attracted to Princess Celestia, right?"

Azure yelps as he spits out his drink. Schemetrick and Bullhound laugh a bit as the Lord comments, "I didn't need to hear that."

-----------------

The Marionette sat inside his dark room, rolling the spheres around with a smile. While Cadance is scared, Celestia and Luna look at the enemy as if looking into the face of dead.

"You know this won't work." Celestia said to the Marionette seriously. "The Dark Mystic Ponies had never won in the past...and you, dying as a foal..."

"Extending the nights is the only way I can get at your princess. She will suffer first...then you, your sister and adopted niece will." The Marionette said darkly to the Alicorn of the Sun. "Dark Curse's dream of cleansing this world of filth like your kind will be realized...and my revenge for your kind for allowing that Killer to roam will be complete."

"You shouldn't blame Equestria for what one pony had done." Luna said seriously. "I know that he was a former security guard who is supposed to keep ponies safe...and no one was able to save you that day outside of Fredbear's Family Diner...but killing ponies after hours..."

"Enough of this; I must get my friends ready. Golden Freddy; Keep an eye on them. Come out to play when it's time."

Golden Freddy came out, picking up the spheres and looking at the Alicorns. As the Marionette disappears, the three captives look at their prison guard who looks at them, giving out a sweet smile. Celestia looks puzzled. Those eyes...sweet smile...where has she seen them before?

Golden Freddy blinks a bit, mumbling, "Mommy?"

"Mommy," Luna and Cadance ask in confusion.

Celestia looks stunned as she looks at Golden Freddy. There was a fifth soul inside that outfit, no doubt about it, which has become corrupted. And it just called her "mommy"?

"Robin?" Celestia whispers to Golden Freddy. The corrupted one doesn't seem to pay it any heed as it went mindless again.

--------------------------

The employees of Freddy's were being held back by the Royal Guards. The place is now under locked down, which means no one, except for Princess Twilight and her group are permitted in and out.

"Come on, you're killing me here!" An employee protests to a Royal Guard. "It's night out at the moment but we still gotta work."

"Well, be lucky you ain't killed by something else, mac." The Royal Guard snaps to the employee, pushing him back, "Lord Azure and Princess Twilight's orders. No one is to come in and out of here until the matter of the missing princesses is resolved."

Twilight's group is preparing to head in. The purple Alicorn gives out instructions to the new Captain of the Royal Guard, "Listen up, if anyone other than me, my friends, Lord Azure's servants, anything that looks like a normal creature were to come out who aren't alive, you got permission to use force."

The captain salutes as the group heads into Freddy's, time for the sixth night of horror. Upon entering, they head straight to the office. Even though it should've been day, the Marionette will make arrangements to allow his corrupted servants to move around otherwise thanks to the night still out.

Upon reaching the office, the group prepares themselves while Twilight gives out instructions to Anger and Rhino. Needless to say, they aren't thrilled.

"What; You want us to do what?!" Anger yells out in alarm. Twilight wants him and Rhino to sit back and let the group handle this, coming in whenever is necessary.

"Forget it. Lord Azure assigned us to help and protect you from danger! I'm not gonna let those possessed machines scared me to death! I faced many dangers, especially Demons. Not one can scare me!" Rhino exclaims in agreement.

Twilight sighed, "I know, Rhino. But Lord Azure said I have to face my guilt and them. And I have to fix it now before it's too late. If I can apologize to them while freeing them from stuffed animatronics, the souls can finally rest in peace."

"And you expect us to sit back idly? No way," Anger protests with a frown.

"Listen to me! If anything goes wrong, I need you both and your soldiers to hold the doors until 6 AM. If they escaped, who knows what they can do to others. Please..."

Anger sighed in irritation, "Fine... Not because you asked us nicely, we are soldiers to defend the citizens from danger."

Rhino nodded while adding, "If there's anything goes wrong, call us. I hate doing nothing."

"I will. Stay on guard, guys." Twilight said as she heads back to her seat. The mare brings up the tablet, preparing for any trouble.

"We will." Anger and Rhino said, saluting to the princess. They watch as she put the three Freddy's dolls that Starker has given her and the others, hugging them for good luck.

"Think that they can handle it?" Rhino whispers to Anger in concern.

"Hopefully for long; until we know what possessed that Marionette, we standby and stay on guard for now..." Anger said with a frown to his colleague.

The group is ready for the shocking sixth night. They see the camera and notice the pink pony but with a larger pony who looks like an Alicorn (Ok you know who he is so you put two and two together). Freddy is surprised along with the other 3 as the bear turns his head not wanting to look at the Alicorn in the eye but says, "Look mister Golden Heart, what happen that night.............it was not my or the others' fault; we did not know you were even an Alicorn or Pinkamena's big brother; you know that the Puppet made us attack when you were only trying to help us...........but if your still mad at us, it is understandable."

Pinkamena listened to his words as Golden Heart looks at him and the other 3. They look worried but he calms and gives a gentle smile.

"Looks like what my sister says is true......................you and your pals are just misled beings who are lost in a cave that never ends and I forgave you long after that night but what that blasted Puppet done was unforgiving and harsh..............even if he wanted to make the killer pay but to blame everypony is wrong." Golden Heart said calmly.

As the robots listen to his words and wisdom, Freddy looks at him but he then notices Golden Freddy slowly crawling to the Alicorn, obviously leading his post of guarding the captives for a while. He worries along with the others as Golden Heart says, "But even so how could anypony known he knew the place up and down but he was captured but you know since that Puppet put the bodies and souls into you and your friends; all went downhill and then the Bite of 87."

Foxy cringes and looks down in guilt; if he was alive, he be crying right now but still sees Golden Freddy coming. Golden Heart then says, "But it was never your fault and you know it deep down and if you had the chance, you would try and ask for forgiveness and give that little filly a great party."

Golden Freddy comes closer and slowly stands and is holding a knife........the same knife the killer used as Freddy and pals become more worried. Their bodies twitch as he then finishes what he has to say boldly and true, "I had sent a note to Aurora Stars mother and father. That with luck we can restore their daughter's missing frontal lobe and for them to come here after the Seventh Day shift and when all this is settled, this place will be happy again and you can give Aurora Star the best and greatest party of her life."

That makes them surprised and even Golden Freddy froze up slightly sparking but it sparks once more and charges as Freddy says, "LOOK OUT!"

That makes Golden heart and Pinkamena surprised but turn and see Golden Freddy as it screeches. lunging at them but Golden Heart's horn glows and catches it in midair. With one flick of his head and letting his magic go, it sends Golden Freddy flying as it screeches. Golden Freddy crashes into things and was back into the kitchen as it shuts down but it is not out. Golden Heart calms and turns to Freddy and others who were frighten lightly by how quick Golden Freddy was sent flying................in terms they are lucky they are not on his bad side.

Golden Heart then says, "Well that should hush him up for a while..............I still feel pity for him; just a mindless drone." He says in his own mind, 'Unlike that shadow one if he is around. I fear for not only my sister and the others but for them................that creature is something not even Marionette can control; why did the workers did not scrap it when they had the chance............and I wish Jeremy had acted sooner to warn somepony but he did tell me but then that night........I just hope it never awakens for the sake of everypony."

Golden Heart notices Freddy and others just staring as he lets off a light cough, "Well anyway, I will be doing what I need to do and sister, you know your part and..."

Golden Heart whispers into his sister's ear then stops. Pinkamena nods and gives Freddy and the others a quick hug and then moves and climbs into the vent. Music is heard as Pinkamena was moving in the Vents on the search for the captives as she peeks into a hole and then sees them. The pink one then quickly writes on a paper and then folds it, sliding it into a vent for Golden Heart to get. He then smile and his horn glows as he says, "See you at the final night. I have much to do..............and to the ones in the office see you as well............and do not worry, Twilight, the Princesses will be alright."

In a flash, he teleported out of sight as Freddy and others be ready for the sixth night to begin.

Suddenly during the moment, lightning flashed with the sound of thunder, as it impacted the restaurant once again on the sixth night. The motion caused those in the control room to yelp from such a force, but the electricity soon went its course, as it came into contact with Freddy and his buds yet again. From getting another super-charge this night, their eyes had flash red as they felt another boost to move, but quicker. And back in the office, those that handle what happened wonder what this meant, but it's clear as day by now.

"Holy! This time we really got something! Freddy's now Level 19, and Foxy's now Level 19, and both Bonnie & Chica are now Level 18!" Pinkie Pie checks the level meter on the animatronics' current course of function.

"Whah! But that means they'll be closer to Level 20!" Rarity yelped at hearing this, that level sounds too high.

"Dis don't look good Twilight." Applejack stated in knowing what this could mean for them this sixth night to deal with.

"I agree, the storm has caused their levels to go this high." Twilight stated in fearing that now the meter on the animatronics have almost reach their max.

"Oh my goodness, then...what happens if another storm hits us?" Fluttershy asked with worry in thinking of the worse thing to come.

"They'll be at Level 20, and at their Max, they might be almost impossible to handle!" Twilight stated to say that at such a level, it'll really be difficult to keep an eye on Freddy and his crew when they move faster than before.

"Then we'll have to be prepared, if we're gonna survive this while figuring out what's going on, then we really gotta hang in here. Good thing, I got some plans to help out." Rainbow Dash exclaimed to say this while having already gotten ahead that they need to slow down the killer robots to get by another night.

"Like de last few ye had between Rarity bein' Freddy's ma & de megaphone event?" Applejack rolled her eyes in recalling the last few things Rainbow thought up that were crazy and they were lucky to survive them.

"Trust me; I've got another plan that's sure to guarantee we get by another night." Rainbow Dash smiled off to say this while giving a secret wink to Pinkie Pie who giggled in secret.

"Well, let’s hope so." Spike replied off in hoping things can work out for them.

Soon everyone gets ready for as they are about to start the sixth night. Whatever's gonna happen next here, they'll have to survive cause now there's a lot more at stake here then solving the problem of trap souls, but figuring out where the kidnapped princesses are.

12:00 AM, 6th Night

The phone nearby finally rang again, much to the surprise of everyone.

"Okay, the Phone Guy's dead...I hope it isn't anyone with more Yogi language." Rainbow remarked with a groan, recalling the fifth night's call.

"Could be worse. Could be someone mistaking the phone number to be a sex phone line!" Pinkie exclaimed happily.

"Do yew even know what 'dat is?" Applejack asked Pinkie with a concerned look.

"Nope, but I've heard that Cheerilee was using one when she was looking for a date." Pinkie admitted to Applejack.

"T.M.I., Pinkie." Rarity replied dryly, "Too much information."

The phone was then answered by the answering machine.

"Hello? Is anyone there?"

The girls and Spike looked shocked to hear Starker on the phone! Was this a recording or was he really calling?

"Starker," Twilight asked in surprise and disbelief. What was he doing calling Freddy's?

"Well, if they are, then I'm recording this from when after a little purple filly named 'Twilight Sparkle' came to this place but left for no reason."

Twilight felt bad that she could've told him about this. The mare didn't say anything as she and the others kept on listening.

"But anyway, if this is the last night, then I want to make this important to anyone who's listening, important to Twilight..."

Twilight looked shocked to hear this from Starker.

"So if she's listening to this, I want her to know that I'm sorry that I should've told you about this years ago. Maybe if you were younger, maybe we could've freed the poor kids that were killed by our rogue employee Rough House, but they couldn't help it, they were controlled..."

Twilight almost tear up and was about to cry because Starker knew this, too, and the animatronics were actually ponies inside, but Spike gave her a comforting hug.

"So anyway, the final night, here's what you need to know: Freddy is much more dangerous on this night than the last five nights, but Him and Foxy are the Main priorities when it comes to trying to survive the night. So, I suggest that you should check on both the show stage and Pirate Cove, also, I heard that Bonnie and Chica are even more aggressive than usual... hope you and your new friends weren't aggravating them..."

Twilight glanced at her friends while they were worried as she realized that they made them more aggressive now...

"Anyway... try to both check the hallway lights and listen to their footsteps before they can jam the doors. The louder they are, the closer the animatronics are to you. Kinda makes the monitor useless, doesn't it?"

Pinkie Pie/Rainbow Dash both said in unison, "Yeah, it kinda does."

"But be warned: If you girls run out of power, Freddy may or may not play the shorter version of his jingle, and he might kill you faster.... But it's merely chance on what he decides."

Fluttershy looked scared about this and cowered right next to Rainbow Dash.

"So anyway, that's everything you need to know... I hope you'll survive the last night against this, so we can finally end this and help bring the souls of the victims of the animatronics and the victims inside the animatronics themselves be free... Good luck and good night..."

Then the phone call finally ended.

"Oh, man..." Rainbow said in worry.

Twilight didn't waste time in checking out the show stage. Bonnie and Chica are gone...though Freddy is still there. She checks the cameras: Bonnie is in the Backstage area...while Chica is in the East Hall.

"Rhino; check the right door, will ya?" Twilight asked Rhino.

Rhino nods as he press the lights on the lights for the East Hall. Sure enough, there's Chica, growling at her.

"Who is that in the room? You are all supposed to be alone!" Chica exclaimed, a bit shocked and disbelief upon seeing Rhino.

Rhino quickly pressed the button, closing the door, snapping, "Not in my hour!"

Twilight checked out the cameras for Pirate's Cove. The curtain was open as a sign that read "It's Me" was right up front.

"Foxy's out," Twilight exclaimed as she checked the camera for the West Hall, which Foxy was running down very fast. "Close the door!"

Rarity pressed the button for the West Hall door, closing it. Sounds of running were heard followed by Foxy trying to pound on the door like mad.

"Arrr; I be knowing you're in there!" Foxy was heard snapping.

"Come on, what did you do to the princesses?" Rainbow was heard yelling. "Come on, tell us or I will break your whole jaw off!"

"Rainbow, stop it." Twilight said with a sigh. "Listen, Foxy, I...Foxy?"

"Never mind, Twilight; He's back in Pirate's Cove." Spike said as he pointed to an image on the laptop. Foxy was indeed back in Pirate's Cove as per the curtain closed there.

"Oh, I was hoping to apologize!" Twilight whined a bit.

"It's okay, sugah cube." Applejack said, patting Twilight on the back. "We'll wait until we survive 'dis night...until we can try 'ta apologize."

"I hope you're right..." Twilight sighed.

Wicked laughter was heard. Pinkie checked the stage camera as she said, "Bad news, Freddy is off the stage now."

"Oh, no," Twilight cried. Thinking fast, she checked the camera and find Freddy who was now in the Dining Area. At least he's in there.

Fluttershy checked the lights for the East Hall. She opened the door while sighing a bit, "Chica's gone."

"And Bonnie's in the West Hall now." Twilight said, checking the camera for the West Hall, seeing Bonnie there.

The Mane Six and Spike yelped as they kept seeing hallucinations of Freddy and Bonnie's heads, eyes blackened in darkness and giving out creepy grins.

"Yikes!" Most of the ponies exclaimed in alarm.

"Girls, calm down, they're just hallucinations." Twilight said, trying to calm her friends down. "We can't let them get to us."

"Hallucinations or not, I want my mommy!" Fluttershy whimpered.

"I want your mommy, too!" Pinkie exclaimed, crying as she hugged Fluttershy. Then the mare let go quickly. "Oops. Sorry. Don't know where I was going with that."

The group heard Freddy's laughter before Twilight checked the cameras for the Restrooms. Freddy was there once more.

Applejack checked the lights on the left, revealing Bonnie's silhouette outside. The bunny was outside the door right now. Luckily, the door itself was locked up.

"So far, they are doing well." Anger said, commenting on how the group was doing.

"Yes, but how long would they keep it up," Rhino ask in concern.

Spike pressed the lights for the right door. There was Chica, saying, "Let's eat!!!!"

"Let's not," Spike exclaimed as he slammed the door shut in Chica's face.

"You all can't stay in there forever!" Bonnie's voice was heard. "Y-y-y-y-y-you will be (Dead to all of us) starving!"

"Yeah, come out so we can (break your necks) t-t-t-t-talk." Chica said, twitching a voice from outside in the East Hall.

"We're not talking with any of you!" Rainbow shouted.

"D-d-d-d-don't talk back to me, little filly; Or I will have t-t-t-t-ta (rip your intestines) tell your parents!" Bonnie exclaimed madly.

"This is getting intense." Anger remarked. "I hope Azure Phoenix, Schemetrick and Bullhound are doing better than we are."

----------------

Azure Phoenix was at work, handling and dealing with Canterlot's politics and Canterlot's Affairs. With Celestia and Luna's disappearance, the day and night courts are combined. Shining was there, giving out assistance.

"That should be it for now." Schemetrick said with a sigh as the last of the ponies leave. "I hope Twilight is able to complete her mission."

"i know my sister, she won't rest until her lovers are back with her." Shining commented. Bullhound gave him an odd look. "Oh, did I mention that Twiley's also attracted to Luna?"

"Yes, until you brought it up." Azure said with an annoyed sigh while cleaning his lips from his previous tea. "What's next? Twilight is attracted to your wife now?"

"Well, she was...when she was little but Twiley got over it." Shining said with an awkward chuckle. "The only colt I've known that she's attracted to is Flash Sentry."

"And now, looks like Azure Phoenix got lucky!" Bullhound whistled a bit.

"Please, I'm old enough to be her great grandfather!" Azure remarked with a scoff. "Besides, I'm sure it was a gratitude kiss."

"What's next? She'd get attracted to Dragon Hope?" Schemetrick remarked. Azure glared a bit, "Oh, sorry; Forgot that I wasn't supposed to mention his name."

"Maybe in another universe, Schemetrick, maybe in another universe," Azure added with a slight sigh. It would be interesting to see Dragon Hope, AKA Shadow Dragon, be with Twilight though.

Azure sigh a bit as he got up, then notices something on the side of the throne room. The Mystic Pony picked up some sort of golden teddy bear.

"Hey, that looks almost like Freddy...if it's yellow." Shining said, recognizing the teddy bear. "Is it the princess's?"

"No, I recognize this: it belonged to Celestia's song Robin Cavanaugh." Azure said with a sigh, recognizing the teddy bear.

"Celestia has a son?" Shining asked Azure, a bit puzzled.

"Yes, she HAD one, but the colt disappeared years ago...around the same time as the Missing Foals Incident." Azure said, as a look of realization came on his face.

The same thought came to Shining's mind. He spoke up, "Did his disappearance happen right outside of Freddy's?"

"You could say that." Azure said.

Shining gulped a bit as he looked outside in the balcony; That must mean...Robin was one of the foals that was killed by Rough House...and he was possessing one of the Animatronics; But which one?

----------------

"They're really going at us tonight? Pinkie Pie....it's time!" Rainbow Dash issued the order to begin their big secret weapon step.

"Ready!" Pinkie Pie saluted while holding...a hand saw?

"Um, what's with the hand saw?" Spike asked off in seeing that object out front here?

"Oh, are you going to cut something?" Fluttershy slowly asked off in not knowing what was going on.

"Nope; I'll use it with...THIS!" Pinkie Pie pointed out before holding the stick piece that is used to play violins.

"Ah violin's stick," Applejack rolled her eyes in asking are you kidding me remark eye sight.

"How is that going to help?" Rarity asked forth in not following these steps.

"Cue the number!" Rainbow Dash gave the order while switching on the speaker system.

"I shall call this; Saw-Lala #3 of which it shall be my extended version!" Pinkie Pie proclaimed in what she'll be doing is an extended version of her work.

"Oh no! I got a bad feeling about this now!" Twilight yelps in fearing this is another hair-brain scheme that will be really bad.

And soon, it happened alright.

Pinkie Pie: Lala-Lala, Lala-Lala, Lala-Lala

As the pony was singing and playing a violin stick on a hand saw, it's noise was apparently causing....UNHEARD responses. For those that were hearing this, were gritting their teeth, their skin and furs were wobbling, and much glass objects were breaking from the high note effects; This technique maybe even WORSE than the megaphone plan.

Even Freddy & his crew stop what they were doing to hold their heads as if feeling torture and pain in the ears. For it was causing their circuits to short-out, and it made their bodies yelp and twitch in unbelievable reactions.

"Sweet Celestia!" Freddy cried out in feeling like he was being tortured.

"Make her stop! Make it stop!" Bonnie cried out in wanting the noises to cease being heard.

"It's too much to take!" Chica complained that they can't take this sorta endurance much longer.

"Arrrrgh, forget Marionette, lets book it ta a safe spot ta wait an die this down!" Foxy exclaims in horror.

Many were in agreement to begin moving off to get as far away from the noises as possible. They were completely forgetting to get the ponies cause at this moment...the awful noises was getting to them.

"Oh yeah; Rock it down!" Pinkamena on the other hand was actually digging Pinkie Pie's little number.

"Grrrouuuaarrrughhh!" Of course, rushing pass the distracted pony was Golden Freddy that quickly was trying to get away from the noises. Even HE, a drone, can't stand this kinda torture.

-------------------------

And back where Marionette was hiding with the captive princesses, they were all holding their ears from hearing Pinkie's terrible singing with a hand saw; WHO PLAYS SUCH THINGS IN NUMBERS?

"What Sorta Pony Calls THAT, MUSIC?" Marionette demands madly, close to losing it more than usual.

"Pinkie Pie," The three princesses exclaimed from their prisons in knowing this was one of Twilight's friends at work here.

"Ehhh, no matter; It's only 3AM, now way they can hold out for long!" Marionette exclaimed.

"He doesn't know?" Luna stated in surprise that this foe has yet to know.

"Apparently not," Celestia shook her head in seeing this Puppet doesn't know the truth.

"That Pinkie Pie once played a course for over 3 hours." Cadence stated in what the pink pony performed.

Three Hours...Later...

Pinkie Pie's voice was still doing that irrupting song number that has been making everyone feel like they were on edge. But then without warning, and much to some's relief, a familiar bell ring came from out of nowhere, followed by foals cheering. That meant one thing, the 6th night was over.

"YOU GOTTA KIDDING ME! SHE LASTED SINGING THAT STUPID SONG?" Marionette yelled out in fury in seeing that the enemy survived one more night.

"We told you not to underestimate Pinkie Pie." Luna smiled off from her prison to say this in being cocky.

"And now, Twilight and her friends are safe." Celestia smiled in seeing who were safe from harm.

"And soon, they will stop your evil plans!" Cadence pointed out in seeing the Puppet will meet its end.

"GRRRRRRR...." Marionette was growling in fury, annoyance, all of the above in being so upset, "I......HAAAAATE.....PONIEEEEESSSSS!" He yelled out so long to the heavens in seeing that once again, his prey have escaped certain death….for a moment.

----------------------

Back at the office, Pinkie Pie was still performing while many of the others held their ears and twitchy eyes in almost about to lose it. That was until Pinkie Pie finally stops...

"And for my encore...." Pinkie was about to say until...

"Noooooo," The Mane Six members and Spike cried out in stopping from anymore singing.

"I think we may just have to deal with killer robots than deal with that again." Spike wipes off his sweaty forehead; this was too much to take.

"Look, Freddy and the other animatronics are coming out from where they hid to go back to their stages." Rarity pointed at the cameras, Freddy, his crew, even Golden Freddy surprisingly, were leaving the areas to drown out the noises while never reaching the office.

"Well we made it again, course someone could have mention this cocky-mania-plan ta begin wit'." AJ sigh to say this before staring at the pony that cause more harm than good.

"Hey, it did the job." Rainbow Dash protest in stating what she did still help them out.

"For now, but I'm worried. What about...tomorrow," Fluttershy spoke in feeling concern about the next night. They haven't solved the case yet.

"If we don't settle things tomorrow, then there won't be a next week for us girls. We have to find the princesses, save the lost souls, and so much more." Twilight explained this in being serious of what's to expect on the next day, and once it comes, it may be their hardest yet.

The gang was in agreement on that, as they quickly leave the office while knowing it's safe with it being six in the morning now.

The group and the two Mystic Ponies head into the Dining Area. It's quiet...too quiet.

Anger grunts, "I hate the fact that we have to stand by and not doing anything."

"Same here," Rhino remarks in agreement. "At least it's..."

Suddenly Freddy appears, screeching madly as he jumps at Twilight. She yelps and teleports, causing him to miss.

Foxy appears, giving a wicked smirk while asking, "What have we here?"

"What the hay," Spike yelps as Foxy slashes at him. "But it's 6 AM…or 12 AM, whatever! We shouldn't have to be dealing with this!"

"You all think you're the only ones with overtime?" Marionette asks darkly as he appears to the group along with Chica and Bonnie. "I gave the same thing to my boys...and you forgot one thing: IT'S NIGHTTIME UNTIL I WON!"

"But that's cheating!" Fluttershy cries out to the villain in worry. Marionette is giving his pals some overtime, so to speak.

"Life is a cheat, isn't it?"

"Damn it." Rainbow exclaims, yelping as she dodges Chica's beak and teeth.

"LET'S EAT!!!!" Chica exclaims madly with her eyes glowing like Tartarus.

Twilight prepares to make a run for it, but Freddy blocks her, snarling in a robotic voice, "Hey kids! Where do you think you're going?"

"Get her! Kill her! Make her suffer!" Marionette exclaims, pointing at Twilight, making the Animatronics, including Golden Freddy who appears, surround the princess

"TWILIGHT," The Mane Five and Spike exclaims in horror.

Twilight gasped as the five Animatronics charged in and swung their bare hands at her but were blocked by strong axe. Rhino, the culprit, demands, "GET LOST!"

Rhino pushed his axe up before swung his at Freddy and his gang hard. Foxy snarls, "Aye! You'll be walking the plank for that!"

"I'd like to see you try!"

"Guys, this is insane. They will kill you!" Rarity exclaims frantically.

"We can't wait that long! We're here to help! Don't tell me of what I shouldn't have done!" Anger snaps sternly to the ponies. They are here to help Princess Twilight and he and Rhino will fulfill their mission.

Chica squawks in her robotic voice, "Wow! I sure am (kill them) am hungry! Let's eat!"

"Save me a leg!" Bonnie exclaims madly.

Rhino swung his attacking axe at Freddy and his gang as they jumped, moved back and avoided the attacks from him for a few times. Fluttershy gasped, "Mr. Rhino Steel! Look out!"

Rhino Steel turned and found a piano being thrown right on him. He quickly grabbed it hard. Freddy punched Rhino's back hard causing the piano to fell on the pony's back hard.

"Oh no," Twilight exclaims in shock and horror.

"Oh man, this isn't good!" Rainbow exclaims in worry.

"Ha ha ha; I love a good show!" Marionette exclaims cruelly. He notices that Rhino is getting back up. "Oh, back for more?"

Rhino huffed painfully, "That all you've got! This is child's play! You're gonna have to do better than that!"

"Get him!" Freddy exclaims madly.

Freddy and his gang jumped and attacked Rhino Steel. They punched and kicked on him hard and quick for a few times. Foxy snarled before biting on his shoulder hard and painfully. Bonnie and Chica pulled his front hooves hard and painfully while Golden Freddy pulled Rhino's both back hooves. Freddy took a long rope and strangled Rhino's neck, making him suffocated painfully and wildly.

"Okay, Ah think we watch enough!" Applejack exclaims in terror. This overtime for the Animatronics is pure torture!

"Right, we got to help him!" Fluttershy exclaims meekly and scared.

"Hang on, Rhino! We're coming!" Anger exclaims, preparing to step in to help out.

"Don't! Stay back now! I'll hold them off! Arrgggggggggh," Rhino yells out furiously as he manages to knock the Animatronics off of him. "That all you've got, freaking machines?! You're gonna have to do better! Give your worst, freaks!"

"What- What is he?!" Marionette asks in alarm and disbelief. "A Mystic Pony like him should be killed by now! It's pure Dark Mystic Magic!"

Rhino screamed in anger and determinedly as he endured the pain that Freddy and his gang gave to him. The gang gulps a bit. Rhino is fighting a losing battle here!

"Rhino, please stop, stop!" Twilight exclaims frantically.

"Leave him alone!" Fluttershy cries out to Marionette, pleading to him to make his robots stop. "Please..."

"Fine; Okay, stop and get back to your places!" The Marionette demands to his minions. Rhino has had enough, in his POV.

The Animatronics stop their assault on Rhino then slowly goes back to their usual places. Marionette gave a cruel grin as he disappears from sight. The villain had proven his point: even if the night is over for Twilight's group, it will never be for him and the Animatronics as long as the princesses are his.

Rhino breathed heavily while coughing out loud in spilling some blood out. Twilight and her friends approached to him as they checked on him. The Alicorn spoke, "Oh dear, he is hurt."

"Those robots...the poor souls being forced to do this," Rarity said in sadness. She knew that the souls didn't mean to attack Rhino. The Marionette forced them all into it.

"Is he gonna make it?" Spike ask, getting scared.

Anger placed his right hoof on Rhino's neck. He gasped, “He's still breathing! Don't know how much long he can stand. We have to get him to hospital now!"

"Come on! There's no time to lose! Rhino risked his life to save us. We have to save him now!" Twilight exclaims in concern.

Anger picks his injured colleague up before the group takes their leave. As they do so, the ponies can hear Freddy calling out, "Thanks for coming to Freddy Fazbear's. I'll see you next time."

-----------------

"WHY," Celestia demands to the Marionette who floats on over to her orb. "The night was over!"

"What you did was cruel and wicked!" Luna exclaims in disgust. "Even when you were killed, you still got the cruelty of a Dark Mystic Pony."

"I can be a whole lot of things, cruel, wicked and low. Plus, the pink pony gave me a damn headache, what else can I do?" Marionette mumbles to the captured princesses. "They got one more night left...and then, no more Mr. Nice Guy."

----------------------

As one camera was active, it moves and you noticed at a corner of a room, something was sitting. A large voltage energy impacted the place, focusing onto it. The whole thing dies down as it got Golden Freddy to move thinking prey is near but he notices the sitting robot.

But after a while something sparks lightly and in its endoskeleton sparks to life passed the 20th level meter and rising. The creature slowly was standing up as Golden Freddy back up but it thinks it is a newcomer as it remains still as if waiting for something. Then the creature's eyes open staring into the camera watching it as the thing lets off a roar and makes Golden Freddy react startled but moves to greet it but Golden Freddy looks into the eyes and is shocked but before it can react. Golden Freddy was grabbed by the large figure's bulky hand and is tossed right through the door to the Kitchen.

The creature roars louder pounding it's chest and then punches the Camera as it shatters on impact and the screen goes black.........................Shadow Freddy has awaken, fueled power and one simple goal: Destroy all in its way as it walks backwards into the darkness awaiting............the restaurant's Seventh night will be hell on Equestria.

Chapter 8: The Last Day of Entertainment

At the hospital, Rhino Steel was resting on a patient bed, with an oxygen mask on his muzzle and a water meter machine attached to his hooves. Twilight and her friends looked at him with pure concern and fear. The Marionette has truly beaten the horse crap out of him by forcing the Animatronics into it.

Anger, sensing worry from his friends, spoke up, "Don't worry. He'll make it. Trust me. Rhino Steel had been through a lot of danger and traps. He can make it."

"Yeah...but he hasn't fought against soul-possessed robots before." Twilight said with a sigh.

"What a barbarian!" Rarity exclaims in anger. "I mean, the Marionette forcing those poor foals into committing just wicked deeds!"

"And all because he wanted revenge," Rainbow exclaims in disgust and anger. "I mean, we have beaten the sixth night, can't he accept that?!"

Twilight pauses to think as she spoke, "You know...what we heard about the Marionette being possessed does make sense...and the foal who disappeared outside of Fredbear's Family Diner..."

Azure Phoenix, Bullhound, Schemetrick and Shining Armor had arrived in the area. They've heard about Rhino's injuries and came ASAP.

"Twiley! You're okay!" Shining cries as he hug Twilight tightly and gently. "What happened? Did you find the princesses?"

Twilight shook her head as she explained about the situation from Freddy's. Azure grimly spoke, "This isn't good. We must deal with this at once. We cannot wait too long. I fear this puppet will begin his conquest."

"Lord Azure! Please! Don't! We can still find and save the Princesses from danger." Twilight protests to Azure in alarm and worry.

"Twilight, it's too dangerous! I can't let you do it."

"Please. If I don't do it now... the souls won't find peace, and they will be the puppet's slaves forever. And I have to find out who was the one did it."

Azure thought for the moment as he sighed in defeat and concern, "Very well. This is your last chance to do it. And I would be joining you to deal with this matter; Once and for all."

"I'm going too." Shining said seriously. The unicorn felt responsible that his sister was traumatized by Rough House and his killings when he should've kept an eye on Twilight that day at Freddy Fazbear's. It's time to make up for it.

"So am I. That puppet owe me a hurting friend. And I want take an eye out of his. He will know my wrath!" Anger exclaims in anger, showing how he got his name.

"I'm going too! He hurts my best friend, I'll break him!" Bullhound exclaims furiously, determined to avenge what happened to Rhino.

Schemetrick bows to Twilight as he spoke, "You can count on me too, my lady. I have research during the long night. I might have found a way to free them from the bodies and even destroy whoever possessed the puppet."

Twilight smiled as he said, "Thank you."

"I'm going too!" Everyone turned and saw the wounded Rhino coming out from the patient room. He struggled in walking while groaning in pain. Doctors, nurses and securities are pulling him back hard. "I'm not going down without a fight!"

"You can't! If you go again, you won't live this time!"

"Right, don't be stubborn as Ah was when Ah wouldn't let mah friends help me!" Applejack exclaims in alarm.

"Yes, you can't go." Fluttershy said meekly and worried.

"Going won't be helping, it's suicide!" Spike exclaims in worry for Rhino's health.

Rhino cringes some more, but he kept on insisting, "I'm going means I'm going! If my lord goes, I'm going!"

"Rhino; remain here!" Azure exclaims sternly to Rhino.

"But my lord-!"

"You're too wounded and injured to fight. And I order you to stay for recovery until I return."

Rhino grunted in upset, "Very well, my lord. I shall obey... for now..."

As the group is leaving, Twilight pauses as she spoke up, "Lord Azure?"

"Yes, Twilight," Azure ask Twilight, pondering what is on the princess's mind.

"Celestia once told me that a foal disappeared outside of Fredbear's Family Diner. I want to know: does he got any powers? And what kind of a pony is he?"

"....Twilight...I have heard through sources of that foal...and if I am sensing is right, I may know who could be possessing that puppet..."

-----------------------

The time has come, the seventh night, or Custom Night as some ponies may say. Most of the soldiers stood with the Royal Guard, preparing to charge in if the worst comes to pass. Twilight's group, Spike, Shining, as well as Lord Azure's group are entering, preparing for the biggest night that could either spell the end of Equestria...or the salvation.

Everyone heads right into the office...which appears to be a small but enough for them all. Shining spoke, "So what now?"

"Now Pinkamena or Golden Heart can show up, do something weird or happy and then we will begin the night," Pinkie explains happily as she bounces around.

"Random as usual," Bullhound remarked while rolling his eyes a bit.

Twilight begins working on the cameras, pressing the lights in case of early visitors, etc. The mare spoke, "Now then..."

"Halt!" Anger exclaims, pointing a sword outside as someone is approaching, "Friend or foe."

"Friend," Golden Heart said as he peeks into the office. "And forgive me for coming in, but I got something for the princess."

"Yes, go ahead." Twilight said with a nod. Golden Heart must be helping in saving the princesses.

As Golden Heart comes in the office, his horn glows and gives Twilight a paper. He says, "This is where the Princesses are being held; it is best we wait till we have a chance to get them and I had told them and now will tell you...........it was hard and rough but Aurora Star is OK........with Pinkamena and my help, we were able to carefully restore her missing Frontal lobe. But after that she remembers everything and then she hit my sister right in the muzzle. We were able to calm things tell her what happen and by the time, this night is over and all is well, they will be coming here.

That makes the group surprised but happy to know Aurora Star is ok. But Rainbow asks puzzled, "Wait where is your sister? The pink pony that talks to Freddy," Golden Heart's ears fold worried and concerned.

"Look at the recording; it's near right now that my sister is speaking with Freddy and his gang."

The group look as it shows Pinkamena looking at Freddy who says while griping her blade, "..............to think this all happen at Fredbear's Family diner.........when the killer killed the child and it lead to all this."

Freddy is puzzled and surprised at this as something clicks. He was about to speak but she cuts him off and says, "There's no hope for the soul in the puppet Marionette to go at peace unless the puppet is destroyed; if there's no other way.........he has been trapped for year and lost his mind and sanity. Now here we are with him in rage and fury and lust for revenge................but there is still hope for this place......................still hope for everypony and that is only for you and the others to decide the fate of everypony."

Freddy said, "I know I gave the Pinkie Promise but I dread that He will not allow me or the others to keep it."

"You and your friends deserve to be redeemed."

Pinkamena lightly opens Freddy’s jaw as voices in his head tells him to kill but he resists as they see it looked like she was using a small knife, carefully scraping dry blood off. After a bit, the pink pony stops after doing the same with the other robots, giving them a hug after being done and ready's with Foxy. Freddy says, "You let your brother take the music box to Twilight and her friends, your putting yourself at risk."

"As long as the music plays, that puppet will not get me, my brother or the ponies; besides I know he would sent the drone of his to destroy it along with Shadow Freddy."

".............Shadow Freddy?????"

Pinkamena begins working on scraping the blood off Foxy's mouth and on the teeth while saying, "It is purple when in the light but still he is larger..............besides I was there..................if only this place would not be closing down because of all that's happening."

Freddy feels some guilt along with the others about that. Pinkamena is done and gives Foxy a hug as well and walks a bit and pulls out a box as Freddy is puzzled.

"What is in the box?" Freddy ask Pinkamena curiously.

"Well a few parts and pieces." Pinkamena explains happily. She then opens it and showed parts. The pink pony picks them up and places them on the table. Foxy notices that some look like they belong to him. "Since I got to know you all and such, I had worked making things and parts .I know that you Freddy and others are ok.............just glitch and some loose joints, I can fix the joints but Foxy..........well that's a whole other story."

Pinkamena then walks to Foxy as she then gathers parts and then says, "Foxy I Pinkie Promise you will be safe; just don't plan to bite me ok?"

Foxy just stares as she then carefully was removing the shredded parts off. They make a clunk sound hitting the floor as she then is done. Foxy was more bared but not fully (mostly his face) as she then puts in the new parts on him and tightens the bolts and nuts in place. Pinkamena is done with that and Foxy was like the others, fully covered with no Exposed endoskeleton as she then stands up.

"Now for the mouth," Pinkamena said with a smile.

Pinkamena then opens Foxy's Jaw and she puts in new teeth into him. The pink pony then moves one hoof and wiggles the lower jaw as scraping sounds are heard. With a yank the jaw clamps back into the right place as she then replaces the old joints with new joints. Pinkamena moves the Jaw up and down and smiles, petting his head and then she brushes the old parts and joints into a sack. Pinkamena then picks up the box and walks to Freddy and the other two as they look surprised.

Pinkamena spoke, "I might not be able to fix the glitch's since well you might already know that and your friends know as well."

"Why are you doing this Pinkamena............why are you showing so much care for us even after all that's happened?" Freddy ask, touched by Pinkamena's help. She then begins fixing loose nuts and bolts off Chica and Bonnie and is done. The mare then walks to Freddy.

"Like I said before, you deserve better and I know the kids would miss you greatly."

Freddy and his pals ponder all of this and for once he and his friends feel their souls are at peace. She is done fixing Freddy and smiles, giving him a big hug as he hugs back. But the bear then notices the clock and then in an instant quickly pushes her away. Pinkamena is puzzled.

"Why you do that?" Pinkamena ask a bit hurt.

"It's almost 12:00." Freddy said seriously.

Pinkamena turns around seeing; it is 11:40 much to her shock. She gets her things and darts to a Vent but bumps into something and tumbles onto her back. The pink pony slowly recovers and notices along with Freddy and his group and the ones watching on Camera see what looks like Freddy but it was larger than him. It's Level meter was off the charts............it was Shadow Freddy and he is ready to kill. She reaches her blade but it grabs her by the neck as the pink pony struggles and lifts her up. Her hooves no longer can feel the ground as it knocks the blade far away near the Stage.

Freddy sees and looks as she struggles and was lightly gasping for air. The pink pony try's to break its grip but it was firm and it tighten its grip as she coughs hard; even her brrs had no effect (since it lacks fear). Freddy and others watches, unsure what to do as it lets off a low growl. The monster tightens its grip as some bones are heard popping. She coughs out a little blood as Pinkamena feels her life fading as her hoofs going limp. Freddy twitches and sparks as the others twitches and spark as we go back to seeing the struggle. Pinkamena was nearing death but then out of nowhere, something hits Shadow Freddy in the face........it was a pizza.

Shadow Freddy roars, losing its vision as another splatter is heard. Another pizza was thrown as its grip loosened and then notice, seeing Freddy as he is holding some boxes and says, "Who wants a pizza?"

Freddy then throws another pizza as it hits Shadow Freddy once more in the face. The monster roars as it opens its mouth, readying to bite the pony's head off but Freddy aims and tosses another Pizza into its mouth causing it to splat on impact, locking up its jaws. Shadow Freddy struggles to try to use his other arm but Foxy at fast speeds grabs its arm along with Bonnie. Chica grabs it's right arm trying to pry it's hand off Pinkamena as it struggles roaring loudly.

The Pizza in it's mouth was coming out. Freddy then gets down and then moves as it grabs Pinkamena's blade and says, "Now I don't give a life in what Marionette says or does in his time; this is now way going overboard!" Shadow Freddy roars loudly and with his might knocks Chica, Bonnie, and Foxy off it, and that knocks off as well as that act made it lost his grip on Pinkamena. She was spiraling and lands on the ground and skids on the cold ground. Freddy says, "First it was Golden Freddy and now you."

Shadow Freddy roars pounding on its chest. Freddy was recalling Golden Freddy was but a mindless drone but looking into its eyes, he then notices something shocking."

".........you...............you have no soul.........................." Freddy gasps in horror.

Shadow Freddy roars again as it punches. Freddy blocks it but the brute force knocks the blade out of Freddy's arm. He nearly tumbles as it slides near Pinkamena. As she looks at it, her vision gets fuzzy as her tail moves griping. Pinkamena looks, seeing one trap left over, aiming to knock something into the closet. She waits for the right moment as Freddy locks hands with Shadow Freddy as one tries to overpower the other but it is slowly becoming one sided.

Freddy was skidding as then Foxy, Chica, and Bonnie join Freddy, using their strength as they begin turning the odds on their side. Shaodw Freddy roars and Freddy throws his own weight. breaking the grip as Shadow Freddy loses his balance. Freddy then moves and rams pushing it back. Foxy, Chica and Bonnie join and combined, they impact him as Shadow Freddy tumbles, ending up on its knees. Freddy stands tall with his pals as it slowly gets up, glaring and not going to be beaten.

A voice is heard followed by them seeing a blade flying as it cuts something, "Move.........."

The four look and see a large metal item coming. They get out of the way as Shadow Freddy notices it but it reacts not quick enough and *GONG CRASH * the thing impacts him as it sends him flying into an open closet. Things tumble onto him as it groans. Freddy shuts the door while Foxy, Chica and Bonnie push a vending machine. Then Freddy boards it up as they recover. Banging is heard from in the closet as the blade skids to the pink pony.

"Argh, that's what you get, you Scurvy Bilge Rat!" Foxy snaps at the mad Shadow Freddy.

"You said it." Bonnie said with a nod.

"Will it hold?" Chica ask in concern.

"Only time will tell, I fear the doors would not be able to hold him back; by looks he is beyond the max level and by his size and brute force. we can only hope this holds till 6 am." Freddy said with a look of fear. "But what worries me was that it might not been programmed like we are."

The Animatronics turn and notice Pinkamena not moving. They move quickly. Freddy stares and places a hand onto her neck gently as they worry but he feels something.

"She's got a pulse." Freddy said in relief. His friend isn't dead!

"What we do Freddy?" Bonnie asks Freddy worried. "Midnight's coming and she can't move! I heard the bones in her neck popped! I am surprised she's still breathing; she must be really tough!"

"It be true me lads." Foxy growled, nodding his fellow colleagues/robots. "She sure can take a blow but I fear she might be nearing her final breaths if she can't get help."

"What about those Ponies and Golden Heart? They can help." Chica said, reminding the others of the ones still in the security office.

"There's no time but I think there might be just one chance for her." Freddy said, having an idea that could help Pinkamena. "Be right back."

Freddy heads off. As the three wait, Pinkamena coughs out more blood. The three do what they can to keep her breathing. The clock is 11:56; time was nearing up. Freddy comes back with something covered. Bonnie says, "Freddy we got trouble blood is pouring out of her mouth; unless we get her to her brother, she might choke on her blood."

"Well, I found a way to move her without harm."

Freddy pulls the covers off. It was a pony endoskeleton not suited yet but was able to move. They and the watching eyes are surprised as Pinkamena's looks but her vision was weak.

"We were not supposed to reveal that." Bonnie reminds Freddy in worry.

Freddy gave a serious look to Bonnie as he spoke, "Losing the one who showed us so much kindness to us is more important than facing the Puppet's wrath."

The Animatronics all look at each other and think. The robots know he was right. They carefully pick her up and lay her on a flat roller. Foxy places the blade beside her while Freddy ties a rope to the tail joint of the Pony bot and ties the other end to the hook on the roller. Pinkamena watches and then pushes a button.

Freddy mumbles to himself, "This better work."

Some sparks come out as the pony's eyes glow blue. It says, "Hello boys and girls and the rest of you. I am Pinkamena, ready to have fun kids............let’s party, party, PARTY!"

She stands waiting as Freddy places an arm onto Pinkamenas hoof and says, "me and my pals wanted this to be a surprise but we have yet to place the costume and worked out the little bugs but this will take you straight to your friends and brother. Don't worry; it is not under the Puppet's control........maybe when this is over we can complete this together."

"You see............I told you...............you can choose your own path.............see you at 6 am."

Pinkamena closes her eyes as the animatronic begins walking, taking her with them. The group watches as Bonnie says, "You know Marionette's going to blow a fuse."

Freddy just scoff, "Let him; besides soon we will all be redeemed." They nod as they head back into their places. Freddy looks at the Camera and says, "Sorry for what we done, Twilight. I hope you can forgive us and if you saw that, just be on guard."

The robots get ready for the final night as the animatronic pony says nearing the office, "Let’s play hide and seek.................let’s play time to play music, MUSIC Lets sing a song, SONG!"

Back in the office, the group stood as the animatronic came in. Golden Heart came over, sighing a bit, "She's okay..."

"Very clever," Azure said, glancing at the animatronic, "One that isn't under the Marionette's control."

"And hopefully we can make our move." Twilight said as she and her friends prepare for the big night.

12:00 AM, 7th Night

As the dark and stormy skies covered the air, a dark swirling vortex was circling over the restaurant. And watching this from his hidden lair, the Marionette was seen cackling in the shadows that would really freak folks out. He was seeing this storm, and he knew of what it meant, for there was dark magic involve that none could see...

"At last, the night has come. It's time we end this game once and for all." Marionette declared forth in rating himself of the matter at hand here. "Storm of Evil, heed my words...bring your force down and empower us creatures that are in-animated objects! Let us feel the power to strike, give us all, and my greatest creation the power....TO DESTROY!" He was preaching to the storm to give them the power to which they can use it to end the Mane Six once and for all...for the dark magic he sense, can make them truly a force to be reckoned with.

"KA-BLAMFRUVHMMM....." Then a gigantic bolt of lightning combined with the loudest thunder impacted the restaurant, causing what would be an earthquake in motion. "Brizzizizizzz....Triziziz...." Soon the endless surging of what was a million volts shot across the restaurant, but was jolting right into Freddy and the gang, making them twitch and shake like never before. "Hey-hey...Kids....It's Time For...(CAAAAAARNAAAAAGE)!" Freddy was speaking it's prerecording before it's dark voice of evil spoke this off for him; as all the animatronics showed glowing crimson eyes as if truly possess to be....EVIL!

"Keh-Heh-Hah-Hah-Hah-Haaahhh..." The Marionette's voice laughs across the halls as the powerful lightning super-charge even Golden Freddy to suddenly make him lose his senses to go...ballistic. But the worse was seen when deep in the shadows of the closet, something far more worse is seen...as it also received the power boost, not that it needed it before, but now...things are really gonna go down hill...to Hell soon.

The shaking was slowly stopping as the Mane Six, Spike, and those with them in the Office recovered from whatever just happened. "Brizizivhm...BOOM!" But then the Level device Pinkie Pie was looking at just blew up on them, that powerful impact of lightning must have really done something.

"Darling, tell me that isn't a bad sign." Rarity slowly was asking in not liking what happened just now.

"Um, it's a bad sign, because....before it blew, I saw the Level of Freddy and the gang." Pinkie Pie slowly spoke in concern at seeing the destroy Level Machine, as the robot killers have gone up again.

"Let me guess, they're already at Level 20?" Applejack rolled her eyes to guess in what level Freddy and the gang are at now.

"Yep, the MAX volume and maybe more; that last lightning strike really did something." Pinkie Pie nodded off in stating that what they got has now made their foes far stronger up to 100 percent.

"Oh no, last night, when they work overtime, they almost killed Rhino!" Fluttershy yelps in recalling what happened the night before, and that was only at merely Level 19 & 18.

"And they were all below 20, who knows how much more deadly they'll be tonight!" Spike agrees with Fluttershy, now Freddy and his group are gonna be even more deadlier than before.

"Well as long as we got our own game plans, we at least put a stop to the craziness." Rainbow Dash issued that they have to work things out and to stop whatever's coming at them.

"Um, there is one tiny-itty-bitty thing I need to say, when I check the Level Output, it gave me one more level than usual." Pinkie Pie nervously spoke in having to give one more piece of bad news here.

"Was it Golden Freddy?" Twilight asked in thinking the new addition must have been from one costume they don't see much and only is rarely seen.

"I'm not sure, it said Freddy, but the first word said....Shadow. So I'm going on a guess and think it's called Shadow Freddy...which is weird considering, I never heard of him before." Pinkie Pie stated to say this in saying that the new level to which this one was at Level 20 was possibly called; Shadow Freddy, which makes him different from the usual Freddy & Golden Freddy together. "He could be that big feller we saw!"

Everyone was now serious gonna have to stay on their toes, or hooves for this final night, the 7th night. It looks like it's gonna be one night that will top the other nights like no other. For now the animatronics are gonna be coming at them at the Max Level, and they just barely survive the sixth night. And what about this new foe, this...Shadow Freddy...it doesn't sound good at all...

As they were getting prepared, Twilight said in a grim and serious tone, "Guys, this is our final night at Freddy's. If we make it all the way to 6:00 AM, all will be back to normal. But with all the animatronics at the maximum level, along with Shadow Freddy, it won't be easy to pull through."

"On the plus side, if we win, we get the third gold star just like in the game!" Pinkie exclaimed randomly and happily.

"But if we lose, we can say goodbye to Equestria." Fluttershy whimpered.

"According to this, there is a secret room behind an opened panel in the kitchen." Azure said, looking at what was written. "A camera would've shown it through special technology.

"Of course; No wonder there was no visual o' 'de kitchen! It must've been knocked out 'ta keep folks fro' seeing 'de secret panel!" Applejack exclaimed in realization.

"Then let's go to the kitchen and find that secret room!" Spike shouted.

“I got to help my little sister Pinkamena." Golden Heart said as he and Bullhound worked on keeping Pinkamena healthy. "That Shadow Freddy thing did a number on her."

"And we need to keep the robots from..." Rarity stopped as she heard stomping noises coming from the left door. "Excuse me."

Rarity presses the button for the West Hall. Bonnie appear, saying, "H-h-h-h-h-hey! It's your old pal Bonnie the B-b-b-b-b-bunny!"

"Yes, we know, already." Rarity remarked with a grunt. "Can you please leave us?"

"Awwww, why do that? I just wanna (bury you alive) be your friend..." Bonnie said. "(Until the day you die!)"

Rarity just closed the door on Bonnie, calling, "My friends don't try to kill me, Bonnie!"

"Okay, here's an idea. We will make a distraction. Shining, I want you and a few soldiers to help Golden Heart get Pinkamena to safely." Twilight said to her brother with a nod.

"Got it, Twilight," Shining nodded in confirmation.

"Also, Azure and his soldiers can sneak into the kitchen, steal the princesses and make their escape." Twilight said with a nod.

"It shall be done." Schemetrick said. "But how will you get your distraction?"

"Oh, I think I know how. With a simple spell," Twilight said as she conjured some sort of spell, making something appears.

Most of everyone gasped in surprise. Azure blinked as he commented, "Well, that must be something."

-------------

Once Bonnie was gone, the left door opened as something came out, heading into the Dining Room. The robots were there, thinking on what to do...when it saw him.

The figure laughed wickedly as Freddy gasped, "No...it can't be..."

"IT'S OUR KILLER! GET HIM!" Chica exclaimed furiously. It appeared Rough House is in the restaurant, coming after him!

'Rough House' ran off as the robots rushed after him. Unknown to them, a familiar Alicorn peek his head out.

"Okay, they're gone." Golden Heart said quickly. He, Shining and some soldiers came out and rush off to the safest place: the doctor's room. In case anyone got injured at the person, one was nearby to help a hurt foal or adult.

Back in the office, Twilight sighed a bit as Rainbow commented, "Gotta admit, egghead, making that illusion of Rough House was a stoke of genius!"

"Thanks, Rainbow Dash." Twilight said. "Now let's find that secret room!"

"We will do it. Best you all stay here." Azure said calmly, "The music box? I don't want that Puppet sneaking up on me."

Fluttershy gave the music box to Azure. With that, he, Anger, Bullhound, Schemetrick and the remaining soldiers remaining headed out the East Hall door.

Rarity checked out the image for Pirate's Cove. It's open with the 'It's Me' sign. The unicorn closed the door in time just as Twilight checked the camera for the West Hall. Foxy was running down it, but all he did was get to the door, pounding on it like mad.

"Arr, arr! B-b-b-b-best to be opening the door me, lad! Or ye be (gutted like a pig) trapped!" Foxy's voice yelled out madly, wanting to kill.

Fluttershy squeaked as she quickly hid under the desk, not wanting Foxy to come in and gut her.

"Let me in...LET ME IN! LET ME IN! (CELESTIA DAMN IT! I WILL SLAY YE DOWN!!!!)" Foxy yelled out furiously, hitting the door various times.

"Go away!" Fluttershy cried in fear as she kept huddling underneath the desk.

"Foxy, I'm sorry for what happened! I should've told ponies but..." Twilight began to say.

Suddenly, Twilight screamed as Foxy tried to get in through the window, trying to smash it open.

"Stubborn fox, ain't he?" Applejack asked her friends nervously.

"MOMMY," Fluttershy wailed in fright from under the desk. If Foxy breaks in, she's dead!

Pinkie grabbed her flashlight and flashed it in Foxy's eyes. He yelped and ran off in alarm.

"Back off, you punk!" Rainbow exclaimed sternly. She flew over to the whimpering Fluttershy. "Fluttershy, you okay?"

Fluttershy replied timidly, "Y-Yeah. I... Is he gone?"

"Yes." Rainbow said with a nod, making Fluttershy sigh a bit in relief.

"It's 1 AM." Twilight said, checking out the clock.

"How times flies when one pony's having fun." Spike remarked sarcastically, "If you call this fun."

--------------

The kitchen was bare, no one was there, except for Azure's group who managed to get through the Dining Room and into the Kitchen.

"Where's that secret panel?" Azure mumbled while looking around.

Bullhound noticed some sort of lever was out of place on the side of the fridge. He pulled it causing a secret panel to open. The Mystic Pony called out, "Sir! Check this out!"

"Good work." Azure said with a grin. "Men, prepare yourselves."

The Mystic Ponies snuck into the secret panel. Nothing in here but darkness...and three spheres; Anger took one closer look and noticed three familiar Alicorns inside them.

"Sir, we found them." Anger said to Azure as he picks up the three spheres. "Too small but it's them."

"Celestia, is that you?" Azure called out to Celestia in the sphere.

Celestia, hearing this, looked up, speaking, "Azure, thank goodness. Is it you?"

"Yes, we're putting an end to this, tonight." Azure said sternly. "The Dark Mystic Pony possessing the Marionette will fall no matter what."

"Listen, there is one more thing." Celestia said, wanting to speak of something involving Golden Freddy.

"We will speak later. Now to figure out what to do from here," Azure said as Anger looks out the door.

"Those robots are still chasing that hologram." Anger said, peeking out.

The ones hiding in the doctor's room watch on. Golden Heart is bandaging up Pinkamena quite nicely. It will do until she can be taken to a hospital. Shining watch on, hoping that those possessed bots hasn't seen them yet.

The Animatronics corners the 'killer' at the backstage area. Freddy smirked as he asked, "Back to the scene of the crime, eh killer? Now it's time you pay the p-p..." Suddenly the image fizzled a bit. "What?"

'Rough House' just shrugged, then disappeared from sight. Bonnie asked in confusion, "Hey, where did he go?"

"You dopes," The Marionette yelled out angrily as he appeared from out of nowhere. "Your Killer was never here! You are played for FOOLS; WHY MUST I GOT YOU AS FOOLS?!"

The Marionette zapped the robots who yelped a bit, then growled more madly, more out of control. Marionette now ordered madly, "Now get that power down faster!"

The Animatronics didn't waste time in heading back on their mission. They head down each hallway and begin pounding at the doors to the security office, making the power go down a bit faster!

"Um, guys....we're running low on power!" Spike pointed to warn the gang of how much power they have left, 6 percent, and dropping.

"Great. If we let up, those things will come get us and if we run out, it's over!" Rainbow Dash groans to complain of their situation looking grimmer by the second.

"That's why I brought this for us to set up." Twilight spoke in revealing something under some covers, and it was revealed to be...

"A treadmill," AJ raised her eyebrow, there was some treadmill exercise device hooked up to some cables and wires into the system of the place they were in.

"Twilight darling, what is this for?" Rarity asked her friend in not knowing this task.

"Is it to help improve our running away from those scary things?" Fluttershy asked with worry in knowing if Freddy and his gang come, they need to work hard to run away.

"No, if we can hook this up to the controls here, we should be able to help charge more power so that we don't run out." Twilight explained the case of what she's done, she's going to provide power to the restaurant to help power it up.

"Goody! So who's gonna run on the thing for hours and hours until it's 6 in the morning?" Pinkie Pie smiled in liking the idea.

"Well, we need fast runners, AJ, Rainbow; we'll need either of you to help out." Twilight pointed out their best physically in shape ponies.

"Got'cha!" Rainbow Dash replied off to say.

"Can do," Applejack nodded proudly to say that.

"Bet I can out last you running to keep us going than you can AJ," Rainbow bragged to her friend in what she can do.

"Ye can try, but Ah may just beat yah record Dashie!" AJ remarked off in accepting the challenge.

Soon, Rainbow Dash got on the treadmill first to start running, that helped provide power to their area. If they could keep this up, they may just keep themselves safely kept here and not worry about anyone getting in.

"Keep it up, you two!" Twilight said confidently, "As long as you keep running on these treadmills, the power will never run out!"

"Hey, what if we get them all in one room, and I set up party cannons to fire bigger shots to take them out?" Pinkie Pie suggested this.

"And how would ye do dat?" AJ raised an eyebrow to the question as she and Rainbow kept on running.

"Easy, I'll disguise myself as one of them, pretend to be a animatronic furry wanting to kill you, set it up, lure them in, and then set off the attack!" Pinkie Pie explained which made everyone stare at her weirdly.

"That has got to be the stupidest plan I ever heard of, what makes you think they believe you're one of them?" Rainbow Dash protested to hearing something so stupid, it'll never work.

"Easy, beep-boop, beep-boop..." Pinkie was making weird movements and actions to convince her friends.

"Hugh....I dare say, she is determined." Rarity sighed to say in seeing what they got here.

---------------

The scene showed Pinkie Pie, wearing an empty pony furry costume and somehow getting pass the Animatronics, as she was moving and acting like a robot in all suspicious and killer manners. Her friends watch her from the cameras, the pink pony was good. She enter what was the stage, and was setting up a few party cannons to set them on big blow out modes.

"Time to..." Pinkie was turning, only to see that all the animatronics were in the room, and they look to the new addition to their place curiously. "Eh...beep-boop-bop, kill fleshies..." The girl was making weird movements to be convincing she was not a living being.

The animatronics nodded their heads in buying that and were about to turn and leave...

"Phew..." Pinkie sighed to wipe the sweat off...only to knock off her costume's head.

Freddy Fazbear and his gang turn around in seeing that with bright eyes as they made weird sounds of alert to point at who was here.

"Uh-oh," Pinkie Pie yelped in seeing what she did here.

"Pinkie; You have to get out of there!" Fluttershy pleaded for her friend to leave.

The evil creatures were closing in to attack the girl, but then she brought..a remote.

"If I'm going down, I'm going down....PARTYING!" Pinkie Pie announced this with a determine face while pressing the button.

Then without warning, multiple party cannons fired strong blast shots all around and continued bombarding the animatronics to create a streamer and confetti cloud that block all view.

"What happened; I can't see!" Twilight spoke when she and everyone in the other room can't see what happened by security camera.

Then without warning, Pinkie zoomed in to shut the door behind her while looking scared out of her wits to pant like crazy while out of her disguise.

"Pant...pant.....wow, that was almost too close!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed to say in her short breaths. "Did that work?"

The camera screen zoomed when the cloud faded, only to show the animatronics of one of them as but a robot growling and ripping the camera from its spot; making it go dead. Worst yet, the bots pounded on the door so fast, the power to the office finally went out.

"Or...maybe not," Pinkie Pie looked with worry; she may have made those things angry now.

While the power was out, Freddy and the others were preparing to come inside the doors, but they were bounced back...

"What..." Freddy started in confusion.

"The..." Chica continued on, confused as her colleague.

"Hay..." Bonnie/Foxy both said at the same time.

All of them finished it up in unison, "Was that?!"

Inside the office, there was some glue that was strong enough to keep the doors from opening up. Pinkie grins, holding up a tube of Very Super Glue, saying, "Luckily, Pinks came prepared."

"Nice work, Pinkie!" Twilight praised her perky pink friend.

Then, without warning, the doors of where the gang were at were being banged from outside while metal hands were trying to squeeze through the cracks, trying to break the glue.

"Aaahhhh; they're here! This is the...worst....thing...EVER!" Rarity screamed in terror of what was going on.

"We're trapped like rats! Now wha," AJ asked in what to do, there's no way out from here.

"Wait, up there! It's a vent! We can crawl through it." Twilight pointed in seeing a vent that they can use to escape.

"But will it hold our weight? It looks rusty and old?" Spike pointed out the issue, but was cut...

"Skip thinking, just do," Rainbow Dash stated to snatch Spike to quickly open the vent hatch to help in their escape.

Soon, the group climbed or flew into the vent by opening the cage and then closing it afterwards to escape the evil animatronics that came into the room.

Bonnie blinks as he hears movement from the vents up above, making him look up. In the vents, as the group moved on, Fluttershy screamed in alarm as the vent floor under her broke open, revealing Bonnie who was screeching like mad before falling to the floor, taking the floor with her.

The girls and Spike managed to grab Fluttershy, leaving her hanging literally. They pull her up just as Bonnie got up, glaring. He then jumped up, swiping at Fluttershy who was pulled to safely in time.

"How in tarnation did they find another way in," Applejack asked in shock, "The doors were super-glued!"

"This vent is outside!" Rainbow exclaimed frantically to her friend.

"Then we should've sealed the vents outside as well!" Pinkie remarked.

"More walking, keep moving," Twilight called out to her friends as they all kept on moving.

The seven kept moving until they found themselves above the dining room. One by one, they landed in the Dining Area where the two groups who were hiding were waiting.

"Thank Celestia." Shining said with a sigh as he helped his sister.

"Speaking of which, where is she?" Twilight asked worried.

"Right here," Azure said as Anger held up the spheres with the princesses inside. "We haven't gotten them out just yet."

"We will figure that out later. Right now!" Twilight began to say, but then she screamed, "AAAAAHH!!!!"

"Arr, arr, what have we here?" Foxy remarked wickedly as he came out of the darkness.

Chica came into the Backstage, peeking out as she said, "Boy! I am (willing to kill) am hungry! Let's eat!!!!"

Bonnie appeared, taunting, "No running around; Naughty, naughty!"

"H-h-h-h-hey," Freddy laughed as he came out of the darkness. "Who wants to p-p-p-party?"

"Does this feel like something out of Jurassic Park?" Pinkie asked her friends randomly as usual.

Everyone can hear mad laughter as the Marionette appears, riding on Golden Freddy. Azure spoke sternly, "So, we meet at last."

"Got to admit; We all have a good run for 7 Nights...but sadly, the last night is your night. You are all terminated!" Marionette booms out madly to the heroes.

"Not fair, we didn't even get paid again!" Rainbow protest, upset that the group would be terminated before getting paid again.

"Dashie, we don't even work here." Applejack remark, rolling her eyes a bit.

"Why do you want me dead? What is your game?" Twilight demands sternly to the Marionette.

"Oh, that's for you to find out...but never. Freddy; Please, kindly rip Princess Sparkle apart before smashing the other princesses." Marionette said to Freddy calmly.

Freddy nods as he prepares to advance on Twilight. Looks like this is it, the Marionette has indeed won.

"Stop, wait!" Fluttershy exclaims. Freddy stops in his tracks upon hearing that. "Listen. Freddy, this isn't you. This isn't everyone else either! Freddy's was a place for foals and adult ponies alike to have fun! It shouldn't be a slaughterhouse for anypony to get killed in."

"She's right." Twilight said as she steps forward. "And...for the foals trapped in the robotic suits...I'm sorry."

"What?" Foxy ask surprised. Freddy looks surprised as is Chica and Bonnie.

"I should've said something years ago when I was filly or all these years. But I didn't because of what the killer did to you. I was traumatized for years, not saying a word, and thus, allow you all to suffer...even being used by the Marionette like this! For that, I'm truly sorry."

The Animatronics felt a bit...touched by the apology, even Golden Freddy is somehow. For a moment, it looks like their souls are truly at peace.

That is until the Marionette chuckles, "Awww, how cute. Too bad your damn apology came years too late! Get rid of her, Fred!"

Suddenly someone walked into the building somehow, yelling, "Ya' guys! Tiger's in 'de House!"

Meanwhile, Mane Six and Spike heard stranger's voice as they look horrified to see another innocent pony enter the building until Pinkie Pie noticed something on its back.

Pinkie Pie gasped, "Is that Pizza?"

Twilight Sparkle gasped, "No, Pinkie Pie! What's that Alicorn doing here?"

Applejack wonder as she ask, "Twilight, How ya know it's an Alicorn?"

Twilight Sparkle explained, "Only I can sense what magic came in, but... This Alicorn had different magic to me..."

The newcomer trotted into the room where the party held at and saw Freddy and his gang, gasping in joy.

The Alicorn smiled while saying, "Hey, hey Freddy! It's being a while!"

Freddy looked up and surprised spoke, "Flare Tiger! It's being a long time! And you're taller than last time I saw you!"

Chica, Bonnie, and Foxy smiled while exclaiming, "Flare Tiger!"

Flare Tiger chuckle as she put the twenty-five boxes down and hugged Freddy. She lets him go until a sense went up her back and realizing something's wrong. The Marionette looks annoyed. Who is this newcomer?

Flare Tiger wonder as she asks, "Freddy Bear... Is there something ya want 'ta tell me?"

Freddy Bear nodded while saying, "Yeah... Could we sit down for a while?"

Flare Tiger smiled while saying, "Sure!"

"Err, we're in the middle of a battle here." Anger point out a bit awkwardly. "Can we get on with..."

"No, we can figure out how to get Celestia, Luna and Cadance free during this time." Shining said thoughtfully. Flare Tiger's appearance could help the heroes out!

"I WILL KILL HER!" The Marionette exclaims as she prepares to attack, but Anger and Bullhound quickly push at it, knocking the villain out of the room. This could take a while.

They sat down as the Mane Six and Spike could see them, sitting and friendly talk as they're baffled at it. Azure meanwhile got to work on casting a spell to opening the spheres.

Rainbow Dash groaned, "Again!?! First, it's dark pink pony, now this too!?!?"

Spike smile while saying, "Good thing!"

They're nodded and listen in as Flare Tiger is shocked at the stories that Freddy told her about.

Flare Tiger hummed, "Ah see... About this past involved with Twilight Sparkle is fine but don't kill her."

Freddy Bear gulped, "Um... About that... This boss... his name is Marionette and he's told us that she's one who behind this mess!"

Flare Tiger confused spoke up, "Marionette? Ah don't recalled to met him before, due in the time where ya' born."

Foxy gasped, "Whoa, whoa, back up lad! Ya said... that's we're born first!?!?"

Flare Tiger nodded as they're looked each other with worried as Bonnie asked, "Um... Is anyway that you can recall?"

Flare Tiger smiled while explaining, "Golden Freddy was there along with you. Freddy Bear and Golden Freddy, or should Ah called him Golden Bear... as they're siblings."

Theye looked each other with worried and cautious as Flare Tiger noticed something not right as Flare Tiger spoke, "Where is Golden Freddy?"

Freddy Bear gulped, "He... He's a mindless drone...it's due to the fact that I put his soul into the suit and the Marionette didn't use his magic to help out..."

Flare Tiger nodded while saying, "Then ya' need 'ta remember what is 'de first memory of ya' life?"

Freddy Bear realized while saying, "First murder! I do recall about five children... Oh no..."

China gasped, "Then Marionette isn't the first begin with..."

Flare Tiger grinned while exclaiming, "Ah'm glad ya' noticed the history of ya', here's the hint of the true murder!"

They leap to listen as the Mane Six and Spike gulped and listens as Flare Tiger spoke in tone.

"The One who came from the Past, the One came from the Present is same one...
Seek for what kept the business go on, Kill the innocents of life to created machines..."
The Machines is 'de Souls and Seek where freedom lies in hooves of Bearers of the Harmony...
Bringer forward the Justice upon this murder and it will be the fall of its business...
All the Truth will Reveal lie in the tales of side to side..."

They nodded as Flare Tiger squealed, "Now, Let's party!"

They cheer as Flare Tiger looked at the camera and smiled, "Ya guys! There is more room for ya!" She is talking to everyone else.

"Uh, sorry, my sis is in no position to do that." Golden Heart said awkwardly, pointing out Pinkamena's injuries to Flare Tiger.

"Oh. Well, later then."

The Mane Six and Spike yelped in shock as Rarity gulped, "How was she able to do that?"

Twilight Sparkle think deeply as Flare Tiger's words rings through her mind and until realized with a sigh, "Maybe..." Twilight Sparkle nodded recalling Freddy Bear's stories and looked at Flare Tiger, who enjoy to eating her pizza and walked up with caution.

Twilight Sparkle gulped, "Excuse me, Ma'am?"

Flare Tiger looked up and smiled, saying, "Ma'am? Ah'm not that's old!"

We heard the gang's laughter as Flare Tiger chuckled, "Now, what's ya want 'ta asked of me?"

Twilight Sparkle gulped, "Who are you? How you know of them?"

Flare Tiger nodded while speaking, "Ah see... Ah'm Flare Tiger and Ah met them due mah age of eleven years old, and Ah brought mah photo book about them. Ah grew up as Ah kept visiting them by time to time."

Flare Tiger pulled out the book that's filled of the pictures, put it on the table and smiled, saying, "There are many memories of them! They're very good!"

The Mane Six and Spike could take a look at the book by through page to page as Twilight Sparkle noticed something, it's Golden Freddy as he was in each picture until a change happened.

Applejack wonders while realizing something, "Wait minute! What's about 'de night guard?"

Flare Tiger snickered as the gang knew it, "The different kind of the guards is useless since they're lazy to watch over."

Freddy Bear nodded while explaining, "We kinda like to scare them off, but we kept our eyes out to find the purple stallion."

They're awed until Marionette appeared, still chased by his pursuers. They're screaming in fear as he looked so pissed off when the gang knew that's face show off. The Marionette deeply growled until the dark pink strike him which he's yelped in pain which it's Pinkamena still in her bed despite being weaken.

Pinkamena sighed, "I hope it's not too late."

Freddy Bear smiled while saying, "Nope, you got it on time."

Flare Tiger giggled, "Hey Pinkamena!"

Pinkamena shocked spoke, "How you.... Oh, right... You always traveling around the dimensions..."

Flare Tiger chuckled, "Eeyup. No worries, you can be able to move while in bed."

Marionette growled as he stands up, "I can't believe it...You!"

Freddy Bear rolled his eyes while saying, "So, what? What's wrong with having a friendship? Pinkamena is one support us, and Flare Tiger's always visiting by time to time, by way, Flare Tiger's half robot."

Rainbow Dash baffled ask, "Is that true?"

Flare Tiger nodded as Marionette scream in fury, but he was grabbed by a familiar golden bear. Flare Tiger smiled as she exclaims, "Golden Freddy! You're online!"

Golden Freddy smiled, saying, "Good to see you again, Sorry you guys, I was detained. So.... What we doing with him?"

"ENOUGH OF THIS," Marionette exclaims, pissed as he got out of Golden Freddy's hold. The villain then flew over and smacks Flare Tiger, sending her into the wall.

"Hey, if yew rather fight, just say so!" Flare Tiger exclaims in irritation.

"You idiots owe me your lives, so pay me back!"

"NO!" A familiar voice exclaims in a familiar Canterlot Royal Voice. Luna appears with Celestia and Cadance nearby, now freed of the spheres. "IT'S THOU WHO SAID BE PAYING FOR WHAT THOU DONE!"

"Sorry it took a while." Azure groans a bit, feeling his hooves. "Those spheres are hard to break with a spell."

"At least we're out. Marionette, you're outnumbered and defeated." Celestia said calmly to the Marionette. "Surrender peacefully..."

Marionette growls madly then roars as one of his hands glow. Golden Heart yelp, "Look out! He's trying something!"

Marionette fires a shot into the air. Suddenly a huge vortex appears. Everypony yelps as it tries to suck them in, they're doing their best to keep their hold onto something nailed down to avoid being sucked in.

"What's going on," Spike demands in shock.

"I created a vortex to who knows where! Whatever is thrown in there is lost forever! Now you idiots, TOSS THEM IN!" Marionette exclaims, firing blasts at the Animatronics. They yelp in fear as the trapped souls prepare to do so. "Equestria is full with corruption and filth that must be gotten rid of, for the true master race to take hold of it! Figure that out while you're gone!"

"I don't think so...Charles Le Damien!" Twilight exclaims sternly. Hearing that, the Marionette seems alarmed to hear that.

"What? I don't know what you're talking about."

"You do know. That's your real name. Azure told me about you, you're a Dark Mystic Pony, an enemy of the Mystic Ponies for years. From what I heard, you were a colt who has the ability to control robots and/or souls as puppets! You were enhanced even in your age! During the war, you broke away from your Herd to attend a party at Fredbear's Family Diner but repelled due to a magic force keeping you from entering."

"Yeah, that's true." Marionette, AKA Charles Le Damien, remarked with a grunt. "Then I was killed."

"Yes! Rough House came and slaughtered you! Freddy couldn't save you because he was programmed to serve the guests! But there's one other ability that no one else knew about: your freakish ability to possess Animatronics. It means you possess a Puppet that no pony knew about!" Twilight exclaims thoughtfully to Marionette. "Right after Rough House killed more ponies in Fredbear's Family Diner, you had them stuffed in the robotics, though they weren't able to possess them, so you used your powers to drive Freddy and his pals mad the first time, causing incidents that closed the restaurant down! Then after Freddy Fazbear's Pizza was born, right after Rough House killed the five foals, you were able to bring them to life...because they were ponies with magical abilities!"

"Yes, but I helped them by getting revenge on those who failed them!"

"No, in your mind, you were only wanting revenge for yourself, but your other goal, your true one, was killing off every pony in Equestria so you can complete Dark Curse's evil dream! You were using the souls as weapons since then, and you were doing so ever since!"

"Golden Freddy, here," Azure said as he hold out a familiar teddy bear, much to Golden Freddy's surprise while the Mystic Pony tosses it over to them.

"And what the hell is that?!" The Marionette demands baffled as Golden Freddy picks the stuffed bear right.

"Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy, Golden Freddy...your families missed you. They all did, no one knew what happened to the foals. They all loved them like true families do."

Golden Freddy looks at the golden bear carefully...then memories of his past enter his mind. He then begins sobbing, saying, "Mommy..."

"Oh, what; What; you missed your mommy?! SHE DOESN'T CARE FOR YOU, DON'T BE A DAMN FOAL!" Marionette exclaims in fury. He then knocks the bear out of Golden Freddy's paws then slashes the doll upon it hitting the floor, much to the shock of everyone.

"Hey! That isn't nice!" Pinkie exclaims in shock and anger.

"Knock them all in!" Marionette demands. To his further anger, the Animatronics hesitate, even Golden Freddy is. "UGH! MUST I DO SO EVERYTHING AROUND HERE?!"

The Marionette fires another shot at the vortex, causing it to suck harder. Everyone is having a hard time but it looks like they will be pulled in.

"You see?! This is what happens when you damn robots begin thinking for yourselves!" Marionette exclaims furiously as he punches Golden Freddy, making him back off in fright. The Animatronics needless to say begins to look angry. "You're all nothing more than stuffed metal junk, left to dust and forgotten!"

Suddenly Freddy roars as he charges in. The Marionette yelps as the robotic bear grabs him. Bonnie, Chica and Foxy join in, grabbing at the Puppet, keeping him still. It's unknown whatever or not the souls are finally rebelling, but one thing's clear: they had enough of that abusive monster.

"No! Stop, let me go, let me go!" Marionette exclaims frantically.

"Sorry, but you broke the rules: no hitting others or fighting!" Bonnie exclaims with a nod.

"So we're going to toss you out." Chica exclaims happily to the villain.

The Marionette looks horrified as he saw that his former pals are about to toss him into the vortex. The Puppet prepares to fight but Foxy quickly pulls out a familiar music box, then stuffs it into the Marionette's puppet. The villain begins slowing down as the smooth music kept him from doing anything else.

"Thanks for coming to Freddy Fazbear's. I will see you next time." Freddy remarks in his robotic voice, then spoke in his normal one. "Toss him!"

The four Animatronics then toss their tormentor right into the vortex. The Marionette screams as he is thrown out, disappearing from sight. Soon the vortex disappears from sight, causing the suckage to stuff before everyone landed onto the floor.

"Ouch." Rainbow groans, feeling his back a bit. "That hurts."

"Celestia, Luna." Twilight said as she came over to her lovers, nuzzling a bit.

"Twilight," Celestia said as she Luna nuzzles her right back.

"Where did Charles go?"

"He went through the vortex of his own making, to...who knows where." Luna said with a sigh. "It's unknown where the Marionette would want up in. It's sad that his insanity and his want of revenge would be his own downfall."

"And now...it's finally over." Flare Tiger said with a giggle to the robots. "Ah knew yew got it in ya."

Freddy and his pals smile a bit. For the first time in their life, it looks like these are finally at peace...

"Oooh, ooh," Pinkie exclaims as she's twitching a bit, much to everyone's notice.

"Oh dear, Pinkie's senses are going off." Rarity said in worry. "It may not be over yet."

Things begin settling down but loud banging is heard much to Freddy and his pal'ss worry along with the gang. Some are puzzled but Freddy says, "I was afraid that it was not like us."

The banging stops slightly as things seem quiet but then a loud crash is heard as the blockage and the smoke clears. They see it................it is Shadow Freddy; it then roars loudly shaking the place, pounding it's chest in pure rage as some of the Mystics and Guards were forming up along with Anger and Bullhound.

"This one is going down." Anger demands sternly.

"Attack," Bullhound orders the soldiers quickly.

They charge at it but Golden Heart, Pinkamena and Freddy say, "DON'T!"

It was too late. In one hit, Shadow Freddy sent all the guards flying as it was a small battle. The Guards were being either near death or beaten down; it shocked the group, even the two Mystics were having it rough as they were launching attacks but it was not even harming it. They were like pebbles and some of the magic was being absorbed...........this creature was inhuman or machine as Shadow Freddy whacks them away in one swing. The group was worried.

"Ok I know how tough Freddy and his group were and Golden Freddy are but this Shadow Freddy is a monster compared to them." Rainbow said, now recognizing Shadow Freddy from what the Mane Six and company figured out already.

"I may know why. Even if I made amends the souls still stay........they know they can't leave while this monster is still around.....................in order for the souls to finally rest in peace, we must stop Shadow Freddy................it might be hard but we went through Seven nights in this place and WE WILL NOT SURRENDER!" Twilight exclaims in determination. The gang must stop Shadow Freddy once and for all.

The group cheers to this along with the Animatronic Pinkamena letting off her cheers and repeated it loudly. Freddy and his group were surprised how brave these ponies are as Freddy gets off the stage and say, "We want to help out. It's about time we do what we were supposed to do and that is our Job to protect the lives from bad beings...................what you need us to do?"

The other three nod as Twilight smiles and asked everypony to huddle in. She gives out the plan (they will use the many tricks they have done that help them make it through all the nights. Shadow Freddy's not seen them like Freddy and his group have but some might work, some not so much due to its might). Golden Freddy remains hidden, not wanting to show himself. He is in thoughts about what has happened with him and what he's done.

The guards and two Mystics were weary as Shadow Freddy lifts up a huge Vending machine reading to end them but then something hits him in the back of the head. It growls and turns, looking to see the Mane Six as Twilight's magic was holding random items. She says, "Hay Shadow Freddy."

Rainbow begins taunting, "You think you’re powerful; well you are nothing but a weak bucket of bolts, you tin can piece of Scrap metal!"

"Yew wants something 'ta attack? Come and get us unless yer chicken." Applejack taunts as well at Shadow Freddy.

That makes Shadow Freddy Roar as it tosses the Vending Machine. It roars loudly, pounding its chest as it then heads to the ponies as they Scatter. The battle begins.

At this time, Shadow Freddy was approaching the area in question to begin the finally attack on killing its TRUE targets. With nowhere left for the gang to escape, it was coming to kill them all, including Twilight. But then a few surprises appeared that seem to have help in slowing it down. It heard voices to break down the doors, only to find recordings, and bombs that blew up when triggered, but they hardly affected Shadow Freddy. While Shadow Freddy was moving across the hall, unexpected obstacles of bananas and marbles along with sticky cheese goop made it hard for the super killer bot to be mobile without slipping, crashing, and being delayed by such sticky cheese. Then as the monster machine came across a hallway, traps from hidden battering rams, the walls trying to close in, they tried to keep Shadow Freddy at bay while helping to slowly damage him. This beast was taking some punishment to keep going while showing that it was far tougher than Freddy & his crew, even Golden Freddy.

"Okay everypony, time to spring the Final Trap! I call it 'The Double Insurance, Extra Duty, When All Else Fails, Special Surprise Smasher from The Sky' trap!" Rainbow Dash issued forth in showing a strange remote in her hooves and what it could do to spring the final trap to end Shadow Freddy.

"How in Sam's Hill did ye name it like dat?" Applejack raised an eyebrow in asking this question.

"Cause that's what's it's called. Don't blame me; the guys at the trap department were murder on selling such a highly expensive object." Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes in stating that this was named after someone else's idea, along with the price.

"But with a name like that, it's bound to do something and sounds super-important to really get the job done." Pinkie Pie smiled off to say this in thinking they have nothing to fear.

"Well, it does sound interesting." Fluttershy meekly spoke in thinking the idea did have merits after all.

"Rainbow, how expensive are we talking about?" Twilight raised an eyebrow in asking this question.

"Ah-hah, about....a kingdom's ransom; Namely, Celestia's treasure room," Rainbow Dash chuckled sheepishly in stating the price, and the reaction it cause was big.

"WHAT!" Twilight yelled out in having heard this, this last trap sounds too pricey.

"Hey, told you those guys were murder on the price. Have Celestia deal with them after we win." Rainbow Dash protest to say this to calm her friend.

"Get ready...cause here he comes!" Spike warns the others in seeing their biggest concern is upon them.

Just as Spike said, Shadow Freddy was finally within the area, and was now stomping it's heavy feet to them. It let off a monstrous roar, as it was wrecking anything in sight. Everyone seems scared in feeling that if they are caught, it's over.

"Oh for Celestia's sake & Luna's & Cadence's too....please let this work." Twilight pry out loud in not wanting this to fail them, especially after blowing a huge kingdom's budget.

Rainbow Dash presses a button that sent an electrical ray up towards the sky. And then suddenly, Pinkie Pie was yelping in suddenly feeling something off.

"Uh oh; we're in a building! So if it's coming from the sky...." Pinkie Pie's Pinkie Sense detected where the trap would come from.

"Oops! Miscalculated that! SCATTER!" Rainbow Dash yelps to say this before yelling that they have to get out of the way.

Soon the Mane Six & Spike rushed out of the way. Shadow Freddy watch everyone leave, but it's mechanical sensors detected something coming from above to leap backwards. "POOOOWWCRRRUVHHMMM...." Then something smashed through the roof of the restaurant, a giant size mallet device that smashed so hard to crack into the floors. "Crack-crack-crackvhmm...."Suddenly from the impact, it was causing an earth-shattering quake as it was cracking the ground beneath and causing the support structures of the roof to shake, and Shadow Freddy was in the middle of it.

"GROOOUURRAARRRUGHHHH," Shadow Freddy lets off a roaring cry from trying to move, but much of the ceiling was collapsing all over him, and the killer machine soon plunge into a deep hole that appeared from the ground itself. "Bamgruvhmmm...." Soon the killer bot fell into the deep hole while being buried over tons and tons of building structure. Soon when the shaking was over, everyone managed to take a peak in having seen it, they managed to actually defeat Shadow Freddy, and trap him so deep below and buried under so much rubble, it appears the heroes have won...

the whole group was worn out but standing as they look at the rubble that buried Shadow Freddy as they recover.

"Did we get him?" Rainbow asks anxiously, wondering if it's over now.

Golden Heart looks one, speaking, "I am not sure but after all we done, I am certain he is beaten."

The others nod but notice the rubble moving as they worry. Freddy gulped, "Oh no."

"Not good." Pinkamena said weakly. Looks like Shadow Freddy isn't down yet!

Animatronic Pinkamena boomed out, "Really bad BAD!"

After the group worries but is ready, Shadow Freddy burst out of the rubble as it is sent flying, nearly getting some of the group. The monster roars, pounding it's chest as the group readies.

"We need to stop him!" Twilight exclaims in alarm to everyone. Shadow Freddy is going all out of control, he has to be stopped! "GIVE HIM ALL WE GOT!"

Everyone all nod as they unleash their attacks. Freddy, Chic,a Bonnie and Foxy toss huge rubble at him but it then leans it's head back and Shadow Freddy then lets out a loud ear piercing roar sending a shock wave that Knocks back every attack. It shatters glass shaking the place and the group are bracing, covering their ears as some are send flying to the stage. Shadow Freddy stops as a few of the group were dazed. They're ready to attack but it charges and was bashing though everyone sending them one by one onto the stage. Twilight ,the Princesses, Golden Heart, Pinkamena, Freddy, Foxy, Chica and Bonnie recover but it grabs the same Vending Machine and tosses it at the Animatronics. The Animatronic Pinkamena moves in front of them as she and the four brace. It impacts them as they skid but the robots were able to stop it but had to keep it held along with Pinkamena who, despite still hurt, slips out and gets onto the stage, holding the top part, keeping it still.

"We have to hold this or our friends will be crushed." Pinkamena said, cringing from holding the vending machine and from being in pain.

The four grunt but nod to that as they keep it held. This left the five living ones standing as they launch their strongest magic attacks at Shadow Freddy. The attack impacts but the monster absorbs it as it roars, pounding its chest.

"Remind me to ask Starker to never decide to build any more Animatronic that can absorb magic." Golden Heart remarks with a groan.

"Maybe I will ask him who is Shadow Freddy. Maybe he designed this to be like a Guardian." Twilight said thoughtfully. Perhaps that's the case with Shadow Freddy here!

"What are you meaning young Princess?"

"I am saying is that during the war, this place would've been attacked by the Dark Mystics and nothing, not even the Animatronics, could do anything about it. But what if Starker thought of making one something to run all night and Day and able to run on any power source, something unbreakable and that's where Shadow Freddy was made."

Shadow Freddy roars and slowly walks to them as the others listen. Golden Freddy remained hidden, watching

"Well even so. why is it not doing it but instead it is attacking anypony?" Cadance ask in concern. Shadow Freddy is attacking ponies instead of doing what the thing was programmed to do!

"I am only giving a theory but what if its program was messed up during all that has happened? Maybe that caused it to go out of control..............maybe when the Presence of the puppet caused it to happen?" Twilight spoke, giving out her theory as to what could've happened that drove the Shadow Freddy mad. "What if he tried to control it but it backfired and caused it to go berserk and raged until it was shut down...........but I think they thought it like a glitch and thinking that keeping it offline would fix things."

"But it never did.........." Golden Heart said seriously. The Marionette's tampering of the Shadow Freddy was his undoing! Twilight nods as it roars, pounding it's chest.

"There might be a way we can stop it without ending its life."

"What you thinking?" Luna asks Twilight, hoping that she may have an idea.

"What's your plan?" Celestia ask Twilight in the same emotion. Her love must have an idea on what to do!

"I am saying if somepony can keep it busy, one of us might be able to pry the hatch to the controls and reboot its mainframe." Twilight said thoughtfully. That plan could work...if someone could get close to Shadow Freddy to make the idea work!

"But how we can't get close enough.................and I think it's right in front of us right now." Golden Heart said in worry and fear. They turn and see him right in front of them. Golden Heart says, "We should of back up."

The group cast a barrier to block the attack as it then punches. Shadow Freddy shatters the shield and sends them back hard and onto the wall one by one. Celestia skids near the wall but recovers but her hooves buckle. Golden Freddy watched and sparks feeling rage as Shadow Freddy slowly breaks the gap between them and it. Celestia stands but limps as she falls on her side drained and worn out. But the Alicorn she lifts her head and sees Shadow Freddy right at them.

Celestia says, "........I will not let you harm them. I lost my son in this place but I will not let you kill anypony as long as we breathe. We will never lose hope and we will help the souls and my son be freed from this Nightmare even if i must die in order to stop you."

That makes everyone nod to this readying to fight. Pinkamena and the fiver Animatronics push the Vending Machine off away from the group. They recover and many stand, readying to keep fighting as it stares and a loud spark comes from its mouth. Shadow Freddy says firm and bold surprising everyone.............its first words in ever as if his voice box was fixed after being buried, "So..........be it.........................All EVIL DIES NOW!"

it raises its arms and is ready to crush Celestia but then a loud screech is heard as something impacts Shadow Freddy right in the head. Celestia sees who it was as Shadow Freddy tumbles and falls onto his back. Something was in front of them: it was Golden Freddy. It growl and says in rage, "DO NOT..................HURT MY MOMMY!"

A few of the heroes re surprised by what he just said. Celestia stares as tears form. Golden Freddy slowly turns and walks to her. He goes onto his knees and looks at Celestia and tilts its head and slowly moves his arm, gently places his hand on her face as Celestia slowly reaches her right hoof on his arm: her son Robin is still in there.

"Robin.............I am sorry for everything. I should’ve not left you out of my sight." Celestia said in sadness and regret. If she had kept a closer eye on her foal, Robin wouldn't have been killed by Rough House on that day years ago

Golden Freddy/Robin spoke sadly and in regret, "I wander off when I should of waited but I.........was so bored.........I am the one who's...........sorry..................I'm sorry that I wonder off. I am so very sorry................................" Celestia only could listen as she stares. He say, "Am i in trouble mommy?"

"............no...............you’re not..........I am just happy to know I get to see your Eyes and your sweet little smile."

Celestia pulls her son in a hug as Golden Freddy/Robin could only do is hug back. Everyone watched, some were tearing up by this reunion but the princess notices that Shadow Freddy was slowly getting up. Golden Freddy/Robin turns and breaks the hug as he stands ready while saying, "So Twilight, you still need somepony to distract this hunk of scrap metal?"

Twilight slowly nod, surprised that she is actually getting help by the soul of her lover Celestia's son who possessed the same outfit that Rough House once used. The Alicorn answers, "Um yes if we can get it on its knees or on its belly, somepony else could get to its hatch and open it and then fix the program."

Golden Freddy then smiles and pulls out some hooks on strings as he spins them around and says, "Well then let’s get this party going!" Shadow Freddy roars, pounding it's chest and rushes. Golden Freddy lets off a screech and charges swinging the hooks as he slides under him and his hooks hook onto it's feet. Golden Freddy gets up and pulls making Shadow Freddy trip and fall onto his belly but slowly gets back up and whacks away the coming pony. Golden Freddy/Robin says, "Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy! Give me a paw and let’s help the ponies."

The former villains cheer as they move in. Golden Freddy spins his hooks and throws that at Shadow Freddy as it hooks its hands. He struggles as Golden Freddy leaps over Shadow Freddy and Foxy swings from his rope and gets behind it and pushes him.

"It's time for ye to be walking the plank." Foxy exclaims in determination.

Chica and Bonnie leap onto to its shoulders and use their weight to bring him down. Golden Freddy pulls as Shadow Freddy roars, feeling the weight. Freddy comes and helps Golden Freddy pull and then he falls onto its knees. Bonnie and Chica hold their ground keeping him still as it struggles and Freddy charges quickly and helps Bonnie and Chica hold him down. Foxy then climbs up and Freddy gets behind Shadow Freddy. Foxy leaps and spin kicks Shadow Freddy as it knocks him way onto its knee's and helps Bonnie and Chica hold him.

The ponies and group watch surprised as Golden Freddy says, "Ok, he's down but not sure for how long so hurry up Twilight!"

Twilight nods and gallops as she is avoiding Shadow Freddy's bite. The Alicorn gets behind and gets onto Freddy's shoulders and carefully opens the hatch and studies the controls and device, reading it quickly.

"Ok, I think I got it............but there's a catch...........once the reboot starts it will take around 5 minutes for it to take full effect." Twilight explains seriously. Once the reboot begins, it will take 5 minutes and who knows how long Shadow Freddy will stay down?

"You and your friends survived longer then that I am sure we can handle 5 minutes so just get it started...............we can't keep him held for long!" Freddy exclaims to Twilight quickly.

Animatronic Pinkamena lands next to Twilight, speaking, "I will help HELP...............you need scan of a working no foal soul Animatronic to begin the first part."

Animatronic Pinkamena then places it's hoof on a scanner as it scans. A voice says, "Scan complete. Animatronic codes checked. System's ready; worker must show his or her scan to begin." Twilight looks, seeing a scanner and places her hoof on it as it scans. Shadow Freddy roars, struggling as she holds on. The Animatronic Pinkamena is sent flying as she skids lightly sparking but giggles, enjoying the ride. The voice says, "Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship, worker on the Night Shift of Freddy's Pizza restaurant. Scan's complete. Please push button to begin rebooting systems."

Twilight sees a button glowing and she presses it. After a bit, a voice says, "System's complete; Beginning rebooting systems and restoring main programs in five minutes."

The countdown begins as she smiles but then Shadow Freddy roars as it pulls itself up and shakes hard. The monster knocks Twilight off along with Bonnie and Chica. Freddy tumbles losing his grip on it as it then pulls knocking one hook off it's right arm and grabs Foxy, throwing him at the others. Golden Freddy struggles and keeps hold on the remaining hook as Shadow Freddy begins pulling bringing him closer. The lights go off and he looks to see Golden Freddy's gone.

Shadow Freddy notice that he was wrapped in the string of the hook as Golden Freddy appears in front of him and says, "It's me." Shadow Freddy struggles as it roars loudly. Golden Freddy walks off as 3 Minutes and walks to Celestia, saying, "Those strings are as thicker than Dragon Proof Chains so no worries."

Twilight is worried and says, "But Shadow Freddy is not like the Animatronics; he was built to be stronger.......................what if...........oh no..."

That makes them worried as Golden Freddy was worried as well. They notice Shadow Freddy struggling as the strings strain trying to hold him as they snap. He roars loudly, pounding his chest and as there is a few more second around 10. It charges as he pulls his right arm back, he was aiming at Celestia and everyone was worn out from all this; by the time it's complete, Celestia will be killed.

Golden Freddy moves to her and picks her up looking at her mother one last time (if it is) and then tosses her to the group. He turns and guards as the punch impacts as a loud screech is heard. Celestia watches as Golden Freddy crashes into a wall, limps as he sparks.

"ROBIN!" Celestia exclaims in horror. Her son is risky being killed...AGAIN!

Shadow Freddy twitches and sparks as he roars loudly pounding it's chest. But then a voice says, "Countdown completed; beginning shut down of all systems and restoring all mainframes and programs."

Shadow Freddy's roars die down as it goes limp. The creature goes onto its knees and ends up in a sitting stance as its eyes close. Shadow Freddy shuts down as all watched...........it was finally over.

"Is it over?" Spike asks nervously.

"It's shut down." Schemetrick said as he inspects the robot. "Hopefully this will bring it back to normal."

"Well, it's over." Rainbow said with a sigh. Suddenly ringing noises are heard as cheers are heard. "And our shift is finally over."

"Oh no," Fluttershy whimpers a bit. Everyone saw Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy falling, collapsing to the floor. "What's wrong?"

"With the Marionette gone, his power no longer has any hold on them...but it appears that they are dead...again." Luna said seriously.

Everyone looks worried and sad, especially when Celestia goes over and held Golden Freddy AKA Robin. The nightmare's over, but it appears that the souls are lost for good this time.

Epilogue: Something's Old, Something Restored

Things settle but they hear a sound and look. Everyone see Shadow Freddy sparking as it slowly stands. The thing's eyes glow. They were worried but some who notices is seeing something different. Shadow Freddy lets out a roar yawn as it looks at everypony and is slightly puzzled but a small buzzing sound is heard as it was Scanning.

After a while it stops and then waves saying, "Hello folks..............welcome to Freddy's Pizza restaurant. My name is Shadow Freddy; don't let my looks scare you..........I am very kind and protective to all good boys and girls and grownups......................but you best behave and follow the rules or I will have to put you in time out."

Many watch as Pinkamena says, "Guess it has returned to it's normal program but wonder if it acts not really robotic." Shadow Freddy looks around and it scratches it's head.

"Um............................what in all Equestria happen.............is there an attack?"

"Um no...........but any chance you can help fix the place up?" Twilight ask Shadow Freddy hopefully. "Someponys will be coming here soon."

Shadow Freddy nods, speaking, "No worries Twilight Sparkle. We will have this place restored before sunrise."

Shadow Freddy walks and was knocking some rubble away as it was lifting falling support Beams. The former threat gets a blow torch as it begins repairing as the group are surprised.

"Wow, guess it was also designed to fix the place and also..............what he is able in absorbing magic and such like that................might of inspired Pinkamena from the main Equestria with her project of hers.................rather not reveal." Pinkamena said thoughtfully. She giggles making everyone even Shadow Freddy puzzled but he gets back to work. "Well come on everypony, we need to get this place all straighten up."

They nod and all pitch in to help.

---------------------

Things are finally back to normal in the world of Equestria. The Marionette is gone and the Animatronics with the souls inside them are finally at peace...though it appears that the ones trapped inside the robots, AKA the five missing foals especially Celestia's son, are gone for good.

As the robots lay to rest at the medical room, everyone met up with Starker and the owner...who doesn't look pleased.

"Look at my restaurant! Look at my bots!" The owner known as Big Whinny exclaims angrily. "No one would come back after this."

"Be lucky you and everypony else is still alive." Twilight said to Big Whiny sternly. The manager growls angrily as he hands out pink slips, "What's this?"

"Wait, I know these, they're termination slips!" Pinkie gasps as she reads her pink slip.

"'tampering with the animatronics," "general unprofessionalism," and "odor'?" Rainbow asks in disbelief at her slip. "First off, we didn't mess with those guys, the lightning did."

"Also what 'de hay about 'de unprofessionalism horse crap,” Applejack ask in disbelief. "How else were we supposed 'ta ask?"

"And odor?! Sir, it was the robots who smell, not us." Rarity said sternly.

"I don't care! You were all supposed to keep an eye on them! You're all fired!" Big Whinny remarks to the Mane Six and Spike sternly.

"Big Whiny; you can't fire them." Starker said to his owner with an annoyed sigh. "They don't even work for us! They volunteer, remember?"

"WELL THEN YOU'RE FIRED!"

"No, you are." Celestia said sternly, startling Big Whinny. "Yes, it is true that it was Rough House was killed the foals...and it was the Marionette who drove them crazy...but you should've took measures to fix the robots up. The lack of concern for your restaurant is indeed serious."

"Oh come bucking on! I didn't even know why the Animatronics went out of control in the first place." Big Whiny protested, upset that he is sharing part of the blame for the events that happened.

"Still, you clean up the remains and file a "missing persons" report rather than fix the animatronics. Everything that happens is the unspooling consequences of you and your executives cutting costs and skating by on the least possible effort. As such, my sister and I are taking control of your company."

"And we decree that Freddy's will be turned over to Starker." Luna declares. Everypony looks surprised, Big Whinny looks stunned while Starker looks amazed. "He cares for the Animatronics like his own family, therefore we shall give him the funding needed to start the place over."

"Just please...don't make my aunts regret their decision." Cadance said to Starker calmly, knowing that he will do his best to get the company back on its hooves.

Starker looks touched and flattered. He bows down while saying, "I will, your majesties, I will."

Big Whinny stutters a bit. He has been removed from his position...and by the princesses. The unicorn groans, cursing as he leaves the restaurant, most likely for good!

"Good riddance to him." Rarity said dryly and amused.

Celestia of course sighs in sadness at the corpse of Robin. The guards went to work on opening Golden Freddy up and the bots off, removing a lot of corpses inside. Flare Tiger did realized something wrong after her dear friend went crazy. She knew him due to her foal hood when she's eleven years old, a young filly until everything's revealed due to happened. Marionette was anger at her for a few reasons that's it thought that Flare Tiger left it behind. Flare Tiger told the truth that she control the time, which make her immortal and unable to change it unless there's someone who will fixed it. Also, Flare Tiger knew Freddy Bear and his gang due to their birth, not until she didn't noticed something very wrong since the missing foals and the gang is connected. Flare Tiger decided to check to see what's inside, not like x-ray but used an ability to see spirit as she could see multiply of the souls in each of them, even Golden Freddy.

Marionette had only one soul but the gang had a multiply of them because of they were stuffed into one another.

Azure put an arm around Celestia, saying gently, "Celestia, I'm sorry for the losses. I really am."

Celestia sobs a bit, saying in guilt and sadness, "I should have been there! I should have! Why couldn't I protect my own son! How couldn't I! How couldn't! I couldn't stop Iris from leaving before she died! And now I couldn't save my son's soul! I will never see him again!"

Azure hugged Celestia closed to him. He spoke, "Sh... It's okay. It's okay. I know it hurt but... Rather than to force him to stay in the stuffed animal, he should be free... Free from his sufferings and torments. That's the most important thing as a parent...To help a child to be freed from his torment. It's what you wanted..."

Celestia sniffed. She nods while saying, "You're right... He should be free. He suffered too much... I just wish I could spent some time with him. One last time..."

Twilight wants to help one of her new filly friends. She turns to Schemetrick, speaking, "Schemetrick, isn't there anything you can do? You're a Mystic Pony."

"Yeah! You're a God Pony! You can do anything!" Rainbow exclaims in agreement.

"Yeah, sure; True," The rest of the Mane Six, Shining Armor, Cadance and even Luna said at once and in agreement. The Mystic Ponies must know of a way to save the five foals, right?

Schemetrick however shakes his head at this. He explains, "It's not that simple. We maybe gods and immortals, but we have no rights to bring the life from death. Once you died, they must live in peace than to live in suffering."

"Oh come on!" Rainbow exclaims in shock and anger.

"Can't you somehow make an exception?" Pinkie asks in worry.

"Right; Come on, there must be another way!" Spike exclaims in agreement.

"There must be a way!" Twilight exclaims in regret. It's her fault that she didn't alerted anypony to what happened before.

Some of the ponies kept protesting and begging. Having enough, Anger snaps: Face reality, kids! This is not a fairy tale! We lost so many soldiers and innocents in the war! They have the reason to died for! These kids... need peace! They need rest! They've done enough to be used and tortured by that bloody puppet! We can't force them to come back. What's done is done."

Bullhound sighed, "Anger's right. It's time for them to rest. They're free from Marionette's control. We should be grateful to that."

Meanwhile, after everyone has left the medical room with five cloth sheets over the bodies of the foals removed from the five animatronics, no one was left to notice something a mist was going on. For glowing in a silver light, something began to appear from beyond the wall to phases through like…a ghost? No, from its basic appearance, it seems more like…a spirit? It’s shown to be a tall, muscular Alicorn stallion with gray-white coat color, tan gray-white & white mix colors for his puff top, flat down mane & long tail, pointed two-top ears, and has gray violet/blue eyes. He has dark brown/gray marks on his hooves, his mouth, a mark on his forehead & spots over his nose area. His body does give off a glow, as if appearing as a luminous pony. He seems calm, peaceful, unaffected of being emotional in rage, anger, sadness, or show much of being a bit joyful in where he stood. His behavior is like that of a sage, or like a monk, being one all around him. He looks from the sheet bodies to Freddy’s crew before…making a move.

“Arrroouughhhaaahh….” Then he lets off a strange mastic calling, as his presence seem to affect the deactivated robots.

Then without warning, Freddy, Foxy, Bonnie, Chica, and even Golden Freddy seem to glow in a strange white light. Then something was focus to the center, and soon phase them out to show…FIVE glowing blue spirits of the missing foals. In mere moments, they began to slowly wake up to notice their…different surroundings and of their own state of condition.

“Where…are we? What….happened…to us?” The colt spirit of Robin, Celestia’s child asked in seeing he was not Golden Freddy no more, his mind was working as it should.

“You have been freed, of your curse…young spirits.” The five foal spirits turn to see a stranger in their spot, as he seem to have surprised them much.

“Who…who are you?” A colt spirit from Bonnie asked in not knowing who this guy was.

“Are you with the puppet?” Another colt spirit from Freddy asked in being cautious.

“Remain calm…I am a friend, a real friend, here to help.” The silver pony spoke with his voice being heard within the foals' minds.

“What are you gonna do with us?” A filly spirit from Chica asked in feeling nervous about now.

“I am here to set amends, you…who have endured so much…are now free of your shackles.” The silver pony exclaimed to explain that those that were prisoners are now free from the Marionette. “I have come, to help heal you.” He spoke off in making this other claim of his being here.

The five foals were very lost in trying to figure out who this guy was. He doesn't seem to speak with words from the mouth, but rather, he speaks using his mind to send messages to talk to them of what he has to say. He was acting like a priest, a seeker that from what they know goes where those that need his aid to heal those that are troubled.

“What do you mean, heal us…we’re already dead?” Robin’s spirit asked off in being lost by this subject.

“Listen closely, I…am Mangani, I can help heal the sick, the injured….and bring back those long since dead.” The revealed himself of who he is, and that he can help bring those here back to life again.

“You mean…we’re not going to the great beyond?” Robin’s spirit slowly was asking in feeling like they are not going to the afterlife after all.

“It is not your time….come; I shall give back what you lose…” Mangani shook his head while stating it was too soon for the young foals, and wish to proceed in giving them life again.

Many of the foal spirits felt almost overwhelm to hear this; they can get their lives back before Roughhouse killed them. As many were flatting to accept this, one seems to be…uncertain.

“Hey, what’s wrong?” One colt spirit asked in seeing one of them was not going along to be getting a life again.

“I’m not sure…I wanna be revived. Not after…what I did to…her…” The colt spirit that came from Foxy spoke in not wanting to be brought to life again; not from what he..as Foxy did to someone.

“But it wasn’t your fault.” Another colt spirit stated that it wasn’t this guy’s fault.

“You couldn’t help it.” The filly spirit stated in knowing this guy wasn’t bad, he was forced into doing it.

“But…she’s brain-damaged, her life is now miserable because…of what I did! This is…my punishment…for atoning her suffering,” The colt spirit that felt guilty about ‘the Bite’ incident, and felt like he shouldn’t get another chance at life if he made someone suffer for it all their life.

“You not be burden with such things, child.” Mangani spoke off to calmly ease the weary soul of this child. “I have already tended to her…” He issued forth that he’s taken care of the matter already.

“Hugh?” The guilty spirit colt and the others responded confuse, what did this guy mean he ‘tended’ to the filly that had the Bite.

“I visited her place when I sense the evil was gone and helped heal that which brought…a burden to her family, and to herself.” As Mangani’s voice spoke, the victim of the Bite had the remains of her missing part of the back of her head recovered. And as the sister was about to treat her sleeping sister, she rose up, and for the first time…her eyes were lit with more life then she has had in a very long time.

“Sister….I….remember; I remember…everything. I’m…I’m me again.” Aurora Star slowly spoke to address her sister in having regained what she lost.

“Hugh?” Then Sapphire Locket turn around to gasp in checking the Bite mark, the scar of where it was was gone; she went leap to show tears…it was a miracle. Aurora Star, the little filly that couldn't remember her own sister when she came in to help...was back.

The foal spirits that heard what Mangani said were also amazed, he helped the filly that was apart of the incident Bite to have a normal life again.

“Come, it is time….you need not fear….a second chance.” Mangani spoke off to offer those here sanctum and to give them the blessing to live again.

“Come on, let’s do this….we all wanna see our families again, right?” Robin’s spirit spoke in trying to get everyone excited for this.

“Yeah,” Three of the foals cheered in wanting to go along with this, as this was no evil lie, but a good pony wanting to help them.

“Um….yeah, me too,” The colt spirit that was guilty felt a little more comfy as he’ll give it another shot at being alive and hope for the best when the time comes.

“Then let me heal you, at long last.” Mangani declared off in wanting to heal those that have long since needed this.

Soon the foal spirits approached their rotted and decay bodies that were covered in sheets to block off the sight of rotted flesh and the smell. And soon, Mangani began to glow white while waving out his hooves towards the bodies and the spirits, letting a calm and green aura in slowly doing something.

“Ooouaaarrrwwwuuughhh,” Then with another majesties wail sound, something was seen…the rotted flesh of a hoof seen off the sheet was looking…like it’s flesh was rejuvenating and it’s open cuts and seen bones were being covered up. The five spirit foals suddenly felt themselves drift down into the bodies under the sheets; And then in mere moments, from the sheets showed two glowing eyes behind the covers, as if…something was looking.

------------------------

At this time, the strange noise and glowing white light attracted the presence of the Royal Sisters, the Mane Six, Spike, Golden Heart, Pinkamena, Shining Armor & Cadence. That light died down, but it came from the medical bay area.

“What’s going on?” Rainbow Dash question doff in seeing something happened all of a sudden.

“It’s coming from the medical bay.” Rarity stated in knowing where the originated from.

“Don’t tell me dat Marionette is at it again!” Applejack narrows her eyes i thinking the evil puppet was at his usual tricks.

“We have to check it out.” Twilight issued to her friends in what they must do.

But suddenly, as everyone rush to make a turn around the corner…the door to the room was opened. They all got ready to expect the worse, like Freddy & his crew coming out to attack them, however…what came out was…more shocking than imagined.

“Oh my goodness….” Fluttershy gasped in seeing what was seen here.

“Holy Pizza Deals on Fridays!” Pinkie Pie gasped in having seen this as a shocker.

“Is that…?” Spike slowly was about to say until…

“Son…” Celestia cuts in to say the words that came to her.

What was seen coming out of the door was not a killer robotic, but of a young foal, a colt actually. And it was none other than Robin, but his body that was supposed to have been rotund and smelly and miss some guts and expose bones, they were not there; it’s as if, he was never dead to begin with. Everyone was silent in seeing this, not making any moves, but Celestia…seem to feel almost ready to burst, and soon Robin noticed his mother nearby with the others.

“Mom,” Robin called out to seeing his mother with both puzzled and surprise expressions.

“ROBIN!” Then Celestia rush over to hug the child who happily was embraced by her hooves and her wings. “You’re alive?” She smiled for joy, her child was alive again.

“It’s not just him, LOOK!” Golden Heart pointed to seeing who else was coming out of the room for everyone to see; the other four foals.

“Holy Cupcakes; All of the missing foals are alive again!” Pinkamena gasped off i seeing what was going on here, the dead foals are alive again.

“It’s a miracle. Ah-hah….they’re not illusions, they’re real!” Shining Armor stated while laughing in pure joy of this news.

“Oh Shiny, their folks can rejoice in seeing their children again!” Cadence happily hug her love in seeing this.

“But, how was this possible? We saw them, how are they…” Twilight was flabbergasted in not knowing how this all came to be.

“It was that silver glowing pony spirit who helped us!” Robin smiled off to say in stating how they were helped to be revived again.

“Silver glowing pony….do you mean…the Spirit Pony; Mangani, was it him, the Silver Pony Healer was here?” Luna suddenly based in knowing just what sorta pony came to help the five decease souls; the one who has the greatest healing abilities.

“Yeah, he helped us and helped that filly who got the Bite too.” Robin smiled off to say which surprised everyone even more that another miracle had occurred.

“It’s a true blessing of a miracle, I couldn’t ask for anything more.” Celestia smiled forth in being so happy, her child is no longer dead; those that also suffered are brought back to life.

“I think I know what we need to do, we have to show Azure Phoenix and the others this while we make plans to get these missing kids back home.” Shiny suggested this as what they do next here help get every one of the missing foals back to where they belong.

Everyone was in agreement as they smiled and nodded, and turns to leave the scene. While not knowing that Mangani had also magically vanished like a spirit in the room where the animatronics were…only now they were cleaner, not so broken, and best of all, don’t smell like rotten flesh and blood stains. It was somehow to help even some robotic shells that house the foal spirits, and now they too…are cleanse of what was making them scary and evil.

------------------------

The Mystic Ponies looks bewildered and shock to find out that the five foals are back to life, thanks to Mangani. The other corpses that were stuffed inside the robots are still dead, especially since the remains had since rotted away for any hope of recovery. At least some lives are back...though the five foals got a lot of catching up to do.

The families of the missing foals had been alerted. Robin and the ones involved are waiting for their families to come...well, just the other four. Robin is back with his own family.

At the Canterlot Castle as Twilight Sparkle and her gang met up with Azure Phoenix, the sun rose up which cause them to be shocked.

Twilight Sparkle wonders as she ask, "But who rise the sun?"

Unknown spoke, "Ah did."

They looked around and found a familiar largest Alicorn walked into the room as it's Flare Tiger. She walked up to them and bow to them while saying, "Ah came in and sense something wrong, and mah dear friends filled me in of what's happened. Ah wish to join in and Ah knew of it's history."

Azure Phoenix spoke, "No, You not go there! Well, before today anyway!"

Twilight Sparkle nodded in agreement, speaking, "He's right, and I am very curious, why you want to go there?"

Flare Tiger looked at the window with sadness and answers, "Ah used 'ta be friends with them from a long time ago. Ah want to surprised them for a reason."

Pinkie Pie gasped, "Long friendship forever? But there are foals' souls inside machines..."

Flare Tiger chuckled, "Well, there is more, there is a story of five famous actresses who loved make anypony happy for reasons. But in the end, they're dried and didn't want 'ta leave until the owner of the machines came in."

Twilight Sparkle gasped, "So they can be immortal by moving their souls into the machines! But what cause the change to happen?"

Flare Tiger answers, "Blackout. That's another reason Ah'm here for, to fix this problem that's 'de owner of the machines could not."

Applejack nodded, "Then could ya point out which machines that ya spoke o'?"

Flare Tiger grinned as she answers, "Freddy Bear, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy, and Golden Freddy. They're very much a treasure to me."

Fluttershy wonder as she ask, "I was wondering, is there old names behind them?"

Flare Tiger chuckled, "Eenope; that is their real name."

Twilight Sparkle was deep think then decided, "Well, We glad to take you too when the party starts."

Azure Phoenix gasped in groan and annoyance, "I don't get you..."

Twilight Sparkle walked up to Flare Tiger then kissed her on lip, which cause everyone else to be a bit freak out until Flare Tiger kiss back. Once the kiss's over, Twilight Sparkle is left shocked and curious.

Twilight Sparkle asked, "You don't mind?"

Flare Tiger smiled as she said, "Ah'm Bi like ya, Ah did told mah mate and he's griningd like goofy and told me that's he don't care as long Ah'm okay or happy with it, then he's okay with it."

They're baffled as Pinkie Pie asked, "So... You can rise and lower the Sun?"

Flare Tiger chuckled, "Eeyup, and the Moon and the stars."

They nodded and talked about future plans until the time about come up. Flare Tiger lower the sun then rise the moon and the stars up.

Twilight looks at the five missing foals, sighing a bit. There's one thing she wants to do....nor, she MUST do.

"Listen, Robin, kids..." Twilight said as she came on over. "I'm sorry...I should've told ponies about where your remains were...or what happened...but I didn't know what happened to your bodies and..."

Robin and the foals surprised Twilight by hugging her. Once they're done, the colt who used to possess Freddy said, "Awww, that's okay! We forgive you."

"Right, it's Rough House who shouldn't be forgiven." The filly who possessed Chica remarks with a shrug. "He's a jerk."

"Aye," The colt whom possessed Foxy remarked with a grunt. "I'm wondering if your friends would forgive us."

"Oh, I'm sure they would." Twilight remarks with a light chuckle. "Some may have bitter feelings, but you get the idea."

"Say, Aunt Luna said how she and mom are attracted to you." Robin said with a thoughtful look, making Twilight blush. "Does this mean you will be my new daddy and uncle?"

"I'm not ready to settle down, Robin...but when I make my choice, I will let you know."

"Weird." The colt who possessed Bonnie said puzzled. He hasn't heard of such a thing.

Twilight nods as she trots off with a determined look. There is one other thing she must do as well...

-----------

The dungeon is scary, compared to what Freddy's used to be where the lowest of the prisoners are held for their crimes against Equestria and everywhere else. Twilight was led by a guard to a certain cell. The Royal Guard opens the door, grunting, "Be careful."

Twilight nods as she came into the cell and looks at the prisoner. There he is, a familiar scarred purple unicorn stallion whose was chained up and wearing a collar to keep his magic in check. Rough House, the same murderer who took the five foals' lives in the first place.

"Well, well. I was wondering when I'll get some visitors." Rough House remarks with a sinister sneer to the glaring Twilight, "The new princess."

"Rough House...I know what you did, I was there when you killed those five foals." Twilight said sternly to the killer.

"Oh, so you admit it? I thought there was some pony watching. Ha ha ha! What a joke that the new princess would..."

"Stuff it, Rough House. You separated the foals from their families, traumatized the princess you saw before you, and allow a monster whom you killed years ago to almost wipe out all of Equestria. As such, that makes you indirectly responsible for everything that happened since your murder of Charles Le Damien outside of Fredbear's Family Diner."

"At least that makes be a celebrity around here." Rough House remarks with a cruel grin at the princess's chagrin, "So what? Want to kill me in revelation?"

"No. The five foals are back to life. And killing you won't make things better." Twilight said to Rough House with a devilish grin. "In fact, I talked with Princess Celestia and she decided to have your sentence changed...to community service. And oh, I think I know the perfect place for you."

Rough House's eyes widen in horror as she move aside. The mare reveals four certain Animatronics coming in with Chica holding a familiar yellow suit with no wires and such inside.

"We got rules at Freddy Fazbear's. You got to be in uniform." Bonnie said to Rough House goofy. No soul inside him anymore but he is funny as ever.

"Arr, arr, come on, in the outfit, or ye be walking the plank!" Foxy demands, laughing madly at Golden House.

"No, no, NOOOOOO!" Rough House screams as Freddy grabs him, preparing to tossed him into the suit.

And during this time, Princess Twilight Sparkle watches on, with a devilish look on her face. Revenge is so sweet.

----------------------------

A few days later has passed. The events involving Freddy Fazbear's Pizza has passed. The place has been fixed up and extended with new funding, now having another reopening. The ponies have been invited to come there for fun. Even Aurora Star and her family has been invited back, being assured that the place is better than it was under bad management and evil possession.

As the family enters there, they're greeted by Shadow Freddy. A few look scared but he says, "Hello folks. Welcome to the Freddy's Pizza restaurant; my name is Shadow Freddy; don't let my looks scare you..........I am very kind and protective to all good boys and girls and grownups......................but you best behave and follow the rules or I will have to put you in time out............"

They are puzzled but smiles even Aurora Star lightly smiles. The family all enters and notice, seeing the Animatronics but notice that the strange smell was gone and they were clean and shining. Some see Foxy who was fully covered with no Exposed endoskeleton and jaw was fixed. As he goes into his place, Aurora was lightly spooked but she notices Shadow Freddy beside them.

Shadow Freddy says, "Do not worry about a thing, fillies and colts, everything is safe here and you must be little Aurora Star................well little filly we all have a big Surprise for you so take your seats and enjoy but be sure to follow the rules."

The family sat down at a table. The band begins to performs as Freddy spoke, "Hey, folks! Welcome to the new and improved Freddy Fazbear's Pizza! We have been improving since what happened not too long ago."

"We like to different a new player of our band." Chica said happily. "Please welcome to our newest band member..."

"Golden Freddy," Bonnie exclaims with a happy laugh.

The foals and everypony else cheers as Golden Freddy is revealed, playing the drums. Unknown to most of them, it's actually Rough House in the outfit, being chained down and being forced to play. As the audience cheers, the criminal groans as he plays the drums for the band whose performs for the audience.

Twilight, her friends, Celestia, Robin, and those involved in the incidents watch on. The princess smirks happily. Rough House is serving his sentence very well.

"Are you all doing better?" A red stallion asks as he came over to the table. He is wearing a hat and coat, along with a security badge, having a cutie mark that has a security green badge on it. The stallion has a short black mane and tail and brown eyes.

"Yes, yes we are." Twilight said with a smile. "You must be new around here."

"Yes, madam. My name is Mike Schmidt, I just been hired on as the new security guard."

"Well, good thing you weren't here during the times." Spike remarks with a chuckle to Twilight. The mare frowns at that. "What?"

"Yeah, well, I better get to work, have fun." Mike said as he heads off to resume his work.

Twilight chuckled, shaking her head. It's ironic he wasn't here for the night shift Tartarus.

After a while the stage performance is over..............but this time they're not buggy and glitch at all. Before they were ready to leave, Freddy says as they notice Foxy and Shadow Freddy coming on stage, "Before you leave folks, we got one last thing to show...........and it is for Aurora star.................do you know where she is?"

Aurora Star is surprised but raises her hoof in the air as she spoke, "Here I am." Freddy sees her and smiles.

"Well Aurora, come on to the stage." Freddy requests. She hesitated but notices Golden Heart and Pinkamena as they give a nod. The filly smiles and gets on stage as Freddy says, "We're sorry about what happened when you came here.............when that happen, it hurt us much more than you...............we are meant to care for fillies and colts not hurt them............."

Foxxy nods as he said in regret, "It be true young one...................after what happened, I am not we bit surprised you be wanting me to walk the plank..............."

Aurora sniffles lightly and says, "Don't be sad Foxy. I should've listen to the worker..........it was really my fault for getting too close..............I knew you and your friends would never really hurt filly's or colts and I forgive you."

That makes them brighten up as Foxy smiles greatly. A hatch was opening as a big present was seen. Freddy says, "Well to show how much you and all of you are important to all of us and to you, we have a surprise for you all and you Aurora Star." Aurora Star notices it and looks at it as it shakes.

"There's something in there."

"Well to open this present, everybody has to say it's Party Time; Ready folks? 'It's Party Time'." Freddy said. The box shakes but stops, "Seems we have to cheer louder; Ready folks; 'It's Party Time'." It shakes more but stops again as Freddy says, "Ok, everyone, let's all cheer very loud so we can open this box ready."

Freddy then says along with everyone, "'It's Party Time'!"

The box's top burst open as lots of sparkles come out and a Pony leaps in the air and spins. It lands and slowly stands on all fours and the crowd stares at it. it was an Animatronic Pony (but the others know who it is). Aurora Star moves closer as it twitches and it's eyes glow blue and it jumps, coming to life making her back up in a surprise landing in a sitting Stance.

Animatronic Pinkamena says, "Hello all you boys and girls and folks! I'm Animatronic Pinkamena! You all ready to have fun because I AM! What's your name little filly?"

She is lightly surprised but Aurora Star giggles, "Um Aurora Star."

"Hellos um Aurora Star," Animatronic Pinkamena jokes a bit. That makes some giggle at how silly that was as Aurora giggles as the robot hops a bit. "I know your name is Aurora Star! Just playing with you silly filly..............hey, how about we sing a song? In fact you all can join this song, ready?"

Everyone begins singing "Giggle at the Ghosties". Even Pinkie is all smiles, singing as well as the band performs while Foxy and Animatronic Pinkamena fires out cannons. It was a fun time tonight, the madness that took over the restaurant is now gone!

After it's over, Aurora was laughing greatly as she hugs the Animatronic Pony and the others, "Tank you...............this was the best day ever." She heads to her parents as she says, "Mommy, daddy, I hope this place stays forever..........I want to come here every day..............."

The parents think but look at the stage seeing the happy foals playing games with the Animatronics. They were worried but after seeing Golden Heart, Pinkamena and the others giving a nod, they smile and nod to her as she smiles brightly.

"Thank you mom and dad," Aurora Star said happily. For the first time in years since the Incident Bite, this mare is happy.

-----------------------

After the party is over, it's time for everypony to head on home. Celestia said her final goodbyes to Azure who is preparing to finally going back home after being absent.

"Thank you for coming and assist us in some situation. We're honored." Celestia said to her former husband calmly.

Azure nods, speaking, "As do I, my friend. I hope you can take an ease and rest from the sufferings."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Thank you for the concern of me, my friend."

Azure nodded his head as he turned and led his team to the train. Bullhound was speaking to Rhino, who has been released from the hospital, "How's the wound, buddy?"

Rhino grunted, "Fine... At least, those doctors and nurses don't try to nag me about my injuries. I hate that...A lot. Now, I can go back to the battlefield."

"I'm surprised that you're not mad at Celestia's secret 'crush'." Anger comments to Azure, amused upon remember whom Celestia now has a crush on.

Azure sighed in annoyance, "Don't start with that. I have had enough of the problems."

Schemetrick nodded, commenting, "At least, Celestia doesn't need to marry with a bandit or a pirate. I hate to see your temper."

Azure chuckled, "Perhaps..."

As Twilight's friends headed off, Twilight stopped as she felt the wind blowing her mane. She turned and looked at the shadowy figure.

"You..." Twilight said, recognizing the figure wearing a cloak, whom she hasn't been seen in a while.

Shadow Dragon nods, speaking, "It's been a while, Princess. So, how's your job from Freddy's Place? Did you take care of your fear?"

Twilight sighed, "Yeah, I did. And you have seen it, didn't you?"

"Yeah, I did. I was reluctant to let you do it. But in truth, fear will continue to consume till the end of your life if you do not face it."

"And you decide to let me do it, didn't you? You've been watching me since the first night. You've set some kind of tricks in delaying animatronics in getting me and my friends?"

Shadow Dragon chuckles as he explains, "Yes. I did inform the last security guy to make some information for you to be prepared for them. You did well to follow them. And trust me, I know what it feels to be traumatized by death."

"Your wife..." Twilight said. She knew whom Shadow Dragon is talking about: his former friend, Iris Crystal who is now dead.

"Now that you free them, you're free from trauma for good."

"So, where will you be going?"

"Hunting the Dark Mystic Ponies and Marionette. I'm no longer a Dark Mystic or Mystic Pony anymore. I'm going to hunt every last of Dark Mystic Ponies. They either surrender or died. I will make sure the war ends sooner or later." Shadow Dragon said sternly. The Dark Mystic Ponies and the Marionette was responsible for almost cleansing Equestria in their own sinister way. They must be punished.

"Will I see you again?" Twilight ask Shadow Dragon softly and hopefully.

"That depends on how long. But maybe I will, my friend."

Twilight smiled as she kissed on Shadow Dragon's lips for the moment. She then departed, making the former Dark Mystic Pony/Mystic Pony blinks a bit.

Shadow Dragon sighed in annoyance, "If you keep on like this, you'll be in big trouble, Twilight. And you really need to choose someone you really love."

Twilight shrugged while commenting Can't help it. Besides, I was kinda born in this way."

Shadow Dragon sighed, "Fine. But... it does feel good to have a good kiss. You better get going. Nyx is worry about you. And she really needs you too."

Twilight nodded as she said, "Yeah. See you soon, Shadow Dragon." Shadow Dragon is right. She hasn't seen her daughter in a while and Nyx might want to know why. This story will be a long one to explain to her own foal.

Shadow Dragon nodded as he said, "We will meet again."

Shadow Dragon disappeared in darkness while Twilight turned and headed off in meeting up with Nyx.

Elsewhere in Another Universe

"Okay, Freddy's now reopened." A human remark with a grunt as he put up the last of the Animatronics in place; Foxy the Pirate Fox though being hidden behind a curtain. "The last closing was Hell but at least we managed to get a fourth reopening."

"I know, I know, because the incidents in the 70s, 80s and recently? We're damn lucky to rebuilt the old robots." The worker remarks. His colleague opens another box and is surprised.

"Hey, never thought to see this again." The first worker said as he took out a familiar Puppet. "Weird, this thing was missing since the 80s when the updated robots and that freaky Balloon Boy was scrapped."

"Well, keep it in another place. The boss may want to see what to do with it later."

The first human worker nods as he put the Marionette onto a box and left with his colleague. Unknown to either one of them, the Marionette's eyes flash open. Evil laughter is heard...
