   Summary

   Mike Schmidt knows very little about the man who left voice messages during his week at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.

   But what could he know? The man never shared any detail in those recordings about himself, except for that he worked in that security office before Mike and was finishing his "...last week now, as a matter of fact!" Besides that, Mike knows what his voice sounded like, and that he died almost exactly a year ago after being caught by the animatronics.

   Which means that when that familiar voice picks up from the other end of a phone call, Mike is at a loss at what to do.
