   Summary

   William Afton, a genius of robotics ahead of his time, sees his new daily life as a pizzeria owner disrupted the day he finds the corpse of a little girl in the star animatronic robot of his restaurant. Completely panicked, he makes a huge mistake: he gets rid of the child.

   A few days later, a succession of paranormal events happen in the small building: one of the robots is walking freely during the night, and he can't find a logical reason why it keeps happening. This event is the start of a very long descent into hell, marked with tragedies, deaths, and vengeance.

   Will William finally make the right choices to get through these terrible ordeals?

   *********

   This story is a rewritten version of William Afton's story, to give him better motivations for his actions. It follows most of the game's lore, but some parts have been changed drastically to better stick with the story.
