Chapter Text

“What the hell” muttered boyfriend after staring at a package he found on his porch. Boyfriend looked around at his walls which were covered in framed pictures of his friends. One keeps his gaze, it was after he convinced Darnell he wasn’t what he thought he was after, after boyfriend kicked his ass both in a rap battle and fist fight. Pico and Girlfriend had arrived at the moment they shook hands. Nene was livid and that was putting it lightly, it was the fifth time they tried to kill him which means they lost the hit on him, to her 5 million dollars and a monster was shaking hands with one of her friends (not she would tell darnell he was a friend to her).

Snapping back to reality from his nostalgia ,his focus was back on the villain envelope that sat in front of him. The logo printed on the flap sends him to a place he hasn’t thought about for years “PLAYTIME.CO”. His face loses all color as he stares at it for a long time debating if it's a sick prank or a bomb. After a heavy sigh he grabbed a letter opener and cut an opening in the envelope dumping the contents on his coffee table. “Well it's not a bomb so…” the contents are a crinkled notebook paper and a vhs tape. He looked at the paper first and let out a small gasp as his eyes read the words

“Everyone thinks the staff dissappeared 10 years ago
Wer’e still here.
FIND THE FLOWER”

He couldn’t believe it but it was in his hands although there was something off. Why was “we’re” spelt wrong and I think so is “disappeared". He then picked up the vhs, it was yellow but incredibly dirty like it was fished out of a landfill and smelled like. The words “ Vintage Poppy commercial” in cyan. Boyfriend groaned since there is only one vhs player in the house that being the one attached to the box tv in his attic. Boyfriend mutters under his breath and begins the long walk to his mansion’s attic. He passes by music records, newspapers, and photos all about him or relates to things he has done, but as before he couldn’t help but grin he feels a dark warning that he was making a mistake he would never be the same afterwards.

Boyfriend punched the attic hatch open and entered the attic where in front of him was the tv covered by a white sheet not to protect it from dust but so Boyfriend didn’t have to look at it after everything it caused him to experience. Boyfriend slowly pulls the sheet off to reveal the Vhs player and box tv combo. It was battered but not because of anything he did, a huge crack in the monitor itself. With heavy breaths he inserts the tape and prays to god or any other deity that everything goes fine.

"You are about to see the most incredible doll ever invented. Her name is Poppy, and she is the first truly intelligent doll in the world.” Boyfriend knew who the older man was in the commercial, none other than Elliot Ludwig ,the founder and he was the CEO up till he vanished 4 years before everyone else did too. He sat there watching the commercial as it played how he remembered but suddenly during the tutorial on how to care for her there was a shot of someone pulling her voice box out the back but some liquid was coated on the voice box. He couldn’t tell  what it was because the color in the tape had faded to monotone but Boyfriend guessed it was blood. “What in the sweet hell, that can’t be blood right… what is going on” the tape seemed to get back on track with it ending with the factory tours when the tape cut again to a shot of catwalks but more importantly a giant painted mural of a poppy flower like the one in the note.

Boyfriend was trying to get that image of the dripping voice box out of his mind but he couldn’t. 

You know you can't ignore this any longer, come on bf you must find out what happened for better or worse.

Boyfriend frowned hard as he kept thinking about it.

Come on you have rapped against monsters, demons, and twisted psychos and you had a confident grin on your dumb face, what could a toy factory do.

Boyfriend chugged a whole can of soda then made up his mind he was gonna go back. He grabbed a heavy duty backpack and began to load food, a flashlight, batteries, a pocket knife, lighter, spray paint ,and water. He then grabbed a post-it note and wrote”gone out, don't know when I'll be back” and set it on his front door. He decided to take his van since while his sports car is cool it's really only for display not use. He began to drive away from his mansion, he gave one last to his home before it vanished behind the trees.

“Here we fuckin go” boyfriend said preparing for the worst

Chapter Text

Boyfriend was nearing the factory as the colorful but faded smoke stacks appeared above the tree line slowly and dirtied by the elements. He was almost there, just one obstacle left, a metal fence. The fence was set up by the military when everyone disappeared, but boyfriend didn’t care so he stepped on the gas ramming his bulky van into the fence knocking a section down. Soon bf parked his van in the parking lot in a way that if this was in public he would be called an asshole because his van took up to six spaces. It didn't matter though since his van was the only car in the lot since every car that was there was towed away. He cut the engine then chucked his keys on the dashboard, with a deep breath he got out of the van.

When Boyfriend pushed open the entrance doors it was like stepping into what was like the ruins of your childhood home, memories of his goofy shenanigans that made any staff who saw it giggle like kids except one and he spotted his name on a tape on the front desk.

Leith Pierre Closing

The tape is green and nearby is a green VCR “can they be any more obvious with where this tape is meant to be played” boyfriend groaned as he popped the tape into the player. After a few seconds it began to play.

"Hi, my name is Leith Pierre and I'm the head of innovation here at the Playtime Co. Toy Factory.”

Boyfriend quickly turned down the volume then paused the tape to look around before realizing he was alone. AND NO MATTER HOW HARD HE TRIES HE WILL ALWAYS BE ALONE! Boyfriend shakes his head and resumes the tape.

“If you're seeing this, then you're trespassing. Yeah, we play this little tape on loop whenever we close the factory for the day. So trespasser, just to make you aware. While we pride ourselves primarily on our high quality toys and excellent childcare, we also pride ourselves on our security.”

“Right cause we had a BIIIIGGG government contract” he rolls his eyes. We make toys not secret weapons… right?. “Well i guess when they vanished it had to be day time, why wasn’t this in the news… did they even know.

“For example, this facility is full of hidden motion triggers which, once set off, will turn on the factory's emergency alarms and directly contact the authorities! And that's one of the more tame aspects of our security system. No spoilers… So, you've got my warning. It's not too late to turn around. I just hope you're certain whatever you're doing is worth it."

“The fuck you mean ‘tamed aspects’ you got sentry turrets” boyfriend shout for seemingly no reason “man i swear to god if i get shot…” boyfriend trail off as the tape was ejected from the VCR. Boyfriend took the tape then stuffed it into his bag before he headed to the security room.
“Locked with a color combination.” After 30 minutes of trying to brute force it, he walked to the gift shop which is really more like playtime.co’s in house toy store but two things stood out. One the toy train was still running somehow, but boyfriend tried to shrug it off as a backup generator although how has it been running for 20 years without maintenance. Two there was a broken toy, a green robot, boogie bot if boyfriend remembers correctly, but what scares him is there's blood and a lot of it around the toy. It can't be from the toy… can it. Boyfriends remembers the alter poppy commercial with the bloody voice box. No, it might be one of Leith’s stupid innovations, so if the toy is damaged the kids can put a band-aid on to pretend to care for it.

After staring at the toy for an uncomfortable amount of the toy train calls his adhd brain to it with its horn. The train colors were awful to his eyes but … it can’t be that simple, they aren’t stupid… right? Putting the color order from engine to caboose into the key pad the door opens. “Oh my god did they pay Capcom's team that works on resident evil games to make this, this is the stupidest thing for a key pad and, I'm mad it works.”

Boyfriend then spotted something that made him smile since he first stepped in here, a grabpack, the device used by trained professional trained members of the factory. Boyfriend never got why they needed it but guess it's time to find out why. He grabbed a blue tape labeled “GrabPack training “ then popped it in the corresponding VCR. It was relatively simple at first, telling him to tighten the straps and to fire it at large objects, to drag them, and to fire at small object's handles. What shocked him when the early 3d models demonstrated that it has the power to rip a head off a man. “OKAY, that explains a lot of why i was denied one” boyfriend said with a wide expression. Besides that it can conduct electricity through the wires.

When the tape ended he stuff that too, then put on his very own grabpack which felt like putting on a mech suit but more akin to something like you see in cartoons. Giving it a test fire at the office chair to see if it works and to his joy it did unaware of a faint red mist in the air. The moment he left the office to head to the shutter he bumped into something and groaned. Looking up he saw 3 people he didn't expect to find here.

Chapter Text

“Pico, Nene, Darnell what the hell, how'd you know where i was” boyfriend shouted surprised they were here. Pico helped boyfriend to his feet, Pico wore a lime green shirt with dark green sleeves, tan pants from the 90’s, and most strikingly his orange hair styled similar to sonic the hedgehog but the ends had been sand down. “Well after that time you drove to the middle of nowhere drunk as shit, i had put a tracking chip in your van in case you did something like that again” Pico said his voice while still sound young was also a little robotic from years of smoking. “Yeah man, what the hell are you doing here” Darnell said in his gruff tone. Darnell was black man wearing a purple hoodie with yellow sleeves, his hair was flat on to make it look like you could stack books on it. “Well ,not that I told you but I used to work here, and i … how do i put this” boyfriend said being a sore thumb in the group since he was really short making him look like a child. “Really you worked here, I loved Playtime.co’s toys.” Nene said looking the most normal in the group as she had a normal hair style and pink clothes that were really distracting. Pico noticed the grabpack on his back and the fact he was holding his backpack in his hands “what's that? Looks like something mickey mouse would use, "Pico said, slightly amused as he took the backpack from boyfriend put it on.

“Well it's a GrabPack and it was used by certain employees to do all sorts of stuff. So are you guys gonna try and make me go home?” Darnell was looking at a poster on the wall that featured Poppy and the text “POPPY wants to PLAY” causing Darnell to raise an eyebrow. “Nah, I want to explore this place too.” nene said in a giddy tone. Boyfriend nodded, then fired the blue hand at the scanner behind a turnstile. After a few seconds the shutter opened slowly, boyfriend hopped over the turnstile followed by Nene. Pico and Darnell look at each other before following their two friends. Darnell was taken aback by what he saw while Pico look confused, their in front of them was a statue of some blue creature
With yellow hands… paws… whatever, and a big goofy smile with red lips. “ Damn Ocsar has been hitting the gym.” Darnell blurted out. “It's Grove not Oscar, Oscar was the green one who lives in the trash” they both chuckled at Pico’s comment. Nene shot them death glares while boyfriend tried to keep a straight face, key word try. Pico walk up to an information panel and began to read it aloud.

“Huggy Wuggy (1984) -Playtime Co. has designed hundreds of distinct toys, but none connected with people more than that of Huggy Wuggy. Our founder, Elliot Ludwig, aimed to create a toy which could hug you forever! As is always true, Playtime Co.'s '4-Step Process to creating the most lifelike toys,' was a success!

With a bit of string and polyester, our lovable, blue pal Huggy was brought to life! Huggy Wuggy has gone on to be Playtime Co.'s most popular and best selling toy so far!”

Boyfriend aimed the blue hand at another scanner causing a loud spark that caused everyone to close their eyes and cover their ears. When everyone recovered from the shock ,a light clink was heard causing boyfriend to look around, noticing Huggy Wuggy had a key. After boyfriend used the grabpack to get the key he looked around for where it could go until he noticed the power room had a key lock. Once everyone was inside Darnell shut the door. “Uh darnell why you-” nene was cut off with darnell saying “that thing gives me the willys”. While Pico and nene were teasing Darnell, Boyfriend did the stupid puzzle and reset the power. When Boyfriend walked by his friends and opened the door he gasped. “What, you're scared of a statue too. Geez i thou-” nene stop when she sees it, huggy is gone.

Chapter Text

The group stood in front of Huggy’s pedestal looking scared. They shared a glance that said “we are screwed”. There was no way back the shutter had shut while they were in the power room. “Well, only one way for now” Boyfriend pointed to the shutter he tried to open before the power failure. The short boyfriend led the way as if boyfriend was a child leading his parents around a theme park.

They soon enter a store room filled with boxes of toy stuff like parts, paint, and the boxes the toys would come in but not set up. Boyfriend noticed another broken toy, this one of a Catbee. The feline and insect hybrid eyes had rolled in its head like it was dead, and more red liquid pool around it. Darnell noticed what boyfriend was staring at and knew it was blood, he went to say something but pico shouted “HEY, BF I FOUND A VHS TAPE”. Boyfriend head over to Pico and took the tape from his hands. It was labeled “ Security Camera: Rich / Avery” and was orange. After a bit of searching he found the vhs player and inserted the tape.

“ Ugh, Rich, where are they keeping the Huggy boxes?” boyfriend guessed that Avery. A scoff is heard followed by “ I don't know, I couldn't tell you.Remember when maintenance last did a sweep of this place?” Boyfriend was actually friends with Rich, sure he was quick to anger but under all his anger he was a good man. “No.” said Avery and Rich responded with “Exactly, nobody in this stupid company knows what they're doing. Aw, I swear, I haven't seen a single box in its place since they started flooding the storehouse with orphanage junk.” Avery simply said “Right...” which caused Rich to continue. “I get it, it's a nice program and all, on-brand, but *sigh*. It's just hard to be happy about it when manufacturing is on OUR NECKS about it, cause we can't find the stupid Huggy boxes!” Yep Rich definitely got in trouble for this. Avery simply said “Rich…” and Rich began to calm down and with a sigh said “You're right, you're right. It's... It's for the orphans... I just wish there were less boxes. Anything less would be more abidable. Is- is that even a word? Abidable?”

“ nope that not a word pal” boyfriend said as the tape was ejected. He motions to Pico so he can store the tape. As he zips up the backpack he sees in the corner of his eye, something blue. But before he could get a good look it slipped back into the conveyor belt system. Nene had finished grabbing the fuses needed to use the crane to get the missing grabpack hand for boyfriend. With a nod boyfriend inserted the right cable in the hand then used it to start the conveyor belt to get deeper in the factory.

Pico, Darnell, and Nene followed him. As they travel though the system pico and Nene realize they left their weapons in the car. Toy parts start raining on them as they reach the end of the line. They all tumble into some tube thing. Boyfriend stands up and once past the broken glass finds himself in the Make-A-Friend room. Darnell throws lighter to the ground “ damn it, I'm out of juice.” Pico and Nene realize they have no way to defend themselves if shit hits the fan, which given they are with boyfriend it will.

After some more electricity puzzles, boyfriend starts the Make-A-Friend and creates a Catbee toy so the scanner will open the shutter so they can return to the lobby. While boyfriend continues, the others look around, spotting a poster on the wall that reads in bold text “ Fostering happiness” then in a star “adopt an orphan today”. “Huh , strange,” Darnell said. “What is?” Pico asked. “Well most toy factories don't have an on site orphanage, so why do they.” Darnell explains. Before anyone could say something,boyfriend shouted ”oh sweet mother of crap!!” and then “run!!!” The trio spotted a conveyor belt door lift and as boyfriend sprints towards them as Huggy Wuggy ducks under the arch doorway.

Chapter Text

It was a blur of movement for the four humans as they ran though the system of conveyor belts as Huggy Wuggy chased them. His tall lanky body looks cramped as he gives chase at a terrifying speed. Boyfriend occasionally looks back at the creature. That's not animatronic, is it? No, its mouth has saliva in it. WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE? Eventually the group made it out the conveyor belt tunnels after a slope made them slide down. Darnell was the first out followed by Pico then Nene and lastly boyfriend. A piece of the conveyor belt had been bent upwards causing the group to be stuck and pile up. As boyfriend sighed in relief he heard Huggy on the other side of the conveyor door.

THUD

Boyfriend looked back to see his back on the broken conveyor, his cargo backpack attached to the grabpack. His friends are nowhere to be found

THUD

Looking up he sees a large crate that might block the door.

Crash

Boyfriend had dragged the crate off the cross beam with the Grabpack and it crashed into the conveyor and broke it, dropping Boyfriend and Huggy Wuggy onto a catwalk. Boyfriend had landed on his feet (which hurt like hell). Huggy however was draped over the railing and was slowly slipping off.

DONT JUST STAND THERE... DO SOMETHING YOU FUCKING IDIOT!!!

Without even thinking, Boyfriend grabbed one of Huggy's arms and pulled him up with his entire body strength (despite his size ,little shit could pick up a ). Once Huggy was on the catwalk they both just stared at each other while panting from the chase. That's when he noticed blood was trickling down an open cut on Huggy’s head. Boyfriend reached into the bag and pulled out some gauze and bandages to treat Huggy's wound. Huggy backed away clearly scared. “Hey I want to help just stay still please’ boyfriend said in a tone that seemed angelic to Huggy and calmed him down, letting him wrap up his head injury. Once done he got up and turned to leave but felt something wrap around his left arm.

He heard a soft growl which made him freezed…. Wait, is he nuzzling into me? As boyfriend looked back, sure enough Huggy was well being huggy. “Oh you .. sure you can come with me” boyfriend was unsure whether to be concerned or happy to not be alone with Huggy following him like a lost puppy. He struggles to move as huggy tight grip on him really hinders him. boyfriend shoe connects with another vhs tape but unlike the others tapes it is not a bright color its pure black which is both welcome and unwelcome. The label was dirty with “FINAL LOG” on it written sloppy as if the writer was fearing for his/her life. With a heavy groan he popped it into a nearby CRT monitor feeling he wouldn’t like what on the tape.
"Final log. In relation: Experiment 1-0-0-6. The Prototype." The voice on the tape is one boyfriend doesn't recognize and what's the prototype and a prototype of what. There are faint thuds, screeching, and bloodcurdling screams which boyfriend freezes in terror. "Coordination and cooperation is evidently within his skillset, as well as the skillset of all other experiments of his type." wait wait wait did they actually make living toys. "Though still missing, today's events are no doubt in relation to him. His absence was a flaw in the scientific process which should have under no circumstances been left unaccounted for. That's why I'm making this log: So that the same mistake won't be made twice.” The screaming gets louder in the background and the person recording stops for a moment before continuing. "Any future experiments will need to be contained and disposed of in a secure location. I'm not worried about myself. One breakthrough and I'll be back. We must forge onwards in the name of science. Whether those who are beneath us understand it or not. End of–” ‘what the shit happened here’ boyfriend looked at Huggy and he seemed to be nervous. “Uhh its okay buddy its just a recording”

Boyfriend noticed it, the flower drawing from the note is in front of him but bigger, way bigger. Huggy was oblivious to the importance of the mural so entered the door in the center of the painting. Boyfriend slowly approached the door which was different from the metal doors of the rest of the factory. This was wooden and if he had to guess it was dark oak. Once he opened the door he saw a staircase plucked from a mansion that was made in the 60s. Boyfriend took a step down the stairs then lost his footing. He fell down the stairs till he reached the bottom in front of huggy in a groaning heap.

“Beeep”

The sound emitted by boyfriend was a surprise to huggy but he shrugged it off. Boyfriend pulled himself up and looked around. “Is this a… dollhouse ?” he heard a music box playing and slowly headed to the source which is a glass case in which poppy playtime herself was asleep. Without much thought he opens the door releasing a red fog onto the duo lulling them to sleep. As boyfriend slowly waded into a slumber he heard poppy say something.

“You open my case?”

Chapter Text

Pico enters his friend’s mansion through the back entrance. He was used to walking in unannounced since boyfriend gave him a key to his home. Pico did accept since he still had feelings for his ex but respected his decision to stay friends. He grabbed a root beer from the fridge before snuggling up into the best chair in the house. Pico then heard voices coming from the porch and immediately assumed that someone was here to try and end bf’s life. Pulling out one his modified mac-10 he slowly approached the door.

“Pico open the damn door,” a woman’s voice said, which he recognized as Nene.

Pico unlocked the door but still held his gun tightly. Opening the door he saw that Darnell was there too.

“Uh can i fuckin help you” pico said in his slightly gravely voice

Darnell spoke as he lit up a cigarette “well Im here because boyfriend said he had a crap ton of boxes for me to burn, her i don’t know.”

“Well I figure you come here for you’re unable to move on” Nene said while glaring at the both of them.

“Oh my God let it go, I'm not killing my childhood best friend for any amount of money.” Pico groaned.

“Huh did boyfriend have anything to do today?” Darnell said, grabbing a post it note on the door.

“Uh not to my knowledge” pico said looking concern

“Well he is out and he doesn’t know when he will be back according to this note.”

Pico sighed looking into the living room spotting a note, envelope, and a vhs tape on the table. As Pico gets closer to the items he spots a logo for a company he haven’t heard about in a long time. ‘PLAYTIME.CO’ Pico was never close to the factory but he knew boyfriend was a worker. He picked up the note and felt a chill down his neck.

“Everyone thinks the staff dissappeared 10 years ago
Wer’e still here.
FIND THE FLOWER”

‘What the hell’ is this a ploy to get bf killed. Darnelll notice the note and look weirded out.

“What does he have to do with that place?” Darnell said with confusion in his voice.

“He worked there but I'm not sure what he did,” Pico said, putting the note in his pocket.

“ARE YOU REALLY GONNA HEAD TO THAT PLACE IN THE HOPES OF GETTING BACK WITH YOUR EX?!” Nene shouted at Pico.

“No, I'm going to save him from this obvious trap” Pico shouted at Nene.

“Yo, you really think so?” Darnell said

“I know so, why else would someone write a note like that” pico muttered

“Well if you're going then I'm going too, it's been pretty boring this week” Darnel said with a grin.

Darnell and Pico began to head to their suv only to see Nene follow them. “Uh why are you coming?” Pico said with a little bit of confusion. “Eh its something to do Pricko”

“Nene you know i hate that nickname” pico shouted

“Aw shit this is gonna be a long day” darnell said as pico pulled out of the driveway.

Chapter Text

The door to Boyfriend’s office swung open and slammed into the wall. As he looks up from the paper he's writing. “Marie are you okay? You seem upset” he says in a calm voice. “No, those kids who like ‘smiling friends’ or whatever are so mean,” the girl said. “Well what happened dear?” he asked. “Well I was with Barry, I was playing with my Mommy ,Barry had his Bunzo when he got hit by a soccer ball”. “I see ,did they say sorry?” Marie's face goes sad “ I didn't give them a chance to… I was so angry I hit them”. “Well how about this, i’ll go with you to apologize and hear their apology ,then I'll give you all some popsicles. Sounds good?” he said with a sweet smile, which Marie nodded in agreement.

“WAKE UP”

Boyfriend shot awake slowly remembering where he was and what just happened. He feels himself become weightless as something squeezes him from behind. Looking behind him he sees Huggy giving him a hug growling in a concerned tone.

“Hey buddy, im okay” boyfriend said, patting the arms holding him up. Huggy chirps happily as he continues to hug him. The toy puts boyfriend down then pats him on his head. “Well i have been asleep, well more like unconscious, for long enough we got a poppy to find and a factory to escape”

As boyfriend and huggy exited the doll case room they found the staircase leading to the catwalks blocked by furniture. A cabinet was knocked over revealing a metal door. Boyfriend opens the door and is greeted by a long hallway. At the end is Elliot Ludwig’s office, an oak door painted red. He tries the door but it's locked, nothing a good kick can’t fix. With a swift motion he kicks the door with his right foot which breaks the lock and the door swings open although it has the letters N G on it from bf’s shoe. His attention was drawn to the desk where a brown vhs and note laid on the table, he read the note first
Experiment 814
Notes:
This experiment utilized a live rat.
Rat was fed 3 portions daily for 2 weeks.
At the end of the two weeks, the rat was killed and submerged into a poppy flower and preservative gel mixture.
1 week later, an electric shock was applied to the rat (still in the gel) in an attempt to revive it.
The rat remained unresponsive.
Analysis:
I still believe in the potential of the poppy flower. Its unusual properties lead me to believe that the proper mixture and procedure could have life altering properties. The poppy flower has for a long time carried heavy symbolism, and I don't believe that's for no reason. Perhaps something larger than a rat would yield different results.

What the hell, the sweet hell is this. Boyfriend hears Huggy chirp so looks up and notices he's looking at some kid’s drawings. Bf looks at the tape but since its a documentary he tosses it into his bag with the note. He spots a huge vent and after pulling off the cover and enters. Huggy goes to follow but boyfriend tells him to stay. When he gets to the other end he drops down into some sort of power room.

“BOP” boyfriend shouted as a box fell from a ledge.

“Oh, sorry! I didn't mean to scare ya.” The poppy doll from earlier was where the box was “ I was just trying to get the power back on… here” she moved out the way to reveal a grabpack outlet. One quick puzzle later and the doll gives him some appluse.

“Hey do you want down… uh”stammered “Im poppy ,like the doll you know and yes uh… promise to catch me?” Poppy asked, looking a little scared. Bf nodded and after a moment jumped into bf’s arms. The first thing he noticed was that Poppy was warm like body heat, and was that a heart beat he felt?

Poppy seemed a little nervous like she wanted to say something. “Uh, is Huggy still with you?”. Bf nodded “yeah he’s waiting back in Elliot’s office” he said using the grabpack to lift them to the vent he came from. Once back in the office Huggy perked up with a “hrrrmp”. “ found Poppy buddy, now where to next” Bf looked at Poppy.

“Well the game station nearby the train could help us get out of here” she said

“I don't want to escape yet” boyfriend said quickly

“Oh well the train will still be a help since it was used to take the kids to playcare” she said “ that is actually helpfully since we need your help mister…” “boyfriend, Boyfriend .xml… yeah weird name but lets not dwell on it.” The trio exited the office and went left where the restored power allowed the grabpack scanner to turn on. They were greeted by a huge gap in the hall’s floor, a steel beam is the only way across. Bf crawled across the beam deciding using it like a tight rope would be a sure way to fall.Huggy followed bf by inching across the beam hugging it for dear life. Poppy simply walked across since she was small and it was pretty wide for her. Once across bf put Poppy on his shoulder. They enter a room with a huge hole in the middle. Poppy pulled out a note to hand to bf but before they could a pink hand shoot out of the hole and reach for Poppy. Bf dodge out the way with poppy but the hand grabbed the note then retreated into the dark pit.

“What was that?” bf shouted. “Mommy Long legs” Poppy said.

Chapter Text

Boyfriend stared at the hole for a good minute. “Welp , no where else to go but down” bf said hopping down the hole. Bf starts to feel himself slide down something. He slid out of a colorful tube. Looking back he saw it was the executive slides that the heads of the company. Poppy then came out Elliot’s slide followed by Huggy Wuggy which caused them to be in an unholy heap at the bottom. They all one by one slowly got up with a series of groans. A door sat in front of them labeled ‘Game Station’ with a sigh bf open the doors.

A red hand scanner was needed to open some shutters, but at this point it was expected. As the red grabpack hand reached the scanner the pink hand from earlier grabbed it and stole the hand with a fake gasp.

“A new playmate, it's been so long” a feminine voice said, drawing out the last word as if to prove a point. “Well now if it isn’t poppy, oh huggy too. Now why are you two together…” The figure slowly descended from the dark of the tall room revealing a toy with stretchy limbs and a barbie pink. Bf remember the toy was called mommy long legs, which for this was a good name but today's horny world is making him really uncomfortable.

“Well now I heard you were looking to take the train down to playcare, of course I have the code” mommy said with a fake smile.

“That you stole” bf said under his breath. “So let me guess i gotta play your games to get the code , right”

“Oh you're so smart.”mommy said with a fake happy tone ”Word of advice, obey the rules or ill eat your inside while you're still alive” she said that in a dark tone before laughing like a manic into the dark.

The shutter door started to raise up. “Welp I'm down a hand, and I got a feeling she is going to try to rig these games so I die, Yippie ki-yay”. They enter the game station, a huge space with playground equipment and toys that used to entertain the kids while they waited to play the games. There was a raised platform where a control panel was beeping with 3 levers on the panel. He pulled the lever and heard the intercom come to life.

“Hi kids! Welcome to the Game Station! I'm Stella and we've got three super, duper fun games to play! These little tests show us just how crazy, strong and smart you are! Follow Mommy Long Legs down the stairs and we'll start by playing Musical Memory! See you in a bit!”

A door on the floor to bf’s left open. ‘Is this a rhythm game? he is gonna excel at this’. “So I'm gonna go down and screw around with whatever so stay here and I'll probably be back.” he said fidgeting with the power room key he got on the first floor. “Uh sure be careful if i remember right the games traumatized the children.” Poppy said as bf nodded and descended the stairs.

Poppy waited till bf disappeared “Look Huggy i know you don’t trust me and I don't trust you but we have a shared allie so all prior disagreements are behind us till we get out ,deal” Huggy nodded.

Chapter Text

Boyfriend walked down the stairs to musical memory his mind trying to figure what went down there. There are living toys that much is clear, from huggy bleeding from where the crate hit to poppy being warm tells him they are somewhat organic not possessed by spirits. His train of thought was interrupted by the shutter forward being stuck open at an awkward angle. He spotted a tunnel that looks like someone with a big drill made. Once he was though he found himself in a room similar to the Make-A-Friend room but smaller. There was a blinking button on the control panel so he pressed it. A clear tube filled with plastic balls then they melted to a white goo. He noticed a pipe wasn’t connected so he used the grabpack to put it in place. He pushed the next button and the liquid plastic was moved to some hand molds to harden. He pressed the next button but besides a fart sound nothing happened. He realized he needed to refill the paint so he headed up some stairs finding the green paint bucket. He put it in a slot and jumped up over the railing onto the ground with a roll. He pushed the button again and the dried hands were coated with a green mist. He pushed the last button which brought the finished hands to a line. He grabbed 2 hands as a precaution in case he got robbed again. After a quick tape explaining the hand properties. He used it to gather a charge to open a door. He spotted a cutout of a yellow rabbit. “Wasn’t his name bozo or something.” He entered a large circular room with tvs embedded in the wall. They started up with some boring instruction but he wasn’t paying attention because he was firing his grabpack hands at random. Mommy enters the observation room and looks out the window with a smug look only for it to flatter at the sight of the seemingly insane human losing it in the room.

“HEY, what are you… doing” she shouted at him at first before slowly going back to its sickly sweet tone. “I dunno, I'm just messing around instead of listening to those boring instructions.Mommy’s eyes twitched but her smile widened in the way a customer service worker would deal with a difficult customer. “Do you know how to play?” she asked “duh i heard kids describe the games to me so i know how they work” he said. “Good , it's good to see the game station up and running again…” she was cut off by bf saying “oh hey Bozo” the yellow rabbit screeched at him. “Uh, guess I got his name wrong” he said with a sheepish grin. “Bunzo is excited too, to play, to cheer, to eat” mommy said which was proven by Bunzo banging his cymbals together. “Oh that's the dinner bell.good luck” with that the game begins.

blue . repeat. blue , blue. Repeat. Blue ,blue ,blue. Repeat. Blue,blue, blue, blue. Repeat. Round 1 complete.

“My god what are the chances of that BS.” bf retort Bunzo squeal a response seems to agree.

Round 2.

Yellow.reapet . yellow, blue. Repeat. yellow , blue, green. Repeat. Yellow,blue, green, violet. Bf immediately turned around to find the button and beat round two.

Round 3.

Orange. He scans for the button and hits it. Orange, blue. “Okay the color background on the screens are lying, cool.” orange, blue ,? . “okay i know i barely made it though elementary school but im pretty sure symbols aren’t a color”. Orange , blue,?, red.

Round 4

Pi. repeat. Pi, heart. Repeat. Bf let out a yawn. Pi, heart, white. Repeat. Pi, heart,white, violet. Repeat.

Round 5

A full arsenal of buttons surrounded him in two rows. The screens start saying sequences at a rapid pace, but it was nothing he couldn’t handle. He did beat Matt from wii sports and he sang twice as fast. After a few minutes of bf perfectly getting the patterns right the screens simply said “you win” in bold letters. “Well that wasn’t too bad.” looking at the two toys in the room their faces were shocked. Mommy regains her composure and smiles in a sorta genuine way “ Wow Mommy never seen someone play Musical Memory that well at that difficulty”. “What can I say? I practice hitting notes in order” bf said with a smile. “Mommy has de-” she was cut off by boyfriend “hey does buno stay strapped to the machine all the time.” Mommy was caught off guard by the question. “Oh uh i guess Mommy never found a way to undo the straps.” She admitted. “ oh well lower down and ill cut him loose.” he said. Mommy long legs raised an eyebrow but complied. Once he was fully lowered he used his pocket knife to cut the straps off. He landed on the ground with a squeak before trying to stand only to fall onto his back. Bf simply picked him up and set his two legs over his shoulders. “Keep the train code as a grand prize mommy, I mean I got to beat the other two games to get the code anyway.” he said as the catwalk out of the room rose up. Mommy simply nodded and left a confused look on her face. The moment he stepped on the catwalk it broke.

“Well that's a no go.” he said looking around, spotting a vent. “Well time to vent” he said with a smirk. As he crawled through the vents Bunzo whimpered. The vent led to a room filled with large shelves. Bunzo immediately jumped off bf and went to explore he got near a shelf and saw a note taped to the support.

Reason for rejection: Extremely negative reception from various focus groups.
In red pen it said 𝘞𝘩𝘰𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳'𝘴 𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘢 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘢𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘥. - 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵

Bf let out a giggle before going to look for Bunzo .A startled squeak led him to Bunzo who was running from a Daisy toy .It was about his height give or take. It stepped back in what he could only assume was fear. “hey , hey ,hey. It's okay, I'm a friend you can trust me” he said in a reassuring tone. The toy seems to hesitate before walking forward to test the waters so to speak. Satisfied that the duo was no threat, it made some sort of chirp. 6 toys came out from under the shelves. 2 brons ,a yellow and blue boogie bot, a candy cat, and a Catbee. They look at Bf and Bunzo for a bit. “ Who are you?” the yellow boogie bot asked. Bf scanned the toys, the most injured was a Bron, chunks of plastic were removed and the eyes were sunken in. “uh im Boyfriend” he said feeling out of place. They all shared glances. “Is that really your name?” the Catbee said. Bf nodded . “well, uh want to tag along, im planning to get deeper into the factory” the toys practically cling to him in a cuddle pile. From what he gathered the Catbee goes by Cath ,candy cat is Caleb, the damage Bron is Thomas Clark why do i know that name,the other Bron is tony ,and the yellow and blue Boogie bot are timmy and tommy. He spotted another rejection note.

Rejected item: Barrel o' Huggys

Reason for rejection: Choking Hazard

Children tried to eat from the barrel thinking it was candy.

“That's an oversight since little kids like to put everything they can in their mouth.”

Bf spotted a vhs tape it was cyan, it was labeled Security Camera: Rich. popping it into the CRT it began playing.

"Well, it finally happened. After years of being ignored, the company actually heard all my complaints! Yup, they listened, very carefully, I guess my words really inspired them to take action, because the next day I got demoted down here. To the freaking island of misfit toys!" bf heard Rich break something on the tape. "Why do I talk to myself..?" The toys looked confused since they were missing context.

After a quick puzzle to get a bron statue of a platform that rises and a puzzle to open a shutter door. They entered a room where a metal folding chair was used to stop the door being open and found themselves in the musical memory hallway. Heading up the stairs Poppy was brushing Huggy’s fur. The toy following bf froze for a second but once he casually walked up to the duo they followed. “Oh hey, you're back and you brought a group. Where’d you find them?” Poppy asked. “Well Bunzo was the toy used in Musical memory, while the others were hiding in the island of misfit toys. All the toys looked confused which shocked bf. “You guys never seen Rudolf the red nosed reindeer” they all shook their heads. “My God, there's so many good movies and shows you missed. When we get out I'm playing them all for you.” the toys all seem to perk up at that. Bf headed to the control panel ready to start the next game.

Chapter Text

“Whoa! You did fantastic! Who gave you permission to be this smart? *giggles* Mommy is super proud of you! But I'm sure she's already told you that herself. Our next game is Wack-a-Wuggy! Head downstairs and have fun!” Stella’s voice rang through the intercom once again. Huggy and Bunzo seem concerned . “Are the toys in there alive too?” bf ask and they nod. “I see well in that case” he said walking off. The toys watch him walk to a backroom. When he returns the grabpack hands have pillows tied to them. They all stared at him as he descended the stairs to Wack-a-Wuggy.

Mommy was pacing the observation room waiting for the human to arrive. She didn’t understand him, he worked here that much is clear. But his actions with Bunzo were kind unlike everything they experienced from the other employees. She noticed he walked in and was confused. “Uh what did…” she started to ask but bf answered “oh i tied a pillow to my grabpack hands so it doesn’t hurt the toys… I use a grabpack for this game, not a mallet, right.” he asked back. She simply nodded. “The toys in his game had strings attached so they could be pulled… good luck.” She said, cringing. Why did she feel bad for doing that?

The lights dim and banging from the tubes signal the game has begun. He spun in circles and every time he saw a Huggy he booped him with a pillow sending them back. He repeated the process for about 20 minutes. The lights came on just as every hole’s huggy peaked out. The sudden light startled them causing them to fall out onto the sand. Bf help each one up. “Oh you won, mommy is so proud” she said like she was struggling. “Only one game left then you are free to go… You could stay if you want ""oh well i thank you for the offer this place isn't a home you know” he responded. Mommy sulked off but the shutter didn’t open so he had to go though another vent. The 18 mini Huggies followed him like ducklings.

There was a spiral staircase except it was broken in a lot of places. There was a handle on the ceiling. He shot a hand at the handle and let the Huggies climb the cable up before pulling himself up. They found themselves in a really yellow room with … train tracks? He approached a shutter and saw the lever was on the other side. The shutter on the side with the lever was rising. The figure of… huggy? No that can’t be right, but the shadowy figure has the shape of Huggy. Once it stepped into the light it was pink with eyelashes. “Hey kissy uh hehe can you pull that lever.” Kissy look to bf then the lever then bf again. She attempted to pull the lever but her limp arm slid off. On the second try she did it. She started to leave only glance back once before vanishing from sight. Bf slid under the rising shutter and rushed around the corner but there was nothing. The mini huggies barely entered the shutter hallway. Bf continued looking around finding a blue tape labeled Marcas Brickley Reprimanding (Potential Problem). “Oh hey, Marcas Brickley, he's one of my mates. I go get coffee from his shop everyday.” though why is it labeled a potential problem? He popped the tape in and watched Marcas adjust the lanyard he was wearing when a voice spoke up that made the Huggies hiss at the tv.

"Mind if I film this?" Leith Pierre said, bf audibly groaned at hearing his annoying voice "Oh, not at all sir." not like you got a choice since he is the boss. "That's what I like to hear. So, Marcas, what happened?""You see, I was heading home for the day when my ape arse realized that I left me bloody wallet in the cafeteria. So, I'm running through the lobby...And that's when I see it. A mop handle lodged under the innovation wing gate." "So what'd you do, Marcas?" "Well I just thought I'd nab the bloody yoke and be on me merry way." "And?" "Well, I'm reaching for the thing, and the mop handle jolts on its own. Had me scared stiff. I thought I was the only one there. S-So I took a peek beneath the gate and some massive bloody thing was dodderin' about the bloody hallway!" bf raised an eyebrow at that though he shrugged since the living toys are not new to him now. "Thing? You're sure it wasn't a person?" "Ain't no person that's 50 feet long with a thousand legs." “uhh that sounds like pj the living version at least. "Marcas, you're losing me. Maybe you just saw a bunch of people walking by." oh gaslighting. "Look, it wasn't people! Alright? I haven't a bloody notion what it was but it wasn't human." "Hmm...Who have you told about this? Besides me, obviously." "Just you, sir. Obviously." "OK, I'll have security skim the cameras and take a look." "What?! There's a massive bloody... Monster! Skimming ain't going to get rid of it!" "You're out of line, Marcas. We make toys, not monsters. Now come on, get out of my sight. Actually uh, grab me a coffee will you? Actually never mind, get out of my sight." “prick” bf muttered. Before doing a puzzle to push a cart named Barry into a bunch of wooden planks. Once Barry smashed through and fell down a pit the squad found themselves in the hall to Wack-A-Wuggy. Once up the stairs he noticed the smaller toys, except Poppy and Thomas, were playing on some playground equipment.

“Wow you did it again, i thought the mini Huggies were feral.” Poppy said and earned a growl from Huggy. “ I thought they were just gonna leave them, not kill them.” Bf sits down on the steps for the train platform. He noticed Huggy was looking at a kissy missy cutout with a sad look on his face ‘or as much as you can with a permanent smile’ he missed her didn’t he. “Uh i saw her, kissy” huggy turned to face bf. “She uh left before I could get past a shutter.” huggy visibly deflated at that. “Hey uh dont worry im sure she’s fine and I have no doubt we’ll see her again.” Huggy smile widened as he pulled bf into a hug followed by the mini huggies creating a dogpile cuddle mound. Boyfriend let out a muffled “bap” in response.

Chapter Text

“Geez! Have you played these before? You're so good! Seems like you're ready for the final game... Statues! Follow Mommy down the stairs one last time! I hope you had a fun day in the Game Station! See you next time!” the intercom blares one last time. “Well I doubt we’ll be back anytime soon.” bf said under his breath. The door to statues was stuck so he used the grabpack to pry it open. He descended the stairs then had to restore power to another shudder. “ I swear to god if I see another power puzzle I'm going to scream so loud I'll make everyone near me deaf.” bf shouted clearly fed up with this.

Mommy was starting to worry that the human was taking a long time, why did she care , why why why why. He worked here. She knows that so why does she care? Some part of her knows him but where, his reactions to the games says it's his first time but he knows the rules. Where did he work, guess she could ask. The shutter opens and the human staggers in with a pissed expression. “Uh, what happened?” she asked the employee. “Stupid power puzzle” he muttered as he fell to the floor. “Uhh say where did you work here?” she asked. “Oh, I was a playcare counselor.” he replied slowly dusting himself off. No it can’t be… can it “oh well one last uh… game and then you're free. You know the children used to call me mommy cause I was the closest thing they had… but they always had to go back to Playcare and leave mommy.” she said with the saddest voice bf had heard from her. “You know you’re welcome to come with me… uh mommy. Nope, still not used to calling you that.” bf said. Mommy was taken aback by his offer.

Bf was staring at the window waiting for a response from Mommy ,after a bit she nodded her head. He smiled at her but then looked confused as something bumps his shoulder. Bf jumped back when he looked to his right and saw PJ Pug-a-Pillar. “Geez, you startle me. I didn’t know you were there.” PJ simply tilted his in confusion. “Well uh make it to the other side and you win… just touch the collapsed wall to end the game.” Mommy instructed. Once the gate rises and the lights turn off bf spirited out into the obstacle course stopping when the lights come on. He waded though the sea of foam cubes stopping now and again when the lights turned on. He reached 3 tubes labeled with difficulty. “I HAVE AN EGO” he shouted as he dove into the one labeled hard. It wasn’t lying, it was hard but he found a way out and was greeted by another foam pit. He hopped across giant cubes till he reached the rubble on the other side. Once he touched the rumble the lights came on with a sound effect of children's cheers. Pj stop , damn he’s long Marcas wasn’t kidding if anything he was under playing his length. He could count at least 50 segments and he was still coming out of the hard tunnel so who knows how much more there could be. Mommy long legs was gone but there was writing in marker, he spent a good while trying to read it. MEET ME AT GAMESTATION was his best guess. “Well PJ looks like we got to go a different way. Got any ideas?” bf said. Pj looked up to the window closest to them, when bf followed his gaze he saw a handle. “Good boy” he said, giving him some pats. Using his grabpack he propelled himself though the window smashing it to bits and cutting himself lightly. Pj climbed up the wall, his head being the only part that was in the room for now. Looking around he spotted two notes, he picked them up and read them

Procter Name: Sara Abell
Assigned Toy: Candy Cat

Trial 1: Musical Memory
Performance [1-5]: 3
Results: She has a good grasp on the concept and decent performance, but Makayla made mistakes on several of the color patterns. Her posture indicates to me that she was beginning to panic whenever she got a color pattern incorrect.

Trial 2: Whack-A-Wuggy
Performance [1-5]: 3
Results: Makayla had trouble wielding the GrabPack, often unable to accurately fire it at a hole. She reacted quickly whenever she noticed a Huggy Wuggy toy, but was slow to notice them in the first place.

Trial 3: Statues
Performance [1-5]: 1
Results: Makayla is not paying attention, she is screaming and pointing at something else in Statues when nothing is there. Lucky for her, PJ Pug-a-Pillar is so far behind that he can't even be se[en]-

Both notes last word trailed off the second had blood on it. Seriously, what the hell were they doing? Stuffing them into his duffle bag he turned to the hole in the floor. He jumped down it and slid for a bit till he ended up in a room with a huge chasm. Swinging over while Pj climbs the wall to get over the gap. Soon the duo entered a water treatment. There was another note, but this time a feeling in his bones he wasn’t gonna like it. Immediately his eyes caught a name he remembered Marie Payne as he read the paper he started to tear up.

- Transfer Request -
Experiment 1222 - 'Mommy Long-Legs'
Subject - Marie Payne

Abilities:
Mommy Long-Legs has the unique ability to stretch any of her limbs for several hundred feet. This includes her fingers, arms, hair, neck, waist, and legs. She's very hostile towards the staff, but is very motherly and acts warmly towards the other experiments. She is protective of them.

Problem:
The hostility is quickly becoming problematic, but perhaps there is a solution to put her in her place.

Proposal:
Mommy Long-Legs would be perfect for facilitating everything with the children in the Game Station. She has the warmth that a mother should, and any rowdy child can learn to 'listen to their mother.' It makes sense that her seeing these children daily would improve her behavior, and it is very unlikely she will act out in front of the children. Have her transferred to High Security Maintenance immediately. Conditioning can begin.

Are the toys …kids no no no no no no no no no no it can’t be , can it? He pocketed the note and spotted a vhs dark green tape and its player.

"Jimmy, your work as Playtime Co.'s chief marketing officer has skyrocketed the company's profits. How do you do it?" Ah Jimmy head of marketing and one of the biggest asses he has ever met. He was so fucking snotty because he worked in marketing, but in reality he was an idiot who never work and took creadit. "Y'know, it’s not what you'd expect. It's the little things most people don't even think about. Like, take names for example: Surprised people haven't realized this. You take the 'E' sound, slap it onto the end of a name. BOOM” wow he is the biggest dumbass he has ever seen, playtimes second most popular toy was yarnaby, he was friend shaped. "You’re making bank. Huggy, Mommy, even Elliot was doing this way back with Poppy." "I guess I kinda see what-" the interviewer was cut off by Jimmy. "BLUE. Blue is huge. I'm telling you- What's your favorite color, I bet it’s blue. Right? It’s blue?" “ I like purple” bf said out loud for no reason. "It’s green." the man replied to Jimmy. "Ok well, You’re a special case, most people would say blue. But seriously, marketing is not as easy as you think. I mean, I make it look easy. If there is anything Playtime Co. should be known for, it’s not toys. It’s marketing." The tape ended so he stored it with the others. After spending more time than he liked to admit to getting a single Bunzo toy. He wandered around the halls spotting a place to use his grabpack on a handle but it snapped off. He found another note.

Warrenbach Construction Company,

This is Eddie responding once again on behalf of the Playtime Co. toy factory. Yes, it must be in complete secrecy. This project should only be known about by those with the authority at Warrenbach, and those with the authority here at Playtime.
As promised, you will be compensated very well for this secrecy. Upwards of $100,000, keeping in mind that this is a ballpark figure. We're willing to provide the proper equipment needed for excavation; however, the more independently you are able to work, the more compensation I can offer.
We'd still like to see the lab completed in 12 months time, but what's most important is that it's done right. Let me know if these terms work for you, I'm happy to negotiate until we find something that both parties can be happy with.

Take care,
Eddie M. N. Ritterman

Well this keeps getting worse there's a lab. The pit in his stomach is getting worse by the second. He entered a giant grinder in a room. He could have sworn he heard breathing from behind a partially open shutter but he shrugged it off.

Chapter Text

Bf found the lever that opens the shutter to the right of the grinder. Pj went ahead climbing up the walls, his head already out of sight while the rest of his segments followed. As bf climbed the stairs up his foot collided with another tape. It was black with LOG 08502 which means it might be related to the other black tape he found. He popped it in the VCR nearby and leaned back against some railing. "Log Code 08502. In relation: Experiment 1-0-0-6. 'The Prototype. A close call occurred this week, in which he nearly breached containment." Yep this fucker again , I feel like im getting closer to some answers weather I’ll like is a another story. "The Prototype seemingly disassembled the digital alarm clock within his room, and utilized the battery along with several other components to create a laser pointer, which he then fired into the security camera, disabling it. These actions allowed him 28.3 seconds completely unmonitored. Once function returned to the camera, the room appeared to be empty. One surveillance specialist went in to confirm his absence. However, upon opening the door, she realized that the Prototype had hidden in one of the camera's blind spots.” Welp she died. "The Prototype attempted to escape through the open door; however, another surveillance specialist was able to remotely re-lock the door, despite the other specialist still being inside. One casualty occurred." Called it. "The Prototype seems to possess an unprecedented level of intelligence beyond that of all other test subjects, as well as an alarming willingness to commit violence. Further suppression treatments will need to be enacted to ensure that no other experiments develop these qualities." Well you failed at that dumbass. "Experiment 1-1-7-0, 'Huggy Wuggy,' remains the optimal outcome due to his sufficient intelligence paired with maximum obedience. End of log."

Well that tells me that a lot… like everyone who worked here is most likely dead. He continued up the stairs till he reached a balcony that overlooks the game station. There was a control room in the middle so he went to check it out. When he got close he heard mumblings. Once he peak inside he spotted mommy. “Hey , are you good?” bf asked, causing mommy to jump a bit. “Oh uh Mommy is fine, do you need something”

“Uh yeah I have questions.”

“I’m listening”

Sigh “ does the name Marie mean anything to you?”

Mommy long legs stop dead in her tracks.

“Sorry, I just found this transfer request and … I don't know. What im asking is, are you Marie?”

Mommy was shaking a bit fighting back tears. She simply nodded.

Bf cupped the sides of his face and moved them up and down.

“Oh Marie what did they do to you… my little girl.” bf said out loud not intending the last part to be.

Marie perked up at that. “It is you, oh I’m so sorry… I wanted to kill you… i..i..i” The duo burst into sobs for a good 20 minutes.

“Don’t worry Marie, I promise this time I will get you out of this shiiiii… place” bf hold back a swear

“uhhh I’ll start the train, I’m assuming you still want to reach playcare” Marie asked

“Yeah, I refused to leave any of you behind”

With a silent nod Marie left to start the train. Bf spotted two more notes

Give all reports to [MS. STELLA GREYBER] to sort through.

Was Stella involved in some way? No way, right?. Focus just get down there and figure out how to get down and drive a train… damn my life is never boring at least. He found a staircase leading down to the right side of the train. Using the green hand he opened the doors to the cabin. True to her word the code was entered into the control panel. He flipped a switch to open the passenger cars. “Uhhhh please uhhhh enter theeeeee train uhhhhh in a uhhhh orderly fashion please.” His impression of a train conductor got some laughs out of the toys… kids, what should they be called… whatever that's not important. Pj was first in since his body was the longest, he spent a while to make sure his entire body was in, the toys he encountered from the reject room joined him. The other toys settled into the last car. “Uh thanks I'll be pulling out now, uhh stay away from the doors uhh thank you.” With the doors shut he pulled out of the station. “Well you did it, we are one step closer to freeing everyone, by now you got some ideas of what's going on here but first we-” poppy was cut off by an alarm. Shit we are going too fast. Bf pulled the emergency break, but it snapped off like a twig. “Oh okay everyone uh hold on to something. I’m sure you’re all secure as for me, I’M VERY MUCH IN DANGER!” bf shouted into the microphone as the train flew off the tracks. Bf was blown back as the train scraped against the wall, his head hit the back wall hard. His vision blurred as the train came to a stop , the last thing he saw before he passed out was a red sign. PLAYCARE.

Chapter Text

Pico pulled up to the fence blocking people from entering the factory except it was knocked over. As he pulled into the parking lot he spotted bf’s van. He parked his suv and did a quick check list of his gear. Two mac 10s, check. Extra magazines, check. Food and water, check. Darnell was doing the same grabbing a colt 45., 2 lighters, and a plasma cutter. Nene grabbed her 20 knives and hopped out of the car. They entered the welcome desk room and looked around. “Hey , looks like bf left a trail.” darnell said pointing at the NG lettering left in the dust on the ground from bf’s shoes. Darnell headed to the left, finding some sort of security room. He checks the drawers, finding a map of the factory floor, some place called the GAME STATION, and something called Playcare. Pocketing the other two, Darnell found Pico and Nene in the gift shop. “Yo check it, found some maps of this place. “ he said toss the factory floor map to pico. He catches it and goes to clear the counter but stops. There was blood on the counter luckily it was dried so it wasn’t bf’s blood but still. After clearing the counter of boxes, toys, and the cash register he rolled out the map.” okay only one way in to access the rest of the is a shutter behind the welcome desk.” Pico said, nodding to his friends. They had to cut it open so Darnell got to work while Pico and Nene sat on the desk . “sooo P what do you think happened here?” Nene asked while sharpening a knife. “Dunno maybe terrorists, maybe some workers went postal, could be aliens for all I care.” Pico remarked while reloading one of his mac 10s. “Oh come on, aren't you a little curious.”

“Hey i cut a way through, lets go” Darnell shouted. They entered some sort of lobby where a pedestal was but it was empty. Some blocks spelled out Huggy, whatever that is. Pico headed to a power room while Darnell read a plague, Nene was rummaging through some toy boxes. They met back up in the only hallway that was open to them. “So, got any information to share” Nene asked. “Nope , the power room is a dead end.” “All that was written on that sign was info for a toy called Huggy Wuggy creation.” darnell remarked. “Well where to next?” Nene asked.” Uh I guess the room at the end of this hall.” Pico said while looking at the map. The room was really big, too big for no good reason. A poster caught Pico's eye; it was a company poster for adopting an orphan. “I guess it makes sense that a toy company would sponsor an orphanage,kids are the ones who buy their toys.” Darnell said, carefully taking it off the wall. “Actally they had an on site Orphanage, thought i didn't see it on any overhead shots of the company.” Nene said, getting confused glances from the other two. “What, I read up on the place on the way here”

“Huh, that's weird.”

“What's weird, Pico?” Darnell asked.

“Well bf’s trail enters that duct right there” pico pointed at a shut steel door which Darnell started to cut. Soon they were in the ducts following the disturbed dust. Warnings on the wall telling them to turn back, run, and a warning that she is on his side. They came to a part of the conveyor belt that was out of the duct system. They dropped down onto a catwalk and followed it to a huge mural of a red flower. All of their eyes landed on the toys hung up stained with blood. Nene poked one with her knife, some sort of bee cat hybrid, and reeled back in horror as the knife pierced the lifeless feline’s body, coming back with blood. “The fuck, what the shit… I don't … Why is it bleeding.” Nene stammered as pico and looked horrified. One thing was certain Bf wasn’t led back here by something human. With a reload of his gun they descended a large staircase.

Chapter Text

Marie slowly woke up ,her head was spinning (almost literally). After a while she was to stand again and after untangle her limbs from the knots they were in. It took a minute for her to realize she was upside… no, the train car was upside down. She quickly checked on the others. Huggy and Bunzo were mostly okay, just some cuts. The Wuggies were ok but poppy was gone. She pushed against the door till the magnetic lock broke under the pressure, letting her open it completely. She moved everyone out of the car ahead of the train engine. She then retrieves the toys from the first car, laying them away from the wreck. She then tried to remove the rubble that had fallen on top of the engine car to get Bf out. She went to lift up a huge piece of concrete but only parity lifted it up before having to drop it. Even though the bigger bodies had been given strength that was greater than the average human but by herself she was able to. Even if Huggy was awake his arms aren’t made for lifting things. She was trying to think of a way to remove the debris when she saw something coming.

Catnap was taking (what else) a nap inside of Playcare when a loud crash happened, everyone in Playcare must have heard that. On cue all the phone lines started ringing to the Playcare commotion hub in a panic. Switching on the ACCEPTED ALL CALLS button and grabbing the intercom like mic he prepares for the inevitable panic shout coming from all parts of playcare. 

Catnap what happened?

Are they back, have they decided to try and get us again?

Are we safe?

Everyone calm down so catnap can respond… Geez.

Catnap let out a sigh of relief as their leader's voice quieted everyone down.

Thank you dogday, Now im checking the cams for what happened give me a second.

Catnap press the button on the console to switch the camera feed. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Oh wait… what.  

Seems the train that was used to take the kids to the game station crashed. Catnap said into the mic.

Really? I thought it required a code to work.

Yeah me too, pointdexter. Maybe one of the Game Station toys took it for a joyride.

Maybe starship, but i’ll find out what happened for sure so relax everyone.

T-t-thank you kitty.

Well I shouldn't be thankful dear just doing my job. He left the security room and headed up the stairs to the door out of the control room under the statues. One gondola ride later he was in the station the train would stop. Rounding the corner he saw Mommy Long Legs trying to figure out something. She turned to face him and was both relieved and nervous. “Oh uh Catnap guess you heard that heheh.” she let out a sheepish chuckle. “Me and all of Playcare. Why were you driving the train my dear. ” he said as his broken voice box glitch out. “It’s a long story but we don't have time to explain right now.”  “ I know lets get them to the infirmary then we can- ” “ WAIT, there is still someone inside the conductor car.” Catnap looked to the front of the train and saw it was covered in debris from the collapsed ceiling. “Well uh we’ll get them out and fix them up too. ” “yeah about that.” he went to ask but Mommy cut him off. “It's a human.” He was taken back by her. “Mommy i- ” “call me marie now please”

  “you found out your real name? ” 

“No he did.” she said pointing at the train. “Look I know it's strange that I’m trusting a human but he’s different, I promise”.

“Mo- i mean Marie you know we can’t trust humans so lets just- ”

“Please, i can’t lose him again” 

Catnap sigh then nodded. They both grabbed the rubble and lifted it up and moved it out of the way. The first thing that caught his attention was the human’s size. He was short. Then he saw the blue hair causing his throat to dry up. Carefully he picked him up his eyes remain on his face. 

“Boyfriend?”

1986

Bf was setting up some files in his cabinet when he heard a knock on the door.

“Oh Stella, hi whats up?” he said to the young woman

“Boyfriend, apparently there is something happening soon, the kids and counselors are to meet up between the statues and the gondola.”  

Standing there with the kids was kinda hectic since they wouldn’t stay still but it was fine, they are kids after all. Soon a man he didn’t recognize exited the door to the left of the gondola and greeted them. “Hello everyone, my name is Harely Sawyer and I would like to introduce you to  Catnap.” out of the door a purple cat meekly steps into Playcare. To say he was big would be an understatement, if he had to guess at least 14 feet tall. Most of the kids had a look of terror on their faces with one kid on the verge of tears. The staff were utterly confused, Bf noticed the look in Catnap’s eyes; it was a mix of fear and rejection.

“Welcome to Playcare Catnap.” bf said, making his way to the front of the crowd. Catnap tilts his head in curiosity as he lowers himself to his level. Bf slowly put his hand on Catnap's head and scratched behind his ears earning a purr. Most of the kids perk up and slowly approach him now that he’s proven to be docile.

“Urrggh, god my head is pounding. I need to stop falling unconscious ,I need real sleep. “ bf rub the back of his head feeling a bandage on his wound.

“Oh you're awake, good.” a figure said in the dark, glowing white pupils are the only thing he can see . It slowly crept closer revealing its purple fur. 

“Catnap?.” he said as he got closer. The purple kitty crouched down. “ It good to see you friend ”

Chapter Text

Bf stood up and immediately sat back down since he lost a lot of blood from the train crash. Catnap helped bf onto his feet with actual happiness in his eyes. “Geez kitty you look awful, have you been eating okay.” bf asked

“Food isn’t really available anymore, and what we do find we give to the small toys.” catnap said, causing bf to realize how he sounds. He nodded to the cat as he finally started to feel better. He found a cyan colored tape labeled Claire Harper Debrief. Clarie right, she went missing a few years before the mass vanishing of everyone on THAT day. He leaned against Catnap as the tv started up.

"Alright, Ms. Harper, please explain the situation. Spare no detail." a woman’s voice said, bf didn’t recognize it.

"Well, like any night, all the children are getting to sleep. It was peaceful, quiet. CatNap had the red smoke in the room. Then, suddenly, there's this scream. Nightmares happen, I know, but this... I mean, dilated pupils and quivering lips? The way her eyes darted around the room? And I swear, her hand in mine, it felt like her blood was boiling beneath her skin... She saw something too, something horrible! She- I-I'm sorry, I don't mean to..." Claire said, despite the video not showing her face he can clearly imagine how her face must have looked like.

Ms. Harper, we'll provide the very best care we can offer, you have my word. But this is important. Did Marie happen to describe what she saw?" Wait Marie had a nightmare why wasn’t I told about this.

"Yes, a monster she said, said it was...colorless... Gosh, I could feel her poor little heart pounding. For her, it was right there! A-And her movements, they were wild! Arms flailing, legs kicking..." The person who was asking the questions hummed in response.

"I...I wanted to talk to her. See how she's doing. I just... I really need to hear her voice right now."

"That would not be advised, Ms. Harper. There are many concerns we must address at this time. But vitals show normal, and we'll continue to monitor. She'll be okay."

"NO! Well, pardon me if I'm not comforted by that! Just bring my little girl back to me..." with that the tape ended. Stuffing the tape away he took in the room he was in, it was some sort of break room he guessed. Blood was all over the nearby bathroom and some bloodstains littered the room itself. He took note of the lime green batteries, if his memory serves him correct playcare used a lot of these kinds of batteries for some reason. Moving forward with catnap they both jumped at the sound of a phone. After using the green hand to power up a shutter they found the phone that was ringing. Said phone looks more like a kids toy but by this point it's par for the course.
“Hey... Hey, can you hear me?” a child’s voice said. “You mean me kid?” Bf asked “yeah ,you seem a little lost and I don't want you to die- so I'm gonna help you!” the child said. “First off ouch, second you right.” bf responded while rubbing the back of his neck. “You see that electrically locked door, Ready? BUH-BOOM! You can use that battery to open the door!” the door popped open revealing said battery. Inserting it into the slot the door out opens to the train tracks and the now burning wreck. Quickly bf grab a fire extinguisher and put out the fire before the train exploded

“Woah did you do that?” the kid asked. “Well to be honest I never said I knew how to drive a train.” bf joked. “Well, Playcare is straight ahead. It's the home of the Smiling Critters ,there are 8 I think. You may have befriended Catnap but the others probably not be as easy. Playcare is their home and they killed the other intruders, so be careful.” Bf froze for a second. “Intruders?” bf asked and Catnap answered. “Resource Extractors, they tried to make more of us. I know you don't why but let me-” bf cut him off. “I know about the experiments from the documents I'm finding… I don't know all of it but I know some kids from playcare were used.” While surprised, Catnap was revealed he didn’t need to explain.

“Hey kitty, where are the others?” “Marie and the others are at playcare already, they are receiving medical attention.” bf nods as they reach the station. Catnap hops up onto the platform then uses his tail to get bf up.

“Oh, by the way I’m Ollie , well the toy I was made into was Silly Foxy. Talk to you more once you reach playcare, buh-bye.”

“Bye ollie.” when bf said bye the phone hung up.

The turnstile was torn apart by something with large claws, most likely Catnap. On the levers on either side of the gondola was the message The hour of joy. Brushing it off they boarded the tram. “So what have you been doing for the past… 10 years. I think it's been that long, right.”

“Try 20” catnap eyes widen in shock “really?” “yeah, anyway I’ve been… semi good. I mean everyday it seems some psycho wants me dead or I'm facing demons who claim thier a god.” The silence was deafening. “So uh what do you do now, for a job.”

“Well I'm a pretty popular rapper, my style of rap is what made me famous. Oh, I got a girlfriend now so that's good.” “good uh do you know what happened here on That day”

“Well lets see there's child experiment , possible abuse, and slave labor. Add in living toys that have threatened to rip me apart. We got a mass toy uprising that resulted in the massacre of all the employees. Not that I blame you guys.”

Soon the tram entered the playcare, which was pretty clean all things considered. The phone rang and bf picked it up. “Hey it's me again” “yeah Ollie i know who else could it be.” Bf jokingly remarked. “Hehehe right well to get deeper into the factory where most of the toys are and to deal with THEM We’ll need power to the GPZ.” Ollie explains. “Why? Is the generator not working?” Bf asked, confused “we trashed the main generator to stop the Doctor and Him from entering Playcare.” “i’m sending a key to the room underneath the statues” with that bf descended and found a delivery glass tube where a key finished its journey. The key was blue at the top with the company logo on it. He went back up to catnap and showed him the key. “Thats the Gas Production key, why did he give you that” Ollie piped in “there a grabpack 2.0. Grab it, then I'll tell you the rest of the plan. Catnap will show him where it is.” Ollie explained. They headed to the door left of the tram and entered.

The Gas Production zone was way different than the rest of playcare. It was cold and mechanical. “Welcome to the Gas production zone, where the red smoke that I used to use is produced here.”

“Used to?” Bf asked.

“Well some time after the ‘event’ I had dogday remove the red smoke pump inside of me. Now I only emit lavender spray which works similar to the red smoke without the side effects” Catnap explains motioning with his left forepaw.

Bf saw a locker where the new grabpack rested, taking off his old one and setting his duffle bag on the ground. He wore the new version which was heavier. The tape that goes with it shows it has a longer cable, air jets to slow a fall ,and a purple hand. The purple hand can activate jump pads. Putting back on the duffle bag he turn to catnap and nodded to follow.

Chapter Text

Bf and catnap left the Gas Production Zone. The Phone rang again and of course it was Ollie. “Hey, are you near a map of playcare” 

“Uh yeah, making a plan of attack?” bf asked 

“Yeah, basically all the buildings in playcare have backup generators. So if we reroute the power to the room under the statue then we can power the lift down to… the lower levels.” ollie went on to explain.

“I see but much like most things in my life it won’t be easy right?” bf asked with a slightly defeated tone. 

“Yeah because the generators can only be diverted from inside.”  Ollie explain 

“ It gets worse when each building has at least one smiling critter inside.” catnap explained, as he grabbed a marker from a kids backpack. “Bobby and Crafty take care of Home Sweet Home. Kickin made his nest in the toy store. Bubba spends his time in the school’s library with the Delight sisters. Picky lives in the Consular Office. Lastly, Dogday resided in the Playhouse with many little toys." He drew each critter’s pendent by each building. 

Bf nodded “okay so Home Sweet Home would be a good first step, Craftycorn and Bobby Bearhug are sweeties so it shouldn’t  be that bad right?” Catnap nodded in agreement and Ollie hummed in response.

“Okay I'm sending the key ,good luck.” Ollie said and hung up the phone. Bf descended the stairs to retrieve the key. It had a little charm of a house to the ring. He climbed the stairs to Home Sweet Home and unlocked said door and started taking the stairs down. Bf opens a set of double doors which release a flood of red gas that hits him causing him to fall unconscious and fall down the remaining stairs. Catnap rushed to his side checking okay.

Bf walked down a staircase ,about hallway down he noticed the red tint that surrounded him. “Oh shit, red smoke. I'm asleep right now and I'm in a nightmare.” Bf reach the bottom of the stairs and walk forward, soon the 80’s wall paper turns to a monochrome yellow with the ceiling light becoming fluorescent lights. Bf knew where he was and felt his blood drain. Every step he took let out a squelch. Sounds of something that lurks out of view as he runs away, eyes closed. He opened his eyes and found himself in a city street, buildings were falling apart as he frantically looked around for any movement.

“Well,Well,Well, the little rat has come crawling back to me.” A loud voice boomed behind him. A 40 foot tall figure came into view, wearing blue overalls and a red shirt and cap. He had 4 arms with black tentacles sprouting from his back. His eyes weren’t on his face but on the cap ,the pupils are similar to catnaps. Bf knew the freak before him M, a horrifying version of Super Mario but at this point he combined with all his minions to be more powerful. M Pick up a Taxi and toss it at Bf. He dashed into a building but it was a sheer drop  he was falling into a dark pit. He landed on something wet and squishy, reaching around he feels… a mouth? A red light slowly grew brighter revealing he was sitting on top of corpses mostly of him, ripped apart in gorgeous ways or sliced up with a knife. Feeling a need to defend himself he grabs one of his severed arms to use like a baseball bat. He heard something behind him and turned around ready to swing. Someone gave him a kick to the back knocking him onto his chest. Turning around he was met with a huge hunting knife. A red gleam appeared in the dark and slowly the figure stepped out. It wore a blackish purple space suit with a square visor. On his head was a traffic cone. Most people would groan or giggle at anything related to Among Us but given this was the black imposter an entity that roams the game and since he was actually facing him. Rolling out of some of his swings and stabs till he falls into another pit. He was then surrounded by millions of eyes. Unseen forces start to attack bf all at once. Wounds begin to cover his body ranging from claw marks to bullet holes. Just as suddenly as it began it stopped leaving him alone, drowning in darkness. 

A lot of voices all spoke at once. “You face all manner of monsters without showing a hint of fear, yet your biggest nightmare is being all alone. You fight us monsters to make your name known but in the end you’ll be consumed by your demons and fade away from history.” Laughter surrounded him as he broke down into tears. Soon two figures emerge from the dark.

They both looked like him but different in some ways. The first one was really tall, with his clothes torn and tattered. Four wings sprouted from his and his face was covered in shadow with his eyes being visible. It was Yourself, a Bf from another world. The other was a black grey with white glowing eyes, a demon tail was wrapped around a microphone. This was a physical manifestation of Bf soul hence why he calls him soul bf. 

“You know this isn’t real right?” soul said helping bf to his feet. “Yeah I know but that doesn’t change anything. I'm being brought face to face with my demons and psychotic freaks that I barely survived.” Bf said feeling all the wounds covering his body. “ You are cutting yourself short here man. You not only lived to tell, but you mopped the floor with them.” Yourself said. “You always find a way to get ahead of the freaks.” Soul said, pulling his fist back. “So go back out there and keep doing what you do best. KICKING ASS!”

Catnap paced back and forth. It's been half an hour since bf fell unconscious and it was starting to make him worry. Suddenly he stood up but he was still knocked out. He had never seen a victim of the Red Smoke act like this before. Suddenly his right hand balled up into a fist, which made Catnap worry he was going to attack anything around him. Catnap got low ready to pounce on him to restrain him if necessary. Without warning bf punched himself by giving himself an uppercut. The moment his fist connected to his jaw his eyes shot open as he fell to his butt. Bf was coughing heavily, releasing a lot of red vapor from his lungs. 

“Urgh, that sucked. I feel like I'm swimming a black hole. God, my lungs are taking a bath in lava.” bf groans slowly standing up. His eyes were red and he was swaying back and forth still suffering from the gas. “You okay Boyfriend?” Catnap asked, helping him to walk without falling over. “Well I'm traumatized by reliving my past and suffering for a bioweapon. Still better than the time when I faced a demon zombie clown.” bf said, causing Catnap to look at him in pure shock and confusion. “Long story, you’ll find out after we get out of this hellhole called a ‘toy factory’” He said to which Catnap nodded. 

On the wall were pictures of previous orphans , the photos faded with time but still held the vibrant smiles of each kid. Bf took a second to fix a crooked one. Soon they were in the main hub of Home Sweet Home. There were giant children's building blocks, couches turned into forts, posters of many of Playtime.co ’s toys on the walls. The upper two floors had balconies that overlooked the entrance. Fake clouds hang from the ceiling as well as a chandelier with a white crescent moon in the center. Bf felt eyes staring at him. Soon from under one of the pillow forts, a Boogie Bot slowly came out. “Mister Catnap w-w-why are you with him, an employee?” Bf coughs up some more smoke as catnap lets him sit down. “This is an old friend, don’t worry he is nice.” The boogie bot looked at Bf who was looking like death had a child with a blended steak. Bf gave a weak wave before holding his head in his hand. “Whats wrong with him.” the robot asked. 

“Oh uh one of the few red smoke clouds got him, he is still coming back from it. ” Catnap explained while bf threw up a red bile in a garbage can. “Geez, uh I trust you, if you say he is good then he’s good.” as soon as he said that more toys poked their heads out from their hiding places. Bf gave a wave to the growing crowd still with his face in a trash can. After throwing up for a bit, bf finally regained his composure. All the little toys stared at him making him uncomfortable. Bf spotted something hanging in the chandelier and fired a hand at it to knock it free. It smacked him in the face causing him to groan. Most of the small toys laugh at that. Looking at what he knocked loose so he put it on. It was a gas mask colored like Bron, probably to seem less scary. 

“So catnap what's the plan? I find a way to the generator room and you try to find Crafty and Bobby?” bf asked moving the gas mask to the top of his head so he could speak. “Yeah that sounds like a good idea just don’t get caught before I talk to them” and with that the two split up. Catnap climbed up the wall to get to the second floor while bf hopped down a hole filled with red smoke now that he had protection.

Chapter Text

Bf landed on his feet with a light thud. It wasn’t easy to see out the gas mask but he’ll manage. Looking around he spotted a large pull back toy car, pulling the string back and letting go to send it crashing into some boxes. The damage revealed a jump pad so swapping to the purple hand he launched himself up into a laundry room. He used the grabpack to remove a bunch of furniture from the doorway. He notices messages written in blood begging for help, typically when people feel the need to write in blood for help you would run the other way. Luckily Bf knows what they were begging to be saved from. Bf heard something big coming so he ducked into a cupboard and held a hand over his face to quiet his breathing. 

“Bobby can y-y-you please slow down.”A female voice said to who Bf could assume was Bobby Bearhug. 

“Oh, sorry sugar it’s just I’m a little on edge since Catnap left to check out the traincrash.” Bobby said to someone ,maybe crafty? 

“Well we shouldn’t worry Catnap is tough so e-e-even if the Resource Extractors are back he’ll take care of them” The unknown voice said. Bf heard another large set of footsteps approaching. 

“Crafty, Bobby I’m glad I found you.” Catnap said confirming who is out there. 

“Catnap, honey is everything okay you seem nervous” Bobby said in a concerned tone.

“No, there's no danger but uh… have you seen a human by chance?” Catnap asked, trying his best to sound calm.

“A h-h-human, there’s a human in playcare?” Crafty asked,  fear present in every word.

“Yes, but he’s nice. He’s not with Playtime anymore.” Catnap quickly trying to defuse the situation.

“What do you mean ‘not anymore’. Why is a human here to begin with?” Bobby asked in a stern tone. 

“He’s here to help free us, to see actual sky and stars, not artificial ones.” Catnap explain  

“ I’d like that b-b-but do you think he’s trustworthy?” Crafty asked, Bf practically heard her twist her hoof into the floor in concern.

“Yes, in fact if it weren’t for him I probably would still be with the Prototype.” Catnap said a tinge of regret in his voice.

“Okay dear, but if he makes so much as jokes about hurting us, I’ll throw him into the caverns.” Bobby said.

“Okay. BF YOU DON'T HAVE TO SNEAK AROUND ANYMORE IF YOU’RE NEARBY COME OUT.” Catnap shouted out in hopes Bf was nearby. 

Bf pushes open the cupboard doors only to lose his balance and falls onto the floor with a ‘Bap’. All 3 Critters stare at Bf prone form waiting for him to get up. Slowly he came back to his feet and dusted himself off. “Hey ladies I’m Boyfriend.xml. Yes, that's my actual name.” bf said addressing Crafty and Bobby. Bobby is around 11 feet tall and was a little chubby but that makes her perfect for hugs. Her pendant was attached to a pearl necklace that around her neck fluffed. Craftycorn was around 13 feet tall, and her teal hair was tied into a ponytail (funnily enough). Crafty was lanky in appearance but not in an off putting way. Her color wheel flower pendant was attached to an arts n craft friendship necklace made with beads in the shape of the other critters pendants and a friendship bracelet made with blue and red beads. 

“Are you sure he worked here, im pretty sure this is a child Catnap” Bobby said gesturing to Bf.

“It makes sense you don’t remember me Bobby we barely interacted with me before, but Crafty you must remember me right?” bf asked with the same look of someone having the same interaction with an old school buddy. School… crafty thought about it more and more and soon a memory she had almost forgotten. 

1988 october 25

Crafty was in one of the classrooms in the school, specifically the art room. She was the third Critter introduced to playcare in fact she was brought in yesterday. She heard someone moving fast down the halls. Soon the door opened and what seemed to be a new kid entered the room. He seemed to not notice her at first, checking the teacher desk for something. “Hey , please don’t go snooping though the teacher's desk. Why don’t you go play with the other kids” Told him in a reprimanding but not harsh tone. The boy looked at her for a sec, a little shocked he wasn’t alone before laughing. He took a rolling stool and moved over to her ,the stool put him at eye level. 

“Sorry , but I work here, I was sick yesterday so I didn’t know you added. I’m Boyfriend and actually 21-year- old, not a kid.” He removed the Playtime.co lanyard from inside his shirt. Crafty face turned red with embarrassment, she began to apologize profusely. “Nah, it's fine I get mistaken for being a child a lot. Anyway, what are you doing here?” Crafty heard this and started to panic, she was worried she would be punished. 

“Oh , I see, your pendant string broke huh. Hmm, oh I know.” bf said rummaging through the arts and craft stuff, eventually finding a bunch of things used for friendship bracelets. Crafty caught on to what he was doing, taking the supplies from him to get started on making a new necklace. Bf gathered some files on kids who are acting out. Crafty finished her new necklace but had also made two Friendship bracelets one for her and for Bf.

“Why thank you Crafty I’ll wear it everytime im in Playcare, oh here” bf said handing Craftycorn a laminated paper. “What is this for?” “That's for getting into my office, show it to the lady at the front desk and she’ll let you visit me. Whether you have some problems or just want to chat, my door is always open for both you and Catnap.” This surprises Crafty, “Catnap also has this privilege” Crafty asked, twisting her forehooves together. “It’s less a privilege and more of a resource that the Smiling Critters and children of playcare can use if needed, I gave dogday one but he refused saying he didn’t need it.” bf explained putting on his bracelet. “Well if you need me, you know where to find me as for me I got some kids to figure out why they are causing trouble, see ya around Crafty.”

Present day

Crafty nodded yes to Bf’s question “why are you here, it’s not safe for you here.” Bf simply shrugged “well I got a letter telling me my coworkers were alive ,I figured out they probably aren’t based on the blood stain, blockades , and the messages written blood begging for help paint a clear picture of what happened. And I’m always in danger nowadays so this is a slightly above average Friday for me.” bf responded, wiping sweat from where his gas mask was resting on his head. “You know what, I'm taking my hat off. It's hot in here and this gas mask isn’t helping but I need it so bye bye hat." As bf took his hat off he realized he needed to keep it somewhere so he got up on a table and placed his hat on Catnap’s. 

“ boyfriend why’d you-” bf interrupted him "eh i trust you’ll keep it safe any, anyway how does one get into the generator room. The sooner I restore power to the GPZ the sooner I can get ya all out of this shithole.” Bobby seemed uncomfortable by the swearing which he apologized for. 

“Sorry, I'm just used to it. So I need to access the generator. How do I do that?”

“You’ll need to activate the daytime routine on both sides which needs two batteries to power that.” Bobby explains while crafty nods. 

“So I'll take the other side if one of you comes with me I'll appreciate it.” bf said which crafty took up with excitement. Bobby and Catnap left to power this side while Crafty and bf made their way to the other side. 

“So bf do you still have your bracelet” crafty ask. “Nope but it should be in my office since I took it off and left it there when I left playcare at the end of the day.  Oh right before I forget, where is the infirmary”. Bf asked, scratching at his bandage head. “Uh, it's in the playhouse, need new bandages already?” 

“No but the toys I met from the upper levels are probably there because of the train crash that I crashed. In my defence I never said I could drive a train.” bf laughed nervously when they entered a room with a tv. Bf started looking for a tape since when there's a tv usually there is a tape and vice versa. Soon he found the tape in a room he had to crawl to enter, the tape was sickly brown with #1322 Report: void on the label. Coming out from the side room he dusted himself off before inserting the tape. The background image was of what seemed to be a hospital bed.

"Subject is stable, designated #1322. Clear neural abnormalities were detected in his recent check-up. Though highly irregular, we've pulled him from the Home Sweet Home just before lights out to perform-" the scientist's voice said before being interrupted by a child. 

"What are you doing with my friend?" the kid asked.

"I-! What are you doing out of bed? How did you get in here?" the man said clearly caught off guard by the kid’s presence.

"Is Kevin sick? Why did you take him away?" bf immediately recognized the name. Kevin was one kid he saw the most because he had violent mood swings. Kevin was a good kid just couldn’t control his emotions. 

"I-I... Yes... Kevin is very sick. Very, very sick. But we want to make him better. But he can only get better if we take him to where we can provide proper care, and give him proper rest." bf clench his fist without realizing it. 

"Will... D-Do you really think he will be okay?" the child asked again. 

"I should think so. We're good at what we do, son. We paid attention in school, learned, and got our proper rest when we needed it. Just like you need it now, I should think. Come now, let's get you on back to bed." “wow they taught you to be a massive fucking psychopath. Remind me to shut that school down geez.” bf commented on the tape fighting the urge to punch the tv screen. 

"O-Okay." the kid responded with.

"It's been a pleasure meeting you, Joseph. And I promise you, your friend will be alright. When you see him again, he'll have never been better." with that the tape ended.

“I remember Kevin Barnes , Joseph I don't. Unfortunately I only got the kids who were ‘trouble’ and tried to ‘fix them’. I hope he was adopted.” bf said using air quotes. Crafty nodded and they took the stairs to the second floor. The bunk beds the orphan used to use were now occupied by a whole slew of toys, ranging from Catbees to Boxy boo. They all turned their heads to Boyfriend who immediately felt uncomfortable but nobody said anything as he quickly walked out of there. In a cubby he spotted a green tape labeled Samuel Lee’s last day. Looking around he found the tv around the corner bracing himself for the worst. The tape started off with what sounded like screaming but it's more likely kids playing. 

"Ah, and here they all are." said a male voice that bf didn’t recognize.

"Well of course, they'd never miss this!" said a voice he did know something Brooks

"Who is it, Ms. Brooks? Who's going away?"  a kid said

"Tell us! Tell us!" said another kid

After calming down the kids ms.Brooks continues.  "This week, Dr. White here has selected our very own Samuel Lee!" bf face drop at that. Is this how they were able to take kids out of playcare without any suspicion? 

Suddenly the tape glitch out and it was about something else. 

“I’m telling you for the last time Sawyer, Boyfriend will not be a part of the Bigger Bodies Initiative.”

“Why not Stella, you said it yourself, the kids look up to him and he likes to help in any way he can so he will be a great help in the future we are building.”

“Because like me he cares for the kids and if he finds out… i dont know what he would do if he finds out but for certain he will try to get the truth out.” 

“Stella i’d like you to at least consider what Harley is asking, Please” 

“No I won't, I know him. You know what, I quit.”

Suddenly a loud crash was heard.

“Damnit Sawyer, why didn’t you take no as answer now we got to do something with her now.”

“Well at least we got a new test subject, and we got some new designs courtesy of Boyfriend.”

“Well these new critters designs are good so at least some good comes from this mess, maybe we could turn Rowan into one of them.” 

“Well i got some new ideas, time to bring the frowning critters to life.”

Wait, they experimented on Stella and she is one of my doodles I did for fun. 

Crafty came around the bend. “Sorry, I had to explain to the little ones who you are. Are you okay?”

Chapter Text

Crafty noticed bf’s expression , he was staring blankly at the tv in front of him. “Im not fine but it is not important right now, let's just get these batteries and then start the day routine.” he stuff the tape into his bag and moving on. In a room filled with bunk beds a Bobby Bearhug statue followed his movements. Bf never seen this before might be a precaution to make sure kids don’t sneak out of bed, still it's creepy as all hell tho. Suddenly the lights in its eyes died down. Crafty comes out from behind holding a battery. Bf nodded as they headed down the stairs. Bf powers up a door using his green hand then jumps back with a scream as something suddenly appears in his face. After the shock he realized it was a mini catnap that was alive.

“Uh sorry sir I didn’t mean to scare you, please don’t hurt me.” the mini catnap said while hanging from their tail which strangely enough is pretty long for a cat but whatever it’s probably made because it's cute. “Uh, do you need help getting down?” bf asked, walking into the room seeing their tail is caught between some books. “You will?”

“Sure just hold on” bf said cupping the cat in one hand while pulling on the tail with the other. Bf freed the Catnap plush. Looking him over he noticed many tears on their body. He set them on the ground before looking around. Suddenly he felt something crawl up his leg all the way to his head. A quick pat on his head confirmed that the catnap plush was now on his head. “So ,little guy got a name?”

“No, all of the minis don’t have names since there’s like 15,000 of us and that's just the amount of catnaps they made.” the mini explains while nestling into his hair. “Bap” bf responded with. “Good lord, that's a lot of names I have to make for you guys.”bf was sweating at the idea. “Well luckily for you most didn’t survive the process or after the hour.” the mini said causing bf to immediately begin to feel depressed at the thought of so many dead kids. Shaking his head he turned to another pull string car and launched it into a stack of wooden crates.

The car crashed into a bedroom which was currently unoccupied. Walking to a storage room he spotted a vent but smelt Poppies emitting from the vent. Putting on his gas mask ready to enter only to remember his little hitchhiker. “So do you have Big Naps immunity to the red smoke?” he asked which he got a yes in response so he ventured into the vents. Once on the other side he noticed that there was a one way mirror into the room where the pull back car crashed. “Honestly I shouldn't be surprised at this but I am.” he said before finding the battery he needed and a note. He couldn’t really see the note in full while wearing the mask but three things stand out, Catnap, Theodore Grambell, Harley Sawyer. Stuffing the note away he made it to the vent exit and removed the mask. Unfortunately some gas had entered his system but not enough to knock him out. He did start to see some mangle corpses of himself but he paid them no mind.

Finding Crafty in the room that needed the batteries he put his in to start up the routine on this side and open the door to the main area. Once there he saw Bobby and Catnap near the stairs ,talking about something. “Okay you guys go on ahead and round up the little toys out of here since I'm about to drain the power.” He said to mostly Catnap. The other big critters nodded and went to round them up. Bf and the mini catnap went to the generator room. While solving yet another kids puzzle powered electric system he spoke to the toy. “So how about I give you a name. How about Saturn?” The catnap seems a little uncomfortable. “Uh I’m a female”. Bf suddenly blushed in embarrassment “so then lets go with Nebula then” Bf responded with trying to save face. “Nebula, I like it” soon he finished the power puzzle and took a lift that took them past the red smoke staircase of sadness. Once he exited the building he was tackled by something big. He couldn't get a look as his face was pushed into the fake grass.

“No ,No, they didn’t do anything wrong, they are actually here to help.” Poppy said as the arm slowly let him go. Looking back he saw a nervous Kissy Missy. “Sorry this place makes her tense... I'm glad that Ollie could help you get this far. He's the reason we found you at all." Bf slowly got up and nodded. Poppy leads them to a small clearing and fiddles with a power box revealing a rising platform. The four of them got on the platform and sat in silence as it rose up. Once the platform stopped they were now above all of playcare. Bf got close to the railing and looked down at Playcare. Boyfriend felt a weird feeling in his chest seeing playcare after 20 years and now knowing what was happening behind the colorful walls. The three toys looked at Bf as he leaned against the railing.

“You know Ludwig and I are pretty similar” he said, not really to anyone in particular. “We both liked to make people smile, that's why I signed up to work in Playcare. Hell, I still do make people laugh with my youtube channel.” he continued despite the fact they had no clue on what Youtube even is. “But to find out I’ve been a cog in a machine built on murder and abuse, it's just a kick to the balls knowing This was under my nose the whole time and I played a part in it all.” bf remains silent for a second. “It kills me inside knowing I could have prevented it if only I knew.”

Bf watched as Catnap, Bobby, and Crafty led a group of 60-ish toys out of the house. “Sorry for ranting guys, I just needed to get that out of my system” he said moving his hair out of his face. He got back on the lift and once again sat in silence with the only noise being bf humming a tune. Soon Poppy spoke up “you know once you gain the other’s trust that won’t be it right?”

“What do you mean?” he asked while petting Nebula. “There are two reasons why we remain here in this cage, one of them is the prototype. The first successful experiment to be made.” She said, causing the other two to shake in fear. “You mean the one the tapes uh what was the number ,1006 I believe?” He said while scratching Nebula's head. “ The very same, he's the reason the other did what they did, you try to leave with the toys he’ll kill you before you reach the front door and in front of them to terrorize them into submission” she said clutching a flashlight.

Once back on the ground Bf scooped up his companion. He noticed Catnap and the others were hiding. “Guys what's going on?” he whispered shouted to them. “Bf the tram had been called back up we believe that Playtime has sent Resource Extractors again.” Bf handed Nebula to Catnap then looked around for a weapon. He settled on a broken piece of a Bron light. Creeping up behind one of the pillars he waited for the car to finish its descent. Once the door opened, he charged in his makeshift club at the ready only to stumble back as he felt himself get shot in the leg. Still holding the club he looked up ready to whack his attacker only for them both to reel back up in shock.

“Pico!?” “Boyfriend?!” The two stared at each for a sec before they both started shouting. “The hell is wrong with you”

Chapter Text

Bf clutches his bleeding leg as Pico holsters his gun. “Bf we need to get you out of here and to the friggin hospital like now.” Pico said, kneeling down next to Bf as Darnell and Nene left the cable car. “No, nope , I can't leave yet there are people to save.” Bf said, trying to stand back only to wince in pain. “Whoa man what the hell is all this, how deep underground is this place.” Darnell said, looking around the immediate area. “Dude, those employees are not here, let's just leave.” Pico responded. “No I know that now but they are not who i was referring to.” Bf said. All 3 of them looked confused, Pico saw something hiding behind the podium in the center. He reached for his gun but bf stopped him. “Bf we aren’t-” “I know but trust me we are in no danger for now.” Darnell and Nene followed Pico's gaze. “Hey buddy it’s okay they aren’t Playtime workers past or present.” Bf called out to the figure before it came out of hiding. The 3 faces went pale as Catnap approached them.

“You okay Bf are you hurt” Catnap’s voice made the others shiver. “Yeah but i’ll be fine, and no they- well two of them are my friends , now I'm unsure where I stand on the relationship chart with her.” Bf said, gesturing to them.

“Well where are you hurt, sugar?” Bobby said, causing the trio to jump at the new voice. “Well I have a 9 mill in my leg but again that's nothing new.” Bf said much to the surprise of the 2 large toys. Soon Nebula waddled up to bf and laid down on his chest which went unnoticed by Darnell and Pico, Nene however.

“OH MY GOD, WHAT A CUTIE. AWW COME HERE LITTLE KITTY” Nene cooed. “Uh, how do I break this to you” Bf said looking a little distressed. Pico and Darnell both caught on to Bf’s sudden uncomfortable looks he had. “Bf why are there living toys both 3 times a person and normal sized.” Darnell asked. “Do you want the long or short version?” he responded to which he got a ”short” so bf took a deep breath.

“So while I was working with the children that resided in Playcare, they were secretly pulling kids out under the guise of ‘medical treatment’ to then turn them into living toys for some reason.” bf said in one breath and the 3 newcomers had a look of pure horror on their faces. “Oh god, I'm sorry I thought you were just some sort of robot.” Nene said, pacing back and forth.

“Well anyway could i have a pair of tweezers” bf asked still on the ground. Bobby looked confused before handing a pair to him. Biting into the strap of his duffle bag he began to remove the bullet lodged in his leg. The pain wasn’t the worse he felt from a gunshot but that’s like saying certain acids do not burn as much. Soon with a groan he removed the bullet and dropped both it and the tweezers onto the ground with no care about the mess.

“Okay now I need some gauze to stuff my new hole, please and thanks.” Once Bobby handed it over he quickly shoveled it into the wound so lessen the bleeding. Bobby then started to warp his leg. Once done he received an adrenaline shot from Darnell allowing him to stand again. “Well I’m going to see what I need to do to get the power from Home to GPZ ,and be back soon.” With that Bf wandered off leaving the trio with the toys and awkward silence. “Sooo , how’d you meet Bf?” Catnap said, trying to make small talk. “Well I have known him since kindergarten. Most kids didn’t want to play with me because of my hair color because it was ‘weird’ and well his hair was weird too so we bonded while playing with our mini skateboards.” As Pico said that Craftycorn and some of the minis poke their heads from behind their hiding spots before slowly coming out. The newcomers were still a little nervous about the whole thing but kept quiet. Soon Bf descended from the building dragging a power cord behind him. Soon bf smirk before going everywhere the cord seeing how far he can stretch it with different results. Pico and Darnell remain stoic while Bobby and Nene were so taken aback by the childish act, Crafty and the minis couldn’t help but laugh. Poppy and Kissy came out from under the statues only to look a little shook to the new arrivals.

“Uh hi there.” Poppy said as the three wave back. Confused Poppy and Kissy follow their gaze to see Bf tangling up the power cord in playground equipment, lamps, and anything else he could wrap around. Once satisfied he went under the statue to plug in the power cord. As soon as he saw the power start transferring he received a call from Ollie. “Hey sorry about the radio silence. I had to get some supplies for safe haven so I didn’t see much. Can you catch me at speed?”

“Well apparently my friends plus one kinda enemy came to get me out of here but then… you know, living toys so I am back on track to the power quest.” bf said as the power cord auto retracted back to Home Sweet Home. “Are they like you ?” Ollie asked. “Pico likes kids despite his tough guy exterior but don’t let him know I told you that.” They both let out a chuckle before bf continued. “Darnell might seem like an unstable pyromaniac and that might be true but he's not a murder. And nene well she is crazy, I don’t really know her well so your guess is as good as mine.” bf said. He heard voices in the background talking about something. He managed to make out ‘Pianosaurus’ which sent a mix of emotions though Bf.

“Well I’m sending you the key to the toy store, Kickin shouldn’t be too bad but there is something else in there but I can’t see them well so be careful.” Ollie warned “okie dokie Ollie Bollie” Bf said which earned some giggles on the other side. Bf took the key and ascended the stairs to see everyone gather around the playhouse. “Hey uh catnap got the key to the store coming?” bf ask.

“Sorry but the ceilings are too low for me and the whole place is too small to traverse effectively. Sorry” catnap responds. “Eh don’t sweat it I’ll just handle it myself. You can chat with my friends while I dance with a chicken.” And with that he turned to enter the store.

“So how well is Bf doing since the factory closed down?” Crafty asked. “Well bf is super rich nowadays ,his music career has really skyrocketed. Actually, I think I have some of his songs saved on my phone. Hold on for a moment. “ Pico said, scrolling though his phone’s songs till he found the ones he wanted to play to them. He started to play the songs ‘Pico, Philly Nice, and Blammed’ which everyone enjoyed. “Wow you both have a good singing voice” Nebula said with other smaller toys nodding along. “Yeah, well those songs aren’t even considered his best work really.” Pico said, accidentally entering his photos and videos. He found a gold mine of Boyfriend’s funniest moments. One photo was bf fighting off a herd of geese followed up by a picture of bf being surrounded by geese as they bite him all over. Everyone got a laugh out of that but they all started laughing hysterically as they saw a video of the aftermath in which bf was hiding in his car geese all on top of the hood staring at him while bf was shaking. They were snapped out of it when they heard voices coming from the toy store.

Chapter Text

Bf Inserted the key to the lock and shoved the toy store’s door open (which was hard as a blockade of shelves and other crap were against the door) to find it in a state of disrepair. Shelves were knocked over, the posters on the walls were torn up, and funnily enough the cash register was ransacked despite the fact there was no actual money in it, just some kind money you find in a board game. Maybe Kickin is using it for a nest, unless what Catnap said was figurative.

He turned on his flashlight since most of the lights were dead. Not even 5 steps in something scurries across the floor in front of him. The flashlight unfortunately flickers so he didn’t get a good look at it but he wasn’t focusing on that instead he was staring at a bunch of toy corpses. Some were hung ,some were impaled, while all were torn apart in various ways. The message “prototype worshipers will not be talorated” is written in blood.

“Uh you guys misspelled ‘tolerated, just saying. Also WHAT THE FACK.” Bf said FUCK wrong since he wasn’t full sure how they would like an intruder swearing in their domain. He heard a giggle from above so he quickly shone his light above him and saw two white eyes at first before the toy fell from the vent with a quiet thud. Once he managed to focus the light on them he realized it was a jumbo size Dogday plush. The jumbo Critters plushies were a limited time plushie series that was made to further milk the Critter brand. Bf turned off the light and gently picked them up by their armpits. Their large toy squirmed in his arms as Bf slowly pulled them into a gentle hug. They soon stop moving and lean into his embrace, letting out a low whimper.

“I know, I know” was all Boyfriend needed and could say to them as they broke into tears. “You never deserved this, god this whole thing is horrible” he continued slowly beginning to cry. Bf continued to soothe them like a baby because well they might have been one for all he knew. Soon they had both calmed, wiping tears off their faces.

“I’m sorry I wish I knew so … so I could have done something because…” bf head started to hurt from the what ifs and maybe of how he could have prevented all of this. Suddenly he heard the sound of more giggles and something else but before he could react a sack was warped around head and he felt himself being lifted off the ground. He heard the jumbo Dogday panic as something happened, thankfully the sounds he made didn’t stop meaning he wasn't killed. Whoever was carrying him they didn't care if got hurt seeing his head hit what he believed to be one of the shelves. He was tossed to the ground and landed on his face but before he could stand his hands were forced behind his back.

“Kickin, we found a human entering the Toy store and he did something to Joseph.” said a male voice that the best comparison was a lighter softer version of Daddy D. “What happened, Daddy?” said what he presumed to be Kickin Chicken “well we aren’t sure one moment he’s normal the next he is crying the hardest we’ve seen in a long time” the unknown voice said. “Well, Joey? What happened? Where are you hurt?” Kickin said and despite that he can't see he can partially feel the glares directed at him. “Well uh I don’t have any ouchies but I don’t know I guess what he said just hit me deep” The Big Dogday who he now knows is Joseph said. Not a second later a firm mighty punch to the gut followed by him getting slammed into a wall. “WHAT DID YOU SAY?! HUH! I BET YOU TOLD HIM HE’LL BE BACK IN A CELL. GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON FOR ME NOT TO RIP YOU APART RIGHT NOW.” the person said.

“Beep bop beep bap” Bf said in a panic hearing then murmuring from a bunch of voices. “Remove the sack. I want to see the bastard’s face before he dies.” Kickin says to which it happens. The sudden bright lights blind him for a sec before his eyes adjust. He sees Kickin staring at him with the cogs in his head working overtime to register where he saw him before. Looking to his right there was Daddy Long Legs which just like Marie that name doesn’t stick right with him. And finally he sees the group they protect, one of each jumbo Smiling Critter and more distressing to him Jumbo Frowning Critters. For a bit no one moved, an uncomfortable silence hung in the air.

“You look familiar and not in the ‘side lane' way. Who are you” Kickin said, getting a little too close to bf. “Well you ding dong I be a little insulated you forgot about, what is it you called me? Oh yeah ‘a blue-haired toddler that had 15 cookies and 20 cups of coffee ready to be a nuisance’.” Bf said in a joking tone and smug look, shocking everyone. Kickin remained still before bursting into laughter that left everyone but Bf confused.

“Aw man , I wasn’t expecting to see you again Boyfriend.” Kickin said before turning to address the others “Don’t worry guys, he's cool.” he said before looking back at the bf to ask “why are you back? Forgot your house keys in your office, you forgot which building was the Consular’s Office?” Kickin joked. “Ha ha ,no, I'm here to reroute the power so I can get deeper into the factory.” bf said as Daddy let go of him after some hesitation.

“So uh how have you been Kickin, I mean it’s 20 years man. you were bright yellow but now you are a moldy mustard color.” bf joked which did get the large poultry bird to snicker before catching what he had said. “Wait, it's been 20 years, damn.” Once Kickin said that everyone else suddenly felt the weight of this. Hushed whispers about their time spent without human interaction for a long time. Joseph, the large Dogday , a large Catnap plush, and a large Catfeine waddle up to Boyfriend which made Daddy growl softly. He must have thought he couldn’t hear him. Bf immediately looked at daddy “what's your problem?”. “You, You are here, I don’t care if it's been 3 years or 50, you should have stayed away. Worst part, you probably killed Mommy , we are better off without you. The only reason you’re alive is because of Kickin,he is who I follow.” daddy said with a scowl. “Mommy is well alive, maybe not mentally sound , but not dead. I’m pretty sure I was the one who was hurt the most in the train crash, I was the only one in the front so…” He said, gesturing to his bandaged head.

“Okay if so where is she? Hmmm” Daddy retorted. “Well probably the infirmity getting patched up” Bf said which made Daddy calm down a bit but was still wary of him fair enough. Joey jumps onto bf knocking him flat on his ass with a “bap”. Bf slowly got up moving joey under his arm like you would with a surf board. Bf spotted a Tape on top of a shelf that was pretty high up for even Catnap. Using the grabpack he knocked it down which landed on a rip up ‘normal’ PJ toy, It was labeled as Proposal and was a simple black color. “I really hope this is like a concept commercial for a rejected toy like Sunni Buddi. I don’t know why they made him look high.” bf said with a giggle, getting a lot of confused looks from everyone except the two large toys. “How does someone look like they're high up?” the large Dogpressed asked innocently. Bf laughed saying “No, high is a term used for smoking weed, it's how a person feels after using weed.”

Bf found a tape player around the bend. The image this time was of a closed Boxy Boo toy or an experiment given everything that has hap[en so far.

"My name is Harley Sawyer. I'm called ‘the Doctor.’ When I look at this company we've built, I do not feel proud." said Harley in a gruff voice. Everyone besides bf either growl or cowered. Pausing the tape bf asked them “he’s the one who started this, right?” which everyone nodded either timidly or with an angry look. He resumes the tape. "Declining profits, failed experiments, people are constantly seeing things they shouldn't. How is that anything less than complete failure on our part? It's pathetic." Harley continued. “What does he mean by ‘seeing things they shouldn’t’ if this is how this started then what… wait did Eliot somehow do the whole living toy thing first when his daughter died and made poppy, meaning they try to make lighting strike twice.” bf muttered. “I bet Eliot was hoping this could be used for ill people but it got twisted by fucking money hungry bastards” bf said aloud before resuming.

"Now we're understaffed, safety protocols are being abandoned, workplace incidents are common. We can't avoid a lawsuit forever. We need to deal with all of these issues at once. I'm here now with a solution.” bf knew exactly where he was going "The Bigger Bodies Initiative. Giant toys. We can increase our workforce and simultaneously decrease the number of lawsuits and people on our payroll if the people we have working aren't people." “Cool one problem ,they are people. What you think orphans are less than human fucko. God if you’re still alive I would sic my girlfriend on you.” Everyone was unsure how that was a threat. "Put me in charge of it, and I will save this company." the screen glitch before text appeared. “You started to learn how this company's good hearted origins were ruined by THEM, Save us Boyfriend, Save us Boyfriend,Save us Boyfriend,Save us Boyfriend!” the tape clattered to the floor. “Well that’s scarier than anything I've seen so far in the factory.” bf looked back everyone was staring at him. “Well I’m used to pressure.” bf joked.

Chapter Text

Bf was walking out of the toy store with a total of 18 living toys in tow, they stopped when they spotted the three humans. Soon they noticed how causal the toys that were with them and calmed down , if a little suspicious of them. Bf was already dragging the cord to the room under the statues. “So who are you 3?” Kickin asked. “Well I’m Pico, the asian chick is Nene, and the black dude is Darnell”

“Hiya”

“Sup”

The new toy group were still unsure about them but then bf came back. “So Ollie gave me the key to the Consular Office but I'm tired so I think I’ll just take a nap that's not from gas or head trauma.” Bf said rubbing his head wound.

“What no you need keep going” Poppy nearly shouted at him.

“Why, what's the rush?” Pico asked, giving her a look.

“Because, because… I left safe haven, Doey might be able to keep them safe for a while but they get overwhelmed easily. “ she said, avoiding looking at Pico.

“Wait they made a living Doey, how in the Fuck did they do that he is basically a t-1000 form terminator.” Bf was genuinely shocked. Bf noticed his human friends confused looks and even some of the smaller toys were confused. “Doey was Playtime’s version of playdough except it’s an actual character, you would be able to make him into anything you want. In fact I helped in the design of his personality. Uh, think of a rubberhose cartoon with a Baymax like attitude.” bf help explain which the minis were confused on the personality part.

“Anyway, are they in immediate danger,man?” Darnell asked.

“Kinda, The Doctor is down there and he's been trying to get into safe haven, he can’t force the doors open because it's on a separate system then the rest of the factory.” Poppy explained.

Bf suddenly felt sick to his stomach. “Harley Sawyer?” he asked with a concerned look. Poppy nodded then went to ask how he knows him when tells her “I just saw a tape about him. Seems like a cocky SOB.” All the toys got a laugh out of that.

“Anyho, my points still stand. I need rest or else I'll screw up ,okay?” Bf said not even waiting for a response as he snuggled up to Catnap, using him as a pillow (not like he mind). Catnap’s tail curled around him protectively. All Poppy could do was grumble to herself.

“So can we continue asking you guys questions?” Crafty asked. “Sure man fire away” Darnell said. “How did you get that scar Pico?” Catnap asked Pico, causing him to look down at the faded scar across his belly. Pico sighs, rubbing the bridge of his nose before saying “that scar is connected to something that haunts all 4 of us.” Everyone else raises an eyebrow (mostly metaphorical) at that. Pico was rubbing the top of his gun, Darnell was flicking his lighter on and off while Nene was gripping the blade so tight it was drawing blood. Boyfriend was fast asleep and lightly snoring.

“Even bf?” Crafty asked. “ Yeah, I’m willing to tell you what happened but fair warning it is really horrible so I suggest the toys who don’t like gruesome detail go hang out elsewhere.” Pico said gesturing over at the school playground. Most of the smaller toys did although some needed to be told by the larger toys to leave. The only mini’s that stayed was Nebula and Joey since bf show them kindness they want to know more about them.

“Okay. On April 30th 1989, it seemed like a normal school day but then Cassandra started to go on about… something the details on what she said are a little fuzzy. Next thing I knew there was gunfire and everyone else in the classroom was dead.” Pico started to shiver while the toys were speechless. “She wasn’t the only one, a kid we called Cyclops was a real jerk and when faced with danger actually peed his in fear . Then there's Alucard, good god Alucard, that poor bastard was experimented on as a child by his father, he didn’t have any friends after this and so was subject to manipulation by Cassandra to join her. Then finally there's Hanzo, a crazy weeb with a sword that cut me deep.” As Pico continues to explain, the toys’ mouths remain open in horror. “ I found one of their spare guns and used it against them ,I injured Cyclops by shooting him in his one good eye then sentence to life in prison, Alucard was shot in the side and went to prison for 10 years. I gave him a second chance since he didn’t actually hurt anyone except me. Hanzo is dead. Somehow I decapitated him by shooting him, as for Cassandra after our battle she vanished.” Pico finished explaining.

“I was in the hospital at the time, I developed cancer and I thought for sure I was gonna die, when news of what happened reached me I was even more depressed than before. I started messing with fire as a way to coop. With fire I’m in control” Darnell said while staring at the flame coming from his lighter.

Nene quivered a bit before speaking “I was there that day but I didn’t do anything. I-I- I couldn’t do anything I… wanted to die, the bloodshed, the screams, and gunshots haunt me still.” Suddenly she felt Pico take the knife, confused she looked at her left arm noticing the many deep cuts she craved on herself. “Sorry” was all she could mutter while Bobby cleaned and dressed her wounds.

“Bf was there too. Once bullets started flying he hid in his locker, when the cops found him he was crying and threw up a few times.” Pico explains while Bf shifts a bit to nuzzle deeper into Catnap’s fur. “Afterwards he dropped out of school and I didn’t see him until 15 years later. I guess after he quit school he started working here, he always wanted to be the reason for someone’s smile.” Pico finished with a sigh. “We all suffer from that tragedy, I’ve got insomnia and I’m paranoid that the moment I’m unarmed, I’ll be attacked by something.”

There was a long pause of silence before Pico spoke up. “Anyway did I mention bf’s and mine Youtube channels?”. “What’s Youtube?” asked Jospeth. “Oh ,it’s a website where people can post videos for a bunch of people to watch for fun. We have two channels, one is where we mess around doing random things like rating baby things or wearing weirdly sexual costumes. Our other channel is where we play video games and joke around. I’m usually calm while Bf rages.” Pico went on with his explanation but was interrupted by Catnap.

“Wait, you want me to believe that Boyfriend, this loveable goofball snuggling up against me, gets angry often?” Catnap asked, unsure about Pico’s claim. “Yeah he does and I have some audio saved of his meltdowns.” Pico pulled out his phone and searched though for some of the audio till he found one.

They heard Bf stutter a bit before he started shouting “Oh Come On! YOU SAW ME SHOOT THE GREEN UP AT THE GUY. YOU SAW IT, AND HE DID A LITTLE BLUBLUABLUB AND FLEW AWAY INTO ANOTHER DIMENSION OR WHEREVER THE FUCK HE GOES. HE CAN GO BACK TO HIS MOM’S HOUSE FOR ALL I CARE. GO BACK TO HIS ROOM AND GO ‘why’d you change my room you knew I was coming back’ AND SHE LIKE ‘I needed a guest room for when aunts and uncles come over’ AND HE’S LIKE ‘YOU LOVE THEM MORE THAN YOU LOVE ME’.” the clip ended with Pico laughing hysterically. To say the toys were shocked would be an understatement, until Kickin started laughing causing the other to laugh too. They spent the next hour listening to more Bf’s angry outbursts.

Chapter Text

It has been an hour and a half before bf started to wake up, a yawn escaped his mouth as he stretched. “Well, I hope you had a good nap friend?” Catnap asked Bf. “Yep, I feel better and I have a plan.” bf said with a smirk. “Is that so, mind sharing with us?” bf shook his head “nope, I want to focus on rerouting the power but once we get everyone together we will begin my plan fully, m’kay.”

Catnap didn’t like not knowing but he trusted bf so nodded in agreement. “Hey, Pico, can you take out any cameras you see, Darnell, I need you to disable any listening devices that might be active. I doubt Playtime wouldn’t keep tabs on what the kids are saying so to be sure look around for those, Nene I need you to check out any of the entrances and exits to playcare I don’t want any unwanted ‘Guests’, and don’t kill them please.” bf barked out orders to his friend and they nodded. “And if any of you would help him with that, that would be a big help.” bf turned to address the toys and after some hesitation they nodded, with Kickin going with Pico, Daddy Long Legs leaving with Darnell, and Nene follows Bobby.  Bf retrieves the key to the Office and heads off with catnap.

Nene

Nene and Bobby were checking out playcare’s employee entrance ,which was basically a plastic tube that was held up by steel wires that lead up to the factory floor. The tube forced Bobby to bend forward so she could travel up the stairway. Bobby decided to cut the silence “so I want your honest opinion, what do you think of Bf?” Nene stops walking and looks at the bear, who looks quite comical in the stairs. Suppressing her laughter she sighed” honestly? I think he’s a cocky, annoying, moron with the body and mind of a 4th grader. He’s stubborn , overconfident and way too cheery.” Bobby’s body tense up a bit before Nene continues “ but, as I’m starting to see, he's kind, brave, and able to think on his feet. I mean the fucker managed to faced mutiple godlike beings and is still around today. He has seen horrifying monsters and creatures but still wears a genuine smile and doesn’t let that damper his personality at all.  So yeah, I may not like him all that much but I respect him.”

Bobby was stunned for a second but nodded understanding her point. “You said he battled gods? If true then, he really is an angel, one to free us all.” “hmmm angel isn’t the word I’d describe him as, though that may just be because he fractured almost every bone in my head with his mic.” Nene lifts her head to show the bottom of her jaw which is just a deep purple. “Eh i guess i deserve it, I was throwing knives at him.” Nene simply shrugs as they reach the end of the major osha and enter a large stairwell they were close to the bottom. There was a door a bit lower label Shelf Access. Nene noticed that the door required a keycard to open ,next to it was a poster of an orange dog in a police outfit being denied access to a firehouse. The text read remember to stay in your zone the smaller text reads playtime.co recommends you stay in your department and not to wander in unauthorized areas or you may be fired. 

Nene looked to Bobby for an answer “the shelf was the name for the prison where they kept most of the experiments." Nene caught the reference to the fact it was called that because they were stock like store products. Reaching the top of the staircase they find a door that was hastily barricaded with chairs. Once they move them and open the door Nene realizes they are in the hallway that was near the main entrance. 

Darnell
Darnell was led to the control room by Daddy Long Legs. He started to check the system of playcare and sure enough there were audio listening devices and cameras almost everywhere, strangely he couldn’t shut them off with the computer console but he could access other systems meaning someone was actively stopping him. “So, you're gonna play like that well, I like to play rough, so get ready asshole ” Darnell said with a chuckle. He pulled up the schematics for the place and looked for a power box for the mics. He soon realized that the camera system was on top of playcare so that's a no go but the mic system was in the room right next to him. Examining the room it was concrete with nothing flammable besides the piece of machinery that he aims to break.

“Hey daddy… I can’t believe I said that. Anyway, gather everything that can burn that you can find and pile it against the power box so I can set it on fire and shut off all the listening devices.” Daddy started grabbing and piling up things such as office chairs, posters, normal toys, and some cardboard cuts. Darnell found a jerry can, popping the cap off and taking a whiff confirming it’s gas. He starts to pour it all over the machine and the pile which confuses daddy. “If you are trying to start a fire, why are you pouring water?” he asked, taking off his hat. “Oh this is gasoline and it’s highly flammable. I recommend you stand back.” Darnell grabbed a piece of paper and quickly read it to see if it’s important, it just talked about how the red smoke is flammable.  Crumbling up the paper into a torch like shape and using one of his lighters to light it up. He chucked it into the room and slammed the door shut. Almost immediately the pile burst into flames and smoke became trapped in the room unable to escape. A voice was heard over the intercom in the room and simply said "pyromaniac little hooligan”. “Yeah well fuck you too bitch” Darnell was seething a bit but deiced to flip the camera off and hopefully piss off whoever was watching. 

Pico

Pico was debating on how he could take out the cameras by not wasting all his ammo when he heard his walkie talkie crackle to life “Pico can you hear me” Darnell’s gargled voice emitted from the hand held radio. 

 “Yep what’s up.”
 “i managed to find out where the cameras power box is”
 “okay where is it?” 
“On top of the dome.” darnell draw out the words to illustrate the point 
“Oh gad demn it” Pico said in a goofy tone which amused the smaller toy to laugh.

After debating for a bit he got an idea. “Hey reverse smokey, can you direct where on the roof it is?” Kickin, who was confused as to what he was about to do, raised a metaphoric eyebrow.  Darnell started directing pico to the general area where the box was. He used a laser sight to help him aim. Once he had found the general area he shouted for everyone to clear out before he began firing. Once he knew the area was clear he unloaded an entire magazine into the roof. The sound of sparking electronics and groaning metal was heard before a loud crack echo as the whole power box fell into a small pool. Looking at a camera on the consular office lights turn off and it looks down. Pico’s gun barrel was smoking which he cooled down by twirling it  around his finger. All the toys started clapping with them saying things like “woah did you see that”, “he’s cool”, and “do you think Kickin could do that”. Soon the trio had reunited and now just was waiting for Bf to finish up.

Bf

Boyfriend entered the office first with Catnap following close behind him. “Hey Catnap , what other bigger bodies toys are in playcare besides the smiling critters of course.” bf notice some kid drawings pinned to a corkboard, most were of the smiling critters while the other were of toys like huggy or kissy. One drawing was on the ground so he picked it up. It was of a stick child sitting on a bed with a claw hand coming from under the bed. The kid claims it was his friend, now that he thinks about it isn’t that prototype’s hand. Why is he interacting with a kid, he doesn’t really seem the type to like kids. The art was signed on the bottom with Theo. He folded the paper and stored it in his bag. Theo, Theo, Theo, which one was he? Not the kid who played rough that was Kevin.  Oh right he was the one who snuck around in the offices after hours. Did the prototype tell him to do it, if so why? Catnap shook him slightly. 

“Sorry, was just thinking about some things ,you were saying?” bf said, rubbing the back of his head. “Anyway some toys from the upper and lower levels travel to playcare for shelter, most small but there are a few larger ones. Boxy, cat-bee, Luke meowluck, and Boogie Bot.” catnap said with a gesture of his paw. “Luke meowluck? God damn it.” bf groaned. “What, what’s wrong with Luke? I quite like him.” catnap inquired. 

“It’s not Luke it’s the fact he’s my design for an april fool’s day critter. Pierre and Harely stole my sketch book and used my designs I never intended to be real for their sick experiments.” bf said pure vitriol laced every word. Catnap rubs up against him and begins to purr, calming him down. “Thanks bud.” soon bf found yet another tape, this one dark gray and label 8/8/95 Emergency Alert. It didn’t take a genius to figure out what it was about ,into the bag it goes. He heard something around the bend so he picked up a shattered piece of glass. He uses it to look around the corner. The figure is similar to Catnap except it is more of a dirty purple for most of his body with faded light blue for his paws, the tip of the tail, and tips of the ears. The inner of his ears were bright green, his pendant is of a shamrock.

Bf motion for Catnap to talk to Luke which he nodded. Once Catnap was around the corner they began to converse. Before he knew it a red clawed hand grabbed his arm and started to drag him into a vent. Bf was almost inside when he acted on impulse and licked the hand in hope it would let go which it did with a disgusted groan. The texture was similar to that of a coconut, but tasted like an old leather briefcase that was left outside. Catnap and Luke came around the corner to see Bf flat on his back with objects stuck in him ranging from glass shards to broken pieces of wood. “Really? this is our savior?” Luke asked with a confused tone.

Chapter Text

Bf woke up in a black void… again. “Oh god damn it, AGAIN. This is not funny.” Bf moved his hair out of his face. He notices himself standing off in the distance. He slowly approaches feeling a bit of fear building up in his mind. He taps the other him on the shoulder. His eyes widened as the other him’s top half fell to the ground with a wet splat ,the only part still attached was his intestines. It seemed like a clean cut, before he could react the other him spoke. “Aw man not again, I need to get the staple treatment. Hey bf who knocked me over , mind setting me back on my legs please.” Bf froze for a sec before helping the other him. “Sorry it just… who or what are you?” Bf tone clearly marked confusion. “Oh you’re the living bf. I was you but then that killer robot with that sawblade arm happened and well we died.” the other him said , holding onto the insides of his pockets to prevent coming apart again. 

“Okay but still don't explain… this.” bf gestured to the void around them when two more bf appeared, one’s head was cut off which was on the handle of a sword that was stabbed into the rest of his body. The other bf had an axe embedded in his head to the point that the head of the axe is barely visible. “When you die two versions are created, one bears the pain and death while you continue on.” The human kebab said. More bf started to appear each an death he can remember experiencing. The head bf which had a spike pierced his heart, approached him. “Hi uh me? Is that the right term? Any way we each go by the name of the song we die in. So I’m All Stars, the one with the axe in his head is Antagonized, the shish kebab is No Hope, and the one cut in half is Obliterated.”

“Okay so you were killed by Ultra M, Spiecemin 14, Devil Mario, and KB right?” The main bf asks. The other bfs nodded. “So what crap did we get into this time?” All Stars asked.  Bf began to recount the events of the past few hours, at least he hopes it's been hours. Pretty much all the Bfs faced went pale when he got to the whole ‘Orphans being used to make living toys’ thing. Suddenly a Bf appeared and he was wearing a Grabpack, it became clear cause of death was a jagged piece of glass that was driven deep into the back of his skull. The living Bf started to feel himself fading away, which was similar to the feeling of cutting off the blood flow. 

“Seems like he is being revived soon, IHY go with him and help out however you can since you are the least damaged in a sense.” All Stars explained. IHY bf was him dressed up like Mario from Super Mario World with the main difference being the fact his skin is melting off the bone. He let out a raspy wheezy noise that sounded like yes. Bf starts to feel heavy and weak. Before he could pass out, IHY grabbed his arm which meant he felt his warm boney fingers. 

Bf slowly rose up from the floor groaning softly. Feeling the back of his head, he finds a cut that was almost healed, amazing how fast even fatal wounds heal, thank god he’s dating a demon. One quick glance he notices two things, one he was in the break room in the office, two IHY wasn’t the only Bf that followed him, No Hope was there too looking a little bewilleder. Before anyone could speak they heard something. “Crying” IHY said, his voice sounding worse than Catnap’s. Not skipping a beat, he went to the door where he heard Luke comforting Catnap by saying things like ‘it’s not your fault’ and ‘he would want us to continue onward’ which was true. Bf open the door and saw Catnap in the fetal position with Luke patting his back.

When the door creaked open both critters' eyes widened as they saw a dead man walk though. “Bf how are you… alive?” Catnap asked while hugging him tightly. “Well to make a long story short i did die but i don’t really stay dead.” bf added a nervous chuckle at the end. Both large cats were still confused so bf started to explain. “You see, when you've been blessed by both angels and a nice demon, you tend to disagree with dying,” he let out another laugh. Catnap looked like a fish with his mouth hanging open in shock. Luke then notices the two dead Bf watching through the door though Catnap didn’t seem to see them.

“Damn brats.” Harley shouts in frustration while slamming his metal fist down on the steel table denting it. The sound of something mechanical echoed through the lab. “wHat seems to Be tHe Problem Doctor” An unholy mismash of people’s voices came out of the dark. The Harbot turned to face the Prototype, which was little more than a massive middle finger to nature being a mess of metal and organic parts, none of which were his besides his old human body. “We got some unwanted guests in the factory,” he replied in a cold manner. “Well, HuGgy CAn Handle theM.” the sound of spiced together words would be enough to make most shudders but not Sawyer. “About that” Harley pulled up footage of Huggy and Mommy co-operating with a human. The prototype got real close to the screen analyzing Bf closely. He was strange, his small size, the color of his hair, and more importantly that stupid fucking grin on his face. He had the look of most of the humans he had seen. A distorted snarl emitted from the prototype.

“WHy Is HE HeRe?” the doctor drone groaned. “After some digging I found out he did work here, Playcare specifically” the prototype face remains still, mainly because he has no feeling in his old body. “Seems someone sent a letter to this ‘Boyfriend’ and he decided to come back to find his coworkers and then his friends came to find him. So we got four humans inside your domain” as much as Harley despises 1006 he knows better than to mock or taunt him at least now that they are on the level, for now. “WhEre ArE TheY NoW?” Harley groaned before responding “Playcare and before you ask no I don’t have eyes on them, Bastards destroyed the camera and mics.” The prototype remained silent for a while. “You may have him Sawyer” this one was a recording of a conversation he had with Leith about operating on Yarnaby. Sawyer acknowledged him with a nod. Sawyer was happy to make a new experiment ,1450.  

Chapter Text

Dogday was swamped with so much stuff that had just suddenly happened in a day. First was the train crashing, then some of the upper level toys came to the playhouse door needing medical help, now the buildings were generators power was being redirected somewhere else. His brows flared in frustration as his mind jumped to conclusions. ‘What if playtime sent more resource extractors’ ,‘did the prototype finally strike’ one thing that was certain was he’s going to find out now. Grabbing a fire axe that was on the wall ,he told the bigger body Bron to watch over the injuries and mini’s. With a salute, Bron went to check on those in the makeshift medical ward. 

Dogday spent two hours trying to find a way to the exit since the playhouse was made for kids and one certain adult. He shook off the lingering memories as he got closer to the doors. Peaking out the door he saw a human sitting down on the prop treasure chest that kids would deposit ‘Play tokens’ to be given a pass to use the pool in the playhouse. He wasn’t wearing anything with playtime’s logo on it though he could only see his back. The human was decently healthy and fit. He then noticed the two guns in his back pockets, so he dragged him into the dark.

Pico groaned as he sat up. What happened? I go off for smoke and get kidnapped, not unlike my average day. heh gottem. He realized that he was in a cell. Pico reached for one of his Mac 10s but realized they were gone. Panic started to travel though his body as his mind kept screaming at him that he was in danger but this time it was right. Pico then notices 2 glowing white rings in the dark. “Hey man, I’m not here to-” Pico was cut off by one of his guns pointed right at him, having him see straight down the barrel. If I get out I need to clean my guns. Pico thought about it when the voice spoke. “So, human, tell me why you’re here. I kinda know how to use one of these.” The voice said, it was smooth and comforting even despite the gun at his head. “Well like I was going to say. I came here to find my friend-” pico was cut off again. “Bullshit, why come back here so late after the…event." The  voice clearly didn’t like to talk about the toy uprising. “Doesn’t matter, sorry but I can't let you hurt anyone.” There was a click followed by a bunch more. Pico realized the problem was no ammo. Pico used all the rounds in the gun on the camera system. Using this moment he threw his whole body weight on the cell door, breaking the weakened metal lock. The figure realized that Pico was free but stopped when Pico's other gun was aimed at him. Pico stood there for a sec before lowering his gun to the ground. 

“I’m not here to hurt you.” Pico said as he heard something behind him. Turning around he saw a little Dogday slowly approaching him but stopped when he was spotted. Pico holsters his gun and crouches down. “ Hey little guy, it's okay I’m not going to hurt you.” The toy dog tilted its head before getting closer and sniffing him. Before he knew it many pairs of eyes were on him, a faint glow came from behind him. A large purple dog on four legs, was emitting a soft blue light. The light helped illuminate the dark hall which let him see his kidnapper, It was Dogday, the large version at least. Pico’s gun was comically small, like he’s an adult holding a child’s toy handgun. Pico carefully headed to him with a gentle smile.

“Can I have my gun back ,Dogday?”  Pico asked, holding his hand out. Dogday stared at him for a second before begrudgingly handing him the weapon. “Thank you now, where am I?”. “You are in the playhouse,human” Dogday said, gesturing around the colorful walls. Pico took note of the cells but one held his interest. It had the dead body of a man in some sort of a hazmat suit, a full Grabpack on his back. Pico rattle the door, finding it locked. Before Dogday could say anything Pico dropkicked the cell door off its hinges. Once inside he starts to remove the Grabpack from the corpse. The moment he was able to lift up the Grabpack he realized it was heavy, a compartment on the right side held 4 hands, red, green, and purple. The last hand was different, it was orange but it was solid while the others had joints so they could grab objects. Finally putting it on and tightening the straps he took stock of the device.

The device had the red hand out first fiddling with the button on the side revealing a flashlight, putting the arm down and pressing a button to switch the hand to green. After not finding what green and purple do, he checked out the orange hand the one hand Bf didn’t have. Now out he saw it was in the shape of a finger gun, so aiming at the wall he fired and a bright ball flew out. “Oh it’s a flare gun, I was confused for sec because I thought it would fire bullets. Man if it did the Hour would have been stopped easily. ‘Oh what’s that Huggy Wuggy is eating people’ Bang! Problem solved" Pico’s joke made a few toys chuckle. He exits the cell all while the toys whisper about him most likely. Opening a set of double doors he was in a pool area, old chlorine flooded his nose making him physically gag. There was something in the pool hoping he found a… memorial for Boyfriend.

Chapter Text

Bf was still being hugged by Catnap who seemed to refuse to let him go. Luke would look at the scene for a bit before looking back at the two apparitions of Bf in front of him. No Hope was confused as he shouldn’t be seen. He mouths ‘me’ while pointing at himself. Luke nodded which caused him to say “the hell” out loud. This made Catnap aware of his presence but he still didn’t see No Hope or IHY.  “Uh, we’ll talk about them later since I just learned about them.” Bf said finally being let go from the tight embrace which was made worse by the equipment on his back. Looking down the hall , past the pleads for help written in blood, there was his office. The door was clean of blood and scratches, it looked out of place. Bf reaches under a couch, retrieving the spare key to his office.

Bf’s office was also untouched by the carnage but it was covered by a thick layer of dust meaning it has been left untouched since before the Hour of Joy. It was a pretty big office that even Stella’s office paled in comparison. Kid’s drawings were hung on the wall in frames, pictures of Bf and Catnap were also framed. In the corner was a drawing table with concept drawings of some toys like Boogie bot, Pianosaurus, a few of the Nightmare critters, and more. A wooden desk was in the center with a pretty comfortable swivel chair with 3 pillows so bf could see over the desk. The last major feature was the fake window that showed a gentle meadow instead of the usually fake trees and bushes. 

“It's like stepping into the past.” Luke said entering the room. Bf nodded then turned to gather the items that he wanted to keep which was everything connected to a good memory. While gathering his belongings he pulled out the phone and called Ollie (after finding the call back button) because he needed to explain his plan. “Hey Ollie.” Bf carefully balances the phone on his shoulder while being careful with his drawings. “Oh, thank god you’re okay, the cameras went down so I can’t watch you anymore.” Ollie was almost yelling in his ear. 

“Yeah that was my idea, sorry I didn’t tell ya sooner. I figure we were being watched by the doctor or the prototype so I decided they needed to go. Can’t have them ruining my plan.” Bf said grabbing everything he wanted. “What plan is that?” Bf let out a sigh. “I’m getting out of here with the toys I've found so far.” He could hear Ollie stammering. “Look, I'm not leaving permanently. With the amount of toys following and counting on me. I don’t want to leave them alone in a part of the factory so getting them out and away from harm is important. I can also get some supplies for you guys and get an arsenal to take out the Prototype. I’ll do it once I’m done in playcare” Ollie was silent before speaking again. “That’s… not a bad idea, okay I’ll talk to Doey bye bye”. 

“Bye Ollie.” Bf ended the call and turned to face the two large cats who were now staring at him. “Do you really mean that, Mister boy?” Luke asks from the doorway. “Of course I do. Wait, do you hear buzzing?” After he said that a swarm of Catbees descended upon him dragging him in the vent in a matter of seconds before either cat could react. “Luke, where’s their hive?”

Chapter Text

Pico stared at the little shrine for Boyfriend. The photo in the center was for the consular of the year, surrounding it was what he could only assume were gifts. All and all it looks like something you see on Day of the Dead not a toy factory, though the last place he thought human experiments would happen would be a toy factory so this wasn’t too weird, it was actually pretty sweet. “DON’T TOUCH THAT!” Dogday growled from behind. Pico just raised his hands and stepped away from the shire to let Dogday check it over. Once he was done he determined nothing was wrong he sighed. “Sorry, but this isn’t a place for humans anymore, whatever you came here for, it's probably long gone.” Dogday brushes his hand across the shrine. Pico goes to snap a photo with his phone. Oh my phone, damn i can be dumb sometimes. 

Pico taps Dogday on the shoulder. “What?” Dogday asked. “He’s not dead”. “What?”, “Bf is still alive.” Dogday could only stare at him, looking for proof. Pico pulled out his smart phone and brought up a picture of him and Bf taken on halloween in 2013, the calendar in the back proved it. Dogday’s eyes light brighten up upon seeing that goofy grin. “He’s alive.” He barely made a sound above a whisper. “How is he alive?” Pico shrugs “something about breaking his leg before and being in the hospital.”  Dogday let out a hoarse chuckle. “Of course, you know I realized I never asked your name.” Dogday said getting down on one knee. “Oh name's Pico and nice to meet you too.” Pico shook his hand. Many smaller toys came to stare at Pico mostly mini smiling critters plushies but some of the hard toys. The large purple dog was also there with a large red dinosaur similar to the lightpost ‘outside’ the playhouse. 

“I just found out Bf is alive, guys the only good person in playcare has returned and surely wants to help!”  Dogday said before asking Pico. “He is here right?” Pico nodded. “He should be in the fancy building rerouting the power, which we should do here.” Dogday nodded. “Everyone, you can leave.” Most of the mini critters funneled except for a bunch of mini Dogdays who all stared at Pico with their tails wagging. They crawled up his legs to rest on his shoulders and head. The smell of vanilla attacks his nose but not in an unpleasant way. Dogday leads Pico to the generator which has a pole power puzzle though both Pico and Dogday had no idea how it works. 

“So Pico… how do you know Bf” Pico stammered for a bit before answering. “ I knew him almost my whole life. You see both me and Bf were social outcasts. He was smaller than other kids his age ,and he was more hyper slash talkative. I was a shy, nervous mess that was made fun of because I was a red head, the only one in my school. So naturally we met during recess in kindergarten. I was confused by his eagerness to meet me. I was confused at first but soon I saw that he was a naturally friendly boy who likes mostly everyone.” Dogday nodded. “It was pretty similar for me and Catnap.” Pico finished the puzzle. “Yeah well, we tried dating in high school but eh we are not at that level of friendship.” Dogday ears perk up at the mention of dating another guy. 

“You can date the same gender?” Pico nodded. “You probably couldn’t since the CEOs are homophobic, probably racist in all honesty.” Dogday let out a noise in agreement. They left the power room and were back in the pool room. “We should probably check on the toys in our infirmary. They might be concerned about the power going off.” 

“Yeah, the sooner the better. No offensive but but this place is fucking creepy, like this would be the lair of monsters in a horror game.” Pico said, which Dogday let out a hearty chuckle. “Kinda already is.” The majority of the rooms were filled with pillow forts and tents. Critter plushies were darting back and forth gathering their belongings (few things they had) into a large sack for Dogday to carry. “ Just follow the candles, I’ll catch up.” Dogday called out to him while helping the minis. Pico nodded and followed the candles to a 4 way hallway with a crude sign hanging in the middle. They were labeled as following ‘Pool, Skool, Infirmare, and Play care’. Pico headed to the Infirmary to his right, smaller toys were loudly whispering to each other.

“Have you heard that Bf is alive” “how? Everyone who was here that day was killed.”, “for some reason he wasn’t” Pico ducked and weaved though the play structure till he found a metal door. He gripped the handle and opened it just enough to poke his head in. It is a laboratory hopefully for just checking up on the Critters. A bunch of toys lay on beds, most have drawings around them indicating they were in for a long stay. There were some toys that seemed to be new since they didn’t have many, if any, gifts. A metal cart crashed into the wall to the right of him. 

“Ahhrgghh , why is the power going out? Thank god none of the toys need life sup-” A large orange cat with a hand on its tail started to ramble when it spotted Pico. The cat rubs its eyes as if it’s trying to see if they are hallucinating. After a few rubs Pico is still there, now they are confused. Pico felt the tail grab his shirt and place him on to a rotating stool. The cat looked him over as if looking for something specific. Pico noticed the doctor outfit they were wearing , which was pretty a crop top since it wasn't made for a large cat to wear. “I think it’s safe to say you didn’t or are working for Playtime.” It said in a female southern accent . “gee what gave it away ,the fact I have literally nothing on me that bears the company logo besides this piece of shit on my back.” They both laughed for a bit. “Names Pico, Pico Fulp. You are…?” 

“Depending on which Identity you are asking about hun, the toy I've made into is named Catfiene. I… vaguely remember my old life from before, I believe I used to be called Claire. I go by either."  The toys started to stir awake. “ So anyway everyone is heading to the main playcare dome because we are rerouting the power to the… thing that leads lower in this hellhole.” Catherine was even more confused. “We?”

“Well to make a long story short my best friend came back here because of a letter. Me and my other friends came to get him.” Pico said while spinning the stool around. Dogday had entered the room, a large sack slung over his shoulder. “ I see you two have met.” Dogday said, earning a glare from Catfiene. Catfiene’s tail hand took the sack from Dogday then she slammed him into a metal storage cabinet, making the cabinet warp from the impact. “You are an idiot, did you not think to tell me about rerouting the power.” Dogday let out a whimper not in pain but because she was right. Catfiene sighed and let go of him “look I get it ,you get so focus on one thing you forget everything else. Just next time tell me okay.” Dogday looked up at her and nodded. He reached up and gripped the handle of the cabinet door, but managed to rip it off. 

“Jeezus, why did they make you so strong? You work with kids, not a bar.” Dogday tossed the door to the side then Catfiene helped him up to his feet. Pico spotted two tapes in the cabinet, a purple one labeled Catnap Check-In, the other was cyan and labeled Boyfriend Interview. “We never opened that because we thought it was just lab equipment and crap” Catfiene mutters while gathering medical supplies, Pico meanwhile took the two tapes and began to decide which one to watch first. Some noises came from behind him assuming the patients were waking up from the commotion. After a brief explanation to everyone they all stared at Pico. “heyo, Pico is my name, and I came for Boyfriend, who I assume some of you met.” Some of the toys nodded, mostly the big toys who were sleeping. “Well I'm gonna watch some tapes so you can either stick with me or head to the main Playcare dome.” nearly all the smaller toys left along with some dog worm hybrid. That left the two critters, the toy who seems similar to the pink toy hanging around Poppy, the hot pink spider ,and the rabbit with cymbals. 

“Mom- I might not trust you yet but if Bf trusts you then I’ll trust his jugdement.” The pink toy said. It seems most of the other toys shared that sentiment. “Fair enough” was all Pico responded with. Pico turns to the nearest TV and pops in the Catnap tape. It shows Catnap in a cell looking down at the floor while lying down. It seems this tape was recorded in this room since the cell is behind him.

"Okay... this is... CatNap. Uhhh... experiment #1197" a male voice said which made all the toys freeze. “ Is this Harley Sawyer?" Pico asked, pausing the tape. “No, this is Leith Pierre, head of Innovations and the man who took over as CEO of Playtime.co.” Dogday said to which Pico nodded. 

"What's his real name again?" Pierre asked someone off camera. “Ah! Okay. Hey there Cam, how’s it going?” He asked Catnap whose name is probably Cameron. Catnap turned away from the camera. “Cameron, can you answer the question?” Pierre said, clearly annoyed. “I got this” a woman had entered the cell. She gently rubs his back in a comforting manner. “Hey Cam, I’m Stella. I just want you to tell me how your first day in playcare went.” The woman whose name is Stella said in a soft tone. Catnap looked at her “why? you were there.” Stella sighed. “I know, but they want your account and thoughts on tape.” Catnap eyes flicker to the camera then exhaled “When I was called to enter playcare everyone stopped and stared at me, the kids were scared. I mean when standing on two legs, I'm like 20 feet tall.” Catnap sniffles a bit. “ I thought I would be sent back like the other Catnap.” Pico raised an eyebrow. I guess it makes sense, the critters are pretty cute so they would definitely milk them for all the money they are worth. 

“But then he came to the front and welcomed me, I thought he was a kid at first. He personally welcomed me to playcare.” Catnap's tail started to move faster as his ear perked up while explaining the experience. “Who?” Lieth asked in a rude tone. “I don’t remember his name” before Pierre could say anything Stella spoke up. “That was Mister Boyfriend xml” there was a pause. “Stella, did you hire someone who clearly has a fake name?”

“No I didn't, he brought his birth certificate and I.D. to prove it was his name.” Stella said. The tape stopped with a screen of text that said that the rest of the footage was of Stella and Leith arguing and Catnap’s introduction into playcare was a success. Pico stared at the tape containing the interview Bf took to become a part of this place. “ I don’t think we need to watch this one. It would probably be something personal and private.” Pico explains storing the tapes in his bag. 

“Well what now?” The pink toy said to which the blue toy growled and revealed the rows of pointed teeth in its mouth. “Well, well, well. Seems I found one of the germs trying to weasel their way into my veins." Pico turned back to the tv to see a large eye staring back.

Chapter Text

Bf could barely see as the swarm of Cat-Bees dragged him through the vent. Occasionally he would bang into a wall or a ceiling, to which a chorus of sorrys form his kidnappers. Soon they stop and for a while mutter amongst themselves for a bit before dragging him again. A vent grate suddenly crashed in front of the group. So bf was dropped down the gap onto a… beanbag? Cat-bees drop down from above landing on him then hopping off him. “Hey miss, he came. we found him. He will save us.” A bunch of children's voices started yapping in a mess of noise. “Childern, children, please calm down, we don’t want to overwhelm our savior.” A female voice said. A large Cat-bee ushered the smaller ones to give Bf space. Once the feline bug hybrid gets a good look she gasps and their eyes light up. “ Boyfriend, I’m glad you're here.” Bf was confused.

“Oh right you wouldn’t recognize me, it’s me Stella Garber.” The Cat-bee said. “ Wait Stella? but I thought you were turned into a frowning critter.” Bf said getting up. “Well she wasn’t the only one.” A Candy Cat slowly descended from a vent. “Rowan! What’s up?.” Stella addressed the long tongue cat. “Well the prototype and those under his command are working up into a panic. Apparently you are tearing down the hell they built, giving us ‘false hope’ for a life outside.” Rowan explained. “What can I say, I always know how to piss people off.” Bf let out a laugh. 

“Yeah the prototype wants you dead so Yippe! We are all screwed. I heard the prototype is sending the doctor and his most faithful disciple.” Rowan continued. Stella bonked him on the head with a paw. “Mr Stoll, can you calm down, you're scaring the little ones.” Rowan looked at the smaller Cat-bees. “Sorry kids, I don’t do well under pressure.” he said, rubbing the back of his neck with his tongue. 

“Sorry but can we go back to the talk about why you're a cat and not something I drew.” Bf interject. “Oh right well they were going to make me and Rowan, but they were not confident in that and wanted us to … survive with our mind mostly intact.” Bf suddenly felt a pit in his stomach again. “Anyway you’re here so we can worry about Sawyer and Catnap later.” Stella said. “Well Catnap remembers me so he is not a problem.” Bf said confidently. Stella’s face was confused for a second before facepalming (pawpalming in this case I guess). “Right there were two BBI Catnaps made, the one in playcare and one the in… The Shelf.” Bf's smile fell as he realized that it still was a problem. He sat there for a bit thinking of a plan.

“Wait Stella I remember when you were… you , you had a part in all this.” Bf asked. Stella sighed “well I wasn't involved really, but I had to be made aware of it since… an employee and his wife were going to adopt a kid from playcare. I had Jeremy file about to hand it over when… it just said testing on it, they were mad,confused, and sad. I was pulled aside by Pierre and he handed me the files, god I still remember reading them ,so many tears I shed. I agree to be quiet not for not caring but because if I didn’t I would be fed to a toy or become one.” Stella shivered. 

Bf started petting the poor kitty who once was his boss. “Wait, are the files still in your office?. He asked. Stella's ears perk up. “Yeah they are in fact you are in my office.” Bf finally looked around the room he was in and indeed it was her old office. “heh , I knew that I was just pretending to not know.” Bf set the great dane size toy on the ground. He walked by the door when it suddenly burst open.

Catnap and Luke stepped over barricades. “Are you sure they are in Stella’s office?” Catnap asked. “Well Stella did come to the office from the cave access with a bunch of small Cat-bees and one BBI Candy Cat. They gave us intel on what happening below so-”

“OH GOD” a scream from a female voice sounded out, cutting off the conversation , both cats rushed over to the source of the scream to find a grizzly sense. Bf was lying on the ground as curl up and standing over him were two large toys, Boxy and Picky, the latter holding a steak knife. “Oh Catnap, Luke good you’re here, sorry about the grizzly sight but we got food.” Catnap watches in horror as blood pooled under Bf, his white shirt becoming red with his own blood. Picky went to finish him off but was stopped by Bf. He held the knife back away from him using his right hand. His left was torn apart with a lot of missing chunks of flesh.

Picky was trying to get her knife out of his grip but it was in vain. Bf pulled it free with little effort and was now twirling it around. “Hello children , and two adults, it’s so good to see you.” Bf said but his voice was different and his eyes were glowing a bright white. “Boyfriend, are you okay?”  Bf turned to face Stella. “Ah miss Garber, sorry to disappoint but Bf is currently resting so you got mwah.” Everyone stared at the entity in control of Bf’s body. “Who are you then?” Catnap asked, clearly getting scared and angry. “Ah don’t worry dear Cameron, you may call me, Soul Boyfriend and I’m kinda like his guardian angel.” with a flick of the wrist the steak knife vanished into thin air.

“How do you know my name?” Catnap asked. “ Well it's kinda complicated, I can read the souls of those close to Bf but even then it’s not perfect or works for that matter.” He noticed both Boxy and Picky shivering in terror. “Oh don’t worry you two neither me nor Bf holds a grudge, you're not the first person to try and kill him, not even in this factory.” Soul let out a devious little giggle as he began to float. He reaches the cabinets and turns his right hand gray with claws. He picked the lock with his claws and returned it to a human hand. He started looking through the files though most were missing.

“Well, good news, they are the ones about the large critters, bad news most of the names are missing, no i mean someone cut them out of the reports.” Soul bf showed the group the files for both Crafty’s, the spot for the name for when they were human was carved out. Soon he reached the last two files both for two different Catnaps. A wide grin crossed his face as he read the two files. “Well now I wonder if…” Soul thought out loud as he stacked the cream folders in a stack. “Luke, Rowan, can you get the duffle bag that Bf left on his desk since a bunch of itty bitty cat paws carried him away.” Soul gestured to a cat-bee sitting on the beanbag. “Who got your office after you were ‘removed’, just curious.”

“Pierre took my office.” Stella said, gesturing to the name plate on the desk. Soul’s grin grows wider as looks around the room, stopping at a picture of the factory itself. Gripping the picture he tossed it away revealing a safe. He then grips the safe’s handle and rips the door off, dropping it to the side. The safe was filled with money but more importantly a bunch of papers, all the rights to everything Playtime created toys and the factory itself. Just then Luke returned with the bag, Rowan was panting from trying to keep with the larger cat. “God! Could you not have helped me? I got little cat legs.” he said between each breath.

“ Maybe I shouldn’t have sent you sorry.” Soul said sticking his tongue out which was pure white. “Why are you like this?” Rowan asked. “Well when I was bonded to Bf’s soul I gained his personality except more extreme, so You get an insane goober.” Soul said, doing finger guns to his head. “Anyway lets pack up this stuff and transfer the power”
