Chapter Text
_ Hello ? I asked.
But nobody answered. There’s nothing here ! I sat down on a wall and started crying. I’m alone, Freddy is not with me, in this creepy and dark house. I don’t know how I ended up here… It’s dark. I just want to get out.
_ Please… someone, I cried.
Then, a lil' boy appeared in front of me. He looks a lot like me. But shorter, more crybaby and… dead ? He wears a black shirt and we're hugging a yellow bear plush. I stop crying for a moment.
_ Who are you ? I whispered.
_ I’m C.C. but you can call me Chris.
_ Where am I ?
_ In my house. Isn’t it obvious ?
_ You’re… You're dead ? I asked, unsure.
_ I’m. My turn : who are you ? And you look alive ?
_ I’m Gregory. And, yes, I'm still alive. Well, for the moment.
_ Someone wants you dead ?
_ Yes… A white rabbit girl.
I look away. And remember that I just want to see Freddy again. And then, I start crying again. Chris came and sat down next to me. He hugged me.
_ You know… I was playing hide and seek with my sis and my brother. Do you want to play with us ?
_ Hum, no. Your house is creepy. I don't wanna go out of the room.
_ It does ? Sorry, I don't think we’re seeing the same thing.
Then, he takes his hand to his head.
_ Oh, right. You don't have an illusion disk. I’ll get you one.
He… teleports ? And left me here. I hugged myself, nothing much to do. He came back some minutes later :
_ Do… Do you have something that can read disks ?
_ The fazwatch…?
_ I guess.
He took my watch and put a disk in. He gave me back the fazwatch. I put it on and the house lights up. There's much more colour and it's not in ruins. It actually looks nice. I also noticed that Chris’s wounds were not anymore and it was kind of much better. Then, we heard screaming:
_ Chris ! You lil' **** !
_ That's my sis, Chris sighed.
_ You let… her call you that ?
_ I use to.
_ Chris ! Scream again the girl. Where the fuck are you ?
_ Beth ! Stop screaming ! Screamed a boy.
_ Shut up ! I just want to find bro ! CHRIS, SHOW UP OR I’LL BURN THE HOUSE !
_ You can't! Mickey already did it ! Scream my new friend.
_ No ?! I didn't ! She was already burned when I came back ! Scream ‘Mickey’.
We walked in the house to find a little girl, younger than me and Chris. She was ginger and had green eyes. No wounds. I’m starting to think that's because of the illusion disk.
_ Who is it ? Asked the girl.
_ New friend of mine. The name’s Gregory, answered Chris.
I smile at the girl. She smiled back at me. Then, she does a mad look at me.
_ You hurt my brother, I kill you.
_ Okay… I won’t hurt him, I promise.
_ Good ! Now, let's find Mickey.
Chris and I followed the girl.
_ What's her name ? I whispered to Chris.
_ It's Elisabeth. But you can call her Beth or Lizzy. He whispered back.
_ Thx !
We get to a kitchen. A man jumped out from behind the door with a fox mask. Chris got scared and jumped on me. I catch him and look at the man.
_ That's childish.
_ You're a child…
_ I fight ! Animatronics, though. But I fight big things !
_ Animatronics ?
He takes off the mask.
_ Yeah… at the Pizza Plex.
_ And they wanted to kill you ?
_ That's… That's what I said.
_ Cookie ? He asked.
_ Yeah ! Scream Lizzy.
_ I… forgot to eat earlier, so yes. I answered.
We walked to Lizzy's room. We sat down on the ground and continued to talk :
_ So… What's your name ? Asked the adult.
_ Gregory. And you ?
_ Micheal. But you can call me Mike.
_ Why do the animatronics want to kill you ? Asked Chris.
_ Well… Because of the white rabbit girl who's possessed by a glitch rabbit ?
_ A glitch rabbit ?
_ Yeah, something like this.
_ I bet that's our dad… Sighed Mike.
_ Your dad is a killer rabbit ? Weird.
_ Don't judge. And yes… Afton family's long story.
_ Tell me short !
_ Okay… It started in the 1980’s. William and Henry built their own pizzeria. The fredbear family diner. But then, an accident happened and the pizzeria had to close..
_ What happened ?
_ I… accidentally killed Chris… the bite of 83.
_ Oh… Sorry.
_ It's okay. Then, William and Henry opened other pizzeria but all of them had to close because there were missing children incidents. In one of them…
_ I got killed ! I wanted to see Circus baby closer but she took me and I died. She's now haunted by my scream.
Scary…
_ Dad, well, William disappeared. Henry left the job because one of the missing children was his daughter who was murder next to the pizzeria. I died because of my sister.
_ Hey, I wasn't the one who killed you ! It was Ennard.
_ Yeah… I don't make any difference. I burned my dad twice. But he ‘always comes back’. So, that's the short version. And you ? Your story ? Asked Mike.
_ Hum… well, not that incredible… I just got stuck in the Pizza Plex after Freddy got a problem on stage. I have to survive from the animatronics that I can't break because mister Freddy said ‘they’re good, they're my friends. They won't hurt you.’ Fuck it, Chica hurt me last time. I couldn't use my arm for two nights.
They look at me like I was something else than the little boy who stands next to them. It feels weird. So killer robots weren't new for Fazbear entertainment… Cool.
~Later~
I had fun with them. They're really kind ! But I still miss Freddy and… well, that's all. I have to find a way home. So, the next day -i supposed ‘cause I don't see the time passed-, I try to sneak out the house. But Chris stopped me.
_ Where are you going? He asked.
_ try to go back to the Pizza Plex…? I said.
_ Alone ? I’m coming with you !
I couldn't say no to him… so, he came with me. We walk in the alley. There's nobody here ! But we didn't talk. This city is so freaking big ! Why does she have to be so big ?
_ So… euhm, Gregory ?
_ Yeah ?
_ Why do you want to go back somewhere everyone's trying to kill you ?
_ Well, not everyone. Freddy protects me. And I miss him.
Finally! From where we were, I could see the Pizza Plex’s light. I started running to the place but I noticed the more I approached, the less Chris was following me. I turn back to him and get closer.
_ What's wrong ? I asked him.
He hesitated. I don't know why…
_ Are you scared ? I asked.
He noods. He’s scared ? Of what ?
_ why ?
_ Animatronics. They’d always scared me.
_ Oh… Don’t worry. I’m here to protect you ! And you're already dead, so… nothing more to do to you.
He chuckled. I was proud : I made a dead laugh.
_ You're right. Nothing bad can happen, right ?
I nod and take his hand. He's a soul but I can hold his hand. Hold his hand… I think I started blushing. He didn't notice yet. Thank God. We entered the Pizza Plex. The first thing we see is Chica and Roxy running after Freddy to…get me. Vanny was with them. Shit… Vanny will see me. And she did. My first reaction was running. Chris followed me, flying. I hid in a photoshoot.
_ Gregory~ Said Vanny.
Chris whispered to me :
_ That's the white rabbit girl who's purchasing you ?
I nood.
_ Her name is Vanny.
_ She looks like… Glitchtrap ?
Glitchtrap? Who is it?
_ Who ?
_ Glitchtrap… Our dad.
_ Your dad's trying to kill me ?! I scream.
Crumbs… I get out of the photoshoot and run away from Vanny. She's following. She's getting closer. And I forgot. Dark, all.
-Chris View point-
Gregory gets out of the photoshoot (?) and starts running. I was kind of surprised by the new and forgot to follow him. I wake up and start chasing Vanny and Gregory. But all I find is the rabbit lady covered by blood, getting out of a room. That stopped me. Did she…? I enter the room, hesitating. A corps. There was a corps. That was… disgusting. Vanny left it here. No hiding it. So I approached. To see who it was. In the first place, I couldn't tell who it was. Brown hair, blue shirt… Gregory ?
_ Ouch… Said a voice.
I turn back and see him. His hand floating, wings in his back. Some stabs were visible. I stand back. More sad and surprised than other things.
_ Gre… Gregory ? I whispered.
He looks at me. He still didn't notice.
_ Yeah-
He stopped. Did he notice? He looks… horrified.
_ That's… That's a corps..
_ Yeah…
_ That's… m i n e ?
I nood. What else could I say ? He will know eventually. He took a foot back. And fall on the ground. I took a foot forward. But he stopped me. That's new to him. He's like me now. A soul.
_ Greg'… That's gonna be okay. Don't worry.
_ Freddy… He will be sad…
He's in shock. He started crying and I approached to hug him. To comfort him. I said sweet words and patted him on the back. After a long minutes, he stopped. He thanked me and stood up. I just followed him wherever he was going. We travel to a huge place and manage to get to the room of the animatronics. The wolf and the chicken were there, waiting for something- no- someone. Gregory goes to the first room. It was Freddy's. I go too. In front of us, a big bear. Look more robot than bear, a little less scary than the actual Freddy I know.
_ Freddy ? Try my friend.
The robot face us.
_ Gregory ? What happened? Freddy panics.
Look like a dad. Gregory hugged him and cried a new time. Freddy hugged him back.
_ I’m dead, she got me ! Cried Greg'.
_ That's gonna be okay, superstar. Nothing more can happen to you.
_ Freddy ! I just wanted to see you again ! But I failed !
_ There, there superstar. That's okay. You're a strong boy. Crying is okay.
I… kinda feel bad for him. I leave the room and let Freddy comfort Gregory. I need to talk to Mikey about that rabbit. She kind of reminds me of the yellow rabbit, Springtrap. So I teleport to our house. Big bro looks worried.
_ Chris ! He said. Where were you ?
_ I accompanied Gregory to the Pizza Plex.
_ You ok ? You look sad.
_ Gregory got killed by the rabbit lady. She reminds me of Glitchtrap.
_ She reminds you of William ? Strange. Can I go with you ?
_ Sure.
I teleport Mikey and I. Next to Freddy’s room. I forgot that there was Chica and a wolf. And I see them looking at something. I approached, to see too. They were looking at Gregory, with beautiful white wings and a blue halo floating above his head. He was… beautiful.
_ Chris ! Look !
The two animatronics turn back and face Mikey and I.
_ Mickey, run.
He obeyed and ran. Chica and the wolf run after him. I faced Gregory who was trying to fly with his wings. ‘Cute.’ He was laughing and amazed by the fact he had wings. He missed falling and I catch him.
_ Be careful ! you’re maybe dead but you still feel pain !
We laugh.
_ Thank you for catching me. Can you put me down ?
_ Oh ! Sure.
But I wanted to keep him ! I make a pout while putting him down. He smile at me.
_ Can I see your wings ? He asked.
_ Sure.
I show him my wings, which go white to black with purple highlights. Gregory was amazed. He pats my wings, makes them up and down and other stuff. He finally stand up in front of me :
_ Your wings are so beautiful ! Can I brush them ?
_ Why would you brush them ?
_ I du no. Just wanted to.
I look at him. He looks at me. I sight and make a brush appear. I gave it to him and we sat down. Gregory starts brushing my wings.
_ How do you feel ? I asked.
_ Better !
_ It looks like you take it well… Not everyone did it.
_ ‘Everyone’ ?
_ Yeah… The missing children.
_ Oh. Well… I’m stuck here for a while and nobody is searching for me. I suppose my parents don’t miss me. Freddy can see me and that’s all I need.
_ Really ? I said, sadly.
_ Well, no. It misses something.
I listen more carefully to what he’s gonna say.
_ It misses… A friend. Who likes spending time with me.
_ Is there someone in particular in your mind ?
_ Yeah. Let me describe him : he is very kind. He is dead… younger than me I think.
_ More ?
_ It looks like he always cries. He wore a black shirt. We look a lot alike.
He stopped brushing my wings.
_ I thought I killed you ?! Said a lady.
It was Vanny.I stood up and changed into Shadow Freddy. She breaks the moment. She took a step back. I took a step ; menacing her. I growled at her.
_ d o n ’ t y o u d a r e .
I was scary enough, she ran away.
_ YOU TURN INTO AN ANIMATRONIC ? ASked Gregory, behind me.
_ Well… Yes ?
I turn back into a soul. He looks at me with stars in his eyes.
_ How did it work ?
_ I du no…
_ Oh…
_ Gregory, you were saying something before Vanny came… Do you-
He starts blushing. Cute. I remember somehow that Mickey learn me how to flirt.
_ Are… Urgh… Are you made of copper and tellurium ?
_ No that I know, why ?
_ Because you’re Cu-Te.
I look away, blushing. I feel embarrassed. I don’t know what Gregory's reaction was.
_ Uh… Thanks. You… You’re cute too.
That was awkward. We both were blushing.
_ Just, kiss ! Scream Mickey.
Wait, what ?
Gregory grabbed my head and kissed me. On the lips. I freeze for a moment, a second. And I give him back the kiss. We break the kiss and look at each other. We were red. But Gregory took my waist, making me blush more.
_ Greg- ?
He kissed me one more time.
_ I… Love you. I know that’s crazy because we know each other for a day or something but… You make me happy; I’m me with you; I think about you… and… and-
I kissed him this time.
_ Shut up, I love you too. Don’t worry.
Mickey whistled at us.
_ Cute. Now, Lizzy has to know !
_ Oh. Does she have ?
_ Yep. And… Maybe we can live here. So you can stay with Gregory and I can take care of William.
He made the mad look. Mickey is gonna kill someone.
