(Y/N)'s POV:

The Control Module was really spacious and creepy at the same time. But something got my attention

A white mask with a green, yellow and orange party hat, red eyebrows and a clown nose.
To be honest, I didn't have a good feeling but I shrugged it off.

"You are now in the Primary Control Module. It's actually a crawl space between the two front showrooms" the voice gave me some happy vibes actually "View the window to your left. This is the Ballora Gallery Party Room and Dance Studio, encouraging kids to get fit and enjoy pizza"

I could hear Michael sigh even if the speakers were pretty loud "Please, just make it fast." I thought he was thinking out loud so I stayed quiet.

"Let's turn on the light and see if Ballora is on stage. Press the blue button on the elevated keypad to your left."

I did as he said and..nobody was on stage. "Uhm..i-is this normal?-" I looked at the boy behind me "Yes it is, don't panic" he looked down at me and gave me a little smile.

"It looks like Ballora doesn't feel like dancing" 'Well no shit Sherlock' I got pretty annoyed "Let's give her some motivation"

'Motivation? How should I do that?-' my thoughts were interrupted "Press the red button now to administer a controlled shock" 'What..?' I don't know why I was so shocked but..something told me to not do it.

<< "Promise you won't leave me!" tears streamed down the little girl's cheeks "I promise I won't!" >>

"Shit.." I got a bit dizzy "Woah there, are you okay?" Mike said placing a hand on my shoulder.
I barely flinched at the contact "Yeah..just..my head hurts a bit" I didn't want to make eye contact.

"Are you sure you can continue to do this?" I massaged my temples and regained my composure "Of course, it'll pass so don't worry" I gave him a closed eye smile still not looking him in the eyes.

I pressed the button and a spark formed "Let's check the light again" I pressed the blue button and as the lights turned on I could see one of the animatronics. Ballora.

She was really pretty!
I couldn't see much since the light wasn't that strong but I could see her blue hair and pink skirt, the combination of colors made everything even more prettier.

"Excellent. Ballora is feeling like her old self again and will be ready to perform again tomorrow."

"You're doing a really good job to be your first time here" Michael said with a little smile.
I blushed at those words, I'm not really used to compliments "T-Thank you.." I said quietly

"Now, view the window to your right" I did as the voice said "This is the Funtime Auditorium, where Funtime Foxy-" and at that exact moment..I froze.

'Foxy..? No. It can't be..'  "-let's see what Funtime Foxy is up to." I shrugged off for a moment those thoughts..I didn't want to remember that.

"Try the light. Let's see what Funtime Foxy is up to." 'Wow..persistent' I pressed the button and as I was expecting..the animatronic wasn't there.

"Looks like Funtime Foxy is taking the day off. Let's motivate Funtime Foxy with a controlled shock." still..something was telling me not to do it.

"Hey..Mike.?" the boy hummed in response "are you sure the controlled shock is a good option?" I turned around to see him with wide eyes "W..What do you mean?" his dead eyes had a hint of pain..

"I.." 'He'll think you're crazy Y/N..' I lowered my head "Never mind..it's stupid"

Michael's POV:

After that she turned around and looked at the glass panel in front of her.
'She just..what?' I honestly couldn't believe what she said.

'Come on. Just pretend you didn't hear anything..she will get suspicious.'

(Y/N)'s POV:

I looked at the panel and then at the red button, after a few seconds I pressed it and again..the spark came.

But this time..the animatronic wasn't there. "Let's try another controlled shock" 'I hope you're kidding right now.' I sighed and pressed it again
"Looks like Funtime Foxy is in perfect working order, great job!"

"In front of you is another vent shaft. Crawl through it to reach the Circus Gallery Control Module" I just didn't think this night could get any worse.

"Ugh..do we really have to?" I said turning to look at Mike "What is it? Is our Y/N tired of working?" he said with a smirk looking into my eyes.
"Yes, I am. Is there a problem with that?" I said while crossing my arms.

We had a stare contest for what seemed to be a minute and then Mike giggled "Okay okay, come on." he went near the vent "If you'll do the next task right, then I'll let you leave before 6 A.M."

I thought for a moment and looked at him "So we have a deal?" he rose an eyebrow still smirking "Yup" I said.

He went through the vent and I did the same thing.
After a bit we arrived at the other Control Module

It had a REALLY BIG glass panel 'Is this animatronic special or something?' there was a poster with a girl animatronic with red hair into two ponytails, green eyes and a red dress.

"Is that the Circus Baby animatronic?" I asked pointing at the poster "Yeah..it is" Mike's mood changed..his voice was kinda...

emotionless.

"On the other side of the glass is Circus Baby's Auditorium. Let's check the light, and see what Baby is up to" I pressed the button but the lights didn't go on.

"Looks like a few of the lights are out, but we can fix that later" that didn't sit well.. "Uhm..Mike..?" when i looked at him he was so calm like nothing happened.

"Don't worry. As he said; we'll fix that later" if Michael said it too then maybe I shouldn't worry..

"Let's encourage Baby to cheer up with a controlled shock." I did as he said but neither the controlled shock was working "Let's try another controlled shock" I pressed the button again and the tried to turn the light on.

I could see nothing "Great job Circus Baby, we knew we could count on you! That concludes your duties for your first night on the job."
'Oh..so Baby was there..'

"You did great Y/N" I flinched a bit from the compliment "O-Oh..thank you Michael.." I stuttered a little.

"Let's go back now" he went through the vent and a few seconds later I crouched near it. And as I did that I could feel someone stare at me.

I turned around..but nothing or nobody was there.

'What the hell..'
