                                 -5:30AM-
Most of the night was the same. Don't let Father go past the middle hallway. Play the 'child laughter' button to lure him back to furthest hallway. His movements were repetitive. It was beginning to become suspicious. "Does he know the plan...?" I whispered to myself, confused, as I watched him on the cameras.

It's almost time to start the fire. I need to make sure he stays back there in the furthest hallway. If he goes to the middle hallway, it would be dangerous to go. That's where the fire will be. I should start preparing... I have the lighter, wrench, and gasoline. I need to go to the center of the building and unscrew the gas pipe and cut some of the wiring in that hallway.

Then I'll place gasoline on the floor and light it with the lighter. And then finally, I will flee the building to avoid my remnant from burning out. Father will be trapped by the fire and won't be able to escape if he remains in the back hallway. The alarm started ringing, indicating that my shift was over and it was 6:00am. It was time to execute the plan... I got up and got the materials.

I sighed and tried to hype myself up. I felt the adrenaline rushing through me. I began walking down the hallways. I didn't want to run yet because I needed to save my stamina to run away from the fire. As I took each step I began to feel nervous and shaky. I tried to calm myself down with a few deep breaths but I felt like something was out of place.

Maybe I was just scared...? I finally got to the center of the building. First, I cut the wiring that ran along the ceiling of the hallway. Then I unscrewed the gas pipes and let the gas flow out from it. Then, I started to pour the gasoline on the floor. Now for the final step... I took a few steps back away from the gasoline on the floor.

I grabbed the lighter out from my pocket and flicked it on. "Goodbye Father." I whispered. I threw the lighter and the gasoline immediately lit up. I began to run to the closest exit. Father shouldn't be able to get out of that. I saw the fire exit door up ahead. I began to feel light headed. Was the fire affecting my remnant, or was it because it was hard to breathe with my mask on?

Either way, I was only a few steps away from the exit door. "You can't." I heard from the fire. "What...?" I said under my breath as I turned around. Nothing was there, just the fire. The heat was definitely messing with my remnant... I need to get out of here. And so I pushed the fire exit door open and was met with cold fresh air.

I walked up to a tree and leaned on it. I took off my mask and tried to catch my breath. I was facing towards the empty street with no cars and no people. Good, that meant no one would get hurt and no one would see anything. I looked back at the burning building and almost the entirety of it was engulfed in flames.

I sighed in relief. The plan was a success. But I couldn't shake off the uneasy feeling that I was being watched. Maybe I was just being paranoid. I tend to overthink things a lot. I think I should go home to Henry now... Everything went according to plan. Henry will be so proud of me. He will be happy that Father is gone so he can't hurt anyone else.

I began walking back home until- I felt a sharp pain in my chest and back. I looked down and saw a knife covered in my blood sticking through me. I dropped my mask as blood started rushing out from my mouth. Someone had stabbed me from behind. They removed the knife and I fell to the floor on my knees. They walked in front of me and pulled me by my hair to force me to look up at them.

I couldn't believe who it was... "Michael!?" Father asked, surprised. He let go of my hair and ran down the alleyway I was next to. I was losing blood fast... I needed to get back home to Henry. I grabbed my mask and slowly got up. As I walked back home I tried to apply pressure to my wound so I wouldn't lose a lot of blood so fast. It barely helped though.

I was starting to become light headed. But I was almost home. Good thing Henry's house is close to Fazbear Frights. As I turned the corner I felt myself falling but I grabbed onto a fence to hold myself up. I saw Henry about to get in his car. "Henry!" I called out to him.

He turned around and started running towards me. "Henry..." I was trying to explain what had happened. "Shhh, it's okay. I'm going to help you." He said as he helped me walk to the house.
