You woke up sometime around 1pm and that was all because you had a badly shattered sleep schedule. The reason for this was your former Night Guard job in one of the local House of Night Terrors called Dredbear's House Of Night Terrors, where the main attraction was animatronics taken out of the nightmares.

After you got out of bed, you went to the bathroom where you took a shower and then started looking in the mirror. You were a 25 year old boy about 1.9m tall. You had dark brown hair, light skin, and quite a lot of different types of scars. However, 3 things stood out the most in your entire body. 2 of them are scars that were at the same level on your back and chest, roughly level with your heart. The third thing was the eyes. Glowing with a yellow-gold glow with black vertical pupils.

You got all this in one unlucky night while working.

* Flashback *

You were in the gatehouse when your boss Scott called you.

"Garry. I have a report that a light bulb has broken in Grim's Corn Maze. Would you please go over there and replace it and clean up that mess?" he asked you on the phone.

"Sure thing, boss." you said and you moved towards the maze. The place you were supposed to reach was visible from a distance, as it was the only dark place in the entire maze. In addition, Grim Foxy was waiting for you there, making sure that no one came to this place.

"You're here at last. If you hadn't come alone, I would have attracted you here." Grim said, waving his plastic sickle in place of his right hand.

"Yeah. And then I'd be in bed again for 3 days with your claw wounds." you laughed and positioned the ladder perfectly under the broken bulb. "Okay. Now hold my ladder and it'll be over soon." you said to the Animatronics and he just nodded and started to hold the ladder. You, on the other hand, climbed on it and started unscrewing the light bulb when a sudden short-circuit suddenly made you fall from the ladder straight at Grim, and the last thing you felt was his sickle piercing your heart. Then everything went black.

You woke up about an hour later. However, you felt strange. And suddenly you realized why. In front of you you had your own body with a hole right through to your heart. The second was that you were Grim. The third was that there was a short circuit fire all around you that caused your death. You immediately got up from the ground, staggering slightly in the process, because your new body was made of metal. The first thing you did is make your way to the gatehouse, which has not yet been engulfed in flames. Along the way, you saw the charred remains of Jack-O-Chiki and Jack-O-Bonnie, as well as Dredbear. You ran into the office and grabbed a small suitcase from under the desk. There were a few things you had been messing with for a while, one of which was the Illusion Disc that you immediately mounted on your new body. After a while you were yourself, just with two huge scars in the center of your chest. Then you locked your suitcase and escaped in a burning building perfectly when your boss arrived there.

"Garry. What happened?" he began to ask.

"There was a short circuit in the system when I replaced a light bulb in Grim's Labyrinth. It made me lose my balance and fall off the ladder straight onto him. Then it went dark for me. I don't know what happened next, but I know one thing. I saw that I was looking at my own still body with a hole in the center of my chest. And I'm a fucking Grim. " you said to Scott and he started laughing a little.

"That last part, you must have made up your mind ..." he did not finish, as at this point you turned off the disc and showed your new body in all its glory. "So you are telling the truth." he said thoughtfully. After a moment of silence, he walked over to his car and took out a rather large envelope. "Please. This money is yours for your great job. But now I have to find a way to get out of this situation. Now goodbye my friend. I hope we'll meet again sometime." he said to you, giving you an envelope first and then a hand to shake. "Same old friend." you said and shook his hand. "Let me tell you one thing. Today Garry died. And in his place someone else has arisen. His name is Michaell Grim." you said and Scott just smiled and handed you the keys to his car. "Take it. You will need it more." he said, and you grabbed his keys and got into his car saying. "Thanks a lot. I owe you for the rest of my days." you said and you moved north.

* End of Flashback. *

Yes, your name is Michaell Grim. And five years have passed since that day. You've almost run out of money from Scot, so for a good week you've been looking for a job that is suitable for a night owl like you. You left the bathroom, got dressed, after a while you had breakfast in the kitchen. They were hotdogs with sausages with pieces of habanero pepper. Very spicy, but your mechanical organism feels practically nothing. Admittedly, you were well endowed for a robot in a haunted house, especially in the lower parts of your body. You lazily browse through job offers and after a while you see quite a large advertisement showing a robot with shapes that stimulate your imagination. Under the photo it read: Freya's Anime Convention is looking for a Night Guard to protect the restaurant. If you are interested in this position, please call *** - *** - ****. Reading this, you immediately grabbed the phone and called the number.

"This is Freya's Anime Convention. How can I help?" a gentle female voice asked you.

"Hello. I'm Michaell Grim. I'd like to sign up for the job of the Night Watchman." you said and the woman just replied.

"Please come to us at 10:30 pm. We will put you on a small test and if you pass it you will get a job with us. Your salary will be agreed when you are accepted." the woman said, and you just spoke up.

"Thank you very much. So I'll see you in a few hours. Have a nice day." you said and hung up right after the woman said goodbye to you.

"No. I finally found a job." you said to yourself and sat on the couch and started watching Stranger Things on Netflix. You set an alarm on your phone so that it would ring somewhere around 10 PM, so you can prepare for your job appointment in peace. However, you would never expect what will happen tonight.
