Five Nights At Freddy's 2

Chapter 5 - Night 3

I couldn't keep still. I had to pull over twice on the way to the restaurant the next night because I was shaking so much. I almost turned around, but I needed the money. Desperately. So I continued towards the restaurant, whilst a voice in my head told me this night could be my last.

"Wow" the manager ran to help me as I stumbled and fell into the office. "Careful there, we don't want any accident records for the pizzeria!" he said, chuckling. I simply glared at him, pulled myself from his grasp and went and slumped down in the chair. "Is everything ok, Jeremy?" the manager asked as he scribbled away at some paper.

I turned to him, anger suddenly burning inside of me. "Oh yeah, the crazy the animatronics are fine. It's fine that they try to kill me, and they jumpscare me. It's just great." I said sarcastically. The manager looked up from his papers, worry etched across his face. "Oh, t-that? N-no, the animatronics just... just want to find out where the people are! That's it! They think they're in the wrong room and look for people, which happens to be your office." he said, laughing nervously. He looked back to his papers, wiping sweat from his brow. I sighed, frustrated. "Ok. Can you go now, I have to get ready for my shift." I glared at him. He looked at his watch, then quickly scurried out the room without another word.

The clock's chime made me jump this time. I was so worried about the animatronics, I couldn't concentrate on anything. I tried looking through the cameras, but I kept getting the feeling that something would jump out at me. The phone rang again, and I pressed the answer button, a little relieved that I would hear that voice again.

"Hello hello! See? I told you you wouldn't have any problems!" Well, if you don't count being feet away from a murderous blue bunny as a problem, then sure. "Did...uh... Did Foxy ever appear in the hallway? Probably not. I was just curious. Like I said, he was always my favorite. They tried to remake Foxy, ya know? Uh, they thought the first one was too scary, so they redesigned him to be more kid-friendly and put him in Kid's Cove. To keep the toddlers entertained, you know... But kids these days just can't keep their hands to themselves. The staff literally has to put Foxy back together after every shift. So eventually they stopped trying and left him as some 'take apart and put back together' attraction. Now he's just a mess of parts. I think the employees refer to him as just 'The Mangle'. " I had noticed it lying in a mess in the Kid's Cove. I switched to that camera feed now to find it still there.

"Oh, hey, before I go, uh, I wanted to ease your mind about any rumors you might have heard lately. You know how these local stories come and go and seldom mean anything. I can personally assure you that, whatever is going on out there, and however tragic it may be, has nothing to do with our establishment. It's just all rumor and speculation... People trying to make a buck. You know... Uh, our guard during the day has reported nothing unusual. And he's on watch from opening til close." Why would there be stories about the restaurant? Oh yeah, crazy robots.

"Okay, well anyway, hang in there and I'll talk to you tomorrow." The phone line clicked dead. I instantly felt uneasy now that there wasn't another human voice. I slowly clicked through all the camera feeds, carefully looking for something out of place. But there wasn't anything. Maybe this night wouldn't be so bad.

I spent two hours keeping a good eye on all the animatronics, and keeping the music box wound up. So far Bonnie and Mangle had moved, but they weren't in the vents, so I felt relatively safe. Foxy had appeared in the corridor earlier on, but I had flashed him with the flashlight and he had gone away. I felt quite confident. That was until I looked at Parts And Storage.

Before, there had been three animatronics visible. However, now the yellow chicken had fallen over, and the blue bunny with the missing face had gone. I quickly looked through all the cameras and eventually found it at the end of the main hall. I was paralysed staring at it for a few minutes, before I saw the orange warning sign flash next to the Prize Corner camera. I quickly switched to it and wound up the music box, before continuing checking the cameras.

2 more hours passed. Foxy had appeared multiple times, but he hadn't been much of a problem as I had been able to reboot him with the flashlight. Mangle and Bonnie had appeared at my right vent, but I had managed to put the Freddy head on in time so they wouldn't bother me. I almost felt like I could complete this shift. But then the Old Bonnie thing arrived.

I was checking the Game Area camera, and had just realised the Balloon Boy had gone when something pulled down my monitor. Standing before me was the Old Bonnie that had been in the Main Hall. I frantically fumbled around for the Freddy head as the lights flickered. I managed to get it on just as Bonnie was stepping towards me, and the lights flickered off. I sat in the dark for a few minutes, waiting for a metal hand to grab me, but it never came. The lights faded back on, and I was safe. Well, this time.

The last 2 hours passed uneventfully, and soon enough I was walking out of the restaurant in a drizzling rain. I clambered into my car and sat there for a few minutes, thinking about everything that had happened tonight. I wasn't sure if I would be so lucky tomorrow. I shakily started the car and drove out of the car park, away from the restaurant and the animatronics. But the image of Bonnie wasn't going to leave my mind soon.
