Without Warning (FNAF/UT)[Freedom AU Book Five]

Setting Up

  "Where are they?" White casually asked, as he overviewed the interior setup of the circus tent's back area. "We got 'em tied up just over here." Kimmy Moore started, as the two continued through the surprisingly spacious tent. "Kit 'n Ginger are lookin' 'em over to see what they got to work with." She explained, as they came up to the group of six abductees.

The lot of them were all sitting against a very sturdy support beam, tied to it securely--save for Carl, who was tied to the choker that the costumer* had given Ella. All except Mina had looks of understandable anger and resentment towards their kidnappers. Mina looked more terrified and confused than angry. "Ah, wonderful!" Charles exclaimed, getting a look at the group just as Kit Hull and Ginger Benetts stepped away for a moment.

"You won't get away with this." Puppet angrily stated, just as a golden doodle came prancing towards the new faces. The circus dog, Pippin, took a sniff to familiarize himself with the group.

"You sound so sure!"

"We are." Bonnie then responded, before Gold added, "Our family is probably lookin' for us." Charles nearly laughed. "Oh please. Whose gonna care if a few monsters suddenly vanish from that 'town'?" He practically mocked, before he turned to look at Kimmy. "Get Jeremy over here please my dear." The dirt blond nodded, before heading off in another direction.

"Gingy," White called, causing the makeup artiste to look at the ringmaster. "I want you to find a new look for carrots over there," He motioned to Ella. "Something that'll make her stand out from the other clowns."

"Excuse me?!" Ella practically screeched, as Ginger nodded. Then, with the help of a scoutsman, the artist went to pull Ella out and to another smaller tent. She tried to struggle, but Sami's strength combined with Ginger's made that incredibly hard. Charles then decided to add, "Don't even think about running off. You wouldn't even know where to go from here." He gave the remaining abductees an almost wicked sneer. "Our next few venues are in towns that are practically out in the boonies."

Worry, concern and dread were somehow making themselves all known to Freddy, as he made his way to the Guard Station. It'd been almost a full day, with no answers on where either Gold or Carl were. The bear had also found it difficult to contact a few of his friends for help, which seemed a bit odd.

Walking into the busy station, Freddy almost immediately noticed a few familiar faces talking with either a guardsman or receptionist. This wasn't right. Fredrick was here with Toy, speaking with... he couldn't quite remember the dog monster's name. Doggyrisa? Dogressa? Doggeressa. That was it. He could also see Ballora and Ennard speaking with a faun looking monster at reception.

Just as another guardsman came over to speak with the two, Freddy finally approached the reception desk. "Hello there, how can I assist you sir?" Freddy noticed the curious glance Ballora gave him from over her shoulder. She paused, waiting to hear what he would say. "I'm... here to file a um... missing persons report." Ballora's face paled, as the faun monster typed something into her computer. With a slightly upset look, the receptionist commented with, "You're not the first one here for that today."

Something was wrong, without a doubt.

"If you'll wait a minute, I'll have a guard speak with you about the report."

"Of course..."

"DON'T TOUCH HER!" Puppet shouted, as the crew's medic, Jeremy Myers, and the other makeup artist carried Mina off somewhere else. "Daddy!!" She cried out, all while watching her father fighting as hard as he could against the restraints. "Oh, enough of this." Charles muttered to himself, as he approached the livid father.

Too focused on trying to see where the two humans were taking Mina, the Marionette failed to see the toe of the ringmaster's boot quickly come towards his chest. At contact, the wind was knocked out of him, causing his shouts of anger to cease as he regained air. "That should shut you up for a minute." Puppet let out a cough, as White walked off.

The moment his human master had his back turned, Pippin came over to lick Puppet's cheek in some sort of comfort. The frilly blue and white fabric cuffs on the dog's ankles bouncing with each of his steps. Pippin didn't like it when anyone was distressed, and could tell these new people were. So, he'd try to make them feel better whenever his human wasn't making him do tricks.

A minute or two later, Jeremy returned alone. But, Puppet was too dazed to notice why it was the human was approaching him-
