Toby looked at the handwritten notes under the article. Once, twice, and a third time. He had seen that handwriting before, sure, it was some time ago, but he still was able to recognize it. After a quick glance at the clock on the wall that showed 11:36 pm, the male left the office again. The reason he came there in the first place being that he had to know for how long they were shut off. He remembered the turning off of the animatronics and the power directly after the police's leaving. However, he had found more than he came for, nonetheless, he was happy about it. The others were in the main room, talking about their experiences and how they felt in the shut off animatronic they possessed. When Toby entered, the others looked at him. "How long?", Sascha asked curiously. "A bit more than two weeks. Though, there is something else I wanted to talk about", the other male said, and everybody went silent. What would it be, the worst was already over, right? "I found some newspaper articles. First off, we succeeded. They think it was suicide. I also found something else. The new owner hired a night guard", the boy continued. "What happened to the old one?", Mimi asked confused. "He was the murderer. However, to keep our secret safe, we need to get rid of the night guard", Toby answered. "So you suggest we'll kill him, too?", Flora asked in a calm voice. He nodded. After a moment of silence, Mimi went over to him and grabbed one of his bunny ears. Considering that the bunny-animatronic was 6'3 (just to the top of his head, not including the ears), he was about a head bigger than the fox animatronic that measured 5'7, Mimi probably would've had more respect if it weren't for the current situation. Now, she pulled him down to be at the same height. The girl was bursting with rage. "We can't kill another person, especially not an innocent one! Are you crazy?! Did you loose all your human decency?!", she asked, almost screaming. Though, she didn't mention the guilt she felt. The guilt that had been there since she processed what had happened. The guilt that grew stronger every day. However, Toby didn't seem to care that much. He took the wrist of the hand that held his ear. "Look, I only want the best for us. I'm sorry but there is no other way", he explained calmly, yet his grip got tighter while he was saying the second sentence. Mimi looked at him in disbelief, then she pulled her hand away and moved her head in the direction of her friends. "I'm going to stay out of this. That person did nothing wrong", Sascha told the others. To demonstrate her position, Flora slowly walked over to Toby, giving the others a sorry and almost guilty look. "I want our secret to be safe and if there is no other way...", she declared. "There is one! There is one! We just tell him to leave and quit the job!", Mimi smiled, Toby shook his head. "There are multiple reasons this won't work. Think about it. Anyways, since I want to play fair, I'll give you a chance with your idea. If it doesn't work however, I'll kill him. The electronic parts in Sascha's animatronic will make him to hunt the night guard, no matter what happens. With that technical stuff, the soul can't move the robot. Believe me, I know damn well how to use that. They should be here by twelve a.m. and if they're still here after fifteen minutes the hunt is on. I might not have control over your animatronic yet but that'll change soon my dear", he explained to her, his tone as cold as the expression in his dark blue eyes. Mimi shook her head as she watched Toby wander off. "The hunt already began, it seems. The hunt began...or maybe it's a war that started", she murmured as she walked away, to Kid's Cove, to see her sister who everybody seemed to have forgot of. She probably didn't leave the small room under the stage because she was scared that there were still people in the restaurant. Even though Mimi wanted to keep her sister away from most of this, a little help wouldn't be bad. There was still some time left and maybe Molly had an idea. If not, she'd still have her own creativity. There had to be a solution. And even though Mimi wasn't sure how he would be able to do so, she didn't want Toby to take over her animatronic. At the moment, it was the best to stay away from him.
