FNAF Reality

20. Safe... For now

We all waited. Nothing except for the haunting tune of 'pop goes the weasel' broke the silence. It was dark and no one wanted to turn the main lights on so most of us either turned to our phones or lay down for a quick nap. No metal clanking, no screeching or screaming. No hectic procedures. You could almost believe that it was safe and that you were just hiding out in your school overnight. Not like we would ever do that without crazy animatronics roaming the place, but still. It was peaceful and we could relax for the first time in 5 days. It was wonderful. But even I knew it had to end sometime. Or maybe it would stay like this until 12am and it would be over. It seemed almost too much to hope for it to be over. The time was 7:40. It couldn't go quickly enough.
I had used a beanbag as a blanket the best I could, leaning against a surprisingly comfortable bookshelf and playing on my phone due to the darkness. I must've dozed off at some point because I was woke up to someone softly shaking me. I almost whacked them in the face until I realised it was Natalie. She motioned to be quiet and we heard the sound we were all sick of. You know when you were having a wonderful dream and your alarm clock wakes you up? Then you wish you could roll over and sleep again so you don't have to face the day ahead? It was like that. I was fed-up and annoyed.
"hEy kiDs. YoU ReAdy tO pLay?" Came the garbled voice of Old Freddy. Screw the fangirls. I stood up and before anyone could stop me, went over to the entrance, unlocked the door and said,
"Welcome Freddy, to our pizzeria."

He entered with a merry laugh.
"HEy kidDo." He said, swiping at me. I managed to duck and close the door behind me and ran inside the library. He followed me, laughing his stupid laugh. I thrust the javelin into a crack in his suit where his arm joined his shoulder. His arm fell limp, almost useless. In his working hand he held his microphone.
"Let Me pLAy a sOng FoR yOU." He spoke. I managed to somehow catch his mouth with the javelin, making his lower jaw fall to the ground. It was disturbing as we saw wires begin to hand out and an endoskeleton begin to show. Then I heard a sound which left me ears ringing and old Freddy began to stutter.
"H-heY kI-iD" he said as he collapsed. I turned to see Misty holding a gun, her face still reflecting what she had done. We all turned to her. After a second I collected myself and grabbed his head and tugged it off his costume, showing the head of the endoskeleton. I dragged it away so it wasn't staring at us and returned to my friends.
"Another freddy head." I remarked, putting it in the middle.
"How long until the rest find us?" Charlotte asked.
"I don't know, but soon..." I said, turning to face the entrance.
"Damn, I forgot to lock it." I said, about to stand up.
"I'll get it," Fiona said. And went to lock the door. She came back and we all once again played on our devices or slept. 8:10... Time was slowing to a crawl. 3hrs, 50mins. But what if it didn't end there? No, gotta think optimistic.

Nothing tried to bust in, and we all felt fine. It was 8:30 and some of us had decided to take a nap again. I mean... One of us, a.k.a. Stephanie. But then 'pop goes the weasel' got louder. And louder. Then the glass was breaking and shattering and it felt horrible, knowing your death was probably coming soon. The smiling face of the marionette looked behind bookshelves, gazed into rooms, it's stare finding its way into your soul, searching through every memory.
"Run..." Natasha whispered. It's head slowly turned towards us, a light in its eyes. There was nothing to it. We ran for our lives. I wondered if purple guy was dead. No time to think. Gotta keep running. Me being caught up in my thoughts was never good when I need to focus. I zoomed back into reality to realise I only had Stephanie by my side. We must've got split up. Holding a javelin while running without it yanking your arm was really hard.
"Come on Stephanie!" I hissed.
"Wait up!" She replied. I shooed her into the girls toilets. We had broken all Freddy's apart from golden Freddy and shadow Freddy.
"We need to survive for..." I checked my phone. "3hrs and 47minutes. do you want to survive?" I asked Stephanie. She nodded.
"Well, we got to stay safe. If at least two people make it out alive Purple guy won't win." I said.
"But how do we stay alive?" Stephanie asked.
"We stay here until it all fails." I said. So we waited, no footsteps outside. Once we heard screeching metal but we stayed quiet and were able to avoid whatever animatronic it was coming inside the bathroom.

8:40. I didn't know what was going on. I didn't want to lose another friend so I tried to be optimistic. Hard to say when you're in a dark bathroom with a friend that keeps playing crossyroad and the only thing that tips you off are audio cues. I thought about how the music got louder as the puppet approached us. I really needed to pay more attention. I sighed and leaned against the sink, listening to the occasional footsteps and the faint music of the Marionette. A few times it got louder, but faded away into its usual incessant buzz. Could we get out of this alive? I checked my phone. 8:56.
