"Who's Vanny?" Nel asked me, once she had calmed down and we had made it to Freddy's room.

"That's Vanessa when she's possessed by the remains of a serial killer from the 80's," I explained.

"How do you know all of this, though?" She asked me.

I looked at her with a hint of sadness in my eyes and said, "I did my research in case this happened again. And now, I'm glad I did."

She nodded and asked me what we should do next. Freddy wasn't in his room, but we couldn't just sit here and wait with our fingers tied.

I suggested that we get my old flashlight from Freddy's room and recharge it using a recharge station.

I asked her to help me and she did. Using all of our strength, we moved the couch's left side forwards enough that I could get into the floor hatch.

When I had first come back, I had set up several emergency kits wherever I could.

There was one in each green room, one in the vent system, one in the daycare, three downstairs, one in every security office, and one in each mini-location, such as El Chip's or Roxy Raceway.

I grabbed the flashlight and grabbed the Fazerblaster.

Nel helped me move the couch back, and I told her it was safest to travel through the back. She told me we should get going then, so I led her through.

My only problem was that Vanessa had said it would never happen again, so she took my security badges.

And almost all the doors were locked.

I led her through the hallways, and eventually found a recharge station. There was an extra flashlight there as well.

Nel took it, and smiled at me. Her smile quickly faded, however.

She had a look of confusion on her face. I looked behind me to see what was bothering her so much, and saw Vanny skipping towards us. When I saw her, my sight glitched.

"Is that... A floating knife?" Nel asked aloud.

Now I was confused. "Can you not see her?" I asked.

"Her who? There's just a knife floating towards us in the air," Nel replied.

"That's really weird. You and Freddy can't see Vanny, but I can? Makes no sense," I said to myself.

I snapped out of it just in time. Vanny was almost to us. I grabbed Nel's hand and dragged her away.

My sight was glitching so bad, though, that I could barely see where I was going.

We ran all the way back to the main area nearby. This happened to be the atrium.

"Freddy's not here, either?" Nel asked. "Is he broken or something?"

An idea sparked in my head. What if Vanny had dismantled him so that he couldn't help us?!

I dragged her a bit farther away.

We ran all the way back to Freddy's room, completely out of breath from all the running.

"Y'know," Nel started, heaving in breaths between her words, "I wouldn't be in this mess if you hadn't brought me here."

"Y'know, last time I checked I gave you the option to not stay the night here. You said you were cool with staying."

"Yeah well, what did you expect me to do? Stay on the streets all by myself the first night I'm out there?!" She asked me, raising her voice.
