Freddy and the Glamrocks (FNAF Security Breach AU)

Eavesdropping - Chapter 7

    

     The Glamrocks settled in at the Wilde's house for the night. Roxy got caught up with her annoying older brother. Monty trimmed around all of Manny's flowerbeds in the garden. Chica helped Foxy cook up dinner for the crew. There wasn't a ton of room in the house so most of the Glamrocks crowded up into two rooms to sleep with Chica and Roxy in one, and Freddy Monty and Gregory in the other.

Gregory didn't need to sleep, but what he did need was to charge his battery. It was already getting late into the night and he hadn't seen Freddy come back to the room they were supposed to sleep in. He decided that he would sneak outside and into the van to charge his battery. He looked out the window and decided that while it would be the fastest, he might also damage himself. He didn't want Freddy to be blamed for any damages he incurred! So, with no other options, he took the door. Monty was dead asleep, rolled onto his stomach with his butt in the air. He was face down on the mattress snoring like a lawn mower. He doubted that Freddy would be able to get any sleep when he returned.

Gregory crept out of the room on his tippitoes and out into the hall. He passed by the other rooms with no incident, but he did hear some sniffling and whispering from the girls room. He shook off his worry and mild curiosity and continued on to the stairs. Crick...crick...crick... practically every other floor board squeaked! He saw the carpet at the end of the stairs and just decided to jump down the last few steps. He made it down safely, but now what?

He could faintly hear someone talking, and it sounded like they were outside. It was in the same direction as the front door... he was screwed! He went into the kitchen to see if there was another way out. Alas, he was out of luck. If he wanted to reach the van, he had to go through the front porch. The low battery signal started to flash at 25%, he really needed to see who was there and if he could go past them.

Slowly opening the front door just enough to look and hear better, Gregory prepared himself to book it. Outside the house was what looked to be Foxy, but he was facing away from the door so he couldn't see well. And in front of him was Freddy, smoking a cigarette. Gregory didn't think that Freddy smoked, but maybe he only did it sometimes? He shoved aside the distracting thought and listened in on their conversation. He would just signal to Freddy at a good opportunity and hope he could sneak behind Foxy's turned back. He only had one good eye anyways.

"It's been 5 years now huh? Time really flies... it's the anniversary of his death tomorrow, but I'm sure you can't forget that," Foxy spoke, but his tone was notably more subdued and cautious. Like he was trying to say something while also tiptoeing around it altogether.

Freddy sighed and took another long drag of the cigarette. He looked really tired, but not angered by the conversation, "I'll go out to visit him... can I take some of the flowers from your garden? I'll pay you back,"

"Nah don't worry about that, it's the least I can do since I can't go myself. I have to head back into the city for the next week at my job. Being a janitor sucks ass, but it pays well enough. I guess Blue Bonnet doesn't treat their employees like garbage anymore,"

Freddy finished off the cigarette and stamped it out on the ashtray. He then turned to Ford and asked, "Yeah about that, what is it like at Blue Bonnet? Do you... see much of the labs?"

"Not much, I mostly clean on the upper floors once they're done with everything. But I have heard some really awful stories about the place. Ghostly screaming at night n'shit, strange machinery sounds in the vents and walls. My co-worker has gotten some bad ptsd from it somehow, but hey, all in the name of progress. Besides, the police have combed through that place before and found zip, zilch, nada. Maybe it's just one of the guards playing pranks. They current tech they're working on though?" Foxy smirked and whistled, "now that's something! I was able to sit in on one of the experiments. They had this crazy looking skeleton machinery and it was able to talk and shit! Damn thing could even solve some puzzles that had me thrown for a loop. Apparently it's going to be their next big release, a robot companion that can do just about anything for you. Some really cool stuff, almost makes me sad that I gave up on robotics..."
