When I got to work one day, I was surprised to see every employee in the locker room. Adam, Jayden, Amanda, Isaac, Jason, Michael, and Chris. They were crowded around Amanda's phone, looking at something. We'd all become close, so I wasn't too surprised. We even managed to make a text group chat. Whatever this was, they hadn't texted about it.
"Yo, Emma." Adam's voice didn't have its useful playfulness. "You gotta hear this shit."
I opened my locker. I hadn't gotten much sleep the past few nights, from both trying to complete schoolwork to getting those strange calls from No Caller ID. "What? Did Springtrap do something?"
"Nah." Isaac was in the middle of eating a candy bar. "We got a bad review."
"What?" I spun around. That got my attention. We'd barely been open for a week. "Like I said, did Springtrap do something? I've never seen him do anything too bad."
"Nope." Adam gave Amanda's phone to her. "Read it."
Amanda cleared her throat. "It says, 'Got followed in the parking lot? We were leaving the attraction, which was great, but had to park behind the building due to the amount of people who were there. On the way back to the car, my friend and I were followed by someone in a bunny costume. He followed us closely enough to scare us, and we had to run to our car. He stood in front of our car before walking back toward the building. We had to electronically sign something that disclosed what we would be dealing with when we came to the attraction, but this was not mentioned at all. This is ridiculous! Whoever they are, they are lingering around the attraction. Watch your back.'"
I blinked a few times. "A bunny costume?"
The guys just laughed. Isaac, with his mouth full, stated, "It's fucking ridiculous, dude! We don't have any bunny suits."
"We only have two bunnies anyway." Michael was just standing in the corner. "One has no face, and one has a rotting corpse inside of it. Besides, you've been watching Springtrap the whole time, right?"
I nodded. "Yeah. I don't think he can leave the building, anyway."
Adam looked at the review again. "Nah, I think they're programmed not to wander out. Y'know, like the games. They can't get through the doors."
Jayden said, "Yeah, in the first one, right?"
Adam nodded. I just stared at the floor. "We should still worry about it, though."
That seemed to make them concerned. Isaac said, "What, you want us to tell Sam? What's he gonna do, give us more work?"
"No, no, that's not what I meant." It could've just been a bullshit review, but it was too random for me to feel comfortable about it. Bullshit reviews were usually something simple, like saying a part of the attraction was broken or closed. Not this. "I meant that we should be careful. It just isn't sitting right with me."
"Do you have a camera facing the back of the building?"
I looked at Michael. He seemed to have more of a brain than I thought. "No."
"The exit?"
"Only the inside."
We all went quiet. There had to have been a reason for that, but what? Why would Sam provide me a camera for the front of the building and not the back? If something were to happen, shouldn't we have been putting up cameras all around the building? That's what normal businesses did. If we were to get robbed or vandalized, those cameras would be our tickets to finding out who did it. However, who the fuck would be dumb enough to rob a location with an eight-foot-tall animatronic that had human impulses?
