Writing His Own Beginning (Slow Progress)

The End To A Beginning

Monty's POV

It's been a few weeks since I was in the parts and servers waiting for my repairs to be completed. This was my twenty-third attempt to function properly for my new responsibilities.

I turned to my right and saw a bunny, or what was left of one. I believe his name was Bonnie. When we first met here, he was a nice guy, and it seemed like yesterday...

~~~

Vanessa said that this was his last time being with his friends, I thought he would be devastated by this information, but I was surprised to see him nod in understanding.

He looked at me and smiled. "Hello, we never officially met, but my name is Bonnie, and you're going to replace me.... I've seen you around here before at Gator Golf. It's Monty, right?" Bonnie asked as he sat down beside me.

I nodded my head since my voice box was getting updated, so I could sing those stupid songs perfectly. "Well, Monty, I-I wish we could have met sooner. You seem like a nice guy." Bonnie said, I noticed Bonnie looked sad all of a sudden. What was he sad about? Was he sad about being decommissioned? Maybe because he's leaving his friends behind.

I placed my hand on Bonnie's shoulder and smiled at him. He looked back at me smiling  brightly. "I want to apologize for attacking you before... I don't know what got into me, but it was like a switch flipped inside me." Bonnie explained apologetically as Vanessa entered the room.

"It's time, Bonnie; do you have anything you'd like to say to Monty before you leave? Even though you don't know him." She asked, placing a hand on her hip, looking a bit sad about Bonnie leaving.

"Of course! Monty," Bonnie replied, "I want you to have these." I glanced at him, perplexed, as he handed me his sunglasses.

"Monty, one day you're going to realize how much of a difference you're going to make. They'll never find what they're looking for until you show them that you can shine just as bright as they can." Bonnie spoke softly as he looked at Vanessa before nodding. I was confused by those words, but I figured that eventually I would understand what they meant.

The machine finally gave me my voice box back, and before Bonnie left for good, I got up and hugged him. "Thank you, Bonnie. I'll never be as good as you, but...I'm glad that you and I could begin a friendship even though it won't last." I muttered as Bonnie hugged me back. "I'll always be your friend no matter what happens to me, but think of this as a new beginning rather than a sad ending."

"Monty? Monty! MONTY!!!"

I snapped back to reality and saw Vanessa waving a hand in between me and what was left of Bonnie...his endoskeleton.

"What!? What!? I'm not going deaf, I can hear you. I just choose not to listen." I replied, standing up from my sit before stretching.

"Funny, but I'm being serious. The others aren't going to enjoy having you here at first, but once they get to know you, they'll love you just as much as Bonnie. Though I can't say much about Freddy, oh boy, he's going to hate you." I stopped my stretching and frowned at her sentence.

'Great, the lead singer is going to hate me, just because I'm replacing one of his band members? I understand his pain, but he didn't watch Bonnie get taken apart like I did, so he wouldn't be as traumatized.' I thought walking up to Vanessa.

"Bonnie was the one who-" "Right, Bonnie was the one who attacked you...let's not bring it up with the others; it will upset them to think Bonnie would do such a thing. Especially Freddy." Vanessa said as she interrupted me pacing around the room.

I rolled my eyes and put the sunglasses Bonnie gave me on. Bonnie has been gone for about four weeks, and I've been stuck in the parts and servers for another two weeks as a result of those... stupid updates.

I scowled at the endoskeleton of Bonnie. 'Why did you have to leave for? Forcing your responsibilities on me, making me feel hatred for myself, and now I'm going to be hated on by others!? Some 'friend' you are.'

My thoughts swarmed around me like a bunch of bees. I looked at the endoskeleton once more, but this time I saw that warm, fuzzy smile. Bonnie was smiling at me, like the day we met here.

An overwhelming feeling overtook me as I broke the endoskeleton in half. I can't go, I can't do this. I can't do this. "I CAN'T DO THIS!" I yelled, throwing half of the endoskeleton through a glass window.

I paused looking at Vanessa. Seeing that she had fear across her face because of my sudden shout of stress and physically watched me throw half of what was left of Bonnie through the window.

I covered my eyes after I threw the sunglasses in some random direction. This was too much for me. "I didn't want to be in the band! I didn't want Bonnie to leave, and I don't want them to hate me for this!" I shouted as I started to hyperventilate slightly as tears began to roll down my face no matter how hard I was covering my eyes.

"MONTY! Listen to me, you are the toughest gator I know... well, the only gator I know, but the point is, you are strong. You can't let Bonnie get to you like this or the others for that matter." She said and grabbed my hands so I would look at her. My distressed eyes looked back at her when some hesitation to look away.

"You are your own animatronic. You don't need to be known as the one who replaced Bonnie. Show them that you take no crap from anyone, show them that words or hateful stares wouldn't stop you from being yourself." She said, patting my shoulder. I smiled weakly before wiping my tears away and began looking for the sunglasses.

Once I found the sunglasses, I put them on and followed Vanessa out of the room. I wasn't really focusing on the fact that I was about to be introduced to the rest of the band. I was more focused on my mental breakdown I had a few minutes ago.

"For now, you still sleep in Gator Golf since Bonnie's room-I mean, your room is still under construction. They should be almost done though." Vanessa said as she opened a door that led to Rockstar Row?!

When did we get here? I thought, nervously messing with my hands, Vanessa smiled at me and told me to wait here as she went to get the others. I quickly removed the sunglasses, hiding them to make the tension less intense.

She went to Roxy's green room first, then Chica's, and last but not least, Freddy's room.

Oh boy, please don't let this get out of hand.
