Gregory took my hand and pulled me to the main stage, where Freddy was waiting. I silently mourned over the loss of my toy, keeping my eyes on the ground. I'd have to get back to Sun somehow. Gregory pressed a button, which caused the stage to descend. As we were slowly taken downward, Gregory tightened his grip on my hand. It hurt so I tried to pull away but that made him tighten it more.

"Where is your plushie, Superstar?" Freddy asked, pointing the question to me.

"He dropped it, it's fine," Gregory answered for me.

"N-no, it's not fine!" I looked at him as if he said the biggest lie known to man. "Gregory pulled me out of the daycare and it was still there! I didn't want to go with him!"

Freddy's eyelids tilted so he looked sympathetic. By now, the platform had stopped and we entered the upgrade room, "Parts and Services". When Gregory finished installing Roxy's eyes — I couldn't watch — Freddy complimented them.

"I can see movement through walls," He stated.

"Really? I didn't know Roxy could see through walls," Gregory muttered, astounded.

"These are Roxy's eyes?!" Freddy implored.

This caught my attention because I thought Freddy knew about what Gregory did to Chica and Roxy. Considering he helped us get into Roxy Raceway.

"Uhh, yeah... There was," Gregory hesitated. "An accident."

I glared at him for being so vague.

"Is she alright?" Freddy worried.

"Well, nothing seems to get her down," Gregory joked nervously, glancing at me and giving me a look to not butt in.

The subject was changed and the two continued to speak. I explored the area and once I realized they were not paying attention to me, I walked through one of the four doors on a platform.

I crawled through a crowded vent. As I wriggled through, small cobwebs began to get larger and more frequent. I looked around, treading more cautiously. I kept moving, goosebumps crawling up my spine. Clang, clang, clang. Something with a lot of legs was coming up behind me. I moved faster, using the toes of my shoes to push myself off in an attempt to go quicker in the crowded space. My breath became frantic as I heard the something getting closer and closer. I saw the end of the vent and jumped at it, falling out with the vent door clattering on the ground beside me. I turned around in time to see a square-headed spider robot with small symbols in its hands. I held my breath. It turned around and I heard it scamper away, back into the vent. I exhaled and felt myself tear up.

I ended up in Roxy's room. I didn't want to be there, so I left through the door leading to the main hall, Rockstar Row, I think. I didn't quite know how to get to the daycare from there, but I decided to try to find it anyways.

I managed to avoid Chica as she roamed. The security bots did slow me down a little when they suddenly picked me up, but they didn't sound an alarm like they did with Gregory.

I jumped onto an unusually tall plant pot and held onto the tree. I did a 360° spin, attempting to find my way. I whimpered, still unsure of where to go. Suddenly I was lifted by my armpits, causing me to let out a scream.

"Hey, little guy, whatcha doing there?" Monty asked, placing me on his shoulders and holding my ankles.

I held onto his head. Anxiety formed at the pit of my stomach as tears welled up in my eyes. Looking to the ground, I felt a little dizzy. I only responded to his question with another sob as salty tears ran down my face.
