Sunny Days and Starry Nights

Chapter 7: James Bond Moment

The alarm to start getting ready for work blared in my ears, causing a groan to emit from my throat. As usual, (S/N) was bouncing off the walls, waiting to go see Sun, Moon, and Chica once again. I was no better than (S/N) though. Meeting up with Sun every day to pick up (S/N) was my favorite moment. I would never admit it out loud but I have grown fond of the 9 ft and hyper robot. 

(S/N) was already waiting at the door, eager to be at the Daycare all day. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks. How was I going to infiltrate the Pizzaplex when I had to take (S/N) home? Sure I could drop them off quickly and discreetly but then it would be suspicious to come back when my shift was already over. Do I be stupid like every white girl in a horror film and take the chance of having (S/N) with me? Or do I tell Mom I'm hanging out with friends after my shift? Yeah, I can do that. 

"Hey, Mom are you able to pick up (S/N) after my shift? Some friends from work want to hang out for once." 

She looked up at me and thought for a minute. "I should be able to. Who are you going out with?" 

"Oh uh, Bailey and Kevin." 

"Oh, how lovely! Tell them I said hi!" Mom glanced at the time before a look of panic washed over her face. "Shoot we are both late! Hurry and get going!" 

She pushed us out of the doorway before closing it behind us. I laughed as (S/N) began to put themself securely in the car. I doubled checked to make sure they were fastened and got in the car to head off to Freddy's once more. 

The parking lot was packed full of cars, kids eager to go into the place that was closed for a week due to 'technical difficulties and maintenance'. (S/N) was already getting out of the car before I got the chance to make sure they got out safely. 

"Hey wait for me!" 

I quickly grabbed my nighttime bag and took (S/N)'s hand before trying to keep up my pace with the little gremlin. They weren't the only kid I saw dragging their parents to make it to the first opening show. The place was booming with customers as we went to the front desk of the Daycare to get (S/N) set for the day. They happily descended down the rainbow slide, giggling frantically before I took off to make it to the kitchen on time. As I entered the employee's locker room, everyone was assembled around the new manager for the kitchen. Luckily this time it was a female that seemed pretty organized and reserved with herself. 

"Alright, people listen up. Effective immediately I am your new boss. This may be a pizza establishment but I will not tolerate any childish antics. Get to work." She left the locker room while shoving past some of the other members. 

Everyone gave collective looks at each other before heading off to do their tasks before customers got too crazy for food. 

"Yeesh, someone get her a snickers," Kevin said from behind me, effectively scaring the shit out of me. "Wow didn't mean to sneak up on ya (Y/N)." 

"It's alright Kev, just didn't expect you to be there." 

He gave me a pat on the back and headed off to his post in the kitchen. I placed my bag in my locker, making sure I locked my locker as well so no one would get in. The bell for the start of our shift was rung, giving a fun little jingle as I got to my post, anxious to execute my plan for tonight. When lunch break began, I went up to Kevin and Bailey, clearly eye fucking as I sat down next to them. 

"Ok, you two get a room or eat your lunch." I laughed, causing Bailey to get a bright red hue on her cheeks. 

Kevin shied away from Bailey before coming up with a retort. "And who is your true love? One of the pat pats?" 

"Maybe but you better get to snow-white before she takes asleep, Prince Charming." I sat down with a smug smile, taking out my food from a lunch box. Kevin officially became redder than Roxy's shoulder pads while Bailey became giddy. 

"Whatever." Kevin finally said after a minute of silence from him.

"Why don't you two go on a date? All this flirting and no action is a crime against love and I will not stand for it." 

They somehow managed to shoot past the brightest and darkest shade of red you could ever imagine. Bailey stuttered a bit, trying to come up with a coherent answer. Kevin collected himself before turning towards Bailey. 

"So uh, you wanna go out to Bennys? I heard they got good food." 

Poor Kevin was so nervous about Bailey's answer.

"O-of course I'll go!" 

And that was it; their romance was officially blooming after being so long in growth. We finished up our lunches and went back to work, the new couple being weirdly quiet throughout the rest of our shift. Once the closing process began, I made sure to clock out and find an opening where I could leave without really leaving. I waited in the spot before I knew the security bots started up and the last of the guests were escorted out. Mom had picked up (S/N) like I asked so at least I didn't have to worry about that. 

The doors to the front closed, meaning it was officially 12 am and time to start my amateur detective job. I grabbed out my flashlight before making my way to the staff-only door in the main lobby. It opened up and I quickly ran out of sight from a security camera. Luckily the person who was on shift didn't seem to be occupied with the cameras or I'd be found out already. 

I changed into some more comfortable clothing that'll make it easier to sneak around in the dark before grabbing out a map of the Pizzaplex I managed to snatch earlier. I observed it before finding a good place to start finding evidence of a previous location. Before I could leave to start my journey, I heard talking coming from the lobby. It wasn't loud but it was there. I remained still before hearing the voice fade away from earshot. 

"There should only be one security guard on duty tonight," I whispered, "Maybe someone stayed late." 

I shrugged before coming out of hiding, observing the area to see if any of the security bots were near the front lobby. Luckily for me, I'm able to go through the staff-only corridors but I had limits. The Pizzaplex was relatively quiet besides the security bots being alerted by something once in a while. After a few minutes of hiding from a couple of scattered security bots and making it through the hallways, I finally made it to a door that connected to the stage. 

The neon lights weren't as vibrant as they were during the day. Kids weren't screaming for the animatronics to appear or running around like little shits. I ducked into a hiding spot near the stage so a security bot wouldn't find me. I looked around on the map and throughout the area to see if there were any doors that looks suspicious. To my dismay, there wasn't.  

"Well, I can cross out this area." I grabbed out a marker and put an X on the map that displayed the Stage Area. I decided on a pathway to follow and left my current hiding spot to continue.
