Part XXII: Eye of the Storm

The tunnels dragged on longer than Y/N thought. They had been following Vanny for about half an hour before finding a large open area.

The rancid air was twice as thick down here, and Y/N was finding it hard to breath without throwing up in her mouth a little. It felt like her lungs would explode if she took too deep a breath.

Monty kept a firm and protective grip around her waist in a strange attempt to reassure her.

"Just this way, not too much further!" Vanny hummed as she skipped into another part of the open area. It looked like this is where they dumped their trash, which was pretty unethical but now was hardly the time to be thinking about it.

Vanny skipped into the large area and spun on her heels to face them. "I'll go and tell him your here, wait here!"

And again, she spun enthusiastically on her heels and skipped away. For a few seconds they all sat in silence.

"I think I know why Monty can't see her" Bonnie whispered, unsure of the bunny lady was still in earshot.

Y/N and Monty leaned in closer, eager to hear. "Before Monty was around, the whole band had these little disks on our chest cavity's. For a while we didn't know what they were until they ran a few tests with em. They... they realised a frequency that could alter the way people saw us"

"Why would they need to do that?" Y/N asked.

"It was only small changes at first. They would hide the seems between our limbs to make us look more alive, but parents were complaining it was freaky. After that, all the testing was private, and it got more drastic. Once, they used it to completely change Roxy's look for a while. After about a month, they got rid of em. I think that Vanny lady somehow found one and is using the frequency to make her invisible to animatronics"

Monty's brows furrowed. "How come you can see her?"

Bonnie tapped his eyes. "I got upgraded when they remade me. My eyes are brand new tech, so the frequency she's using doesn't affect me since it's directed at older stuff"

Y/N chewed her lip. If that was really what was going on, they had to find out where it was and get it off of her. "Bonnie, where did you say he chips were hidden in you guys?"

Bonnie tapped his chest. "Chest cavity, but me and Fred had it in our bow ties"

Y/N nodded, her mind flashing to the huge blue bow around Vanny's neck. "We need to find a way to get that bow off her, I think it's in there. Getting it off might no be enough, so we'll have to smash the disk inside too, if I'm right"

They all shared a look and nodded. Now, they just needed to figure out this other person.

Almost on cue, Vanny came skipping back in, wheeling something in via wheelchair. It wasn't until she stopped un front of them they could see what it was.

It almost looked like Bonnie, if it wasn't so charred and mouldy. Bare endo was visible on every limb, and Y/N couldn't tell if it had wired poking out from limbs or if it was leaking some kind of thick, black slime. It's lifeless arms where crossed in his lap and it's head was limp.

"Is... is this what's been causing all this?"

Vanny chuckled and threw the wheelchair forward, sending the thing face-first into the ground. Y/N heard a wet splat and tried not to gag.

"Oh, no, no, no! Well, it used to be, but we made a much better body for him. We wouldn't need to if he got your bunny Boys body, but we had to resort to an old one we found down here until we built a better one"

A loud shuffling came from the direction the Bunny lady had just come from, and Y/N felt her stomach slowly sinking. Both Monty and Bonnie took a step in front of her.
