"I really messed up this time..." Freddy said to himself, sighing at the reflection in the mirror. "He's never gotten that upset before... I just didn't think he could handle the truth..." He said with a sigh. He touched the mirror, feeling the cold glass under his fingers. "Especially now... what with Jessi... and Chica, Tee Chee, and Bonnie... I don't want to lose him too... "
Freddy laughed a bit, smudging the mirror with his palm, leaving the bathroom. He froze a bit, glancing over at the sign next to the door "Oops... went into the girls bathroom again... blast... " He said, laughing again. It was an awful habit he had even when he was a kid. He shrugged anyway. There were no more girls around to judge him anyway.
Continuing, he headed into the main stage area, looking around at the room. Bonnie was almost always gone, and now Foxy had Chica in that maze of a basement. Freddy was content to just sit by himself and wait for his brother to come back. If he ever did. He sat in one of the chairs, groaning at the loud creak it made from under him, laughing a bit. The only light shining in the room was the one emergency light in the middle, barely lighting up the entire room. He looked up at the small stars hanging from the ceiling, he was sure they were the same ones from the old place.
"They don't waste a single penny... I guess they don't have that luxury... They might even be bankrupt for all I know... and now with all this stuff happening... I'm not sure how much longer this place has... " He said, looking away from the ceiling for the moment. He closed his eyes, thinking about his family and especially about Foxy. "Should I have told him...?" He said "I... maybe should have... maybe me trying to protecting him ended up hurting him more... I mean, Foxy doesn't act that way... he doesn't have such dramatic moments like that... ever... " He admitted, shaking his head "I should have told him... I guess I didn't think much of it to be fair... I mean... he made our Mom so angry... so upset... and I didn't think much of it at the time... but our father was a Monster too... I guess we followed in his footsteps perfectly..."
"Um... sorry to intrude... but um..." Someone said behind him. Freddy's eyes shot open, looking around the room for him. He stopped, noting the destroyed, smashed rabbit he saw before. "I... I think"
"You!" Freddy said, nearly falling back. "You're that guy again, aren't you!" Freddy said, clenching his fists. "You're the one... you're the reason all this happened..."
"No! Not me!" He said, making Freddy huff. "Look... my name is Fritz... the man who murdered you... he's-"
"Shut up!" Freddy said, standing up and grabbing him. "Don't try to-"
"...he's my brother..." He said, making Freddy raise an eyebrow. "A long time ago... when my brother and I were born... he died... and he was attached to my body... his soul I mean."
"That makes no sense! And I certainly don't buy it!"
"Wait! Hear me out." The bunny said, wiping his forehead "I don't really understand much... I don't, but I do know one thing. He was evil, deadly to the core. He and I shared bodies, I controlled it sometimes, then he did. We were the same person, yet completely different people. He killed you... using my body... "
"Wait... so... you just... you were used?" Freddy said. The bunny nodded, feeling a bit awkward. Freddy sighed, letting go of him. "As ridiculous as that sounds... I think you're telling the truth... considering what happened to me and my friends..."
"That's not all I had to say... your Father... did you know him? Did you know his name?" He asked.
"Yeah... he was my namesake... Frederick. I wasn't happy about that though..." Freddy said. The rabbit sighed, looking away for a moment.
"Oh... I-... I'm sorry... we didn't know who you two were at the time... if I would have known... I might have been able to convince Puritz to spare you... b-but-"
"Wait, what?" Freddy said. Before SpringTrap could continue, the Parts and Services room bursted open, and from the dark room emerged Foxy, Chica in his arms. He was ecstatic at first, but upon seeing Springtrap, his brow rose in confusion.
"Freddy?" He said, looking from him to Springtrap. "W-Where did he come from? W-who is he?"
"Um..." Freddy started, looking from Springtrap to Foxy, unsure of how to answer. He wasn't sure himself.
"Oh... that's Reynard... isn't it?" Springtrap said, looking at Foxy carefully. "He was only a little baby the first time I saw him..."
"Wait... what?" Foxy and Freddy said. The looked at each other curiously, then back to Springtrap. He sighed, motioning to the seat next to him.
"Your Father and I, well mostly Puritz, were best friends growing up. Frederick was not a good man... he had been arrested at least 7 times. Each time, though, I was the one left to bail him out with some of the money we had stolen. It was bittersweet relationship... If it had been just me, I would have kicked him to the curb, but it was Puritz that was interested in him. It wasn't until the murder that I had finally had enough," He said.
"What murder, Springtrap?" Freddy asked. Foxy and Freddy were sitting across from him, chewing on pizza as the stared into his pure white eyes. Spring trap motioned towards the box, and only after Freddy handed him a slice of the pizza did he continue.
"Well... it was your Father that did it. He was acting so strange that day... I never expected him to just Murder him like that." He said. "There was a little child, staring into one of the doors... it was before your current bodies were created... though you and Reynard were born at the time... but... your Father's eye gleamed... and he grabbed the knife from the glovebox and got out the car... and he... he just-"
"Just stop..." Foxy said, holding up his hand. "I've been hearing enough of this... did you know Freddy?"
"...not the details... but when Father came home that day, our mom saw the blood and asked him to leave... he never came back..." Freddy said, sighing. Foxy scratched his head with his hook, looking down at his pizza.
"So... the fact that mom and the twins haven't come to see is..."
"Either they think were gone... or Mom thinks we'll end up just like him... most likely the latter is it..." He said. He looked over at Foxy, who had tears falling from his eyes. "I-It's ok Foxy... He was a bad man... just as Springtrap said... but... he isn't you... you're not him. No... you are much more than him. You are still pure... don't worry about them... don't worry about him... I still love you regardless about what our past is clouded with..." Freddy said, grabbing his brother.
"Yar... ye embarrassing me..." Foxy joked, shoving him away. Freddy laughed, patting his head. Foxy laughed too, wiping the tears from his eyes. "I... I love ye too Freddy... I sorry I yelled at ye... I never should have acted that way... and Since I did I feel so bad about it... do ye forgive me?" Foxy asked.
"Oh... of course I do, I should have told you sooner... I guess it was just so hard to say..."
"Um... guys... uh..." Springtrap said "The bird is moving.."
"W-What!?" Foxy said, looking over at the stage. Sure enough, Chica had gotten up and began walking over to him. Before long, she stood right in front of him, smiling warmly. "Chica..." He said, touching her face with his hand. He hugged her tightly, crying into her shoulder.
"Foxy... you know what come next right?" Chica said, still smiling. Tears welled up in her eyes too, and soon the stained her cheeks as well. Foxy nodded, hugging her and kissing her beak. He turned to Freddy.
"Freddy... I'm gonna miss you..." He said, hugging the bear too. Freddy showed him a look of confusion.
"uh... huh?" Freddy said, raising an eyebrow.
"We should hurry up Foxy... can't stay here too long..." Chica warned. Foxy nodded, giving his brother one last hug.
"I love you Freddy, and whatever it is that's keeping you here, I hope you figure it out soon and leave this place... once you do we'll be able to leave... and we can see each other again..." Foxy said, walking over to Chica. The both smiled warmly, and Foxy picked her up and began swinging her around, making her giggle.
"Wait! I don't understand!" Freddy said, his brain still processing everything. Foxy and Chica continued laughing and dancing together, and before Freddy could ask another question, their souls were gone, joining Ben as the waited for just one more Friend to join them in the afterlife.
