FNIA: The Forgotten Soul

39: Repairs Needed

EVAN POV:

“Time to get to work.” I spoke to myself as I clocked on for my shift. I had to go back to the locker room to do so as that was where the card punch machine was. It didn't actually punch cards like they used to. But I could never be bothered to remember the name of the digital clocking devices so I just referred to it as the card puncher.

As I exited the locker room I could hear Ballora humming to herself up in the office. It was a tune I could somewhat recognise. But not from where, just that it sounded familiar.

“Looks like you have a busy night tonight.” Chica’s voice said to my right.

Looking over I saw Chica, Mari, Bonnie, and Freya. All 4 of them needed maintenance tonight. My list said that Chica needed her neck repaired. I was already aware of Bonnie’s faulty hip joint. Mari was due to have her battery replaced. And Freya was having an old coolant line in her chest replaced.

So in other words over half of the performing Anime-tronics required maintenance tonight.

"Yeah. But um. Freya, where are your clothes?" I asked with a blush as I noticed that Freya had walked up in only her black panties. Leaving the rest of her body on display.

"Would you rather I take my clothes off in front of you so you can fix my chest?" Freya replied with a raised eyebrow and teasing smirk. "I didn't take you as someone who liked strip teasing."

"Oh how hilarious." I responded sarcastically with a deadpan expression. "Maybe I should do a pressure test on that coolant line before I replace it."

"Ooh. Well played Evan." Freya said with a light laugh as she and the others followed me into Parts and Service.

"I don't get it." Chica said with confusion as she sat herself down on the work bench behind the dividing wall, where I was going to fix all 4 of them. "What would be so bad about a pressure test?"

"If Evan performed one while she still had the old line in, there is a chance the line would burst." Mari replied bluntly as she leaned herself against the wall to wait her turn.

"Yep." I replied with a shrug as I grabbed my tools. "Ok I'll get your neck fixed first Chica. After you, I'll get to work on Bonnie's hip."

"Works for me." Bonnie said with a shrug as she sat herself down at the other end of the work bench. "Just make sure you don't let your hands wander too far~."

"Save it for later Bonnie." Freya said with a blunt tone. "I'd rather not watch you fuck him in front of us."

"Says the one who once had sex with a guy on one of the tables in the middle of the party room." Bonnie retorted back with a mischievous grin. By that point I had chosen to mainly focus on fixing Chica's neck and ignore their bickering, even if I could still hear what they were saying.

"We both know that was different." Freya responded with slight embarrassment seeping into her voice.

"Just because you litterally fucked the guy to death doesn't change the fact that you had sex in clear view of the stage and kids corner." Bonnie said with the same mischievous tone. "Heck you were even within sight of the main door. All it would take was for the lights to have been turned on at the time and anyone who drove past would have witnessed a sexual murder."

“Ok ok. You've made your point.” Freya said with a tired sigh.

“Mind holding still Chica.” I said with slight frustration as I tried to fix the broken hydraulic in her neck. “If you keep moving your head this hydraulic is going to spring loose and break something.”

“It’s not easy when you have a broken neck joint Evan.” Chica argued back with gritted teeth.

“What’s with the face Chica?” Freya asked behind me as I heard her lean herself against the metal shelving behind me. “You look a little flustered.”
