-Freddy Pov-


     Me, Chica, and Bonnie were all performing a song for the kids, and it was fun to watch their faces and hear their applause as we finished. Every time we have kids to entertain, I get full of some unexplainable happiness, and I smile, walking off the stage and leading the children.

     "Now it's time for some of Captain Foxy's stories! Take it away Foxy!" I told Foxy as the curtains in pirate's cove opened to reveal him. Every time he tells a story, the children love to listen to him explaining exactly how he took down whatever monster he was fighting at the time. Everything was going fine, but then I got a bad feeling about something in the middle of singing a song, like something was going to happen. I looked around and saw nothing happening, so I focused on getting the lyrics right.

     After the song was over, I took another look around and saw that nothing else had happened. That only somehow worsened the dread I had for a bad event of some kind to happen. Luckily, we made it through the day without any mistakes.

     "I made pizza for everyone!" Chica says, carrying a tray with a stack of 3 pizzas, one on top of the other. I took a seat and started eating the pizza slowly. Apparently, she noticed. "Why the long face? Did something happen today?" She asked worriedly.

     "No, nothing's wrong, I just had a feeling that something bad was going to happen. I don't know why, but I was worried all day." I said, being entirely honest doing so. "I just wish that I know what might happen, so I could try and prevent it."

     "I understand what you're feeling," said Chica through a mouth full of pizza, "and I wish that I could help, but that kind of thing is the stuff that you have to do alone. Mostly because I don't have a feeling that something wrong is going to happen.

     "I agree!" Bonnie chimed in. "I've had that feeling before, and then a couple of hours later I tripped over a loose board and fell off stage. You guys remember that?"

     "Like it was yesterday!" Everyone else said laughing.

     "So now ye know ye aren't the only one with these problems." said Foxy.

     "Yeah, I guess you're right. But I'm full, so I'm going to go to bed now, alright?" I told them.

     "You get that rest man!" Bonnie said, punching me in the shoulder playfully. I made my way down the hallway and into my room, greeted by a strangely warm bed. The warmth was comforting, and I feel asleep quickly.

-Foxy Pov-

     Freddy went to his room, and I hoped that he didn't notice I was in there. I had been taking a nap in his bed because I love the way he smells. I was being careful not to be caught in there by anyone. Luckily, I wasn't, but I may have left some fur, or something barely noticeable where he could see it. It doesn't matter though.

     "So, what story did you tell the kids today?" Chica asked me, trying to break the awkward silence lingering after Freddy left.

     "I told them about having to fight off a giant sea worm to make sure me ship wouldn't sink to the bottom of the ocean. It got quite dramatic at the end, but the wee kids sure did enjoy it." I explained. There was more silence after I finished explaining what I had told the kids, only interrupted by the occasional chewing and swallowing of pizza.
