You were roaming the corridors in hopes to find something interesting. The time flew by very quickly without you even noticing it. You didn't find anything or anyone on the second floor so you decided that it would be best to wait in the "Party Hall" as it was called in the map. The clock struck six and you started hearing shuffling in one of the corridors. The distant voice seemed to be calming itself down and setting it up for another night at the pizzeria. Finally a tall silhouette showed up in a door frame.
-Well,would you look at that. Late,as always...Huh?- The person finally noticed you. They made their way out of the shadows and could finally see it was. It was a tall man, around 6'4, dressed in a ,again ,you took a guess, night-guard uniform.His hands and all the body parts that were exposed to one's eye were covered in bandages and he had a phone for a head. A PHONE FOR A HEAD.Well, you knew it was some sort of mask or a helmet of sorts but you were utterly confused why he was wearing it when the pizzeria is closed and no one (except for Chris) is around. You were standing in one place at a loss for words. I mean what can you say to a man who wears a rotary-red-phone for a head!? The man slowly approached you, noticing your confusion.- Hello?-His voice sounded a bit husky but in a more alluring manner.
-Uhhh, sorry, name's Y/N, nice to meet you!- You hurriedly held out your hand to him, shaking with nervousness.-I'm a new employee for the night shift.And I guess you are the man who sent me an acceptance email yesterday.-You were desperately trying not to stare at the man's head.
-Oh,well, hello ,little one,hehe-The awkward silence fell in between you two,as the phone guy was towering above.-It is nice to meet you too. But I guess I'll save my greeting for the official meeting which is...-He looked at his wrist at an old-fashioned watch.-...in about an hour! Sorry, gotta go, erm, do something in the safe rooms,completely forgot about that,hehe.
Your hand was still held out but the man ran off in the direction of a dark west wing on the first floor.More confused than ever in your life you decided: why not to follow him? Great idea, right? Anyway, you did exactly that. The west wing was exceptionally dim and the air seemed to be stuffy. Looking at your feet you noticed some kind of staining on the floor. It looked like dried blood but you convinced yourself it was just paint or ketchup that Chris hasn't cleaned yet.
You found the phone man sitting in the corner of safe room with his head, I mean his mask, hidden in his arms. What was he so afraid of? Did you scare him away by the intense staring that happened earlier? You decided to leave him be and not to distract him from his own thoughts. It is not the right time nor is it the right place for you to be breaking into someone's personal space. You sighed and walked back to the "Party Hall".
You sat down at one of the children tables.You felt really small because the table was perfect for your height.Then Chris materialized out of the thin air and spooked you from behind.You laughed at his attempt to scare you because he made the most ridiculous face possible.
-Chris!-You laughed- That was a good one, I've got to admit.
-Well, you looked like you were a little out of it so I thought cracking a laugh would help!-He smiled with all his teeth.
-You are sweet,you know that?-you propped your head on your hand, looking Chris in the eyes.-Why do care about me? I mean, we only met today and don't really know each other...Actually, I wanted to say thank you for that...Human decency is not a very common thing these days.-you sighed.
Chris blushed and took your hand in his.
-I just think that everybody deserves to be treated well.Also, you just look like you've seen some serious shit so having someone like that around will only add to the gang we have here.If something's on your mind just tell me.-He smiled.-I am taking it too far,aren't I?Heh...-Chis says,letting go of your hand.-Sorry 'bout that,honeypie~
-It's fine-You nodded.-It's good to finally have a friend~
-A...A friend?-Chris looked surprised.-You think I can be a good friend?
-You seem pretty grounded and goofy,caring and you act like a big bro...-you took a little pause,looking into the change of Chris's facial expressions.-And as a nice bonus: you are actually very attractive.-You noticed a slight tint of red on his cheeks.-Please don't take it the wrong way! It's kind of how I am...Too straight forward sometimes. People usually don't like it...-You looked away.
-That makes the two of us, don't worry~-The man smiled,leaning back in his chair and putting his hands behind his head.-I am actually pleased to hear such things sometimes...Just knowing that you don't have any hidden intentions behind your words is nice.-He closed his eyes,yawning.-What time is it,honeypie?
-One second...-You took out your phone.-It is...6:55...Why?-you tilted your head to the side.
Chris didn't answer.Numerous male voices and the sound of the main entrance door opening cleared everything up.The others are here. You got up from your seat and faced the entrance.The four other man entered the room. All of them were already dressed in their uniform.But one guy in particular really stood out.
HE.WAS.PURPLE.
And not just dressed in purple,all of him was purple:skin,clothes,hair-everything.But the most captivating part about him were his eyes: they were blank.Just big,pure white eyes.The man stood there with a creepy toothy grin,eyeing you up and down. Your mind was blown away. I mean, you knew that people don't just come in one skin color and a particular set of facial features but you've never heard about "purple" people let alone seen them. Your jaw dropped. And your face was painted with a visible confusion.Then the phone man showed up once again.
-YOU SHOULD'VE BEEN HERE AN HOUR AGO!-The man yelled,standing in the middle of the hall.
-Yeah-Yeah,Scott,calm down...-One of the guys sighed.-You know there is no need for any of us to show up six hours before our shift.-This man had a rough but at the same time deep and rich voice.He was pale,almost sickly pale.Tall, around 5'8, a little more buff than Chris and the Phone man,he had magnificent blue eyes that looked right into your soul. One of his arms was covered in bandages and stained with blood near the elbow.
-DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!-Scott, as you assumed his real names was, snarled.-Anyway, we have a meeting to attend.The new member of the crew is here.-He pointed in your direction.
-H-Hello?-You slightly waved your hand.
-Yeah,whatever...-The blue-eyed man hissed.
-Mike!
-What? Do they KNOW, like actually KNOW, what this place is all about?-his face was full of disgust.
-Well,maybe you'll tell me.-You sarcastically smiled,crossing your arms.
Nobody expected such an answer from your small persona. Chris put both of his thumbs up as a gesture of approval. Every single one of five man fixated their gaze on you :some with an interest an some with the desire to choke you right there and then.Scott tried to clear the air but ,honestly, he only made it worse.
-I...Ermmm... Guys, let's maybe talk about it!-He was desperately trying to get their attention.-Meeting?Remember?
-Mike,let's just forget it...It's their first d-day...-Said a guy with fluffy ash-brown hair.He looked young.Almost like a teenager.
-Fine.-He huffed.-We are not finished.-He gave you a menacing look.
Scott sighed in disappointment and then everybody followed him into one of the offices. The purple man to your right had a mischievous grin plastered on his face the whole time. The guy with bright ginger hair was walking right next to you.Most of his face was covered with his huge thick glasses.He was slightly bigger than the other guys and had adorable squishy cheeks. He was not very tall but still taller than you are. His face was dotted with freckles of various sizes.At one point he looked at you with a slight smile on his lips. Mike and the teenage boy were walking in front of you talking about something about the new facial recognition system in the animatronics.
Once you got to your destination Scott turned around on his heels facing each and every one of you.
-H-OOoookay!-He started his speech.-As all of you know we now have one more member added to list of employees at Freddy FazBear Pizzeria! This is Y/N and starting today she's gonna work here!Let's look...-He got your file from one of the drawers.-She works full time,both day and night shifts...Risky!-Scott chuckled.
-Wait a second: day AND night?- Your eyes widened.-I only applied for the night shift!
-I did not write your application so you should ask yourself about that!-He shrugged his shoulders.-Now,introduce yourself!
You reluctantly stepped closer to the spot where Scott was standing and turned around to face the "crowd".
-Uh, I guess I already introduced myself to some of you-Chris's face broke into a sly smile.-But I will do it once more. My name is Y/N, I'm 22, I just dropped out of college and I am in desperate need of money,yeah. Also I am a little mentally unstable,heh...I love cats and coffee...I guess that's even more than you should know-You gulped out of nervousness, starting to fidget again.-I guess that's all. Any questions?
The purple man jokingly raised his hand which most definitely shocked Scott.
-Miss Y/N, how come you ended up un such rotten place like this one?-His laugh sounded like growling.-There are definitely better places for such pretty little things like yourself.-He murmured observing your reaction to sweet names. The man looked older than everybody else, even his voice sounded more mature.
-Money,not knowing what to do with my life,desparate need of socialization...-You started counting on your fingers.-That was the only place that did not required a degree.Also, I am not that pretty to become a hooker-You quipped.
The purple man looked like he was satisfied with your answer. Chris on the other hand looked like he was about to burst out laughing.Mike rolled his eyes.Scott coughed, trying to make everything less awkward.
-Please,language...-He sighed.-Well,these are the people that you are about to work with! The man who always wears a hat is Mike,he's a grumpy one but I am sure you'll find middle ground!This is Jeremy-Scott pointed at the teenager-The fella next to him is Fritz-Ginger waved and smiled.-The grape-like type is Vincent...
-Hey!At least I don't have a phone for a head!
-Khm...Anyway, the janitor is Chris.And,now officially,I am Scott.If you will need something or you have any questions fell free to speak to me.Now to the educational part !As you may already know this place has been around for god knows how long!Funny,haha, I think god actually left this place a while ago!There are two floors the "Offices" and the "Party Hall". The "Party Hall" is where the whole fun happens! Now that might sound bad, I know. But there's really nothing to worry about.Uh, the animatronic characters here do get a bit quirky at night, but do I blame them? No! If I were forced to sing... those same stupid songs for twenty years, and I never got a bath? I'd probably be a bit irritable at night too. So remember: these characters hold a special place in the hearts of children, and you need to show them a little respect.
-Like those douchebags ever showed US any respect-Mike huffed again.
-Mike!-Scott got irritated but composed himself at the right moment.- So just be aware: the characters do tend to wander a bit. Uhh, they're left in some kind of "free-roaming mode" at night. Uhh... something about their servos locking up if they get turned off for too long. Uhh... they used to be allowed to walk around during the day, too, but then there was the Bite of '87. Yeah... I-It's amazing that the human body can live without the frontal lobe, you know?-Scott talked and talked and talked and talked and talked until he noticed that everybody were practically asleep in their seats.- Anyway, they don't tell you these things when you sign up...hehe...
His lecture was about two hours long.At this point it was 9 pm.You have already lost the train of thought and decided to just pretend that you are listening to the man blabbering. One more hour.Just one more to go. And then two more!You so kicked yourself in the teeth when you decided to come to the place earlier.
9.15.Scott was finally quiet. He was sitting in one of the chairs,playing with the chord on his phone.Chris fell asleep ,covering his face with hands.Fritz was munching on some type of energizing candy.Jeremy was playing mobile games while leaning on Mike.And,well,Mike was just sitting with his eyes closed,arms crossed on his chest.You were just observing the guys to at least learn some of their habits.Vincent was probably daydreaming at this point.
9.30.Fritz gave you a pack of coffee-choco-beans to "survive the night".You thanked him and threw a couple in your mouth.Jeremy periodically glanced at you,hiding his "not-so-obvious" interest in your persona.Vincent got a KNIFE from Lord knows where and was playing with it.Mike was...Mike.He was just bluntly staring at you with a face of a murderer.Scott put his feet up on the table and leaned his head back, propping it up with his hands.He was probably thinking of something or just zoned out.
9.45. Fifteen more minutes left 'till this awkward first meeting ends. You hoped in secret that this would also be the last one.
10.00 PM. The silence was finally broken by none other than Scott himself.
-Huh ,the time flew by pretty fast,ay?-He asked,sarcastically.Everybody let out a tired groan.Well,except for you and Chris,as now the two of you were sitting together at the table.He was braiding your fringe into two not very accurate little braids.-Well,miss Y/N, now it's time for you to meet boss.He will give you your uniform and then you will have some time to just roam the halls.-As if you were not doing it before but, you nodded obediently and left your seat.You waved to Chris and followed Scott,who then escorted you to the main office.
There you were met with a big,tall,slightly chubby man with dark skin.He was probably in his late fifties .The man was holding a thick-rolled cigar. He cleared his throat and finally acknowledged your existence.
-Oh!My dear,come,sit ,don't be shy!There is nothing to be afraid of!-He smiled with a soft father-like smile, gesturing you to take a sit in a big leather chain in front of his desk.You nodded and followed his order.-So,miss Y/N, it is nice to meet you in person!-He chuckled.-It is rare to see fresh faces like yourself in places such as this one!If you don't mind me asking:why are you here?-He propped his chin on his left hand.
-I-uh...I just dropped out of college so I am trying to find my place in this world, I would say...-you scratched the back of your head.-I guess I just can't make good decisions...
-That's fine,Dear!Everybody goes their own way about life.But this place helps people with history find each other.-He took a long drag and then exhaled thick smoke, like a caterpillar from "Alice in Wonderland".-This place is...a nightmare,to be completely honest.The new employees don't stay longer than a week before they are either smooshed inside one of the empty suits or they just run away after getting the check.-Your eyes widened after hearing about the horrific faith of previous newbies.-The guys here, the ones that are about to work with, are the longest-staying.Scott works here since probably the very beginning,since the first location had been opened,Vinny, I mean Vincent came along shortly after.Poor man ...-Mr. Boseman sighed-But still,he chooses to work here for some reason. He might come off as creepy sometimes, but he is just...different.I'm sure you'll understand.Mike...He is...One of those guys who doesn't fear anything.He is a little out of it but he sure is a trustworthy person.-The man took another drag-Fritz and Jeremy came here at the same time.Fritz is just like you but he also just likes the free food.As for Jeremy...He has issues at home.His father is abusing him so this place is the only getaway for him.He looks up to Mike a lot...Chris has been working here for a few months now,unfortunately, I don't know much about him.-He looked you directly in the eyes.-But I am not the one to tell their stories,dear.Find out for yourself.
The whole time you were basically holding your breath.You just thought that the guys were just a bunch of weirdos.Once the man stopped staring directly into your soul you let out a heave sigh.
-Here,take your uniform-the man pulled out a big box from under his desk.-There is also a present there,try not to throw it away by accident.Well,welcome to the family!And remember to smile because you are now a face of FazBear Pizzeria!-He took your hand and squeezed it,giving it a gentle shake.You completely forgot that you wanted to ask him about the shifts but the thoughts left your head long ago.
The fun will begin soon.
