Security Breach: The Rabbits Glitch

Chapter 15: Jumpscare

Muffled voices and shuffling can be heard within Parts and Service.
Vanessa. That's actually great. Finally a shimmer of luck has been sprinkled upon you.

You push on the double-door, pulling down on the handle, pushing, pulling, it wouldn't budge.

"Yeah you're gonna need a security badge to open that door." Roxy said, still crouched, with her hands shielding her peripheral vision from the blinking neon lights on on walls, looking through the tinted windows.
You had to get in. You needed to tell Vanessa everything. You also had questions that needed answering.

"Where can I find a security badge?"

"Pretty sure one of the office's has one lying around" Roxy answered.

So in other words you were just going to walk around and hopefully come across one. You hated the idea of having to explore this place any more than you already did.

Chica stepped out of the recharge station and raised her arms in the air while stretching her back. It was weird since she didnt have any muscles to stretch, but her animated programming made it look as if she had woken from a long nap.

Chica lowered down and you hopped on her back.

"So anyone know where the nearest security card is?"

"No clue luck stars." Chica shook her head.

"I'll be the first to find one." Roxy puffed her chest out. It was as if she was some peacock trying to show the other birds how superior she was.

"Hmm lucky stars. I've noticed that since I'm on reduced power, carrying you on my back takes up twice as much energy as what it would normally take."

"So I'm going to have to walk on my own?" You were kind of disappointed. The ride was enjoyable while it lasted.
You steadliy slipped down (key word, steady, because you were moving at the pace of molasses). You were absolutely not going to take a chance with accidentally slipping and hitting your head again, and also your head was slowly coming down from the excruciating ache and you wouldn't wish that pain back.
You wouldn't wish that pain even on your worst enemies, well, maybe except for Moon.
That elongated spider-like crawling jester clown can get terrible maintenance the next time he's in parts and service for all you care.

All three of you were walking to what seemed to be a garage door. You were sandwiched in between Roxy and Chica, but you didn't mind. If anything was jumping out at you, you had guards.
Speaking of protection, you had totally forgotten the 'defence pipe' in Chica's room, which sucked because now you feel pretty bare without it.

Zzzzzz
The sounds of wheeling movement approached, and you had only noticed it when it was too late. You turn quickly to face whatever was zooming towards you.
But it was already behind you.
Lowering its face to meet yours.
Bleached large oval like head.
Jaundice-coloured cheeks.
Indigo painted pupils within a large circular frame.
Your breath had been caught mid scream. Frozen in shock. It only got closer. Your heart racing. Suddenly feeling faint, lights becoming white.
Was this it?
Everything went dark, but you were still tense.
An acute hyper-awarness of your surroundings.

"Pleae take a map"
Confused, and dazed.

You open your eyes, not realising you had closed them.

You were tugged by Roxy, but it only came closer towards you.

"Take a map, please take a map." it held out a pamphlet towards you.

It was a map-bot.

It all happened so quickly. You felt the tension and ache within your back melt away as you came to your senses.
The glamrocks barely had the time to react.

With her hand still placed firmly on your shoulder, Roxy snatched pamphlet out of its hands.

"Thank you." It whizzed away and stationed itself near a few boxes.

"Oh my goodness lucky stars! It came out of no where" Chica giggled.
You were unable to speak.

"You alright there Rockstar? You've become paler than Chica." Roxy was kneeling down in front of you, while firmly placing both hands on your shoulders.

"...fine.." you were slowly catching your breath. Roxy stood up and held her hips.

"Well, if you're all good then let me be the first to laugh at ya. HAHAHA! You should have seen your pathetic little face" Roxy pointed at your pathetic self.
What a bully.

"Roxy that's not polite." Chica crosses her arms in attempts to get Roxy to straighten up, but Roxy was laughing her head off.

"Ahahaha, you're such a looser!" She clutched her stomach and leaned on the wall, laughing at you.

You now felt incredibly silly and embarrassed for being jumpscared by a stupid map bot.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, laugh it off. I thought it was going to attack me!" You tried to justify yourself. But Roxy was too busy laughing to listen to your cries of attention.

"Ugh whatever!" You stomped your foot and couldn't help but feel like a child throwing a tantrum.
