Vanessa opened her eyes to find herself deep underwater. She was drowning. She could hear voices that would scream louder and louder as she tried to push herself up, yet she found that despite her efforts she kept sinking.
As the water filled her lungs she closed her eyes, waiting to die. Only to open her eyes again, this time the young woman found herself in the bunny suit that ruined her life. Vanessa put all her strength into taking it off but to no avail.
"You know you can't get rid of me." Vanny's voice glitched as she spoke.
Vanessa found herself being forced to walk. A knife stained with blood lay in front of her on a table.
"This is who you're meant to be." Vanny said.

8:07 pmFreddy rushed to carry Vanessa when she fainted. He left everything else behind as he ran towards the elevator, a minute in the elevator felt like hours. He felt so useless with nothing in his safety protocols able to help him.
The elevator doors opened, with Freddy looking at the group in dispair with Vanessa in his arms.

9:14 pmGregory was scared. He stayed in the waiting room of the hospital with Freddy. Freddy wore a large baggy hoodie with black baggy pants to match and sunglasses as a disguise. The two anxiously awaited for a doctor to get back to them on Vanessa's condition.

10:45 pmVanessa awoke in a hospital bed. She was greeted by a doctor who smiled.
Vanessa's mind raced as she began to remember what Vanny had said. 'Was Vanny actually back? Did I finish the maze? Is William gone?'
"Oh good you're finally awake! Before I let your son in to see you, let me go over what condition you're in." The doctor said while glancing at a computer screen to read the diagnosis.
'I don't have a son- fuck. Gregory's here.' Vanessa thought to herself.
"Alright so before you arrived at the hospital you passed out while on working. Your child and a relative-? Drove to the ER with you." The doctor paused before continuing.
"You're body is overwhelmed, you haven't been sleeping, eating or drinking enough. While you were here we pumped some water to hydrate your body. You were overworking your body for a extended period of time meaning that you may have experienced some side effects of depression, constipation, paranoia, loss of appetite, hallucinations, etc. I have sheet I'd like to give you about it all. Going forward you need to take proper care of yourself, otherwise this can become a more serious and long-term issue. We suggest to stay here at the hospital for another hour or two so we can run some more tests just to be sure but this isn't looking very severe so far. I will go and let your family know that you're awake." The doctor said, exiting the room.
Vanessa sighed with relief, she didn't know if that rabbit was truly gone but hopefully it was just a trick of the mind. She observed the room she was in. It was a small room with a window. There was a counter with a sink attached. The lights flickered every minute or so. Cob webs gathered together at the corners of the ceiling.
"Vanessa!" Gregory cried, bursting through the door. Freddy awkwardly followed, trying to fit his body inside the door way.
"Are you okay? What happened? They wouldn't tell me about anything!" Gregory ran to Vanessa's side hugging her arm.
"I'm fine don't worry!" Vanessa chuckled. "My body was just a tad overworked that's all. I'm sorry for giving you a scare."
"Gregory has a gift for you." Freddy smiled warmly as he nudged Gregory's arm.
"Oh right! I haven't been able to properly sit down and give you this since you've been so busy but Freddy and I brought it along to cheer you up!" Gregory paused as Freddy handed him a giant poster board and some flowers that he had been keeping in his chest cabinet.
"I noticed that you were pretty down so I thought that I could do something to cheer you up! I got you some flowers and Me and the rest of the animatronics all made this really cool ass poster for you!" Gregory handed Vanessa the poster with a proud smile. "I know my artwork is clearly the best and I'm genuis blah blah blah. But the flowers I got for you are called daffodils. They reminded me of you, they symbolize new beginnings, happiness and forgiveness. I don't want to get all sappy right now but I know there's a lot you've done that you don't think you should ever be forgiven for but I disagree. You're a good person, you took me in and I'm so grateful for that. "
Vanessa began to tear up. Her hand traced over the artwork on the poster. "You didn't have to do this.. Thank you so much." She sniffled. "Come here you two, you're both getting hugged." She tightly pulled Freddy and Gregory into a hug.
-
The three left the hospital around 1 am. Vanessa tiredly drove back to the Pizzaplex despite Freddy's complains. Gregory quietly slept in the back seat. The road was empty, it felt peaceful.
"Freddy. I'm sorry I haven't been treating you well lately. You've been a big help and I will forever owe myself to you for that." Vanessa spoke softly as to not wake Gregory.
"It's really nothing Officer Vanessa." Freddy said with a warm smile.
"I don't know why you insist on saying officer." Vanessa quietly chuckled. "Vanessa's just fine Freddy."
"Alright, Vanessa." Freddy hummed.
-
When the three arrived they were greeted with very concerned animatronics. After some explanations, tearful apologies and a few bone crushing hugs they allowed Vanessa out of their grasp.
Vanessa and Gregory falling asleep on Freddy's couch underneath a mountain of blankets. Freddy smiled to himself, things were going to get better.
