(Rewrite Coming!!!) The Golden Past

CAS and a Poppy

(This may be the last update of 2022, so i am giving a lot of lore in this chapter for y'all to chew on! There may be a special chapter for Christmas, but this will most likely be the last actual lore chapter. The Christmas special will be in the Shenanigans of Molten Freddy and Co. because i CAN)

Afton glared up at CAS. CAS was a large being, well above his own stature and build who's body flowed like liquid. CAS had slowly started to help him out, and Afton was only informed of Molten's plans thanks to CAS.

When one would see CAS, they may think of a shadow, but CAS was far from that. Afton did not even know what to call CAS but a demon. They had two, large wings dripping with a tar like substance that would evaporate before it touched the ground, their feet leaving behind small puddles of the substance that would fade within seconds. Their mouth and eyes where a pure white, their irises being a bright fiery orange red that produced a white substance as well. Their pupils were black and cat like. CAS never told Afton how they came to be, but he had a few ideas.

He was a genius after all.

Maybe CAS was some sort of god, Afton would never know. He only known that his plans would only succeed because of CAS.

CAS was in possession of a strange element called 'AGONY' and would even reply when called Agony. It was strange, but Afton was glad to have such a ethereal being on his side. Hotel Baby did some things to help, but compared to CAS she was a measly fly that could easily be swatted away.

Afton didn't even know CAS real name, all he knew is that CAS was an acronym for what they were, but he never questioned it.

Either way, CAS would make his plans much easier

Molten sighed as he leaned against the speaker in the main room, AI Afton starring him down. Molten just rolled his eye before turning off the light. The others were forcing Molten to do Secret Santa with them and he was not in the mood, but agreed after Helpy begged him to.

And then he met AI Afton for the first time this timeline.

It was great.

AI Afton totally didn't swing a chair at his face leading to denting scratches on his faceplates, totally not.

And now it was the waiting game, waiting for Bryan to show up.

Molten let out a sigh, watching as Bryan soon walked into the pizzeria. The group then led Bryan to a box with empty present boxes and slips of paper with names on them.

Molten grabbed AI Afton's paper, not saying anything as he did so. He heard Bryan groan as he got last picking and got Molten.

"Why so blue~?" Cooed Molten, grinning. "Don't you love who you drew~?" Molten pried, a large grin making its way across his face. (OKAY this part was written before Nobe was even a thing and while editing this I noticed that I made Molten rhyme and Davis plays Molten and Nobe)

AI Afton then spoke. "Ah. That is such a shame." He then turned. "Anyway, let's go back like none of this happened." Molten watched AI go with a low growl, scrunching up the paper in his fist. Molten took the kitchen path back to the main room as the others stayed behind to chat for a few more seconds, AI waiting for the group in the Arcade room.

Molten walked into the portal room, pondering what to get AI.

Maybe he could spook him, or maybe... tell him about Springtrap's plans for him.

Yeah.

AI wouldn't tell a soul as he wouldn't want the others to worry, besides, then AI would be paranoid.
