You ran. Or at least, you tried to.
It was as if the floor was constantly rocking from side to side, or like you were trying to coordinate your way through a ship batteling the high seas. The effect of the head injury was definitely getting worse as the night went on.
You wanted to come to a stop, to relax your head and not worsen the already bad symptoms, however, the frantic sounds of deranged movement behind you only hurried your urgency.
You needed a place to hide.

"Superstar!"

Within the moment, you were grabbed by the back of your shirts collar, and flung over Freddy's shoulder blade. Disoriented and winded.
He was moving quickly.

"You can't outrun me!" Roxy shouted.

"I found you." Chica harshly hissed, talking over Roxy.
They were both gaining on you.

"Freddy. Faster please!" You shouted.
Instead, he slowed to a sharp stop, careful not to loose balance.

"FREDDY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" You were flabbergasted.
It was quite an ordeal to see 2 dauntingly large, murderous robots rally towards you.
And just as sudden as he stopped, he jumped to the side. The manoeuvre, abrupt and swift was enough to almost give you whiplash.
Your emotions were all over the place, but the only thing that kept you stable in that instance was watching Chica and Roxy comedically run into the wall after not being able to stop their full sprint. They both fell to the ground. It was straight up out of a cartoon.

*SCREEEEEE* Chicas voice was glitched and discombobulated. And within the robotic screeches, you could hear a rattling.
Roxy remained frozen on the floor.
You tried to let yourself down from Freddy hold, and shifted you way awkwardly down.
Freddy, noticing your intentions, kneeled to set you down. You approached Chica and Roxy, with Freddy by your side.

*SCREEERRRREEE*Chicas voice drew out and wavered. It was clear that she wasn't able to talk. She sat up.
The impact had completely destroyed her.
Her exoskeleton was shattered and cracked all over her body, leaving stray pieces of her white metallic skin split across the floor.
The paint was scrapped of her face and legs. Her beak was detached, with a hole in place of it, revealing her endoskeleton jaw underneath.The plastic casing on her left arm was entirely missing with the exception of her wrist.
And she has a sizable hole in her right forearm, exposing more of her endoskeleton underneath.
She was surrounded by her and Roxys casing debris.

Well, if you weren't screwed before, you sure were now. This actually might give fazbear entertainment some grounds to sue you for the destruction of valuable company property.
That would completely ruin your chances to blackmail them.
But it was self-defence. Wait, technically it was Freddy who caused this issue while trying to protect you.
It wasn't your fault.

"Friends..." Freddy muttered. Why did they have to program their emotions to be so human-like?
Putting the legal complications aside, you were also actually feeling a bit upset. You really didn't mean for Chica to get so... messed up, and seeing the state her, you were almost afraid to see what's happened to Roxy.

Roxys arm twitched. Most of her torso has been lost, exposing her endoskeleton. Her arms and legs were cracked. Her muzzle was crooked and there was a big hole where the rest of her face should have been.
Her eyes were hanging our of her endo sockets.
On a more positive note, the impact had reset them.

"Oof. It seems like you guys have seen better days." You said trying to lighten the mood. Freddy, Chica and Roxy stare at you dumbfounded, as if you've just strangled kittens. You weren't exactly the best with comforting.

"My face... I'm... still beautiful." Roxys head turned to you as she slowly sat up.

"Yikes." You say audibly, surprisingly not on purpose, but rather instinctual. Unfortunately, this set Roxy spiralling and she began to sob. Not with tears, since she's a robot, but rather a desperate insecure cry.

"My hair is ruined... I am not... a looser... I just need a little work done. Everybody still loves me... right? Ohhh my eyes"
This was getting hard to watch.

"Heyyy... umm. It's alright. We can get you to Parts and service and jazz you guys back up. You'll be as good as new." You tried to comfort again. Roxy was still crying. Maybe it would be better if you could get personally on her level.

You crouched down and placed your hand on her tattered shoulder. Bits of metal were poking out, feeling sharp to the touch. You sighed.
"Look, Roxy-"

"I can't!" She interrupted. Oh gosh what a poor choice of words.

"I meant... Ugh. I'm sorry that this happened to you. We'll fix you. I promise. I can see that-"

"Yeah I know YOU can see!" She shouted as she slapped you hand off of whatever was left of her arm. Again, poor choice of words. Not only were you absolutely embarrassed at your terrible attempts to comfort a robot, but you could also visibly see the discomfort on Freddys face as you tried to continue.

"Just try to envision.."

"Vison?!" She once again interrupted.

Ok this was absolutely not going like you'd hoped. Freddy placed his hand on your shoulder. Perhaps it was his was of saying 'for the love of God. Please stop talking.'
You turned to Chica. Your last line of defence.
"Chica, could you talk to her? You usually know what to say since-"
You interrupted yourself this time. Chica frowned. She couldn't 'talk' or 'say' anything, stupid. This was violation after violation.

*sssssssSSSSSSRRrrrrRRR* Chicas voice box made a few crackled noises and Freddy's grip tightened on your shoulder.

You stood up.
"We've all been injured tonight. Trust me I know what it's like. It's scary and it hurts and you don't know if it's gonna worsen. It's tough to control a situation that's uncontrollable, and that's one of the hardest things from this night. We need to help each other. I'm not great with words when it comes to comforting, but I think we're still able to power though this. Together." You stated. It was a reasonable salvage of the embarrassment you put yourself through, and a nice little heroic motivational speech. Hopefully, it would have boosted what was little left of the team morale.

"Freddy. I'm gonna go over there. Do what you gotta do."
You walked away from the broken robots and let the bear try to comfort them.

In the mean time, you headed over to the locked door that once harboured the rabbit person.
Maybe there was a way to open it and see what was going on in there.
