The metal bot looked down at the child with adoration as the child looked at them with fear.
The bot started to feel a new kind of emotion as they gazed at the child before them.
The feeling of an Artificial Obsession towards the child and the child...

Y/N's POV,
I screamed and cried. That's all I could do. I desperately tried screaming so even a slither of hope can find me, but all I was met with was my own rapid heartbeat and my falling tears.
My throat started to burn badly. Now all I could do was cry pathetic tears taking in quick breaths every now and then.
The closet was dark, with no light to see what was inside, not like I would really care. I wasn't sure what closet and where I was. I couldn't even remember what I was doing here.
'Why did I follow the rabbit..?' That's all I could ask as I clutched the back of my head.
I leaned against the wall and pulled my legs close to me, just so I can have some comfort. I started to cry even more as I remembered that my mom was probably so mad at me and worried about where I went.
The sound of footsteps hit my ears. I hitched my breath and listened. The footsteps continued and kept getting louder. They sounded heavy, and just a single footstep made the ground shake slightly.
I kept quiet, hoping it wasn't the rabbit again. The footsteps stopped in front of the door. and i stopped crying altogether.
The door handle started to jiggle before I heard the sound of keys. The handle moved more before it opened, bright light flooding into the room. I squinted my eyes so I can adjust to the light. Before looking at the silhouette standing in front of the doorway. It was big. In fact it was bigger than the doorway.
I started to cry more as it bent down, two yellow glowing eyes, staring right at me.
"Hey, Hey its okay! Don't cry!"
A voice spoke out to me, as I started to back away further into the closet. My breathing started to become more rapid.
"Hey... shhh it's okay! I won't hurt you.."
The voice sounded metallic, but somehow almost like a human. The robot stepped inside the room and pulled a string hanging from the ceiling, with that the lights clicked on, revealing a white and light pink fox, with an dark pink eyepatch covering its left eye. It also had an similar colored pirate hat on it's head with a pink skull on the front. Red cheeks were placed on both sides of its face, and a pink bow laid on its chest. It also had a spiked band on the bottom of the torso.
"It's alright.. I just want to help you..!"
It got closer to me as I froze. Not having anymore room to scootch back with.
Once it was right in front of me it bent down to my height as I sat there not moving.
"Shhh... It's okay nothing is here to hurt you.."
They just stared at me for a minute before they held a hand out to me, as I looked at it, I notice it's claws were painted red with pink paw pads painted on it's hand.
"Let me help.. Please?"
I looked at it's hand then it's face, which was just looking at me. I pulled my legs closer as I just started cry more, my breathing becoming worse. The robot just stared at me before a yellow light illuminated from it's eyes. Scaring me a bit, pulling my legs closer. The light vanished as the robot was staring into space.
"..Is it okay if I touch you, love?"
I looked at for a minute, seeing its face looked a bit upset. Thoughts were rushing through my mind, but it looked like it really does want to help, if it wanted to hurt me it probably would have done so already.
I nodded slightly. In which in response, it got closer to me and rubbed my back, shushing me while I cried more, but my breathing slowed a bit. After so I felt better about everything, but still being upset about the situation of the rabbit and my mom.
"Hey... Where's your mother, or your father? Someone you know?"
I shook my head while the robot let out a mechanical sigh.
"How did you even end up in here, love? The door was locked."
I shook my head again. The robot looked around outside the closet before looking back to me.
"Let me take you to security. I'm sure they will help."
They stood up from their bent position and offered me a hand to pull me up with. I hesitantly took it and used it to pull myself up. Then they guided me out of the closet, but I didn't let go of their hand, for the reason that I was afraid of the rabbit coming back, and they were my only source of protection and comfort.
They seemed nice. They wanted to help me, despite me pathetically crying in a closet, they could have left me in there, but they didn't. I sighed as they guided me through the empty mall.
Empty? How long was I stuck in the closet? I attempted to gain some courage to ask, but we were already walking into an elevator. While they pressed a button, the intercom turned on.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for visiting and we hoped you enjoyed the show! Freddy and the gang are pretty tired, but will be back again next week after a few days of scheduled maintenance. Please make your way to the front of the building, where you will be given novelty glasses, a voucher for one free soda refill, and where you will sign a legal disclaimer releasing us of all liability for anything that might have happened during your visit. Have an awesome night, and we hope to see you again soon!"
The robotic fox looked down at me with worry.
"Looks like we need to hurry or else you'll be locked in."
The elevator dinged and opened to reveal the first floor lobby. The robot gently took my hand again and lead me to one of the shops called the 'Fazpad' and opened a door, leading to a kitchen. Then walking to another doorway which revealed stairs going down.
They turned to me, and spoke to me.
"Stay here, I'll be back."
They turned back around and went down the stairs, and went through a blue and red door. I waited nervously for the fox to come back out. Before I heard the door behind me open with a creak. I whipped my head around and looked at the person who just walked in.
The being had the same heavy footsteps as the fox, but looked nothing like them. The robot looked around the room before spotting me. They stared at me for a moment before rushing over to me. I stepped back towards a wall while the robot stood tall in front of me.
But two words escaped from the new robots throat, with a feminine voice.
"How cute!"
