Reader's POV
×~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~×

Carefully, I made my way up through the utility tunnels to the top floor of the atrium where most of the employees were staying. I saw a familiar blonde head of hair leaning against the railing, separated from the rest of the people. "Hey pretty lady," I greeted Vanessa as I copied her stance. The security guard was wearing a simple navy blue dress, she had on small ruby earrings, and her signature ponytail was now a fancy bun. "Nice to see you managed to pull yourself away from Freddy," she replied. "Shut up," I said light-heartedly.

"When you're ready to pass out, you could always nap in Freddy's room," I said when she let out a long yawn. "I'm pretty sure that invite is only for you," Vanessa started. "Plus, who knows what you two have been doing in there." My face was red as a tomato as I stuttered out a defense, "What we..?! I don't... We haven't...!" She raised a brow at my attempts at speaking.

I gave up on what I was trying to say and instead just buried my face in my arms. "...Forget I ever said anything." "Already did." I could practically hear her smirking.

"Hey, hey! What are two pretty, young specimens doing all the way over here?" (Yes, this applies to the boy and nb readers too!) My own embarrassment disappeared from hearing that awful line, I lifted my head and turned to face the culprit. "That was the worst line I've ever heard."

Vincent stood before us, dressed in a purple suit with a black dress shirt. Behind him was the rest of the gang; Casey, Laura, and Johnny. "Sadly, that isn't even in my top ten," Laura said disappointedly, comes with the job of being a waitress I guess. She was dressed in a suit as well, a simple black one. Casey had on a short, flowy, pink dress while Johnny was wearing a light blue suit. "You guys clean up nicely, even you Vincent," Vanessa said with a smile. He glared at her while the rest of us snickered. "What's that supposed to mean?"

****

The six of us chatted for a little bit before the stage effects turned on and the Dread Unit recited the band introduction. Surely the performance won't be as energetic as usual, otherwise what was the point of Scott hammering it in my head that their outfits stay intact the whole time? I turned to look down at the stage, excitement buzzing throughout my body. Vanessa nudged me with a smirk, while Vincent kissy-faces at me. "You guys are the worst," I said unamused while the others laughed at my suffering.

The music started up and my good mood came back, deciding to ignore my human friends as I watched the stage for my robot ones. The performances usually start off strong, with the band getting right into singing and dancing as soon as the elevator comes up. This time, however, the band walked out from the fog waving to the crowd of people. The sound of a metal claw tapping against the mic pierced through the sound of cheering, effectively catching people's attention.

"Ladies and gentlemen, before we start I would like to say a few words..." This piqued my interest, I'm not the one in charge of what the animatronics do onstage, so I wasn't aware if this was planned or just something they decided to do. "Fazbear Entertainment would like to thank all of you for coming to celebrate such a momentous occasion!" Ah yep, part of the show.

"This would certainly not be possible without your love and support." I smiled to myself as Freddy looked around the crowd to make his point, that bear was a showman at heart, no matter how much more docile he was offstage. "From all of us in the band, as well as the rest of the Mega Pizzaplex staff," he motioned up to the top floor of the atrium where we were all asked to stay. The audience cheered, which was in fact a good morale boost, so maybe Scott wasn't completely full of BS. "We thank you, and we hope that you show your continued support for many years to come."

"That screams corporate bullshit," Casey laughed. "Yeah, but the kids don't care. They're just happy their favorite rockstar is talking," Johnny said. "Is that all we needed to stick around for? Could we like, go get drinks up in Pirate's Cove for some actual company bonding," Vince asked, looking at the rest of us for the go-ahead. "I can't believe that I'm agreeing with Vincent but, that does sound pretty nice," Laura shrugged. The whole group seemed to like the idea.

"I'll stay for this one song, then I'll catch up with you guys," I said as they were starting to make their way out. "Sure, we'll leave you to watch your Robo-Romeo," Casey snickered. "I expected such a lame jab from Vincent, shame on you Cas," I sassed back. "Why is it always me? The hell did I do to you guys?" We laughed at his whining before saying our 'bye's and 'see you later's.

The song was still high-energy like usual but involved less dancing around stage, that's probably the compromise to keep the vibe while making sure they make the most of those outfits. Despite that, the band still looked like they were enjoying themselves so that's good. The song itself was actually pretty catchy and I couldn't help but bob my head along to the beat. (I could not for the life of me pick a song for them to be singing so that's up to y'all haha)

The first song ended and I cheered along with the audience below, not caring if any of my other coworkers were looking at me strangely. Before the band could start again, I made my way over to the elevator that takes you up to the Fazcade.

........Y........N........

I stopped in my tracks and looked around me to see everyone still paying attention to the band onstage. Weird, I thought I heard something. I looked down to check if I had maybe heard one of the animatronics subtly trying to get my attention but all of them were preoccupied with enjoying the crowd. "Hm"
