Screw Loose

The Room

BzzzzzzzzzzT- BzzzzzzzzzzzzT- BzzzzzzzzzzzzzT' Gregory groans as his fazwatch continues to vibrate from under his pillow.

"Just five more minutes!" He says with his face embedded in said pillow. As he was about to drift off once again into sleep, the door to his room opened, followed by heavy footsteps.

"Good morning Gregory!" Booms the voice of Freddy coming through the door. At the sound of the bear's voice, Gregory shoots up from his blanket.

"G'morning- wait morning!?" He says as he runs over to the charging station, making sure the bag is still there. He mentally slaps himself in the face for forgetting very important plans.

"Gregory, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with my charging station?" Freddy says as he gets closer, wondering why Gregory bolted towards the machine.

"I-It's nothing! I think I just saw a rat, nothing major."

"A rat!? Well, we must contact employees immediately. Hopefully, they can call an exterminator!" Freddy says as he starts to contact the daytime employee line on the network.

"No, it's not necessary! It was just a baby, there's no harm in that!" Gregory didn't know why seeing a rat was such a big deal, He had seen bigger and worse out on the street. It was normal to see a rat, but not in this case where there is no rat at all.

"Nonsense Gregory. A rat in the Pizzaplex is a major health hazard! Don't worry, I've already contacted the daytime employees. In the meantime, why don't you go find a place to eat?" Freddy says as he puts his hand on Gregory's back and leads him back to his mat. Gregory stays silent, agreeing with his empty stomach. When he sits down on his mat, he notices an array of colorful glitter littering his shirt and shorts.

"Uhh- why are you covered in glitter? I just noticed it." He asks as the bear looks down and looks down at himself.

"Chica." They both say in unison, bursting out into laughter right after a couple of seconds of stunned silence.

"We had a little Glam Rock Glam night at Roxy's salon. I wanted to invite you, but you were sound asleep and I didn't want to ruin it." He says as he stands back up and makes his way to his private elevator.

"That makes sense, I'm surprised she doesn't eat that stuff since she loves it so much." Gregory laughs as he lays back down. Freddy chuckles at his joke, actually thinking if he has ever seen Chica eat glitter. That may have happened once, but his AI probably blocked it out, not needing some extra trauma to deal with.

"I'm pretty sure she has, I just can't remember. Anyway, the glitter is what I came in here for, I'm going to parts and service to get washed up before opening. I wanted to see you before I go just in case." Gregory nods his head in understanding.

"I get it. Glitter is a menace and it should have never been invented. It gets everywhere! And when I say everywhere, I mean everywhere." Gregory says, dusting off the glitter from his clothes and blanket. Freddy once again laughs at his adopted child's banter, pressing the button to his elevator.

"You better not say that in front of Chica, she will come after you." Freddy smiles thinking back on a certain bunny who would help aid her in revenge against his son. The bear doesn't notice anyone is talking until little hands tug at his pants. He quickly comes back to reality and looks down to see Gregory staring at him.
