A New Feeling

☆ Chapter 25 ☆

Bonnie has woken up many times by now. It's always the same.

He wakes up on a dark stage, sometimes alone, sometimes with the others. It has become a pattern for him.

He had never expected to wake up in a small and cramped container.

The bunny's eyes shot open as he realized he was trapped in a claustrophobic space. The bunny banged desperately on the case, and it would not let him out.

Where was he?! He has never seen this outcome before.

He was relieved they came back, but now, he was afraid of this new place. It was so dark outside of the containment. Finally, the bunny noticed a handle towards the front of the casing. He lifted a shaky hand to pull it and nearly jumped as the door opened for him to get out.

He hesitantly stepped out of the metal containment and glanced around at the small storage room in awe. Even in a dark and boring inventory room, he noticed new technology he was unfamiliar with. His attention had turned back to the container he was in.

How long had they been out...? This looked so unfamiliar from any Pizzareia he's ever seen. He noticed there was only one way to walk in this dark storage room, so the bunny took that path. He noticed a door up ahead and approached it cautiously. He jumped in alarm as the door somehow opened on its own.

He's never seen anything like this before. Had they really been powered off for so long? When the bunny stepped into the room, he was left speechless.

He had entered a spacious, more comfortable space. It was littered with stars and neon blue lights. The room was also covered in posters and memorabilia of himself.

Was this all for him...?

The bunny now felt more alarmed. This must be some elaborate trap... there was no way they would give him all of this. His eyes caught sight of a curtain wall ahead. He jogged over and pulled them back.

To his amazement, outside was even bigger. The large museum looked far bigger than any of the pizzareia's he's ever seen. But where is he now? What is he supposed to do...?

He jumped at the random pop-ups blocking the sides of his vision. It was only now that he realized he could search for something, and it would show up on his vision!

He could see tasks, images, battery, and more whenever he wanted. He laughed in amazement and rushed over to the vanity in the room to see himself. When he saw his own reflection, he froze.

He looked...better than he ever has. He would always joke around about how "perfect" he was to his friends, but...now he actually felt...perfect. The new look had made him feel so confident, like he was meant to look like this.

He heard another door in the room slide open and spun towards the noise.

"Bonnie, are you in here?! I-" the bear froze at the door when he saw him. The bunny was also caught off guard.

Freddy looked...stunning! He was so tall and strong, and he was dressed so differently from his more formal attire. He looked more grungy, decorated in leather and studs. To his relief, Freddy's voice still sounded similar to his original, only now it was more scratchy and hushed. He was not sure how he'd react if they gave his partner another whole new voice. The bear remained frozen silent, so the bunny decided to break the tension. He laughed nervously.

"Well...? How do I look? Do you like it-?" He asked nervously. The bear, once again, said nothing and began approaching him, not taking his eyes off the bunny. Bonnie grew increasingly nervous and swiftly looked himself over.

"D-do you not like it-? Sorry, I-" He was cut off by the bear's gentle hand resting against his metal cheek.

"You..." Freddy muttered out.

"You're...you're gorgeous!" The bear breathed out in awe, his gaze looking over the bunny. When Freddy recovered from his shock, he could only laugh in amazement.

"Bon, you're...you're beautiful! I-I am at a loss for words-" He stuttered, his gaze traveling over the bunny's new body. He scooted forward and wrapped a gentle arm around the bunny's waist, pulling him closer.

"You always look so perfect...." He sighed. The two of them leaned in and shared a tender kiss. It was a bit long, but they had grown very comfortable with this contact, so it no longer felt uncomfortable or new. When they pulled away, the bunny giggled cheerfully.

"How'd you sleep?" He joked. The bear chuckled and slid his hands to the back of Bonnie's legs, catching the bunny by surprise. Before Bonnie could ask, the bear swiftly lifted him off the ground and placed him to sit on the vanity, showing little care for the clutter he had knocked over. When the bunny was up, the bear lifted his hands onto the table and leaned in to peck his cheek. Bonnie could not fight the dopey smile on his face. He laughed good-heartedly and placed both of his hands on the bear's neck to look him in the eyes.

After a few seconds of comfortable silence, Freddy snickered.

"I am...very different too-" He thought out loud. The bunny smiled.

"You look handsome as always, honey." He reassured. The bear's eyes lit up.

"You think I am handsome?!" He asked. The bunny just laughed and poked playfully at Freddy's sides, causing him to double over and giggle wildly.

"Bon, that tickles! Stop-!" He laughed. The bunny continued.

"Of course you're handsome, silly-bear!" He teased. When he ceased his attack, Freddy wasted no time wrapping him in his arms tightly and placing quick kisses all over his shouldler and the side of his neck. Before Bonnie could respond, however, they heard steps approaching the room.

They quickly separated and glanced at the door as it opened, revealing a familiar bird animatronic.

"Chica! You look great!" Freddy complimented. Bonnie nodded in agreement. Chica covered her mouth in shock at seeing them.

"You guys look so different. This is weird!"
She laughed as she approached them.

"Woah... Freddy, they made you way taller-" She glanced up at him nervously. Bonnie hadn't noticed that initially and slipped off the vanity to compare his own height. When he saw how much taller the bear was to him, he froze. To his shock, he only barely reached above Freddy's shoulders.

"Hmph." Bonnie huffed in mock-offense.

"At least I'm still taller than Chica!" Bonnie stated. The bird rolled her eyes and glanced between them.

"Have you guys met Foxy yet?" She asked.

"No...where is he, anyway? I thought you two would be together-" Freddy inquired. The chicken shook her head.

"I thought he was with you guys...he doesn't have a room in 'Rockstar Row' like we do..." She clarified.

Where was Foxy...?
