Some place happy?

New home

Evan's POV:

      I am sitting in the back of the van. In the front there is Olivia and Liam, in the middle there is Leo and Emily, and finally there is me in the back with Mia. It makes me nervous to be next to someone else, but she seems nice. But she has been asking me questions nonstop that make me nervous, some of which are very awkward to answer.

      "Do you like soccer?! I love soccer?!"

      "I guess"

      "Hey, how did you get those scars on your face?" With that question I completely froze. She is just staring at me curiously just waiting for a response. I can feel my heart beat a mile a minute.

      Hey guys, I think the little man said he wants to give Fredbear a big kiss!

      The world feels like it is spinning, as I find it harder to breathe. As my vision darkens, I see Mia's face shift from curious to concerned and confused. Everyone in the car now has their attention on me. Liam pulls off to the side of the road as everyone looks at me with concern and worry.

      "Mommy! Daddy! Something is wrong with Evan!" Mia shouts but the words barely even register.

      As I look around, I see tables and chairs around me. It looks like daddy's dinner! I turn around and I gasp in terror, staring down at me is Fredbear. Its mouth is leaking blood, and its eyes glowing white. I hear a distorted laugh coming from it. I hear metal scratching against something, and I turn around and see Micha- Nightmare Foxy. He laughs with Fredbear as he moves closer to me, with his hook scraping against the ground.

      "PLEASE NO!" But his laughing increases as I lean against the stage. His teeth are mere inches from my face. Tears stream down my face as he lounges at me. I scream and close my eyes. But to my surprise nothing happens as I wait for the pain to come. I feel a hand against my shoulder and as I open my eyes, I see Leo.

      "Evan, honey is everything alright?" Olivia's voice is laced with worry as she stares at me.

      "He seemed fine a minute ago. But when I asked him where he got his scars he froze up." Olivia freezes as she listens to Mia. She is a little disappointed with her.

      "Mia, you shouldn't have asked that. I understand that you are excited to get to know Evan, but that is probably something very private to him." Mia nods, still confused as to why it was wrong of her to ask that.

      "You can still talk to him, but please just talk about something happier. Ok sweetie." Liam says nicely to Mia. She agrees and we continue to the house.

Liam's POV:

      One moment everything seemed like it was going well. Sure, I was concerned that Evan would be a little overwhelmed with all the questions Mia was asking him. I was hoping that maybe it would help make them closer. But when I heard hyperventilating, my parenting instinct kicked in and I immediately found a safe place we could pull over.

      When I turned to look at what was going on, I saw Evan with pure terror in his eyes. As a parent I have seen Leo, Emily, and Mia have their fair share of fright, but this was something I have never seen before. The terror in Evan's eyes is something I will never forget; this wasn't like a kid being afraid of the dark or a 'monster' being under their bed. The look behind his eyes held pure trauma, now I am one hundred percent certain that Evan experienced mistreatment. There is nothing I want more than to see him as happy as Mia, no matter what there has to be something we can do to help.

      "Evan, is something wrong? If there is, you can tell us."

      "PLEASE NO!" He shouted so suddenly that it made us all jump. It doesn't look like he is talking to us anymore. His eyes are staring off at something, I can tell we are not seeing the same thing. Evan is looking all around the car, and he has tears streaming down his face.

      "Evan, we're here, it's all okay." Emily says. But Evan gives no indication that he has even heard her. Oliva at this point is frantic, with deep concern and is pleading with Evan to tell her what is wrong. I feel the same way, but I am fighting with every fiber of my being to stay calm. If we all freak out it could make Evan even more distraught. I try to talk to him calmly and supportively, but it has no effect as he leans against his seat, as if he is cornered.

      "Hey buddy please, it's ok. I got you." Leo leans back and touches Evans shoulder, this gets Evans attention as he gets a sense of his surroundings. He jerks back from Leo's touch however, but he looks calmer than before. It turns out Mia asked him about his scars, it must be an uncomfortable subject to him. Noted, if we ever approach him about the subject it will have to be with great caution.

      Now that Evan is calm, I start the car and continue driving back home. After fifteen minutes we arrived in our neighborhood. There are plenty of neighbors with many kids, so it's a nice play to grow up in. I just hope Evan likes it.

Evan's POV:

      The car has stopped in front of a two-story house. I guess this is going to be my new home now, because everyone is already starting to get out. The neighborhood doesn't look too different from my old one, except for the change in technology. I take a deep breath as I get out of the car. Holding Fredbear tighter I walk into the house. It looks pretty nice, and in the living room is one of the weird tv's!

      "This is it! What do you think of your new home?!" Olivia says in a cheerful tone.

      "It looks great. You certainly have a nice home." Olivia smiles and pats my head. She looks overjoyed by my comment.

      "Great! Your room is upstairs, come let me show you!" She takes my hand and walks me upstairs with Liam following behind us. She then leads me down a hallway until we get to the last room. She opens the door, and my eyes widen when I see the room. The bed sheet has Daddy's animatronics on it! The wall also has a poster of that Puppet that Uncle Henry created! I feel fear course through me as I look at the designs, but I try to remember that they are not the actual ones.

      WAIT!

      Daddy's creations exist in this world as well! But I thought Fredbear said this was a different world! Does that mean the animatronics are going to come back?!

      "I don't understand, I can feel that this world is different. Perhaps something went wrong." Fredbear sounds just as confused as I am.

      "Do you like it?" Olivia waits for my replay with nervous anticipation.

      "Yes, I like it." I stutter out. I don't want to hurt their feelings. They probably worked hard on it. She smiles while Liam doesn't look so convinced.

      "I'm thrilled! Now if you need anything just let me or your dad know! I'll let you get acquainted with your room while we make dinner!" Olivia and Liam leave the room. Dad? It sounds weird hearing that being said except for daddy. But I guess it is something I should get used to. Now I wonder if there is a flashlight around here.

Author's Notes:

Evan has now arrived at his new home. But he is confused as to why the brand of Freddy Fazbear exists here. But what he doesn't know is that it is much more complicated than that.
