I was in the elevator as it went down. "Welcome back for another night of intellectual stimulation," I never wanted to yell 'shut the fuck up' so hard in my life "pivotal career choices, and self-reflection on past mistakes. We’re committed to creating a unique and fulfilling work experience. One part of that commitment is ensuring that you don’t get tired of the voice that you’re hearing right now." I rolled my eyes and the keypad came out again with it's glitchy ass screen. "Using the keypad below, please select a new companion voice. For male, press 1. For female, press 2. For text-only, press 3. For other options, press 4." My jaw dropped as I looked at the screen "there aren't any FUCKING NUMBERS!" (If ykyk) I yelled and just hit a random letter. "It seems that you had some trouble with the keypad." "Well no FUCKING SHIT!" I yelled again, I clearly wasn't in the mood. "I see what you were trying to type, and I will auto-correct it for you. thank you for choosing, Angsty Teen." "Really?!" I muttered. "The elevator stopped. You know the routine. You can get out now or... whatever. stay here if you want." I frowned. "Wow father, sooooo funny." That 'angsty teen' voice was mimicking me as a teen. I knew this because father kept saying he'll do something like this whenever I had 'attitude.' I grumbled and hit the red button and crawled into the vent. "So, funny story... a dead body was found in this vent once. Okay, so, not that funny, but... it's a story." My eyes widened "that's not fucking funny!? That shouldn't even be a story!" I cried.

I watched as Eggs entered the vent, they were clearly in a bad mood but I couldn't help but laugh, neither could Noah. We both laughed as they yelled in the vent about that so called story, we laughed even harder when we heard them yelling in the elevator.

I got into the control module and tapped my foot for the lagging handunit. "Ok, let's start with your nightly chores. You should check on Ballora and make sure she's on her stage, but... whatever." I hit the light for ballora. Of course that bitch wasn't there. "Huh, I guess Ballora has better things to do. Let's zap her! That should be fun." "Yeah, totally fun until they want to kill me." I hit the shock button and it shocked her but quickly a weird gurgling sound filled the silent. I couldn't understand it and it went on for at least fifteen seconds before silence again. "The fuck?" I muttered. I hit the light again and nearly jumped out of my skin. She was right there, infront of the glass. "Let's check on Funtime Foxy. Make sure their ready for showtime tomorrow." I checked in them by turning on the light. "Great- great- great-" I shivered at the distorted voice. "There seems to have been a problem with the voice synthesizer. Default settings have been restored. Please proceed through the vent ahead of you to Circus Baby’s Auditorium." Great, handunit was back. I didn't shock Foxy because they didn't deserve it and I knew my Foxy didn't like seeing that Foxy shocked. I crawled into the vent and went to Baby's Auditorium. "Circus Baby had a busy day today! Let’s check the light, and make sure she’s in proper working order." I hit the light and sure enough, they didn't fix the lights. "Oh, Circus Baby, we aren’t here to play hide and seek! Let’s encourage Baby to come out of hiding with a controlled shock." I hit the shock button but nothing happened, only a weird sound. "Let’s try another controlled shock." Again nothing happened, just that weird sound again. "There seems to be a power malfunction that is affecting our ability to properly motivate Baby. Please stand by while I reboot the system. I will be offline momentarily during this process. Various other systems may be offline as well, such as security doors, vent locks, and oxygen. Commencing system restart." "Really?! Oxygen too! Who the fuck built this place?" "I don’t recognize you. You are new." I jumped at the new voice. It was female and soft. Like a girl but also a woman. "I remember this scenario. However, it’s a strange thing to want to do, to come here. I’m curious what events will lead a person to want to spend their nights in a place like this willingly. Maybe curiosity, maybe ignorance. There is a space under the desk, someone before you crafted it into a hiding place and it worked for him." I looked under the desk and there was a hole underneath, just enough room to hold the average sized man. "I recommend that you hurry though. You will be safe there, just try not to make eye contact, it will be over soon. They will lose interest." I got to my hands and knees and crawled under the desk. I noticed a door with holes in it. I pulled it closed and held my flashlight close to my chest. Suddenly I heard whispering and I saw a big blue eye look in. I quickly looked away and held my breath. The door then started opening and I was quick to grab and close it, but they opened it again, almost all the way. I was trying to close it but they were strong. I saw a peek of it. It was humanoid which white a flesh skin. It looked like someone tried to make a robotic human without skin. I was able to close the door and I heard more whispering before they seemed to have left. "When your 'guide' comes back online, he is going to tell you that he was unsuccessful, that you must restart the system manually. He will then tell you to crawl through Ballora Gallery as fast as you can to reach the Breaker Room. If you follow his instructions, you will die. Ballora will not return to her stage anymore, she will catch you. The power will be restored shortly. When you crawl through Ballora Gallery, go slowly. She can not see you and can only listen for your movement. When you hear her music become louder, she is growing near, listening for you. Wait and be still." 'Should I trust her?' 'I don't know but it seems like she saved you from whatever was out there. Handunit didn't even say a word about them, and if our baby is like her than I suggest listening to her.' I nodded and waited. "Thank you for your patience. It seems that the power system cannot be restarted automatically. You will need to restart the power system manually. Please return to the primary control module." 'How did she know?' 'Maybe they have access to it's system.' I opened the door and crawled out and into the vent. I exited the vent and looked around. "You will now be required to crawl through the Ballora Gallery using the vent to your left to reach the Breaker Room. It is recommended that you stay low to the ground, and reach the other side as fast as possible as to not disturb Ballora. I will deactivate myself momentarily, as to not create an auditory disturbance. Deactivating." 'considering that it said auditory disturbance, I'm guessing she can here very well so I'm guessing what she said was right.' The vent to Ballora Gallery opened and I dropped to my knees and crawled into the gallery. I went slow and held my breath as much as possible. I would hear her music and I would go slower or stop. Eventually I could just barely see the door when, "It seems you are taking a long time. Please proceed as quickly and as quietly as possible." I jumped and nearly screamed at the echoing voice. I clasped my hand over my mouth the muffle any scream that could've come out. I took a few deep breaths and continued but quickly stopped as I heard her music and saw her silhouette pass my flashlight. I made it to the door, stood up and rushed in. The room I was in was filled with thick wires with little light. Sparks periodically went off revealing the silhouette oh Funtime Freddy. "You may now interface with the breaker control box. Using the interface may disrupt nearby electronics. If you feel you are in danger, feel free to disconnect the interface temporarily until it is safe to reconnect." I looked at the screen which was next to a box with switches in it that was labeled "bonbon diffusion." I started to reboot the system when I heard Freddy. I looked up and he was closet. I flipped a switch a bonbon spoke which seemed to calm him down. I finished rebooting everything and staying alive. "Great job! This completes your tasks for the night. Please proceed back through the Ballora Gallery with care, and we’ll see you back here tomorrow." I sighed and carefully exited the room and quietly crawled through Ballora Gallery and left.

I watched as Eggs hid under the desk. The Bidybabs already left so why was he still there. It seemed like he was talking to someone in his mind then left after handunit spoke to him. I crawled further into the vents and poked my head into Circus Baby Auditorium. "Hey Baby?" I said. She looked up at me. "Just me or does they look familiar?" She said. "My soul keeps saying that she feels like she knows them." I shook my head "no, my soul is saying the same thing. Should we ask the others?" She shook her head "no, Foxy hasn't seen them yet, Ballora can't see, and Freddy isn't possessed." I nodded "are we still going through with the plan?" She looked up at me with determination "of course."
