I sat in the emergency room waiting area. I was nervous, scared, and worried. Sherry had lost a lot of blood, and her left hand.

Suddenly, a doctor walked out.

"Mike Schmidt!" He called.

I ran up to him.

"Doctor, is Sherry going to be ok?" I asked frantically.

"Yes, she wanted me to come get you so she could talk to you." The doctor replied.

I nodded and the doctor led me to where Sherry was. Sherry was sitting up in her hospital bed.

"Sherry!" I yelled as I ran up and hugged her.

I felt her arm wrap around me. I backed out of the hug and sat down at the edge of the bed. I looked over at her hand, or stub. It was wrapped in bandages.

"I'm so sorry." I said.

"It's not your fault." She said.

I began to cry.

I hugged her again.

"I was so worried that I had lost you." I said.

"I'm ok, thanks to you." She replied.

I backed out of the hug again.

"Sherry, I'm going back." I stated.

"No, you're not." Sherry argued.

"Yes I am. I'm gonna bring Purple Guy to justice for what he's done to you." I stated.

"Mike, please don't. It's too dangerous."

I stood up.

"I'm going back right now, and I'm finishing this." I stated.

"But, there's something you need to know!" She said. "We're going to have a kid!"

"Y-you're pregnant?" I asked.

Sherry nodded.

"All the more reason I should go. Purple Guy may try to hurt our child." I stated.

I kissed Sherry on the cheek and walked out. I then drove straight to the horror attraction. The time was around 3. I had a few hours to end this.

I walked into the building, holding the axe in my hand.

"Purple Guy! I'm back!" I yelled.

Spring Trap appeared from the shadows. The phantoms materialized behind him.

"Mike, I see your back. This will certainly be your last visit." Spring Trap said.

"Yeah, I know, because this is where I kill you!" I replied.

Spring Trap began to laugh a metallic laugh.

"So bold, for one so weak."

"I have already killed you guys several times; it won't be hard for me to do it again." I said.

They all began to laugh. They then stopped suddenly. Puppet stepped back with Spring Trap.

"Kill him."

The phantoms began to leap at me. I swung my axe and chopped down Chica. This time, instead of bursting into black ooze, she smashed like and actual animatronic. She fell to the ground. I jumped on top of her and began to chop at her face with the axe. I smashed her to pieces.

I stood up.

"Who's next?!" I screamed.

Balloon Boy sprinted towards me. I threw the axe and it stuck him in the head. He collapsed to the ground, dead. I pulled the axe from his head.

Foxy ran at me. He swung his hook at me. I countered with my axe and chopped his arm off. I then tackled him to the ground. I began to chop at his face until he was nothing but oil and spare parts.

Freddy threw a punch at me. I swung my axe and chopped his arm off. I began chopping him into many pieces.

I stood and turned to Puppet and Spring Trap.

"You've lost." I said as I pointed my axe at them.

They both laughed.

"No, we're just getting started." Puppet said.

He snapped his fingers. I heard rattling metal. I looked down and saw all the destroyed phantoms forming together into a grotesque hybrid creature.

I slowly backed up.

"R-ring ar-ou-nd the r-rosie po-cket fu-ll of p-posie. A-ashes a-ashes we...all...fall...down." I mumbled.

The creature grabbed me and began to drag me away. I tried to get from its grip, but I couldn't. Spring Trap and Puppet followed behind us.

"Oh Mike, you really should've stayed away." Puppet said.

"Now you'll be stuffed, just as I was." Spring Trap said.

Oh gosh! I didn't want to die! I had to try to escape!

"It was nice knowing you, no actually it wasn't." Puppet said.

The hybrid creature pulled out an old gold Freddy costume and sat it on the table. It picked me up and shoved my left leg in first.

I screamed out in pain.

Then it shoved in my right leg. I tried to squirm and get away. I knocked over an old gas canister and it spilt all over the floor.

It then pushed the body over me, shattering my spine.

I screamed in pain. I looked over to the left and saw a pack of matches. I reached out and pulled one out.

The creature shoved my right arm into the suit.

I shrieked in pain.

"You know Purple Guy, I will win." I said.

Spring Trap signaled for the creature to stop stuffing me into the suit.

"How so?" He asked.

"Because...you're going to die in a fire!" I yelled.

I then struck the match and threw it on the gasoline and it burst into flames, burning Spring Trap in the process.

"Mike! You idiot!" He screamed.

The fire spread through the old building pretty fast. And as the flames began to engulf me, I had never felt so alive.

I picked up my cellphone, which had fallen out of my pocket. I dialed Sherry.

"Mike, what's going on?" Sherry asked immediately.

"Sherry, I'm sorry. The building's on fire and I won't make it out. I wish I could be there to see our child, but I guess that won't happen. I love you." I said.

"Mike! I'm calling 911!" She said.

"No, my body has been stuffed into a suit, mostly. My spine is shattered. It's only a matter of time before I die. The flames are also slowly burning me. I'm sorry." I explained.

"Mike!" She screamed.

"I love you Sherry." I said.

I then hung up the phone. The flames began to burn my legs.

I began to cry. I would never see my child. I wouldn't see Sherry's sweet smile. I wouldn't get to teach my child how to play baseball, or drive them to school for the first time. I wouldn't get to see them get married. I wouldn't get to meet my grandchildren. I'd never see my parents again.

Most of all, I would never see my sister or parents ever again.

"I'm sorry." I whispered as I closed my eyes for the last time.

My last tear streamed down my cheek. I smiled. A least this madness was all over.

The flames began to engulf me. The building then collapsed on top of me.

"Game over." I whispered with my last breath.
