Inside the basement of an abandoned pizzeria, three children witnessed the death of the friends of the two older boys, killed by a man whose eyes were purple. He was all mangled and twisted into an animatronic himself, and the older boys knew who it was. They stood themselves in front of their younger sister, whose back was against the wall and she was shaking in fear, the boys stood strong though. They were willing to die first if it meant she could run and escape. But as the man turned to them, his knife raised to attack, the doors to the basement crashed open and down piled 6 people at once. The boys recognized them but the girl didn't notice them as she was too frightened. 2 of the male anthropomorphic launched themselves at the man, while the others grabbed the three children, running out. Along the way, they ran into their parents who told them to continue going and not let any of their children go back in, even if they don't make it out. They continued running in, making their way to the man and the other males down there.
As they exited the building, the other two exited behind them, panting and leaning over to catch their breath.
They all sat there and waited for the parents, but they never came.
"Freddy, should we go back in and help them?" a purple bunny asked, tilting his head.
"I don't know Bonnie. They said not to come back in unless they emerged, I don't want to disobey our bosses' rules-" Freddy said, getting cut short as explosions rang from inside, the place catching fire quickly.
"MOM! DAD!" the two boys yelled, running into the burning building, Freddy and the others calling out to them. Freddy and his alligator friend Montgomery were about to run in and get them when another explosion sounded, the blast sending them flying back.
The two females were already contacting the police and firefighters at that point, the police hearing the explosions and screams of bystanders.
"MASON!! SAM!!" the little girl screamed, watching the building burn and explosions go after watching them run in. Her parents had been in there as well, and she cried loudly, the loud noises hurting her ears and the stress hitting her at once.
"Chica, Roxanne, please help me calm her I don't know what to do" Foxy announced, as he was the one who was holding her, and the girls made their way to him taking her from his arms.
Chica held the little girl close, trying to calm her.
The police and firefighters arrived not long after. The band explained that their managers' kids had been kidnapped, they found who the guy was and followed him here, they had saved the kids, but their parents ran in as well, telling us to take the kids outside, and then the building caught fire, the two older boys ran into the burning building and then the explosions happened. The firefighters put the fire out after about an hour. most of everything was destroyed and the police and firefighters couldn't find any remains of who was inside.
The police discussed the incident with Freddy, Bonnie, Foxy, and Montgomery while Chica and Roxanne sat with the girl. She had stopped crying, now just sitting in Chica's lap and playing mindlessly with Roxanne's tail. Roxanne smiled softly at the little girl. Soon a black car pulled up and out stepped a man in his late 20s, spotting the girls and walking quickly to them.
"the police just called me, I know what happened. Are you sure they found nothing?" he asked. Roxanne looked at him and nodded. "they just put the fire out not even 15 minutes ago. They had a lot of people in there looking. There's nothing in the basement, the main room, the security room, or parts and services. There are no bodies. We don't know how Caspian. It's like they just disappeared." she explained. Caspian nodded, tears brimming his eyes, but he held them back. He couldn't cry in front of his niece. He held his arms open, kneeling on the ground. "come here, Nimheya." he said, and the girl slowly climbed out of Chica's lap, walking to her uncle and letting him hug her, lifting her off the ground as she laid her head on his shoulder, sniffling softly as she held onto him.
Freddy, Montgomery, Bonnie, and Foxy approached, the police and firefighters leaving the scene. Caspian let his niece down and to everyone's surprise, she didn't go back to Chica's lap, but she walked over to Montgomery, hiding behind his leg and holding on to the baggy part of his pants. Montgomery looked down at her and he smiled softly, kneeling beside her, her small hand letting go of his pants as he scooped her up, placing her on his hip, standing tall. He held her gently and patted her head, and she hid her face against his shoulder, his long red hair laying over her small head and over her white hair, mixing slightly from how it touched.
Caspian smiled, and so did the others. Nimheya had liked alligators since the first time she saw a real alligator and then met him, but she was always a little scared of Montgomery. He was very unsociable at first but he slowly became more and more outgoing, loving to perform for the customers, adults and children alike, at the pizza cafe that Caspian and the girl's parents had run together.
Freddy looked at Caspian, speaking "So what is going to happen now, Caspian?"
Caspian was quiet for a second, before speaking up. "I think for now, she's gonna go live with her friend and her mother in the next state over. She'll be able to visit for a while, but in case somehow this man is still alive, I want her out of harms way. He never wanders far from his original place." he spoke. The group nodded, and Montgomery felt the little girl shake in his arms, and he looked down at her, sitting on the ground and pulling her into his lap.
"hey shh, it's okay firefly. I got you. It'll be okay." he spoke softly. Everyone looked down at them, feeling guilty as the girl cried,
"I d-don't want to l-leave" she stuttered out. Monty hugged her tightly. then he put her back onto her feet in front of him, kneeling as he took his glasses off.
"Look at me, firefly." He said. She sniffles, looking up at him, her unnatural violet eyes shimmering with tears. He smiled softly, placing his glasses on her face and she tilted her head confused at him. He grabbed her small hands in his, holding them gently.
"I promise, little one. As long as you have these glasses, you will be okay, and you will see the path forward. Just keep them in good shape, ya hear?" He said, his southern deep voice soothing her cries, and she smiled weakly at his words.
"O-okay Monty" she spoke softly, and everyone smiled. Soon everyone said their goodbyes to the young girl, her uncle getting into his car with her and driving to his friends house in the next state over. The 6 band members watched the car drive away, before leaving themselves, but not before looking back at the now abandoned and destroyed cafe.
They all knew things would get better, but little did they know, their jobs were about to be a whole lot better. And they would become a band known as The Glamrocks.
