Nothings New : Mike Schmit

FORT

Being a child, with adventures everyday,
building high spirits, making a new mind grow.

Mysteries peak holding small trinkets, what to do, how to play, imagination goes wild with wonders.

It's when adults break childish habits, the day they turn old, the day maturity is placed before them, to wipe play time and lay down the rules.

But, inside do children really change? Can they truly jump to one age, to the very next?

Adults know better then to change a child so quick, style, behavior, to not let them forget themselves, and the person they wish to be.

Laurel stood with Vanessa watching the animatronics, "he gave you those clothes?" Vanessa questioned not taking her eyes away from the animatronics.

"Yeah." Laurel mumbled a small smile on her face, "I tried to leave again." Laurel announced causing Vanessa to look away from the animatronics.

"When I did it, I felt like how I felt that day that I di-my neck started to bleed and my stomach felt like I was being stabbed." Laurel explained her stare cold. "I really am stuck here forever aren't I?"

Vanessa only nodded slowly before they heard the sounds of a young girl. "Guys. I'm back." Abby announced running past Laurel and Vanessa. "Hey, Vanessa, Hey, Laurie."

Vanessa turned to Mike a mad look on her face. "Mike." Vanessa stated "I missed you guys." Abby chuckled going on the stage.

"You knew about this." Mike said glaring at Vanessa. "Guess you figured it out." Vanessa sighed

"Ghost children possessing giant robots, and a ghost lady?" Mike questioned "thanks for the heads up."

"Guys, we need your help." Abby announced placing her notebook on the table. "It needs to be big so we can fit inside." Abby stated

Mike looked up staring at the animatronics it was clear to Laurel that he was afraid of them. "Abby, look. Now, this is all really fun and exciting but these things are big and they could be dangerous, so I think we need to lay some ground rules, all right? Vanessa, Laurel, what do you think?" Mike questioned

"I think we could use the tables for the fort." Vanessa smirked making Mike roll his eyes. "Everyone, follow me. Come." Abby smiled

Laurel smiled as she walked over to Foxy and held him lift up a table.

Though she had always tried her best to make sure the kids had something to do she knew they were all happy to have someone new to play with and in all honesty it made Laurel happy to see them this happy.

Bonnie attempted to get inside the fort only to drop a table. "It needs to be higher." Abby smiled

Laurel walked over to Mike who was sitting down watching the animatronics in shock. "Wrap your head around it all yet?" Laurel questioned making Mike scoff.

"So who is who?" Mike asked, "Chica is Susie, she's actually really nice a bit of a smart ass tho. Foxy is Fritz he's kinda anti social if I'm being honest, Bonnie is  Jeremy he's the most aggressive one. And Freddy is Gabriel he's the nicest." Laurel explained a smile on her face.

"You've really been here since the 80s?" Mike said in shock, "yeah." Laurel sighed "I think i would've gone crazy if I didn't have them." Laurel smiled laying her head on Mike's shoulder watching them build the fort.

"Maybe if you ever do figure how to get out of here we could do something." Mike suggested making Laurel laugh. "What you asking me out on a date Mike?" Laurel smirked playfully rolling her eyes.

"Yeah." Mike shrugged a small smile on his face.  "Okay if I get out of here you take me to watch a movie, I haven't watched a movie in years." Laurel smiled
