Lilith would have never fallen asleep on the job but with how Mike had been holding her protectively and the sound of his calm breathing, she couldn't help but fall asleep with her head against his chest. Keeping a light hold on his sweater as she hid her face into it. Blocking any of the light from her eyes.

The door creaked open to the office as something seemed to walk into the room. Moving towards the small spot that Abby had to sleep in. "Abby.." The voice of a young boy being heard.

Abby stayed asleep before she slowly began to open her eyes. Getting up as she watched her brother being asleep with Lilith. Walking over and tugging his sleeve a bit. When she noticed he hadn't woken up she moved her hand away. "I'll be right back." She whispered to them. Leaving the room soon after.

Glancing around before heading down the hall. Needing to use the bathroom until she found one. Heading inside to use it before not taking too long as she was out in no time. Opening the door quietly.

Hearing something and taking closer steps to the stage. Stopping in her tracks as she glanced towards the stage. "Hello?" She asked. Resuming her walk towards the stage. "I know you're back there. Might as well come out."

Her smile dropping a bit when she noticed a pair of glowing eyes coming from the dark. Her eyes watching as an animatronic walked closer to her from behind the curtain.

Mike was back to the familiar woods like usual as he was wearing the familiar green shirt and jeans. The clothes that he had been wearing when Garrett went missing that day.

Hearing the car driving away as he turned around. Expecting to find the group of kids like before. Being surprised to see only one of them. The blonde boy with the stripped long sleeved shirt.

The young boy having his back to Mike as he drew on the ground. Not saying a word to him. Not even bothering with turning around to face him.

Mike stayed silent for a moment before having something to ask. "You're those kids, right?" He asked

The boy stopped his arm motions at his question. Glancing at the ground before continuing his drawing on the ground. Not saying a word to Mike at all just yet.

"The one's who disappeared?" Mike asked another question.

The young boy stopped his drawing once more. He could tell Mike was stepping closer to him. He didn't bother turning around for him.

Mike kept a small distance. Kneeling down to his level behind him. "Look." Mike spoke up once more. "I don't know how it's possible that you're here like this in my dream, but... I need your help. Please. Help me remember the man who took my brother."

The boy finally got up from the floor. Turning to him as he dusted his hands clean. "If we show you, what will you give us?" He asked. Finally speaking with him for once compared to running away like the first two times.

"Anything." Mike spoke in a split second with no hesitation. "I'll give you anything you want." Hearing a scream in the distance as he turned in that direction before turning back to find him gone.

His eyes glancing at the drawing the boy had been doing in the dirt before the scream was heard again. Waking up in the office space as he noticed his head leaning on the desk and his girlfriend no longer in his arms.

Removing his headphones and setting them aside. His hands coming up to his eyes and rubbing the sleep out of them. Unaware of anything else going on. Turning around before seeing Abby was missing too. "Abby? Lilith?"

Hearing a scream coming from the front of the place as he immediately ran out of the room.

Abby screamed as she was surrounded by the animatronics. "Stop! Stop! Stop!" She yelled once more by them.

"Abby! Abby?" Mike stopped in his tracks seeing the animatronics. Grabbing the closest thing to him which was a chair. Watching as Freddy began to approach him. Raising the chair to try and attack but being unable to as he simply moved back a bit.

"Mike!" Abby giggled as she was fine. "They wouldn't stop tickling me. I thought I was going to die."

Mike listened to her as his features were etched in confusion at her words. "W-what..?"

"Freddy, this is my brother Mike." Abby spoke to the bear animatronic as her words seemed to calm him down and look more friendly.

"Abby, what is this?" He asked.

"Come on." Abby spoke. "I want you to meet the others."

Mike set the chair back down before following after his sister. Hesitantly stepping closer to the other animatronics.

"Mike, this is Bonnie, Foxy, and Chica." Abby spoke. "Everyone, this is Mike."

"This- this is a joke, right?" Mike asked as he glanced around. Unable to believe that animatronics could be walking and talking on their own. "I mean.. th-there's someone here. Is this Lilith?" He continued in disbelief. "Her or someone else controlling them? Okay, good joke! Congratulations! You got me! You can come out now! Hello?" He called out.

"It's okay Mike. They just want to play." Abby spoke up.

Chica closed one of her eyes in a wink. Making Abby laugh at the gesture from her.

"Where's Lilith? Where's my wife?" Mike asked the animatronics. Watching them share a glance before Bonnie left the group. "Where is he going?"

Abby gave a small smile. "He's going to go get her." She spoke calmly.

Bonnie took a while before soon returning with Lilith. Walking by her side. Going the same speed as her.

"Lilith." Mike let out in a breathe before rushing over as he immediately hugged her. "What happened?" He asked.

"I woke up to Abby screaming and kind of panicked when I saw them. I ended up hitting my cheek on Bonnie while Abby explained things. I was in the bathroom checking the damage but it's just a small bruise." Lilith explained.

"Don't leave me like that again. I thought you were.."

"I'm okay Mike." Lilith reassured.

Mike nodded in relief before turning to Abby. "We have to go home now, come on." He spoke.

"Hold on." Abby spoke as she wasn't ready to go just yet. Pulling out paper and her marker. "They really like pictures." Handing Bonnie a heart picture. "I had a lot of fun tonight. Thank you for playing with me."

"Okay, okay, Abby, come on. We need to get going home."

"Okay." Abby spoke as she walked their way. Stopping to hug Freddy before following Mike and Lilith. "Bye!" She spoke up to the animatronics.

Mike drove the two of them home as he was a bit more awake than them. Letting Abby sleep in the backseat before holding his fiancée's hand until they arrived home.

Letting her head to their room first as he carried Abby to her bed and tucked her in. "There you go." He whispered and had her stay asleep.

Walking to her chair as he sat down for a moment to let the night sink in. He was still processing things but he noticed her drawings. Seeing how familiar they were. Glancing at her sleeping figure before glancing back at the drawings.

He knew exactly who she had been drawing. He had been seeing them since the moment he chose to take on his security job. Keeping in mind that he'd have to ask her about it when she woke up again. Not wanting to bother her at the moment as he got up and walked out the door. Heading across the hall to his room.

There was still a lot of things he did not know and he knew he'd have to get answers eventually. He didn't know much longer he could be patient for.
