After Crawling through the vents for a while, Eclipse eventually reached the other side of a door, likely also on the other side of the electrocuted water. Eclipse quickly located the door and listened through it.

There it is... Eclipse thought. He could hear the electricity through the door, as well as what seemed to be deep, pained growling. Eclipse quickly began to look around the door and found a reroute switch that seemed to link to the door, and whatever was on the other side. He threw the lever, and suddenly the door opened, but the electricity didn't stop. Eclipse rushed over to the door, and gasped. In front of him was what seemed to be a male alligator animatronic that sported pointy teeth, a red mohawk, and a light-yellow color on the outer shell of his lower jaw. At one point, it seemed like it had the same seam on the front of his torso where Glamrock Freddy's chest compartment would open, and a long tail that rans in five green and yellow segments, with each segment having spots and bumps resembling an alligator's scutes. His eyelids, a lightning-like paint on the muzzle, his feet and hands, excluding the fingers, would have also had a tinted a purple color. He was wearing spiked bracelets and the remains of purple shoulder pauldrons. He was also heavily damaged. His jaw was dislocated from his face with one of his teeth turning red. His left arm was nearly, completely destroyed, and his entire outer shell was gone. His body from the hip downward had been broken away, as if torn from his entire upper body, which seemingly forced him to crawl around with his hands instead. He had been stripped to nothing but a rusty, warped endoskeleton. The only remnants of his once-cartoonish exterior were his matted mohawk hairdo, which had been reduced to only a few ragged strands of red hair stuck unto a metal slab attached to his head, and a couple parts of his shell. He had lost his left eye as well, leaving a red LED light in its place, and He also had a long wire going out from his lower body, acting as a tail of sorts.

"Monty...?" Eclipse stuttered as the creature looked at him. Then, Eclipse quickly noticed a wire linking to the door mainframe, and an LED, Glamrock Bonnie light. Eclipse then ripped the wires from the light as far above the water as he could to prevent more electricity, which finally removed the electricity from the water. Eclipse could hear the rest of the group cheering as he quickly reached out his hand. Monty was close to the main area, and he seemed to, somehow, be functional.

"Monty!" Eclipse called, "Grab my hand!" Monty struggled as he barely managed to grab Eclipse's hand. Then, Eclipse managed to lift Monty out of the water, and up to safety. Monty didn't say a word. However, he did seem thankful to see Eclipse.

"Monty," Eclipse said remorsefully, "What happened to you?" Then, Monty grumbled something unintelligible under his breath.

The rest of the group turned the corner, and, in confusion, saw Eclipse holding a very battered endoskeleton with a shaggy red Mohawk.

"Good Job Eclipse," Jason said. "Who's that with you?" Monty suddenly turned to look at the group, snarling and growling. Everyone startled, stepping back a bit as they stared.

"Monty...?" Glamrock Chica said. Her voice was shaky, as if she were about to cry. Monty's eyes widened the second he saw Gregory, and he roared angrily, trying to crawl into the water to get to Gregory with a sudden strength. However, Eclipse held him back.

"Monty, no!" Eclipse shouted. "That little boy is trying to find his friend." Monty snarled and growled. Then, he noticed Gregory's Face. Gregory seemed Guilty, Scared, Confused, and Sorry. Monty slowed down, staring at Gregory as an odd look of remorse filled his eye, and his eye socket. Monty mumbled something under his breath that was inaudible.

"Monty..." Glamrock Freddy called, gently. He slowly approached Monty and looked down at what was left of him.

"Monty," Glamrock Freddy said, "are you alright?" Monty looked up at Freddy. For once in Montgomery Gator's existence, for once in Monty's life, he looked and felt weak. Monty opened his broken jaw and tried to speak.
