Ghosts in the Pizzaplex - FNaF

Chapter 60

The next day went smoother, Nole stopped by again, bringing some other clothes he found. Alec ended up being carried around by Reed who liked having the animatronic bear with him for protection. Hudson ended up sleeping through most of the day, in Delilah and Jeremiah's room, which Delilah ended up switching out of and into a room with Sarah and Angel, much to Angel's distaste of the "old" woman. Delilah was not very old, only late 20's, and even so she was dead so what does age matter. Gregory and Devon finally got to challenge each other on the racing game and Toby watched, being forced to go out and socialize by Sam, even though he was working. Jeremiah was in the back again, and Sarah and Angel were just wandering around, having fun. Dirk stayed in the back, having to babysit Julius while Delilah actually had a fun time wandering around and talking with other guests. She was standing just inside of Chica's Mazercise, the smell of pizza was almost overwhelmed by the smell of people working out, following along with Chica's exercise video out the front, and people going in and out of the actual maze. The moving walls made it a bit confusing and Delilah would never want to go in there in fear of getting lost or trapped. She didn't like being trapped. A dayguard was standing near the exit, a radio in hand and keeping an eye on who comes out. He spots Delilah meandering around Mazercise and goes over to her.

"Looking for someone?" he asked.

"No. Just trying to figure out what's going on," she sighed.

"Fair. We've just been having parents complaining about their kids getting lost in the maze," he tips his head, "I didn't mean to bother you."

"It's fine," she looks at his badge, "Grady. I can understand the concern, with the past on the franchise."

"We don't really like talking about that," he admits. She nods. A shorter and rounder woman came stomping up to Grady, beginning to complain and he sighed and led her away from the majority of people in the room, near a wall. Delilah wandered out of Mazercise, bumping into a younger boy on her way out, who cussed at her and ran past her.

"Geez... kids..." Delilah muttered and walked around looking for one of the others to talk to. She saw Nole talking with Reed, who was holding the bear Alec possessed and wandered over to them.

"Hello," she smiled.

"Hey Delilah," Nole smiled. Alec waved his little bear arms and Reed gave a small smile.

"What are you guys talking about?" she asked.

"How Nole hasn't really aged even though it's been a little while since he saw Sam but looks the same," Alec said quickly. Nole chuckled.

"Oh. It's because of your contact with remnant," Delilah said. Nole looked at her, confused.

"What? I knew someone who managed to possess his own dead body and slowly heal it because of remnant. Man knew all sorts of things about it from a friend of his. One of those things being that prolonged contact with remnant, or whatever powers us spirits, can actually slow and even stop aging for amounts of time," Delilah explained. Nole looked shocked and Reed looked genuinely interested.

"That's really cool," he said.

"Shit ok... I didn't know that. Explains a lot though..." Nole looked like his whole world was thrown sideways and looks at his hands like they multiplied.

"Who knew all this stuff?" Alec asked.

"A man named Michael. Good friend of mine and Stanley's," Delilah smiled. Nole looked at her when she said Stanley and went to open his mouth to say something.

"Yes, it's the guy your ex-girlfriend left you for," Delilah stated, "Sam figured it out and told us."

"Oh. He remembered?" Nole asked.

"Yes. He remembers quite a lot about you guys and is quite fond of his memories of you guys," she said. She ended up spending a lot of time getting to know Nole, better than their smaller conversations in the past. Alec and Reed ended up talking amongst themselves before Reed went to get some food, taking the possessed animatronic with him.
