...There, in the dim light filtering through the cracks in the walls, stood Freddy Fazbear, his metal jaws hanging open in a grotesque approximation of a smile. And he wasn't alone. To Tom's horror, he saw that the other animatronics had joined Freddy in the basement, their eyes glowing eerily in the darkness. He backed away slowly, his mind reeling with disbelief. How had they gotten down here? And what did they want with him? Before he could formulate a plan, the animatronics began to advance, their movements stiff and jerky. Tom turned and ran, his footsteps echoing off the concrete walls as he fled for his life. He could hear the clanking of metal behind him, getting closer with each passing second. Just when he thought he couldn't run anymore, Tom burst through the door at the top of the stairs and into the relative safety of the main dining area. He didn't stop to catch his breath, didn't pause to think. He simply ran as fast as his legs would carry him, out the front door and into the cool night air.
As he stumbled out onto the sidewalk, Tom looked back at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, his heart still racing with adrenaline. He knew he would never be able to forget what he had seen, never be able to erase the memory of those glowing eyes staring at him from the darkness. But one thing was for certain: he would never set foot in that place again. And as he walked away into the night, he couldn't help but wonder what other horrors lay hidden behind the cheerful facade of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.
