Things didn't pick up until about 2 am, when I decided to check the cameras one more time. I flipped through them nonchalantly, with Michael sitting behind me, but then I landed on the camera to the main area. The
lights were on, these ones were colored for the mascot's main colors. Black for Mother Undead, gold for the Keeper, green for Ms. Espel and red for BloodHound. I turned to face the area that turned these lights on the first place, and attempted to shut them off but the switches decided to get stuck. I looked over to the cameras and there was someone, a woman in a black dress; standing there. She wasn't even looking at the screen, she was just there.
"Who is that?" Michael asked me.
"I don't know, but part of me wants to grab an Ouija board" I said sarcastically. Then the woman on the cameras moved and the lights suddenly all died out and then turned red. Throughout the entire restaurant. And they began to flicker, flashing off and on, sending red light everywhere. Then I saw Michael fly out of the room, as if he was grabbed.

"MICHAEL!!" I screamed as I witnessed this.

Then it all became quiet and all I could hear were high heels walking towards the room. I was scared shitless, and I hid the only place I could. Underneath the desk. I crawled and fit myself into the tiny space that was underneath the desk. I waited and heard the woman call out from the hallway. "Why are you hiding from me?"
"Gee, I don't know, maybe because I'm scared. Who the hell are you?" I said back to the voice.
"You don't recognize my voice? I'm your creation"
"What are you talking about?" I questioned. "I don't know you!"
"Yes you do. You know me more than you know yourself, Marcie" The voice said as I saw the heels walk into the room.

What I'm about to do next was possibly the dumbest thing I've done in my entire life. I want you to take a moment and question what you would do in this moment. Stay under there? Try to sneak out quietly? Yeah I did neither of those.

I sprinted out from under the desk and tackled the woman before running out of the room. I booked it to the main area and attempted to open the door, but to no avail.
"Why is everything in this damn place stuck?" I grumbled, but then I heard the sound of female laughter play through my ears as if it was 8D audio. Then it was as if I had been grabbed by a giant hand as I was lifted into the air. Walking out was the woman. I finally got a good look at her and it was Josephine, in the black dress again. She was holding her hand out, like she was the one lifting me up. She clicked her tongue. "It's a shame. You look so young to die like this" She said as her eyes turned a deep red.
What the hell? Then she moved her hand and I was sent flying into a wall, through the wall, and onto the ground of the back room. I groaned in pain as I landed on my back and felt my bleeding nose. Fragile, I am. Josephine hopped through the hole in the wall.
"Josephine-" I started to say before she interrupted me. "Wow, you can't even address me accordingly? I'm heartbroken. It's Mother Undead. Josephine's gone" She said to me. I managed to crawl onto my knees but was met with a heel into my back, pushing me back down to the ground. I shouted in pain as the heel end pierced my back. She held her hand up and started to choke me out without even touching me. She grew some form of claws out of her hand and slashed up my leg, around the ankle area. It hurt so bad, that I obviously screamed out in pain. I looked around for anything, anything at all. Then I saw it.

Luckily for me, I was in the back room with the signatures. I grabbed The Keeper's axe and swung backwards, managing to hit her right in the face, causing her to drop me. I held my grip on the axe as I booked it out of there, looking for anywhere to go. Well I was limping due to the injury, but I've been in worse condition before. So I was fine. A normal person would then try to hack open the wall or something to get out, but Mother Undead was right on my tail. I sprinted through the restaurant, making it close to where that tree room was. I made it to a gate and climbed over it. I remember that there was an elevator behind this gate, to get to the storage areas underneath it. But since this restaurant is SO ASS, the buttons didn't work when I got there and tried them. Mother Undead cleared the gate, ripping it straight off of the wall, and ran towards me. I used the axe and slashed at some wires that suspended up the elevator, and I went plummeting.

Even past the storage area, I just kept going down. The elevator hit the floor with a BANG!!
