Author's note.

Okay, if this isn't up tonight, then I'll explain this now. Starting from the 29th of May, I'll be on holiday with my family for four weeks. So, the updates are going to be VERY inconsistent for the next 4 weeks. I'll be in England for my Grandma's 80th Birthday. Now, with that out of the way, leave a review, sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

Chapter 2

Welcome to Playtime Co

The Rustbucket stopped outside of Playtime Co. The building was dirty and grimey, like no one had entered it in years.

"This place looks like it hasn't been open in years" said Ben.

"Duh", said Gwen. "It's been closed for 10 years, doofus".

"Knock it off you two" said Max. He then put on his Plumber belt.

"Now, let's go" said Max. The three of then then headed towards the factory. They got to the front door.

"Please don't be locked" said Ben. He then grabbed the door handle and pulled. The door then opened.

"Huh, well what do you know?", said Ben. "It isn't".

"Why would the factory doors be unlocked?" Asked Gwen.

"Stay sharp", said Max. "There could be someone else in here". The three then entered. But, the door then slammed shut behind them. Ben ran over to it and tried to pull it open, but it wouldn't budge.

"We're trapped" said Ben.

"That's odd", said Max. "Why was unlocked when we arrived, but it's now locked up?".

"Hey, check this out" said Gwen. She then held up a green VHS tape.

"Why would that be out here?" Asked Ben.

"Maybe someone planted it" answered Gwen. She walked over to the VHS player and placed the tape in before pressing play. They gathered around as the tape played.

'Hello. My name, is Leith Pierre and I'm the head of innovation at Playtime Co. If you're seeing this, then you're trespassing. Yeah, we play this tape on loop whenever we close the place for the day. So, trespasser, to make you aware. While we do pride ourselves on our toys and excellent childcare, we also pride ourselves on our security. For example, the facility is full of hidden motion triggers, which when set off, will directly contact the authorities. And, that's one of the more tame aspects of our security, no spoilers, but, you've got my warning. I just hope that whatever you're looking for is worth it'.

The tape then stopped.

"That sounded more like a threat then a warning" said Gwen.

"Hey, check this out" said Ben pointing towards the gift shop.

Max and Gwen looked in his direction and saw that the gift shop was completely destroyed. Ben then walked in and saw a toy train laying on the ground. There was a green engine with pink, yellow and red carriages.

"There's something on the floor next to this" said Ben.

Max and Gwen then walked over to him and saw that he was right. On the floor next to the train, was some writing it read 'follow the train's schedule'.

"Follow the train's schedule?", asked Gwen. "That has to mean something".

Ben looked at the train, then towards a glass door with a coloured keypad. Then, he got an idea. He ran over to the door and typed Green, Pink, Yellow, Red in the pad. The door then opened.

"Hah!", shouted Ben. "I knew-AH!".

Ben saw a giant poster that said 'Poppy wants to play' and it had Poppy's eyes watching them. It scared him and made him land on his butt.
