"Dude, are you sure we didn't go too far?"

"I'm sure, Guy; Eric knows how to take a joke!"

"But faking disappearances?"

"Ok, maybe he'll be a bit ticked... but it'll be perfect for setting him in the mood for the attraction!"

"I guess, Man... but was blocking the exits from the outside really necessary? I mean, what if there's, like, an emergency?"

"Like what? You know the whole 'faulty wiring' thing was just a joke."

"I know, but I'm worried, Man..."

"Just relax. It's 6 am and we're almost there. That's when we'll head inside and tell Eric everything."

"I guess you're right..."

Guy and I were silent for the rest of the car ride over to Fazbear's Fright. I began thinking about what he said, about taking the 'vanishing' prank too far. Sure, Eric can be gullible, but he knows how to take a joke. I'm sure he'll be fine.

We finally pulled up to the attraction and walked to the entrance, which had a metal bar across it, locking the door.

"The building's still in one piece," I told Guy in reassurance. He slowly nodded and adjusted his shades.

I pulled the bar off and opened the door. My original plan was to call out to Eric in a weird voice from this end to freak him out. Instead, I gasped as I saw a familiar figure on the floor, wheezing as a stinking yellow rabbit stood over him, grasping his neck.

"ERIC!" I screamed as I ran towards my friend.

I started kicking the arms of Springtrap. He made a sound, somewhere in between a wheeze and a scream. Eventually he let go, Eric shutting his eyes, but breathing.

"What the heck?!" Guy yelled, lifting Eric up. "Are you okay?!"

Springtrap then started to throw punches at me, making that weird, screaming sound.

"It's as if it's alive!!" I whispered to myself, gagging at the horrible stench that wafted from the bunny.

I kept kicking the robot until it eventually fell to the ground. I ran back over to Guy and Eric.

Eric had opened his eyes, wheezing. "What happened..?" He then gurgled. "I WAS BEING STRANGLED BY A RABBIT!!!"

Both Guy and I shared glances. What were we supposed to say?

"... You guys are okay?! But, you went missing?!" Eric grabbed his throat.

"No.. It was a prank.. and we locked the doors.." Guy ventured, looking at me.

"I ALMOST DIED!!" Eric yelped.

"We understand.." I murmured.

"No!! You don't understand!!" Eric's eyes watered. "Atleast you're o-" We heard a loud BANG! as Eric slumped and fell to the ground. Behind him stood Springtrap, and it looked like he was smiling, gripping a pipe tightly.

"HEY!!" I stood up, about to attack the robot again, but then Springtrap swung the pipe at me. I screamed in pain as the pipe hit me right above my right eye, and I could feel blood trickling down my face. "AAgh!!" I brought my hand up to my wound, staggering backwards and falling onto my rear. "Gahh!!"

"Chuck!!" Guy yelped, looking at the spring bunny.

Guy snatched the pipe out of Springtrap's hands and swung it Springtrap's face! Guy's face twisted with rage and he swung the pipe with all his might, making the rabbit double backwards. Guy kept swinging the pipe, over and over again, never missing his target.

Finally, the bunny fell to the floor, looking at Guy. Springtrap raised his hand, and made a sound.

"H...e....l...p.." It wheezed, and then Guy brought the pipe down on it once more, silencing the robot. He then ran back over to Eric and I.

"Chuck, are you okay?!"

"Yea, but I think I'll need an eyepatch.."

"Yarr! I be Foxy the pirate!" Guy then made the lousiest Foxy impression ever.

"You suck," I told him.

"Thanks," He replied, walking over and looking at Eric. "He's got a large knot on the back of his head and he's bleeding a bit, but he should be okay.."

"Then why isn't he waking up?!"

Guy stared.

"Crap!!" I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and dialed 9-1-1. Well, this is going to be a pleasure to explain..
