''The Difference between Wants and Needs''

Chapter 3 (A1)

(JONAH- POV)

Jonah could hear them arguing over the phone. He stared down at the phone, pretty confused. "Look, do you need help or not?!" Adam muttered into the phone, beside him. The person on the other side spoke up.

"Yeah, I do! I just killed an alternate, and I heard you guys were the ones to call, so-" He started arguing with another person. Jonah tried to bring his attention back to the phone call. "Well, how much are you planning on paying us to get rid of this thing-"

Adam interrupted. "Shut up, Jonah!"

Jonah scowled. Adam was such an arrogant little shit sometimes. Thought he was better than everyone else. He rolled his eyes as Adam spoke again.

"Just tell us your address, sir. We'll be there soon."

(MARK- POV)

"How do I know you aren't one of them too?!"

Mark yelled. Penny flinched. "I am not a monster."

"Oh sure, sure. Miss 'I collect headless dolls and stare at people with soulless eyes'!"

Penny gasped, holding her stupid doll closer to her. "I am not a monster!"

"Yes you are! If I had enough bullets, I would've shot you too. You're nothing but a freaking monster."

Mark felt a bit guilty, but he didn't take it back. "The BPS are on the way. They'll deal with you." He said. Penny stepped back, shaking her head. There was a knock at the door. Mark opened it, and two people stepped in.

"Hey! So, where's the alternate?" The one with silvery hair asked.

"There's two." Mark pointed at Cesar, who was slumped in the chair, then at Penny. Penny was still backing away.

"I am not a monster."

"Sure you aren't. Look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way." The blonde one grinned as he spoke. Mark watched as she shook her head, then as they proceeded to drag her away.

(PENNY- POV)

Penny looked around frantically. She was in the back of a car, the intruder's corpse next to her. The two captors sat in the driver and passenger seat, talking amongst themselves. And then something moved out of the corner of her eye. The corpse had shifted ever so slightly.

Y'know what? F*ck this. Penny shook the intruder, prompting him to wake up.

"Ow... My head-"

"Shh!"

The alternate looked around, confused.

"What the- why are we in the back of a car?"

He asked. Penny glanced at the two people up front, then whispered:

"Mark had some people called the BPS to come take us away."

She explained. The intruder nodded. "Ok well, why are you here?" He asked. Penny paused. "He thinks I'm like you. I'm not. I'm not a monster."

"Gee thanks."

"Sorry."

"Well Jane, you can call me Cesar. But for now, it's time we make our exit." Cesar pointed his hand at the radio upfront, he must've had some sort of ability that allowed him to manipulate it. The two captors yelled as the radio's volume suddenly blasted.

"Holy shit!"

The blonde one driving the car swerved on the road a bit, and Cesar took that opportunity to leave. He quickly broke the lock on the door and jumped out recklessly, yanking Penny along with him.

The two landed in the grass, and Cesar helped Penny up before running into the woods. Penny followed.

"C'mon, this way!"

Cesar led her farther into the woods, until they were completely surrounded by trees. Penny could faintly hear the two captors yelling and calling out for them. Penny could see a building in the distance, and she felt they needed to hide there. She and her new friend snuck over to the building.

Opening the door was louder than she had hoped, but she didn't hear any footsteps besides her and Cesar's. The two walked in cautiously, looking around carefully. A slight glowing light came from around the corner. Hm... The two walked closer, rats swarming around them. And then she saw it.

The animatronic she knew all too well.
