(Tales of the Aftons) A showmen's false facade.

(TAPE Four) Getting started

                             (BEGIN TAPE 4)

It's been a while.... Haven't gotten the time to continue the set of tapes....how long has it been since I last did one of these? I finally have gotten the time to continue these tape. Elizabeth is taking care of Evan and Micheal is out with friends. Where did I last left off again....oh right when me and Henry made our first attempt at starting a business.

From where I left off....After three years of saving money me and Henry had finally had enough to buy are first building. It wasn't anything fancy at all. If anything it was rather dirty. The floor's were unkept, the ceiling was caving in on itself, and the kitchen... I don't wish to talk about nor do I believe you would wish to hear it. As we could both tell the building need a lot of work.

At first we decide to make it look presentable to the pubic so we could start to make some money to fund the rest of the clean up. It wasn't pretty at all we mostly had to move anything that was destroyed in the back and close off any place that needed renovations. Me and Henry decide to split up to get it finished at soon as we could.

Henry would clean the kitchen and then buy food to prepare with. While I would clean as much as possible and set up the main room. It took around a week or so to finish the cleaning. It was tedious but not without at least one thing to come of it...or more of two things to come of it. Both me and Henry had found something rather interesting while fixing up are spots. What I had found was by complete accident. While chasing a rat I had loss my footing I had crashed into a wall. At first I was annoyed think that the rat had gotten away. But then I realized that I was in a completely new room that neither of knew existed. It wasn't anything special of sorts it was a rather small sized room. But I decide it would work perfect as a storage room.

Within it was many empty shelf's seeming to be a give away that this room was intended for storage. When Henry came to check it out he stated that I would be perfect for storing spare animatronic parts for later used. I decide to clean it out for later usage then. While cleaning it I found a rather interesting book seeming to be left there on purpose. It was tucked within a rather hard space to find. The book itself seemed to be about occultist stuff. From the quick overview i saw a lot of rambling about weird elements but I decided not look any deeper. But I decide to keep it for if I had the time I could read it over.

But enough of my rambling's. What Henry had found was much more important. While Henry was out buying supplies he found a poster. The poster was advertising a type of fair. While it seemed uninspired all things considered that wasn't important. At the side in small lettering it stated that a robotics section would be happening this fair. Where you could show off you invention's or buy others. It was going to happen within two day. Henry told me that this could be chance to try and get people to invest in are business. I told Henry that while yes he could be correct we didn't have anything to show off. Fredbear and spring Bonnie both didn't even have finished endoskeleton.

But then it hit both of us that we didn't have anything to put on the stage yet. Henry was embarrassed that he never thought of that but for me I came up with an idea. The section stated it was both to show of and to buy. I told Henry we could go and buy cheap animatronics and use them while we finished up Fredbear and spring Bonnie. Henry had his doubts about it feeling it was wrong to buy others invention's to use as our own. But I told him that they would be the ones selling them to use so they were given us the right to use them as we saw fit. If they didn't want us to use them for monetary value then why even go there?Henry decide to go with my plan. When the section was going to be open we decided to go.

When the event section was finally happening we had use some of our emergency funding to stock up on food for the restaurant so that we wouldn't have to fear if we had food for opening day. Henry decided to go find a group of animatronics to use while he told me to find any miscellaneous animatronics to keep for later usage. I was annoyed with Henry because while Henry knows what children wanted he couldn't match colors well at all. Henry would never tell this but Fredbear's original color scheme was going to be just plain brown. While it wasn't the worst I had felt that I needed to steer him in a better direction. That was what lead to Fredbear and Spring Bonnie to have similar color scheme's.
