No Pulse (A CTW Funtime Freddy x Fem Reader story)

Overtime

Dave sat in his dimly lit room, papers covering the surface of his desk. Tomorrow would be the day. It had to be tomorrow. The police were hunting for Y/N, everyone was honestly. He couldn't wait any longer. If they took her, all this work, everything he's done, would be for nothing. He stood and took a step back, diagrams pinned into the wall. All he had to do was lure her into the storage room. The cameras would be down, he'd be sure of it. He could collect her remnant and he would finally have the immortality he's been dreaming of.

You had gone home. Last night was uneventful... Mostly. You had to be at work soon which was comforting. You'd get to see Freddy. The connection you felt with him was odd... You couldn't help but crave his affection. Despite his outbursts, you truly did feel a bond with him. Was that strange? To care for something inhuman the way you did? Maybe so, but who cared.

You've been asking recently if Freddy had the same type of feelings you did. You wanted to ask him, desperately. But why even try? He's a robot. His feelings are artificial, he couldn't love you no matter what you did. Was that true? Maybe you could program him... Run away with him and alter his code, make him love you. Make him obsessed with you and only want you. But would that be healthy?

6:32 pm. You decided to do some grocery shopping with some money you had earned. Nothing much, some stuff to make basic tacos... Beens, cheese, lettuce, chicken.... Normally you would've have picked tacos to be your meal for the next 2-3 days, but Freddy made tacos.... Maybe when you had him back he'd make some for you.

9:27 pm. Your phone buzzed as your screen lit up. You were in the middle of making your tacos. You set down your kitchen knife and grabbed your phone; "Hey Y/N, I'm aware this is sudden, but how would you like to come in and help clean up? You could earn some extra cash." You didn't have this number saved, but assumed it was Dave, obviously. You don't work anywhere besides Circus Baby's. Extra cash could go a long way for you right now...

"See you in 20."

10:04 pm. Your car slowed to a stop in the parking lot. You walked to the door and entered the code to get in, but not before checking the letter.

"STORAGE ROOM 01" The letters were bold, hard to miss. That's probably the room Dave needs you to clean. Shocking, that's the room where most of the kitchen equipment was stored, how messy could it really get? You walked inside. Funtime Auditorium had a door that led to the storage hall, which was probably the best shortcut in the whole place. You'd get this over with than check on Freddy and Ballora.

You entered Funtime Auditorium. The room was nearly pitch black. Quieter. Funtime Foxy wasn't on stage... He was probably with Ballora. You entered the storage hall, it seemed brighter in here than anywhere... you walked down the left side of the hall. "04..... 03..... 02.....-"

"Y/N?" That whispery voice said through a cracked door. You looked in the gap where Circus Baby stood, green eyes fixed on your face.

"Baby?" You smiled. Circus Baby shook her head slowly, pressing a metal finger against her face plate, shushing you.

"He doesn't know I'm here." You looked back at the door directly beside you, Storage Room 01.

"Who, Dave?" You whispered. Baby nodded slowly, her neck creaking quietly. Her eyes shifted, left to right.

"You cannot go in there Y/N.... You won't come out." Her eyes narrowed at you. She backed further into the room, holding her hand out and motioning you to enter. You stepped forward, closing the door behind you. Baby pulled a string and the light flickered to life, casting a sickly yellow hue across the rooms walls. These backrooms looked so worn down for this place to be new...

"Can you explain?" Your head tilted sideways as you looked up at her. She leaned forward, her face inches from yours.

"If you go in there, you will die." She stood straight once more, looking around the room. "Dave has intentions to kill you, Y/N. If you stay, you will become a victim."

You stood, frozen where you stand. Why would he want you dead? Did he know about your plans to take Freddy? Shit...

"Then what do I do..." you turned back to the door, anxiety rising in you. Dave could walk in any moment and murder you if he wanted.

"You must leave." Baby placed a hand on your shoulder, turning you to face her, "You must leave, Y/N, and never come back."

You shook your head at her, "I can't... I can't leave without Freddy...."

She nodded, "Than take Freddy with you."

You stared at her for a moment, "But how? He can't go past the elevator. And there aren't anymore exits!"

Baby smiled at you, "He cannot leave due to a tracking him inserted in his chest cavity. Dave placed it there. If we can remove it, he will be able to leave."

You nodded, "but how do we get it out?" Her eyes seemed to brighten up.

"There is a room... it will be perfect to remove the chip without fear of Dave entering. He no longer has access to the room. You will be safe from him and can remove the chip."

You nodded, "but what about you Baby? You're just going to stay here? And Ballora and Foxy...? Don't you want to come?"

She nodded, "We have our own method, I spent a lot of time working on it.... We will be free very soon..." she sighed, "I cannot wait to leave... There is not peace to be found here...."

From behind you, you heard a door slam.
