A few years later, the pizzeria was still in business, the kids happily singing along to their gleeful songs.

"Wow - I feel more famous than Justin Beiber!" shouted Freddy.

"I know. The kiddies always seem to be happy," said Foxy. "I think we need a bigger soundtrack of songs, though."

"Pizzaaaaaa!" Chica screamed.

"That's the fifth time she's done that today," exclaimed Bonnie. "Chica - will you stop saying 'Pizza'" You know you can't eat it."

"But I miss pizza. I used to have it every Sunday," Chica complained.

"You have no digestive system. So get over it," said Bonnie.

"Let's stop talking about Chica's strange obsession with pizza," said Freddy. "We got a show to do!"

The curtain opened to reveal Freddy and his pals, except Foxy. The kids cheered. "Let's welcome Foxy onto the stage," announced Bonnie.

"Yar, kiddies! Are you ready for a song straight from the seven seas?"

"Yes!" shouted the kids.

And with that, Foxy started singing "You are a Pirate."

"Mom! Mom! Can I go up onstage to see Foxy?" said a little girl.

"Oh, I suppose it'll do you no harm," said her mother.

"Thanks, Mommy!"

The girl walked on, just as Foxy was telling his story about sailing the deep blue and finding treasure.

"Miss, your kid shouldn't really be up there," said Jeremy.

"Why?" she questioned.

"She could wreck Foxy."

"She would never do a thing like that. She's my sweet little girl!"

"Well, Ma'am - if she wrecks a single part on Foxy - on his metal body - I'm going to ban you from coming back here."

"Look, Mommy. Foxy looks so stupid!" said the girl on stage. "I bet he's so dumb he couldn't even sail a ship," she said, sneering.

Foxy bubbled with anger, and felt like screaming words of hate right back to her. Instead, he opened his mouth very wide and sank his razor sharp teeth into the girl's skull, taking her frontal lobe with it. The girl screamed out in pain and fell to the floor.

"You have to help my daughter!" screamed her mother.

Jeremy turned around to see the little girl lying dead on the floor, blood coming out of her head. He looked at Foxy, blood dripping off his fangs.

"This wasn't supposed to happen. We always check the bots before they perform."

"My girl! My poor little girl!" the mother sobbed.

The girl was taken to the hospital and the next day it was all in the newspaper. Everyone rushed to get a copy, just to read that story. Rumours started spreading about strange things happening at Fazbears - robots malfunctioning, saying things like "kill you" and "delicious flesh."

Foxy got shut up in his cove, permanently. A sign was set up, saying "Out of Order."

That night, Freddy told me what happened.

Why would Jacob (Foxy) do such a thing as that?" I asked.

I (Marionnette) floated over to Foxy's booth, and saw Foxy slumped over in utter gloom. "Foxy!"

"Leave me alone," Foxy growled.

"I'm just here to talk about the little incident that happened yesterday.

"I didn't do it!"

"But Freddy saw you with his own eyes."

"Someone was controlling me!"

"Did you see who it was?"

"No. All I saw was a pair of glowing white eyes."

Purple Man!" exclaimed Marionnette.

"Why do you think it's Purple Man?" asked Foxy.

"Who else has glowing white eyes?"

"You got a point there," Foxy agreed.

The next day was like any other day at Freddy's. Except some of the kids who came there regularly didn't come back because of Foxy being out of order.

One kid was still coming back. His name was Carter. The kids in his class called him a tech whiz. He would spend hours tinkering with stuff like computer hard drives. He once even made a very small robot. Carter peeked behind the Pirate's Cover curtains to see the damaged Foxy standing in the gloom of the booth, eyes closed. Carter stepped inside. "Oh Foxy, you were always my favourite. You told the greatest stories."

"Aye lad, I did," said Foxy.

"AHHH!!"

"Don't be scared."

"You just startled me, that's all."

"So you're not afraid of me?" Foxy asked.

"I admit, just a little."

"Why aren't you with the other kids?"

"Well, you see, I have a younger brother, and I promised him I'd say hi to you."

"Yarr, it's great to see a fan."

"Foxy, can I ask you something?"

"Fire away."

"I've been having these strange but freaky dreams. About a purple man."

"Did he have glowing white eyes?"

"Yes! And he seemed to be killing five kids. But I couldn't see their faces."

"That dream you had was no dream. It was a vision. You see, those kids were my friends - Carly, Mike, Cameron, and my sister, Emma. I was also one of the kids who was killed."

"You were?"

"Yes, I was. And my name is Jacob."

"How did you become this fox robot, though?"

"You see, when we died, our souls still remained. Cameron gave us new bodies and a fresh start at life."

Carter realized that this Jacob was the same friend who would help him with his homework. "After so long, I thought you were dead."

"Aye, Carter. I think you have awakened my memory of you."

Carter started walking toward the show stage, saying his farewells to Foxy.
