Five Nights Till Freedom

The First Casualty

"Mangle! Mangle, please!"

BB was crying so hard I could feel his body shaking unsteady against my own, "Please fight it!" He had his arms tight around Mangle and he was brushing her hair away from her face.

I was frozen still.

I felt Foxy quickly fall to his knees and move over to Mangle, pulling her off me and BB and setting her on the floor, "BB what happened?!" He nearly yelled at him, his eyes dilating at tremendous speeds.

BB could barely speak through his sobs, "She just collapsed! I took her to my spot because she said she had to tell me something important." His sobs kept continuing, interrupting his speech.

I quickly put my arms around the boy and hugged him tightly to my chest, trying to do my best to comfort him as my own tears began to stream down my face.

"Th...then she..." BB gasped out, shutting his eyes, "As she was about to tell me she began to go into a seizure and finally collapsed." He kept crying and crying, tears falling down his face by the gallon.

Fred came over as well, leaning down beside Mangle as he gently picked up her wrist, putting two fingers to the inside.

His gaze was immediately turned to sorrow as he then looked up at me. His face was paling and I could see his chest beginning to rise and fall more rapidly.

"She..."

Suddenly Mangle shot straight up, causing all of us to yelp in fright, jumping backwards.

Fred's eyes were wide and his lip was trembling softly.

Foxy was the first one to get rid of his shock as he quickly wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close to him, "Mangle! Thank God you're alri...."

He suddenly began to trail off as we could hear soft growling noises coming from her. Foxy let go of her and slowly began to back away, "Mangle?"

BB in my arms began to tremble more , "Mangle, fight it please!" He nearly screamed.

I didnt know what was going on, but I could tell that something was definitely wrong, "BB what's happen..."

Suddenly Mangles head shot around to face me and I nearly screamed at what I saw.

Mangles eyes were blood red, her irises jagged slits like a cat. There was a large grin outlining her face and her head was twitching ever so slightly.

She suddenly began giggling, clutching her chest as her giggles turned into stomach churning laughs.

All of us were staring at her in fear, while BB was trying to fight my grip on him, "Let me go Rachel! She needs my help!"

"BB what's wrong with her!?" Foxy yelled as his fox ears pressed against the back of his head in fury.

Mangles giggles then slowly began to calm down, "Why don't you ask me.... brother?" Her gaze turned to Foxy.

Her voice was still hers but it sounded different, more dangerous, layered in darkness.

This definitely wasn't her.

My grip on BB was suddenly ripped free as he sprang onto Mangle, causing her to collapse on the ground, "Get out of her body! Don't use her!"

Mangle grinned again at him as he suddenly was thrown back against the wall at such a force that he crumbled to the ground.

"BB!", Fred jumped up and rushed towards him, picking him up and holding his limp body to his chest. I could see his hands trembling as he looked back at Mangle, his eyes full of anger.

She was slowly beginning to stand up, teetering on her feet as she slowly looked between the three of us still watching, "You guys can't control me, ever since you stepped in this restraunt you belonged to me. You never had your free will..."

The voice was seeping into my soul, it was completely calm and free of emotion except for the tiniest hint of amusment, but the words definitely caused a spark of memory to stir up.

The stories, the reason their here.

"You. Never controlled us, you bastard!" I then saw behind Foxy, the figure of Bon walking towards us. His gaze was dark, his eyes almost black. He looked like he could murder someone without a bat of an eye. He pushed past Foxy, starting to approach Mangle, "And you never will." He growled.

Mangle began to laugh again, her eyes narrowing in his direction, not scared as he began to approach, "Youre not strong enough to fight me Bon. You're the weakest of the entire group. Your soul will be mine."

Foxy then bit his lip and he looked up from the ground, his eyes were bloodshot, "Get out of her body Puppet!"

She then looked towards him, resting one hand against her cheek, "Certainly my dear Foxy, anything for you."

Mangle then began to scream, suddenly thrown back against the wall. She was squirming furiously as she threw herself over and over against against the wall, her eyes were wide and cloudy, the jagged irises still there.

She then stopped screaming and collapsed like a weight.

I ran as fast as I could and I caught her before she hit the ground. Tears were streaming down my face like waterfalls but I slowly with trembling hands placed my fingers against her neck.

I closed my eyes and began to sob.

There was no pulse.
