          It was almost 12. Well, 11:42, to be exact. You bet everyone was waiting for you in the office. It was your first time working at Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria. You've been there when you were a child. The place gave you memories worth clinging on for years to come. You remembered playing with the ever so friendly animal animatronics that represent Freddy Fazbear's.

          However, all of that changed when you heard about the incident involving the kidnapping and death of five children in that very pizzeria. News had it, five children went missing and were found dead, four of them stuffed into the four main animatronic mascots and the other still missing. The fifth child was never found but based on some stray parts of the body such as eyeballs, teeth and hair lying around the franchise's branch, it was confirmed that those indeed belonged to the last missing child. The case was closed, but reports and rumors showed that people heard cries of children and strange paranormal-like activity in the pizzeria. People have complained about the animatronics moving about when not in their free roam mode.

          Then there's the Bite of 87'. Reports have shown a kid getting bitten by one of the animatronics, having the front part of their brain, the frontal lobe, bitten off. It scarred you temporarily when you first heard the news, not knowing the friendly, loveable robots you grew accustomed with would cause so much trouble. And let's not forget the rumors that spread like wildfire. The rumors about ghosts haunting the place. Supposedly the ghosts of the five missing children. All these gave you the creeps ever since, and you didn't want to have to do anything with that place anymore. But fate had something else planned for you. Fate's one son of a bitch, is all you can say.

          Soon after you moved out of your old house to your new apartment, you had to make some money. So you started looking for a job. Unfortunately, no one was hiring at the moment. That made you stuck jobless for a few weeks, using up almost all the money you saved. So much for financial savings.

          When one day you decided to visit Freddy's for pizza, you noticed an ad for a night guard job there. You had zero experience in guard duty but that was the best option you had at that point, even if it means risking your life, not to mention you were pretty desperate. A few days later, you got the job, mostly because nobody else would turn in a job like that. Even if the pay was low, you still took whatever opportunity came by.

          And that's how you ended up joining the night shift with five other guards, cause you heard the action there could get really intense.

          Glancing at your wristwatch, you hurried down the dark hallway, ten more minutes until your job starts. When you saw light from a turn to the right, you slowed down your pace. Straightening your tie and hat and fixing your hair, you inhaled deeply and took a right. The five guards you saw in front of you were not like how you had expected them to be at all.

          This was going to be one hell of a night.
