Suite Nightmares

All I See Is Red

2AM:

I refused to believe what was happening right now. Why is he here? I thought he would keep me safe. Foxy has been my best friend ever since I got him out of that prize box. He has helped me through all my years of torcher. I don't understand why he would want to kill me. I had so many thoughts flowing through my head but I continued to hold the closet doors shut; making sure that Foxy doesn't get out and rip me to shreds. Once I noticed that the pushing and scratching had stopped, I took great precautions releasing my weight off the doors; opening one of them. My light had turned off by now so I shook it on and shinned the beam inside. I brought out a huge breath that I didn't realize I was holding and calmed down; glad that Foxy was out of my room... probably not for long though.

Since I was holding the door shut for a while, I had no time to sleep because I had to check if other animatronics had come in that amount of time. I decided to check outside first, just to see if Freddy was there. I run to my bedroom door and before I open it, I shake on my flashlight. I opened the door slightly and listened for any noise before I used my flashlight. All I heard was faint stomping so I shinned my light down the hall and saw Freddy walk away. Good thing he didn't make it to my door, I really don't want to have any more animatronics in my room; three is way more than enough. I also wanted to check to see if any Freddles were on my bed, just to make sure I could go to bed in peace. So I quietly jogged to the end of my bed and shook my flashlight again; pointing it at my bed. I found two of them sitting on the bed but they soon noticed the light and scurried off; back under the bed. I stayed at my bed and listened to any sound that could be made. When I heard nothing, I stepped into bed and closed my eyes to sleep.

4AM:

I had been awake five minutes before but refused to step out of bed. I don't want to live these nightmares anymore. Almost every time I go back to bed during the night, all around me are big splotches of red paint... or at least that's what it looked like. Then I wake up and get even more scared because I have to keep searching for the things trying to kill me. It's like I'm in this nightmare for six hours straight; even when I go to sleep. When I finally decided to check around the room, I got out of bed and picked up my flashlight.

I went to go check the closet, just in case Foxy came back. I hesitantly made my way to the doors of the closet and shook on my flashlight; opening the doors and shinning it inside. But there was no Foxy; seems he just wanted to tease me and only come once during the night. I closed the doors slightly and stepped back. All of a sudden, my flashlight shut off; even when it was still charged up. I frantically looked around the room, trying to see what did that. That's when my eyes landed on the familiar figure I saw in the last nightmare, the tall, slim creature that was in the walk-in closet. Remembering what happened last time with it and the flashlight, I didn't dare to shake it on. I just stared at the shadowlike figure and it seemed to me that it stared right back, I really couldn't tell because it was dark. All of a sudden their eyes glowed white and I shield my eyes. Then I started to hear my music box song, meaning I plugged my ears to block the noise. I've had enough of this.

"Who are you?" I shouted at it, "What do you want from me?"

I couldn't breathe from how frightened I was. I felt like I was going to pass out again, but just ended up crashing to the floor; curling up into a ball. I started to cry, really not wanting to be here anymore.

"Please... help..."

Then I felt it rub my back.

5AM:

I couldn't understand what the thing was doing but I didn't move an inch, afraid that it would attack. It continued to rub my back, it started to actually feel comforting, but I didn't go to sleep. I really want to know who this is. I know it's not an animatronic because they're big and bulky and the mysterious creature was skinny. I could only think of one suspect about who it was, so I went with my gut and finally spoke.

"Puppet? Is that you?" I asked quietly.

It stopped rubbing me and moved me to face it. I could only still see the shadow but I saw it look down to my hand, the one that had the flashlight in it. I held it up and shook it, creating some noise, but didn't shine it in the figure's face. Instead I used the glow stick-like shine to lightly glow so I could see. I held it out in front of me and I could start to see the creature. He had a black body with two white buttons on his chest. Moving the glow upwards I saw the face. I was correct, only there was no colour at all; he was just black and white.

Puppet then reached behind him and pulled out a shiny, brown and gold box. He opened the top and it started to play a song... my song. I took the box and examined it. It looked like it was from an older time, before I was born, and it had gold swirls going all around the top and sides. The inside was soft and there was a tiny version of Puppet twirling in the middle, as if he was dancing to the music. I looked at the bottom of the box and found the turn dial to wind it up but also found something else... it was my name but it was the nickname that Mike gave to me, Sammy. I turned the music box right-side up and kept it open, looking up to Puppet. Part of me knew what he was waiting for so I smiled slightly and said,

"Thank you."

He tilted his head at me and stood up. He pulled me up from the floor and took the music box out of my hands and started to lead me towards my bed. Puppet placed the box on the bedside table and helped me into bed. With the music still playing, I immediately fell asleep. I only had one thought repeating in my mind for a bit...

Why is he helping me?
