"Hey Rachel, what's wrong with your leg?" Bon commented as he stopped to look back at me.

We had been walking down a long white hallway for the past five minutes after we had went through the secret door that Foxy could see from the Puppet's vision.

Our group had stopped in our tracks, looking back at me.

My leg had began to hurt like hell. Every time I took a step a flash of pain would run up my leg. I tried to make it as unnoticeable as possible but tears were starting to form in my eyes.

Foxy was in the front because he was the only one that could see if anything was hidden from view. He turned to look back at me wtih both of his inverted eyes. One amber and one pure red. One with a black iris, the other with a white one. 

Fred was beside him, holding Chika on his back. She hadn't woken up yet but we couldn't possibly leave her. Fred took the responsibility of holding her and refused to let anyone else take the job.

I bit my lip, averting my gaze from Bon who had stopped beside me, "Nothing's wrong..."

Bon narrowed his eyes, "Rachel, don't lie to me."

I shook my head, "I'm not."

Foxy looked at me, looking down my body to my right leg, "Rachel, one of your bones in your leg is split completely. I can see the fracture."

I flinched, looking at Foxy with shock.

He can see injuries too?

Bon sighed loudly, looking at me with deep concern in his purple eyes, "Why couldn't you just tell us? We can clearly see you're in pain, we want to help you."

I looked down at my feet, putting my weight on the leg that wasn't broken, "I didn't want to you guys to have to work harder than you already are. I'm fine, I prom..."

I gasped and my sentence was cut short by Bon's arms coming up under my shoulders and underneath my knees, lifting me into his arms bridal style. I could see his lips perk up in the slightest hint of a smirk as he looked down at me, his purple bangs falling into his face, "You'll be fine now. Don't complain, just go with it."

A blush slowly grew on my face and I quickly hid my face with the sleeve of my jacket.

I looked and saw as Foxy looked at us with a hint of jealousy in his eyes before turning to face the front once more, walking forward.

Conflicting emotions were running through my head.

My heart was beating as fast as it did when I kissed Foxy. 

Is it wrong for me to feel this way for both of them?

No, that wasn't a question. The answer is yes, it's wrong. 

I looked down the hallway, watching Foxy's back as we began to walk forward to follow him, my body swaying lightly in Bon's arms.

My eyes began to close against their will and I felt my head fall lightly against Bon's chest.

I could smell the scent of vanilla on him. It was completely different than the scent of Foxy. But it wasn't like it was a bad scent, it actually was really nice.

I sighed deeply as my thoughts began to churn into mush and I couldn't pick one from another., falling asleep.

**************

When I opened my eyes I was standing in a glass box surrounded my darkness.

 I quickly turned around, looking around at where I was. There was nothing beyond the glass walls around me and below my feet.

I breathed softly, my breath clouding the glass in front of me. 

I then heard a light chuckling coming from behind me and quickly turned to come face to face with the Puppet.

I nearly screamed, backing up so fast my back hit the glass behind me with a thud.

The Puppet placed his two hands against the glass above his head, leaning close to me so that the glass pane was the only thing separating the two of us.

A grin began to form on his face, revealing his shark like teeth, "Do you really think you can save them Rachel?" He chuckled, the idea seeming to be amusing in his mind. His hands curled into fists as he banged his right hand against the glass, causing large cracks to form.

I flinched, my eyes widening.

"They're my prisoners Rachel, they belong to me. I won't let you free them," The Puppet grinned as he brought his fist down again and the cracks in the glass grew larger, stretching to the bottom of the box.

My body was beginning to shake in fear as I watched the glass starting to break before me, watching as I was trapped in a box with no way out.

"But you know something Rachel..." This time the glass completely broke, shattering on impact as the Puppet brought his fist down once more. He grinned in triumph as he stepped into the broken glass box, pinning my arms above my head before I could even get my limbs to move. 

His grip on my wrists was shockingly cold, so cold I had to bite my lip to prevent myself from yelling out.

The Puppet chuckled softly once more as he leaned close to me, "You remind me a lot of Margo, but with more confidence and loyalty."

Even from how close he was to me I couldn't see his eyes.

His grip tightened on my wrists and I squirmed in discomfort.

"Become my wife Rachel and I'll spare you. I'll even let you have my prisoners and you can see them after today." The Puppet grinned, whispering his offer quietly into my ear.

My blood ran cold and an anger that I never felt before overwhelmed me, "I would never even consider marrying a monster that preys on other people." I snapped, glaring at the Puppet with the angriest look I could manage.

The Puppet seemed to find great amusement in this because he began to laugh like a madman, his grip on me disappearing so I fell back onto my feet, "I leave the option open for discussion if you change your mind Rachel.." Before I could move his hand suddenly wrapped around my neck, squeezing so hard that black spots began to appear in my eyes. I couldn't breathe at all and I desperately tried to get any air into my lungs.

The Puppet kept smiling as his other hand came to his face, "For now, I guess you'll sleep." He then used his hand to move his hair away from his face and a feeling of terror ran through my body.

His eyes were exactly like Foxy's cursed eye except he had two. They were wide and spilling black mist so heavy that it looked like it could swallow anything into darkness.

As soon as I saw his eyes, my own eyes turned dark and I passed out.

*************'

"Audrey! You need to wake up."

I suddenly burst awake, still in Bon's arms.

I looked around confused as my hand came to my neck.

It was just a dream.

I looked to see everyone else in front of Bon and I in front of a large wooden door.

Foxy looked at me and I flinched at the memory of my dream with the Puppet in it.

Foxy didn't seem to see the look I gave him though, "BB is behind this door, laying on the ground. I can see him with the Puppets vision."
