Murder - Sequel To Motivation

Chapter 5 - Mark's First Night

*So, this is where the script from the Random Encounters Musicals come in. However, it will not be exact. I am going to paraphrase it to make it sound more natural, plus, I will add more lines to fit with the story.*

Mark parked the car in the empty parking lot of Freddy's. He checked his watch. 11:58. Just in time. He didn't know much about Freddy's, but the job was open, and he had just quit his old job at an engineering plant.

Mark stepped into the office. It was dark, with a fan running on the desk. Matt saw him walk in through the hole in the wall, so he called him up. Mark answered it.

"Uh, hello? Hello?" Matt asked. "Hi, I'm Phone Guy. It's what we here at Freddy's call me. It's nice to meet you. Uh... just leaving a few quick words, Freddy's friends have a tendency to activate at night. Don't be afraid though, they just want to say hi."

 "That's crazy." Mark mumbled under his breath.

Meanwhile, the animitronics we activating. Chica woke up first. "Bonnie, Freddy! Wake up!" She told them.

"Midnight already?" Asked Freddy.

"Time to play!" Added Bonnie.

"Hey, I heard they hired a new guy!" Freddy told them.

"It must be his first day, then!" Bonnie said, going out to the dining hall.

Mark checked the camera in the corner of the office. "Alright, let's see what the cameras do..." They all seemed to work. Mark went back to the computer. "Let's check out you guys." Then Freddy twitched. "Wait. Did... did one of them just move?"

Mark put the laptop down. "That's stupid. Look, they're standing still." He told himself. Then Bonnie stared directly at the camera. "Except for that one... could it be?" His eyes widened. "Bonnie's looking at me!" Then the camera cut out. Bonnie had broken it.

"Bonnie!" Scolded Chica.

"Oops. Sorry." Bonnie put it back up, causing it to jump back to life. But Bonnie was right in Mark's face, jumpscaring him.

"Wait, what's that sound?" Asked Bonnie.

"I think it's screaming." Guessed Chica.

"Let's say hi, he seems a bit jumpy!" Bonnie decided.

Mark randomly pressed buttons on the keyboard. "How do these cameras change?!" He yelled. When he got to the right camera, he could see Freddy, Chica, and Bonnie coming down the hallway towards the office. "They're coming here! They're gonna eat me!" He shouted.

Behind the wall, Matt face palmed. You are the dumbest night guard I've ever hired. He thought. At least it's entertaining.

"Or what if they stuff me inside a Freddy suit?!" He yelled. Matt hit his head on the desk. Seriously? They are so small!

Mark ran through the emergency checklist. "Seal the doors.... hit the lights..." As he said each step, he performed the action.

Freddy popped up in the window. "Hey, new guy! Are you alright?" He asked.

"Stay away! Leave me alone!" He yelled.

"Don't be scared! It's only me!" Freddy told him.

"Maybe we should leave him a note!" Chica suggested. Bonnie took a red crayon and hastily scribbled, "It's me!" on the paper, drawing a terrible, and almost scary picture of Freddy, sliding it under the door. Mark picked it up and screamed.

"Oh no! He sounds like he's in trouble!" Chica said, running off to Pirate's cove. "Foxy? Are you there?" She asked. Foxy poked his head out. "The new guy is trapped inside the office!" She said. She lead Foxy to the office, where Foxy tried to break open the door, but he fell over.

Mark hid behind the chair. "They're breaking down the door!"

"He sounds so scared!" Chica said. Foxy crawled up in the vent. Freddy popped up in the window again.

"Hold on, Foxy's coming to get you!" He yelled. Then Mark heard the sounds.

"Is that something in the vent?" He looked through the vent, only to pause for a second. "Why does it smell like blood and mucus?"

"That's how we normally smell!" Bonnie said.

"Hey!" Freddy added, kind of insulted.

Mark rooted through the boxes in the corner, looking for a disguise to trick Foxy. Meanwhile, Chica went to go check the kitchen, as Freddy thought the camera might be down. Mark had created a paper Foxy mask, in white and pink. Don't blink... don't breathe... don't move... please, leave Foxy. He thought to himself.

When Foxy burst through the vent, the first thing he saw was a pink version of himself standing there. He got closer and started caressing the pink thing's face. Matt leaned in closer. I think Foxy is in love with him. Matt thought in disbelief. Then he leaned back. What is up with this Mark guy?

Suddenly, there was a crash, as the kitchen camera feed cut out. "Oops! Sorry Freddy! The kitchen camera's dead! Now..." Chica said, embarrassed. While Foxy was distracted, Mark took off the mask and shoved him into the vent again, sealing them this time.

"What's he doing?" Asked Freddy.

"He's sealing the air vents!" Bonnie said.

Freddy popped up in the window. "New guy, don't! You need air!" He shouted. Mark hopped back up, feeling a little dizzy. "Wow, I'm feeling kind of loopy, but at least I'm not-" Then he hallucinated a monster in front of him, causing him to fall back onto the ground. Matt, at this rate was banging his head against the desk like a machine.

Suddenly, and alarm started to ring. "Oh no!" Chica yelled. "New guy forgot to wind the music box!"

Mark ran over to the computer. "What the heck do I need a music box for?" He asked himself.

"To keep the Puppet sleeping!" Suddenly, the Puppet dropped from the ceiling, dangled by strings. Mark screamed.

"New guy's using too much power!" One of the animitronics yelled.

"New guy, open the door! You're gonna blow a fuse!" Yelled Bonnie. Mark was huddled under the desk, throwing papers at the Puppet.

"Get thing thing away from me!" He cried. Then the lights shut off, Mark snapping and screaming.

"Oh! He must be scared of the dark!" Said Freddy.

"Maybe he'll cheer up if you sing him your special song!" Chica suggested. The animitronics snuck inside the room, to see Mark huddled under the desk, crying. "I wanna go home!"

Then, there was music. "Hi, there, I'm Freddy! Wanna come and play? I think you're special, in your own way! I'd love to sing a song with you, it's my favorite thing to do, cuz I love you through and through!" Freddy sang.

"Your singing sucks!" Mark shouted.

"Wow, tough crowd." Bonnie said to himself.

"It's not working! Come on, everybody! Sing along!" Freddy said. "Come play with Freddy!" Then Bonnie joined in. "Play the night away!" Then Chica joined in. "All Freddy's friends have come here to say," Then Foxy joined in, singing various pirate noises rather than actual words. "We'd love to sing a song with you, it's our favorite thing to to, cuz we love you through and through!" As they neared in for a hug, they were cut off by a hand on Mark's shoulder. Mark looked up to see a man in a purple hoodie.

"Purple guy!" He shouted.

Then the lights turned on. The man took his hood down to reveal a normal guy, smiling. "Hey! I'm A.J!"

"Are you here to kill me?" Mark asked.

"No... I'm here for the morning shift." He said.

"Morning shift?" Mark looked up at the computer. "It's six am. It's six am! I lived!" Mark ran forward and hugged A.J, who patted his back awkwardly.

"Yep, you sure did. By the way, how are you getting so many hours? You're scheduled four more nights this week!" He said.

"What?"
