       "Alright talking voice, I'm back," I said, "I never did hear if you had a name at all. Do you have one?"

       "Yes, I do," the manly voice said.

       "What is your name?"

       "Handy Man. That is what everyone whom has ever worked with me has called me."

       "Okay, that doesn't suit you very well. I will call you-" I had to think a minute of a good name for it. "How about Peter?"

       "Hello, my name is Peter. Hey, that doesn't sound too bad after all," he responded with glee.

       "Okay Peter, what do I have to do tonight."

       "Today, one of the animatronics has malfunctioned and was therefore taken to the maintenance room. Two of our other workers tried to get there today, but they had their shoulders bitten off by Be Leave."

       "Oooohhhhhkkaaaaayyy," I responded in disgust and fear (fear stronger than disgust by ninety-nine percent).

       "There is still a bit of a mess to clean up, but our cleaning crew can take care of that in the morning." Unintentionally, that made me fear the animatronics more than I was the night before. I took the flashlight conveniently placed next to the vent of Be Leave's room.

       As I crawled through the vent, I saw where the door was since it was dimly lit.

       "You are now in the Be Leave Gallery. She cannot see you but will listen for your footsteps. I suggest you move as quickly as possible through here." After walking quickly, low to the ground, I heard music to my right. Assuming that was Be Leave, I stopped. The noise became quieter and quieter until I couldn't hear it anymore. I started moving again and got half-way to the door before I had to stop. I suddenly jumped when I heard:

       "It appears you are taking a while to get to the maintenance room. Please proceed as quickly as possible." I continued about one quarter more until I found bones, torn-up flesh, and blood all over the floor in front of me. I did my best to walk over all of it quietly and carefully. I heard the music louder than before, so I stopped and waited. as I waited in fear, more fear seeped into me as a silhouette danced by in front of me. After a lot of walking, I finally made it to the maintenance room.

       "You are now in the maintenance room. Funtime Fabrice is your patient. He is very sensitive to being touched in the wrong spot, so be careful." Like that helped me, I thought to myself. "Push the button at his foot first." I looked carefully for a button and found a very small one. I had to take my pencil out of my pants pocket to push it (I always kept a pencil on me just in case).

       "Great job. Now push the button on his chest." I looked carefully and found it, and, again, I had to use my pencil to push it. Doing something correctly scared me, for when I pushed the button I heard a sudden whoosh and saw the suit open as if it would kill me, yet it didn't.

       "Amazing! Now, pull the lever on either of the two hand puppets' chests to disable the suit for now. Once that is done, your job here is done." I noticed the hand puppets weren't on Funtime Fabrice's hands. I looked all over the suits, and as soon as I saw them and shone a flashlight over them, they dissapeared behind Funtime Fabrice. I was, however, able to notice levers on both of them. One was on an arm, and the other was on a leg. I saw the puppet with the arm lever. As it appeared, I quickly tried to pull the lever, but I wasn't fast enough. I looked to the right to find the other lever on the leg. I quickly reached for that, and everything stopped moving. My heart rushed in fear and relief at one time.

       "Great job. That concludes your duties for the night. Please crawl back through the Be Leave Gallery, and be on your way home." I could tell he had cheered up a lot more from the last visit to now. I carefully crawled through the vent behind me, turned on my flashlight and ears, and listened. I didn't hear anything, so I started walking a little faster. I see the door ahead as I hear:

       "There must be someone in my room," the strange voice said. I stopped immediately, my heart pounding on my ribs, waiting to jump out. I still didn't hear anything, so I kept going. The door was even closer.

       "Surely you're not here to take me to the scooping room," she said with a hint of fear. I could identify the voice as Be Leave. I kept going. Click clack. Click clack. Click clack.

      "Oh, it must have been a mere mouse." I was relieved to hear her say that as I crawled up to the door, opened it, and left.

       I ended up in the room with her and Funtime Foxy. The reflection of the glass showed something had moved outside. It was an animatronic that appeared very muscular and looked like a dark, dark green, enlarged, metallic bunny with human teeth. It sent just enough chills through my nerves to cause every little hair on my arms to shoot up.

       "Uhh, Peter?" I asked, shivering in fear and low temperatures (lower than I was used to anyways).

       "How may I help you?"

       "What animatronic was that just now walking by this room?"

       "Scanning databases." It took him a few seconds before he said, "It is not in my databases." That moment when fear had done me in is the moment everything faded into white, yet again.

       "You are tense about this location, I can tell. Tell me. What causes your tensity?" the voice said. There was a short pause. "I realize you have many questions you want answered, but all the answers shall come in time. One answer, though, I can tell you now is this: I am the Goddess Farore, the Goddess of Courage." Now that I realized to whom I was talking, a strange and powerful energy snapped into my heart and spread like fire in a forest on a windy day. Everything faded back to normal. I could finally find a way out of it and still check on the other doors...
