I AM STILL HERE

Night one, welcome to Fazbears Fright!

"Sam, tell me why we're doing this again?"

A girl with black hair pulled into a long pony tail, wearing a purple shirt with a white skull on the chest and black pants with heavy combat boots, huffed and rolled her lavender eyes in annoyance. "That was the tenth time you've asked me that Tucker."

"Yeah yeah, summer job and all that jazz, but why here? You couldn't find anything else?" Asked a dark skinned boy with green colored shades and dressed in traffic light colors of a yellow long sleeve shirt with a gear on it, green pants and brown boots with a red hat to complete the look.

Sam shrugged, "No one else is hiring right now, and I know the guys who own this place. They've been scouting for artifacts from some restaurant chain that got closed down from unsolved missing children cases and employee deaths."

The second male and final person of the trio, who had raven black hair, sky blue eyes and was wearing a black T-shirt with a green ghost (the logo of the band they're in), well worn jeans and white shoes, covered his mouth trying to hold in his snickering and failing.

"What's the matter Tuck? Scared of a few ghosts?"

"Danny, your boyfriend's a ghost," Tucker pointed out drily, "And we interact with ghosts all the time, a few bedsheets and old masks are not gonna bother me."

They walked through Amity's amusement park and finally found the haunted house attraction in the back of the park by the pier.

An unpleasant feeling curled in Danny's gut as they walked closer, the hair at the back of his neck standing on end. They enter the building and look around at the decrepitude of the place that was supposed to mimic the old restaurants. Arcade games lined a corner and rows of tables in the middle of the room with party hats on them lined up as if waiting for a birthday party. The chills intensify as Danny gazed at all the old posters and drawings, showing different animatronics.

He spied a drawing of five kids, three facing away and one focused intently on a golden bear on stage. He focused on the bear and began feeling a mix of emotions: fear, nostalgia, and strange sense of longing.

Sam noticed that Danny wasn't with them anymore and turned around, "Danny? I know this place is interesting and all, but we got work to do. You can explore later."

Danny slowly turned and walked away, eyes not leaving the drawing until he rounded a corner.

They walked by a large window that revealed the office; a long desk under the window, a couple of chairs, a filing cabinet against the back wall that looked too damaged to open, and a monitor bolted to a wall on the right side of the desk. When they went in they also see a flip up maintenance panel, a row of plushies, a metal fan and a phone. The whole building was lit with an eerie green light, making it hard to discern the color of the walls and floor.

Danny spotted a box full of masks and other assorted junk in the corner by the door and went over to it just as the phone rang and answered itself.

"Hey dudes and dudette, are you there yet?"

"We're here Leo, what's up?" Sam replied.

"The boss just wants me to, like, thank you guys for helping us out, oh! And congrats on the new summer job by the way. Now I know it doesn't look like much right now, but I promise it'll get better! We found som-some great new relics over the weekend, and we're tracking a new lead, right now!"

"That's great Leo, hope you find something," Sam said halfway sincere.

"Hey thanks Sam! Now let me tell you about what's new real quick so you can get to work. Like, the attraction opens in, like, a week, so we have to make sure everything works, and nothing catches on fire! Uhm when the place opens, people will come in at the opposite side of the building and work their way towards you. Yeah, you've officially become part of the attraction. You'll be starring as...the Security Guards! Isn't that awesome?"
