"Shut up, they'll hear you!"
Fluent speech surprised Tony enough to quiet him. Bonnie took his paw off of the guard's mouth and locked the door. The sound of two robots slamming into each other was heard outside the closet, and the rabbit giggled a bit. "Those idiots probably don't even realize you're in here."
Tony just looked at the rabbit blankly. 'Why isn't he stuffing me into a suit? Shouldn't I be dead by now?'
"First of all, did you leave either of the doors shut?" Bonnie leaned against the door and crossed his arms. He looked unconcerned as Freddy beat on the door, trying to get in. Tony slowly shook his head and the rabbit sighed in relief. "At least you have some common sense. If the power goes out, you're as good as dead."
Tony hesitantly opens his mouth, asking, "Uh, w-why did you save me..?" Bonnie's ears flail around a bit, not wanting to answer.
"Not even a thanks, eh? Just some questions, wanting to know why I saved your ass, huh? I can open this door and let them in, if you want."
The night guard shook his head quickly. "No, don't! I was just curious... You don't need to tell me. Thanks, man." After a pause, he adds, "So, what now?"
Bonnie shrugs and sits down in front of the door. "Now, we wait."
The two sat in awkward silence until the beating on the door ceased. Tony opened his mouth a couple times before shutting it, and the animatronic rabbit just stared into the distance. Neither quite knew what to say, until finally Bonnie said, "I'm not a guy, you know."
"What?"
"Well, you said 'Thanks, man.' I'm not a man, I'm a girl."
Tony blinked a few times. Everyone he'd known always referred to Bonnie as a 'him' since he'd been a kid. That, and the bunny was known for wearing a bowtie and playing guitar... Not that women couldn't, but he'd just never considered it. "I guess I just never really considered it. Sorry."
She nods. "It's okay, I just... Wanted someone to know. Everyone in the restaurant always calls me a guy, even though I'm bright purple and my name is literally 'Bonnie'."
"That makes sense. But wait, do you have..?"
The guard flinches as Bonnie holds a paw up, ready to slap him. "Okay, okay, bad question! Sorry!"
(A/N Yeah, Bonnie is genderbent. Sue me. A giant purple bunny with a girl's name shouldn't be forced to be a guy! Anyways, happy reading!)
