A Crying Child and A Serial Killer (A FNaF Fanfiction) (ON HOLD)

Chapter 1 | Finally Awake

The Crying Child's P.O.V.

I opened my eyes slowly, after experiencing countless nights of nightmares and hell-ish animatronics trying to keep away, especially Fredbear. I sat up, looking around the white room. 'It looks like a hospital room,' I thought.

Then I remembered the bite. It traumatized me for countless years. 'Wait, what year is this? Where's Michael? Where's dad?' Thoughts flooded my mind, thinking about when and where am I.

Suddenly, my thoughts were interrupted by a doctor coming inside the room. The doctor noticed me and looked slightly surprised. "Oh, you're awake," he said. "You were in a coma for 35 years, you somehow stayed the same age, your frontal lobe is gone because of a certain bite and caused by an unforgettable animatronic, Fredbear," he explained.

Fredbear. Just hearing that name gave me chills down my spine. 'Wait, 35 years? Wow, it took me THAT long to be awake, gosh, I didn't even age in my nightmares either,' I thought, slightly widening my eyes. "Wh-Where's my broth-ther? Wh-where's my d-dad?" I asked. 'After all these decades, I somehow still stutter,' I thought, one last time.

"Oh, your family, um, uh... they... they... they're missing. I don't know how, but your brother went missing a year and a half later after you were bitten. You're father, he went missing somewhere between 20-30 years ago. No one really knew where he was," the doctor explained.

I was shocked. I was the only family member left to be seen and exist. But he said dad went missing somewhere between 20-30 years ago, so it would be pointless trying to find him. As for my brother, he might be already dead, considering he was gone decades ago too.

"Oh, and, uh, also, I brought some newspapers for you incase you eventually wake up, just to make sure you catch up on what happened for the last 35 years," the doctor said, passing me a bunch of newspapers then left the room, leaving me dumbfounded. I started from the top, and started reading, top to bottom.

I finished reading all newspapers, looking astonished and speechless at the same time. It started with Elizabeth reported missing, until a new location called Fazbear's Fright.

I got out of bed, resisting the pain of standing up for a few seconds, then felt fine, although I felt a little slim. I opened the door, seeing a little hallway. It brought back memories when I saw some creepy and dark hallways in Fredbear's Family Diner.

The same doctor I saw an hour ago noticed you. "Oh, your up. Well, just in time, I brought a special person that was a specific night guard back in Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. He said he wanted to talk to you. Okay, Mr. Schmidt, time for you to say hi," the doctor called out to a person.

A person appeared that looks like he was in his 50's came up to me. He kneeled down to my height and said, "So, you're the last existing Afton family member, eh?" I nodded slowly and shyly. "Well, let me tell you something, kid. How about I bring you to Fazbear's Fright, it's just my 1st night. What do you say?" He asked.

I hesitated, but nodded slowly. "Okay. Let's get some rest first, hey doctor, can I bring the child with me at home?" Mr. Schmidt asked the doctor, which I assumed the man's name was.

"Absolutely, Mr. Schmidt. I don't want him to sleep in a hospital because of how long he's been there unconscious, so you can bring him to your place to make him rest there instead," the doctor responded. "Cool," Mr. Schmidt said as he walked away with me, holding me hand.

Me and Mr. Schmidt went out the hospital and headed home to his place.

"S-So if yo-u we-were a n-night guard at F-F-Freddy Fazb-bear's Piz-za, what was i-it like?" I asked him. "Dark, creepy, reminiscent, and ambient," the only light there is the office, he explained. "W-What do you m-mean, 'a-ambient?'" I asked him. "The animatronics move at night." He answered. I was in awe. "H-How??" I asked. "Whenever it's night time, they're automatically activated into something called Free Roaming Mode. When they see you, they will think that you're an endoskeleton without a suit, so they will scare you, almost giving a heart attack and forcefully stuff you inside a suit, the only stuff in your body that will see the light of day again are your eyes popped out, but luckily, I survived for 7 nights," he explained. I jaw-dropped. 'So I wasn't the only one, I guess it wasn't an imagination in my nightmare, they DO kill you," I thought. "They kill you because the 5 missing children are possessing the animatronics,trying to get revenge on the one that killed them, well, that's what I thought," he explained, it was somehow more accurate than what he said before. "Who was the one who killed them?" I asked curiously. "You'll know eventually," he answered. "What's your first name?" I asked. "Mike, but most people call me Michael, so I'm either known as Mike Schmidt or Michael Schmidt," he said. When he said 'Michael,' I became sad. He noticed me, and tried to comfort me by saying, "Hey, sorry for reminding you your brother, at least he's in a better place now."

"I know, but it wasn't your fault you said that, it was just... hard to bear whenever I hear someone say the name 'Michael,'" I reassured.

We made a conversation all the way, Mike slowly makes me feel more comfortable around him. He made me stop stuttering.

Once we reached the house of Mike, he opened the door for me and said, "Okay, kid. Make yourself at home," Mike said with a soft smile. I stepped inside and it was very simple and decent. The living room was old and a little rusty, so I assumed he lived here since he was younger, but it was still nice. I explored everywhere in his home and everything looked neat.

I found a spare room that doesn't look like it wasn't used for ages. "Seems like you found a spare room," Mike said, I got surprised by his sudden presence. "Geez, Mr. Mike. You almost gave me a heart attack..." I said, holding my hand to my chest. "It reminded me of my brother too..." I looked away sadly. "Sorry," Mike said, putting his hand at the back of his head.

"You stay in the living room and wait for me until I clean and arrange everything in his spare room, once I finish, go to sleep, I will too," he said, carrying me to the living room.

"Okay kid, I'm done, you can come now," Mike shouted from the spare room. I got up and walked towards Mike. "Okay, kid, look inside," he said, opening the door to my new room. I looked inside, and it looked amazing.

It was painted brown, blue, yellow, red, and golden. Your bed had a blue blanket and a yellow pillow. The cabinet had the Freddy Fazbear Collection Stuffed Toys.

I realized the colors of my new room represented the 5 animatronics. Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy, and... Fredbear.

"Also, uhm... I painted the room, too." Mike said. "Where'd you get the paint anyways?" I asked. "From the attic," he responded. "I thought you hated those animatronics?" I said. "I do, I just want to have a remembrance of the locations," Mr. Mike said. "Oh... okay," I replied. "Now, kid, I want you to sleep now so that means it's bedtime for you now," he said. You nodded. He carried me to my bed and tucked me in.

"Sleep tight, kiddo." He said, kissing my forehead. He walked out of the room and stopped at the front door. "Sweet dreams, kid." he said, closing the door.

I looked up, staring at the ceiling. "I wish I could see my family again." I said before turning off the lights and finally slept.
