!Gun Violence warning!

(Zachary/Nightguard's perspective)

Night 3. Woah, I was doing well!

"Tonight, I will end this." I muttered to myself, pulling out of my pocket, a dangerous weapon that cost thousands of pounds. I listened to the Phone Dude speak. 

"Alright man, so, you see in that cupboard over at the back of the room?" Phone Dude enquired.

"Yeah?" I replied.

"You gotta answer the questions. It is some sort of paper thing from the government. Anyway, talk to you tomorrow." Phone Dude explained.

"Ok, thanks. Talk to you tomorrow." I sighed, thankful that I could get on with my job. I walked over to the cupboard that Phone Dude had talked about. Inside, was a dusty, old, piece of paper. I had to answer the questions that where on it. Easy enough, right?

I began to read the paper. It said;

"To Katie's Fun Friendly Family Restaurant,

Hello. We have been informed that there has been an accident at this restaurant. Please can a member of staff or the manager answer these questions.

1. Do the animatronics move much?" That was a very "tough" question. I was able to circle either "yes" or "no." I chose "yes."

"2. Where in the restaurant did the accident take place?" That was simple. Of course I am going to know! I was the whole reason it happened. I answered, "in the basement." The next question said,

"3. Do you have a nightguard?" I burst out laughing, then remembered that the animatronics where here as well! I quickly checked the cameras, then sighed of relief to find Foxlee still in the library, Wolfy on the stage and Katie in the dining area. The next question said;

"4. Are the kids scared of the animatronics?" They weren't particularly scared, so I put down, "not really."

"5. What did the parents say once they found out about the accident?" This question was hard. I replied with, "this restaurant is worst." Finally, that was all the questions answered! The last sentence said;

"Thank you for your time." I turned the page over to find that someone had wrote "You Did This" in red paint. I put the paper back in the cupboard, then sat at my desk and watched the cameras.

(Katie's perspective)

I didn't hear much movement in the office. What was he up to? I signalled Foxlee and Wolfy to come. 

"Shall we try our plan again?" I questioned.

"Yeah." Wolfy replied, then went to the vents. A few moments later, once I heard the vent rumble, a scream came from Wolfy. It didn't sound like a jump scare scream. Was it? A few heartbeats later, there was a gun shot. I looked at Foxlee. This wasn't good. Foxlee ran to the vents, and I ran to the door. I went inside the office, to find Zachary leaning over Wolfy's animatronic suit, with a gun in his hand. He looked like he was going insane or something. 

"What have you done?!" I yelped, running at Zachary. Before I could scream in his face, he held the gun at my face. He was cheating! This wasn't fair. Obviously, we are already dead, so, since Zachary shot Wolfy, he hasn't died again. All that has happened is that his suit has malfunctioned. I ran over to Wolfy, picked him up, then ran over to Crystal's stage. Foxlee followed me. It was a bit crap that there was no room for fixing us if we break or something. Thank goodness Crystal had the tools and skills to fix items and us animatronics. 

"What's the problem?" Crystal asked.

"Did you not just hear that gun shot?!" I cried.

"Huh? Oh yeah! Oh my goodness, what happened to Wolfy!?" Crystal yelped.

"It was Zachary! He shot Wolfy!" Foxlee screeched.

"Ah! Ok! You guys leave, I will fix him up, I promise." Crystal smiled. Foxlee and I walked away. Crystal had two hours to fix Wolfy. Would she be able to fix him in time?
