The Animatronics

Those 4 words were what glued Sarah to the chair. Her eyes were wide with fear as she stared into the lifelessness ones of the animatronics. Behind the bear stood the blue bunny. It was now carrying a red guitar. The edges looked as sharp as the blade of a knife.

But there was 1 missing. The yellow chicken. It wasn't with the other 2 so where could it be? Sarah looked at the window behind her and screamed. She had found the chicken. There it was, staring at her through the other window. Its mouth was hanging open and it had a white bib with the words 'Let's Eat,' on it. Sarah took one guess at its meal.

She looked at the other 2 animatronics. They both wore a bow tie. The bear's was black to match the hat it was wearing. It was like a top hat but not really tall. About the height of Sarah's hand from top to bottom. In it's right hand it was carrying a microphone. Was that it's choice of weapon? What was it going to do? Scream in her ear. It seemed unlikely. But still, she wouldn't question it.

The bunny didn't have anything else apart from the guitar and bow tie. It's was red and it surprised Sarah that she hadn't seen it before. She suddenly realized the way it was holding the guitar. It was holding it like how you would expect someone to hold a bat. His left hand around the top and his right around the bottom on the side. How would it be used as a weapon though? Like an axe or a bat. It could be used both ways.

But this wasn't what Sarah should be thinking about right now. What she needed was a plan. And a good one at that. How was she supposed to keep animatronics away from her for...she looked at her watch for a split second, 4 and a half hours? It seemed unlikely that Sarah would succeed. Unlikely, but not impossible. She clung onto this. A possibility. The bear was starting to get wrestles. You could tell as it had started banging on the glass. Not a good sign. 

The chicken must've noticed as it asked, "Would you like something to eat? Freddy can show you to the dining room while I cook you some pizza. If you would like entertainment, the boys could play you a song. Bonnie great at the guitar." The chicken had a feminine voice so Sarah assumed it was a girl. Now she knew the genders and some names. The bear was Freddy and the bunny was Bonnie. 

"Yeah, what Chica said. Don't worry, you won't get bored." Said Freddy. OK. Well, now Sarah knew what to call them. But she doubted that fact would help her survive.

One of them spoke again. This time it was Bonnie speaking. 

"You know we can't kill you out here. Things might get...messy. It's safer to do it in there, where you are. Can't say you won't get hurt though." There was silence for a bit before he continued. "You know, you look young. Not as old as the others anyway. We'll play nice on your first night. We might even give you some tips. Look, you wanna survive and I want Freddy to stop BANGING ON THE GODDAMN GLASS!!! Come out and we both get what we want." Bonnie glared daggers into Freddy, making him stop. Bonnie was clearly annoyed. Freddy had been hitting the glass so hard it was shaking. It didn't look like it could've taken much more. Sarah looked at Bonnie and nodded. 

"Promise you won't hurt me," she said in a trembling voice. Bonnie nodded.

Sarah walked to the door and pushed the red button. She immediately walked out, remembering where they could kill her. When she was close enough, Bonnie held his guitar in his left hand by the top and wrapped his free arm around her.

Freddy grinned down at Sarah, springing tears to her eyes. She tried to blink them away but that just made them flow freely. She was terrified now. She didn't try to wipe the away, it was no use. They would just return. When they reached the main room Chica was already waiting for them. She raised an eye as they approached. 

"You didn't hurt her already did you?" She looked almost...disappointed. 

"No. She started crying as soon as I smiled at her." Replied Freddy.

They passed pirate cove and Sarah could've sworn she saw a pair of eyes staring at them as they passed. Freddy went to close the curtains fully. As he did so, he bent down and whispered something inaudible. Who could he be talking to?

Bonnie sat Sarah down at one of the tables and walked with Chica to the stage. After a few minutes Freddy joined them, making sure to pass right by the chair Sarah was sitting in. He patted her on the shoulder as he passed, a little too roughly for her liking. But she wasn't complaining.

On stage, Freddy was holding his microphone, Bonnie his guitar. Freddy was in the middle, with Bonnie to his right and Chica his left. He opened his mouth and they began their song.
