[BEING REWRITTEN]A Malfunction? (Bonnie x Reader)

Chapter 1: First Impressions

Key:
Y/n = your name
Y/d/n = your dad's name

Oh my god. You're driving to your father's workplace so you can finally see what he and a bunch of other people have been busting their butts off trying to do. It's something for a family restaurant called Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria. They are currently making one of the animatronics that performs on stage...well sort of. To be precise they're testing and playing around with it since they've got cutting-edge technology and are trying to see what they can achieve – which is kind of scary. What might they accidentally create? You wonder which robot is being made since there are four that you know of: Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie Bunny, Chica Chicken, and Foxy the pirate fox. Your dad really wanted to keep the majority of this a surprise.

~~~~~~~~~~

You finally arrive at your destination and park up amongst the other cars, getting all excited. Oh, what will you see? Quickly chucking a warm, fluffy jumper on and getting your small bag, you jump out of the car and make your way to the front entrance, gazing at the giant building towering over you. You push the two glass doors open and step inside; the smell of oil and metal instantly hits you in the face. You push past the awful stench – semi-used to it – and move further into the building, nudging past the multiple people walking around, searching for your old man.

"Y/n!!!!"

And there he is.

"Hey, dad!" you shout.

"How's my little girl?"

You giggle. "I've been great! How about you?"

"If I'm being honest – tired, but it has been fun working on our robot." He turns to walk. "Which you get to see!"

You follow him through a couple of doors and entrances – each with something different behind them. All the rooms you go through are filled with people working on multiple robotic pieces: eyes, appendages, wiring and stuff. It's quite fascinating to see, especially when you can see the starting plan next to the finished result. So many different and complex items are built and designed so precisely, then when put together make something amazing – usually.

~~~~~~~~~~

You think about the person who decided to make these animatronic mascots with the newest and fanciest machinery there is to offer. Sure it would ensure that the models will be capable of a lot of things and will most likely pay off in the future but just all the problems that might arise – since the tech hasn't really been used or even tested for that matter. Malfunctions, unexpected results and such, which probably won't be able to be fixed like regular issues. Maybe it was all worth it – every struggle and bump.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Y/d/n! There you are!" someone calls out.

A young man hastily walks up to your father holding a black file and some sort of blueprints under his arm. He looks much cleaner when compared to all the other people you saw, who were covered in oil splats, dirt and such; this man is spotless and actually looks quite good.

"What's the matter?" your dad replies.

"I wanted to know if anyone has some sort of idea for the role this thing is gonna have."

"Oh, we don't need to worry about that now! We don't even have the voice ready."

The man slowly nods – seemingly deep in thought – when his eyes finally land on you. He looks back at your dad with a partially confused but excited expression.

"Who might this be, y/d/n?" He half smiles.

"Ah, this is my wonderful daughter, y/n." Your dad scruffs up your hair.

You give him a polite smile and he sticks out his free hand to shake yours. You oblige, fixing the mess your dad made on your head with your other hand.

"Pleasure to meet you y/n, the name's Desmond Steel."

"Feelings mutual, Mr. Steel," you reply.

He tells you to simply call him Des all while still holding the handshake – not actually shaking – just holding the position, which you merely ignore.

"I'm going to be showing her the robot today," your dad says.

"You haven't shown her yet?" Des lets go of your hand.

"That would remove the 'wow' factor for when she actually came here."

They both chuckle and Des turns to you.

"Would you be interested in seeing some of the cool tech we got for it later on?" He motions to the area you just came from.

"Uh, I don't see why not."

He smiles. "Cool! I would love to show you it all. You'll be able to see all your dad's handy work."

Your dad just laughs, knowing that he never really showed you any of his projects – no matter how much you nagged him.

"Ah yes, you get to see all the things you almost destroyed as a kid." He laughs hysterically.

~~~~~~~~~~

You elbow him in the side. Of course, he had to say something embarrassing as needed by dad code. The sad thing is that it's true. When you were a kid you always got upset when he never let you see whatever it was he was working on, so to get back at him you would sneak into his office and take something – which always lead to it getting damaged since you had no idea how to handle it. He never got angry though. In actuality, he thought it was funny.

~~~~~~~~~

You all end up giggling like high school girls.

"Ha ha, oh, anyway Des it was nice talking to you. Y/n and I will be in the main area," your dad says through chuckles.

"Of course. And I look forward to seeing you later on." Des nods in your direction.

You politely smile and start to walk away with your dad to continue on your path. That was... interesting.

~~~~~~~~~

What was Des's job? He seems to be out of place, but maybe he is a background worker for designing or something. It didn't matter – it wasn't your business. Some of you just wants to know more about him for future reference. Something about him seems unnatural or at least different from what you would expect from any other human, but your dad didn't seem any different around Des so maybe you were just being silly. You were never the type to be so judgemental like this on a first meet-up with someone but... Just... You don't know. You push all these foreign thoughts away with this animatronic you are going to be meeting soon, thinking that you will learn more about this Des through time.

~~~~~~~~~

You fill your empty mind with how advanced this robot is going to be. Can it think for itself? Can it display different emotions? Can it move smoothly? How close is this thing to a human? Even though there is practically no point in wondering about all these things, you have fun thinking about them. So many different pictures pop into your head and you smile unconsciously, which you don't notice until your dad laughs and shakes his head. You try to conceal yourself but the little kid that everyone has in them takes over so you smile all the way to the animatronic that could change life as you know it.

Hello again! I hope you liked the chapter - I know it's kind of short ;-;. Let me know what you think and the next chapter should be out sometime next week.
