The Injury

Chapter 13

No one's pov

Darkness was all Bryan could see, Silence was all he could hear and it felt like he was in the air, But he wasn't falling just floating, like a balloon. He remember what happend when he fell into the portal. Of course he did, it was the only thing he could think about. His mind didn't want to rest at all. He tried to move, nothing. Not even able to lift a finger

"Did I die?.... Is this death?" "Bryan..." The voice was faint, Bryan couldn't make out who was talking. "My name.... Who is talking?" "Can you hear me?" "I can.. I... can you hear me?" "You need to stay strong, hold on" "I'm... Trying" Bryan tried to look around, only to realise the reason it was dark was because his eyes were closed, he could barely open them. He saw flashing lights of blue and red, then it became dark again. He tried opening them again and this time he was a laying on a bed but it was moving, is someone moving him? It's dark again, it feels dark for a long time. Beeping, he hears beeping noises. They are loud, he tries to tell someone to turn them off but he can't.

The memory of the bite came to him again, of the boys that carried and laughed at him. The ones who, killed him? That depends is he dead? He can't feel anything, maybe not dead but dying? He doesn't know. Bryan mentally sighs, first he find out he is adopted, then that they can't find his parents, then he falls into the portal and... Relive a memory? It couldn't not be a memory he remember it so clearly and the hit of deja vu was so big. "So that's how... I lost my memories... Make sense now" was it starting to get cold? Wait he started to feel something? Bryan tries to open his eyes, he was able to do a little and he saw he was in a bed again. What kind he doesn't know but the beeping sound won't stop, is it going faster now? Bryan is starting to breathe quicker. He didn't want to die, where is he? Whats going to happen too him? The beeping noise is hurting his head, wait hurting? He heard mumled voices and shadows surround him.

"He's having an attack!" "We need to calm him down!" Doctors and nurses surrounded him, Bryan was trying to lift himself up but failed. The pain hit him now and he let out a horrifying scream. The pain it hurt so much. His head felt like it split in two, well he guess it kind of did. His eyes are fully open and yet he sees nothing. The light above him is so blinding, then it stops. He's back in the darkness, in the silence. "What's happening to me?" He got no answer back.

It have been 5 hours after Bryan got taken to the hospital, It was quiet in the pizzeria, Ballora had screamed and yelled at Molten on why they were there and yelled towards the cameras to yell at Springtrap. This went on untill her power became incredibly low and she only had energy to get to her place, with Lefty and Rs. Foxy almost forcing her there. No one knew what to say, Nedd had powered off because of the awkwardness so it was only Lefty, Molten and Rs Foxy. "So... That was an experience" "You can say that again mate, jeez this is so.... *sighs*.... I really hope Bryan makes it" Foxy sits down on one of the chairs by the stage.

"So... What did happen? We know Springtrap wanted us there, well maybe wanted Bryan there for a reason but... Why?" Lefty says "...." Molten haven't spoken a word after they all got back. Not even when Ballora yelled at him. He knows now what this was about, he knows why Springtrap wanted Bryan there and he knew that memory. Not personally but he have heard the story about how Chris Afton supposedly died. He sighs and walks away from the other two, he needs to be alone.

"Bryan" a voice "Bryyan" a voice but who? "Come on bud, you need to wake up" Bryan can't remember too who the voice belongs to. It's smooth and calm, not that dark or light but normal? "You can do it, you will survive. You already survived this once" Bryan takes a deep breath, but still can't wake up.

Five months later

Everyone was worried, Rs Foxy and Lefty had decided to tell the others the truth of what happend. Baby did not take it well and Ballora constantly asked Lefty if there had been any news about Bryan, the hospital had promised to call them on the work phone whether it's about if Bryan survived or.... If he didn't and so far no call. Baby couldn't believe her ears. Bryan was... He's her... There's no way he is not, That bite was way to specific. The animatronics had closed the pizzeria for the time being, no one felt like they could pretend to be happy for the kids.

Ballora was sitting in the somewhat office staring at the phone, her boy was hurt and she can't even go to be by his side. "Ballora?..." In the doorway stood SpringBonnie, his voice was quiet and you could hear he haven't used his voice box in a while "How... How are you doing today?" "No call" He looks at the phone and sighs. "I can't belive it, Chris was... Right here" He sat down next to her "And we didn't even notice!.... If only I had... Well If only Afton didn't delete the contacts from the hospital so people couldn't track him when he.... Killed kids" there was silence after that. No one said anything for like 25 minutes untill Ballora said "Should... We tell Michael?" AI. Afton looks at her in chock and she continues "I know he... Hates himself for what he did.... But should we tell him his brother have been alive all this time? Should we tell him of what Springtrap did to him now?" "... He could visit him" Ballora nods "*sigh"* I can talk to him, if you want. I'm suppose to go back to Jon's place today anyway" Ballora nods again, Ai. Afton kisses her cheek and stand up. "I need to get ready.... Call Jon's place and ask for me if you hear any news alright?" "Yeah I will, bye and... Good luck" He nods and leaves the building.

Michael didn't know why but he had this feeling of something bad has happend, he always feel like something bad is happening but this was different. He was working on Freddy when he heard a knock on his door. "Yeah?" he says not looking towards the door as it opens, by the footsteps he thinks it's either Chica or Bonnie. "Hey Michael" He stops, turns around and sees the copy of his father. "What do you want?" "We need.... To talk" His voice was serious but calm. Michael knows this is the 'less evil' part of his father but that doesn't make it better. "About what?" "Alot of things... Mostly what happend five months ago and about Bryan" "and why should I care what happend to Bryan?" ".... Let's sit down"

Michael's head was in his hands, Ai. Afton told him everything he knew, everything the others had told him. He couldn't believe it.... His brother isn't dead... He didn't kill him. But now he's still in the danger of dying, reliving the bite over again and get the injury. "Your mother... Have been sitting by the phone, waiting for the hospital to call but we haven't gotten anything...do you think you could... Check on him?" that surprised Michael, will he check on Bryan, Chris? however you want to call him. He still blame himself for what he did, can he do it?" I don't know if I can..." "You don't have to do it for us, I know how you feel about your father and how you blame yourself" Ai. Afton stood up and walked towards the door "Your mother and I just felt like you should know... You never killed your brother" Those words, somehow that lifted a few thing off Michael's chest, he didn't kill his brother, he wasn't responsible for his baby brother's death. ".... Thank you" the Ai nods and walks out of the room.

Mrs. Huts walked into Bryan's room, she did the usual check up on the water and blood bags, his heart monitor and everything else that was nessesary. She's not sure he's going to make it this time. He lost a lot of blood and if he does survival it's a very very little chance of him being able to move all of his limbs, He might even become paralyzed. She turns to look at Bryan and fixed the covers for him. "Oh Bryan... I'm sorry this keeps happening to you. Your parents visits you every week you know? They are really worried... I really hope you will make it though, if anyone can it's you. You've already done it once" She smiles softly and finishes her work "Alright everything seems to be working fine. I will check up on you tomorrow, you have a good night rest ok?" Not really expecting an answer she walks out of the room.

He have gotten used to the beeping noice, somehow. It's not as annoying as it was before. What was annoying though is that he can't move, his body is just too heavy. Bryan have been thinking about the incident and he does not like where his mind is going. He remember what AI. Afton and Ballora had told him, how their son had died. But that would mean that he was an Afton, that he and Springtrap were related. Bryan wanted to believe it was just a coincidence but in the back of his mind he knows better. He felt like crying but no actual tears came. He wanted to move his body, to be able to hug himself and curl up into a ball and cry. Why is this happening to him? Bryan can feel his energy being really weak at some point, weaker then he already is. "... Chris?" "Another voice? " "Hello Chris, don----you worry I'm going----- alright? You will be just ----" The voice sounded like it had something caught in the back of the throat, kind of dark but not much. Plus Bryan couldn't hear all the words "I won't let you ---, not this time. We ---- -- happy again, once I get us alll back to ------" Bryan could feel the chills go down his back, that voice.. "And this time Michael won't ---- ---!!... Don't worry ---" Bryan could feel something on his head, something cold and hard. It did not feel safe at all and hurt a little, But Bryan's body was mostly numb. He still couldn't pin point the voice, Then he could feel his left arm being lift up a tiny bit and then it's like he's hugging something small and soft.

"I'll put you back together, son"
