Intern {Five Nights at Freddy's Fanfiction}

7) ...is complete lies.

The chime reverberated through the entire building, so loud that it hurt my ears. I jumped at the sudden sound and sighed as I realized it wasn't dangerous. Mike seemed to be a bit startled by it too, but a wave of relief crossed his face.

"Saved by the bell." I muttered bitterly, grabbing my set of headphones from my pocket and slipping them around my neck. Mike smirked and nodded before disappearing into the right hall. I wasn't afraid for his safety...seeing as though the animatronics weren't allowed to walk around in the morning.

My shoes squeaked silently against the tiled floor as I trotted down the hallway. I figured Mike would ditch me seeing as soon as he could, seeing as though I'd do the same to him. Instead of taking the right hallway like him I decided I'd take the left. After all, risk taker is my middle name.

I yawned and stretched, exhaustion finally starting to kick in. Part of me didn't want to drive home but then I remembered my fingers. I grumbled in frustration and slipped on my headphones to drown out my ever growing hatred of my dad. He'd been the problem from the start.

He'd been the one to urge me to get a degree in business like him so I could take over his empire when he died. My little brother and older sister got to do what they wanted to do but not me. Oh no. I was destined to work everyday, all day, managing people and commandeering his nationwide moving business. But to do that I needed "real experience" as he had said. Not just sitting around on my lazy ass. That meant working as an intern at....this hell hole...for free.

My angry thoughts were immediately disbanded as a malicious stench filled my nose. I gagged and whimpered, covering my nose in disgust. What was that smell, and why hasn't I smelt it when me and Randy had come down this hall before?

I followed my nose, which lead me to a room a tad bigger than the office. Inside of it there were many face plates and parts for the animatronics laying around. To be honest...they looked real. Almost...too real. Using my phone as a flashlight I took a quick look into the room.

Nothing really caught my attention except for a slump of clothing on the floor. Curious, I stepped closer to the item and picked it up. The texture was slick and the color a deep, dark, almost navy blue. I recognized the item as a windbreaker jacket with the words 'Security' embroidered in white over the heart. Underneath the jacket was an old cap that resembled the one that Mike had been wearing earlier, except for the fact it had a few black stains on it. Speaking of which...so did the jacket.

"What are you doing back here?" a firm voice commanded. I jumped and squeaked, dropping the garments back onto the floor. I swallowed and sighed as I realized who the voice belonged to.

"Uhm...I'm sorry Randy but I smelt something bad back here. It's like somebody died. I was just curious." I smiled sheeply, turning around to meet his stern eyes. Surprisingly they were light and airy...as if I had told him a joke.

"No problem." he said simply, "Your shift is over...but if you want to keep the jacket and hat you're welcome to." I nodded and blushed with embarrasment before taking my new uniform and leaving down the hall. Still...I found it kind of odd how Randy hadn't said a word about my hand.

I walked by the stage to see Bonnie watching with his barren eyes. I gulped and headed for the door, slipping some Fall Out Boy into my earbuds to silence the dread growing in my stomach. I took one look behind me to find Randy watching me intently, as if I were a thief of some sort. I left and closed the door behind me with only one thought running through my head. Something was really off about Randy.

A/N:

So...Randy is still hiding something. I wonder what kind of discoveries Ellie will make? Also...why is Mike so aloof...and uninvolved? Sorry for the short chappies. Comment and vote for more!
