I know it's originally a phone call but please just go with it. Call me out on any typos too :)
"Dad, you aren't gonna believe it! I got a job!! Pretty much immediately too!"
"Really?? Where at?" You could hear him typing on the computer, so you figured he was he wanted to check out your new workplace. He may have been a little suspicious, but he was still the overprotective father you'd always known.
"Fazbear's Fright. It's basically a walkthrough haunted house," you state matter-of-factly. You hear a hum from the other line. He starts to ask questions, "Who's the boss?" "What do you do?" "When do you start?" You blanked.
Then you remember. You had been so busy preparing and taking to dad that you lost track of time. You rush over to the clock.
11:12pm.
Okay, good. I still have time to gather my things and get over there. It's only about a ten minute walk.
"Y/n? You there??" You snap out of your thoughts.
"Sorry dad, I got lost in thought for a sec."
"Okay, well, it's almost time for you to leave, so I'll let you go," he starts to say goodbye, but you miss him dearly. You want to see him again.
"Wait! Would you maybe wanna go out for lunch after my paycheck? It comes in Saturday," you hope he'd say yes, "I'll even pay. Think of it as a small 'thank you' for all your help over the past couple of years."
"Hmm, why not."
Yes! you mentally fist bumped the air.
"Alrighty, I'll let you sleep. I love you dad!"
"I love you too. Now get to work you hoodlum," he chuckles, then hangs up.
You quickly gather your things and put them into your (f/c) backpack. You packed two water bottles, a few (f/s), a flashlight, pepper spray- which your dad had insisted you carried at all times- and your inhaler. You weren't one to freak out much in high pressure situations, but you might need it.
As you get to the building, you receive a text. Oh, it's from Mike!
Boss Dude: wanted to let you know the keys behind the poster
Boss Dude: hook it to your keychain or something when you can. you don't get a spare
Wow, okay. You lift the poster beside the door to find a little pocket carved into the brick. Sneaky~ you grab the little shiny key from the indent and unlock the door.
As you step inside, cold air hits you, causing shivers to run down your body. You make sure to lock the door behind you before venturing through the building. There were old arcade machines, gift boxes, children's drawings, and some animatronic parts were set up on displays like mannequins.
You make it to your office, if you could call it that. It looked like it hadn't been cleaned since the Flintstones had worked here. You search for a broom, but none was found.
You sigh and grab your uniform, its royal purple the only inviting sight in this wretched place. You didn't remember there being a bathroom, so you decide to change in the office, putting your previous clothes in your backpack.
Checking the time, you notice it was 11:59, so you go ahead and insert the tape into its box. When you press play, it doesn't. You click it again, and it remains unphased. As your watch strikes 12, the tape plays. Thankful, you just sit in the office chair and listen. A guy with a sort of surfer accent starts talking.
"He-hey! Glad you came back for another night! I promise, it'll be a lot more interesting this time!"
"We found som-some great new relics over the weekend, and were out tracking down a new lead right now! So, uhh- let me just update you real quick, then you can get to work. Like, the attraction opens in like a week, so we have to make sure everything works, and nothing catches on fire!"
Uhhh...
"Uhm, when the place opens, people will come in at the opposite end of the building, and work their towards you, and pass you, and out the exit. Uh, yeah you've officially become part of the attraction. Uh, you'll be starring as... the Security Guard! So not only will you be monitoring the people on the camera as they pass through, you know, to make sure no one steals anything or, makes out at the corner, but you'll also be a part of the show! It'll make it feel, really authentic, I think."
Yeah, this guy's nuts.
"Uh, now let me tell you about what's new. We found another set of drawings, always nice, and a Foxy head! Which we think could be authentic! Then again, it might just be another crappy cosplay. And we found a desk fan, very old school, metal though, so watch the fingers! Uh, heh!"
"Uhm, right now the place is basically just, you know, flashing lights and spooky props. I honestly thought we'd have more by now, uh so if we don't have anything really cool by next week, we may have to suit you up in a furry suit, and make you walk around saying 'BOO!' hehe."
Uh, not happening.
"Uh, but you know like I said, were trying to track down, a good lead right now. Uh, some guy who helped design one of the buildings, said there was like, an extra room that got boarded up..? Or something like that. So! We're gonna take a peak, and see what we can find."
"Uh, for now just get comfortable with the new setup. You can check the security cameras over on your right, with a click of that blue button. Uh, you can toggle between the Hall cams and the Vent cams. Uh, then over on your far left, you can flip up your maintenance panel. You know, use this to reboot any systems that may go offline."
"Uh, in trying to make the place feel more vintage we have overdone it a bit! Heh heh. Some of this equipment is barely functional! Uh, I wasn't joking about the fire, that- that's a real risk."
"How lovely," you blurt out loud, not like anyone would hear you.
"Uhm, but the most important thing, you have to watch for, is the ventilation. Look, this place will give you the spooks man, and if you let that ventilation go offline, then you'll start seeing some craaazy stuff man, keep that air blowing! Ok, keep an eye on things, and we'll try to have something new for ya' tomorrow night. *click*"
"Welp, that was interesting..." You grab the tablet and shift through the rooms on the screen.

Thank you for reading the second chapter of my book. I'm actually trying to make some cover art and whatnot for the chapters so I don't have to use other people's stuff near as much. I'm working on each chapter ahead of time so it can be written and reviewed by the time I want to post it. As of now I'm actually almost done with chapter 5! So uh, see ya!
