Foxy's pov
-----

After the lass had left that morning, she promised she'd be back later in the afternoon and watch us perform. To say the least, I was nervous. What if I mess it up? What if I accidentally hurt someone? What if...no, none of that will happen. It'll be fine.

I lent my back against the wall as I sat loosely cross legged next to the wooden mast. It was dark but not as dark as before in the Cove, the scenery and props gave the place...a little more life, not dead stone.

I placed down the crayon drawing in front of me, I had kept it safe while the place was put back to normal, I lifted one of the lose floorboards and tucked the paper underneath it. I 'smiled' before leaning back my head and shut down, ready for the manager to arrive.

-----

Not sure how long it was, but before long the manager entered the building, turning on the three on the stage first then came over to my cove and lowered me up. He set me to day mode, which hasn't been used in a long, long time. He turned and jumped off of the stage, turned and faced me. I stood up slowly and walked to the front of the stage, the curtains were wide open and showed the entire Cove.

The rest of the staff entered the building, greeting the manager as they walked to their stations.

I glanced over to the three on stage, Chica snuck a wink before standing in her normal place. I turned back to the manager in front of me, I looked down at him from the stage.

"Okay, Foxy's up along with Bonnie, Freddy and Chica..." He turned on the spot, looking around the main hall, counting what had to be done on his fingers.

"New night guard's coming tonight...uh...or was it tomorrow nigh-" he stopped as his phone rang, he escaped back to his office just as a few people walked through the door, marveling at the decorations that covered the place. I admit, the lass did a good job.

I stared over to them, most likely husband and wife, three children. The littlest with a 'Let's Eat at Freddy's!' Bib...hah...cute.
The oldest child at about the age of seven went straight to the three on stage along with the second oldest, the littlest child held her mummy's hand as they went to sit at a table, looked over at me.

I slowly followed her with my head and lifted my hand and waved hi to her. She giggled and tugged on her mum's sleeve, pointing at me. Her mum looked this way and gave a brief frown but smiled at her child as they ordered their food.

More and more people entered the building until the place was almost full. I started interacting with the children that came over. Freddy said some lines and pointed in my direction, indicating my lines as more kids came over.

"ARRR! That scallywag, Freddy be right, lads! Follow tha' rules an' we won't have any problems!"

"That's right kids! Don't forget to eat your vegetables so you can grow up and be big and strong like me!" Freddy laughed.

"But Freddy, all you eat it pizza all the time!" Chica pointed her wing at the bear and laughed.

"Now that's not true, Chica!"

"Aye! It be true kiddies! All he eats be pizza!" I pointed my hook over at him accusingly.

The kids laughed, I was having fun also. For the first time in ages in the light of day with kids. All went well until one little kid made his way up onto my stage, calling to his mummy and daddy to look.

"Mummy! Daddy! Look at me, I'm on the stage!" He shouted, getting their attention for a brief moment.

I started to panic at the fear of something similar happening again. I stepped back away from him, he was about to step forward but was grabbed by a pair of female hands with painted black and red nails. He squirmed away once the woman put him on the floor.
