RXQ's P.O.V


Being surrounded by these people, by Afton's followers; I didn't belong here. I never have. And yet I endeavor by allowing myself to fall into William's open arms, all just to gain what I've been promised all along. I had to witness the true nature of William, how he operates, and how those he's taken under his wing function. I had to understand an ideology I had never been indoctrinated into before. The people I worked with had to understand as well, along with their loyalty. Something we strive to prove each day.

"And here I thought she was Afton's most trusted follower, yet she shows her true colors," said Ennard. "Especially the color red, which I can make your own oil bleed with!" followed the voice of his other voice. "Enough Ennard," said Afton shifting his eyes over to Baby, as he calmly sat in his chair without making a move. "Is Nightmare's report correct?" There was a brief silence from Baby, as we all waited for her response. Something unusual for her status, considering she was always quick to answer her father's demands or questions. 

"Yes, it is."

"Then would you like to explain yourself?" continued Afton, as his usual tone reeked his office as we stood prominently to endure the man we followed. "A sense of hesitation came over me to not end the life of my brother. Whether it was from our past relations or personal affection, I admit I was not capable in that moment to kill him," she answered. "I will gladly approve of whatever punishment you have fit for me." "Give her what she deserves, she's no use to you over such a fatal mistake," said Ennard as Afton shifted his eyes over to him from his words. "I expected more from you Elizabeth. Your action to not kill Michael has been noted though such a mistake can be forgiven, even at such a high cost for our enemies to have because of it. Let me warn you though that such a mistake can only be forgiven so many times, don't waste it so easily," said Afton shifted his eyes back at Baby. "Of course father, it won't happen again. I promise you," responded Baby, all while Ennard's expression changed to Afton's decision. "You're allowing no punishment on her? For something so detrimental that could've fractured our enemy?" asked Ennard. "Perhaps we should be the one's to enact her punishment for her sins, and I would do the honor by being the one responsible for that task," said Ennard's other voice. "There will be no further resentment, my decision is final. Are we clear Ennard?" responded Afton. "Of course. Just making a point is all," responded Ennard bowing his head down. "Nightmare, has the damage done by our uninvited visitors been cleaned and sorted?" asked Afton shifting his eyes over at him. "It has as requested, and the units have taken to their positions once again. Everything is back on schedule," responded Nightmare. "Very good," responded Afton shifting his eyes to me and Golden Freddy's direction. "I take it the both of you had your enjoyment." "It's what we needed for a while, though not sure I can say the same for Golden Freddy," I said with my stern manner as I turned to Golden Freddy. "We did what was necessary," she stated. "Hmm. I see... " said Afton disregarding Golden Freddy's response. "What you experienced today was only a taste of the coming scenarios you'll be in. Both of you will be back in deployment in your upcoming missions, which I know is a gift to hear. And to bestow the news to greater lengths Elizabeth and Nightmare will be on watch for this shift, so enjoy the time you have left. We are approaching the coming days where this world will be reformed for the better." That's all you heard from Afton these days, this talk of reformation and changing the world. It would only be a couple day until that change would finally occur, if that wasn't prevented that is.

"I will alert all of you of your next mission when the times comes, as for now all of you are dismissed. I myself have business to attend to," continued Afton. "As you command," said Nightmare bowing his head down. Ennard opened the door as we all walked out of it and made our way to the main area, all proceeding to our own separate ways. Already I could see Nightmare Bonnie and Nightmare Freddy guarding the front entrance, as their eyes had already locked into me. Sometimes I wondered what went on in their heads, though I expect not much since they didn't have a mind of their own. The same could for go for the rest of the NightmarePhantoms, and the Twisted Animatronics; I honestly don't know what they even do half the time. Usually they're either on patrol, on watch, or they roam around the pizzeria aimlessly but that's about it. They were only breed for annihilation so I guess that's what keeps them busy. I made my way over to one of the tables they have in the middle of this room, moving the chair out to sit in and relax. As I seated m self and scooted the chair forward I could see Nightmare Bonnie and Nightmare Freddy's head pointed at me, though that didn't last long as they finally looked straight ahead now. I still wasn't used to that, not after how many times I had been stared by these beings or whatever the hell you could title them as. I got comfortable and sat still, thinking about what to do with my time. There was little to do here, except just practice my powers or train the others, or even chat with some of them. I turned to the sound of a door opening, as I could see Baby entering the maintenance room now who most likely was off for repairs or to sharpen her claw. I only knew because Ennard had told me of what she does with her spare time, and he only knows because he has a tendency to spy on her which he also mentioned several times.
