My Dear Protege (A FNAF Fanfic)

Chapter 23 New Misfortune

Vanessa yawned and sat up, drooling a little and a few strands of her hair in her mouth. She smacked her mouth a bit to make sure her mouth wasn't dry. Glitchtrap was in a chair across from her, reading one of the books the hotel had left in the drawers. She rubbed her eyes and got up, slowly going to the bathroom and turning on the sink. She ran her hands under the warm water and splashed a small handful into her face, cleaning her face and waking her body up. Glitchtrap watched, closing his book and setting it aside.

"Good morning, Vanny." He greeted. She mumbled something along the lines of a good morning and sat on the bed. Her eyes were flickering, closing and struggling to stay open.

"Come on, you can sleep in the car." He said, putting an arm around her.

"Alright....My...Lord.." She replied tiredly, slowly falling back asleep in his arms. He cracked a smile and stifled a laugh.

"Come on, up up up!" He said, shaking her. She groaned, cranky. He suddenly picked her up, startling her and causing her to yell in surprise.

"Glitchtrap! Put me down!" She laughed, kicking her legs and flailing about. Glitchtrap let out a taunting laugh and dropped her on the bed.

"You ass!" She laughed again, "Okay, I'm up."

Glitchtrap pet her head lightly, "Good, I'll get the car started." He went out of the room. Vanessa smiled and felt her cheeks flush up. He really made her happy.

Vanessa grabbed her things and made her way downstairs to the lobby, running out to the van. Glitchtrap was reading the book, he had snatched it from the hotel. Vanessa slid open the side door to the back of the van and hopped in.

"Ready to go?"

"Yep!"

The car drove off, Vanessa had fallen back asleep in her pile of blankets and pillows. Glitchtrap smiled as he saw her in the rearview mirror, taking off.

Vanessa soon woke to the smell of gas and cigarettes. She sat up and saw the back of Glitchtrap leaned against the glass of the sliding door, smoke emitting off to the side of him. She rubbed the sleep from her eyes and got a closer look of the outside world, seeing they were filling gas into the van. She looked into the front and saw a large mall. Her eyes widened, the newest development in Fazbear Entertainment. Freddy Fazbear's Pizza Plex. She smiled and opened the sliding door, setting Glitchtrap off as he had been against it.

"My Lord!" She whispered, "Look!" She pointed at the mall, he smirked and dropped his cigarette, stomping it out.

"I see you've noticed the newest establishment I have my eyes on." He said, a bit of venom dripping from his words.

"Oh? What are we gonna do?"

"You'll see, for now just get your breakfast." He said, handing her a donut in a white and lightly greased bag. She took it and sat back, eating it and keeping her eyes on the mall. Her eyes trailed back to Glitchtrap, her eyes growing large as she noticed his little bunny tail. It curled like a slightly misshapen Hershey kiss, colors of cream and dull yellow. She got close to it and reached out.

Glitchtrap tensed up, feeling something flick at his tail. Somehow he felt it, like it was actually a part of his body. He looked back and saw Vanessa playing with it like it was a spring door stopper. She noticed him staring and smiled sheepishly.

"Sorry!" She said, hiding her hands behind her back. Glitchtrap sighed, "Please, don't do that." He froze a bit, feeling it wiggle away the feeling of her touch.

"Yes, My Lord." She said shyly. He reached and pulled out the gas pump from the car, putting it back into its place. He closed the sliding door and got back into the driver's seat. Starting the car up, he started to drive across the road, straight to the mall. Vanessa, almost audibly, squealed in excitement like a little child. He parked into a space and got into the back with her.

"Here's the plan, my little protege." He said, taking her hands, "We're gonna bust into the mall, but we need to figure out it's weak points." Why was he still going along with the blame of his brother? If he was truly innocent why was he supposedly owning up to the name of a murderous monster. Was he just giving in, letting his brother win by the fact no one else would listen to the middle child? He wasn't at fault so why was he letting his sociopathic mind do these things? He just had to give in, he had no other choice at this point.

"Yes, My Lord."

"Just go in and look around. Get some nice things maybe." He said, winking at her. She smiled and got out of the car. She slowed down once she got to the entrance, it was tall and looming over her like the Eiffel tower. Glitchtrap watched through her eyes, his ghostly figure following her like a guard dog. He stopped in place and paused, his gaze stuck on the stage area.

The usual main attraction, Freddy Fazbear. He was a creamy brown color, with a lighter shade along his muzzle, chest and stomach. He had fangs this time and markings of bright neon blue that acted as rock face paint. He had shoulder pads and a single earring on his left ear. His fingertips were designed with fingernails that matched his face paint. He sort of looked like an 80's style racoon.

There was Chica, she had a pale snow color unlike her usual yellow hue. She no longer looked like a duck at least. Her body had a pink coat that looked like a leotard on her body. Long, under-the-knee socks in the designed patterns of 80's backgrounds and styles. Her arms had bright green fingerless gloves that matched her triangle earrings. Spiked bracelets were over her wrists as well. Her face covered in the similar hot pink to her outfit to make markings of rock. Shoulder pads and a matching bow pinning up her hair. In her hands was a bass guitar.

On the same side of her was a fox like creature, with the colors it was most likely a wolf. She had a long crazy mane of hair, the end of it on the top of her head was dyed green and matched her keytar that was laid by her side. She had what seemed to be either shorts of a skirt that was red like her belly shirt. He only knew it was a girl based on her figure and mostly her chest. The shorts were belted with a black belt and spikes. Like Freddy she had ear piercings and like the other two she had face paintings. Long nails came from her fingers that were the same hue as her hair and instrument. She had arm coverings that went with her under-the-knee socks. Purple with black zebra stripes.

On Freddy's side was what looked to be an alligator. He was a deep green, yellow along his muzzle and stomach, up. He had star sunglasses covering his eyes. A red mohawk running along the middle of his head. Purple shoulder pads and a belt like the wolf. The belt holding pants that were coated in a pattern that looked like gator skin. He had a long lizard tail that was stripped yellow and green.

They were all shut off, sleeping whilst standing. He shook and went to them. The memories were flooding back again. Hacking away at the robots to set them free, ending in him getting springlocked. He did it on the same night he made the decision to end himself.

"Let's hope they aren't haunted either." He mumbled quietly.
