Notes:
Papa Bear in action...
New plot lines...
An animatronic walked alone through the dark tunnels, bypassing trash and mountains of garbage, helplessly creaking with broken limbs.
Poor Chika, who miraculously managed to survive after a breakdown that one of her best friends arranged for her, sadly wandered between black bags and a broken pile of construction debris.
The poor chicken had only one thought in her head: what happened to her best friend, Freddy?
This animatronic has never behaved like this before.
What could have gone wrong?
The chicken leaned against an old beam with a protruding rebar and began to think about why her friend suddenly began to behave in this way.
She only remembered how she was in her room and rehearsing her performance, and how suddenly she received an unknown signal that a lonely child was wandering around the complex and that it was necessary to grab him.
Chika remembered how her body began to behave very strangely.
Despite the prohibitions, she went to look for this child.
Not even to look for it, but to try to capture it.
The chicken remembered how something inside her had changed.
She became avidly drawn to the search for food.
No, the chicken used to like to have a snack with a couple of slices of fresh pizza, for which she usually flew from the mechanics, but this time it was different.
Chika remembered how she, like an obsessive, was drawn to the search for pizza, no matter where the smell came from.
She didn't even disdain to look for pizza in garbage bags, although she wouldn't have approached them before in her life.
And what could we say about a lonely child.
Even chasing the little boy, Chika was sure that if he hadn't miraculously escaped from them then, the chicken would have torn him apart for sure, and would have greedily devoured all the insides.
Chika was terrified of herself.
Poor kid.
He must be so scared.
What kind of trouble did he get into?
And more importantly, what is Freddy doing in this whole story?
The chicken only remembered how her friend suddenly came up to her from behind, covered with scratches, dirt, and bites, and how he knocked out a lonely guitarist with some kind of grin in one blow.
And then there was darkness, a system reboot, and an extremely painful awakening.
And then a terrible torment fell on her body.
She might be a robot, but even she could feel pain.
Chika remembered how the heavy press pressed her to the floor, breaking her beautiful slender body into pieces.
Then, when the press pulled away and she tried to get out, she faced the bright burning eyes of her friend, who kicked her in the face with all his strength, from which the chicken lost its beak and the ability to speak.
And then the second part of the press squeezed the animatronic's body so that her eyes practically popped out of their sockets.
And in the end, already all broken, the poor chicken fell inside the garbage chute like an unnecessary pile of junk.
If it wasn't for the brave boy, Chika would have died on this pile of garbage.
But what happened to Freddy anyway?
He had never behaved like this before.
Even when Bonnie was taken out of service for unknown reasons, even then the lead singer of the group did not show signs of aggression.
Although Chika remembered that time: their friend rabbit, who played drums so beautifully, and in between shows, spent time in his bowling alley.
Their friend was always joyful and cheerful, despite his fatigue.
Chika suddenly remembered seeing her friends together once. Freddy and Bonnie were arguing furiously about something back then.
Freddy tried to tell Bonnie something important, but the rabbit just waved him off, saying that he was fine.
And then, at one point, Bonnie disappeared.
Monty was put in his place.
Chika then tried to find out from the mechanics what happened to Bonnie, but they just waved her off, saying that it was none of her business.
That day, the chicken decided to visit Freddy, but did not find him in his room.
Oddly enough, Freddy was found near the location of the "Race with Roxy".
And the bear looked quite strange.
It even seemed to the chicken then that his eyes were glowing purple instead of blue.
Freddy, then, as the wound-up repeated: "This will never happen again! This will never happen again! It will never happen again!"
However, as soon as Chick called out to him, Freddy immediately came to his senses.
He was smiling again, and his eyes were glowing blue.
Freddy then happily waved to the chicken, and then said that he was going to the workshop to clean himself.
Chika thought it was very strange, but she didn't attach any importance to it at the time.
And now here's what's happening.
Their friends are probably just as broken somewhere right now.
A lonely child got lost in a shopping mall.
The poor boy probably needs help, and the chicken is cooling off here.
Deciding that there was nothing to feel sorry for herself anymore, Chika resolutely headed towards the exit from the landfill.
The way was not close, and even through these catacombs.
Who puts mountains of garbage under a shopping mall at all?
Why won't all this garbage be safely removed from here?
As soon as Chika reached the wooden planks that serve as a bridge over strange abysses, steps were heard ahead of her.
Someone was definitely slowly heading here.
The chicken, just in case, hid behind the nearest mountain with garbage.
Someone appeared out of the darkness.
Despite the darkness, the chicken managed to make out this stranger.
It was a strange-looking rabbit.
Her entire body was sewn from various pieces of fabric.
That's just in places this very fabric was torn, and it can be seen that with large claws.
There were remnants of some lilac fabric hanging from the neck of this rabbit, and the rabbit itself was limping on both legs.
Chika was very surprised: the legs of this rabbit were also all cut up, and covered with fresh blood, from which she moved with great difficulty, limping first on one leg, then on the other.
Chika decided to watch this strange rabbit from the side.
The chicken hid and began to listen.
Unexpectedly, this rabbit came close enough to the edge of a small abyss, and then took something out of her bosom.
This something was a strange button, which rabbit immediately pressed.
"COME OUT MY CUTE DOLLS... IT'S TIME FOR US ALL TO PLAY TOGETHER..."
As soon as the rabbit said this, long black hands came out of the depths.
And then strange-looking robots began to come out into the light.
Judging by their appearance, they were security robots, but they looked strange.
All their faces were painted in a terrifying grimace, and they themselves were black and terribly dirty.
All as one, they began to get out of the pit, and roll out somewhere deep, following this rabbit.
"LET'S PLAY... THERE'S A KID HIDING IN THIS BUILDING!.. FIND HIM FOR ME!.. BRING HIM TO ME! .. DESTROY ANYONE WHO GETS IN YOUR WAY!.. HA-HA-HA-HA"
And then the whole gang, rabbit at the head of this army of robots, headed up to the mall.
Chika, realizing that she needed to hurry: the child, wherever he was now, was in danger.
Without wasting a minute, Chika, limping herself, went up the metal stairs after the robots, then to run into the nearest corner, and then by detours to go in search of the child.
She prayed for only one thing, that the boy would be able to find a place to hide.
To keep the poor little boy safe.
EXCEPT THE POOR LITTLE BOY WASN'T OKAY!
The unfortunate child, ironically, was caught between two fires.
He himself is currently being held tightly to his metal chest by a lunar animatronic, and at this time an anthropomorphic bear, angry to the very endoskeleton, is waiting for them both from below.
Freddy glared at the teacher with wild fury.
More recently, the lead singer of the band was glad that the child could meet with Sundrop or Moondrop, since they could take care of Gregory while Freddy was busy.
However, so much has happened in the last couple of hours that Freddy can't trust anyone anymore.
Freddy just wanted to protect his baby, and he disappeared into the garbage chute in a panic.
Then the soloist of the group decided to sing a lullaby using his voice and speakers located throughout the building.
He hoped that all this would calm his little Superstar and lead him to him.
While he was singing, he was simultaneously looking for the boy through the cameras.
For a long time he could not find anything, until finally Gregory appeared in the room on one of the cameras.
Without stopping singing, Freddy headed there.
He walked as fast as he could.
However, when he finally got there, a terrible picture awaited him.
Gregory was not in the room, but there was his shirt: torn and with traces of blood.
And what could we say about the blood itself: the room was full of it - on the walls, on the floor, there were fresh traces of blood left by long claws, and mixed with some scraps of cloth.
Freddy was in a panic at that moment: if he had a real heart, it would have stopped.
And then, in the center of the room, Freddy saw the owner of these claws – MONTY.
The alligator somehow miraculously managed to survive and get here, albeit in a badly mangled form.
Had Monty managed to get to Gregory and hurt him after all?
Freddy was seized with unbridled rage.
Anger and malice literally boiled inside him, and then burst out in a deafening roar, which could probably be heard throughout the Megapizzaplex.
With frenzy, Freddy attacked his old friend, wanting to finish what he had started with him.
The bear was beside himself with pain and anger, from which he simply tore his half-dead comrade to pieces.
Monty, or rather, what was left of him, did not have a single chance against the brutalized animatronics.
Unfortunately for the broken alligator, Freddy didn't know that his friend had managed to regain his sanity by means of their last fight, and that all this blood belonged not to a child, but to a strange rabbit.
Monty saved the boy, even if he did not see at first who he was fighting with, until he accidentally tore off the lilac fabric from the opponent, a bow, after which she became visible.
And then badly crippled, this lady rabbit ran away, and then Freddy appeared.
The angry bear dealt the last blow to his friend, turning him into an iron mess.
Freddy was furious that his friends wanted to harm his baby.
If they haven't already, because Gregory wasn't in the room.
Does this mean that the boy managed to escape?
Perhaps he is somewhere nearby now– wounded and in need of Papa Bear's protection more than ever.
Without wasting another minute, Freddy ran out of the room.
He furiously began to inspect the cameras in search of his baby, but they did not always help. In some locations it was too dark to see anything through the lens.
But Freddy wasn't going to stop.
Growling through clenched teeth, he was ready to find Gregory at any cost, even if he had to run around the whole building.
He will definitely find his bear cub.
But there was one problem – his battery could run out and prevent him from carrying out his plans.
The mechanics put it on a limited power – this is a very prudent function when it comes to animatronics.
However, no one knows that Freddy has long known how to remove this restriction.
It was against the rules, but from that night on, Freddy didn't care about the rules.
Mentally logging into his system, he found the right program, and regained the full power of his battery.
Now Freddy could work without a break and recharge for at least several days in a row.
Looking around again, Freddy ran through the floors, hoping to figure out where his baby might be.
Running around floor by floor, Freddy became angrier and angrier.
His eyes were blazing, his teeth were gritting, his fists were clenched to the limit.
He was angry.
But most of all he was scared.
He was so worried about his little bear.
The baby had so many internal injuries that it even hurts Freddy to remember what he saw when he X-rayed the boy.
However, he remembered everything: extensive fused fractures of the ribs, subcostal formations on the hip and left humerus, linear fractures of the skull with different levels of fusion.
The boy was used as a punching bag.
It was about years of systematic beatings.
And Freddy was more hurt by the fact that all this was done to Gregory by his parents.
However, now everything will be different!
Freddy will definitely find his teddy bear and make sure that no one else will ever hurt him. NO ONE EVER!
Running past the main stage, Freddy managed to hear a quiet singing coming from the location of the "Race with Roxy".
Without hesitation, the animatronic headed there.
Freddy had all his nerves on edge, from which, when a bot with maps blocked his way, he just tore off his head with a frenzy.
Going even deeper, Freddy found the source of the singing.
Moondrop, or educator, hung almost from the ceiling on strange dangling tentacles.
But he had something interesting in his hands.
It was GREGORY, wrapped in a blue cloth.
Freddy was furious: his eyes were burning with hellfire.
He had to pick up his baby.
Only with him, or rather, in him, Gregory will be safe.
Gritting his teeth, Freddy turned directly to the teacher.
"MOONDROP... WHAT A SURPRISE TO MEET A TEACHER OUTSIDE YOUR KINDERGARTEN... WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"
The lunar animatronic only hissed at the uninvited guest, telling him to be quiet, otherwise he could wake up the poor child.
Moondrop made circular movements with his fingers, and then pointed his fingers at his head.
Freddy knew what this meant: the teacher told him to talk on their internal communication, which animatronics usually use to communicate with each other when there are strangers nearby.
"Freddy Fazbear... what a nice meeting... what brought the lead singer of the band at such a late hour to this semi-closed zone?.. Isn't it time for you to rest now, before the next concert?"
Moondrop was cheekily staring at the animatronic from his height.
No matter how scary Freddy seemed, Moondrop believed that he could withstand his angry gaze.
"I don't have time to talk, Moon. You have one that belongs to me, and I demand that you come down and voluntarily hand it over to me."
At these words, Freddy came even closer to the place where Moondrop was, looking for an opportunity to take the boy away from him.
Suddenly, the place directly above the teacher blinked profusely, plunging this place into complete impenetrable darkness, and then, after a couple of seconds, everything returned to normal.
However, the teacher was not there.
He disappeared.
Freddy frantically shook his head and body in search of the lunar animatronics.
Moondrop's voice echoed in his head.
"What are you talking about, Freddy?.. I have nothing that could belong to you... just a cute little boy, but alas, he is already ours, with his brother…So, I'm sorry."
Freddy was ready to explode with anger.
"THIS IS MY BABY!.. You have no right to award it to yourself!.. You and your brother don't know what this child has been through… He has a lot of internal injuries… He was hated by his own parents… He lived alone on the street for a long time… All I want is for this child to be safe… I want to give him all the love and care that he has not received in life... and I WILL KILL ANYONE WHO GETS IN MY WAY!.. So give it back to me, IMMEDIATELY, otherwise you will regret it very much!"
Freddy's thoughts were accompanied by growls.
The bear tried to track down the educator, actively checking every nearby object with his eyes.
"How interesting, Freddy… Very interesting… but also sad... and also, very funny… You know, our goals are practically the same."
Freddy froze.
He managed to see movement between the nearest boxes.
Slowly, the soloist headed there.
"Match?.. What are you talking about?"
Slowly, with every step, Freddy approached the shelter.
"I'm talking about, you, like us, want to protect the boy... so why don't we unite?.. together we will be able to give this child much more and better than ordinary parents of a boy could… Imagine: a boy could live in a kindergarten, away from people's eyes, with a full set of food, toys, and all the best… My brother and I could look after the child around the clock, while you will periodically spend time at concerts. And in the breaks, when there is time, you can come to us and see the child… What do you say, Freddy?"
Barely had the moon animatronic finished speaking when a clawed paw appeared in front of him and firmly grabbed him by the neck.
Fortunately, he hid the sleeping child, but this situation did not make it any easier for him.
Freddy pulled the struggling smaller animatronic to his face, practically touching their foreheads.
"It sounds very tempting Moondrop… I could consider your offer, but there are a couple of
nuances ... WHERE ARE THE GUARANTEES THAT NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO MY
BABY UNDER YOUR SUPERVISION?.. or another question: HOW WILL YOUR BROTHER
REACT TO THIS ACTION?"
Moondrop was dangling in panic in the animatronic's iron grip.
He was afraid to claim any rights to the child. He is the wrong word and his head will be torn off.
"Can you believe me, Fazbear... don't you know that we are excellent caretakers of children... nothing will happen to us with your baby... and as for my brother, you don't have to worry: he and I have long wanted to take care of such a child, and we will do it with all our common soul... I swear"
Moondrop hoped that this would convince Papa Bear to let him go, but the iron grip was still firmly gripping his neck.
Freddy's eyes glowed with a fierce red light, but they were directed somewhere to the side.
Freddy seemed to be thinking.
"Well, Moon, I accept your offer… The kindergarten really has everything you need for Gregory... he will really feel good and safe there... and he will always be under supervision… But keep IN MIND, IF I SUSPECT THAT YOU OR YOUR BROTHER WILL BECOME A THREAT TO
MY LITTLE BEAR AT ONE MOMENT, I WILL PERSONALLY TEAR YOU TO PIECES, LIKE THE OTHERS, AND TEAR YOUR ENTIRE KINDERGARTEN TO SHREDS… DON'T YOU DARE CROSS MY PATH, OTHERWISE YOU'LL BOTH REGRET IT!"
Moondrop was finally released, and he fell to the floor.
The bear was still hanging over him.
Rubbing his neck, Moon asked cautiously.
"The others?.. What do you mean?.. Could you really...?"
"YES, I COULD... they were all a threat to my baby and I had to get rid of them urgently… So know that if you stand between me and MY child, THEN YOU WILL NOT LIVE!.. Now take me to my baby... I want to pick him up immediately… We have something to discuss with him..."
The lunar animatronic was forced to obey, no matter how much he wanted to.
After walking a little way, the tutor led Freddy to the racing cars standing nearby.
Gregory was sleeping in one of them.
Freddy's heart fluttered with excitement from meeting his cub.
Coming closer, Freddy gently picked up the boy in his arms.
Looking at this sleeping miracle for a minute, Freddy noticed a strange object in the boy's mouth.
The soloist of the group gave the teacher an ambiguous look, and then he pulled this thing out of the child's mouth, tearing the straps on the back of his head in one second.
This abrupt action immediately woke up the child.
Or almost.
He opened his eyes and began to move actively, but he was still in a dream.
It looks like he was having a nightmare: he desperately resisted.
Freddy tried to hold the boy, but he was afraid to hurt him.
Then Moondrop came to the rescue.
With a deft movement of his hand, he took out one moon candy from under his cap and put it in the boy's mouth.
The child immediately swallowed the candy, and after a minute passed out again in the bear's arms.
Freddy sighed calmly.
At least the tutor helped him here.
Freddy carefully pulled the sleeping child to him, and squeezed him in a gentle but very affectionate embrace.
Then Freddy lowered his big head and lovingly rubbed his muzzle against the boy's face.
Having once again enjoyed the spectacle of a sleeping child, Freddy quietly opened his stomach and carefully placed the sleeping child there so that he could sleep comfortably, and then just as quietly closed.
Freddy rubbed his chest compartment with pleasure, feeling how his beloved bear cub was sleeping in it quietly and calmly, IN COMPLETE SAFETY.
Sighing contentedly again, Freddy turned to Moondrop, who was still standing next to him.
"Gregory will stay with me for a while, and then, when there is time, I will bring him to kindergarten… In the meantime, go there and prepare everything for our arrival… I'll take care of my baby for now..."
Moondrop nodded in agreement, and after turning around, was forced to leave the territory of the race tracks.
Soon the teacher disappeared behind the construction equipment, leaving Papa Bear alone with his little bear.
Notes:
There is a contrast in this chapter between Moondrop and Freddy's relationship to the child.
Moondrop behaves like a yandere nanny, but Freddy, exactly like Papa Bear.
