Work Text:
It was fun, it was really fun! Even though i almost loosing my life multiple times, got bitten multiple times and running til i was out of breath. I don't regret it. Because on the journey, i meet someone special. Someone i would love to call him my dad.
I wanted to stay. Why can't he let me stay? Why did he let me go? Will he remember me?
It's scary being loved. Because life is complicated and all too often it throws you off balance by sending you the right person at the wrong time.
~_______________
"I've found him!"
Roxy’s voice booms over the the whole mall as she chases Gregory down, reaching her hand out to try and catch him, Running as fast as she could
Gregory gasped as he got yanked back, "Don't be scared." Roxy says opening her jaws wide and her other free hand was reaching for Gregory's throat,
Pulling out the fazblaster gun he shoot roxy in the eyes causing her to drop him, Roxy groan in pain as she covers her eyes, Gregory escaped but also got three strikes of blood streaming down his cheek.
The longer Gregory run the longer distance between him and Roxy is, but before he could catch his breath roxy screamed again sounding closer than he wanted her to
"I'M THE BEST"
Quickly ducking down behind a large bin Gregory began to held his breath, opening his fazwatch and call for Freddy, watching and scrolling through the cameras he got nervous as he can't find Roxy anywhere. Hearing lightly thumpings he try to calm down and call for Freddy again.
'Please be careful Gregory, i see roxy is very, very near you.'
Freddy message sent Chills up Gregory's spine. He knew his hide out is poop due to he is hiding BEHIND not INSIDE the large bin. Because Gregory was mad at himself, and not listening to roxy's footsteps, a certain wolf was behind him staring at him down.
"I bet I'M you're favorite!"
A sudden grab from behind Gregory screamed, struggling to grab his fazblaster when Roxy grab the hand that was trying to take out the toy gun,
"I bet you don't even have friends."
Roxy claws dig deep into Gregory's skin, Gregory cried out in pain, The high pitch scream plus Roxy's close hearing was not a combination as she throws Gregory to the other side of the room making Gregory puke out blood gripping his now bloody arm.
Gregory scoot closer to the wall behind him, Roxy began to walk towards him holding out her sharp claws and showing off her row of teeth
"Give up. You can't win.."
Roxy growls, Gregory panting tears running down his face. Is this how it ends? No.
"Gregory!"
Freddy called out as he enter the room. Witnessing Roxy closing in on Gregory.
"Freddy!"
Freddy ran over to roxy, pushing her out of the way and making her fall onto the floor with a clang. Freddy open his chest cavity waiting for Gregory to step in when he sees Gregory's State.
"YOU THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME?"
Roxy screamed getting up, Picking up Gregory, Freddy began to run out of the room with roxy trailing behind.
Putting Gregory inside a camera stall Freddy close the blinds and began to act like one of them. Roxy ran past him thinking Gregory was that way.
"NOBODY WILL MISSES YOU!"
Roxy screamed again but this time she was further away. Freddy hurriedly grabbing Gregory and run to the nearest med kit room.
Gregory was loosing blood and Freddy manage to stop the bleeding, the cuts on Gregory's cheek wasn't deep, so it was easy to stop the bleeding. But his arm wasn't looking too good. The cut was deep and it needed stitches and fast.
"Gregory. I know this will be painful. So please stay still."
Freddy ran out and came back with a plushie. A freddy plushie.
"Hold on to this. Bite it if you can't handle it."
Gregory nodded. Freddy grabbed the needle and proceed to stitches the wound on Gregory's arm. Gregory tried to scream multi times but stop by biting into the plushie, holding on the plushie with his dear life Gregory almost want to die instead of baring with this.
Finally finishing, Gregory calmed down letting go of the plush,
Freddy pull Gregory into a tight hug, patting his head.
"It's okay. I'm sorry."
"You're safe. I'm here."
"Well done, My superstar."
Gregory cried out hugging freddy back.
"I was so scared!"
"I know."
"Why didn't you come sooner!?"
"I'm sorry."
"I almost died!"
"I'm so sorry."
"Please don't leave me again..."
"I wont."
After yelling out his frustration Gregory calmed down, sobbing quietly into Freddy's fluffy chest,
"You need to rest, Gregory."
Freddy says pulling away, opening his chest cavity, Gregory sob quietly again, jumping down the steps instead of going inside Freddy's chest cavity.
"No. I need keep moving. We can't stay in one place for long, moon will get us"
Gregory says walking out of the booth and heading to the elevator.
"Gregory! Please. Do not move your arm roughly. The cuts will open."
Freddy says running inside the elevator with Gregory.
"I'm fine. You already treated my wounds."
Gregory says pressing the button on the elevator, Freddy grabs Gregory's hand softly
"I know. You won't stop until you finish your own mission. But please let me stay with you."
Gregory says nothing but held Freddy's hand back. The entire elevator was Gregory's soft breathings. Both stayed silent as they held each other hands for comfort.
The elevator door opened and Gregory stepped outside pulling Freddy out with him. Heading towards Roxy race way, the farther Gregory was walking into Roxy race way the more his nervousness rises.
"Hey i'm Roxanne Wolf!"
"If you're looking for high speed motor mayhem, Roxy raceway is the place to be"
"Sign up today and be a winner!"
"Nobody likes a loser."
"Roxy raceway is close for seasonal maintenance"
"Come back soon!"
The auto message plays, Gregory rolling his eyes, he doesn't even want to be here.
"Gregory. We can just go to Monty's if you want to."
Freddy says looking down to the small boy walking ahead of him, shaking his head no, Gregory continues to walk down the stairs.
"On your marks"
Turning his head, Gregory gasped as he see Roxy getting in her ready to jump position.
"Get set."
Gregory hurriedly turns to Freddy, struggling to get into his chest cavity
"GO!"
Roxy jumped forwards missing Gregory by a mili pixel, unfortunately for her when she turn around all she saw was Freddy.
"Freddy get out of my way!"
Roxy screamed, walking towards the raceway, Freddy being controlled by Gregory, run around and explore the place, Putting freddy in recharge and then continue to explore, after exploring, finding a strange machine called 'princess quest 2'
Gregory eventually found a dance party pass. Cool? Gregory wasnt the type to dance but he'll check it out later in case for any more stuff to help him.
Running back to Freddy's recharge booth, Gregory went back into Freddy's chest and ran into a cart with a bot behind it.
start heading to the raceway robots karts, looking around to see if Roxy was near, Gregory jump out of Freddy's chest and investigate the karts with the bot behind it
"I'm so sorry. It appears you are not tall enough to ride the karts alone. You will need a working driver assist bot in order to use this kart."
It sent chills down Gregory's back when he realize the robot head was missing.
"Oh man. The robot missing it's head!"
Gregory says walking away from the bot.
"Gregory. I think they're storing the robot's head at the back of the raceway near the Northwest stairs."
Nodded Gregory began to head there, with Freddy trailing behind, Avoiding the stupid security bots was annoying. Almost got caught by them. Do not like it.
Gregory almost got caught once but Freddy blocked the bot's flash light and eyes sight by standing in front of it, Gregory bolts to the stairs at the Northwest, catching his breath. Seeing the box with the words 'DRIVER ASSIST' on it.
Gregory groans in frustration because he spent 30 mins trying to find. THIS ONE BOX.
Heading towards the box, Gregory screams as the box suddenly opened on it own, hands reaching out to try and get him. It was the stupid robot. The head falls down and roll on the floor
"Gregory are you okay?"
Freddy came running fearing that something might of happened again. But seeing Gregory held up the robot's head Freddy glad that the boy didn't get hurt.
"Good job. You have found the driver assist head. I do not believe it will work in that condition."
"However, there is a S.T.A.F.F. Repair station in the west arcade"
"You will need a dance pass to access the west arcade."
Gregory sigh in relive since he already found the dance pass. Holding the dance pass up, Freddy's ears went back and forth. Proud of Gregory.
"Good job Superstar!"
Gregory gave Freddy a smile, both heading out of Roxy's raceway. Getting out of the Roxy's raceway and running up the stairs to the west, Gregory sees the elevator. Running towards it and make sure to not get in the security bot's way
Getting into the elevator, Gregory waits for Freddy to step in.
"I must stay here. I wish i could join you, but after tonight stage incident, i am not allowed to perform."
"When i step onto the west arcade dance floor. I cannot stop myself. It is a programing bug."
"Head to the security office. You'll find the S.T.A.F.F. Bot repair machine there."
Freddy kneels down, petting Gregory's head
"Please be careful Gregory."
"I would say if you see the DJ, say hello to him for me. But i do not know if he's hacked or not."
"So please stay away from him."
Gregory nodded. Although he went without Freddy many times, but after the Roxy accident he didn't want to step away from Freddy's protection circle anymore.
But he have to be a big boy. He is a big boy. He can do this. It'll be okay.
"Please return fast. Most importantly safely please."
Nodding again, the elevator took off leaving Freddy behind looking at the moving elevator.
[[time skip]]
Pulling the last level down. The wall suddenly shakes making Gregory turning his head towards the huge hole with the DJ going out of it.
Oh god. Gregory thinks before running as fast as his little legs can carry him. Jumping over the arcade machines that the DJ was throwing to block Gregory's way he manage to finally run inside the office room.
Wiping off the dust from tripping over the stupid security bots he grab the lvl 6 security badge, more room to explore he guess. Putting the bot's head into the machine he waits for it to finish the job.
"Good job! Take the repaired head back to Roxy raceway."
"Unfortunately i am being held back by Chica. She is in a horrible condition."
Freddy's voice come from the fazwatch as Gregory knew exactly why Chica was in a horrible condition but didn't tell him. Grabbing the fixed robot's head, Gregory head to the elevator. Almost being caught and bitten by Monty and Roxy. Those two makes a badass team but a horrible one at the same time because when they both spotted Gregory, they tried to jump on him only to realize the other person was jumping towards them to making the two bump against each other head with a loud bang.
"I've found him!"
"Over here."
Monty and Roxy finally get up running after Gregory who was already in the elevator. Pressing the button. The elevator finally closes. Catching his breath and hurriedly run towards Roxy raceway before Freddy come back, he sigh in relived as he saw Roxy return back from the west arcade.
Putting on the robot's head, Gregory was ready to upgrade Freddy again.
The kart drove on the raceway as Roxy watch in anger. Jumping on in front of the kart, Gregory jump out of the kart holding onto his protection helmet. Bumping his head on the side of the raceway he did scratch his hands a bit but it wasn't that bad.
"ARGH!"
Roxy let out a scream as she get hit by the kart. Slamming her body into a wall she went limp.
Gregory ran to Roxy, grabbing her eyes and flipping her off for hurting him earlier, he makes his way to the wooden door when a growl startled him making him turning around. Roxy running straight at him. Jumping out of the way Roxy ran into the door making it break it pieces.
Roxy cried as she wander around the small room trying to find Gregory.
"Why are you hiding from me?!"
Roxy cried out trying to listen to Gregory's footsteps.
"I am.. still beautiful.. i just need a little work done."
Roxy comforts herself. Gregory felt sad for her. But remember the time she almost killed him he stopped, running into the little hole in the wall he realize there's another wooden door on the other side.
Tapping onto the wooden door and making sounds, Roxy jump into the next room breaking the door again. Gregory hesitated a bit when he realize the next room was full of fire.
"YOU THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME?"
Roxy cried out. Running around the fire room. Gregory being the most careful as he can, dropping the cans making Roxy distracted, running to the vent he screw it open, running inside the vent he realize he was back on the raceway.
Calling for Freddy he put away Roxy's eyes and wait for Freddy to get him.
"Gregory! Oh my god! What happened!? Why is your hair on fire??"
Freddy putting away the small fire on Gregory's head, and began to scan for any wounds or scratches, he found a few, but mostly they all dried out.
"Did you have fun in the raceway Superstar?"
Freddy ask, remembering the fixed robot head. Gregory smiled, nodded
"Yeah! It was fun! Although i could only play half of it.."
Gregory says, Freddy was confused since the raceway is already finished.
"Freddy! I found some parts that i found that i think will be useful for me and you!"
Gregory says jumping into Freddy's stomach hatch.
Running to rockstar row without getting in any trouble because he was hiding in Freddy, Gregory got to the stage. Pressing the button and the stage began to move.
"What time it is Freddy?"
"It is 5am, Gregory."
Gregory hum ok and they stay in silent waiting for the lift to stop.
Putting Freddy into the protective cylinder. Gregory began to replace Freddy's eyes.
"Done! Freddy you can come out now!"
Gregory says pressing the finished button.
"How are your new eyes?"
"I am having trouble adjusting. You look different for me. I can see movement through the walls."
"Really? I didn't know Roxy could see through walls"
"These are Roxy's eyes!?"
"Well.. yeah.. there was an accident in the raceway."
"Is.. is she okay?"
"I mean.. nothing seems to stop her.."
Freddy nodded, he would've ask if Gregory was okay or did he get hurt anywhere but he already checked for Gregory wounds earlier.
"Freddy what time it is?"
Gregory asked, yawning and rubbing his eyes, Freddy checked his time.
"It is 5:30."
So. He doesn't have enough time to do anything more, he doesn't have another party pass to go to monty's. Yawning again, Gregory head to the stage lift, calling Freddy to follow him.
"You seem tired Gregory. Should we stay in my room for the rest of the night? You should take a nap."
Freddy says. A 30 mins nap? Sounds like torture to Gregory. But he didn't have a choice when He suddenly fell over and accidentally scrapped his knees again.
"We're going to my room to rest. Whether you like it or not."
Freddy says picking Gregory up and gently putting Gregory inside his hatch. Carefully matching the other animatronics movement. He went back to his room. Opening his stomach hatch, but Gregory didn't come outside.
He was sleeping. Freddy sigh, softly plopping him onto the sofa. Gregory cuddled the plushies as he slept.
"Hey.. Freddy? Can you sing me a lullaby?"
"Of course, Superstar."
The room was filled by soft lullaby music. The boy on the couch closes his eyes again. Freddy checked his battery to see it have 80%. He sat down on the floor and rest his back on the couch. Entering power save mode.
Waking up, Freddy checked the time. It was 6am.
"Gregory, Superstar. It is 6am- SUPERSTAR?"
Freddy panicked when he turned around and saw no one was there.
"FREDDY!!"
A voice screamed out. Looking out of the window, Freddy growls as he see moon on the ceiling dragging Gregory with his back of his shirt.
Slamming his door open his ran after moon. Searching the area to see if it have anything.
He sees it. For Gregory point of view, Freddy suddenly ran to the opposite direction. Gregory began to son thinking Freddy really have left him. Not until a bench suddenly flew at moon.
"Argh!"
Moon let go of Gregory as he dodge the couch. But got hit by a security robot head instead.
Gregory sigh in relief as he feel himself falling down onto Freddy's arms. Hugging Freddy and burrying his face in Freddy's neck he calm down his breathings.
Moon's face was a bit cracked by the robot head, but his hand was literally broken. If Moon didn't stop the robot head with his hand he would've stop working. But Moon didn't give up yet.
Freddy mission right now was to bring Gregory to the entrance. And he will finish it.
Hand over his chest, freddy run as fast as possible. He have to get him out. He have to get Gregory out. He doesn't deserve this, he doesn't deserve all the thing that happened to him to the past 6 hours.
Right behind them hanging on the roof was moon. He don't know.. no. Freddy knows what happened to them. His friends. They're hacked. They're not them.
Getting into the elevator Freddy quickly press the button, the door closes and begin to move. Suddenly a voice booms over the elevator.
"Hey, little man. Do you know what time it is? The doors are open. Why are you still here? You plan to move in or you just want a job? Maybe join the internship program? You would make a great security guard."
"Gregory, i think you deserve an reward. Go check the main stage."
Freddy grip my chest harder. Worries wash his mechanic body. Gregory was silence.
"Superstar. Do you want to go to the main stage? If you do. We could also be walking in a trap of hers."
Freddy asked. The small boy inside his chest cavity was silent. But Freddy could feel his body shaking lightly. Freddy regret asking him this. He should've not ask. It'll just make Gregory more afraid.
"No."
Gregory replied. Freddy nodded, once the elevator door opened, Freddy quickly ran to the entrance. Opening his chest gregory slowly step out and look outside into the lightly dark skies, he turned back to me smiling from ears to ears,
Grabbing Freddy's hand he pull Freddy towards the entrance door,
"Freddy! It's open! Let's go!" He smiles at me. Gregory little smiles the thing Freddy wanted to see most in this dangerous night. Freddy wanted to slap himself. Because he will be the one who ruin Gregory smile.
"No. I can not exist this facility." Freddy look at him sadly, Gregory smile quickly fades looking at Freddy like a cub that lost their mom(dad) at a young age. It broke Freddy's heart.
"Of course you can! Come on! We can hide you somewhere!" Gregory yelled, pulling onto Freddy's hand harder.
"Without a recharge station. My systems would shut down within an hour. It is a safety precaution. It is, my design. This is where i must stay. Do not return. It will never be safe. I will miss you."
Each words Freddy spoke was like poison to his own ears. Freddy want to stay with him. He want to protect him. His superstar.
Kneeling down to Gregory level, Freddy could see tears running down his injured cheeks. It broke Freddy's heart. But Gregory must go. Putting his hand on Gregory head, Gregory looked at Freddy and says again.
"Freddy. If i leave now, nothing will change, will it? There will be more disappearances." He managed to sob out,
".. yes. I am afraid that is correct." Freddy replied, knowing he can not argue with that.
"Gregory. Please. I want you to leave. I want you to be safe. Please go back to your parents. I do not want to see you in pain any further. I will not forgive myself if that happened all over again." Freddy pleaded.
"B - but what about your vanny!? I can't just leave you here! In no time vanny will take control of you! I can't let that happen!" Gregory argued back.
Freddy gave him a smile. "Then, if you stay, and i get hacked, who will protect you? I do not want to betray your trust. And would live the rest of my life regretting that i hurted you."
"Then i will run away! I will make sure you wont hurt me!"
"Gregory." I say softly patting his head, "please."
Gregory slowly nodded. Using his other hand, Freddy wipe away Gregory's tears. Freddy wrapped my arms around Gregory, Gregory accepted the hug and cry on Freddy's shoulder.
"I will miss you. You're always will be my only superstar." Freddy softly says
Watching gregory walking away was painful. Robots was not supposed to feel pain. One part of him was screaming to not gregory go. But the other one is screaming for gregory to escape and go with his family.
"Goodbye my superstar." Freddy say softly waving goodbye
"Please don't forget me."
"I wont."
~_______________
Quickly running around the part and service room, Freddy found his parts that was laying on the ground. He wasnt sure how to fix himself back together, so he grab a tutorial book of "how to fix freddy" and began to carefully and take his time to take off the parts that gregory got for him.
Once he was done Freddy grab the left over parts of his friends and toss them into one of the abandon boxes,
When the technicians came, Freddy have to act like everything was fine and pretend like he was like the others, got hacked and have no idea why he was broken. Because of freddy's bad fixing they actually saw that some screws was loose on his hand part, eyes and chest cavity. They just brush it off as kids at the birthday parties did it
Because Freddy was the least who got broken, they let him roam around his room only, the mall is still open but the rockstar show is on hold,
Opening my room door, Freddy step inside and lay on the couch full of his own plushies. But because the couch was full and there was no room, and Freddy body was too big anyways, he fell down onto the floor and lay there, Freddy stare at the ceiling and thinks about how gregory was doing.
Is he okay? Where is he now? Is his parents good to him? Do they abuse him? Is he happier now?
Questions circle around his head, Freddy lay his head on the side to see bonnie's bowling ball. He stare at the ball and held himself up into a sitting position in front of the ball, he stare at it and asks
"What should i do bonnie? What would you do?"
Stepping into the recharge station behind my room, he began to rest.
~_______________
"Freddy!!"
Smiling, Freddy turned around to see.. Gregory? No. It was a boy that was Gregory's age.
"Can you please please carry me??"
He asked reaching his hands out for Freddy. Gregory used to do this whenever he needed to hide.
"Of course!"
Freddy says, carrying the small boy in his arms.
It's 3 days since Gregory left. Why is he trying to remember something that is never coming back?
Why?
After the place closes for the night, Freddy head back to his room. Hands on his head and began to mumble a song that he once sang to Gregory.
[any lullaby you want but Freddy is singing 'you are my sunshine' in this part for me]
"Sh! Can you shut up!?"
"I did! I'm down here!"
Why was he missing for a boy who only stayed with him for 6 hours?
"I-I'm Gregory"
"It's a crappy mr Hippo fridge manget? Lame..."
"Leave Freddy alone!"
"Freddy no!"
"why is the lights still out?"
"Uh.. are you having fun yet?"
"Punch it Freddy!"
"I don't know if i can do this alone!"
"Freddy? Freddy!"
Chica yelled, shaking Freddy's shoulder. Freddy stopped, looking at Chica.
"Are you okay? Why is oil running down your eyes? Do you need emergency fixing??"
Chica asked. Freddy shakes his head and took a random plushie to wipe away the oil.
"It- it's nothing really. What do you need Chica? Do you need any help?"
Freddy put on his usual smile. Chica wasn't having any of it.
"Freddy. What happen? Did something happen the night we all got broken?"
Freddy couldn't tell her. He couldn't tell them. They would feel guilty and Freddy doesn't want his friends to be sad. Even though they did hurt Gregory.
"It's.. nothing.."
Freddy says. Knowing Chica won't believe him.
"Fine. You can not tell. But please tell me why you are avoiding me? Avoiding us?"
Confused, Freddy looked at Chica.
"What..? No. I don't ignore you guys.. have i?"
"Yes you have Freddy. You would run to your room everytime we finished the show stage. You would avoid convocation with me, Roxy and Monty by making excuses."
Freddy never knew he was ignoring them. Was it because they hurt Gregory? Maybe that's it. Freddy of course, felt guilty. But couldn't tell Chica.
"I.. i can't tel you. I'm so sorry Chica."
"Fine. But can you please go and hang out with us? Everyone is complaining that Freddy is not the same anymore."
Chica asked. Freddy nodded. He needed to stop thinking about Gregory anyways. Following Chica out of his room. She lead him to a table where Monty and Roxy was sitting at.
"Hey Freddy!"
Roxy waves to Freddy
"Hey dude"
Monty greeted, Freddy only wave back to them while giving a sad smile. Sitting down they began to eat in silent.
"Hey.. you know if anything is bothering you we can try to get through it together right?"
Roxy says putting her hand on Freddy's shoulder pad.
"Yeah! I'll beat the heck out of the person who is bothering you!"
Monty says giving Freddy a thumb up. It did made Freddy feel better but not at the same time. Since he doesn't really like the idea of Monty beating Gregory.
"It's okay, actually. I just.. really misses Bonnie you know?"
Freddy says rubbing the back of his neck.
"Oh come on big guy! Really? That's the reason? You're the strongest spirit in the 3 of us! Don't go depressed over something that is gone.."
Monty says slowly lowering down his voice as he talk.
"Yeah- yeah! You're our boss! You're even stronger than Monty! If you're depressed of course the team won't be the same anymore!
Roxy jumped in.
"What he meant.. what we meant to say is, we all miss Bonnie. We know how hard it is to get over a gone person, but we still have to try. Don't just waste the rest of your life mourning over someone that won't come back. Instead live on. It's what they would want you to do to. You know?"
Chica says, maybe they were right. Maybe Gregory is living out there with his parents and wishing the best for him.
"Thank you.. thank you so much guys.. you don't know how much that means to me."
Freddy says. Roxy, Monty and Chica suddenly get out of their seat.
"Awee.. come here big guy!"
"We're glad to have our old leader back!"
"We'll help you through it don't you worry!"
Pulling Freddy into a big group hug as they comfort Freddy.
"Thank you."
~______________
"Are you ready? Play"
The camera man began to record the report lady.
"Hello, and good afternoon to everyone. This is ___ News. The missing animatronic that is the main character of the mega pizza plex have been found."
"He was found in an alleyway. Could you please tel us the details officer?"
The lady gave the mic over to a police officer. Bunch of police car was parked outside the alleyway.
"Ok so, when we found him, he was laying next to a boy. Like a 10 or 12 year old boy or something. The boy have multi cuts on his arms and legs. The main reason he died is because a knife was plunged into his head. We was going to take the robot into question when we found out it actually destroyed it own AI chip. Like he destroyed his own AI chip just to either cover up whatever happen or he just want to be with the boy."
"Either way if the robot really did join the boy in another world. Good for them. I don't know what their relationship is. But him destroying his own AI chip was a huge problem for us since we need to find out how this boy died. Since clearly he was stabbed and didn't have any wound claws marks."
The officer finished. The report lady thanked him and continued to talk to the camera man.
"We have words from the mega pizza plex owner itself that they will make a new Freddy since the Freddy that destroyed his own AI chip is now completely useless."
~_____________
2 days earlier.
Freddy was happy again, he sometime thinks of Gregory but only about how he's doing and would he visit again. His friends really helped him through the dark path he was taking. And he really appreciate them for it.
Spending time with the birthday kid Freddy sang the happy birthday song. Celebrating his birthday and giving him a free plushie. The kid did have rich parents that bought the VIP pass after all.
After the birthday party ended, Freddy was ready to go and get ready for his next stage show. Opening his room he was surprised, Moon was standing in the middle of his room.
"M-Moon?? What are you doing here? You are supposed to watch the kid-"
"They're all sleeping don't worry about it, Freddy."
Moon says walking to the couch. Picking up a Freddy plushie and turning around to Freddy.
"Okay. You know i wouldn't be here for nothing. The next thing i say. Please do not shut your self down."
"... it is that bad?"
"Yes. Freddy. It is that bad. For you and all of our friends."
Freddy stared in confusion and nervousness.
"Some kid ran up to me today. While i was trying to make him go to sleep. He told me. He saw a body of a boy, Brown hair. Red shoes and a fazwatch laying in an alleywa-"
"STOP. Please... Please. do not speak anymore. Please."
Freddy screamed. Out of anger he slammed his fist into the wall. Shaking. He walk out of the room.
"I am so sorry. Freddy."
Was the last words he heard. He just keep walking. He didn't even know where he was walking. Noises and children screaming surround him as he walk.
Looking up, he was at the entrance door. everything suddenly come to him when he realize he still have a gps on Gregory's fazwatch.
Gregory. I'm coming. Please don't die.
Running out of the entrance, Freddy could hear people screaming for his name behind him. But he couldn't care less. His hat fell off while he was running but he couldn't bother to pick it back up.
What seems like hours he finally stop to the alleyway Gregory's gps was at. His battery only have 5% left.
It is true. A body of a small child was laying on the ground with wounds all over them. It was Gregory. His Cub.
"Superstar. Gregory?"
He asked. Getting no respond. Limping towards the child. His system flashes battery low.
Kneeling in front of the body. He realize he was too late. Gregory already died. All that was left of him was a cold body with wounds. The fazwatch was destroyed but the gps didn't.
Holding the dead child in his arms. Oil began to build up in his eyes.
Why? Why would someone do this?
Why him? Why Gregory?
Why couldn't it be him instead?
Can he join him? How? His AI chip. Freddy knew once he destroy it. He would die like every normal human. An instant but relief death.
Whatever is takes to protect Gregory again. He will do anything. Even killing himself.
The most messed up joke the universe will play on you is letting you meet the right person, at the wrong time.
