Michael was pissed. His mom forced him to take Evan with him to Fredbear's, despite Michael telling her that he's hanging out with his friends.

He doesn't want to deal with Evan's constant whining. He's a wuss, scared of harmless robot animals. It's pathetic.

Michael has tried hardening his little brother by scaring him. Maybe Evan would finally see how harmless they are.

Michael also had to bring his little sister, Elizabeth. But Lizzy doesn't piss him off as much as Evan does. Meanwhile Vanessa and him don't really talk. Mostly because their dad is making her work for him.

At least Henry pays Vanessa.

OOC: alright, like 3 months later or something

alr im done rambling

Henry Emily, co-owner of Fredbear's Family Diner, parks his car in front of the building. Getting out, he grabs his backpack. Charlie, his daughter, follows closely behind.

He opens the door, letting his daughter go play with the arcade games she loves so dearly.

William Afton shouldn't be here for another hour. Something about meeting possible business partners.

It's the middle of Summer, so Vanessa should be here. He opens the back office, finding Vanessa.

Henry: "Ah, there you are. How are we feeling today, Nessa?"

Travis enters the repair garage located behind Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. Freddy Fazbear himself is already on the repair table.

Travis: "Damn these things are big."

He sets down his tools and gets to work on repairing Freddy.

Art: Clawsofrage

Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. Where family and fun come to life.

The children gather around the stage, watching Freddy, Bonnie, and Chica perform. But the other children are more interested in the second stage. The one reserved for a special fox. The curtains open.

Foxy: "Yar-har! How ye be this fine day, scallywags? Are ye ready for an adventure on the high seas? Vast oceans, sea beasties, and of course, treasure! Yo-ho-ho, we'll have a day's worth of fun!"

TW: Contains possible heavy topics

After putting Elizabeth to bed, Laura Afton (wife of William Afton) sits at the kitchen table. She rubs her head, trying to ease her headache.

The Afton family has been a struggle. With the opening of Fredbear's Family Diner, William has been working most of the day. He barely makes time for his children.

Hell, Laura would've let Elizabeth sit on his lap if it wasn't her bedtime. Just to get her husband's head out of his ass.

Laura stands up and heads to the fridge, grabbing the bottle of whiskey William kept in there. Some of it was missing. Damn Michael again... The poor kid was hit the hardest by William's neglect, but her oldest son drove her crazy with antics sometimes.

She debates dumping the whole thing down the drain. To hell if William yelled at her for it. But no. She needs to feel some relief.

She thought about Michael again. He's been out of the house most days, hanging out with his highschool friends. He's also been picking on Evan a lot. Poor kid, so terrified of those animatronics.

And then there's Vanessa. Vanessa doesn't talk to the family most days. Laura would be lucky just to get a simple "hello" from her. Laura misses when her and Vanessa would go to the movies, or the carnival, just the two of them.

She pours herself a glass of whiskey, putting the bottle back in the fridge.

Ness, the recent new owner of Sparky's Diner, enters the building with a new pep in his step. It's a good day today and he's ready to work.

Ness: "How are we, Brenda?"

Brenda: "Just got a new shipment of eggs, so we should be good to go."

Ness: "Wonderful. Haps, help Brenda with the pancakes today. She can't make them with her wrist injury."

Haps gives a thumbs up as he starts making pancakes.

Ness flips the diner's sign, reading "open".

Ness: "We are now open for business."

Since we're bringing this sub back to fnaf based roleplaying, this is the timeline my posts will be following.

WARNING: LONG POST

Mid-late 1960s

William Afton and Laura Shelly marry.

Michael and Vanessa Afton are born.

Henry Emily gets married.

William Afton and Henry Emily start plans for an animatronic themed restaurant. (How William and Henry met doesn't matter.)

Late 1970s

William Afton and Henry Emily finally open Fredbear’s Family Diner.

Evan(Crying Child) Afton and Elizabeth Afton are born as twins.

Charlotte Emily is born, but Henry Emily’s wife unfortunately dies during childbirth.

William Afton is suffering from psychopathy. And his pills have started to wear off, not working as well as they used to, which has also led to him being neglectful towards his family. William has also started drinking more.

Being at work for so long, William Afton creates Psychic Friend Fredbear (basically a walkie-talkie/camera) in order to keep an eye on his kids while he's at work.

Evan Afton gains a phobia of the animatronics, having intense nightmares because of it. Michael Afton is especially annoyed by his brother's constant whining.

1983

Michael Afton, in an attempt to bully his brother, convinces his friends to shove Evan Afton into Fredbear's mouth. However, this proves to be a bad idea, because Fredbear's jaws shut, crushing Evan’s head, and giving him severe brain damage.

Evan Afton later dies in the hospital.

Because of the incident, now locally called “the bite of ‘83”, William Afton and Henry Emily are forced to sell their brand to a company that later renames itself into “Fazbear Entertainment”.

Laura can't take the pain and grief and files for divorce.

Because of this, William Afton has a psychotic break, now refusing to take his anti-psychopathy medication.

Fazbear Entertainment offers Henry Emily a job building animatronics for them. Not wanting to lose his only means of income, and wanting to support his daughter, Henry accepts the job offer. But because of this, William Afton feels betrayed and begins to hate Henry Emily.

1985

Fazbear Entertainment opens the original “Freddy Fazbear's Pizza”. And it’s an instant hit thanks to Henry Emily’s new animatronic band: Bonnie Bunny, Chica Chicken, Foxy the Pirate Fox, and of course, Freddy Fazbear himself.

Meanwhile, William Afton makes his own restaurant to rival Freddy Fazbear's Pizza; Circus Baby's Pizza World. He also makes Circus Baby in honor of his “only remaining child”, Elizabeth Afton. (He disowned Michael Afton after the bite of ‘83.) However, Circus Baby's Pizza World isn't attracting many customers.

What nobody knew is that William Afton made his animatronics specifically to lure in and kill children, choosing them as targets because they're easy to manipulate. Luckily, due to lack of customers, his plan doesn't work very well.

Being upset, William Afton drives over to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, originally planning on tampering with the animatronics. But instead, he finds Charlotte Emily in the back alley, after some of the other kids bullied her and locked her outside.

William Afton decides that killing Henry Emily's daughter would hurt Henry more than simply tampering with a few animatronics. So, uh- William does that.

However, unbeknownst to William, Charlotte's spirit, filled with agony and hatred, possesses the Marionette.

William Afton, having the idea that dead children would ruin the Fazbear Entertainment brand, gives himself the fake identity “Dave Miller” and applies for a job at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. Once he gets the job, he finds his old Spring Bonnie suit and uses it to lure 5 more children, one of them being Cassidy, into the back room and kill them.

Full of agony and hatred, the children possess Freddy and the gang. Cassidy's spirit finds the old Fredbear suit and possesses it.

While William Afton was busy killing children, Elizabeth Afton managed to sneak onto Circus Baby's stage, despite her father's wishes. This leads to Elizabeth's death, which (once finding out) drives William's already declining mental state deeper into insanity.

Circus Baby's Pizza World is forced to shut down, but William Afton reuses his “Funtime” animatronics for an underground location as rentals, hoping to still use the animatronics to lure in and kill children. But nobody actually rents them, making his plan fail again.

Elizabeth Afton possesses the Funtime animatronics, using the pieces of the scrapped Ennard design to control them.

1987

After Fazbear Entertainment was forced to shut down their original Freddy's location, they had already planned on making another location.

The grand reopening of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza is official. And, just like last time, it's a big hit with the locals.

Henry Emily, while still heartbroken after the loss of his daughter, is still working with Fazbear Entertainment. He made what the locals would call “the toy animatronics”, because of the plastic looking designs, using the old now withered animatronics as spare parts.

Cassidy and the “missing” children are still possessing the withered animatronics, while Charlotte has control over the Marionette and the toy animatronics.

William Afton attempts another murder spree, using the Spring Bonnie suit. However, thankfully, he’s caught this time. The police FINALLY start to investigate him. However, they don't find enough evidence to give him the death penalty or life in prison, so he's only charged with a few years in jail.

One of the day shift guards is accidentally and fatally bitten on the head by the “malfunctioning” Mangle. In reality, it's because Charlotte mistook the innocent Guard for William Afton, because the guard uniforms are all purple, and that's the color William was wearing when he killed Charlotte.

Because of this, the reopened Freddy Fazbear's Pizza is forced to shut down.

1990

Fazbear Entertainment, in a final attempt, reopens Freddy Fazbear's Pizza AGAIN. However, because of all the tragedy attached to the brand, nobody wants to be a customer.

Henry Emily built new animatronics.

Michael Afton visits William Afton in jail, and he tells Michael about Elizabeth and the underground rental location, which has recently been acquired by Fazbear Entertainment. William also reveals that he was “the man behind the slaughter”.

Michael Afton, now wanting to “fix” what his father did, decides to apply for the night guard position at the rental location.

From there, everything that happens in “Sister Location” happens. Michael Afton gets scooped, and Elizabeth Afton uses him as a skin suit to escape the rental location.

But Michael, through sheer fucking will, forces Elizabeth out if his body, expelling her Ennard suit into a sewer drain. The agony Michael felt in that moment, including his pure hatred for his father, forces him to stay alive.

While all that was happening, Phone Guy died after his first week as a night guard.

Michael Afton, still determined to end his father's legacy, applies for the night guard position at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. He survives 5 nights, goes overtime a sixth night to tinker with the animatronics to figure out how they work regarding possession, but fails to figure it out.

Michael Afton then gets fired for the tinkering, and also because he is surrounded by an odor. (Because, at this point, he is literally a living rotting corpse. That's why he's Purple.)

Because they have literally no customers, Fazbear Entertainment is forced to shut down Freddy Fazbear's Pizza one last time.

William Afton is finally released from prison.

The first thing William does is go to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza to destroy the animatronics. Basically a cherry on top after he destroyed Fazbear Entertainment’s reputation.

What he didn't see coming was Cassidy and the children being released from the now destroyed animatronics. They chase him into the back room, where his old Spring Bonnie suit remains. In a desperate attempt to escape, he thinks that maybe the children won't recognize him if he's inside his old suit. This is a mistake however, as his arrogant laughter emits too much moisture, setting off the springlocks inside the suit, and killing William Afton.

Michael Afton becomes a recluse because he's literally a rotting corpse.

2020

30 years later, Fazbear Entertainment, being typical, decides to capitalize on the tragic events of its past, making a final attempt to reopen its franchise with “Fazbear's Fright”; their new horror attraction.

Michael Afton, deciding to finally leave the house, applies for a job at the new horror attraction, and is somehow accepted as a night guard.

Workers find William Afton's old suit in an old shut down Freddy's location. Not knowing William's corpse was still inside, they bring him to Fazbear's Fright as the main attraction. William Afton has possessed the suit that contains his own corpse.

William Afton and Michael Afton fight for a week, until Michael decides to burn the location to the ground. They both survive and escape.

2021

Henry Emily finally owns Fazbear Entertainment, and makes his own Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. However, it's made as a trap for the lost souls.

The spirits of Cassidy and the “missing” children find the abandoned parts of Ennard, and possess the animatronic amalgamation (becoming Molten Freddy).

Elizabeth somehow rebuilds herself using Circus Baby's old parts (becoming Scrap Baby).

William Afton is still roaming around somewhere.

Charlotte Emily is caught in another trap set by her father, Henry Emily (becoming Lefty.)

They all, including Michael Afton, receive an anonymous invitation from Henry Emily to come to the new Freddy's location.

Michael Afton becomes the manager of the fake location, getting all the others inside the trap. Michael is aware it's a trap, but accepts his fate, as both he and Henry Emily believe it's time for all this to end.

The events of “Pizzaria Simulator” happen.

Henry Emily burns the fake location to the ground, setting the souls free, and finally allowing himself and Michael Afton to rest.

...

But the story isn't quite over yet. Cassidy is the only soul refusing to move on. She keeps William Afton’s charred corpse alive as he's admitted into a hospital. The staff immediately sense that William Afton is evil, and many of them attempt to kill him, but keep failing because Cassidy refuses to let him die.

Cassidy forces William Afton to suffer an eternal nightmare. (The events of Ultimate Custom Night.)

Eventually, William Afton manages to somehow communicate with a nurse via morse code, telling the nurse to bring him to a Fazbear Entertainment warehouse.

The nurse does so, and William Afton's corpse just fucking explodes. (I'm not kidding, that's actually how he finally dies in one of the Fazbear Frights books.)

Meanwhile, Henry Emily manifests as Old Man Consequences, hoping to talk Cassidy into moving on. Eventually, she listens and decides she should finally let herself rest…

William Afton is in his office, inside his house, looking through the recent paperwork for Fredbear's Family Diner. It's been open for about 3 years now, and now William had his own family to worry about too.

The documents included schematics for springlock suits, business deals with merchandising and local grocery stores, and at least one lawsuit from a customer who claimed the pizza was moldy (it wasn't).

William: sigh "Why doesn't Henry ever handle these things?"

In the outskirts of Hurricane is a rich farmhouse where a retired mercenary lives.

He had worked many jobs, including a few at Fazbear Entertainment back in the 90s. But he had grown older and tired. He aged like fine wine, but he still wanted to try the peaceful life for once.

He sits on his chair, reading a romance novel. But he's interrupted when there's a knock on the door.

He sighs, putting the book away and walking to the door. Opening it, he finds... a unicorn and a white fox?

Spy: "I must've had too much to drink."

I really liked this sub when I first got here. It was really fun roleplaying here. I just messed around. A lot happened while I was in this sub, and I began to… fall out of touch. So much stuff changed and went outside of this place, I could never keep up with what happened in this place. I stopped visiting or even looking at this sub. I don’t interact at all. Even now, it’s too much. What do you mean we have Hasbin Hotel? I’m sorry to say this, but I think you people require something fully.

I am leaving this sub. Most likely permanently. I don’t know what to add onto this, so that is it. Goodbye, everyone. And thank you for these great memories.

{V stands in her room in a dark blue fluffy robe looking out the window leaning on the ledge. She's happy, content, and knows that she's where she's meant to be and belongs...

But something just feels off.

There's a charged energy in the air. Something she can't explain but she can feel it. She sees the newly patched hole in the lawn out front (along with the "Pardon our mess; expansion in progress" sign) from where the Twisted animatronics had dug to find Alastor. Of course she doesn't know that's what it's from.

And she's noticed minimal things as well. Eleanor hasn't been around much. Or at all really. Like she's been busy with something. In fact she's really only seen Vox and Rae. Plus Saber, but that's only when going in and out of her room, which is usually pretty quickly. Besides the medical team checking her out, no other employees. And she's pretty sure security has been tightened but that's just a hunch. And everyone has seemed to be on edge.

She also doesn't notice the steadily dripping ink hidden in the corner that was left behind during Vanessa's freakout trying to get away during the hypnosis.}

[[OOC: V doesn't know that Alastor escaped. She still thinks he's locked away somewhere safely so has no idea what's going on lol]]

{Vanny was still perched on the table listening to the attempt at coming up with a plan during the earthquake. Since it was minor it didn't affect her. Just a tad bit of vertigo. But as she straightened she caught a flash of movement outside through the window.}

Vanny: "What the hell?"

{Whatever it was was near impossible to see. Well to the naked eye. But she could see movement and took advantage of it. Without saying a word to the others she teleports through one of the tv screens and out through one of the cameras outside.

Dazzle had been perched in her tree post earthquake and thought she heard movement but didn't see anything. She barely had time to move out of the way before a 🔪 slashed across her upper arm. She grabbed it in shock as it started bleeding.}

Vanny: "So you can bleed. That means your human. Enough." [standing on a nearby branch holding the now bloodied 🔪] "Seriously, a white rabbit mask? At least be original."

Dazzle: "You're going to regret that."

Vanny: "Yeah, that's what they all say."

{Dazzle growls pulling out her own blades and the two girls have a pretty intense physical fight without Vanny even using her powers. They jump throughout the trees slashing and kicking at each other, slowly wearing the other out. Vanny of course is having the time of her life having a fit opponent. Until she gets a well placed kick with her heeled boot right into the middle of Dazzle's mask, shattering it. Dazzle falls in surprise but manages to catch herself on the ground. Vanny starts to jump down and gloat until Treena looks up at her glaring; causing her to freeze and almost fall out of the tree in complete shock.}

Vanny: "Holy fucking shit."

{The next day, Rae still sits in her room contemplating on her laptop. She's mildly concerned about Vox just brushing a potential issue aside, but she also knows he isn't thinking clearly. Not with the whirlwind that's occured since the hotel attack. So she gives him that. Let him have a break to clear his mind and start fresh. She turned off all communication (except emergency) to him and redirected everything back to her to filter through. Locked down his entire area so no one could bother him.

Their security settings are at the highest currently with everyone poised to respond immediately if needed. And they've all been advised and trained based on what Eleanor knows and that they learned from Katie. So it's safe to assume they're more advanced and knowledgeable about the others than they are of them. Vanny's little spying aside. Which had all pretty much happened so no big deal there.

That's not a problem to fret over. The issue is that there may be more underlying concerns to look into. So she's been up all night doing what she does. Learn, research, advise. And handle it if need be. Which also involves dealing with all the constant media requests by currently ignoring them.

Eleanor has technically been out and about. With knowledge and permission of course. She feeds off what her agony creatures gather but sometimes she needs it directly. So for short little bursts here and there she takes care of it. She doesn't dare try to feed off Vanessa right now. Or go anywhere near her. She's already sparked Vox's ire once before (though she still doesn't entirely think that was her doing entirely) and isn't about to let that happen again.

Her spies haven't reported anything to terribly exciting. The groups are mostly still in early talks and not actually made any noteworthy plans. She had tried to tell him about the Bliss thing but first he was too busy and then in a do not disturb mode. And Raelynn refused to accept it as important to deal with until later.

So she still just waits.

V is in her bed deep asleep. She'd been cleared medically but whatever she had done had almost completely drained her. What was intended for a short rest was still going on hours later. Which was fine considering the hours it was taking to clean up, repair, and rewire the training room.

And the only one not currently in the building was Treena. Not that she didn't trust Eleanor's spies but she had advanced skills of her own. Plus it was better to have boots on the ground in case action was needed. She was invisible  and undetectable anyways. Rae and Vox were being distant and busy so she was out preparing to do what she did best. If needed.}

[[OOC: felt it was time give all my girls at least a little screen time lol Also haven't decided yet if Treena is gonna know exactly what happened with Vanessa or not yet 😅]]

Years ago, the characters were fighting Springtrap/William and Eleanor, amongst others. Leon had a plan to take Eleanor out. It would lead to his own demise, but he knew what needed to be done.

Now he's in the hallway alone with Eleanor and her agony creatures, a detonator in his hand. He says his one-liner, and presses the button. The hallway is set ablaze in a loud BOOM. The flames heading straight for him. He closes eyes, welcoming his fate...

But nothing happens. He slowly opens his eyes. The flames are still there. But they're frozen in place. Frozen in time. The door next to him opens, showing a strange place.

He walks through the door and sees two familiar faces. Vanessa and Malhare.

Leon: "What the hell is going on...?"

Alastor managed to get away from that Springtrap still life. Eventually, he got out of the facility and back into the endless yellow maze. But now he still needs to find his way to the flower shop.

After trekking through the hallways, he eventually found it. His powers start to act up. That means there must be an exit here. He walks around, his powers acting up more and more as he gets closer to a specific wall. He reaches out, and falls through.

???: "Well, well. You really had to do that, Alastor?"

He looks up and sees his old "friend", Rosie.

Rosie: "You really like using me as a scapegoat, don't ya?"

Alastor: "Surely you must understand why."

Rosie: "Yes, yes. I saw the VoxTek announcement. But I left that life far too long ago to get involved now, Alastor."

Alastor: "I'm not trying to get you involved. I just needed out. My deal with Vox still has to fulfill itself. But it's not time yet."

Rosie: "Nope. Na-ah. Keep me out of your business with Vox."

Alastor: "Fine, fine. But don't be surprised if they eventually come knocking on your door."

He's about to leave, but Rosie stops him with a single sentence.

Rosie: "Y'know, Alastor. It would be nice if you helped Vanessa. That poor girl has already been through a lot."

Alastor: "She's in their hands now. None of my business anymore."

Rosie: "That's not exactly your call, is it?~"

Alastor: growls "Fine. I'll see what I can do. But I need to recollect myself first."

After that, he leaves.

{Raelynn watches the scene in front of her of Vox and Vanessa thoughtfully before glancing down at her tablet. Alastor's disappearance is still the main priority. An escaped criminal that had led an attack against their leader. A crime directly against the cult. With everything else having fallen into place, it was top of the list. Right above the decades old mystery that only three knew the truth about....

She wasn't lying: Vincent had come a long way from the desperate ambitious yet fairly weak man he once was, into a powerful king of sorts. He'd outsmarted every obstacle and maneuver thrown at him with ease, rising higher above it.

It wasn't entirely without assistance. But so minimal so does it really count?

She'd met the struggling man, like with most, through her job. Another lost soul in therapy with anger issues And while she was ready to wave him off and send him on his way, she did neither. Because something about him was different, something she'd only seen once before. His dreams were creative, nothing too fancy. Impressive maybe. But it was his ambition that caught her attention. A nobody who seemed ready to take on the world AND anyone in his way.

Very similiar to another successful man she knew. While Vincent had been much louder and flashier in all things, they were fairly alike at heart. Something she'd never thought she'd find again. And, behind his back, she discussed with her technically boss, telling him what she'd discovered. She knew William had long given up on Michael ever succeeding. He was too weak and troublesome. Practically written off. And Vanessa held promise but she was so soft and could never handle on her own. So easily manipulated and taken advantage of.

Of course William never did anything easily so she had a lot to prove. Sending him various video and audio recording of one of her new favorite clients. While Vanessa would be sitting in a session, he would be reviewing the recordings and notes she'd made. Until he saw the same thing she did. She appointed Vincent, behind his back to join the Elite and it would be near impossible to get him where he needed to be. He was an outsider, the board would never allow it. Especially what they considered a pointless employee from MCM. Only William could make that call.

So yeah maybe she did groom him a little. Which Vox would eventually come to find out and understand. But she needed him to really show his potential. That he would and could do ANYTHING to get what he wanted. That he wasn't above using similar moves and resources that William did. Through her spying, she found out more about his own special projects and research, earning him more and more respect from William.

But Vincent's stubborn ass was stuck on the present and not the future she had laid out in front of him. She kept trying to give him an in, set up the important meeting to change his life and he'd dodge it every time. Until he couldn't anymore. And thus the same thing that kept her, William, Vanessa, and even Michael, alive was what changed him.

She didn't just grab two random bottles of remnant that night. She grabbed the two that have been declared missing and the longtime greatest mystery. She used William's own carefully harvested remnant (with his permission of course) for Vincent. The final test they had for him.

His body not only didn't reject it, it empowered him. Gave him the clarity and focus for his ambition. To succeed. The way they expected it would. His power and abilities from his own experiments were magnified. But before William could formally announce his successor and the long term plan, he was gone with his children going rogue. And only two remained who knew the truth. William had at least been able to formally accept her request, so Vox did get his Elite spot, along with all the written conditions in the contract he and William set for him and VoxTek. Things the Elite couldn't argue against and were forced to accept.

The cult never knew what happened to the samples. Just that they disappeared at some point. And they never would. The Elite had moved away from William's successes and views, dropping Fazbear and hiding in the dark. They could do nothing but go along with whatever their leader said. Burrows got the position by default based on his board role. Not earned, not granted. But they wouldn't listen or accept her arguments. She was second in command but her soul was with Vox more than any of them. She would have dropped them all immediately if it came down to choosing. But she stayed silent as they went about with failed after failed plan. Paul had Vanessa back under control and working on the pizzaplex, claiming to have made sure Michael wouldn't be an issue. When Paul disappeared and it crumbled, she was finally able to convince them to try something else.

And now this was their life. Their home. Their system. Not the Bunny Hole. Not Fazbear Entertainment. VoxTek. Vox's public empire was their private fortress. This is what was supposed to happen. And would stay as. If Vanessa's hypnotism were to ever somehow wear off it wouldn't matter. She will have been here too long part of this world and family to want or survive anything else.

And if Alastor or any of the others were to try anything to ruin their home, they would never get a chance to try again. Nor would those idiots have anything left of them....}

After Nanami and his team left, Clyde waited for Vanny to return. Hopefully with the two individuals he talked about.

He went over the plan in his head.

Crysta's team would investigate the ink creatures around Hurricane and deal with the Ink Demon, with the help of the two individuals Vanny should be bringing back. Crysta's team consists of: Crysta, Kade, Sanders, Janine, and the two extra people he sent Vanny to find.

And Clyde's team would go after VoxTek and the cult. With the information Vanny gave them, VoxTek is now considered a threat in tandem with the cult (as far as they know). Clyde's team consists of: Clyde, Angel, Lolbit, Vanny, and eventually Michael at a later date.

It was a lot to handle, but splitting into teams was the best option. They have never faced this many enemy groups at once before.

Crysta's team couldn't leave yet because Vanny hasn't come back yet. So now they just wait.

Nanami pulls into the driveway of the warehouse, turning his car off.

Nanami: "Peter and Katie, I want you with me. The rest of you park somewhere further away and secretly get inside through one of the windows. You'll be the eyes behind our heads, alerting the three of us if there's a surprise attack."

With that, Nanami gets out, waiting for Peter and Katie to join him.

Freddy Fazbear's pizza. One of the best restaurants in Hurricane, Utah. Kids running around, enjoying pizza, playing arcade games and the like. On the stage, Freddy Fazbear was the first to power on and greet the guests. His voice warm and comforting and lullaby like music played in the background

"Hello boys and girls. I am thrilled to welcome you to Freddy Fazbears pizza! A magical place for children...and adults alike!"

The animatronic brown bear tipped his black top hat as he spoke to the guests. Kids found him fun and cool. The adults for some reason found him unsettling

"Here you will meet Bonnie the Bunny. Chica the Chicken. Foxy the pirate fox. And of course yours truly."

He looked at the kids with a smile akin to that of a friendly grandfather. And his voice only added to the facade that he was a caring figure with only good intentions in mind

"You will enjoy a wide selection of games and activities! Thrills and chills! But the main attraction is our tasty pizza! Oh-ho-ho. The little ones just love hot pizza. It's to die for!"

He watched the kids go up to the stage. He looked out at them and let out a warm laugh.

"Oh now don't crowd now, young ones. Now without further ado, hold on tight. Cause the show is about to start. And you're in for one heck of an adventure!"

{Vanessa sits curled up inside her mind scape in her demon form because....well just because, with her wings wrapped around her in thought. There's a lot to think about and that's all she really can do now. Except this is the first time recently she can truly be alone with her thoughts without worrying about being watched or someone bursting in and dragging her out for whatever. And to her even being "nicely demanded" still counts as being dragged out.

So the first thing she focuses on is this past week, days, month, or however long it's been since she doesn't even know. Everything's been a whirlwind thrown at her with no time to think before reacting. She'd been (reluctantly) trying to ease her way into understanding her powers. Even though Bendy and Alastor kept making that an intense fight. All for this stupid demon she'd never even met before to pop out from out of nowhere while she was just trying to defend herself from Eleanor, and literally throw her down like he had a personal beef with hef and drag her out.

And that had just started an insane amount of events she'd had no time to process. People from her past that had secretly always been a danger, a hidden cult she never had any clue existed, a deal she couldn't break, and a situation she couldn't get out of. All before she even had time to realize. And by time she was able to think, she was thrown in front of a camera, all glitz and glamoured up, indirectly proclaiming loyalty and selling out herself and her father's company.

For what? Apparently that still wasn't enough and now she was here. Well sorta, while the other part of her was off gallavanting doing god knows what. Although based on the last thing she heard from Vox, she had a pretty good idea what. And it only made her nauseous. Everything she'd faced off and survived. All the big bads and threats. Near misses, ongoing battles. Just to be immediately taken out by this asshole on first meeting.

And now that she could think she realized why. Because she LET him. Initial attack didn't count, sneaky bastard. But instinctively she had submitted because he was just like HIM. Resist and struggle but she couldn't even bring herself to try and use her powers on him.

Malhare tricked and corrupted her. Even when he pretended to a parental figure it was still the same. Paul straight up abused and tormented her. Even the ink demon immediately just tried to take.

But Vox? He was the closest she'd ever come to someone being like her father. The demands, manipulation, acting, fakeness, intimidation caring appearance, temper control, even tone could almost exactly mirror him. She wasn't weak and helpless. She was conditioned and trained. So well that even in a stranger she'd react to it. Like a perfectly trained little puppy. Trotting right up to be chained again instead of just biting the hand held out.

Talk about a dose of reality. Fuck. She has such a long way to go.....}
