Bryan

Today is a new day, hopefully it’s as normal as it can get. 

I take that back…

As soon as I walk through the doors, Helpy runs up to me and hides behind me. Freddy runs in and begins to yell at her, then he tells me that she did something to the portal that managed to confuse even Molten, who messes with the portal constantly.

 “Show me.” I tell him, he nods to me and we head to the portal. Molten is looking down into the portal which had a red glow coming from it.

He looks up at me and then back at the portal with a growl like noise coming from him. I looked at it and then looked down at Helpy who was still clinging to my leg. She looks up at me and shakes her head, oil tears falling down her face.

 I crouch down and put my hand down in between her ears. I then pick her up and she latches onto my shirt.

“I didn’t do it, I didn’t. I promise.” She whispers to me. I wiped the oil tears away, not noticing the way Molten and Freddy were looking at the two of us.

 “I know.” I tell her, she smiles and I set her down. I look at the portal, which is now calling out to me, reaching out to grab my soul. I either get multiple questions thrown at me or I can do something really stupid.

I’m going with both.

“I think we should stay away from the portal, something is wrong.” The three bears all looked at me in shock.

Molten glares at me and then looks startled. I tilt my head, then suddenly I’m falling.

“Bryan!” 

Helpy

My eyes widen as Bryan falls. I lurch forward in an attempt to get him but I’m grabbed by my scruff.

I’m turned around and I’m looking directly at Molten. He looks back at Freddy who was leaving the portal room to most likely get help. I feel myself being lifted and I’m suddenly put on Moltens shoulder.

Freddy returns with AI and Springtrap, surprisingly at his side. Lefty was behind them with Happy Frog and Foxy.

We catch them up on what just happened. Springtrap walks up to the portal and looks down into the portal, when a hand reaches out and grabs him. He is dragged down but AI lurches forward and grabs the rotting rabbit's hand. 

 I look at Molten and he looks back at me just as both gold colored rabbits vanish into the portal. I nod at him and the two of us are dropping through the black pit. Ignoring the shouts of surprise, from those still standing above.

When we landed we were standing in a childish room. AI and Springtrap were trapped in a cage, they noticed us and AI shushed us. The other four landed behind us. 

 Suddenly a table appeared and sitting there at the table was what looked like Bryan. He was looking down. His hands were black claws. 

I hop off of Molten’s shoulder and walk up to him. “Not again.” Molten growls, recognizing the Bryan copycat as ‘Evil Bryan’. 

“Not again? What the actual hell are you talking about?” Trash rabbit snaps out after him and his clone were let out of their cage.

“This isn't Bryan…” I announce. “This is ‘Evil Bryan’.”

“I go by Vile.” He says looking up, his red eyes glowing. “Try and catch me!” He stands up and we are all flung out of the portal. He runs out of the portal room and the first one to run after the copycat was AI.

Oh God what have we gotten ourselves into.

Vile

Bryan truly was a fool to try and not let me have my fun. I sat on the main stage, with Ballora standing in front of Baby protectively. 

“Who are you?” She continues to glare, “Because I know that you aren’t Bryan.”

“Vile!” I grumble when Freddy, Lefty, Happy Frog, AI, Springtrap, Molten, Helpy, and Foxy come into the room and I’m grabbed. “How do we get Bryan back?” The brown star bear glares down at me.

“He doesn’t want to…” Everyone froze at my words. Rockstar Freddy let’s go.

“Why?” The small pink and white bear looks up at me. 

“Not him exactly but, ah never mind I’ll try and get him back.” I begin, “Waaait.. Why should I help you when you guys don’t even care! All you guys do is ruin our Fun!” I stand up and stomp my foot in anger.

I shake in anger. “Not Fair, Not Fair, NOT FAIR!” I shout out as tears fall down my face. 

I cross my arms and grasp them with my claws, “You always ruin the fun, you always ruin the fun, you always ruin the fun. Trying to keep us locked away just so you can use us as puppets.” I collapse onto my knees.

I take a deep breath and stand up. “Apologies!” I say smiling at the all equally concerned animatronics.

“Vile? What was that about? What’s not fair? Who’s using you?” Baby asks.

I just look at her and frown. “What do you mean? I don’t understand?” 

Ballora

He was just panicking and now he doesn’t know what he was panicking about. I looked back at AI and he waved me over.

I walk over to him, making sure to continue to listen to the others try to get him to answer.

“Ballora, something odd is going on…” He tells me, ears pinned back. Confusion evident in his robotic eyes.

Before we can talk about what’s going on Vile suddenly runs off, thankfully the animatronics who aren’t here are offline. I run off after the unstable man, hearing three sets of feet run after me. 
We ended up having to split up. As I walk I swear that I can hear a slight ticking of a clock. I decided to try and ignore it. As I go forward more, the clock gets louder.

 In front of me is Vile, sitting against a wall. “Vile?”

He looks up at me and then looks away. “I’m done playing, you can have him back.” He says as he stands up and begins heading in the direction that the portal is in. “Vile, are you okay?” I reach out to him, but I freeze as my hand glitches. I look at it with wide eyes and shake my head, I set my hand on his shoulder.

 “Yeah… I’ll be back. Ballora… do you believe in other dimensions?” He asked me. Other dimensions… I do. I do believe in other dimensions, especially since coming into contact with the portal, and the fact- I… I can’t think.

“Yes, why?” I ask him, concerned. I stare into his red eyes, as he looks forward as if he sees something that I can’t.

“I wanted to be in control because I need to warn you, all of you. He’s not happy, he’s managed to connect our dimension to others, now the people from those dimensions might be able to come here.” He explains.

“Who is He?” He looks nervous at my question as we continue to walk to the portal.

“He… I can’t remember but I know that he’s bad, Very bad. Do you hear it?” He asks me as the door opens.

“The clock?” I question him and he nods. 

“Goodbye for now, Ballora. Nice to know that you are a part of the party now…”  He hops into the portal and out comes Bryan, who immediately collapses.

I help Bryan up and he immediately begins apologizing. I told him not to worry about it and that the others were worried about him. He runs out to tell the other that he’s okay.

I look over at the portal as the clock gets louder. " I can hear you..."
