50k! : Why Do You Want To Stay?

Start from the beginning
                                    

She still thought about that time when she saw the yellow rabbit suit, she shuddered slightly at the thought. But she never saw it again. Overall, it mostly left her mind. Maybe it was someone trying to scare her and Caz. She wasn't sure, but whoever or whatever it was, it was really really creepy.

Summer was over, and she knew she wouldn't see her new friends much. On the first days of school, she would still sometimes play with them at the pizzeria. But slowly, as time passed on, the play dates would shorten and become more sparse.

They were sad about her not coming over that much anymore when she brought the bad news. But they also deemed her good luck in school which she happily returned.

She promised she would make sure to see them every week. And during the next summer, they would have more adventures together. That was enough for them, right?

She tried asking them if they could meet up at the park, her neighborhood, her house, or their houses. She even brought up how her parents could talk to theirs to plan a big sleepover.

But they would always look at her weirdly, frowns present on their faces, and sadness and confusion in their eyes. She didn't know what was wrong, but they never answered her. She never brought it up again, not wanting to upset them.

She didn't have many friends in school, and they were not as fun as her little group. She would do projects with them, talk to them in recess, and they would play games together. But it never felt the same. Something was just... different about the others.

She felt bad for not having much fun with her friends in school, but she couldn't help it. The ones at the pizzeria are just so fun to be around, they make the pizzeria feel shiny and fresh and everything seems brighter when she is with them. She yearned to see them every school day.

She did feel that way, until she got a new friend.

His name was Amber, a wild boy who just appeared in her life oneday when they had a science project together. She and Amber never really talked before that. Mainly because her classmates considered him to be one of the more... interesting children.

He had a strange love for ghosts and paranormal mysteries alike. When they did the project together, he rambled on and on with bright green eyes about makeshift spirits. When he saw that (y/n) showed mild interest in the topic, he immediately considered her to be his best friend.

And then they were inseparable after that. If (y/n) was there, Amber wasn't too far behind. Telling jokes or ghost stories while the girl would laugh and listen. Many students would stare at them, and Amber would glare back.

(Y/n) liked Amber, he wasn't mean and he had a great talent in storytelling. He was very animated when he spoke about the things he enjoyed, and he bravely stood up for himself and her when someone judged either of them.

They would go on cool fake ghost adventures together every recess. They would sneak back into the building and go into places where ghost rumors reside. Like the bathrooms, the teacher's lounge and such. They never found anything of interest. But even so, it was very fun!

The only problem was, the more and more she was with him, the less she saw her other friends. Amber became a big part of her day, even after school he would try and hang out with her at her house or some place close by nearly all the time.

She had a great idea to solve the problem though! One day, she asked Amber to go with her to the pizzeria. It would be cool for the boy and her other friends to meet up!

She definitely thought it was a great idea, until she saw a hesitant look pass through Amber's eyes. He rubbed his brown locks together and averted his eyes to the side. "I don't know, I heard bad things about that place."

(Y/n) stared, confused at his words. What possibly could go wrong at Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria? It was full of fun and fantasy. Amber saw her confusion and told her a dark story of what happened to the restaurant when it was brand-new, many, many years ago.

It was a story about five kids disappearing, and the last they were seen was in that pizzeria. He said that people believe that those kids were stuffed in the animatronics, and that their spirits still rest there, in the building.

(Y/n) could tell that he was anxious about going in there. Most of his ghost stories were lighthearted and fun, but that's because they were never real people.

(Y/n) managed to convince the green-eyed boy by telling him that they could find a corny ghost in there, haunting the pizza and diner. Amber grew excited at the mention of a fake spirit, but you could still see the fear and hesitance in his eyes. He finally agreed to come. He thought that the ghost rumors probably weren't true.

He was very wrong.

(Y/n) was ecstatic about him meeting her good friends. And later that day, she and Amber entered the old pizzeria. (Y/n) tried to find her buddies, but they were not present, which was strange because they always seemed to be in the pizzeria. She was a little crestfallen at that.

The good news was that the pizzeria became her and Amber's hang-out spot. Amber liked the place, it had cool animatronics and nice greasy pizza. He claimed he's never been there before. So it became part of their routine to go there after school most weekdays.

Amber always came by bike, whoever his parents were, they were never there. (Y/n) was kind of curious about who they were, but she was too afraid to ask.

Her parents quickly became acquainted with Amber, and they didn't mind him all that much. They trusted him enough to leave them alone in the pizzeria with some cash to buy food. The two of them quickly became regulars there, and the employees never seemed to question why they didn't have parents with them.

But every time she went to the pizzeria, her other friends were never there. It was just Amber, the only warm and familiar face she recognized. They would hunt ghosts amongst the crowd in the same places she used to play with the others.

She felt sad, why would they never come anymore? Maybe they didn't want to see her anymore because she was with Amber? Maybe they found the person she replaced? She didn't know.

The pizzeria was still the same old and slightly rugged pizzeria when her and Amber were together. Unlike the polished shininess when she was with her friends. Foxy never got fixed to his mint condition again when it was just her and the green-eyed boy. She was so confused on what happened, on what changed.

But... Amber was warm and not cold to the touch. She could be with Amber in school, outside, and at her house. Amber and her were always together, and even if she got a new friend she was sure he wouldn't leave her like the others did so suddenly, without saying a word.

She felt angry in a way, towards her summer friends for disappearing without telling a word to her. Why would they do this?

It was like this for a while, just her and Amber on corny ghost adventures in the same old attractions, over the sounds of singing and speaking animatronics and screaming children. Under the harsh lighting and plastic tables. It was the same routine.

Until one little mischievous idea set the course for everything.

This one ended up being too long for it to be a finale 😭

I HOPE that the next part will be the finale! And that's when things start going to motion. This was kind of the introduction to the main conflict. 🤯
And yes this introduces Amber as a character.

Ik I said that this has no connection with the other story, but Amber is kind of a side character and it'd be cool to add him a lil backstory. This does take place in the same universe as GE but Amber will never mention any the events that will take place in the finale of this special.

So this doesn't have to be readable to understand GE better!

Sorry for not posting last week! I was real busy! 😬😬
