FNAF: Sister Location

Research

The next morning, after I dropped Jasmine off at school, I let my curiosity get the best of me and I decided to do a quick Google search on Afton Robotics. As Tyler stated, it was founded by William Afton in the mid 60s. It was created to help launch Fredbear's Family Diner and its bear and bunny duo, Fredbear and Bonnie.

Also as Tyler stated, every single robot in every single Fazbear location was created by Afton Robotics, though looking at reports shows that that's debatably not the best thing. With as often as it was reported that the robots did everything from crushing a child's skull to breaking an employee's arms and leg, it seemed clear to me that these machines were stronger and deadlier than it would've seemed.

That's when I stumbled across an article that caught my attention. It was posted in the 70s, and it stated that it was rumored that Afton Robotics was planning on working on a new, never-before-seen restaurant, but that it never officially opened up. The kicker? It was reported to be named "Circus Baby's Pizza World".

"In other news: The grand opening of Circus Baby's World has apparently been cancelled due to reported gas leaks in the building. Sources close to the establishment question the report, saying that the strange activity around the area at night suggest something else is to blame.

One local is quoted as saying, "Everything just stopped. There was so much excitement built around this place opening and then they just stopped talking about it. There was only a handful of people that ever got a look at the inside, kids from here and there, making sure everything worked right, you know? I guess they weren't quite as ready and they thought they were!"

A tenant from across the street claims to have witnessed a large group of cars surrounding the building during the night, and large pieces of equipment being taken out of the building under tarps. A few weeks later the building was for sale. There is no comment yet from the local entrepreneur who financed the venture.

If anything, it was just too soon for such an ambitious venture. There is still a bright future for Circus Baby, so be watching for her to appear at a neighborhood party near you!"

So, it was planned for Circus Baby's Pizza World to set up shop in the 70s, only to never open due to reported gas leaks? And what's all this about groups of cars and equipment under tarps? Something's pretty fishy about all this...and I think I know where I can go for more info.

I pulled up in front of the police station and walked inside, where I found a familiar face behind the counter.

"Alice?" he asked in a surprised look. "What's wrong? Is everything okay?"

"Everything's fine, Jack," I replied. "I was just wondering if you could help me get some info."

"On what?"

"On Afton Robotics."

"Afton...that sounds familiar."

"It's the company that designed all the animatronics for the Fazbear Entertainment restaurants."

"Oh, yeah! Including the place you're working at now, right?"

"Right. But something doesn't seem right about it."

"What do you mean?"

"I did some research and...well...I get the feeling there's more than meets the eye. Like something shady is going on."

"What, do you want to file a report?"

"No, no. I just want to see if there are any records about the company that can clear some things up for me."
