Funtime Freddy's P.O.V

Night: 7

Time: 12:30 a.m.

"Do you see it?" Asked Foxy. "I think I do." I said while trying to look over the buildings. In the distance, I could see a sign that said "Candy's Burgers and Fries" above the place. It was identical in design of our place, but not exact. "This is the place." I said. We both walked through the parking lot to get to the entrance. We didn't have trouble getting spotted since no one was really out at this time. Not to mention we took a way that didn't involve us getting easily spotted if people were out. We approached the door as I looked inside to see the place through the glass door, and check if anybody was there. The lights were on and I didn't see any humans around. "Alright! Lets see if anyone is home." I said raising my hand. I knocked as I waited a couple seconds. The door opened but I didn't see anyone; I looked at Foxy confused out of my mind. "Hey! Down here!" Said a weird voice. I looked down to see a penguin animatronic. He was so small that it was easy to miss him. "You Mr. Funtime Freddy and Miss. Funtime Foxy?" He asked. "Its just Funtime Freddy and Funtime Foxy." I corrected him. "Whats so funtime then?" He asked. I didn't know if he was trying to joke, but nobody laughed; just awkward silence. "Right.... show me your blue prints." He said. I gave him our blue prints since he needed them to conform we were who we said we were. "Alright! Follow me inside!" He said. Foxy looked at me. "Guess it all checks out." She said. We both stepped inside as we followed him. The place looked nice, It wasn't better than ours, but it wasn't worse either. I was just surprised that they didn't hate our place since we probably have competition with other animatronic restaurants; including this one. We walked into what look liked the main area; the tables looked like something that would be at a fancy restaurant, I don't think the owners even bought this stuff. We walked to a table that was close to the stage, as me and Foxy sat down. The penguin pulled out a piece of paper and pen, most likely to take our order. "Now welcome to 'Candy's Burgers and Fries: a place where kids and... oh shit my bad." He said. "I was doing the wrong introduction. Anyways, I'm your waiter, The Penguin. You can ask me any questions about something you need at anytime." He said. So what can I take for your drinks?" "Hmm. I'll take coke." I said. "Same here." Said Foxy. "Alright! I'll be right back!" He said while walking away; more like waddling to be exact. "The animatronic's here are actually a lot nicer here than what I thought originally." Said Foxy. "Well, we've seen only one, so we don't know how the rest our yet." I said. "I just hope they don't hate us." "I'm pretty sure your shadow did the best to let them know we're fine." Said Foxy. "Lets just make a good impression on ourselves so we don't get hated on." I said. I could see at the corner of me eye The Penguin with the drinks on a tray; walking over to our table. "Alright! I Got the drin-" I said until the drinks fell of the tray. He justed stared at the broken glass on the ground, as me and Foxy looked at each other. "Nevermind..." He responded. "What are you doing?" Said another animatronic coming from the kitchen. It looked like chimpanzee animatronic, it seemed every animatronic was a weird design choice for the animal for whatever reason. "It was an accident Chester!" Said The Penguin. "Just get some more drinks while I take their orders for the food." Said Chester. "Ok. Just don't tell Candy alright?" He pleaded. "Fine. I won't." He responded. Me and Foxy were actually snickering, because it was kinda of funny. Chester walked over to our table, ready to take our order. "Sorry for him. He's always having these things happen to him." Said Chester. "Its fine." I responded. "I never thought I would see other animatronics from other restaurants." He stated. "Well same here." I agreed with him. "I have the menus for you so you can decide what you want to eat." Said Chester handing the menus. "And its all free of charge." "Well thanks!" I said. "No problem! I'll be back in a couple of minutes to take your order." He said as he walked off. "Alright what do we have on the menu tonight." I said aloud. I scammed through the menu to see what I wanted to order. There were surprisingly a lot of choices to pick, I didn't even know how they learned to cook or do this stuff. Perhaps they had a better understanding of the things humans knew. Or perhaps they were programmed with this stuff? It made me wonder why our creators didn't want us to know what humans did. Maybe because they knew we would be alive and learn; adapt, and have the desire to eradicate them. But we never wanted to. Because we all knew the consequences if we tried to take matters in our own hands, it was part of our programming. And programming can be overwritten, it can be changed. But we choose to not take that path, because we do not want that path, a path to be free. So why did this mystery animatronic want to take over this world? What were his motivations? What caused him to draw a diabolical path. What pain did he feel the need to return the favor? I didn't understand why 'he' wanted to reign supreme on all. As if he was the one destined to be leader. Why was he doing this? "Freddy you there?" "Huh?" I said hearing Foxy's voice. I was lost in a deep train of thought again. I couldn't get this stuff off my mind. It seemed to always follow where I go. I could never get it out of my head, maybe because is was the idea of what the aftermath would be if we didn't prevent this. "I'm sorry. I just can't get this stuff off my head." I said. "You mean the whole situation with this mystery animatronic?" She asked. I nodded in agreement. "We have Shadow. What more can we ask for?" Said Foxy. "The chances of our survival." I said. Foxy didn't responded to my answer, perhaps she had missed that factor? "We are robots. We're replaceable." She said at last. "Not always." I said. "Sure, they can rebuild us, but sometimes they choose not to. And we could be considered technically dead if our memory chip gets destroyed." "So you're worried about this animatronic succeeding?" She asked. "Yes." I said while sighing. "Alright guys, you know what your ordering yet?" Asked Chester while walking over to us. "I'll take a hamburger." I said to him. "I'll take the same." Said Foxy. "Why she's ordering the same things I order?" I thought. "Alright! Your food should be ready as soon as possible." Said Chester. "Alright. Thanks!" I said. "No problem." Said Chester before walking away. "Hey Foxy! How come you've been ordering the same things I order?" I asked. Foxy had a face for a moment that seemed to say she was kinda embarrassed, and followed with her blushing. She looked away, most likely because I noticed. "I-I didn't really know what to order." She responded. S"o I decided to get what you got." It was answer, but I felt it wasn't the real answer. "Foxy." I said. "Do you love me?" I asked. "Alright! I got your food!" Said Chester walking over with our food. He placed our food on the plates in front of us, which gave me the opportunity to check out our meal. They were surprisingly big burgers, but that wasn't gonna be a problem. After all we aren't human, and that was one thing that was beneficial to us. "By the way. Candy and his sister are about to put on a show for you both." Said Chester. "Oh?" I said. I was surprised they were actually doing something for us, guess it shows they are really nice. Or it was my shadows idea? "And they are about to start right now." He said while facing the stage. Me and Foxy turned to face the stage, and right then the curtains opened, as there were two animtronics on the stage. Both that were animatronics resembling cats. The choices for the animatronics were very peculiar for this location. "The blue one is Candy. And the purple one is his sister Cindy." Stated Chester. "So they're gonna perform while we eat for entertainment?" I asked "Yep!" Responded Chester. "You sure we can eat this?" Asked Foxy concerned. "I don't see anything stopping us." I responded. "Well, lets hope our insides don't get screwed up."

Five minutes later

Candy and his sister did a great performance while we ate, and the food was amazing; everything about this place was amazing . "God that was amazing!" I exclaimed to Chester. "Well, since they perform for kids everyday, they can use their skills for other uses. "I HAVE YOUR DRINKS!" Yelled The Penguin while running over to our table. "Chester you should've been back by now!" Said Chester. "I'm sorry! I was talking to Old Candy, Rat, and Blank." Said Penguin. "I told you not to talk to them!" Said Chester. "Chester its not his fault." Said Candy walking off the stage with his sister. "Penguin. What did we say about talking to them." He said. "Not to talk to them." Responded Penguin. "Right. Remember to ignore them if they try to talk to you." Said Candy. "Who's Old Candy, Rat, and Blank?" I whispered to Chester. "Just some old animatronics that hate us for taking their place." He whispered back. Him saying this was reminding me once of the mysterious animatronic, and how he wanted to replace humans with animatronics. He could possibly try to take control of existing animatronics under his control. "Thanks for having us eat here." Said Foxy. "Well, thank you both." Said Candy. "Its nice that we have other animatronics that are fond of each other." "Well, I'm glad us animatronics are not against each other." I said. There was an awkward silence after I said that. And that gave me the thought that it wasn't necessary, Only, I was proven wrong. Candy and the others laughed as me and Foxy joined in. "Oh god! I love this guy!" Said Candy while patting my back. "Yeah." I responded. "Anyways. I hope you both enjoyed your time here." He responded. "I can gladly say we did." I responded back. "I wish though you both can stay longer, but we have to clean up before six or else the workers are gonna question why its set for a dinner." He said. "Its fine." I responded. "Hey! Maybe you guys can come back another time. If you're not busy of course." Said Candy. "We'll see about that." I responded. "Well take care." Said Candy while holding out his hand to shake. "You too."I responded as we shook hands. We left the room as Chester called out "have a nice night!" "You too!" I said back. Me and Foxy went to the front and opened the doors, and went outside. Though for some reason the ground and sky looked different. There was white stuff on the ground, almost like ice. And tiny pieces of it were falling from the sky; I never knew this was a thing to be honest. "OH MY GOD! ITS SNOWING!" Yelled Foxy. "If you're trying to get us caught, then you're doing a good job." I said. "Freddy you don't know what snow is?" Asked Foxy. "No I don't." I responded. Its super fun! How about I show ya?" Asked Foxy. "I don't know. How about we g-" "Come on! I'll show you!" Said Foxy grabbing my hand and pulling me, while cutting me off. "Ok! Guess we're gonna be gone longer then what I thought!" I said aloud. "Lets just hope nothing bad happened while we were gone."
