Sinakumi: "Sailor, you're driving a bit too fast..."

Sailor: "No one's noticing."

Sinakumi: "...When you actually run over someone-"

Sailor: "Okay! Okay! I'm slowing down."

Sinakumi and Sailor drive through town; everyone staring at the Ferrari. They park in front of the hotel and race to the elevator. Once they were in their room (with Sinakumi falling behind, panting), as expected, Vincent and Aurum were there shocked, as Sailor burst open the door. Aurum, judging from the look on his face, figured that the girls found out what happened to the guys. And he looked so guilty about it. Vincent's face was stoic with a hint of sadness. Sailor, on the other hand, looked like she was gonna blow.

Vincent: "If I remember correctly, you made the exact same face when we left Sinakumi at the pizzeria."

Sailor: "What. The heck. HAPPENED. TO THE GUYS...?!"

She grabbed Vincent by the collar and shook him back and forth like crazy.

Vincent: "S-S-Sai...S-S-Sailor...!"

Sailor: "YOU. I. THE GUYS. WHY WON'T YOU TELL ME?!"

Vincent: "S-S-Stop...shaking...me...!"

Sinakumi: "Sailor! Sailor! Don't do that-!"

Sailor: "WHY'RE THEY SO TOTALLED! ALL YOU PEOPLE HAD TO DO WAS JUST PUT THEM AWAY-NO! HOW DID THEY GET THEIR HANDS ON THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE?! WE SET THEM FREE!"

Vincent: "S-Sailor...about that-"

Sailor: "HOW DID THEY FIND THE GUYS?! WHO DID THIS TO THEM?! Obviously the camera system had that online-CAWTHON!!! He runs the game within the pizzeria AND HE DESIGNED THE CAMERA SYSTEM!!!"

Sailor, who was lifting Vincent 3 inches off the floor, threw him to the ground and stomp/sprinted away, into her room. Sinakumi could hear the clacking of keys as Sailor busily types away on her computer.

Aurum: "Well...that escalated quickly..."

Sinakumi: "Curious..."

Aurum: "What is it...?"

Aurum wobbly hobbles over to Vincent, who was dizzily trying to get back on his feet, while trying catch his breath from being thrown to the ground by surprisingly strong Sailor. Aurum, with what little help he could do, plus Sinakumi, get Vincent on the couch.

Vincent: "What...was your question...?"

Sinakumi: "Sailor asked how the pizzeria was able to get the guys back in there..."

Aurum: "Urgh..."

Sinakumi: "S-Sorry...just asking. I mean, we did free them last game. So for them to be back in the pizzeria...and so brutally...*yawn*"

Vincent: "*sigh*...What happened to that caffeine rush that lasted the entire week last game? You're now completely relaxed. Reminder, this is still a survival for you both. Off to bed. Again."

Sinakumi: "What? No, no, I'll be fine. Sailor will still be up...and I'll...keep up with...her..."

Something touches Sinakumi's cheek. It was warm, soft, and alluring. She was going to fall to sleep really fast. She groggily puts her hand on whatever was on her cheek, her eyes barely keeping open. It turns out to be Aurum's hand.

Aurum: "You're not strong all the time, Sina. You might not want to admit it, but it's true. Rely on us a bit more. We'll watch Sailor until she crashes."

Sinakumi: "I...might not be strong...but that doesn't mean...I don't have strength..."

She meekly pushes Aurum's hand away. But she doesn't let go of it. Sitting on the couch, Aurum scoots next to her, not letting go either. Pretty soon, Sinakumi's head lolls onto Aurum's shoulder, then deafly falls to his lap, as she involuntarily snuggles up to his body. Still holding his hand. Vincent chuckles at the scene. Aurum's face had certainly gotten more color then his usual pale. Embarrassed, he pushes up his sunglasses, that covered his pitch black eyes and white-light pupils, and turned down to face cuddling Sinakumi.

Vincent: "She has you wrapped around her little finger, Aurum."

Aurum: "...No...she's just..."

Vincent: "Strong? No, weak but with strength, as Author calls it."

Aurum: "...somewhere...here..."

Aurum's other hand seemed to have traveled up to his chest, where he had been squeezing his shirt collar. Once he had noticed, his hand flew back down before Vincent saw.

*****

Sinakumi: "Aw...I'm...swo...sweepy...."

Sinakumi who was abruptly woken up by Sailor, who lifted her off the ground by HER shirt collar and v-neck vest, screaming something about her being too young, which she didn't understand, and too bad that Vincent and Aurum weren't there to fill her in. They had a big argument on the way down to the lobby.

Sailor: "I. AM NOT. Leaving you in the same room. WITH A GUY. AGAIN."

Sinakumi: "I dunno wha you talking about..."

Sailor: "Of course you flipping don't, you where sleeping on the couch next to Aurum."

Sinakumi: "...Wha about ih...?"

Sailor: "You. Aurum. Hugging. On the couch. Next to each other. URGH. Both you and Aurum were laying on the couch and he was hugging you from behind and-YOU KNOW WHAT?! FORGET IT! QUIT LOOKING LIKE YOU DON'T CATCH MY DRIFT!"

Sinakumi: "...I can't...sorry...I don' get it..."

Sailor: "SNAP OUT OF IT!"

Sinakumi wondered if elevator grounds were soft...

*****

Sinakumi was sleeping in the passenger seat of Sailor's Ferrari, while Sailor, herself, was clawing into the driving wheel, grumbling about Sinakumi's safety. After awhile, Sinakumi was, once again, awoken by Sailor, except, this time, a ton more nicer.

Sinakumi: "Where...where are we...?"

Sailor: "The pizzeria. Let's see the animatronics."

Sinakumi trudged up behind Sailor, whom she couldn't believe was still wide awake. She opens the door for Sinakumi, who was almost about to run into it, and steps inside behind her. Sinakumi's eyes flew open, wide awake, in both horror, astonishment, and surprise.

Sinakumi: "What...what did they do to the...?!"

Sailor: "Let's just...let's just..."

???: "Will it just be the 2 of you?"

Sailor/Sinakumi: "...?!"

Sailor and Sinakumi direct their attention immediately to the voice near them. It was robotic and deceiving. For a split second, judging by the style and the accent of the voice, they thought it was Bonnie, brainwashed. But when they turned to face the lively familiar voice...they were half right.

Toy Bonnie: "Hello, I'm Toy Bonnie."

Sailor/Sinakumi: "...T-Toy..."

Toy Bonnie: "Welcome to the new and improved Freddy Fazbear Pizza!"

Toy Bonnie looked pretty impressive even in his animatronic mode. He leads them to a table, where he says that they were reserved by an important customer of the company.

Toy Bonnie: "You know, you 2 should definitely live around to see the day. Some say they are, but you never know, right?"

Sailor: "...Hm? Is this some sort of advertisement...?"

Sinakumi: "Hey, look!"

They later figure out that 'important customer of the company' was Vincent, who was also accompanied by Aurum, who refused to look at Sinakumi.

Sinakumi: "Oh, Vincent, Aurum."

Vincent: "Author, a pleasure to see you have rested. Comfortable, your sleep?"

Vincent asks innocently with a chaste smile on his face, making Sailor grind her teeth loudly that Sinakumi tapped her shoulder to stop. Aurum's face lit up like a Christmas tree on fire.

Sinakumi: "It was comfortable...and warm...and nice...and...well, the best in the game, so far."

Vincent: "'So far', hmm? Pray tell, what could possibly make such a night better-"

Sailor: "Calm your hormones, Zyg, this is Sina's safety, you Nutella ganache toaster."

Vincent: "Nutella...?"

Aurum: "Um..."

Sinakumi: "Anyway, we just saw some phony Bonnie greeting us to flipping dinner. And in the back storage...? I think that's where the guys were."

Aurum: "You found the guys?!"

Sailor: "You mean you guys didn't know where they were?"

Aurum: "No! We just saw THOSE...'guys'...um, in model mode, erm, as I think you guys call it...TAKE THEM! They just..."

Aurum shivers, staring down at the table. Sinakumi reaches out and places her hand on one of Aurum's clenched fists.

Sinakumi: "Were...they the ones who did this to you? Back in the first game?"

Vincent: "I don't know much about the game within the pizzeria, as you all know, but these replacements came in supposidly when this place opened up."

Sailor: "Did the clerk say something about a 'grand re-opening'? Why's everyone here and...you know."

Vincent: "Starting from yesterday, when you girls came back, was the beginning of this 'grand re-opening' week. There's a party coming up at the end of the week, celebrating it."

Sailor: "Now that makes a whole lot more sense. But I get what you're now wondering, Vincent..."

Vincent: "You too, Pisces?"

Sinakumi and Aurum stare at Sailor and Vincent. They apparently caught something they didn't catch. Once they were done speaking among themselves, they turned to Aurum and Sinakumi.

Sailor: "We think...the replacements were already made when the guys were still...you know, onstage."

Sinakumi: "The replacements...the guys...got that."

Sailor: "Yeah, and we also are almost certain that they did the same thing to the guys as they did to Aurum."

Aurum: "How do you know...?"

Vincent: "Pisces said that Toy Bonnie said something about 'living to see the day' and 'some say they are, but you never know'."

Sailor: "They know who we are. They're mocking us. Seeing if we're actually gonna live to the 5th or 6th night."

Vincent: "I have a theory that the 'some' part  of his sentence means the guys. And the 'you never know' is indicating that they're 'new' and that they'll be harder to get pass."

Sinakumi: "So...putting 'the guys' and 'harder to get pass' means..."

Aurum: "They know we're going to try to save them and we might die in the process...?"

Sinakumi: "What...?"

Sailor: "Yeah..."

A devious glint flashed in Sailor's eyes. Vincent's eyes followed. Aurum and Sinakumi both pretty much knew that face.

Sailor: "Well...they don't know who they're talkin' about."

Vincent: "A challenge, indeed. Very interesting."

Sinakumi/Aurum: "Oh gosh..."
