Meeting the Puppet
We heard the bell ring. I pulled my head away from Freddy and looked in his eyes.
" I have to go Freddy. The bell rang and Mike will have to take me back home. "
" I know dear. I just wish I could be with you. "
" I'll be back tomorrow Freddy I promise. "
" Okay. "
He squeezed me one more time and then let go. I waved at him as I left. I walked through the door and saw Goldie and Foxy standing there.
" Freddy's all fixed up. He's as good as new and I retrieved my memories about him. "
" Good. Mike is outside waiting for ye. "
" Thank you both. "
I hugged them and started to walk to the parking lot. As I passed by the prize room I felt a weird vibe. It didn't feel right. I stopped walking and looked around. Nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary. I heard music playing. I looked toward the prize corner. I saw the handle of the jack in the box turning. I walked closer and then...
" Pop goes the Weasel! "
Nothing popped out. The top came off, but nothing popped out but strings. I looked into the box and didn't see anything.
" Hello there~ "
I turned around and saw a guy standing behind me. He had black hair with pale skin. He was wearing black pants with strips on the end and black heeled shoes. He was wearing a coat that separated at his waist the coat was a button up and he was wearing a black shirt under it. He had black eyes with white pupils and red dots on his cheeks with purple stips going down his face while a mask like the puppets was in his hand. ( Like the photo at the very top. )
" What are you doing here? I believe the bell rang a few seconds ago. What's a pretty doll like you still doing here? "
" You're..."
' He looks like the puppet for a reason. '
" You're the puppet. "
" That I am. May I ask who you are doll? "
" Y/n. Nightguard. I was night guard before and I still am now. "
" Oh? So you are the one that was basically shipped away and brainwashed? "
" Yes. Yes, I am. "
" How are you not cowering in fear? Or at least questioning how the puppet is human? "
" Like I said I was the security guard before. I'm a tough cookie. I'm remembering everything bit by bit. I remember the old animatronics as well. "
" I see. So why do you still have this job? You could have quit. "
He got closer to my face with a slight frown on his face with his curious eyes.
" Because the original animatronics are my friends. I'm going to help them. "
" Hmm. I like you. You're brave, but a little naive. I'll have to keep you around for a while. "
" I plan on staying around with or without your help. Now if you'll excuse me Mike is waiting outside. "
I tried to get around him but he stopped me by grabbing my arm. I turned towards him and glared at him. His fingers were holding my arm in a tight grip.
" You were also the one Vincent obsessed over. "
I felt my whole body pale at the mention of his name.
" H-How do you know about Vincent? "
" That's a question for another time. For now, you must leave. As you said Mike is outside. "
He let go of my arm and disappeared. I looked around and he wasn't around. I looked back at the Pop the Weasel Box. It was closed. I took the handle and turned it. A weasel didn't pop out, but a puppet did.
" Sly fox. "
I walked away and towards the front door. I saw a man standing there. He had blonde hair and dark blue eyes with a kind smile. I walked out of the building and both Mike and the stranger noticed me.
" Hey, Y/n. "
" Hey, Mike. Who's this? "
" This is my cousin Jeremy Fitzgerald. Jeremy this is Y/n. "
" Oh! So this is Y/n? "
Mike blushed and punched Jeremy on his shoulder.
" Shut up. "
Jeremy and I laughed. I held my hand out and shook Jeremy's hand.
" Nice to meet you, Jeremy. "
" Nice to finally meet you too Y/n. " Jeremy said with emphasis on the ' finally '.
I giggled again and we talked for a while. Jeremy said his goodbye later and walked into the building. I got on Mike's motorcycle and he drove us home. Once we got home I went up to my room and changed into something more...comfortable.
I jumped on the bed and curled into my pillows and blankets. Sleep coming quickly.
