William stood in Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. More specifically, he stood in Sammy and Laurence's office with the two co-founders with him. "So what's all this about?" William asks. "Well, first off..." Laurance started. "We've finally gotten the robbery sorted out. Gonna take a while to rebuild, but we have a few ideas we wanna run by you first." The man explains. William couldn't help but pick up on a strange tone to his voice. "Well, sounds good to me! So, what's your fist idea?" 

"Well, we could just start from scratch. Use the money to buy new stuff, build new animatronics, it's that simple." Laurance said casually. "But that takes time. Meaning, Freddy's would be a dead source of income and our employees would likely quit if not given a paid leave. So that's currently our least preferred route." He explained. "Hmmm, I see where you're coming from... Let me hear your other ideas." William says, deciding to hear the full scope of options before giving a full opinion. 

"Well, we could use a few extra things from the other locations, then fill in the rest of the missing pieces with the insurance. That way we can get the place back open faster, but then if something breaks in one of the other locations we'll be low on supplies." Samuel explains. "Hmmm... Not bad... anything else?" William asks. "Well, there is one more option." Laurance chimed in, that tone is his voice leaking through again.

"You could just return everything."

...

"What...?"

William kept a poker face but his heart was racing. How did they figure it out?

"The cameras didn't pick up much the cops could use, but I noticed something." Laurance started. "The masks worn didn't show their lips, which was a weird choice. The sun glasses kind of made sense but it felt unnecessary with how many there were. That is until we noticed something. The masks didn't have two eye holes, just one long opening they could look out. Re-watching the footage I noticed that one of these criminals just so happened to look a little... purple?" Laurance monologued with a cheeky grin on his face.

Damn it all.

How could he not think of that?

"Well, I-" "We aren't gonna turn you in, William." Samuel says. William stares at him, confused. "We got the insurance money! Now we just pretend to buy new stuff, bring it all back with a fresh coat of paint and move on! Ehh?" The man, also having a grin on his face suggested.

William tried to speak, but felt the words catch in his throat.

They got him.

They found him out.

They caught him. 

And William hated it.

"... Well, I don't know about any of that..." He decided to start, nervously looking around the room. "... But... How about you both stop by Afton Robotics later, uhh... Maybe next Friday, see if I do have anything I may or may not have kept there for safe keeping...?" "Sounds wonderful!" Laurance said, sharing a chuckle with Samuel before both leaving. "See you then!"

...

William couldn't let them find out what he was really doing. More accurately, he couldn't let them figure out... and leave. He pulls out a flip phone, turning it on and typing a message into it. 

-S & L figured it out, prepare the vessels

After a few seconds, a response came through.

-K

He turned of the phone, a grim look on his face. 

This wasn't gonna be fun.
