Foxy's P.O.V. 

I glanced at the empty seat beside me. Somehow...without her....it feels so...empty...

Where is she?

"Okay, class. That's it for today. Don't forget to do your homework."

I stood up from my seat and watched as the others stood up to head for our next class. I  glanced at Bonbon and Bonnie. I gave them a questioning look. They shrugged.

Where is she?

"Calm down Foxy," Bonbon assured me.

I sighed. "But...it's the first time she didn't attend class."

"Come on. Maybe she's just sick or something. You're her childhood friend. Aren't you supposed to know what she's doing?" 

"Well...in grade school, if she's ever sick, she used to call me and tell me she won't be attending class. She always used to...used to..." I stopped talking. 

"Foxy, are  you okay?"

"Yeah...yeah...I'm fine." No matter what I told them, I knew I didn't look convincing. 

"...she used to chase after me all the time...and now...I guess I'm just not used to not being with her. It's...comforting." I tried to convince myself. No...why was I convincing myself? It's actually comforting.

"Well...maybe she's too sick to call you..haha..." Bonnie tried to lighten up the mood.

Or maybe she's a different Mangle now...

No, she regained her memories from our childhood and forgot everything in high school. So maybe she's now the real Mangle she was supposed to be.

This is all my fault...

"Don't worry Foxy. Mangle...is still Mangle...after all..."

I gulped. If she's still the Mangle I know, then why did she lie to me about Springtrap? I feel like...I don't know her anymore.

. . .

A week has passed and Mangle didn't show up in class. I tried calling her but it all directed me to voicemail. I tried coming to her house but it was locked and no one seemed to be inside.

What was actually happening?

"Bonbon...." I called out.

"Ah, yes?"

"Is Mangle having a relationship with Springtrap?"

Bonbon flinched. "Ahahaha....Foxy. Are you kidding me? Mangle and Springtrap?! No way! No way!"

I sighed. These two are really best friends....

"I saw them."

"W-what are you talking about?" Bonbon and Bonnie both flinched this time. "And I suppose you knew about it too, right Bonnie?"

"N-no!"

"You think I don't know about it?! Don't lie to me because despite Mangle's absence, I know Springtrap too hasn't been in class for a week! Why are you hiding things from me?!"

"Hey Foxy..."

"Go away Chica..." I told her before returning my glare at Bonnie and Bonbon.

"How mean! You still love that b*tch?!"

"I don't love Mangle! I'm concerned for her because she's just like my little sister! So don't ever call her a  b*tch ever again!" My glare turned to murderous. 

Where is Mangle?!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Poor Foxy. Mangle's having fun the past week, don't you know?" Chica smirked.

"F*ck off Chica," Bonbon told her.

"Oh yeah. Despite being that b*tch's best friend, you don't know what's going on with her this past week, don't you...b*tch?" Chica smirked wider.

Bonbon was about to murder her but Bonnie stopped her. "You know what?! Go mind your own sh*tty business! Don't you know?! They give one night stands in gay bars around here! Why don't you just f*cking shut up and f*cking take you attitude there where you f*cking belong you b*tch?!"

Bonnie gulped. "Ah...Bon...let's calm down okay? Okay?"

Ah...good thing I'm not on Bonbon's bad side right now.

"How dare you?!" Chica shouted. "Don't you know why Mangle was absent the past week?! Despite being a mortal enemy of that girl, even  I know that she's been flirting with Springtrap like a lovesick puppy!"

I clenched my fist. I raised my hand which was already out of control. I aimed at Chica, ready to crush her ugly face.

"WAIT JUST A SECOND!!!!!" 

I stood there, astonished. Bonnie protected Chica?! He even took my fist for her!

"What the h*ll Bonnie?! You shouldn't have taken Foxy's blow!" Bonbon screeched.

"Why? Are you concerned for me? Haha...ow, ow, ow. Foxy you sure pack a strong punch...."

"This is no time for jokes you idiot!" Bonbon and I shouted at the same time.

"Thanks for saving me handsome," Chica winked at Bonnie. I was disgusted.

"Ah...you're welcome. I know I'm handsome but please don't fall in love with me. Bonbon's already my-Ow! Ow! Hey Bonbon!!! My ear! My ear! I'm not done speaking yet!"

Bonbon let go of Bonnie's ear. I watched the scene in astonishment. "And, I didn't save you..." Bonnie continued. "Anyway, I hate you." Chica froze.

I backed away at Bonnie's cold voice. It was the first time I heard it. It was...as scary as Bonbon's normal threat.

"Then, why did you take my fist?" I asked him.

"Hahaha....I was trying to look cool in front of my Bonb-Ow! Ow!" Bonnie rubbed his ear. 

"Just kidding! I was just kidding, you know! I just thought that Chica won't be able to explain where Mangle is or why she didn't go to school this past week if you punched her face."

I blinked. "For an idiot, you are actually a smart one."

"What was that supposed to mean?!"

Bonbon walked closer to Chica. Bonnie and I watched intensely. She grabbed Chica's shoulders...and suddenly, slammed her down on the ground!

"So....where is Mangle?" Bonbon asked, looking down at the trembling Chica.

"I d-don't know!"

"Ha! You were running your f*cking mouth a while ago, and now you're telling me, you don't know you sh*t head?!"

Chica trembled more at Bonbon's cold gaze.

"Tss...trash. Get out before I kill you."

The three of us gulped. 

In English class, if ever our teacher asks the meaning of hell itself, we'll answer without hesitation, 'Bonbon'.

Chica hurriedly stood up and headed for the door. We watched as her silhouette disappeared in thin air in mere seconds.

"So...Mangle was with Springtrap, huh?" Bonbon asked herself.

"Are you still going to deny they're not in a relationship?" I asked the two of them.

"Well, I guess you have the right to know," Bonbon fidgeted. "Yes...they do have a relationship...but..."

"But?"

We heard the sound of the door slamming open. It was...Chichi.

"What do you need? Did your b*tchy sister send you here because she's too cowardly?" Bonbon asked her.

"No. Never am I going to follow the footsteps of my sister. Although, I happened to see her cowering in fear in a certain corner I passed by."

I felt shivers as I saw Bonbon smirk. And I knew...Bonnie felt the same fear.

"So, what brings you hear Chi?" Bonnie asked.

She looked down. There was a second of silence.

"Actually...Bonbon...Bonnie...I need to speak only to you two."

The two looked at her. I glanced at them. "Fine. I'm out of here if the matter doesn't concern me."

I slowly headed to the door and closed it as soon as was out.

What was so important to leave me out of the conversation? Was there something happening behind my back?

Whatever it is...I'll make sure to find out...Mangle...

. . .

Bonbon's P.O.V.

I heard the door slam close as soon as Foxy was out.

"What were you going to speak to us about Chichi?" I asked her.

"Mangle..."

I felt myself drawing closer to her as soon as I heard Mangle's name.

"Do you know where she is?" Bonnie asked.

I noticed Chichi...gulp.

"Is something wrong?" I asked.

She looked up at us...staring at each or our eyes...Chichi smiled.

"Mangle needs to speak to you two."

. . .
