When the two finally got home, the pizza was finished off long before as Olivia skillfully reversed up to a large shed, parking just in front of the door.544Please respect copyright.PENANAh9L85MIFBi
544Please respect copyright.PENANABwdjgSJdTg
“I still say you should’ve left him.” Harper repeated for like the millionth time.544Please respect copyright.PENANASP7yFAWzzl
544Please respect copyright.PENANA0NWkfRnPh2
“Oh, shut up and open the door, I’ll get the tarp off Freddy.” she replied, easily stepping up onto the bed tray, since Freddy’s weight had make the bed a lot lower then normal. Taking the straps off that held Freddy in place, she managed to get the large tarp off the bear, throwing it to Harper, who flinched, complaining it was hot.544Please respect copyright.PENANAyKSlNvz0c6
544Please respect copyright.PENANA4kJ4JZUK6X
“Well, it’s been in the sun, what do you expect?” she huffed before looking at Freddy. He was currently motionless, slumped against the cabin.544Please respect copyright.PENANA8RJMVrgxIN
544Please respect copyright.PENANAv57sxNAkNP
“Alright, how to get you down. . .” she knelt, looking at the bear’s face. “I wonder. . . Freddy?”544Please respect copyright.PENANAJj6WFU74Pe
544Please respect copyright.PENANAPIY350AD5H
The bear’s head twitched violently, faint whirring as his eyes turned over to look at her before—544Please respect copyright.PENANAsgKdufEpZP
544Please respect copyright.PENANAvOoc9Tkejn
Flop.544Please respect copyright.PENANAlreUrtbwhO
544Please respect copyright.PENANA2ftHOg5IKs
His hat hat fell off, revealing a tuff of fur on his head. Freddy shakily reached a hand for his hat, he loved it even more then his microphone. After all, his creator had given it to him, it wasn’t part of his design.544Please respect copyright.PENANAh4PlKNIeMs
544Please respect copyright.PENANAkSW7mkAEcG
However, as he reached for it, his arm shook and his right hand fell off.544Please respect copyright.PENANAY4hqRjpor2
544Please respect copyright.PENANAQUW0O2lQ2i
“It’s okay, I’ll get it for you.” she picked up the hat, gently dusted it off and put it back on Freddy’s head before picking up his dismembered hand. “Can you walk?”544Please respect copyright.PENANAzmmXMB7MyK
544Please respect copyright.PENANASmaIDMdS75
‘That poor son of a bitch.’ Harper thought, seeing how pathetic and sad the bear looked. Maybe that’s why her suicidal friend had the crazy thought to rescue him from the smelter.544Please respect copyright.PENANAx7mHuUGkTi
544Please respect copyright.PENANAWnDTKgbN68
“Ah-ah-ah can. . .” the large bear muttered, shakily standing and walking off the bed tray, carefully climbing down. It wasn’t like years ago where he could easily leap off and run around, his gears were getting old and weary and rust covered most of his gears and cogs, making moving a difficult task.544Please respect copyright.PENANAWikLE0ivdV
544Please respect copyright.PENANAE6K6XwXEY2
Harper had the door up and quickly sidestepped out of the bear’s way as he swayed over near a bench, near a clear spot and sat down. Olivia locked her car after grabbing their drinks, shut the garage door and entered through the side door, switching the light on.544Please respect copyright.PENANAkXtdmdZtfo
544Please respect copyright.PENANA4A08VEA33B
However, Harper got a fright from seeing Freddy’s eyes momentarily become white dots. It was part of his night vision feature and it stopped other people from crashing into him in the dark.544Please respect copyright.PENANAfKQQmtbNeN
544Please respect copyright.PENANAedgmjIKJlk
Olivia handed her their drinks and walked over to Freddy, carrying his massive paw.544Please respect copyright.PENANA1SMsP6gjtg
544Please respect copyright.PENANAvFaqybm3NL
“Don’t worry, Freddy, I’ll do my best to fix you up.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAwWPbSFZ9Fh
544Please respect copyright.PENANAPvF2mEoriH
“Are you crazy?” Harper whispered, however a mechanical sigh came from Freddy, sounding different from his normal voice. He had slumped in a very human manner.544Please respect copyright.PENANApMDymlbf9K
544Please respect copyright.PENANAvkhHXGtP79
“Ah-Ah-AH CAN'T THANK Y'ALL-Y'ALL-YA-LLLLL ENOUGH-GH-GH-GH-ZZZZZZ-ZZ FOR HELPIN'-PIN'-PIN' ME-EEEE-ZZZZ. . .” His voice box buzzed like earlier, making it difficult for him to talk clearly but for the most part, he was understandable.544Please respect copyright.PENANA0XUhBESKt3
544Please respect copyright.PENANAYO5Mwx7ree
“What the hell happened to you? How’d you get in that place?” The suspicious blonde asked, still somewhat tense.544Please respect copyright.PENANADg3ADNzw6R
544Please respect copyright.PENANAyAfIhgy70I
“How about you let me try to fix your voice box?”544Please respect copyright.PENANAfzgmXfxDTl
544Please respect copyright.PENANASp3vVg7AVN
“DO-DO-DO-OOOO-ZZ-O Y'aLL KNOW-OW WHAT Y-Y-Y-YOU’RE DOOOOOI-I-I-N'?” he asked, eyes narrowing slightly, surprising the two with the nervous tone in his voice.544Please respect copyright.PENANAWX0yQwmlPZ
544Please respect copyright.PENANA7DY46ptPk4
“She studied robotics in college, I also did engineering, so you’re in good hands.” Harper replied, still watching the animatronic for anything out of the ordinary.544Please respect copyright.PENANA9MKvxbP4Tw
544Please respect copyright.PENANAz6tiNRitNq
“To get to your voice box, I actually need to open your chest, if that’s okay?” Freddy weakly nodded, however a click sound was heard and the bear didn’t move.544Please respect copyright.PENANANwxrPtpHXC
544Please respect copyright.PENANAyVWmIc2GWv
“Ah-AH'M ST-T-UUUUUCK. . .” he muttered, sounding embarrassed as he blinked with a quiet plink noise from his metal eyelids tapping against each other.
Harper forced herself not to giggle as it looked like Freddy’s cheeks were burning up, despite being just fabric, wires and metal.544Please respect copyright.PENANAmC0KjUDcXA
544Please respect copyright.PENANAF26sqq8t9j
“So. . . .can we?”544Please respect copyright.PENANAJXWmJoVpdQ
544Please respect copyright.PENANABHEowOrHj8
“Y-Y-EEEESS-ZZ-SS.” he said as Olivia walked around behind him.544Please respect copyright.PENANAL8hdKhzHvQ
544Please respect copyright.PENANAIWGGpXAo58
“Let’s fix your neck first Freddy. That does not look comfy.” she could see an unnatural object sticking up through what she guessed was his chassis but without ripping the fur on his costume.544Please respect copyright.PENANAKnKpBFAf1C
544Please respect copyright.PENANAv91Hlog8Q8
Harper just stared at the bear as Olivia couldn’t find any zipper or opening.544Please respect copyright.PENANAs6RFEOnRnt
544Please respect copyright.PENANAVub1ubmFUP
As if Freddy heard her thought, he said.544Please respect copyright.PENANA0cIYo4FYn5
544Please respect copyright.PENANApbRQELEUab
“M-MY BA-A-ACK POPS O-O-OOOOFF BY-Y-Y COMMMMMA-A-A-A-ZZZ-ND.” after he said it, a hydrolic hiss was heard as his back opened, slowly until it was parallel with the floor.544Please respect copyright.PENANAaWOSXh11zw
544Please respect copyright.PENANAOLQW0nB4nG
The fur was securely attached to the hard metal piece that protected the hardware underneath, which explained why she couldn’t find a zipper and how they got Freddy open for repairs. She wondered why they didn’t just fix him instead of trying to destroy the bear.544Please respect copyright.PENANAsyvRElKAku
544Please respect copyright.PENANAaywwtpgq2T
“Whoa, Harper, you gotta see this.”544Please respect copyright.PENANA2YmFCpCGEj
544Please respect copyright.PENANAp8OzMxf6DF
“Holy-”544Please respect copyright.PENANAIgR5oZ1cw6
544Please respect copyright.PENANAARNrHOrAJN
They could easily spot Freddy’s endoskeleton which itself was impressive but the circuitry was something else. It was the most advance thing Olivia had ever seen, and she’d seen Asimo in person!544Please respect copyright.PENANA61kcSHl56N
544Please respect copyright.PENANAwBEWVMwnvH
It was incredible, how the hell had a pizzeria, of ALL places, have the most advanced technology in robotics in the world? Harper looked at her friend and blinked.544Please respect copyright.PENANAealZi319vv
544Please respect copyright.PENANAuzHNsEXq3A
“Here, let me pick up your jaw for you.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAWqqT7bnYb7
544Please respect copyright.PENANAUTffsU4tdy
Freddy twitched his ear, trying to move to see if they were hurt but his movement showed the gears and motors inside, specifically his neck motors. They had got stuck behind the metal frame that formed his chassis.544Please respect copyright.PENANAWT03b5w7Fz
544Please respect copyright.PENANAn72wR0VF6A
“She’s fine, just gawking at how advanced your technology is.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAMIuz30HIwW
544Please respect copyright.PENANAv6WjOIgWZG
“And I found the problem, Freddy. Just do not move at all okay?”544Please respect copyright.PENANA8GYcULkEpf
544Please respect copyright.PENANAVmTsfurt9l
He remained motionless as Olivia unhooked the motorized mechanism that was jammed in part of his head chassis. After freeing it, hearing Freddy sigh in relief, Olivia picked up a thin piece of spare metal and her mini blowtorch, walking back over to Freddy.544Please respect copyright.PENANA1dMMHZUAOB
544Please respect copyright.PENANAJkiiEkDcdu
“I’m just going to fix this so it doesn’t happen again, okay?” a faint nod answered her as she welded the piece inside, creating a barrier that prevented the bulky joint of the neck’s mechanism from catching onto it again.544Please respect copyright.PENANAC6ITRLsJvb
544Please respect copyright.PENANAdMk3fc8ISk
“Okay, Freddy, try that out.” Harper said, only to jump when his head spun completely around to stare her in the eyes with a somewhat cheeky grin, his bottom eyelids rising to make him look like he was smiling.544Please respect copyright.PENANA4VpDexfIMz
544Please respect copyright.PENANAMuch9Oo2tU
“M-M-MUUUUCH BETTER!” he grinned as Harper went pale but slowly nodded.544Please respect copyright.PENANAnBLNKJKYml
544Please respect copyright.PENANAaokzcnPeFX
“Man, that’s creepy.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAH6mUs0zNAF
544Please respect copyright.PENANAGf0N4bVWs1
“S-S-SORRRY. . .” Freddy apologised. He used to do that to kids who misbehaved to give them a fright, especially when they used to pick on Foxy.544Please respect copyright.PENANAl69EJ5tEY2
544Please respect copyright.PENANAnoBnlrIFvT
Oh Foxy.544Please respect copyright.PENANA6rylJztMFH
544Please respect copyright.PENANAprRbpggDcf
How he missed his old friend.544Please respect copyright.PENANAQMgb3yxH5P
544Please respect copyright.PENANAgsbVBkkeQu
However, this time, he didn’t mean to scare Harper, she was incredibly jumpy already.544Please respect copyright.PENANADkjX4pVNMz
544Please respect copyright.PENANAWSVSqeY13z
Olivia stood back. “Alright ,Freddy, that’s done, now I need to fix your voice box.” She said, walking around to kneel in front of Freddy. Even when he was sitting, he still towered over her, which was a tad bit intimidating.544Please respect copyright.PENANAIQ7aiNbiC4
544Please respect copyright.PENANAF6W3zrd9Vj
He nodded while Harper joined her, still keeping her distance from Freddy.544Please respect copyright.PENANALKafKtyYUA
544Please respect copyright.PENANAw6KS8ce45f
His chest made a click and the top half opened like a cabinet, revealing more complex circuitry. However a puff of black smoke rose from the cavity as soon as those pieces opened, making the woman pull her head back and wave it away from her face as Harper grimaced.544Please respect copyright.PENANA7qh6Lm674C
544Please respect copyright.PENANAq0p6Zadp1p
It stunk in there.544Please respect copyright.PENANABLlz2f3BHr
544Please respect copyright.PENANA8QH4RRDiYs
Bad.544Please respect copyright.PENANAhcgdpa8h3s
544Please respect copyright.PENANA0b3WQdLv7M
Olivia, however, leaned in once the smoke was gone but the smell made her eyes water from being so close. Did they ever clean the animatronic?544Please respect copyright.PENANAK5ByGpt7Pd
544Please respect copyright.PENANAxOBjzMwUHx
She guessed not, as poor Freddy’s cheeks were glowing bright red in embarrassment, which Harper noticed, but Olivia didn’t, since his head was above her and out of her view, since she could only see the bottom of his jaw if she looked up.544Please respect copyright.PENANAUEjykQkCrO
544Please respect copyright.PENANAL5ZsOHxVAm
Inside, she could see, what she guessed, was Freddy’s voice box. It was sparking and smoking.544Please respect copyright.PENANAqxZIjeJVEB
544Please respect copyright.PENANA13geAjzJ6M
“Hey, Harper?” she coughed a bit from the smell.544Please respect copyright.PENANAGRCYzHbbb3
544Please respect copyright.PENANAm2OYLoHoxx
“Y-yeah?”544Please respect copyright.PENANAeTSpxpskWy
544Please respect copyright.PENANAMhBhz4iU6V
“Can you grab my soldering pen and screw driver set? It’s in the top drawer over there.” she said while pointing.544Please respect copyright.PENANAd55lkihsik
544Please respect copyright.PENANA8BrHsS60vD
Freddy didn’t dare talk. Whenever he did, he felt his voice box spit out sparks and it hurt him, so it would probably hurt the child in front of him a lot more. Yes, he knew Olivia was an adult, but she didn’t look like it, especially with her height. She was a bit smaller then the adults he had seen, paler, skinnier. He almost confused her for being sick.544Please respect copyright.PENANAemJQhhZV4j
544Please respect copyright.PENANAQo5XRtfl69
However, his odor was definitely making her look more so now.544Please respect copyright.PENANAiB34rp5gXR
544Please respect copyright.PENANAmjGlDM7ofo
Harper walked over and handed Olivia her requested tools, only noticing Freddy’s silence.544Please respect copyright.PENANAjS4nASxbNM
544Please respect copyright.PENANAqRun1MDtqN
“Hey, what’s the matter Freddy? You’ve gone quiet, wanna say why?”544Please respect copyright.PENANAppxW5iEA3F
544Please respect copyright.PENANAXrKZy3JI3b
Freddy only shook his head, they were still dangerously close to his sparking and malfunctioning voice box. He noticed that Olivia had started fiddling with his voice box, actually removing it briefly, which made him incredibly uneasy.544Please respect copyright.PENANApfhkFfZlLU
544Please respect copyright.PENANALiEumDNTF2
Please be able to put it back. He silently prayed, watching as Olivia examined it.544Please respect copyright.PENANA3AAhxM9DPt
544Please respect copyright.PENANAFUqngBWxGW
“There’s the problem." the wires had fried out long ago, which surprised her that they were still working, which they really shouldn’t have been. She walked over to a drawer, reaching in while staring at the voice box.544Please respect copyright.PENANAxjsf21ZPVd
544Please respect copyright.PENANAerjC1erpyA
“That looks like. . . . this gauge. . . man all of these wires are seriously fried.” she mumbled, grabbing the required parts before going over to the bench beside Freddy and picking up her soldering pen, starting to repair the worn out voice box.544Please respect copyright.PENANAhw2jTUl4NL
544Please respect copyright.PENANA0incCjNrOM
“From what I heard Freddy, you were an incredible singer on stage, they say you could easily be heard from outside as if you were standing right in front of them.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAdd0ju17b1E
544Please respect copyright.PENANAtPExtLpEgP
Freddy nodded. Cindy’s eyebrows rose in surprise. She thought those rumors were made up, but apparently not.544Please respect copyright.PENANARu4oyUa9vm
544Please respect copyright.PENANA1whu8LQN3a
Harper would ask Freddy a few questions and he’d either nod or shake his head to confirm the rumors she heard from townsfolk.
By the time Olivia had finished, Harper got to know a bit about Freddy from his response to certain questions.544Please respect copyright.PENANAn3FKy141W9
544Please respect copyright.PENANAgRuDiF3wjH
Olivia walked over, a small grin on her face before kneeling in front of Freddy and installing his new voice box with high quality pieces rather then the cheap crap they originally had in there.544Please respect copyright.PENANAHW0jq2Zntw
544Please respect copyright.PENANA626Zu8qR1r
“It’s great to see you two getting along. Alright Freddy, how’s that?” she asked, leaning back as he still had a really bad odor.544Please respect copyright.PENANAFOuPWCFl20
544Please respect copyright.PENANAh9KWEEbLsD
“AH FEEL FANTASTIC!” he boomed happily, wiggling his ears-until one got stuck but he didn’t care, he was just so happy to have his real voice back! Now that his voice was clearer, he had a noticeable raspy Southern drawl. However he looked at Olivia and winced. Her ears were ringing.544Please respect copyright.PENANAcpdI6BQmAa
544Please respect copyright.PENANAsbdVIJodbu
“S-Sorry.” he apologised, forgetting Olivia was right there.544Please respect copyright.PENANAy7O2rBkEjk
544Please respect copyright.PENANAPLlkr7uPdS
“Dang you really weren’t kidding!”544Please respect copyright.PENANAe29LXaoB4M
544Please respect copyright.PENANARQVY80cQph
Harper giggled at that as Olivia picked up Freddy’s dismembered hand.544Please respect copyright.PENANALxgtNm8WaH
544Please respect copyright.PENANApoQrAJtU1v
“Now let’s get you fixed up.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAl1uiCZph2g
544Please respect copyright.PENANAMpLvqQYNLs
Harper snickered.544Please respect copyright.PENANAzVDzeIv1d5
544Please respect copyright.PENANAEXI7dQyHm4
“NOT LIKE THAT!” Freddy rose an eyebrow.544Please respect copyright.PENANAkl45laKd8r
544Please respect copyright.PENANA7guMR5a4wj
“What did she mean?” Olivia's face was bright red.544Please respect copyright.PENANAtAyNJmwxep
544Please respect copyright.PENANAS5Mw6UpONe
“Uh, don’t worry about it.” She said, lifting up his arm after Freddy opened his chassis and Harper walked over.544Please respect copyright.PENANAu8wEGrHAo0
544Please respect copyright.PENANADH00xMnWC0
“Hang on, sweetheart, this is my department, remember?” she chuckled, handing her friend Freddy’s giant hand as she set to work. This let Olivia stand up and stretch, her back popping.
Harper realigned Freddy’s wrist link with his arm’s link and cuff. She clicked it in and pointed.544Please respect copyright.PENANAdKVpwL6yrz
544Please respect copyright.PENANAdSLyQWhP0O
“Can you grab that spanner, pliers and the bigger blowtorch?”544Please respect copyright.PENANANJrxX60q0h
544Please respect copyright.PENANASjV1JrXsKA
“Sure.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAXFxbOTx82k
544Please respect copyright.PENANA1TXczW88fO
Once Harper had her tools in hand, she set to fixing the broken joints and restoring the old metal with new materials.544Please respect copyright.PENANATypFrHuFym
544Please respect copyright.PENANAH8qRsvQ7H0
“There ya go, Freddy, now that shouldn’t come apart for a very long time.” she grinned, actually enjoying repairing the bear.544Please respect copyright.PENANAuZzzsWOvdb
544Please respect copyright.PENANAmUc8EM3nAL
“Alright Freddy, so how’d you end up in that warehouse?” Olivia asked, sitting on the floor despite a chair stool being behind her.544Please respect copyright.PENANA5x6LGnl9KD
544Please respect copyright.PENANAVi0vqoIkfH
“Well, mah former owner, once buyin' the Pizzeria from the original owner, Mr. Fazbear, he built thet new pizzeria after shuttin' our old home down. However, back then, mahself an' the others could still move around.” Harper blinked.544Please respect copyright.PENANAI7kJb4ThgR
544Please respect copyright.PENANAla9AWD478q
“Others? Oh yeah, I heard there were three more, right?” Freddy nodded.544Please respect copyright.PENANAJlPooAC5gN
544Please respect copyright.PENANAr1lyyo13Vm
“Yeah. Bonnie the Bunny, he loved playin' his guitar. He would always light up when the kids clapped an' yelled his name. It was even better when we was able to walk 'round, 'cause the young ones would surround an' hug him.” he recalled. He nearly sounded like he was watering up.544Please respect copyright.PENANAuWXQx4Qwt2
544Please respect copyright.PENANATNWu2nNUQX
“The next animatronic, was Chica. She was the best with the young ones an' would often be tellin' 'em stories 'bout us an' the cupcake she had was basically her best friend. She had made it herself.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAEZxDwMKXgI
544Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2Rhqzcd2d
“Really?” Freddy nodded.544Please respect copyright.PENANApJOAxdRUxk
544Please respect copyright.PENANAe8mIRWgaJK
“Indeed, the lil' cupcake would be hugged by the kids an' would occasionally make a small squeak, like a mouse if Ah recall correctly.” Harper couldn’t help but grin, that sounded so damn cute.544Please respect copyright.PENANAVgs3IbQ0cn
544Please respect copyright.PENANAXMFoievjuf
“An' then there was Foxy. . . . He was everyone’s favorite. . . In the Pirate's Cove, he had a large ship, a stage prop but built after a real ship. Mr. Fazbear’s best friend Frank was a fisherman who would often sail across the ocean, but as kids they would pretend to be pirates, playin' around. His friend had bright red hair an' was the inspiration for Foxy.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAbhv3DeEFhJ
544Please respect copyright.PENANAP4VntlSOIH
He took a mechanical breath before continuing.544Please respect copyright.PENANASY544XMwK7
544Please respect copyright.PENANAGyNK8A2zBm
“When Frank an' Mr. Fazbear was older, Frank got a ship called the ‘Pirate's Cove’ an' they would have plenty of trips with friends an' family. This was the inspiration for the name of Foxy’s set. An' his ship was made from pieces of the actual boat itself. Ah remember Frank’s face when he first saw the pirate fox, it was priceless, he fell in love with the quirky character right off.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAbQek2a6EA3
544Please respect copyright.PENANAqQ8StkO1sz
“However...” The two stopped and were listening intently to Freddy’s story.544Please respect copyright.PENANALOvDlfY7Ie
544Please respect copyright.PENANADavNlt2j1X
“Frank had his own dark secret. . . one thet none of us saw comin'. . . When he was much older, Frank started to act strangely. He would come to the Pizzeria like usual, but he would stare at the kids a lot more then normal. It didn’t seem right. After the show, Ah asked Mr. Fazbear bout it.”544Please respect copyright.PENANAu9z4GeG2mA
544Please respect copyright.PENANASAUExr1QuN
“He explained thet Frank’s grandchild, bein' only four, had passed away.”544Please respect copyright.PENANA2mRTmjECGO
544Please respect copyright.PENANAwXWJX04YT3
“How did that happen?” Harper asked.544Please respect copyright.PENANA8sbfpgR8II
544Please respect copyright.PENANArwMg6ZwjsI
The tattered bear's remaining eye darkened. “It was a horrible accident. .”
