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.478Please respect copyright.PENANABwB98ma4eb
478Please respect copyright.PENANAAKTnZI2kS6
“I still say you should’ve left him.” Harper repeated for like the millionth time.478Please respect copyright.PENANAqff161hrLS
478Please respect copyright.PENANAdNPcsPYX1a
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAeIX6nv40hu
478Please respect copyright.PENANAAxCnQYiSEc
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAH6aebMCiFP
478Please respect copyright.PENANAML1CGtkjZq
“Alright, how to get you down. . .” she knelt, looking at the bear’s face. “I wonder. . . Freddy?”478Please respect copyright.PENANAcfrWRxPPPh
478Please respect copyright.PENANA6OpZAtJQq6
The bear’s head twitched violently, faint whirring as his eyes turned over to look at her before—478Please respect copyright.PENANAiZvB2A8DwW
478Please respect copyright.PENANAvBua5AY3Ba
Flop.478Please respect copyright.PENANAU5KOPyHB6V
478Please respect copyright.PENANAy7ztpuD6uK
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAQlqIBOcIr8
478Please respect copyright.PENANABGJT5sHxcB
However, as he reached for it, his arm shook and his right hand fell off.478Please respect copyright.PENANAekyUntnOsC
478Please respect copyright.PENANAlWWEibQwEz
“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?”478Please respect copyright.PENANAsvxeWosyqj
478Please respect copyright.PENANA9fNu4FoUnh
‘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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAFir3nUs9Sw
478Please respect copyright.PENANA6ULbpZBBaa
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAg76tYaUr3k
478Please respect copyright.PENANAtAEtOKFkwZ
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAEWEg6YDQSa
478Please respect copyright.PENANAx1UnylRR0N
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANArRg2ML7546
478Please respect copyright.PENANAdb5lfP5hkg
Olivia handed her their drinks and walked over to Freddy, carrying his massive paw.478Please respect copyright.PENANAEusxBpocHI
478Please respect copyright.PENANANedhETY5fp
“Don’t worry, Freddy, I’ll do my best to fix you up.”478Please respect copyright.PENANApd0itAda3V
478Please respect copyright.PENANAJPXRT9b7gW
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAOuBeClbAfV
478Please respect copyright.PENANAtrNdoWU5BV
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAEGRmJNvmY5
478Please respect copyright.PENANADG8Ozg7vWq
“What the hell happened to you? How’d you get in that place?” The suspicious blonde asked, still somewhat tense.478Please respect copyright.PENANAoBlm9lrW0V
478Please respect copyright.PENANAE0hl69c8WM
“How about you let me try to fix your voice box?”478Please respect copyright.PENANAkurJdaIFaB
478Please respect copyright.PENANASPezBrT70o
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAeqXoKkUqnz
478Please respect copyright.PENANAbAu2jrmioM
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAuQKL2PJMqf
478Please respect copyright.PENANAzY7tXFiQIo
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANA7vA3yeBtmp
478Please respect copyright.PENANA8eKPD7lgpR
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAmL87EQhk8B
478Please respect copyright.PENANAdKliEudZLe
“So. . . .can we?”478Please respect copyright.PENANA1jb33ZFFpO
478Please respect copyright.PENANA0HlOM8Gr1D
“Y-Y-EEEESS-ZZ-SS.” he said as Olivia walked around behind him.478Please respect copyright.PENANAOxid6WObDT
478Please respect copyright.PENANA6cma0Zmkld
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAIcA63cwWk2
478Please respect copyright.PENANA8h1xXIYaA3
Harper just stared at the bear as Olivia couldn’t find any zipper or opening.478Please respect copyright.PENANAGPmPMCDfJL
478Please respect copyright.PENANAOV8o1iPkfj
As if Freddy heard her thought, he said.478Please respect copyright.PENANAy0L0pdI1do
478Please respect copyright.PENANAzWOpjF3sor
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANA4bQk75vo89
478Please respect copyright.PENANAqrbPAExlBl
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAh63eRR8urI
478Please respect copyright.PENANA4DCCZf1zxy
“Whoa, Harper, you gotta see this.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAJrJ2VoeQue
478Please respect copyright.PENANA8wcAgyGR6C
“Holy-”478Please respect copyright.PENANAQgnJbQtxGq
478Please respect copyright.PENANA9smmOKczCK
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!478Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3MbFwkRal
478Please respect copyright.PENANAN28jxjcfWT
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANA8fbNCMkK5F
478Please respect copyright.PENANAdPSH3BI464
“Here, let me pick up your jaw for you.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAzZkpc30qQA
478Please respect copyright.PENANAAVspCN27Rx
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANADLtOX69Tz6
478Please respect copyright.PENANA0YivthaCfK
“She’s fine, just gawking at how advanced your technology is.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAx0knsRqNlY
478Please respect copyright.PENANAE3S2712KXB
“And I found the problem, Freddy. Just do not move at all okay?”478Please respect copyright.PENANA1md6XXUx0b
478Please respect copyright.PENANAhYUF3Y7LbU
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAlj78ouNWoU
478Please respect copyright.PENANAPltiS7yoNI
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAOqiWUk5AIN
478Please respect copyright.PENANAs77v5y1S32
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAUEAH4von8H
478Please respect copyright.PENANANDOQAQ9azS
“M-M-MUUUUCH BETTER!” he grinned as Harper went pale but slowly nodded.478Please respect copyright.PENANAULFLnd1zax
478Please respect copyright.PENANAtlHpqLUtBw
“Man, that’s creepy.”478Please respect copyright.PENANA8AQ0hn3BtZ
478Please respect copyright.PENANAbnP2s0cD9S
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANA2DLWabACCi
478Please respect copyright.PENANAknPm626KYB
Oh Foxy.478Please respect copyright.PENANAknr3jiSrB5
478Please respect copyright.PENANAUsY3P3oxyT
How he missed his old friend.478Please respect copyright.PENANAoNWqgyId1i
478Please respect copyright.PENANAgbeicvCuju
However, this time, he didn’t mean to scare Harper, she was incredibly jumpy already.478Please respect copyright.PENANAm1fDgYxoLI
478Please respect copyright.PENANA9Bs1MVkJwA
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAOU1MnT16Zl
478Please respect copyright.PENANAW3DgAbqFLC
He nodded while Harper joined her, still keeping her distance from Freddy.478Please respect copyright.PENANA6HaZETr99P
478Please respect copyright.PENANARQZ6GoFwBQ
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAtYUG751LyS
478Please respect copyright.PENANA8dRMRTmSXA
It stunk in there.478Please respect copyright.PENANAAPJtTkcsHr
478Please respect copyright.PENANAHwnpppJ9Bf
Bad.478Please respect copyright.PENANA85f0TV0eyA
478Please respect copyright.PENANAxE9SrRP6mZ
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?478Please respect copyright.PENANA2B17IW1yvq
478Please respect copyright.PENANAcA7u4dVJtB
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANASWxcmhOBBc
478Please respect copyright.PENANAuJZRKi9mEd
Inside, she could see, what she guessed, was Freddy’s voice box. It was sparking and smoking.478Please respect copyright.PENANAJl2RiUNcXd
478Please respect copyright.PENANAvOb5YyaYxR
“Hey, Harper?” she coughed a bit from the smell.478Please respect copyright.PENANA3gEblbucUZ
478Please respect copyright.PENANAJj8THBZXgR
“Y-yeah?”478Please respect copyright.PENANAh340Wq2MAY
478Please respect copyright.PENANAH7d4sUkg1B
“Can you grab my soldering pen and screw driver set? It’s in the top drawer over there.” she said while pointing.478Please respect copyright.PENANA8RwdKZEqvt
478Please respect copyright.PENANAJk1UwztgRc
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAA2q2UmNGTF
478Please respect copyright.PENANAouKHpxT3KX
However, his odor was definitely making her look more so now.478Please respect copyright.PENANA5zM7VTOTmI
478Please respect copyright.PENANAJZqphXLgvW
Harper walked over and handed Olivia her requested tools, only noticing Freddy’s silence.478Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZQdwh12Qy
478Please respect copyright.PENANAvX2deb57Jn
“Hey, what’s the matter Freddy? You’ve gone quiet, wanna say why?”478Please respect copyright.PENANAYRPX7zHez0
478Please respect copyright.PENANAdUYTdKYUPg
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANACS8CB9rS4S
478Please respect copyright.PENANA8pUhBQdOHU
Please be able to put it back. He silently prayed, watching as Olivia examined it.478Please respect copyright.PENANATZbXm8fSXl
478Please respect copyright.PENANAiubD4hK4NB
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAco8AuA8vZd
478Please respect copyright.PENANAi1bcLVr7pJ
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAzj3nAvSTPr
478Please respect copyright.PENANAw0zsF9bcim
“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.”478Please respect copyright.PENANA96uxpBXMUF
478Please respect copyright.PENANAjN87C3PQSh
Freddy nodded. Cindy’s eyebrows rose in surprise. She thought those rumors were made up, but apparently not.478Please respect copyright.PENANAFhacgySRVS
478Please respect copyright.PENANAx1YE1z3bkb
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANA1oF3vz86YM
478Please respect copyright.PENANA9jbdb7qjKA
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.478Please respect copyright.PENANA3a9fZUhRtJ
478Please respect copyright.PENANAe9FsmYboqb
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAGDhq5IZlZQ
478Please respect copyright.PENANABe5KNgASi0
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAMSXR1rYhO5
478Please respect copyright.PENANAzP1GIoNHMQ
“S-Sorry.” he apologised, forgetting Olivia was right there.478Please respect copyright.PENANAR9yBVHK5k4
478Please respect copyright.PENANAW9gnudNe16
“Dang you really weren’t kidding!”478Please respect copyright.PENANAdziwHLQzqI
478Please respect copyright.PENANAuHsl0qbPKJ
Harper giggled at that as Olivia picked up Freddy’s dismembered hand.478Please respect copyright.PENANAFgtsO7vTHR
478Please respect copyright.PENANA0EffVDW9UT
“Now let’s get you fixed up.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAiJfZkc5NdA
478Please respect copyright.PENANApPisTQ5SxI
Harper snickered.478Please respect copyright.PENANAFshRiDEgCq
478Please respect copyright.PENANAP7zTXb6Rag
“NOT LIKE THAT!” Freddy rose an eyebrow.478Please respect copyright.PENANAIQXSXFT2Sj
478Please respect copyright.PENANAHn1MLUI9BE
“What did she mean?” Olivia's face was bright red.478Please respect copyright.PENANAgLquXLEdVd
478Please respect copyright.PENANATbwspZPxWk
“Uh, don’t worry about it.” She said, lifting up his arm after Freddy opened his chassis and Harper walked over.478Please respect copyright.PENANAD49cTnn4uE
478Please respect copyright.PENANApVvulYHdj5
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAVeM5Ctr9MP
478Please respect copyright.PENANAMvxyskqQ0s
“Can you grab that spanner, pliers and the bigger blowtorch?”478Please respect copyright.PENANAe8Qx9cSlPW
478Please respect copyright.PENANA1Mw4gQDjef
“Sure.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAT5taVkVpgY
478Please respect copyright.PENANAlnbMLq2IbK
Once Harper had her tools in hand, she set to fixing the broken joints and restoring the old metal with new materials.478Please respect copyright.PENANADemtU6gzQS
478Please respect copyright.PENANAyFst0LeDlZ
“There ya go, Freddy, now that shouldn’t come apart for a very long time.” she grinned, actually enjoying repairing the bear.478Please respect copyright.PENANAOJOPAgO0Ay
478Please respect copyright.PENANAxz2ZVjsfTs
“Alright Freddy, so how’d you end up in that warehouse?” Olivia asked, sitting on the floor despite a chair stool being behind her.478Please respect copyright.PENANAo6pLAoAZ4r
478Please respect copyright.PENANARg5uD8F8F1
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAigwaQJ36DP
478Please respect copyright.PENANA2XG5lojW5B
“Others? Oh yeah, I heard there were three more, right?” Freddy nodded.478Please respect copyright.PENANA8GkVEpWqjg
478Please respect copyright.PENANAVF4SrTsAha
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANAolLbrlgWlE
478Please respect copyright.PENANA9pbvSDnHJL
“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.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAK5DufPMMzj
478Please respect copyright.PENANAtq5gjqlJqQ
“Really?” Freddy nodded.478Please respect copyright.PENANAxQ7Eua6sjG
478Please respect copyright.PENANA2pBmFEKn7V
“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.478Please respect copyright.PENANABOwrL44fRI
478Please respect copyright.PENANANVWvMba3ra
“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.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAkYLkUirdqm
478Please respect copyright.PENANAl6XKOSbR5k
He took a mechanical breath before continuing.478Please respect copyright.PENANACzo8meTVkX
478Please respect copyright.PENANAenbdZ7VmE6
“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.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAU7ysfa6J3h
478Please respect copyright.PENANAfpvAkCQR58
“However...” The two stopped and were listening intently to Freddy’s story.478Please respect copyright.PENANAd4n4TeHEMq
478Please respect copyright.PENANA0uxnjR0u3w
“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.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAvqc80RzJoJ
478Please respect copyright.PENANAR0CP9wsmQV
“He explained thet Frank’s grandchild, bein' only four, had passed away.”478Please respect copyright.PENANAR16SGjDodP
478Please respect copyright.PENANA0dvw7kVm5K
“How did that happen?” Harper asked.478Please respect copyright.PENANAVLBNpywfZl
478Please respect copyright.PENANAqdggBsanXO
The tattered bear's remaining eye darkened. “It was a horrible accident. .”
