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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAmlU5BVL0DA
408Please respect copyright.PENANAAIvwAAYHzf
“I still say you should’ve left him.” Harper repeated for like the millionth time.408Please respect copyright.PENANAfAxVApgkDx
408Please respect copyright.PENANAPdN6e5etXu
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAYlwg33BkAq
408Please respect copyright.PENANATChjFIqR07
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANA1SjjY29T9W
408Please respect copyright.PENANAoUvHATVif8
“Alright, how to get you down. . .” she knelt, looking at the bear’s face. “I wonder. . . Freddy?”408Please respect copyright.PENANAt6SBg7QDZy
408Please respect copyright.PENANACKaRs9QlcW
The bear’s head twitched violently, faint whirring as his eyes turned over to look at her before—408Please respect copyright.PENANASYIuLwD0zo
408Please respect copyright.PENANAaYoKgxgAjb
Flop.408Please respect copyright.PENANASLoBKa0FLb
408Please respect copyright.PENANAhuYEbMryz9
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAdvEPEWTUWP
408Please respect copyright.PENANAnrUdTKrXkQ
However, as he reached for it, his arm shook and his right hand fell off.408Please respect copyright.PENANAB9msKQVBMO
408Please respect copyright.PENANAeaR6cCYLRc
“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?”408Please respect copyright.PENANALucZLOqbBF
408Please respect copyright.PENANA07ba2BRxR6
‘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.408Please respect copyright.PENANASbh3G2pcyP
408Please respect copyright.PENANAki244j6NNR
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAOlsuAJjGGS
408Please respect copyright.PENANAUF0Uh8riL7
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAyavU4dmgmA
408Please respect copyright.PENANA13VtPmVuhm
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAccdeLHsw6A
408Please respect copyright.PENANAHnhdd70YnN
Olivia handed her their drinks and walked over to Freddy, carrying his massive paw.408Please respect copyright.PENANAzj2yIhz6ip
408Please respect copyright.PENANAXDLA7F3kaO
“Don’t worry, Freddy, I’ll do my best to fix you up.”408Please respect copyright.PENANA58YZIeyZDU
408Please respect copyright.PENANArJpaKMgrM3
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAtkTlShX0em
408Please respect copyright.PENANAkFs6oaUv16
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANA1hmizyGk8O
408Please respect copyright.PENANARZdA1kuZfI
“What the hell happened to you? How’d you get in that place?” The suspicious blonde asked, still somewhat tense.408Please respect copyright.PENANAdvBAJN2QFa
408Please respect copyright.PENANAjkFKTS9Wxa
“How about you let me try to fix your voice box?”408Please respect copyright.PENANAPKwdoe44rG
408Please respect copyright.PENANAShOtivk0R6
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAqPxlUWHYg2
408Please respect copyright.PENANALyWLEma90C
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAo1owH5FXqk
408Please respect copyright.PENANA2tSm4u7K4S
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAlY5SdAqvnp
408Please respect copyright.PENANAG2uMnee0Ih
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAHWLi7LsJL4
408Please respect copyright.PENANAhr1ImTXfc8
“So. . . .can we?”408Please respect copyright.PENANAFQyqcp6Jn5
408Please respect copyright.PENANAPXW3rJjwlk
“Y-Y-EEEESS-ZZ-SS.” he said as Olivia walked around behind him.408Please respect copyright.PENANAmlncxb2ycr
408Please respect copyright.PENANAgEFELYyWBV
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAnhxvnR7Elr
408Please respect copyright.PENANAL73CYE5NlN
Harper just stared at the bear as Olivia couldn’t find any zipper or opening.408Please respect copyright.PENANA4fIoVJE2wE
408Please respect copyright.PENANA7zvoVcb3hp
As if Freddy heard her thought, he said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAhEvePpmhIM
408Please respect copyright.PENANAGZzvXfJlxE
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAr6rjoCMQyX
408Please respect copyright.PENANAyvqZp7Dd8x
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANA0WPx80nO5O
408Please respect copyright.PENANAmnZJADKIBO
“Whoa, Harper, you gotta see this.”408Please respect copyright.PENANAunxUJuasp4
408Please respect copyright.PENANAiIL0iPkoBY
“Holy-”408Please respect copyright.PENANAJhrEtzPkup
408Please respect copyright.PENANAOVDZFYJVtC
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!408Please respect copyright.PENANAtUHv6Ayk3j
408Please respect copyright.PENANAgzMtkivSS6
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAjbgB1gsysr
408Please respect copyright.PENANAaLFBvGFrH8
“Here, let me pick up your jaw for you.”408Please respect copyright.PENANA2n2HgB6UVm
408Please respect copyright.PENANAIVpeGGe7YB
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAAq87blJ4w3
408Please respect copyright.PENANAzEngTLylLs
“She’s fine, just gawking at how advanced your technology is.”408Please respect copyright.PENANAcxlMnfpwAK
408Please respect copyright.PENANAoHdWhmEOLJ
“And I found the problem, Freddy. Just do not move at all okay?”408Please respect copyright.PENANApo39YA0xeO
408Please respect copyright.PENANAq4Wf5ZfbBR
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAKovbfWK573
408Please respect copyright.PENANA4bCgmpDHOs
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAmROBu2kR69
408Please respect copyright.PENANAKUmXOP2yCZ
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAqOGqAPZB0x
408Please respect copyright.PENANAoZbxS2J3UT
“M-M-MUUUUCH BETTER!” he grinned as Harper went pale but slowly nodded.408Please respect copyright.PENANAJvUb5eknyC
408Please respect copyright.PENANAdPyjdIUgyp
“Man, that’s creepy.”408Please respect copyright.PENANArnaseK16G4
408Please respect copyright.PENANAwQdsT220HT
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAFuTPsq8paq
408Please respect copyright.PENANAKceOLi2S7o
Oh Foxy.408Please respect copyright.PENANAj6Exfut6Pf
408Please respect copyright.PENANAVrdCu56iOQ
How he missed his old friend.408Please respect copyright.PENANAJ101DzJ8Bb
408Please respect copyright.PENANACPMNYiLUAq
However, this time, he didn’t mean to scare Harper, she was incredibly jumpy already.408Please respect copyright.PENANALj7KfdYNEx
408Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZAPBHXkXG
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANACVzLLMtxQY
408Please respect copyright.PENANAW20uaJ95ui
He nodded while Harper joined her, still keeping her distance from Freddy.408Please respect copyright.PENANAMPOLCiM0Wb
408Please respect copyright.PENANAhFCwoorbAo
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAq9mUpEwWnC
408Please respect copyright.PENANANxKCKt7UQN
It stunk in there.408Please respect copyright.PENANA0TzMSZx07F
408Please respect copyright.PENANAGyXdslATG0
Bad.408Please respect copyright.PENANATeBUk5cLKs
408Please respect copyright.PENANADNy9BufJtr
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?408Please respect copyright.PENANAatq8Alplpo
408Please respect copyright.PENANAyoD73YxEVB
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAXbTtIIu7gT
408Please respect copyright.PENANAbgkYIrlRwI
Inside, she could see, what she guessed, was Freddy’s voice box. It was sparking and smoking.408Please respect copyright.PENANACEj6dy7m4F
408Please respect copyright.PENANAiEmlAmDpJv
“Hey, Harper?” she coughed a bit from the smell.408Please respect copyright.PENANAvkd9htPg0a
408Please respect copyright.PENANAMdzJsKnZcC
“Y-yeah?”408Please respect copyright.PENANAwhrdslrglt
408Please respect copyright.PENANA5nhA0WZ5Fz
“Can you grab my soldering pen and screw driver set? It’s in the top drawer over there.” she said while pointing.408Please respect copyright.PENANAElPLaTmwx0
408Please respect copyright.PENANAcEpsCFVPMn
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAJfWJSnmG9k
408Please respect copyright.PENANALUUqylN5Ai
However, his odor was definitely making her look more so now.408Please respect copyright.PENANAAVshTaiHnn
408Please respect copyright.PENANAzHlFwJDkTW
Harper walked over and handed Olivia her requested tools, only noticing Freddy’s silence.408Please respect copyright.PENANAEpHp7VTGMr
408Please respect copyright.PENANAM03DZkzyEg
“Hey, what’s the matter Freddy? You’ve gone quiet, wanna say why?”408Please respect copyright.PENANAXqIiMaGCjG
408Please respect copyright.PENANAaYjFcyD0Tt
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAARGkcenPgE
408Please respect copyright.PENANAZwgtCGOZrK
Please be able to put it back. He silently prayed, watching as Olivia examined it.408Please respect copyright.PENANA9OmbpXpMOD
408Please respect copyright.PENANAsoi8O82olY
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAfCt9i3YhoM
408Please respect copyright.PENANAVWM9kGzKfD
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAkWdmNcca5B
408Please respect copyright.PENANAIYWxkZjXQI
“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.”408Please respect copyright.PENANAdx83khmK1A
408Please respect copyright.PENANAd670AkKbnE
Freddy nodded. Cindy’s eyebrows rose in surprise. She thought those rumors were made up, but apparently not.408Please respect copyright.PENANAEJt8T3HgNj
408Please respect copyright.PENANAghhdquy3PL
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAn4S5jzxpTu
408Please respect copyright.PENANAwSwTgFXfJn
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAx84F2XELPh
408Please respect copyright.PENANA7lKVo5xTZb
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANASTa7rHQtbU
408Please respect copyright.PENANAn8IuI8DEGC
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAapm62kmwww
408Please respect copyright.PENANAWaCye79ZBY
“S-Sorry.” he apologised, forgetting Olivia was right there.408Please respect copyright.PENANAmymvypQSXk
408Please respect copyright.PENANAO45SbUOyHI
“Dang you really weren’t kidding!”408Please respect copyright.PENANAGocz90u7cH
408Please respect copyright.PENANAjKGW5sNF6O
Harper giggled at that as Olivia picked up Freddy’s dismembered hand.408Please respect copyright.PENANAyl6cBhzokh
408Please respect copyright.PENANAsAOvUoWh9B
“Now let’s get you fixed up.”408Please respect copyright.PENANAct7Wo2ltOA
408Please respect copyright.PENANAU98cDKn2hF
Harper snickered.408Please respect copyright.PENANAFxg7nylebR
408Please respect copyright.PENANAa6V9Ou0Ne3
“NOT LIKE THAT!” Freddy rose an eyebrow.408Please respect copyright.PENANAtJB02sGNSz
408Please respect copyright.PENANA45eXq27zUs
“What did she mean?” Olivia's face was bright red.408Please respect copyright.PENANA9qwAP733zM
408Please respect copyright.PENANA45PnxsHL5T
“Uh, don’t worry about it.” She said, lifting up his arm after Freddy opened his chassis and Harper walked over.408Please respect copyright.PENANA0mDtjaWe5t
408Please respect copyright.PENANA1rw4Eyp6ap
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAgZa0EorR7I
408Please respect copyright.PENANAFqAoI9LFrH
“Can you grab that spanner, pliers and the bigger blowtorch?”408Please respect copyright.PENANAiPQ0zYOC9X
408Please respect copyright.PENANAZUstM3mCNI
“Sure.”408Please respect copyright.PENANAO77AhVfYat
408Please respect copyright.PENANAXCtgLmnoNn
Once Harper had her tools in hand, she set to fixing the broken joints and restoring the old metal with new materials.408Please respect copyright.PENANAuiUxy5vQ2w
408Please respect copyright.PENANAyWkfpodrSi
“There ya go, Freddy, now that shouldn’t come apart for a very long time.” she grinned, actually enjoying repairing the bear.408Please respect copyright.PENANASlqcq0qM2i
408Please respect copyright.PENANAQiCPjsfh1u
“Alright Freddy, so how’d you end up in that warehouse?” Olivia asked, sitting on the floor despite a chair stool being behind her.408Please respect copyright.PENANAUeiyKuUD2H
408Please respect copyright.PENANAfZ9JoRU1jO
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAxyfzJxDTXv
408Please respect copyright.PENANAgCzRGK4QZs
“Others? Oh yeah, I heard there were three more, right?” Freddy nodded.408Please respect copyright.PENANAV4lwJVBjWA
408Please respect copyright.PENANAMwE5rNs5PP
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAjDnCmAJcjw
408Please respect copyright.PENANADnogHmbJwX
“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.”408Please respect copyright.PENANA5KxqZNPtuV
408Please respect copyright.PENANAAcXnWpse9U
“Really?” Freddy nodded.408Please respect copyright.PENANA0yXTubtIJf
408Please respect copyright.PENANAIfqgFlrlCJ
“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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAI03bZlqTFL
408Please respect copyright.PENANAtbLfeXF0Cd
“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.”408Please respect copyright.PENANAqvBvBIHasD
408Please respect copyright.PENANAsaRbxFCT7c
He took a mechanical breath before continuing.408Please respect copyright.PENANAAaBESGQIx7
408Please respect copyright.PENANATROPzrMgTe
“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.”408Please respect copyright.PENANABRjBz6X1BO
408Please respect copyright.PENANAkR2CnuPqUr
“However...” The two stopped and were listening intently to Freddy’s story.408Please respect copyright.PENANARv8kJeCqIo
408Please respect copyright.PENANAfApbS58REB
“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.”408Please respect copyright.PENANAnj4Jokp0Wb
408Please respect copyright.PENANAlD9jBNHgJP
“He explained thet Frank’s grandchild, bein' only four, had passed away.”408Please respect copyright.PENANASlnpR6wD60
408Please respect copyright.PENANAPTziLlyyWR
“How did that happen?” Harper asked.408Please respect copyright.PENANARvKaJFbP0v
408Please respect copyright.PENANAsnqixAtNS6
The tattered bear's remaining eye darkened. “It was a horrible accident. .”
