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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAiYPYzMmK0u
333Please respect copyright.PENANAhnYKF4vIL0
“I still say you should’ve left him.” Harper repeated for like the millionth time.333Please respect copyright.PENANALmdi0Tl7U6
333Please respect copyright.PENANAValDR8v5Yj
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAAEXIBVfpsZ
333Please respect copyright.PENANAgRTD7ZypMk
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANADdWB56X5Fk
333Please respect copyright.PENANAFdxcIOQpqN
“Alright, how to get you down. . .” she knelt, looking at the bear’s face. “I wonder. . . Freddy?”333Please respect copyright.PENANA0HsSFYtB6k
333Please respect copyright.PENANAgXpCyjtnsS
The bear’s head twitched violently, faint whirring as his eyes turned over to look at her before—333Please respect copyright.PENANAoZgSkAdugz
333Please respect copyright.PENANAuSxRlzb84n
Flop.333Please respect copyright.PENANAuwcm434g7o
333Please respect copyright.PENANAzzPDAy4PGt
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAPYYd8naZbj
333Please respect copyright.PENANA0Mhj66kvq8
However, as he reached for it, his arm shook and his right hand fell off.333Please respect copyright.PENANAJNDjlEhtAb
333Please respect copyright.PENANAH8HtSbU2eR
“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?”333Please respect copyright.PENANADlKk1PY2kc
333Please respect copyright.PENANA2OeAbDUsTD
‘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.333Please respect copyright.PENANADZnX2tb1TX
333Please respect copyright.PENANAHTZCkQ3SOp
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAaVeF6tW8j5
333Please respect copyright.PENANA0ElcpDoC4k
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANApobdRCusa9
333Please respect copyright.PENANAZnEx1q0hdI
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAXdd9ljJtIC
333Please respect copyright.PENANATY66khak2C
Olivia handed her their drinks and walked over to Freddy, carrying his massive paw.333Please respect copyright.PENANA0p0mIvJke6
333Please respect copyright.PENANAPDBDaCFuhU
“Don’t worry, Freddy, I’ll do my best to fix you up.”333Please respect copyright.PENANApsz2OEZxs7
333Please respect copyright.PENANAYLiM2r6eer
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANA1B97qYrvci
333Please respect copyright.PENANAUXsszg6Od0
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAAvbitXk4pt
333Please respect copyright.PENANA1uOYekFL5G
“What the hell happened to you? How’d you get in that place?” The suspicious blonde asked, still somewhat tense.333Please respect copyright.PENANAImheBOT2jp
333Please respect copyright.PENANAmFzMdtedv7
“How about you let me try to fix your voice box?”333Please respect copyright.PENANAkujLTH3qKx
333Please respect copyright.PENANAGC7GEMxyLR
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANADaFGSc7Amz
333Please respect copyright.PENANAgFNvPb9V79
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANADieVbH5hrT
333Please respect copyright.PENANAKwn8TPnPLe
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANArw99vixfmw
333Please respect copyright.PENANArMXZEIXij8
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANA3jeXCQjNiF
333Please respect copyright.PENANAfHv8Y6szBi
“So. . . .can we?”333Please respect copyright.PENANAYdveDLfdGM
333Please respect copyright.PENANAgDvttdOJoU
“Y-Y-EEEESS-ZZ-SS.” he said as Olivia walked around behind him.333Please respect copyright.PENANApHx1iIw8Sg
333Please respect copyright.PENANAt86VefbNZG
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAk1q0JCGlLY
333Please respect copyright.PENANAkQxDEYZ7aC
Harper just stared at the bear as Olivia couldn’t find any zipper or opening.333Please respect copyright.PENANA0S2KZpsctB
333Please respect copyright.PENANAy71iIq9DE6
As if Freddy heard her thought, he said.333Please respect copyright.PENANAb7VnExaS9c
333Please respect copyright.PENANA8P1I0VJDIr
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAIRoy57uSAD
333Please respect copyright.PENANAHbKVDwtM16
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAoFxZs9EahU
333Please respect copyright.PENANAlik55kHkG0
“Whoa, Harper, you gotta see this.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAW0xylCb34k
333Please respect copyright.PENANA3RsSOhScD4
“Holy-”333Please respect copyright.PENANAlpTG49SgOo
333Please respect copyright.PENANA1nG1X6hRuU
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!333Please respect copyright.PENANA3a2Q34EwoI
333Please respect copyright.PENANAE6arvbTGhe
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAlsLfm7lS03
333Please respect copyright.PENANARqkBpUyb1a
“Here, let me pick up your jaw for you.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAinFvSi5u3x
333Please respect copyright.PENANAwYpFHdBksL
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANABd4Syv5Aht
333Please respect copyright.PENANASlHhdTMyfK
“She’s fine, just gawking at how advanced your technology is.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAceBN9DKh2o
333Please respect copyright.PENANAdCHeR5cKRK
“And I found the problem, Freddy. Just do not move at all okay?”333Please respect copyright.PENANAhYZOKFek5e
333Please respect copyright.PENANAoPyLFORyNR
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAbY2yEDRUlv
333Please respect copyright.PENANAo2H8QdFuTs
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAfiu6te3NLh
333Please respect copyright.PENANAGNwztXCIyQ
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAY6areuDRRS
333Please respect copyright.PENANAPCjWfjfdyn
“M-M-MUUUUCH BETTER!” he grinned as Harper went pale but slowly nodded.333Please respect copyright.PENANAUg1hOsmYv2
333Please respect copyright.PENANA98nlgXiTW6
“Man, that’s creepy.”333Please respect copyright.PENANA5mYuqlP4Zd
333Please respect copyright.PENANAKpNpgpBH2s
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAYfrxuHiYOP
333Please respect copyright.PENANAHJVsEb2PD5
Oh Foxy.333Please respect copyright.PENANAiOJq3d6pPD
333Please respect copyright.PENANAQnbMkmGU1h
How he missed his old friend.333Please respect copyright.PENANAAimSmDgxSe
333Please respect copyright.PENANAqJKqup1kiQ
However, this time, he didn’t mean to scare Harper, she was incredibly jumpy already.333Please respect copyright.PENANA4jxnykcMky
333Please respect copyright.PENANAT2XFXdUK3K
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAm4SaBT5THt
333Please respect copyright.PENANAYqx1SG8Mat
He nodded while Harper joined her, still keeping her distance from Freddy.333Please respect copyright.PENANARvQDSck0n7
333Please respect copyright.PENANA5r0tVKk45p
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAGcnZlACiOo
333Please respect copyright.PENANAzoknVgAVvV
It stunk in there.333Please respect copyright.PENANADGJWFJF8oH
333Please respect copyright.PENANACIpBR3u2xU
Bad.333Please respect copyright.PENANAuxcWYLZtpg
333Please respect copyright.PENANAlO2K3Ufp1a
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?333Please respect copyright.PENANAMXNQx54PDb
333Please respect copyright.PENANAcdb7QoUV2H
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANA677KBxEKty
333Please respect copyright.PENANAZVZ31z94AD
Inside, she could see, what she guessed, was Freddy’s voice box. It was sparking and smoking.333Please respect copyright.PENANA4yjFQWoYrm
333Please respect copyright.PENANACafiJKrhOV
“Hey, Harper?” she coughed a bit from the smell.333Please respect copyright.PENANA74ESUpgfhD
333Please respect copyright.PENANA1M2Ur4cOCp
“Y-yeah?”333Please respect copyright.PENANAeeNrZpqozl
333Please respect copyright.PENANACnlQQ6AVoB
“Can you grab my soldering pen and screw driver set? It’s in the top drawer over there.” she said while pointing.333Please respect copyright.PENANAV6UYCTr6K4
333Please respect copyright.PENANAp6szCJ7SeQ
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAfJCPFQqDK7
333Please respect copyright.PENANAaoqkwnVCr4
However, his odor was definitely making her look more so now.333Please respect copyright.PENANA7bIywuBpYL
333Please respect copyright.PENANAeuhO7h9Ji3
Harper walked over and handed Olivia her requested tools, only noticing Freddy’s silence.333Please respect copyright.PENANAPTHOAeh1pa
333Please respect copyright.PENANAS8hVJ8gcYk
“Hey, what’s the matter Freddy? You’ve gone quiet, wanna say why?”333Please respect copyright.PENANAXY5VgYIhpW
333Please respect copyright.PENANAJCjz5S5DI3
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAUXJEttIk4a
333Please respect copyright.PENANA6j6DGc3iPf
Please be able to put it back. He silently prayed, watching as Olivia examined it.333Please respect copyright.PENANAOWGYJhroqu
333Please respect copyright.PENANAbFsnXsAnl1
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANASM6jvxwQ6l
333Please respect copyright.PENANA3t6VVPV0jb
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAxzVCTMO0HB
333Please respect copyright.PENANAApGvFWrntY
“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.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAIGeJbUOGLC
333Please respect copyright.PENANASjPL8wE3a8
Freddy nodded. Cindy’s eyebrows rose in surprise. She thought those rumors were made up, but apparently not.333Please respect copyright.PENANAgGqApCDzFr
333Please respect copyright.PENANAOEEkUtwKFi
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANABKIqdqQv4G
333Please respect copyright.PENANASQhsxJjiqC
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.333Please respect copyright.PENANA4bS7G3jBd4
333Please respect copyright.PENANA3T3Fs4SgjK
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANA01TEO0wM80
333Please respect copyright.PENANAh7uwga5mmy
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANA0xv9Y51QdB
333Please respect copyright.PENANAcVFx3uH5kv
“S-Sorry.” he apologised, forgetting Olivia was right there.333Please respect copyright.PENANAab5IEIcuUV
333Please respect copyright.PENANAULr4YIwJS1
“Dang you really weren’t kidding!”333Please respect copyright.PENANAc5wLovNkYR
333Please respect copyright.PENANAdcu9fKocgt
Harper giggled at that as Olivia picked up Freddy’s dismembered hand.333Please respect copyright.PENANA4iU6aA7B2o
333Please respect copyright.PENANAzHXNcFR9eA
“Now let’s get you fixed up.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAsmTlanMSiR
333Please respect copyright.PENANARsozYY2GZu
Harper snickered.333Please respect copyright.PENANAQIfvR7Bxg5
333Please respect copyright.PENANAhXQV8aletz
“NOT LIKE THAT!” Freddy rose an eyebrow.333Please respect copyright.PENANARm0cIirzR7
333Please respect copyright.PENANAMIK49dJKQ0
“What did she mean?” Olivia's face was bright red.333Please respect copyright.PENANAq5ElcrG6rt
333Please respect copyright.PENANA1d8iWA39FG
“Uh, don’t worry about it.” She said, lifting up his arm after Freddy opened his chassis and Harper walked over.333Please respect copyright.PENANAlogMyFadbX
333Please respect copyright.PENANAOQiWKHOVlW
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANALtCHi01wky
333Please respect copyright.PENANAl2PRywgWsp
“Can you grab that spanner, pliers and the bigger blowtorch?”333Please respect copyright.PENANAq5x2gq1HxY
333Please respect copyright.PENANAILB7YV3hr5
“Sure.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAPrrmTKq6PA
333Please respect copyright.PENANAvhm0C9TAaN
Once Harper had her tools in hand, she set to fixing the broken joints and restoring the old metal with new materials.333Please respect copyright.PENANAzrPX6wrY7l
333Please respect copyright.PENANAUf9jFTHZcD
“There ya go, Freddy, now that shouldn’t come apart for a very long time.” she grinned, actually enjoying repairing the bear.333Please respect copyright.PENANAb8OAv8kJoj
333Please respect copyright.PENANAn9DfgOqHgc
“Alright Freddy, so how’d you end up in that warehouse?” Olivia asked, sitting on the floor despite a chair stool being behind her.333Please respect copyright.PENANAsAMhN5iN11
333Please respect copyright.PENANAnEzfiZU3SL
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANA707nLYiQCj
333Please respect copyright.PENANA71C4dFvzKp
“Others? Oh yeah, I heard there were three more, right?” Freddy nodded.333Please respect copyright.PENANAEtNIaqOBkh
333Please respect copyright.PENANASY5f2sdG1D
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANA4FKzZ2cnO0
333Please respect copyright.PENANA7OwogndeiZ
“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.”333Please respect copyright.PENANA8zNq13BWv1
333Please respect copyright.PENANAhdIMKbE5un
“Really?” Freddy nodded.333Please respect copyright.PENANAnjH9GOVTV2
333Please respect copyright.PENANAF2QrH1dHCk
“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.333Please respect copyright.PENANAv8wAhBZmzo
333Please respect copyright.PENANAT7TRJaiU6H
“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.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAO16i9Oin5s
333Please respect copyright.PENANAWdXen5Eq27
He took a mechanical breath before continuing.333Please respect copyright.PENANAjErtsSuOlg
333Please respect copyright.PENANA0OXJhPivZp
“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.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAHX4bNODD3R
333Please respect copyright.PENANAMokiYl7Bp7
“However...” The two stopped and were listening intently to Freddy’s story.333Please respect copyright.PENANAa6utecbeHl
333Please respect copyright.PENANArPoniCKg6M
“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.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAhOYPpdVpRg
333Please respect copyright.PENANALi7UHN8N4P
“He explained thet Frank’s grandchild, bein' only four, had passed away.”333Please respect copyright.PENANAvATayTswm4
333Please respect copyright.PENANAsf3ViUGDYn
“How did that happen?” Harper asked.333Please respect copyright.PENANAFjfXdAIfxG
333Please respect copyright.PENANAHfaGZ8bxBN
The tattered bear's remaining eye darkened. “It was a horrible accident. .”
