Masked Souls

Chapter 18: Terrible things



After the mask floated and landed on SpringBonnie's face like a punch, SpringBonnie slowly fainted, but after fainting, his eyes glowed white, as the mask slowly faded away, until a moment later, the mask faded away, and his eyes stopped glowing, but something deep inside him changed.

Meanwhile, Fazbear Entertainment was trying to fix their both pizzerias, and working hard. They also tried to replicate the springlocks animatronics, trying to find what secret could they have, as SpringBonnie didn't seem as any normal animatronic for all they saw.

Stephen called Mark to try the suit, he hesitated, with obvious disgust against the robots, but Stephen lied to him by telling him about the suit giving him extra strength and power to destroy more thing more easily.

Mark after hearing this, instantly started wearing the springlock suit. After a check, Stephen seemed still questioning how an animatronic could not act as one, and be even stronger than should.

Each test they did, only showed poor results compared to what they wanted. Stephen was getting annoyed, desiring to obtain the secret to have an own SpringBonnie, to have an animatronic like that one for be under his control and orders.

Slowly, the superiors of Fazbear Entertainment started running away, something was wrong.

Stephen, wondering what was happening, turned around, to see how a ghost with a little girls shape was floating with red crimson eyes, big black lines under her eyes, and all white silhouette body.

Both Stephen and Mark panicked, but the suit started reacting upon the presence of Cassidy, and soon enough, the springlocks went off, slowly massacring Mark by a terrible way, as each limb was almost completely shattered into nothing inside the suit. His torso suffered slightly less, as only his ribs and chest were shattered. His waist remained safe, but his head suffered by the skull being pierced through.

Slowly, Mark died drowned in a springlock suit dead trap. After Mark collapsed down, Stephen was already gone, but Cassidy was satisfied... For now. She felt a deep satisfaction of justice be given properly at the terrible death of Mark. But for her surprise, the hatred inside Mark, was a call for something else.

Mark's agony for dying springlocked, the hatred for dying to a robot, the shame for be that way and not how he always thought and wanted, even desired. All generated enough remnant to attract something no one could have ever wanted.

After Mark's death inside a springlock suit, designed to be a replication of SpringBonnie, Cassidy slowly faded away, leaving. Minutes later, the suit started twitching, it wasn't only glitching, it was starting to move erratically, shaking violently, until suddenly, it's eyes started glowing grey.

Few hours later, near 5 am. Henry had SpringBonnie and Puppet in his home. Henry observed the state of both animatronics, wondering the state of Fredbear, but he had an idea of how would be.

Henry sighed, and hesitated in his mind, he was struggling in decide what to do now, as there were multiples things and all at the same time. And after a moment, he decided to leave, locking the door in case anything could happen, and driving to the hospital.

Meanwhile Henry drives to the Hospital to check on Michael, slowly, little sparks in SpringBonnie's left eye flash with weak light intensity, and then, slowly rises his head.

SpringBonnie looks around, wondering what's going on, or even where is he, but he can't think, is dizzy and disoriented, but also seeing everything blurry. SpringBonnie is not in a state to can do anything at all, but yet, tries to look around.

After a check, SpringBonnie stares at the turned off TV, thinking in want a distraction for get everything out of his head, but can't even move, so lays his head down, and then is when notices is up of a couch.

He insists to get up, but only manages to fall, and make what remains of Puppet to also fall down along. He looks, but only for an instant, as he can't look at Puppet like that, he feels like being stabbed when looks at how Puppet is.

Slowly, as he keeps pushing himself, slowly starts feeling his right arm and legs back again, but what he does after manages with almost impossible difficulty, is grab Puppet, and placer her in the couch. SpringBonnie then sits a meter away from the entrance door, and turns off. He has a plan in his head, and knows what to do, no matter what happens next, he knows who to blame.

In the hospital, Michael results to be in a coma, the state he is, makes clear Michael may die, rather than survive, but what makes everyone in the hospital hesitate of the obvious results, is the purple skin color of Michael, and the huge hole on his torso.

Henry and the medical staff wonder everything, even if Michael can die, or even if is in a coma or not. They struggle to wonder if what they studied was correct, or if this is something new to the entire world. The staff is unable to understand anything, while Henry starts thinking in positive, as is in the border of collapse as how many things are going on, and getting out revealed.

In a sudden, for everyone's surprise, Michael suddenly wakes up and gets up like nothing ever happened, what freezes and takes down the medical staff. Michael walks towards Henry, and apologizes to him, knowing that he owes Henry an explanation, but recommends Henry to not know.

Henry, aware that it may be something terrible, tells Michael that he prefers not know how anything happened, and is just glad Michael is okay, and that they have to fix whatever happened.

After Henry took Michael to his home, to show how SpringBonnie ended, both get surprised to see SpringBonnie be sitting a meter of the entrance door, after they opened the door.

Michael: "So... This is how... He ended?"

Henry: "Yes, Michael. This is how Billy ended.. For what I know, is the one who got the best part, and less damage."

Michael: "Why is sitting there? Is turned off, but feels... As is waiting for something, or someone."

Henry: "Maybe he turned on while I went to the hospital to check on you, and then turned off by how it is. I admit, he always used to be a hard one, even when is almost dismantled, seems to persist and keep trying, and maybe... This is his way to tell us is still also alive."

Michael: "I wouldn't be surprised. He isn't a robot, is a human, and honestly, even when his story seems sad and dark, he acts different. I wonder why acts how it does, but I think, after how many things I found out... I'm sure neither me, nor you, wanna know."

Henry: "Totally. He is a secret that should remain inside a locked chest, and not be opened to be told or found. But I'm proud of how he is still persisting. Oh, and by the way, Michael, wanna stay for the night? Now that you're here."

Michael: "Thanks, Henry. I appreciate it."

In the morning, Henry wakes up, and when walks to the living room, notices the entrance door open, SpringBonnie was gone, and sees Michael sleeping in the couch, along what remains of Puppet. Henry wonders what's SpringBonnie up to, but whatever it is, better let him be..

Meanwhile, SpringBonnie is slightly fixed, and glowing from inside white with red outline. For strange reasons, he had Charlie along him, as possessing him deeper than before, and was some sort of the new Puppet, along remaining the same. And internally, as passively, the remnant of his own soul was slowly healing and fixing him.

SpringBonnie was standing in front of where the warehouse of Fazbear Entertainment was, and is completely fixed and even bigger and better. He wanted revenge for what they did, and for Charlie, and so, he entered inside.

SpringBonnie was only 45% healed and fixed, but he was more furious than ever before, as his red pupils were deep red crimson color, very easy to see even in the distance in the darkness. One thing was clear, everyone inside the warehouse was gonna meet their faith..

After SpringBonnie entered inside the warehouse, after each kill, was brutal and desiring to kill slowly, but couldn't lose time, and so, he brutally dismantled each guard and employee he found.

No matter the world, one thing was clear. Don't dare to mess with Charlie, much less kill her, as she... Is the true one your should have never killed... The ascended angel.

After a rampage of murder, the doors of the high offices were destroyed, and the superiors were face to face with SpringBonnie, but they could only see the red eyes, before the lights suddenly flicker and turns off, and then, SpringBonnie started walking closer.

Each step was a deep smash to everyone, they knew what was gonna happen, and wasn't good, and after few steps, SpringBonnie jumped towards them, the scream was deep hard, neither metallic or male, was more deeper than any other thing anyone could hear.

The lights suddenly flicker, turning on, and all the office was filled with blood, and there were no bodies to be seen, but SpringBonnie now seems completely fixed, and even more shiny than ever before.

Each kill, each soul, was being absorbed by SpringBonnie, fixing him, and now, he wasn't gold color, he was more shiny than gold itself, and even as if is real gold, with shiny lights that shows more than value, or even life, but the light in the darkness, and the light of safety for those who wander in the darkness of death and abyss.

The light is easily seen by Cassidy, who remained observing and enjoying the show, but wondering about SpringBonnie, and still not trusting him entirely, was hesitating in what she should do, as she knows is not William Afton, but also, seems to have the same objective as her.

Sadly, for SpringBonnie, Stephen wasn't there, and luckily for Stephen, he was now the only owner of Fazbear Entertainment. It's unknown where Stephen is, but for sure, preparing something terrible...

And for Mark... He was standing still, chained, as something, or better say, someone, was leading him into somewhere. But he wasn't Mark anymore... Something replaced him... Something came back for own revenge... Those grey deep dead eyes with red outline on what could be seen as skulls, tells everything about it.

This war, wasn't only near to end, but was just barely starting, and now... The war really started.
