Every Story Has A Beginning...

Mine was in 1983

Mine was in 1987

But mine... mine started way after those. Those... Michael and Elizabeth... but mine started with the wicked man. Their father.

Chapter 1: Freddy's Origins

"Dad! Come look!" I grunted. My brother, Aaron, wanted to look at every single thing! Come on, seen one animatronic dance, you've seen them all.

"Hurry!" Boy, was he excited to see a bear, bunny, and chicken dance. I don't want to be a duck, I don't want to be chicken...

"Yay!" My brother's exclamation interrupted my thoughts.

"They are gonna get you," I whispered teasingly to my brother.

"They go get you," he replied in his baby voice. Wow, he actually sounded like a newborn just then.

"Go watch your stupid show," I replied in a snotty voice.

"You're stupid!" He ran off pushing his way to the front of the crowd watching the stage. I didn't bother looking for him, he was already lost in the crowd.

We were at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, a place I visited 2 years ago... a long time ago, but who wants to see it a second time? Though Freddy WAS my favorite, because of his fluent motions none of the others had...

Then I saw the man... he was standing in the corner of the main room watching everyone... really creepy if you ask me.

He caught me staring at him, and before I looked away, he gave me a knowing smile, like he and I shared a secret. I tried to look anywhere but at him, except my eyes stood planted at him, not looking elsewhere.

"WOW!" My brother's voice penetrated through everyone's shouting and talking around me. I seriously did not care if he got hurt or not, but what got me going was when I saw the man walking in his direction...

I started to run towards Aaron, and when I

reached him, the man (who I now understood was a guard because of the uniform,) was nowhere in sight.

"Again," he exclaimed to me when the animatronic show was over. Sighing, I walked him over to dad to get him to cough up more cash, very aware of the guard's penetrating gaze behind me.

Chapter 2: Becoming

Still rattled by the events, we came back a day later because of my brother's pestering... and I was glad this was the last visit. But what I did not expect happened as soon as I entered.

The man from yesterday walked up to me.

"Sorry about the day before, kid if I scared you before! I was just suspicious, gotta always be like that if you are a guard!" At this he laughed like it was a joke.

"I saw you were bored before, so I want to do something for you, you know, kind of like compensation for scaring you!

"Sure, I'm Thomas and this is my brother Aaron." He shook our hands.

"Well, how about Aaron can go and watch the show, while I take you on a tour to something special!" Well, how could I refuse? Especially after he said it would be free? So a couple of minutes later, he was taking me down a hall. Pointing out different rooms along the way, we finally reached a door at the end of the hall.

"In here! Just follow me inside!" While walking in, I saw him take something off of a crate. Once inside, I shrieked.
