Mikey ran to Pirate's Cove with glee. He had tricked his mother into thinking he was going to see Freddy's band up on stage, as usual. Freddy was cool and all, but he would never be as cool as Foxy. He waited at the closed curtains for his friend to arrive.

"Arrrrrgh! Hello Mikey me lad!" Foxy exclaimed, opening the curtains with a flourish. The fox animatronic flipped up his eye-patch with his hook hand, revealing two yellow eyes that stared warmly at the boy below him.

"Hi Foxy!" Mikey laughed at Foxy's pirate accent. Mikey too looked like a pirate, with a bandanna hat that covered his hair and was tied in the back. He had a toy hook he held in one hand, and a large smile that was missing some teeth.

"Ye ready to join me on an adventure 'cross the seven seas?" Foxy asked, already knowing the answer.

"Of course! I'll follow you anywhere, because you're my best friend! Right?" Mikey replied with gusto.

Foxy gave a hearty pirate laugh before saying, "Of course lad! Ye will always be my friend. Now come on up and let's go on an adventure!" Mikey grinned and ran backwards before sprinting and jumping up into the Pirate's Cove and onto Foxy, wrapping him in a big hug. He heard a small snap, but ignored it and continued to nuzzle the pirate.

"I love you," He whispered, just loud enough for Foxy to hear. He heard a growl and looked up. Foxy was growling with his teeth bared. "Foxy?" Mikey asked innocently, still looking up at the teeth that were beginning to engulf his head. The mouth closed.

CRUNCH.

Mikey fell to the floor, and just before he went unconscious, he heard his mother shriek his name.

"MIKEY!"


Foxy loved Mikey. He was his favorite child. Every animatronic had at least one child that loved them, and nobody else in the pizzeria. Mikey was his. Every weekend, on Saturday evenings and Sunday mornings, Mikey would come to see him and they would go on fun adventures together. Heck, Mikey even dressed up like a pirate. His smile was so adorable with the missing teeth.

Foxy wouldn't let anything happen to him.


He knew something was wrong. When Mikey had hugged him, he'd accidentally broke something. His AI chip! Foxy could feel instincts kick in. They were, after all, made to be animal robots, and the AI chips were what gave them their humanity. Without them, they were monsters. His senses were dulling, and through his muffled hearing he could someone talk to him.

"I love you," Foxy knew it was Mikey, but his body moved without him. Soon, his vision disappeared, and all he could do was listen.

"Foxy?" He heard Mikey say with uncertainty, and fear. Foxy wanted to scream at Mikey, to tell him to run, but his voice failed him. And, though he couldn't see, Foxy wished he was unable to hear.

CRUNCH.

It was sickening to him. People were screaming, and he heard someone run up to him. Then, he fell out of consciousness.


Foxy woke up in the middle of the night.

"Your AI chip was damaged," he heard Freddy say behind him.

"What happened?" He asked scared of the answer.

"You bit someone on the head," Freddy replied, causing Foxy to become paralyzed. "A child," Freddy continued. There was no anger in Freddy's words, only soft disappointment and understanding. He knew they would've done the same thing in Foxy's position.

"Who?" Foxy asked, because that was the million-dollar question, the one he knew the reply to, but was hoping to get proven wrong.

"Mikey. You bit Mikey."

Foxy couldn't move, if he could before. Mikey. The kid who loved him most. The one who lied to his own mother just to see him. His child.

And he killed him.

Sadness and rage filled him to the brim, and he shook as he tried to keep it inside. He could feel the blood on his teeth and face, the blood of his friend. He remembered the words Mikey said to him, words he would never hear again.

I love you.

Cutting into the silence, with a howl of anguish, Foxy screamed.
