Hello there everyone!

Once again, time for another chapter for "Golden".

Since FNAF 4 had already came out, I would like to say that I had plotted this story waaay before I knew about the plotline for FNAF 4. So if there are parts of the story that doesn't fit with FNAF 4's storyline, just remember that this was already plotted out before the game was released.

OK, now that I got that out of the way, time to continue the stroy.

I would also like to say again, thanks for all the reviews, faves and follows! It really means a lot to me!

October 1987

"Hold still Springs, just let me fix this…"

Springtrap froze as Goldie screwed back a missing bolt from his jaw. When he was done, the golden bear patted the golden rabbit's back.

"There. Feeling better?"

Springtrap moved his jaw to test it out and smiled up at Goldie. "Yep! A lot better! Thanks Goldie!"

"Anytime, love." Goldie chuckled as he gave Springtrap a hug.

It has been seven years since the two golden animatronics have been placed in the storage facility. They have gotten used to living in the storage and Goldie realized that it wasn't as bad as they thought.

True it got terribly boring sometimes and the nostalgia of their glory days still depressed him a bit, but there were days when Goldie and Springtrap were used for a child's birthday as the golden mascots who interacted with the children. Even the night time wasn't so bad either.

Every night the four animatronics would come down from the stage and head into the Parts and Service room to visit their golden parents and spend hours talking to them.

Even during the daytime, Goldie and Springtrap still remained together and would spend the day talking to each other or holding on to each other, reassured that they will be together forever.

The sound of someone coming towards the Parts and Service room caused Goldie to freeze.

"Watch out," he whispered to Springtrap. "Someone's coming."

The golden animatronics immediately went limp as the door opened and several employees came in.

Goldie was astonished to see the employees carrying in the four animatronics but there was something different about the four animatronics.

Some of their parts were missing, their fur was patchy and some parts of their endoskeletons were showing.

Goldie was horrified when he saw the state of Bonnie and Chica. Bonnie's face was ripped off and Chica's hands were missing.

What happened to them?!

"Well, guess this is the only place where they'll be welcomed," One of the employees sighed as the set the animatronics down.

"Complete waste of time if you ask me…" An employee snorted. "I don't see why we didn't get rid of them instead of trying to retrofit them. They're old and boring now."

One of the female employees gave a glare towards the employee who spoke. "And that's why you weren't given the promotion as assistant manager, Vincent."

"Shut up Audrey!" The employee named Vincent snapped. "Everyone's just too stupid to see that I would be a better choice for management!"

"Hey, knock it off!" Another employee warned Vincent. "If you're just gonna stay here to complain, maybe you better find something useful to do."

Vincent glared at the employees before turning and stalking out of the Parts and Service room.

Goldie felt a dark wave of emotion come over him. For some reason, he had a terrible feeling about this Vincent employee.

Audrey shook her head as she fixed Foxy's head. "Vincent is becoming more rude and aggressive, Paul. I don't like it…"

"Yeah," The employee named Paul sighed. "Guess he didn't take the news of Jason's promotion too well."

"You don't say?" Audrey replied, rolling her eyes.

Finally the employees left the Parts and Services area and the room fell into darkness once again.

Springtrap immediately went over to the four animatronic and knelt down besides Bonnie, placing a hand underneath his chin.

"Bonnie!" He cried out. "What happened? Are you hurt?"

"I don't know…" Bonnie whimpered.

"They took my hands away…" Chica gave a feeble whisper as she raised her arms.

Goldie turned towards the other two and studied them. Foxy's fur was tattered and the fur on his entire left ear was missing revealing the endoskeleton. Freddy seemed to be the least damaged though some parts of his endoskeleton could be seen through the patchy fur.

Goldie went over to Freddy and looked straight into his eyes. "Freddy, what's going on?"

"I don't know…" Freddy admitted. "The employees just took us to a backroom and began to take some of our parts out…then after an hour or so…they just left us here…"

Goldie placed a hand on his forehead and slowly began to rub his forehead.

Surely there was a reason for this. He looked up again. "Did you hear anything from the employees before this happened?"

"Well," Foxy spoke up. "They mentioned something about improving the pizzeria…"

"What is there to improve?" Springtrap wanted to know as he continued fussing over Bonnie and Chica. "You're all great the way you are!"

"Who knows…" Goldie sighed. "Humans are quite strange. All right and then what?"

"Well, they said that they needed newer animatronics…" Freddy said. "And so they said that we needed to be uh…retrofitted I think…"

"That's why they took Bonnie's face and my hands…" Chica spoke up. "But they never gave them back. They said that they will have new animatronics soon…"

"Springtrap?" Bonnie whispered. "What's going to happen to the pizzeria? What's going to happen to us?"

Springtrap immediately held Bonnie closer to him and rubbed his ears. "Don't worry Bonnie…everything will be fine. We'll take care of you. Nothing bad will happen."

Goldie nodded. "We'll wait until the pizzeria closes tomorrow night. Then we shall investigate who has replaced you and find out whether they are a threat or not. Maybe we can work this out peacefully. In the meantime, we ought to go to shutdown mode. It's getting late."

Springtrap nodded and turned towards the other three. "Don't worry…we'll figure this out soon."

The animatronics glanced at each other uneasily but said nothing. They were unsure about how these new animatronics will be like, but they trusted Goldie and Springtrap.

Surely everything will be all right.

For the first time in seven years, all the animatronics settled down together and all drifted off into shutdown mode as a family.

Vincent was the last one to leave the pizzeria later that night.

He angrily stormed down the sidewalk, his rage building with each step he took.

Those bastards! How dare they overlook him as the assistant manager?!

Stupid pizzeria…stupid Jason…he was always the preferred employee of the pizzeria, that brownnoser. He would have been a better assistant manager than that louse. Everybody was just too stupid to see it.

He'll show them…he'll get back at them some way…

Vincent stopped suddenly as the thought came to him.

Yes…they all needed to pay. After all, Jason will never be assistant manager…if there is no pizzeria to manage.

A cruel smile came upon Vincent's face at that idea.

Freddy Fazbear Pizzeria will fall into ruin…he'll make sure of that.

All he had to do was figure out how.

Vincent stuck his hands into his purple jacket and continued on home, the evil idea still playing in his mind.
