HELLO EVERYONE! King of Swag is back with another story, this time its a fan favorite all around! This time, I shall be working on a Five Night's at Freddy's story! It won't be anything exciting though, mostly my OC (Nicholas Burton) is the night guard of the pizzeria! There will be 5 chapters, including this one, specifically focusing on each animatronic as the story goes on! Hope you guys enjoy!

Just a little heads up, this will be taking place in a slightly different universe. As in, the animatronics are given full Free Roam and the Bite isn't exactly canon! Also, the 'souls' of the animatronics are somewhat similar, but not exactly. I'll try to make it simpler when you're reading.

More changes will be made in later chapters!

Also, Bonnie will be FEMALE in this story!

And I will be updating this every week on Saturdays, early morning! Stay in touch!

NOW READ!

Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Five Nights at Freddy's! Except my OC!

(PS - If you see any grammar errors, don't be afraid to tell me what I did wrong. I'm trying to improve peeps!)

Chapter 1: Freddy

1:27 am...

He hummed to himself as he flipped the page.

"Interesting..." Nicholas muttered.

Through his glasses, his eyes scanned over the endless ocean of words with growing excitement.

In his hand was one of the Harry Potter novels, the Goblet of Fire.

He wasn't sure how long he's been reading, but he couldn't imagine it being longer than 10 minutes since the last time he checked the monitors. It was his method of relaxing while maintaining his job. Since there wasn't much to do besides look at a tablet for 6 hours, he had to improvise in any way he could. Everything was fine as long as nothing too serious had happened.

But as the night guard continued to the next page of the book, he failed to notice the glowing eyes coming from the left door.

"This is what you've been doing?" Came a deep, mechanized voice.

Nicholas, having been so absorbed into the novel, nearly leapt out of his seat and threw the book out of his hands. "Jesus Christ!" The African-American breathed, placing a hand over his now racing heart. His eyes had left the book and darted towards the source of the voice. "Goddammit Freddy! What did I tell you guys about sneaking up on me!?" He scolded sternly, watching as a large brown animatronic bear stepped into the tiny office.

"Heh, sorry. Didn't mean to scare you." Freddy apologized with a chuckle. The gears in his jaw clicked until it looked like he was smiling in amusement. "I only stopped by because I noticed you haven't been on the monitors very much."

"Yeah, well I've been reading a book." Once his heart had settled down, Nicholas let out a long sigh as he relaxed back in his chair. "You already know that Saturdays are 'Me Days'. Just because it's been 4 weeks since I started, doesn't mean I'm still not jumpy every second I'm here." Nicholas pulled at the collar of his white shirt and tried to air out his sweaty chest. "Plus, it's too hot to be getting jumpscared like that." Even if there was a fan placed on his desk, it was still a tiny one. Nevertheless, all it did was manage to blow hot air right back into Nicholas' face.

Freddy leaned back against the wall and crossed his arms, his jaws turning into something more like a smirk.

"Maybe you should pay more attention to your surroundings?"

"It doesn't matter if I am, it's hard as hell to track your movements!" Nicholas exclaimed. Freddy's eyes rolled. Here we go again. "I still don't know how you do it. One second you can be on the stage and next thing I know, you're somewhere else without making the slightest noise. It's like you're teleporting!"

"You could say that. I call it Shifting." Freddy corrected.

"... Do you even know how you do it?" Nicholas questioned with narrowed eyes.

"Sadly no." Freddy laughed. "I've been trying to figure that out for years. I just do it, plain and simple."

"Wow. And here I thought you'd have all the answers."

"Maybe one day we'll figure it out.

"Maybe one day, I'll figure out just how in the hell you and the others are practically 'alive'." Nicholas suggested as he picked up the tablet and turned on the monitors. He switched the cameras to the dining room. There, on stage, he saw Freddy's two animatronic band-partners.

Bonnie, the purple bunny rabbit with a red bow-tie around her neck. Held in her hands was an acoustic guitar, a new feature that's been recently given to her character.

Next to her was Chica, the technical drummer of the group. She was a large yellow animatronic chicken with a wide beak and a bib tied around her neck with the words 'Let's Eat!' written in bold letters.

As soon as the blinking red light came on, the two females turned to look at the monitor. Bonnie, being the friendlier one, waved a hand towards the camera while Chica flashed a grin and gave a quick thumbs up. Nicholas smiled as he shut off the camera. No need to check on Foxy. He was probably sleeping and Nicholas didn't want the blinking sound of the monitor to annoy him.

"Hm, you know, it's strange." Freddy hummed.

"What are you talking about?"

"I'm just thinking back to your first day. It's amusing to think about how quickly you warmed up to us."

Nicholas grimaced just a bit. "Uh, 'warming up' isn't the term I'd use. I pretty much reacted like everyone else who first met you guys." He gave Freddy a flat stare once he heard more chuckling. "It's not funny. You guys scared the shit out of me. I didn't expect my first day on guard duty to involve fighting for my life from 'killer animatronics'."

"True, true. But we got you good. Or Chica did."

"A little too good." Nicholas mumbled. "Is that how you greet everyone that meets you guys?"

"Not exactly..." Freddy hummed and tapped his chin with a finger. "There was a time a burglar snuck into the Pizzeria and I dealt with him."

Nicholas blinked at how blunt the bear sounded. "What do you mean 'deal with him'?"

Flashback (4:59 am)...

There was a quiet click of the lock, followed by the slight creaking of the floorboards.

As soon as the sounds registered into his sensors, his servos kicked into gear and his vision activated upon his 'awakening'.

Going over the usual maintenance settings that his body went through, Freddy's eyes blinked away the numbers and statistics before turning on his night-vision.

"... You seeing what I'm seeing?" Freddy lowered his voice box until his words came out in a whisper volume.

He heard the clicking and whirring on each side of him, telling him that his friends were waking up as well.

"Yeah, I see him too." Chica whispered back.

All eyes, blue and purple, had locked onto the silhouette that moved between the dining room tables. If someone else were watching, a human no doubt, would be unable to even see the silhouette in the darkened room without specific vision. But the three of them did. From what they could make out, the shape of the intruder was big and burly, clearly identified as male until proven otherwise. However, with him having a mask covering everything but his eyes, it was hard to truly identify his identity without closer inspection.

"Is that... another intruder...?" Bonnie slowly spoke, her half-lidded eyes looking over to Freddy and Chica.

"Judging by his appearance, I'd say yes." Freddy confirmed.

"Want me to throw him out?" Chica was quick to suggest, but her bear friend shook his head.

"No, I'd rather not have another accident involving a crushed human again." The way Freddy spoke made it seem like he was grimacing at a distant memory. Chica huffed and crossed her arms. They watched as the burglar made his way to the other end of the pizzeria, where the restaurant owner's room was located. Freddy sighed as he shook his head. "I'll deal with this myself. You girls just get some rest. Especially you Bonnie. You need to get your core recharged in the morning."

The purple bunny didn't even respond as she shut down to stand-by mode, her eyes going dim and her body slumping a bit forward.

"Alright, I'll leave this to you. But I call the next one, ya hear?" Chica said.

"Fine." After Freddy promised, Chica had shut down as well just as a swishing sound was heard next to her.

Freddy had shifted.

There were sounds of surprise and fear once Freddy reappeared.

Next thing the burglar knew, he had been caught by a large robotic bear. But not in a way he'd expect.

Just as he went to break into the pizzeria owner's safe, two furry mechanic arms pulled him away and soon held him down.

In Freddy's lap.

It took a couple of minutes, an estimated 10 tops, for the man to stop flipping out in Freddy's hold. And once he did, the bear had taken his turn to speak. "What's your name?" He asked gently. He could feel the burglar shaking in his hold.

"S-S-Steven..."

"Steven...?"

"T-Thompson..."

"Well Mr. Thompson, my name is Freddy Fazbear. As you probably already know." Freddy greeted formally. The man flinched when Freddy tapped him with a single large finger. "Now as I'm sure you're wondering, you're probably thinking how and why is an animatronic holding you captive. Well Mr. Thompson, I'd like to ask you a question first. What in the world brought you to robbing a kid's pizzeria?" The man said nothing. Or more like, couldn't say anything from the fear that locked him in place. "Here, why don't we take this off..."

Making sure to use the tips of his fingers, Freddy gently pulled off the black mask and found a mop of bleached blonde hair. "See? Not so bad."

"Please d-d-don't hurt me..." Steven whimpered.

"Oh, you have it quite wrong Mr. Thompson." Freddy inquired. "I don't plan on harming you. I just want you to tell me why you're committing a crime. It's not nice to take other people's things."

"I... I..."

"That's it, go on."

"If you promise you won't hurt me, I'll tell you." The man was left with no choice. He was in the grip of an animatronic bear twice his size, fully capable of crushing him with a simple squeeze.

"I give you my word as a gentlemen."

"W-Well, I need some money to bail my brother out of jail..." He began.

Flashback Over...

"Apparently Mr. Thompson was just confused about what course of action to take. For a 19 year old, he didn't know any better. So from 5 am to 6, I spoke to him about problems that brought him to the life of crime. Although, I had to internally dial 911 while we were talking and eventually convinced him to turn himself in. I told him that the only way to correct his mistakes is to endure any punishment given to him." Freddy finished.

Once he was done talking, he noticed the flabbergasted expression on Nicholas' face.

"Where the hell was the night guard?"

"Out goofing off with his girlfriend."

"Did Charles fire him?"

"Yup. Jeremy was always the type to never take the night guard role seriously."

"I gotta say, I honestly expected you to do something else." Nicholas laughed.

Freddy arched a brow. "Like what?"

"Like shove him in a suit. Just like what the phone guy warned me about."

"Well... if it were any other day before that, I probably would have."

"Wait. You serious?" Nicholas's jaw dropped when Freddy nodded. "You actually killed people by shoving them in a suit!?"

"Hey, the only people that got killed were burglars and night guards."

"How many?"

"In total? 7 or so..."

"Jesus Freddy!" Nicholas' hands shot into the air in disbelief. "Should I be worried about dying now!?"

"No no no! No need to be scared!" Freddy quickly reassured. "I promise you, none of us will try to stuff you into a suit!"

Nicholas, with his book already forgotten on the desk, had his face placed into his hands as his head shook to the sides. "Freddy... why in the hell-"

"Protocols." The bear quickly answered. "After 12 am, we used to see humans as endoskeletons that needed a suit. After the last fiasco, Charles ordered an engineer to change our servers to identify possible criminals that walk into the pizzeria."

"..." Nicholas continued to shake his head. "How didn't you realize that those were actual people?"

"Let's just say, I've had second guesses when I realized endoskeletons aren't supposed to scream and explode in a shower of 'fluids'."

The look of horror Nicholas gave him was enough to make the bear laugh.

"Anyway, I guess I'll leave you to finish your book. See you tomorrow night." With that, Freddy seemed to fade out of existence.

After turning on the monitors, Nicholas found the animatronic bear standing on stage with Bonnie and Chica. The bear looked at the camera and tipped his hat.

The horrified look never left Nicholas' face.
