Chapter 4 – Thursday
Uh oh, another call. Phone Guy answers the phone. It's Jim. "Hello… hello?" Phone Guy says, as he can barely hear Jim. It's about 5 AM. "I need you, please come in!" Jim says to Phone Guy. Phone Guy tells him "I'll be right there!" He gets dressed, and ready to go into work. He leaves his house and heads straight for the pizzeria, once he arrives he sees strange flashing lights on the inside, similar to what happened two days ago when Foxy up close and personal with that woman. Oh no. He quickly gets out of his car and runs inside.
Jim is screaming in his office, as the lights are flickering on and off. Phone Guy sees a purple light flashing near the backroom. Phone Guy avoids it and goes to check on Jim, running into the security office. Right outside his room is Foxy. The lights stop flashing when Phone Guy gets there. Jim is scared out of his mind. Phone Guy quickly walks past Foxy and into the room. "What happened?!" Phone Guy asks, as Jim can barely speak. He manages to make out some words through his shaky voice "Lights… they started flashing, then the animatronics went crazy… then Foxy… looked at me and he stopped right at the door. I don't know what would have happened if you didn't…" Jim can't make out the last word, as Phone Guy shuts the door in Foxy's face. "I'll call Henry, he'll know what to do." Phone Guy says as he picks up the phone, Jim grabs the phone out of his hand and puts it down. "We can't trust them, we can't trust any of them." Jim says, as Phone Guy looks at him curiously.
Jim walks over to the coat rack to put on his jacket, as he's shivering like crazy. "They don't know anything about this place. They think these things are safe. They aren't anymore! I know exactly what happened to them!" Jim says as he starts coughing violently. Phone Guy watches as Jim slowly sits down in his chair. "Jim… are you alright?" Phone Guy asks, as Jim slowly turns to look at him. "I'll be fine once I'm out of here. I'm quitting." Jim says, shocking Phone Guy. "But Jim… you can't just quit." He says, as Jim starts to laugh. "Of course I can! I've been here longer than any of you besides Henry and William. Those two are goofballs. I had to work with them to design the buildings. They aren't easy to work with." Jim starts coughing in the middle of his laughter, and continues with "Besides, William and that son of his are… monsters! I don't even know if they've known what one another has done! But I certainly do!" Jim closes his eyes in his chair. It's about 5:30 now. He decides to let Jim rest until his shift is up. Phone Guy sits on the floor and watches the cameras.
Nothing happens for the remaining time. All the animatronics are in the dining room, looking at the cameras, except for Foxy who is right outside the door. It's 6 AM now, Phone Guy pokes Jim's shoulder. "Jim, shift is over." Phone Guy says, as Jim slowly starts to wake up. Jim grabs one of the notebooks on the desk, and rips a page out. He then grabs one the pens and writes his name and I QUIT on the page. "Are you sure, Jim?" Phone Guy asks, as Jim nods. He opens the door and jumps at the sight of Foxy, but gets over it and walks down the hallway to Henry's office and opens the door. He puts that on the desk. Phone Guy walks to the front of the pizzeria and waits for Jim.
Jim eventually walks towards the door and Phone Guy wants to ask him one thing. "What exactly makes William and Dave… monsters?" Phone Guy asks, and Jim looks away for a moment, he can tell Jim isn't sure he wants to tell him. He then looks back. "Alright, I don't have any evidence for this… but I'm pretty sure Dave is responsible for the disappearances at the previous pizzeria and also the murder of John, who was the brand new technician, replacing Dave. He is the killer. I was there all week and he was acting odd. I thought nothing of it until John's dead body was found and he was the last person to see him in the back room. It was him. He killed John." Jim says, as Phone Guy can't believe what he's hearing. Jim then continues "Not entirely sure on this part, but I think he told his father and his father wasn't happy, resulting in the scars. Pretty sure his father was the one killed that child at Fredbear's, who also happened to be Henry's child, probably did it out of some sort of revenge plot towards Henry. I don't care anymore, but I'm getting out of here. I wasn't told William and his son would be here every day." Jim walks out of the pizzeria, and that happened to be the last time Phone Guy ever saw him.
Phone Guy's shift doesn't start until 8, and that's when the place opens. He sits in one of the booths for a few hours. Are Dave and William really killers? They are odd, but would they ever go that far? Phone Guy has to look into this. He has another two hours before people start showing up. He walks nears the backroom of the pizzeria, and notices the door is open. The shining purple light is still there. He looks inside and sees a flashlight laying on the ground illuminating purple. Phone Guy picks it up and turns it off. First pink, now purple? That's odd, whoever is using these flashlights must be playing with him. He puts the purple flashlight up next to the pink one. Phone Guy doesn't see anything for a moment, but he then finds a journal. He opens it to the first page and it says "William Afton". He doesn't want to read this. He closes the book. He can't read that. He just can't. That'd be going against his employer. Even if there were things to prove him guilty in this book, he just can't. There's something holding him back. The only question is, how would this get here? Is the man with the purple flashlight trying to leave him a hint?
Phone Guy felt like he could do it, but he just can't. He doesn't have the power to look into this thing. Betraying his employer is not something he can do. He is loyal. Phone Guy walks back to the booth and sits down. He puts his head on the table and starts sleeping. A very deep sleep.
Phone Guy wakes up, but he's in a different room. He's in a security office in a different looking Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. He's never been here before. He then hears his own voice, echoing. It's not coming out of his mouth, but from around him. It's like he's in some sort of trance. He's giving someone information, but he's not entirely sure who, it sounds like he's giving the new night guard info. That's impossible though, because the security office looks nothing the same. He hears himself talk about how he's going to try to hold out. Hold out for what? Then before he can even try to figure it out, it goes quiet. Too quiet. He then hears SAVE THEM over and over again, getting louder and louder each time with the sound of more people joining in, it doesn't sound like adults, it sounds like children. Then all of a sudden, a Golden Freddy that looks a lot like Fredbear comes into the office with him and jumps at his face. All he can see is Golden Freddy's face and hear him scream. He then wakes up and starts looking around. He is quite panicked.
William then comes around the corner once again, coming out of nowhere after one of his dreams. It's now 7:55 AM. William sits on the other side of the booth. "You can't." William says with a smile, as Phone Guy rubs his eyes and then looks at him weirdly after stopping. "What?" Phone Guy asks, as William laughs "You can't keep sleeping on the job, sleepyhead." He says, as Phone Guy laughs kinda nervously. "Oh, yeah. Well, technically, I'm not on the job yet." He says, as William laughs. William then says "Well, I saw our good friend Jim quit this morning. Good guy, really enjoyed him. Any idea why he left?" He asks, with his face getting serious. "Oh, uh… he said that he didn't like the direction the company was going." Phone Guy says, as William smiles. He can tell he doesn't believe that. "Alright, thanks for the info." William stands up and walks away. That was weird. What did that dream mean? Save them? What was with the Golden Freddy? Too much confusion. Maybe it'll all make sense one day, after all, William did say dreams could predict the future.
Save them was quite an odd thing though, what does that mean? Save who? and from what? Phone Guy then looks over and sees all four of the animatronics, even Foxy, staring right at him. "Now… that isn't normal." Phone Guy says to himself. He walks away to find help putting the animatronics away. He walks up to Henry, who is just now walking in with Charlie. "Hey, uh… Henry, can you give me a hand with these animatronics?" Phone Guy asks, Henry nods, walks back to his office, puts Charlie down, and then helps Phone Guy put the animatronics back. When they're putting Foxy back, he opens the back of his head and take
s out one of the chips inside of him to stop him from operating. Phone Guy walks out of Pirate Cove, and Henry does as well. "We're all going to miss Jim." Henry says, as he walks away. Phone Guy walks back to the front. He sees no Dave today. The families are already coming in though, so I guess they're missing another guard for today.
A few hours pass, and Phone Guy sees Phone Guy's Boss behind the counter, and he motions for him to come over. "Hey, have you seen Dave?" Phone Guy asks, Phone Guy's Boss says "I think he took the day off. He wasn't feeling good." Phone Guy nods and says "Did you also hear about Jim, he left today." Phone Guy's Boss responds "Yeah, I did hear about that." Phone Guy thinks for a moment before asking the last thing. "So, I wanted to ask you a question, did Dave work at the previous Freddy Fazbear's?" Phone Guy's Boss nods, but keeps a serious face. "Yeah, that was before he got those scars. Can barely recognize him now. He was the technician. Was about to lose his job, but the place closed down later that week anyways, so it didn't really matter. His father invited him back this time though. Same as me. Why do you ask?" He says, as Phone Guy responds nervously with "Well, Jim mentioned him being the man behind those accidents." Phone Guy's Boss laughs "No, no. The killer was caught in a death trap. Killed himself. His name was John. Wasn't there for too long either. Seems like a lot of murders for a guy that died on his first day there, but we don't want to acknowledge that. Killer was caught according to Fazbear Entertainment." Phone Guy's Boss says. Phone Guy thought that was messed up. "Well, thanks for answering my question. I better get back to watching the floor." Phone Guy says, Phone Guy's Boss nods and walks off and back to the counter.
Looks like Jim might've been right. Dave might have been the killer. He can't say anything about it though. Fazbear Entertainment won't allow that. Plus he'd lose his job. Why is Fazbear Entertainment so shady? Well, I guess it's because the actual CEO is pretty shady. William Afton is not the most open guy. Apparently his son, and maybe even him, might be a killer. This is not a good sign. Not at all. Something is going to go down, and soon. Phone Guy watches after Charlie, and she's playing around with all her friends. Phone Guy smiles, but he has to keep an all around look. He watches the floor for a few hours and sees nothing odd. He watches William walk out of the pizzeria early once again. He doesn't have his journal with him either. I guess he either forgot it was here, or somebody left it there for somebody to find. The man with the purple flashlight, who is he? Is he the same as the man with the pink one? I guess he'll figure it out tomorrow if he gets a call early in the morning again.
It's time to close. A normal day, except for what happened in the morning. The morning always seems to be strange. Possibly it's because nobody else is around and the animatronics know that? That'd be odd for a machine to know something like that. Plus the whole save them thing, that has to mean something. No matter, time to go home and rest. Phone Guy held the door open for everyone once again, except for Dave and William who were no longer there. He waited there for a moment, then realized he was holding the door open for nobody anymore. Jim wasn't coming back. Phone Guy walked outside and to his car. He began to drive away, but as he drove off he swore he saw a shining light from the pizzeria from the corner of his eye. Oh well, it's too late to go back now. Phone Guy heads home, and goes to bed.
