Oh look, it's another one of those!
The six mares, two earth ponies, two pegasis, one unicorn and an alicorn, were sitting around. Twilight Sparkle, princess of friendship, and alicorn, kept trying to adjust her purple butt to the seat she was in. It kept sliding and going deeper into the soft fabric. She couldn’t get a confortable grip on the seat.
“So you’re telling me, you took a job as a security guard? In a building that is so cheap they don’t even keep their lights on at night?”
Twilight scoffed at the words of her friend, still trying to get her butt into a comfortable position, she looked, annoyed, at the eyes of the other mare.
“Yes, Rainbow, that’s exactly what I did. Pay attention!”
The futon was going to get banished to somewhere wet and moody for sure! Twilight finally had enough of that, and pulled herself into the ground. Why she had chosen to get onto the puffy futon, when she was taller than her friends, was behind her.
“But why?”
Why? That was a good question, but at her agitated state, Twilight wasn’t in the mood to answer.
“...I mean....” – The mare kept going - “It’s not like you need the money or anything, you’re a princess!”
“So?”
“Well you don’t need the money....right?”
Twilight Sparkle blew some air through her nostrils, of course she didn’t need the money! She was rich, she could buy whatever she wanted! But still.
“I’ve been hearing about other ponies doing this....and I wanted to try it!”
They all looked at one another, then at her.
“And that wouldn’t, perhaps, be in your special secret fanfic folder?” – Rarity inquired, while giving out a small giggle.
Twilight got blood red. No matter how many times she insisted that she didn’t have a secret fanfic folder, everyone knew the truth. They had once found her, in a messy sticky situation. Twilight had guaranteed them that that was perfectly normal of her to read for hours, but that didn't explain why she had started shipping her friends.
“No!”
Rarity rolled her eyes.
“Whatever you say, sweetheart.”
The day....or rather the night had come, it was time for Twilight shift at Freddy’s to start. Despite the manager having told her to pay attention, she had decided to bring a book. Like anyone was going to try and rob this place. It was practically falling apart!
She got into the room where she was supposed to keep an eye out for things out of the ordinary. Twilight was prepared to handle anything, no matter the creepiness it would have. She quickly got her book, and starting reading. Looking at the monitors from minute to minute.
At first she didn’t notice anything too unusual. The lights keep flickering, which made her have to stop reading her book, and that was annoying, but a quick lighting spell from her horn and everything was all right again. There didn’t seem to be any movement and Twilight rolled her eyes, it seemed as if, in actuality, the stuff she had read, wasn’t all that true.
The power seemed to be going down rather quickly, but Twilight wasn’t truly worried about that, she had her magic, after all. The power wasn’t really necessary. The legal disclaimer had warned her that the animatronics contraptions seemed to be walking around at night, but she hadn’t seen one move, not until now, at least.
As she was a fast reader she read the book before the lights turned completely off, and the doors opened. When they opened, she sighed. How much of a cheapskate could you be to turn off the lights?
She got up of the chair she was sitting on, her butt sore, and she didn’t send the chair to the same dark and wet place she had sent the futon, because the chair belonged to the company, and she’d be fired.
She ignored the flashlight and lighted the way on her own. She walked around, bored out of her mind. There didn’t seem to be all that much movement. She decided to wait. So she stood in a corner, waiting for any sudden movements.
When there was something closing on her, she simply stared at it. This animatronic thing wasn’t scary at all, it could have been, if she didn’t have any light, but she was lining the whole walkway, as it stood, it just looked fake and silly. It moved towards her. She simply stepped out of the way as one of them passed by her. It didn’t seem to have any peripheral vision.
It was her job to keep them on the building, but the doors had opened.
No wonder they needed a security guard, the doors opened at the middle of the night, why not just install an old lock and key? She didn’t get it
She put herself in front of the animatronic puppet, and, when it tried to attack her, she pushed it with his magic. Back to its place. It kept moving, so she just turned her back on it and immobilized it with basic magic she had learned as a filly. Why no one had ever thought of that was beyond her.
She looked around, it seemed as if they were all closing in on her. Who had programmed all their free roaming skills to stalk her? Whoever it had been, that person was a moron. They closed in on her. She just teleported across the room.
They kept following her and following her. She was getting pretty tired of this. She powered her magic and sent a shockwave that destroyed every single animatronic, shocking the walls, and creating a bang.
Every animatronic puppet destroyed she simply got off. Looking at the rising sun.
She shock her head.
“I don’t see what’s so scary or hard about this”.
Of course she was fired, and forced to pay the damages, she did so, and put in a little extra for some decent programming. And there was never a need for a night guard again. And everyone rejoiced, because Freddy’s was no longer nightmare fuel.
