The white dots stared down the hall towards Scootaloo and the others. There were six dots, two for every person in the room. Scootaloo could hear her heart racing. Then the heavy footsteps started getting louder as they began again and the dots started getting closer. Scootaloo looked where Sweetiebelle and Applebloom used to be and saw them starting to crawl back through the vents. "Where are you guys going," Scootaloo asked.

"We're going to go hide because we heard the stories Scootaloo. We need to get out off here right now," Sweetiebelle said. Scootaloo nodded and quickly followed Applebloom. As they entered the vents the heavy footsteps could be heard as they entered the room. Then screeching could be heard in the rhythm of, what seemed to be, talking. She heard them rummage around the room a bit and then banging could be heard. They were crawling through the vents. Scootaloo turned around to see a Bonnie crawling along the vents. Then it started screeching and picked up speed. Scootaloo started crawling faster. They arrived at an intersection and they took a right. She hoped that they could lose it in the vents. They kept crawling and the screeches started getting louder.

Then Scootaloo felt something grip her ankle. She turned around and saw Bonnie again. It's hand was around her ankle. It screeched and started pulling her towards it. Scootaloo started screaming and Applebloom turned around to see what was all the commotion. As she turned around she saw Bonnie pulling Scootaloo towards it. She grabbed Scootaloo by the hands and started trying to pull Scootaloo towards her. Then Bonnie started screeching louder and yanked on Scootaloo's ankle. Scootaloo felt her ankle pop and her body slide across the vent. She also felt Applebloom let go and looked towards her. Applebloom was being pulled by an animatronic. She couldn't see which one it was but it must have been stronger her than Applebloom. Scootaloo started kicking at Bonnie and felt her foot make contact. She looked at it and saw she had kicked it right in the eye. Bonnie let go and yanked the foot right out of it's eye socket. Scootaloo felt more bones pop as Bonnie threw her foot against the vent. Scootaloo looked back towards Applebloom but didn't see any sign of her. She turned back towards Bonnie and saw that it was crawling away. Scootaloo followed it while it screeched in pain. As it crawled it put it's hands on the side of the vent.They arrived at the intersection and it continued going straight. It must have reached out to far to far to realize that it missed the turn it wanted to take. She followed it into what looked like the boiler room with the furnace sitting on the far end of the room. Pipes stuck out of walls and on the right side was a door. The Bonnie crawled out and started gripping the left side of the room. Scootaloo noticed it must be half blind and can only see it's right side. Scootaloo crawled out and noticed that Bonnie was searching for an exit. It started yanking on pipes hoping to find a door handle. Scootaloo chased after it and it was soon at the furnace. It yanked on the furnace handle and it opened. The lock snapping as it pulled. Scootaloo watched as it walked right into the furnace. Scootaloo quickly ran over and shut the door. Inside Bonnie started screeching. Scootaloo watched, from the grates in the door, as the animatronic went up in flames. It's suit burning and the endoskeleton becoming more and more visible. It started banging against the walls and the door. Then the screeching became slowed and so did it's movements. Then it screeched the loudest it could and Bonnie fell over. The only noises now were the crackling of the flames, the sparking of wires, and the generator in the room. Scootaloo backed away towards the vent. She entered it and started crawling back to the office. Maybe she could locate the others using the cameras.

She arrived in the office and picked up the mask. She slid it on hoping that if she put it on the animatronics would think she was one of them. She picked up the tablet and started switching through the cameras. She then saw the most horrific sight. Applebloom being torn apart by the animatronics. Her screams being heard as each limb was slowly torn from her body. The blood oozed out of gashes while blood squirted out of the torn arteries. Her screams became gurgled as the animatronics began tearing her head right of the body. Then the screams stopped and Freddy lifted up the head and slammed it down on a table. Freddy then crushed the head and looked up at the camera. Then the camera screen went black and on the top of the screen it said TRANSMISSION INTERRUPTED. Then the camera came back online and Freddy was right in front of the camera his smile as black as the darkness in his eyes. Scootaloo jumped out of her seat and started to scream but stopped herself. She then began searching through the other cameras for Sweetiebelle.

She found her sitting behind a little boy animatronic holding three plastic balloons and a sign it's name was Balloon Boy and she hated it the most amongst all the newer ones. It always said hello or hi in the most annoying way possible and it said it all the time. Sometimes it would laugh and Scootaloo would get shivers up her spine. Scootaloo set the tablet down and started down the hall. She was still wearing the animatronic mask so she hoped that she wouldn't end up getting killed. She turned the corner and came face to face with The Puppet. It's smile as wide as ever and it's eyes had white dots for pupils. it had rose red cheeks and it's face was pale. The puppet stared at her and Scootaloo held her breath. The puppet reached out and touched the mask. It seemed to be petting the mask. It then pointed towards the main party room and spoke one word," leave." Then it turned around and disappeared among the shadows. Scootaloo let out a sigh of relief and began moving back down the hall. She didn't know why but the puppet wanted her to leave. It confused her and she didn't like it. So she decided as soon as she got Sweetiebelle they were leaving rhis place. She soon arrived in the main party room. She started towards where Sweetibelle was. When she heard the footsteps Sweetiebelle's head poked out of her hiding place and then her head disappeared again. Scootaloo took off the mask and slid it across the floor towards Sweetiebelle. It hit the Balloon Boy's foot and Scootaloo heard a slight sigh of relief. She walked over and was greeted with a hug from Sweetiebelle.

"Oh thank god you are all right. I thought one of those things had gotten you," Sweetiebelle said as she let go of Scootaloo.

"They didn't get me but they did get Applebloom," Scootaloo said as she picked up the mask.

"Oh no what happened to her?"

"She was torn apart limb by limb." Scootaloo put the mask back on and started looking around for anything for Sweetiebelle to wear. She spotted The Mangle and went over to it. She took the mask off and started pulling out all the stuff inside. When she was done she handed it to Sweetiebelle.

"Well at least i'm not in any danger now," Sweetiebelle said as she put it on. They began to walk towards the exit when they both heard metal creaking. Scootaloo and Sweetiebelle turned around to see The Mangle crawling towards them. It started picking up speed as it got closer. Then The Mangle pounced as it screeched it's mouth opened wide as it left the ground.
