It was raining lightly in Ponyville, the sun could just be seen in the sky as the town residents went about their daily routines. Walking down the streets was Rumble, on his way home from school, his ears down as he looked up at the sky, thinking about all the times he and Pip use to walk home together. Suddenly Rumble felt his body go forward as he tripped over a rock and face planted in the mud, his saddlebag falling off his back.

"Dangit," He muttered as he got up and whipped his face off, looking around he failed to see his Saddlebag when he felt something on his back and turned around, finding his bag back on his back, without a speck of mud on it. As Rumble looked around in confusion a Shadow slid past him unnoticed. Shadow Bonnie took form in a nearby alley, having been unable to resist the urge to help the child he had rushed out and snatched the bag out of the air and then disappeared, making It land on the child's back. Shadow Bonnie turned away and continued making his way to his first destination. The now condemned Freddy Juniors had been emptied of all Fazbear merchandise and was set to be demolished. With most of the items having been sent to the new location or to the Museum.

Shadow Bonnie turned into a blotch on the ground and slid under the door, he popped into existence and looked around the now-empty building. He walked over to Kids cove and looked at the spot where Mangle had once been for a moment before putting his hand in his chest and pulling out a few flowers, he placed one in Kids cove before going to where Balloon Colt had once stood and placed one there as well, and finally placed three on the main stage.

"I'd have gone crazy without you five," Shadow said "I don't know if any of you are still alive in my subconscious or something, but just in case I never see any of you again, you were dame good friends, regardless of if you were real or not," Shadow gave a salute before sinking into the ground and slid back out the door and stopped once outside. He took a deep breath and found what he was looking for, it was faint but he could smell the magic that had been used to make him and the others, Due to all the cleaning and what not it was all but gone inside, but he could still smell the Teleport William had made when he had set himself outside for the guards to see.

"I'm coming for you Afton," he said before rocketing off, following the faint smell that William had left behind on his way to the hospital,"

William sat in silence as he ate what little he had managed to swipe from the nearby restaurant without being noticed. His arms were covered in Dirty bandages and the scars all across his body stung, but he smiled as he ate with his magic, his arms no longer able to hold much of anything.

"Wonder how I'll top this," He muttered after swallowing the last of his food and looking at the dingy place he had made his own. it was a small shed in Manehattan. It was hidden in a cluster of thorns bushes, deep in a park he had played at as a child. He had set the place up a long time ago in case he ever needed to lay low. He had a single spell in place to help hide his presence from any unicorns that might be trying to track him. "5 Children and one Adult, not too shabby if I do say so myself. Well, first things first I need a change of face. Just gotta wait for Stingy to find a good spot to hide me during the procedure and I'll be right as rain. Will chuckled to himself as he used his magic to prop up his arms and he waited for his friend to give him the all-clear.

Shining Armor made his way into Fazbear Entertainment Headquarters, thinking over the excuse he and Cadance had come up with so that he could observe the Ai that had once been his younger brother. Keeping his composure he waited for the Receptionist to buzz him in and he was teleported directly to Filthy, who was overseeing repairs after the massive power surge. On the screen before him was Lolbit who was present across many screens talking to multiple people at once. Shining waited as Filthy finished talking to Lolbit.

"...and keep an eye out for the 'Virus' that caused the surge in the first place," Filthy said before turning to Shining as Lolbit Turned it's attention to doing as it was told. "Mr.Armor, to what do I owe the pleasure?"

"After the....Willian Incident it was brought to my attention that due to so many problems being solved by my sister in recent years most of Equestria's armed forces have let themselves become fat and lazy, while my Wife helps head an initiative to weed out the lazy and replace them with those with great dedication to protection I have been assigned to guard you and anything of value you may own in the even that Will makes a ploy on you or your family.

"How thought-full, But I must..."

"This is a decree from Princess Celestia," Shining added as he levitated a scroll to Filthy "Saying no is not an option for you, while she had been very lenient on you, one of the victims who died to William was very near and dear to her, as such she is very, very determined that your Lolbit Ai be up to the job of keeping what happening in Ponyville from ever happening again, and I'm here to make sure you don't skip out on that promise, Understood?"

"Yes," Filthy said, looking completely unfazed by Shining armors Words "Well then I guess we should start by introducing you to Lolbit in her purest form, if you'll follow me," Filthy began walking, and Shining followed suit, his arms crossed as he looked at the Lolbit's surrounding him, instead of being taken to one of the ones in the room Filthy lead him to his office and showed him the entrance hidden behind a painting. Shining made his way down the stairs and looked in silence at the large glowing heart housing Lolbit's Ai Core, a Large screen showed a full-body image of Lolbit instead of just her head. She was laying on her stomach and casually kicking her legs as she hummed a merry tune.

"Lolbit my dear," Filthy greeted, Shining's ear twitched as he reminded himself that as far as he was aware Filthy had no idea that Lolbit was actually Spike "Say hello to our new friend Shining armor, Shining say hello to Lolbit,"

"Charmed," Lolbit said as the screen flicked and she turned into a large version of her head "What do you require this day Aring Shimer," Shining looked at the screen in confusion and Filthy nervously chuckled.

"Still a few kinks," He said "We're still trying to work out how to integrate facial recognition into her software, She knows me and that's about all she's able to commit to long term memory," FIlthy readjusted his tie before motioning back up the stairs. "when the bugs are worked out you'll be the first to know my friend, meanwhile you should make yourself acquainted with the facility since you'll probably be staying with us for a long while," The two left, but not before Shining looked over his shoulder for one final look at Lolbit, who was back to being a full body image and was moving her hands around, as though playing with an invisible puppet. Shining left and Lolbit continued her hand moments for several minutes before Filthy returned.

"Shining Armor," She said simply "What might I ask is he doing here?"

"Order of the Princess, she wants you fully operational as a security unit, unfortunate but nothing we can't workaround," Lolbit chuckled and Filthy looked to her.

"He knows," She said simply "I could see it in his eyes, I don't know who he is, but he knows who I am,"

"What?" Filthy demanded, sweating a little "Fuck, Fuck, Fuck!"

"Calm yourself Rich," Lolbit said in a very calm tone, still moving her hands as though puppeting something "He will not make a move, proving I am what I am will only cause chaos across the country, and Celestia knows that, So long as we continue our plan he and those behind him will have no cards to play against us for quite some time,"

"Yes, yes of course," Filthy agreed "We were always planning of installing you in every Fazbear entertainment-owned property, we just have to slightly move up the time table, speaking of time table, have you...picked where it will happen yet?"

"Yes," Lolbit replied, as she stopped moving her hands and her face twisted into a grin "I've found him, I'll send you the location once I've figured where he'll be going, until then I plan to play with him for a little while," Lolbit began laughing, as she did so Shadow Bonnie began laughing as well as he looked down at Will from the shadows filling the upper level of the shed. William jumped at the demonic laughter, looking around as he lit his horn. Shadow Bonnie moved behind him and took form behind him.

"What's the matter?" Shadow asked, Will whirled around and shot a beam of magic, the magic hit Shadow Bonnie, who simply absorbed it into the Shadows that made his body. Will looked at the shadow creature standing before him and Shadow smiled and waved at him.

"Hi Buddy," He said in a merry tone "I've missed you, did you miss me?" Will said nothing as he tried to back away from the monster, only to find a wall behind him. "I suppose you could blast through the wall," Bonnie noted as he leaned in, "But-" Shadow Bonnie's head began slowly twisting in place as he talked "-then the royal guards would come running, and you'd be forced to pay for your crimes, maybe you'll be turned to stone and shattered, forced to live for eternity in the worst moment before death but with no release after, only more pain. Or maybe they'll do to you what you did to me Will," Will was sweating as Shadow Bonnie's head came full circle. Will began chuckling, Shadow Bonnie ignored this and leaned in.

"I assume you think this is all just a bad dream, or maybe a Nightmare?" Bonnie chuckled as Will kept laughing.

"You think I'm a fool, there's a Princess who rules Dreams, I've used many spells to keep me from dreaming when I sleep," Will continued laughing and Shadow Bonnie leaned in.

"You seem rather calm Will old boy, in fact, you seem to find all of this quite hilarious,"

"I'm no fool," William replied, a crazed look in his eyes as he stared at Shadow Bonnie "You're...You're Not Real!" Shadow Bonnie blinked at that one but continued smiling as Will kept talking "Hallucinations are a side effect of the anti Dream charm, So what are you supposed to be? my conscious or some shit?"

"Doesn't matter," Shadow Bonnie said, grinning at the opportunity Will had provided to him "But I am here, even if you don't notice you're forging me with your own magic Will," Will frowned and lit his horn and scanned Shadow Bonnie, who showed him only what he wanted Will to see, the very magic Will had just shot at him.

"Fuck," Will said "Turn off!" Will shut off his horn and it was Shadow Bonnie's turn to laugh.

"Oh no Will, I am you Conscious, but I don't want you to repent, or feel bad, I want you to die, Will," Will took a step further into the wall "Black magic has consequences, the more you use the stronger I get, and someday soon I'm gonna force your soul into the very suit that gave you those scars Will!" Shadow Bonnie laughed before making himself appear to dissipate, when in fact he only hide in Will's Shadow. Will was shaking in fear.

"No...no no no!" He screamed out as he swung his useless arms against a table, causing a few scars to lightly rip from under his bandages and cause blood to begin dripping from them. "My book," he said angrily "I burned it in the fire, I have to find another copy and find out how to get rid of my Tag along before They get rid of me," Will began breathing heavily as he thought of what to do before smiling.

"Filthy Rich, I know that Dragon spilled the beans to the Guards, and I bet Filthy got himself a copy of that book so he could make more "Ai's"!" William began chuckling.

Lolbit burst into life on Filthy office screen, making the colt jump.

"Sweet Celestia," He chuckled "Lolbit my dear how can..."

"William plans to break in and steal a book from you,"

"A book?" Filthy asked with a raised brow.

"Yes," Lolbit said with a smile, "I think he's going to like it, I've just finished writing it, I'm sending you the file, have it printed in secret and have Shining Armor find it," Lolbit had an evil glint in her eye. "Doing so will give him a false tinge of trust in you my friend, and will make our plan all the easier," Filthy smiled.

"I'll have it printed by Nightfall," he said with the same evil glint in his eye.
