The Shadow Bonnie
New Location same Town
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe sound of wind whistling through tree branches filled the air as Will marched through what felt like an endless forest, a dark blob with bunny ears was spinning between his hooves like a shark fin in the water, happily humming as he followed after Will
"Not too long now good buddy," Shadow Bonnie assured Will "I can't wait to feel your pulse slow to a stop in my hands, it's gonna be euphoric," Will showed no sign of having heard his personal Demon and instead chose to keep walking. Shadow Bonnie in turn chose to keep talking "So, how do you plan to steal from the richest pony in Ponyville?" Shadow pondered aloud "Gonna sneak through the back door maybe?"
"Shut up," Will demanded angrily, breaking the long silence between the two "FIlthy's going to try and use the book to make more 'AI's" So he'd probably have it hidden in that new Fazbear restaurant of his, it must be why he's re-opening in Ponyville so soon after the disaster that was me, the place will fail but he'll use my name to orchestrate a few more disappearances," as Will chuckled like the mad pony he was Shadow Bonnie sent the information of Wills plans to Lolbit.
Filthy was hard at work, overseeing the installation of Lolbit at the new Freddy Fazbears in Ponyville, the location had already been all but set up. Freddy and his crew had all been fully repaired and set up, the kitchen was fully stocked with cutlery, and the arcade machines were all up and running. so far the only thing missing was a staff, food, and Lolbit.
"What's our time looking like?" FIlthy asked the mare in charge of making sure all Lolbit instances were set up properly.
"We've hit a small snag," She reported without delay "Lolbit requires a little too much energy to efficiently run, we've solved that issue, but we'll be looking at limited power after hours to keep her running affordably,"
"Easy fix, just warn the Nightgard in advance once we've hired one, any other problems?"
"No sir," The Mare replied diligently "So far we're looking for a Grand opening in four days, just in time for Nightmare Night," An echoing laugh echoed thought-out the Pizzarea, and Filthy in turn chuckled.
"Seem's Lolbit finds something about Nightmare night amusing," FIlthy left his workers to work and made his way inside the office, taking a seat and picking up the Tablet connected to the Security Cameras, after a moment Lolbit flickered to life on the screen.
"William Afton thinks your hiding the book here," Lolbit declared casually "He's also undergone plastic surgery and had a few other fun bits of work done, do me a favor and keep the position of Nightgaurd available until I pick a pony will you?" Lolbit pleaded with a smile "I can think of no better way for Will to spend his last night in Equestria,"
"For you my dear friend, I think I can make that happen," Filthy chuckled "I Suppose I should move the book here then?"
"No," Lolbit replied simply "The book itself is now a moot point, feel free to keep it or destroy it, it had nothing of actual use inside of it, it was just supposed to lure Will to this location, but his insanity has already done that part of the job for me," Filthy got to his feet and left Lolbit to its devices.
Filthy made his to the kitchen, but upon reaching the door, looked over to the currently active Camera, looking over the Fazbear crew on the stage, Filthy slowly but surely made his way around the room, taking great care to make sure he wasn't seen by any of the Animatronics on stage, the camera system, or his employees, Flithy continued in this fashion until he arrived at the Parts and service room, he slowly opened the door and slipped inside.
Filthy was greeted by the sight of the dirty yellow Rabbit that was the Spring Bonnie Animatronic, he quickly looked up to the Camera, and upon confirming it had not yet been hooked up to the rest of the system yet, as per his personal orders to the staff, he carefully slipped a small metal disk inside of the Animatronic rabbit one good ear. He smiled as he pulled down his leftmost suit sleeve and pressed a button on his watch, a dim red light emanated from the Robot's ear.
"Good," He said, seemingly satisfied with the results he hid the watch and took care that nothing was looking at him before leaving and going back the way he had come, upon reaching the kitchen again he turned away from it and headed back to the front entrance.
"Alright, let's pick up the pace," Filthy called out to his workers, I want this place fully operational before Nightmare Night,"
Twilight sat alone on her throne, staring silently at the Cutie Map, Next to her the small throne that had once belonged to Spike had been turned into a memorial, A Picture of Spike eating a Gem had been placed on top of a Velvet Pillow, Rarity had made it a habit to stop by at least once every day and set down a single gem, saying it would have definitely been the first one he'd had snuck out of the basket during their gem hunts.
Fluttershy had been given Spike's old Sleeping Basket and had quickly turned it over to Discord when he had begged her for it, Fluttershy had since then reported that on her last visit to his home for tea she had spotted the basket now had
plushy of Spike dressed as a wizard that shot spells at random towards Discord and would frequently insult the Draqonquis should he get too close to it, but had been very polite to Fluttershy upon inspection.
Sugar Cube Corner had added a new Cupcake to their menu for Dragons that was topped with amethyst and Jade and had been named the Crystal Hero's usual, the Cupcake quickly attracted a large amount of Crystal Ponies, who began flocking to Ponyville upon news of their hero's passing reaching the Empire.
Twilight's head was floating with thoughts of how all of her friends were handling the events that had befell them only a few weeks prior and could only muster up one single thought.
"Why are they all pretending you gone?" Twilight asked, now looking at her wrist, Lolbit looked back at her with a smile, but gave no response to Twilight's question, her way of saying she didn't have one to give. "You're a little different, maybe a lot different, but you're still you, just because you're a little broken now doesn't mean your not you," Lolbit once again gave no sign that it had even Heard Twilight.
"What should I do?" Twilight begged of the watch, "Just...tell me something please?" Twilight fully expected the little fox on her watch to continue existing without a word, as such she jumped slightly when Lolbit actually gave her a response.
"You should watch out for Filthy," Lolbit said calmly, Twilight looked at the watch before the Lolbit cocked its head, as though thinking for a moment before continuing to speak "Insufficient data on my own creation, verbal cues indicate whatever made me has caused you trauma, current statistics indicate 87% chance Filthy Rich will attempt to recreate me, the potential margin of error in calculations is fourteen," By the time Lolbit has finished speaking Twilight was already running out of the throne room and heading to the front entrance of her castle.
a Mare sat in silence, looking over the single application for a new Night Guard, She groaned as she set it down, the name Sweetie Belle was neatly written in the name category
"One pony in this entire town applies, and it's a child," She groaned "Filthy isn't going to be happy about this," The Mare looked at the Application again, assuming Sweetie has applied under the pretenses of getting into the Pizzarea with a discount. The Mare heard a knock on the door and set the one application aside.
"Come in," She called out, the door opened and one of her employees entered with another single application, The mare was about to take it when her Screen buzzed to life with Lolbit.
"The Application for one Chestnut Blaze for the role of Nightguard has been accepted," Lolbit decided, the Mare let out a low sigh.
"Finally, this his?" She asked as she took the application and found the name Chestnut Blaze on it, "Great, no criminal record of any kind then?"
"The Name Chestnut Blaze is clean," Lolbit assured the mare with a smile "Congratulations, the Ponyville branch of Freddy Fazbears Pizza is fully staffed for its opening day," the mare leaned back in her chair happily as she waved off her employee to get back to clean up duty. Lolbit disappeared from the screen and the Lolbit AI in Manehattan reappeared on its primary monitor.
"And now the games can commence," Lolbit said with a smile and she held out her hand and began moving it like she was playing with a puppet, to anyone looking at her screen that would be all they could see, but in Lolbits Vision she could see past the limits the screen provided and was looking at a small Puppet and a dark Black Freddy, neither of whom seemed happy about the predicament.
"You shouldn't be doing this," The Puppet pleased to Lolbit.
"Yeah," The Nightmare said angrily "Will need to Die, sticking him in that Rabbit will just make him more of a problem down the line!" The Lolbit swiftly moved her hand and grabbed both of the small figments of her mind before holding them up to her. "You two aren't in charge anymore," She said angrily before holding up the hand that she moving like it was holding onto a puppet, in her vision corrupted stings of code wrapped around her hand and Shadow Bonnie was moving according to her commands. "I'm the puppet master now, and you two aren't needed for this part of the show, now sit back and watch my masterpiece unfold," Lolbit threw her two old forms aside and gave her attention back to the tiny Shadow Bonnie, who waved at her before going about being controlled. Lolbit listened intently as Shadow Began speaking and in turn could hear what he could.
"You'll be gone soon," The voice of Will said to the Rabbit "And once I'm free, this pathetic little town will know my wrath,"
"Oh, so sure of yourself," Shadow laughed back "I can't want to see your opening act, or is it your closing act!?" Shadow chuckled as Lolbit heard the sound of Will angrily pulling up a chair and doing his best to ignore what he thought was a figment of his own demented mind come to life.
"This is going to be so much fun," Lolbit decided with a smile, ignoring the cries of the Nightmare and the Puppet that her plan was born from just as much Madness as Wills.
