Rosie's P.O.V.

This is the story of how I a job changed the rest of my life.

I'm Rosie Mills. I'm 23 years old, I have long blue and purple hair and blue eyes, with very pale skin, because I honestly don't like sunlight. I was kind of a loner growing up, only having a few close friends and my family to hang around with. But the only place I really fit in was at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. But my parents started to not let me go there anymore, so I just sort of floated around life, going in and out of depression until I became an adult.

My happiest memories of childhood was watching horror movies with my older brother, Matthew. And because of that, I'm both not scared of anything and incredibly paranoid.

But, I drove past Freddy Fazbear's Pizza a few weeks ago, and I noticed they were hiring. So I went in and got an interview, and I got a job there as the night watch security guard. I had a little bit of muscle mass and strength, plus I'm a quick thinker, fast runner and very tech savy.

But I had no idea of the horrors that would ensue in my new job.

I got to the pizzeria at 11:50 at night on a chilly Monday night in November, for my first night there. I was wearing my gray sweatshirt with a blue flower on it, with my blue skinny jeans and my converse, with not very much make up on, since I wasn't dressing up for anyone. No one else was there and all of the lights were off, so I unlocked the door using my key, and locked it behind me. I stood there for a few minutes for my eyes to adjust to the dark, and when they did, I saw on the counter near the entrance, a note and a flashlight.

I picked up the flashlight and clicked it on, and read the note.

"Rosie,

The power is limited, so use the flashlight when you're not in the office and if you need to use the bathroom, and don't turn on any lights in the building, except the office lights. You're shift ends at 6 AM, and please try to stay awake for your shift. I'm sorry I could there to greet you myself, but I don't really stick around after hours, and neither do the other employees. It's sort of a superstition. But, good luck and I will be there at 6 AM. Good night.

M. Schmidt."

I groaned in annoyance. My boss couldn't even stick around to wish me good luck for my first night? That's kinda rude. But, I guess that I'm on my own now.

I walked to the office where there was a monitor on a desk and a black desk chair, with two open doors on the side of the room, with steel doors hooked up to the doors, and a fan was on the shelf facing the desk, blowing cool air towards the desk. I sat on the chair and flipped up the monitor, checking the security cameras, and nothing looked too much different.

I jumped when the phone rang, but I didn't get up and answer it, because I knew the answering machine would, and the person calling would just record their message on the answering machine.

And sure enough, I heard the voice of a man on the phone. He sounded sorta sarcastic and nonchalant, but I listened anyways.

"Hello, hello? Uh, I wanted to record a message for you to help you get settled in on your first night. Um, I actually worked in that office before you. I'm finishing up my last week now, as a matter of fact. So, I know it can be a bit overwhelming, but I'm here to tell you there's nothing to worry about. Uh, you'll do fine. So, let's just focus on getting you through your first week. Okay?

Uh, let's see, first there's an introductory greeting from the company that I'm supposed to read. Uh, it's kind of a legal thing, you know. Um, "Welcome to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. A magical place for kids and grown-ups alike, where fantasy and fun come to life. Fazbear Entertainment is not responsible for damage to property or person. Upon discovering that damage or death has occurred, a missing person report will be filed within 90 days, or as soon property and premises have been thoroughly cleaned and bleached, and the carpets have been replaced."

Blah blah blah, now that might sound bad, I know, but there's really nothing to worry about. Uh, the animatronic characters here do get a bit quirky at night, but do I blame them? No. If I were forced to sing those same stupid songs for twenty years and I never got a bath? I'd probably be a bit irritable at night too. So, remember, these characters hold a special place in the hearts of children and we need to show them a little respect, right? Okay.

So, just be aware, the characters do tend to wander a bit. Uh, they're left in some kind of free roaming mode at night. Uh...Something about their servos locking up if they get turned off for too long. Uh, they used to be allowed to walk around during the day too. But then there was The Bite of '87. Yeah. I-It's amazing that the human body can live without the frontal lobe, you know?

Uh, now concerning your safety, the only real risk to you as a night watchman here, if any, is the fact that these characters, uh, if they happen to see you after hours probably won't recognize you as a person. They'll p-most likely see you as a metal endoskeleton without its costume on. Now since that's against the rules here at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, they'll probably try to...forcefully stuff you inside a Freddy Fazbear suit. Um, now, that wouldn't be so bad if the suits themselves weren't filled with crossbeams, wires, and animatronic devices, especially around the facial area. So, you could imagine how having your head forcefully pressed inside one of those could cause a bit of discomfort...and death. Uh, the only parts of you that would likely see the light of day again would be your eyeballs and teeth when they pop out the front of the mask, Heh.

Y-Yeah, they don't tell you these things when you sign up. But hey, first day should be a breeze. I'll chat with you tomorrow. Uh, check those cameras, and remember to close the doors only if absolutely necessary. Gotta conserve power. Alright, good night."

I widened my eyes. The animatronics could get up and walk around!? That's not possible, and I didn't even want to stick around for that. But, I took on this job, and I had to keep it. So, I would have to deal with it.

I checked the cameras again, but I noticed that Bonnie was missing. Now I was legitimately scared.

I lunged towards the right door to turn the lights on, and I choked on a scream as I saw a lit up Bonnie, staring down at me. She started to slowly walk towards me, when a golden bear appeared in front of me. I couldn't hold back a scream as the golden bear closed the doors, blocking Bonnie out.

"Please! Don't kill me!" I screamed in pure horror and fear.

The golden figure looked almost exactly like Freddy. Only this one had golden fur and pure black eyes with a blue top hat and blue tie. But that didn't make him any less terrifying.

He neared me, and with a cold and dead tone, said, "I'm not the bad guy. I'm just a bit surprising. It's not worth analyzing, but I've been here since the beginning."

I couldn't even scream from fear. I was frozen with fear.

"How are you alive!? Why are you here!? Please don't kill me!" I begged.

The golden bear laughed and said with a voice barely above a whisper, "Don't worry. You're not dying tonight. But don't get too comfortable. I'll always be here, watching you."

And in an instant, he was gone.
