Hello! I finally got my account back from the void, and glad to be writing again!

I love FNAF and thought, well geeze THAT would be an easy series to crossover with, anybody could be a night guard. And so I had the idea to make poor little Yugi do it :D

I started this before FNAF 3 was even announced, so there's no Springtrap or much of anything else that was revealed in that game (save for maybe a bit that sneaked in at the end, as I cannot ignore information if I can remember it. Don't hold it against me!). I don't claim any of the events I describe of the animatronics' past as fact, they're a combination of mostly theories I've heard about (a large portion inspired by MatPat's Game Theory on YouTube), and whatever I thought would make for an interesting read. It's taken me a long time, but I do hope you enjoy SAVETHEM!

Yugi stared at the same math problem for what felt like an eternity. He was having difficulty focusing after finishing the homework he had in his other subjects, and it was already two in the morning. He glanced at the staircase, imagining his bed upstairs. Maybe it won't kill me to skip math this one time…

But then he imagined Atem scolding him for it, despite the fact that Atem probably wouldn't even ask.

Yugi sighed, and gave it another go. He eventually figured it out, but got depressed all over again when he got to the next one. And even more so when he realized he still had to do it fourteen more times. I hate college.

Yugi was studying to be a game designer. Not for video games, but for board and card games. But he still took the basic courses alongside the necessary ones for his career, to help him be more well-rounded in the long run. Nights like this made him regret that decision though. Especially when he could probably survive with the money Atem made from being a famous duelist and Grandpa made from the shop. He hated the idea of taking without contributing, though. They still lived with Yugi's grandpa since he was really getting up there in years, and there was no way Yugi would ever suggest he go into a retirement home. Not with everything he'd done for Yugi. He couldn't even help Grandpa with the shop, since his only time to spend with Atem happened during store hours, and even after Atem went to bed Yugi still had school.

Atem frequently worked the late shift at one of Kaiba's casinos. Yugi was shocked when Kaiba approached the King of Games with the position, because they were always such huge rivals. But Kaiba explained that someone famous working at his establishment would really rake in the crowds, and the money.

"What if I lose?" Atem asked, having a secret but deep-rooted distaste for games of luck.

"Who cares? You actually should lose, at least the first few games. Get their hopes up. Then crush them with everything you have when the time is right!" Kaiba responded. Atem frowned.

"You're not worried about me losing my title to someone with beginner's luck?"

"Not a chance. That title is yours until you lose at Duel Monsters, at my hand! That said, you won't be playing Duel Monsters."

"Fine. But I want a late shift, so I can still spend time with my friends."

Yugi sighed again and forced his concentration back to math. He powered through the next five problems. Atem should be home around 7… I've gotta finish this and get some sleep so we can spend some time together before school. He pressed on again.

"Yugi, Aibou, wake up." Upon hearing Atem's voice Yugi forced his eyes open. "Hey, Babe. Thanks for waking me up! What do you wanna do today?" he smiled.

Atem frowned, "You look exhausted. You sure you don't want to sleep more before class starts?"

"Of course I'm sure! This is the only time I get to see you. Let's relax with a movie, since you just got back from work. I'll make us breakfast!"

Atem smiled at his enthusiasm. "You're right. If we didn't make this effort then we'd never see each other."

Yugi cooked them pancakes for the first half hour of the movie, to save a bit of time. Class didn't start until six, but Atem still needed to get plenty of sleep before his next shift.

He went up to bed around 2PM, leaving Yugi to try and power through the homework that remained. He was ashamed to admit that he couldn't make it through all of the math after all.

While he worked on the last problem his grandfather came in, "Yugi, my friend recently started his own restaurant business!" he said with excitement in his voice.

"Really? That's awesome Grandpa! What kind of restaurant is it?"

"A pizzeria, like when he was younger! They've got an arcade, good food, and of course, singing animatronics!"

"Animatronics? Grandpa, those things haven't been 'in' since the 90s…"

"Which is why they're due for a comeback, he says! Why don't you and Atem go check it out tomorrow?"

"I dunno, Grandpa… that doesn't really sound like our thing, even with an arcade."

"Hoho, you might be surprised! Just do me a favor and check it out!"

Yugi eyed him suspiciously, "You didn't happen to promise your friend that the King of Games would be there, did you?"

"What? Of course not! I would do no such thing! How could you be suspicious of your poor, old grandfather?"

Yugi's gaze didn't waiver.

After a moment of silence, he gave in. "Alright, fine. It's only been open a few days, and it's doing pretty well! But he thought it might boost his business even further if the King of Games showed up…"

Yugi sighed. "I'll tell him and let him decide. But don't you guilt trip him if he decides he doesn't want to go!"

"Of course not, of course not! He even promised not to pester or announce you guys! You can blend right in if you want! Here's the address." He handed him a small torn notebook page. Yugi took a look. It wasn't too far from where they lived, only fifteen minutes by train. "Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria? What in the heck is a Fazbear?"

"He was an icon in the 80s! Or so Cecil tells me. My friend- Cecil- he found Freddy and his friends in the basement of the building he bought. He had plans to build a pizzeria anyway, but finding those guys just set off a light bulb for him! He couldn't find anything that would legally stop him from using them or the name, since the original business went out a couple decades ago and he couldn't get a hold of anyone from the original company. But maybe a few people looking for a nostalgia trip will make their way in, too!"

Yugi rolled his eyes. Why bother to create something your own when you could just take someone else's once successful idea with no consequence? Guess it's not for me to judge. After all, they used to be famous. Apparently.

The next morning when Atem got home Yugi pitched the idea to him. "What are animatronics?" was his first question.

"Robots. But not as cool as it sounds. They're basically programmed to sing and do something that vaguely resembles dancing. Maybe wish you a happy birthday."

"Sounds interesting. Let's check it out!"

"R-really? Well, if you actually want to…"

Sorry about the short start, the rest will be longer. Stay tuned!
