Hey everybody! It's betabug01 here, and here it is! The finale of "What We Have In Common," and let me just start by saying a massive THANK YOU to everyone who's read, reviewed, and waited patently throughout this story. When I first started writing this, I never would've thought that it would take me over a year to do, let alone how much fun I'd have doing it! It really has been a blast, and will hopefully be the first of many stories that I write for you all. I really couldn't have done this without all the support you guys and gals have given me throughout this story. I honestly can't tell you how much it means to me that people have taken the time to read my work, follow the story as it continued to grow, and even leave reviews telling me what you liked and what I could do better. I cannot thank you all enough!

Now, I have some very specific 'thank-you's' that I'd like to give. First of all, I wanna give a huge, and I'm talk HUGE thank you to the one and only, Zerothekitsune! Without him, this story wouldn't be where it is today. He's been my main inspiration for becoming a writer, and has had some MAJOR impacts on this story. And when I say major impacts, I mean super, colossal, 'He-taught-me-how-to-space-out-these-stories-so-that-they-are-easier-and-more-appealing-to-read-and-you-should-totally-read,-review,-follow,-and fav-him-and-his-work-'cause-it's-super-good,' kinda impacts. Seriously, I cannot thank you enough Zero. You're the best!

Secondly, but just as important, I'd like to thank another fellow writer, who hasn't been AS much of an inspiration (though he still has inspired me a lot), but has helped changed my outlook on life a little. Now, I'm not going to name any names, but I will say that I've never talked to this guy on any platform other than Deviant Art (shameless plug, follow me on DA if you want all the insider knowledge on when stories are coming out as well as some semi-passible art). This guy's storie's are so many things...great...adorable...amazingly written...and he writes a certain blue bunny that we all know and love in such a way that makes me want a plushy of said blue bunny. Now, incidentally, when I first read one of his stories, and I imagined how his version of Toy Bonnie acted, all cheery, happy, and always being optimistic...it made me take a step back and re-evaluate some of my choices life. Now don't get the wrong idea, I've never been an angry or troubled kid...in fact, I've lived a pretty comfortable life if I do say so myself. But I must say, when I read this guy's stories, and decided to practice some of that upbeat, cheerfulness that one of his characters always expressed, I can honestly say that I started feeling much better about school, and just any other hard things that might have been happening at that point in my life. And I think that's pretty special how one persons stories can change another persons life in a positive way. Now again, I'm not going to name any names, but I wanted to say thank you to this person for essentially giving me a new start on life.

Now, with all that talking out of the way, how 'bout we finish this story! Here come's the final disclaimer of 'What We Have In Common!'

Disclaimer: I don't own FNAF or anything in the FNAF universe, nor do I own the song in this story. Fnaf that all belongs to Scott Cawthon, and the song...um...they technically belongs to HIT Entertainment...I guess that's right. But I did edit it for this story, so 10 points to Grifindor if you can guess the name, and another 10 if you can tell me the franchise that it comes from. Yeah, that's about it. Speaking of FNAF though, Sister Location has been out for a while, and I must say, it's pretty darn scary!

The next week was filled with nothing but work. All of the animatronics had jobs to do. Chica and Chi were tasked with fixing up the party rooms that had suffered many, many casualties during the fights...

"Hey Chi," Chica called, motioning the yellow chick to come over to where she was standing.

"Yeah?" the smaller bird asked.

"I, um...I found something that I think belongs to you..." Chica said, pointing towards the broken off beak that lay under the table.

"Oh, my goodness! Thank you!" Chi cried happily, snatching it from the floor. "I'd thought I'd never see it again! I'll have to get Fritz to reattach it right away!" The bird rested the beak on the table, before looking back at Chica and, much to the larger hen's surprise, giving her a hug. Chica smiled, (well, the best that she could anyway.) and hugged the bird back.

Foxy, Vix and Balloon Boy fixed up the kids cove, that had seen it's fair share of damage...

"Ye' sure ye' don' need any 'elp up thar' lass?" Foxy asked as he gazed up at the vixen, who was precariously perched atop a latter, trying to hang up a large and colourful 'Welcome' banner.

"No, no. I've got this." Vix replied. "Just, help BB move those boxes over ther-whoa!" As she was saying that, she'd been trying to point to where she needed the boxes moved, but had lost her balance and started to fall.

"Vixey!" Balloon Boy cried.

"Lass!"

Vix shut her eyes, thinking a run in with the floor was inevitable. That is, until a very quick and brave fox leaped out and caught her just in time. Vix opened her eyes, and was absolutely stunned by what had just happened.

"Are ye' alright lassy?" Foxy asked, having genuinely worried look on his muzzle.

"U-Um...y-yes...thank you..." Vix replied, blushing slightly. Foxy sighed in relief as he let the white fox stand on her own two feet.

"Don' mention it, lass. Now, how about we get this banner up?" Vix smiled and nodded.

"Right you are!"

And Freddy and Fred coordinated everything, while still helping out with minor tasks of course...

"Um...excuse me, Freddy?" the smaller bear asked as he approached his larger counterpart.

"How can I help you, Fred?" Freddy replied as he looked away from his clipboard and at the bear.

"Uh...this is going to sound kind of embarrassing, but...can you teach me how to be a good leader?" Freddy raised an eyebrow.

"How to be a good leader? What on earth do you mean?" Fred looked away.

"Well...y'know...like, always being able to make the right decision at any given moment. Like how you were able to coordinate such a brilliant, yet somewhat devious plan that one night. I want you to teach me how to think like that." Freddy stared at the bear, before chuckling a little.

"And why do you need me to teach you that?"

"W-Well...um..."

"Fred," Freddy said, putting a hand on the bear's shoulder. "Being a good leader isn't about knowing what to do all the time. It's not about having all the answers, or being the strongest and most intimidating. It's about being able to show authority, and deal with even the most stressful situations...but most of all, it's about showing compassion to those who follow you. Let me put it to you this way. When you stood up for Bonnie and Bon that one night, I can safely say that that's some of the best leadership I've seen in a long time." And at hearing these words, for the first time in his life, Fred's face lit up like a small child's.

"W-Wow...thanks, Freddy." he said, shocked by what he'd just heard.

"Hey, don't mention it." the bear replied with a smile. "Now come on, we've got some leadership to attend to."

And little Bon, you may ask? Well, it would be easier to tell you what she didn't do, because if there was ever a job that needed to be done, nine times out of ten, Bon was the one to do it. Whether it was cleaning up debris, or moving in new furniture, the little blue bunny was on top of it.

She worked so hard in fact, that the others were worried she might strain herself. Bon however, didn't care. All she cared about was getting everything back on track, repeating the same words in her mind over and over as she worked.

For Bonnie...

One afternoon, Mr. Fazworth was looking through some papers. He was trying to decide what to do about Bonnie. On the one hand, he wanted to restore the broken bunny to his former glory, as he had saved all of his animatronics. But on the other hand...

*sigh*

He just didn't know...

He couldn't think of a way to incorporate him into the show without making things seem awkward. As he was thinking everything over, he heard a knock on the office door. "Come in." the man said. The door opened, only to reveal Mari standing on the other side.

"Good afternoon, sir." he said in his soothing voice.

"Afternoon, Mari. How can I help you?"

"I just wanted to tal-." he paused, and looked down at one of many papers laying on the floor. "What's all this?"

"Oh, sorry about the mess. I've been trying to make a...rather tough business decision regarding the restaurant."

"Oh, really? What sort of decision?" Mari asked, though he knew full well what the man meant. Mr. Fazworth sighed heavily.

"I was told that...well, Golden Freddy attacked you all last week, and Bonnie fought him off. Is that true?" The puppet nodded.

"Yes, sir."

"Well, I was also told that he had nothing to do with the fights that went on during the night, or the damage done to the others...and I feel bad for him. But at the same time, I still need parts in case Bon or the others need repairs." Mari sighed, before looking the man right in the eye.

"Well, sir. You must know that I haven't been completely honest with you about something."

"You haven't?" Mr. Fazworth asked, raising an eyebrow. "And what might that be."

"Well, you see sir. Chi had a little bit of an accident with some flour in the kitchen, which damaged some of her parts...specifically in the hand and face areas. Now, in an attempt to fix her, I unfortunately had to borrow some parts from Chica, as I assumed you wouldn't mind. But as I was fixing her, I noticed that the parts used in both animatronics had almost completely different configurations, basically meaning parts that worked for Chica wouldn't work for Chi, and vise-versa. I suspect that the other older animatronics share the same trait, making their parts useless to the newer ones. So I'm asking you sir, not only as a friend to these...er...'withered animatronics,' as it were, but as a friend to you, that you fix all of them, as I believe it would cost much more to keep them locked away in the Parts and Service room, where you could be keeping extra tools and newer parts." Mr. Fazworth stared at Mari, and thought very carefully about what he was being told. If what Mari said was true, then it would also be a waste of money to break them up, or store them as is. And he wasn't just going to just throw them away. That wouldn't be right. They were like family to him.

"Thank you, Mari. I think I've made up my mind." Mr. Fazworth said at last.

"Very well then, sir." the puppet said, turning to leave. But just before he did, he asked one more question. "Oh, and sir."

"Yes Mari?"

"Could you please ask Fritz when he will have my mask done? I'm afraid the cracks in this one are here to stay, and I'd hate to scare the children come opening day."

Mr. Fazworth smiled. "Don't worry, Mari. I will."

"Thank you sir." the puppet said, before closing the door behind him. Mr. Fazworth sighed, before looking back down at his papers.

"Hmm...maybe that could work..."

That evening, Mr. Fazworth asked Fritz to come into his office. He had something very important to tell him. "Hello, Mr. Fazworth, sir." the man said cheerfully. "What can I do ya' for?"

"Good evening, Fritz. Please, have a seat. There's something that I'd like to talk to you about." The engineer did as his boss asked and sat down.

"So, what do you need?"

"Well," Mr. Fazworth began. "I was wondering how you were coming along with Mari's new mask." Fritz smiled.

"Oh, it's nearly done. I just need to add a few minor details and it'll be ready to be reattached."

"Good, and Vix's fur?"

"Should be in by tomorrow." Fritz responded. "Why?"

"Well, I have a favor I'd like to ask you." Mr. Fazworth said, folding his hands and leaning towards the engineer. "I've been looking over some papers, and it's come to my attention that we simply don't have the space in the Parts and Service room to keep Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy." Hearing these words made Fritz's heart sink.

"Sir, please tell me you're not saying...not after..." the engineer trailed off, thinking of how hard they were all working out there to get things done in time, with the exception of poor Bonnie, of course.

"Quiet the contrary, my boy. As a matter of fact, I was wondering if you'd be willing to restore them back to their former state. Now, I know that you have a lot on your plate at the moment, what with opening day looking as though it's right around the corner, but I would be more than willing to add a nice bonus to your pay check if you choose accept." Fritz almost couldn't believe his ears.

"D-Do, you really mean it, Mr. Fazworth. You're not just pulling my leg, are you?" Mr. Fazworth smiled.

"If you're feeling up to the task...but it's really your call." It didn't take Fritz more than a second to make his decision.

"Y-Yes sir. I'd love to. B-But, what will we do with them once they're fixed? I thought you only needed six animatronics." Mr. Fazworth grinned.

"Oh, just let me take care of that. All I need to know is when you can get to work on them." Fritz thought for a moment.

"Well, I could probably start on Freddy and Foxy tomorrow. They should be a pretty quick fix. Chica might take a little longer..."

"And Bonnie?" Mr. Fazworth asked. Fritz felt the color drain from his face at the mention of the bunny's name.

"Um...well...I'll see what I can do, but he's going to need a lot more work. I'm not sure I'll be able to get him done in time for the grand opening." Mr. Fazworth sighed, before glancing over some papers.

"Very well. I'll need you to be here early tomorrow to start working, so make sure you get here by eight-thirty."

"Yes, sir." Fritz said, obediently. "Is that everything?"

"Yes, I believe it is." Mr. Fazworth replied. "I'll see you tomorrow. Remember to be here at eight-thirty with your tools. I'll make sure to tell the others."

"Alrighty, have a good evening sir." Fritz said as he got up and turned to leave.

"You too, Fritz." the man replied. Once the engineer left, Mr. Fazworth stood up. There was one last thing he needed to take care of.

Freddy, Foxy, Chica, Fred, Vix, Chi and Balloon Boy sat in the main room, conversing about the long day of work they just had and how it looked like they were about to make opening day, which was only a few days away, when Mr. Fazworth came in. At first, nobody noticed that he was there, until the man spoke up. "U-Um, excuse me everyone." he said, quieting his animatronics down. Now he had a full audience. "I have an important announcement to make. First of all, I would like to thank all of you for all your hard work. Without you, we would not be on track for the grand opening in a few days. You've all worked extremely hard to make this possible, and I cannot express how grateful I am towards you all."

"Aw, don't mention it." Chi said, scratching the back of her head sheepishly.

"Aye, t'was really nothin', Mr. Fazworth, sir." Foxy added.

"Yes, well...as I was saying. It has come to my attention that some of my previous...er, arrangements have needed to be tweaked..." Freddy gulped. He thought Mr. Fazworth was going to tell them that he couldn't fix Bonnie...or worse. "As such, I have struck a deal with Fritz and made the decision to, not only restore Vix and Mari, but also you three as well." Freddy, Chica and Foxy almost couldn't believe their ears.

"Y-You're not saying..." Freddy asked. Mr. Fazworth nodded.

"I would like the three of you to join Fred, Chi and Vix in their respective roles in the restaurant. And..."

But the rest of his speech was drowned out by a chorus a "Hurrahs," and cheers as the animatronics celebrated. At last, Mr. Fazworth quieted them all down. "Now, now. Everyone please settle down. I'm not finished. Now, Freddy and Foxy. Tomorrow, you will go to the Parts and Service room, where Fritz will mend you. Once he is done, Chica will be the next to be repaired." Foxy and Chica were very excited.

"Oh, isn't this great, Freddy? We're gonna be useful once again!" Chica said, happily. She then got a good look into Freddy's eyes, which seemed less excited than she would have thought. "Freddy? Are you okay?"

"What about Bonnie?" the bear blurted out. "What will happen to him?" Mr. Fazworth smiled.

"He'll be the last to be repaired, as his damages are far grea-"

"I beg your pardon sir," Freddy cut off, "but, if I may ask, could you please fix Bonnie first?" Mr. Fazworth raised an eyebrow.

"Why, whatever for?"

"Because," Freddy said, closing his eyes for a moment. He remembered the night he and Fred carried him into the Parts and Service room. How limp and broken he was. "he needs it more than us sir. He deserves it more than us."

"Well, that's going to be a bit troublesome, Freddy." Mr. Fazworth sighed. "His repairs will take much longer than yours, and-"

"I don't care sir." Freddy said, indignantly. "Let him go in my place. I don't care if he takes longer to fix, sir. I can wait." Everyone looked at Freddy, surprised by his amount of selflessness. Not that Freddy had ever been a self-centered kind of bear, but passing up an opportunity like this? So close to opening day too? It was almost unheard of! Mr. Fazworth sighed, before looking back at the bear.

"Very well then Freddy. I'll have Fritz repair him first, but if you aren't able to make opening day, then it will be on your own doing." Freddy smiled.

"I understand. Thank you, sir." he replied. The man nodded, before turning to leave and make a phone call to Fritz about the sudden change of plans. After a short moment of silence, Chica spoke.

"W-Wow, Freddy." Chica said, admiring the bear's selflessness. "That's really...wow..."

"Oh, don't mention it." the bear replied with a small smile. "I thought it was for the best. He needs the repairs more than me, and if I can't be repaired in time, then so be it."

"I'm sure Bon'll appreciate it even more." Chi replied, smiling a little. She was impressed that the bear would pass up such an opportunity.

"Aye, where is the little one anyway." Foxy asked. "Haven't seen hide nor' hair of her all evenin'."

"She went to one of the party rooms." Vix replied. "She said she was gonna turn early in tonight. And I don't blame her. If I was working half as hard as she was, I'd be bushed too!" the vixen laughed.

"Y-Yeah..." Chi said thoughtfully, before an idea popped into her possessor. "Y'know, there's not that much work left to do. How 'bout we let her sleep in tomorrow and finish the work ourselves."

"That's not a bad idea, Chi." Fred commented. "Why not give her a break? She's the reason everything's ran like clockwork, after all." The other bots glanced around in agreement. "Great, then it's settled." Fred said, before yawning. Though he hadn't worked as hard as Bon, he was still very tired. This 'being a leader' thing was hard work! "Now if you'll excuses me," he said as another yawn escaped his muzzle. "I'd best be getting to sleep, as should the rest of you. We've got a busy day ahead of us tomorrow." Once again, the others nodded and one by one, followed him to the stage for a good night's sleep. Though, even after they were all asleep, one animatronic still stirred in the night.

Now's as good a chance as any...

Mari tiptoed very quietly down the hall to the Part's and Service room, something that wasn't very hard for him since he didn't really have feet. He was about to put a plan into action. One that he hoped would make things right. As he maneuvered his way down the hall, he heard the sound of soft snoring coming from one of the party rooms. He peered inside and, true to her word, saw Bon curled up and sleeping soundly on the floor. Mari couldn't help but sigh as he gazed at the innocent bunny.

Don't worry, my girl...I've come to fix the mess I've made...

Mari quickly left the room and, after a few moments, finally arrived at the Part's and Service room. He slowly opened the door, as to not make any noise, and crept inside. As he had expected, there sat Bonnie in the corner of the room, limp and alone. The puppet then glanced over at the tool box that had been used to aid in the repairing of himself. "Right, time to get to work." he said, before lifting Bonnie up and onto the table. "Okay, Bonnie. Let's see what I can do..."

Fritz arrived right on time the next morning, much to Mr. Fazworth's delight. "Right, you ready for this, Fritz?" he asked, opening the door and leading the engineer to the Part's and Service room.

"Ready as I'll ever be, sir. But do you really want me to work on Bonnie first? He's a bit of a wreck. I don't think I can get him done in one day." Mr. Fazworth smiled.

"Yes, I'm quite sure. He needs the repairs more than anyone."

"O-Okay, sir." Fritz said, with only a hint of doubt. "But I don't know how much of him is broken. He could need an entire-"

"Whatever it takes, Fritz." Mr. Fazworth cut off as he opened the door to the Parts and Service room. "I trust that you'll do an excellent job with him and the others. Good luck." And with that, Mr. Fazworth left Fritz to his work.

"I'll need more than luck to get this done on time." Fritz muttered to himself as he turned to the table, of which Bonnie was already laying on. "Okay then. Let's get to work. First thing's first, gotta check the CPU..." Frizt turned the bunny over, onto his stomach and opened a panel in the back of Bonnie's head. Surprisingly, the CPU was still in tact. In fact, it looked like new. "Huh, that's...odd..." Fritz said to know one in particular. "Well, next thing to check would be the voice...box..." But again, to Fritz's surprise, Bonnie's voice box was A-okay. In fact, as he continued his overview of the bot, it seemed like most of his internals were perfectly fine, excluding the fraid wires from where his left arm once was. Was this some kind of joke? He thought this bunny was busted and broken inside and out. Why were his interior workings in such good condition?

Not that Fritz was complaining, but still. He expected a much tougher job, when really, all the bunny needed was a new arm, a new face, and an electrical reboot. "Well, I guess that settles that." Fritz said, still shocked that the bunny was in surprisingly good shape. "Time to get you back on track, buddy."

That morning, Chi was tasked with doing some cleaning in the 'secret room' that had been basically destroyed a few nights ago. It was one of the jobs that Bon was supposed to do, but Chi didn't mind. She knew that the bunny had worked hard enough for three, and needed a good rest. Thanks to Bon, the room looked almost like new, minus the gaping hole in the wall that still had yet to be patched up. All that remained were some miscellaneous bags and bits of plaster that needed to be cleaned up, as well as a good dusting. She had just finished wiping off the desk, when she saw something that caught her attention. It looked like a pad of paper that had been stuffed into one of the drawers. Out of curiosity, she pulled it out, only to realize that someone had recently been writing in it. "Thank You Song...for...Bonnie..." Chi read out loud, before skimming down the page.

Did Bon write this?

The bird continued reading, and the more she read, the more she found...

"Hey, this isn't too bad. I've got to show this to the others!" Chi said. She quickly finished up her work, and raced down the hall to show everyone her discovery.

While Fritz and the rest of the animatronics worked, Bon slept soundly in the party room. She was dreaming of Bonnie...well, when he was still in one piece. She dreamed of all the fun they'd had in the short amount of time they'd spent together. Sneaking away to the secret room together...playing guitar...

*sniff*

...meeting him for the first time...the gentleness of his voice when he spoke to her...the time they first kissed, lip to lip...even though it was by accident, it still meant something to her...being with him made her feel so comfortable and...

...safe...

It just tugged at her heart strings to see his face, even if it was in a dream. It all seemed to go by so fast...

His last words to her stuck out in her mind most of all.

"Thank you for being my friend..."

He had done so much for her...and that's the only thing she'd given in return. Being a friend. Giving him her trust. And somehow, that seemed to be all he ever wanted. Something so simple, yet...it seemed so special to him. She remembered the look on his face when he apologized to her the night they first met. It was just begging to be trusted, to be forgiven...

She remembered how he begged her the night his friends attacked to trust his plan...and she did...

She remembered how he never gave up while fighting Golden Freddy, even when the odds were stacked against him. She remembered the blank, yet somewhat forgiving look on his face as she fought desperately against the yellow bear to stop controlling her, and how hard she fought to break free from his mental grasp.

And finally, she remembered the empty shell that was his face after Golden Freddy laid the finishing blow. Though he couldn't express it, she could see an incredible amount of guilt in the bunny's eyes for not only failing to beat him...

...but to protect her, too.

The last thing she saw of him was the light in the bunny's eyes dimming, before going out completely. And with that, the scene itself began to fade, and Bon awoke. Her eyes watered a little as she opened them. Remembering him made her feel so sad, but knowing that he gave his life for her made her feel something else.

Sad, but...in a warmer way...like how she felt when she first kissed him...

And though she had tried to do him proud by working extra hard to fix everything, the memory of him refused to leave her side. But for some reason, though she couldn't understand why, that memory gave her comfort, the same way Bonnie himself would when she felt sad. Even still, small tears rolled down her face. She truly would never meet another animatronic like him. To her, he was just so...

...perfect.

She wept for a little while longer, before hearing a soft voice from the door. "Bon...are you okay?" She looked up, only to see Chi standing in the door way.

"O-Oh, *sniff* h-hi Chi...yeah...I was just thinking about...something..." Chi walked over to the blue bunny and sat down next to her.

"R-Really? Would you like to talk about it?" she asked, wrapping an arm around the bunny. She then noticed the tears glistening in her eyes. "You were thinking about Bonnie, weren't you?" Bon's eyes widened, and her cheeks became very red.

"What- I...yeah, I was..." the bunny sighed before wiping a way some tears. "I'm sorry, it's just...I really miss him and-" But Chi put a finger over the bunny's lips, cutting her off.

"It's okay, Bon...I understand...here..." the chick said, wrapping the bunny in a hug. After a moment, the two retracted.

"S-So, what does Freddy need me to do today?"

"Actually," Chi said with a sly smile. "we're done. We decided we'd let you sleep in and finish the work ourselves."

"Wh-What? Y-You really did that...f-for me?" Chi nodded.

"Weeeeell, we thought you could use the rest. You have really been working hard all week, after all."

"Aw, c'mon." Bon said, smiling a little as she waved her hands defensively. "I-It was nothing!"

"No, really." Chi said. "If it wasn't for you, we'd still be clearing away all that ruble. You're like...a hero, Bon. You saved this restaurant." Bon smiled sadly, before looking away.

"No...I'm not a hero...I was just trying to do what...Bonnie would have done..." she sniffed.

"Oh, um...about that..." Chi said, remembering what Mr. Fazworth had told her.

"Y-Yes?" Bon asked, wiping away some more tears.

"W-Well...I wanted it to be a surprise, but...Mr. Fazworth said that he was gonna fix the others."

"Others?" Bon asked, raising an eyebrow. "Y-You mean..."

"Yep," Chi replied. "Freddy, Chica, Foxy and-"

"Bonnie!" Bon cried out hopefully. She couldn't believe what Chi was telling her. "Y-You really mean it?!" the bunny asked. "No joke?" Chi smiled. She had never seen her friend look so happy. She nodded, and was almost instantly enveloped in the softest hug she'd ever been given. Bon couldn't help it. Hearing this news had made her feel so happy, she almost couldn't control herself.

"Heh, c-calm down Bon. Save some excitement for when he's fixed. Mr. Fazworth said he's is gonna take a while to fix, and-" But Bon didn't hear the latter half of what Chi had to say. She was too excited to pay attention. She hugged Chi even tighter, thinking about being reunited with her friend once more. "Heh...thanks Bon...glad you're happy...um...ow..."

"Oh, sorry." Bon said, letting go of the almost crushed bird and rubbing the back of her head sheepishly.

"That's alright. Now, how 'bout we get out of this room and join the others? It'll probably be more fun than just sitting in here all morning."

"Okie-dokie!" Bon said, jumping up and following the bird out of the room, albeit with a little more skip in her step.

Bon, Chi, and the others spent the rest of the morning and most of the afternoon practicing their songs for opening day. It was a bit hard with only one of each of the props, but they made it work. It was nearing the evening when Fritz finally left the Parts and Service room, covered in grease and oil. Though it may have been a long job and had taken him the entire day to do, he'd finally done what he thought was impossible. He had fully restored Bonnie.

Well, almost. He still need to give his systems an electrical reboot, but other than that, he was done. He passed by the main room, not drawing any attention to himself, and walked into Mr. Fazworth's office to tell him the good news. "Ah, Fritz. How'd everything go today?"

"Very well, sir." the engineer replied. "Actually, really well. Bonnie's as good as new." Mr. Fazworth blinked.

"I beg your pardon?"

"I finished fixing him, sir. And I must say, he's never looked better." Mr. Fazworth was astonished.

"B-But, how? He was a wreck the last time I saw him."

"Well, besides giving his system a electrical reboot, he's pretty much back in working order. I guess I've just got the magic touch, or something." Fritz laughed.

Mr. Fazworth grinned. "You've done it again, Fritz. You really have." he said, patting the engineer on the back.

"Heh, don't mention it. So, you want me to fix Chica tomorrow?"

"If you're up to the challenge, my boy!" Mr. Fazworth replied. "You need a ride home?"

"If you wouldn't mind, sir."

"Of course not. Meet me outside, I'm just about to lock up." The two men left the office, unaware that they were being watched.

"Well, I wouldn't say Fritz has the magic touch, but better an unsung hero than no hero at all I suppose. Now, let's see if I can finish the job."

It wasn't long before Mari was back in the Parts and Service room, and looming over the bunny once more. He was impressed at how well of a job Fritz had done with the bot. Bonnie looked brand new, face and all! "Alright, my friend...time to finish what we started." Mari put his hands onto Bonnie's chest and, using his own powers, gave him the boost of power he so desperately needed. Not long after, the bunny woke up with a start, the same way one might wake up after a nightmare.

"Ah!" he yelled, panting heavily. He was so startled, he didn't even notice Mari at his side. "B-Bon! Are you-" The bunny stopped, surprised that he was back in the Parts and Service room. It was then he looked to his left, only to be given a very frightful surprise. "Holy mother of music!" he shrieked, and fell off the table with a thud. "Wh-Who are you?!"

"Do not fear me, Bonnie. I am only here to help." Mari said, lending the bunny a helping hand. "My name is the Marionette, but you may call me Mari."

"W-Well, 'Mari,'" the bunny started. "Where am I? And more importantly, where's Bon? Is she okay?"

"She's fine...as are the rest of your friends. But they all miss you very much." Bonnie's ears wilted.

"W-Well, can I come out and see them? I mean, even if I am all busted up, I'd sti-" Bonnie stopped for a moment and looked down at himself. He was rather surprised at what he saw. "Wait, I'm...I'm fixed?"

"Yes," Mari replied. "Good as new."

"B-But...why? Why would they need to fix me? Mr. Fazworth already has Bon. Why would he need me?"

"You certainly have a lot of questions." the puppet laughed. "But then again, I do have answers for all of them. You see Bonnie, the reason you're here is because you did something so incredible, so selfless, that Mr. Fazworth decided to give you a second chance."

"R-Really? H-He did?" the purple bunny stuttered.

Mari nodded. "Yes...now, I could go on about everything that has happened while you were in your state of disrepair, but I think you'll find out in good time. Now, how about we get out of this old room? It's certainly no place for a bot like you."

Bonnie smiled. "You can say that again." he said, walking over to the door. He had no idea what awaited him on the other side.

"So Bon," Chica asked, putting her broken wing on the table. "are you excited for opening day?" The bunny nodded, though it was apparent something else was on her mind. "Are you okay, Bon?" the bird asked.

"Huh, wha...- oh...y-yeah...I was just...thinking about something..." the blue bunny sighed. She was wondering if Bonnie would be done in time for opening day. Little did she know that she wouldn't have to wonder for very long.

"Excuse me everybody," Mari said, getting everyone's attention. "but I have an announcement to make. I would like introduce you all to the new and improved Bonnie bunny!" The puppet stood to the side, revealing the purple bunny standing behind him.

"Hello every-"

"Bonnie?!" Bon cried as she turned from her chair, only to see her bunny buddy standing in the hall entrance, in perfect condition to boot. Before the purple bunny knew what was happening, he was immediately tackled by Bon, and enveloped in the tightest hug he'd ever been given.

"Whoa!" he cried as he and Bon fell backward. The blue bunny didn't care. She was just so happy to see him again.

"Oh, Bonnie! I missed you so much!" she cried joyfully, as the others began to crowd around the scene. It really was a sight to behold.

"Heh, heh...I missed you too, Bon..." he said, nuzzling her cheek a little. The others giggled as they watched the two reunite, before helping them up. Even after they were back on there feet, Bon refused to let go of her purple pal.

"Tis' good ta see ya back in work'in order, matey." Foxy said, patting Bonnie firmly on the back.

"It sure is!" Chica cheered as she hugged onto Bonnie, much like Bon did, albeit for a shorter time.

"Bonnie," Freddy said, smiling wider than the bunny had ever seen. Without a word, he joined Bon in hugging the bunny. "It's good to have you back, Bonnie." the bear said as he pulled away.

Bonnie's smile only grew. Now THAT was the Freddy he remembered. "It's good to be back, Freddy." Fred, Chi and Vix all traded a happy glance. For the first time in days, everyone, Bon especially, seemed to be truly happy.

Fritz was as good as his word. He worked day in and day out fixing the other animatronics. The engineer was most surprised to see Bonnie up and walking around the next morning, but he and Mr. Fazworth were more than happy to welcome him back to the family, after prying a certain, clingy blue bunny off of him, of course. After what felt like forever, he had finally finished repairing the others. He had to admit, he'd never seen the original animatronics look nicer, and Vixy and Mari's repairs went smoother than he'd expected. And not a moment to day to soon, too.

The evening before the grand opening, after Fritz had gone home, the animatronics gathered around one of the new tables in the dining area, and waited for Chica and Chi. They had been told to sit there and wait for a very special 'surprise' that the two birds were preparing for them to celebrate the grand opening. Fred glanced over to the door of the kitchen anxiously. "Th-They've been in there for quiet a while...I hope they're all right."

"Don' worry yerself, lad." Foxy eased. "If thar's one thing I know about the lass, it's that she'd never intentionally put a friend in danger. Trus' me, those two'll be fine."

"For everyone's sake, I hope you're right." Fred muttered under his breath. Bon was less concerned, and more curious as to what the two were up to.

"What do you think the surprise is?" she whispered to Bonnie. The purple bunny smiled. He had a feeling he knew exactly what it was, but decided to act as though he didn't.

"I don't know, but I'll bet it's gonna be something special." Just then, the doors to the kitchen swung open. Bonnie grinned, while Bon watched in wonder as the two birds emerged from the kitchen, carrying a large tray.

"I hope you're all hungry!" Chica proclaimed proudly as she set it down. There, on the tray, was a large...well, Bon, Fred, Vix and Balloon Boy didn't know what it was. But it was circular, with an orange middle and a brown outer rim. The top was covered in strange red circles and smelled...strangely good.

"What is it?" Bon asked, curiously.

"What, have you never seen a pizza before?" Chica asked, putting her new hands on her hips.

"Pizza?" The four aforementioned bots said in unison.

"It's food." Chi replied as she cut a piece for herself. "You put it in your mouth, and eat it. Like this." The chick took a delicious bite of her slice, before chewing it up, and swallowing it. "See? Easy!" Fred, Bon, Vix weren't so sure, but Balloon Boy seemed eager to try.

"Can I have some Chi-Chi? Pleeeeeeease?" he asked, making big puppy dog eyes.

"Sure thing, BB!" the bird replied. In no time flat, she had served everyone a slice, and was in a seat, ready to finish her own.

"Well, dig in!" Chica said, happily munching away at her slice of pizza. It felt like it had been too long since she'd been able to eat food again. Bonnie, Freddy and Foxy all followed suit. This certainly wasn't their first time having one of Chica's famous pepperoni pizzas. Fred and Vix glanced at each other, before looking down at the food in front of them.

"W-Well, after you." Vix said, nervously. Fred stared for a moment, before picking up the piece and taking a rather cautious bite, only to be pleasantly surprised.

"Say, this isn't half bad." he said, before biting into it again. "Go on Vix, try it." Vix did as she was told, and was soon glad that she did.

"This is delicious." she said, very impressed.

"I'm glad you like it." Chi replied. "I made it myself...with a little help from Chica, of course."

"It was my pleasure, dear." the larger bird laughed. She always enjoyed teaching other's about one of her favorite pass times. Bon still hadn't tried her slice yet. The whole concept of eating seemed very foreign to her.

"Go ahead Bon. Trust me, you'll like it." Bonnie said, smiling at her. Bon gave him a small, nervous smile back, before taking a slow bite out of her slice. The second she bit down, her eyes went wide.

"D-Do you like it, Bon?" Chi asked, nervously. She was glad that her first pizza had went over well with everyone so far, but was hoping Bon liked it most of all. Bon didn't reply, but she could've sworn she heard a 'Ding-ding-ding' sound effect inside her head.

"Are you kidding?" she said at last. "This is great, Chi! How'd you make it?" Chi and Chica shared a knowing glance.

"Heh, maybe we can teach you sometime." the smaller bird laughed. Bonnie smiled at the blue bunny next to him. He remembered the first time he'd ever tried one of Chica's pizza's. He was happy to see that he and Bon shared the same tastes.

Guess that's something else we have in common...

The gang of animatronics talked excitedly about the events of tomorrow as they ate, before Mr. Fazworth walked into the room. "Good evening, everyone." he said happily. He was glad to see that everyone was getting along. He was met with a chorus of "Hi's," "Hello's" and "Good evening's," before finally getting everyone to quiet down. "Now, I have a very special announcement to make. First of all, I'd like to thank each and every one of you for pitching in and helping to fix everything up around here. I truly thought that we'd be forced to close down for months while I tried to get things organized, but you all proved that you could take on and conker even the most stressful of situations, and to that, once again I say, thank you." All the animatronics smiled at one another. They were very proud that they had pulled this off. "Now, Fred, Bon, and Chi. I believe I have something for each of you." The three bots looked at each other.

"F-For us, sir?" Fred asked.

"Yes, indeed." said a voice. Everyone turned around.

"M-Mari?" Bon asked. And sure enough, there stood the puppet himself, good as new. "Good evening, everyone." he said, politely. He had three brightly colored box's behind him. He handed a brown one to Fred, a yellow one to Chi, and a long, bright blue one to Bon. The three bots looked down at the gifts, before looking back at Mr. Fazworth.

"Well, then. Go ahead. Open them." the man said, smiling excitedly. The others watched as the three bots opened their presents.

"Oh my goodness!" Chi cried as she pulled out a brand new cupcake. It was smaller than the one that originally belonged to Chica, and had adorable bright blue eyes.

"My, my..." Fred said. His gift was a new microphone. It was black, and looked very sleek. But best of all, it had a red stripe around it that made it match his top hat. "Wh-Why, thank you sir." the bear said as he inspected the sound amplifying device.

"You're very welcome, Fred." Mr. Fazworth replied. "And Bon, how do you like yours?" The man looked over at the blue bunny, who's eyes were wide and jaw was slacked. When she was first given her guitar...well, Bonnie's guitar, she thought it was the most beautiful thing in the whole world. The way it's shiny, red paint glistened in the light. The sound it made when played. Everything about it just screamed 'perfect,' except for the fact that it made her feel like she had stolen it from Bonnie. But when she pulled out a brand new, pink guitar out of the gift box, she was proven wrong. This was the single greatest gift she'd ever been given, and the best part of all...it was all her's. She didn't have to feel guilty about using it, or feel as though it belonged to someone else. It was just for her. The little bunny didn't know what to say. All she could do was stare at it, eyes shining like stars.

"Um, Bon...?" Vix asked, poking the bunny, who only continued to stare at her instrument, star struck.

"Ha ha. I'll take that as a 'thank you.' I figured a special bunny like yourself would need a special guitar for tomorrow's show." Mr. Fazworth laughed.

"W-Wait," Bonnie cut in. "Does this mean what I think it means?" Mr. Fazwroth grinned and nodded. Now it was Bonnie, as well as Freddy and Chica's turned to go wide eyed.

"You mean, you're giving us back our..." Chica trailed off.

"Well of course! How can I expect you to preform without the proper equipment?" the man laughed. Another cheer up-roared from the animatronics, along with a plethora of "thank you's." That night, there wasn't a single animatronic who didn't feel immensely happy. But out of all of them, Bon was the happiest of all.

At last, the big day had finally come. A large crowd of people had gathered outside, and waited excitedly while Mr. Fazworth gave his speech. Everyone was very excited to see the new, and old animatronics. Many people who were out there remembered how amazing the originals were, and couldn't believe that they had been restored, while many more had heard about this place through hearsay, and were excited to see this restaurant's fresh start.

Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Fred, Bon and Chi were all lined up on the stage, ready and waiting for everyone to come inside. As they waited, Bon noticed that Fred seemed...well, not himself.

"Are you okay, Fred?" she whispered to the bear. Fred tugged on his bow tie, before speaking.

"Y-Yes...j-just a little...er...nervous, is all." Bon smiled.

"Y'know, when I get nervous, I close my eyes, take a few deep breaths, and forget about what's making me worried. Why don't you give it a try?" Fred nodded, and did just that. He closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and strangely enough...

...he felt a little better.

"...th-thanks Bon..." Fred said, feeling a little less fidgety. "That does feel better."

"Heh, don't mention it." the bunny replied with a smile. Just then, the doors to the restaurant swung open, and the crowd of people from outside, mainly children, piled in. When everyone was seated and ready, Freddy grabbed his microphone off the stand, and spoke.

"Hello everybody, and welcome to the New and Improved Freddy Fazbear's Pizzaria. My name is Freddy Fazbear, and it is my honor to introduce to you all, my friends, who will be preforming along side me today. We've got some familiar faces here on stage, as well as some newcomers. To my left, we have Fred Fazbear,"

"Good day everyone,"

"Bon the Blue Belle Bunny"

"Hi everybody!"

"and Chica the Chicken."

"Hello boys and girls!"

Freddy smiled. So far, so good. "And to my right, we have Bonnie the Bunny,"

"Hi'ya!"

"and Chi the Chicken."

"Hope you're all ready to party!"

"Now, I would like to introduce our first song." Bonnie and Bon smiled at each other. They were very excited, however, they had no idea of the surprise that awaited them. "This first song is a special song, written for a very special pair of bunnies, whom without them, I don't know where we'd be."

"Wh-What's he talking about?" Bon whispered to Chica.

"You'll see." the bird replied excitedly.

"Now, all we need to get this song started is a little music. And I can't think of anyone more able to play then the two guitarists on either side of myself and Fred. Bon. Bonnie Care to join me in the center?" The two bunnies glanced at each other, but did as they were told. Now, they were standing between Freddy and Fred, and feeling very confused.

"Freddy," Bonnie whispered to the large brown bear. "What's this all about?" Freddy chuckled, and momentarily switched off his mic.

"Here, just play this." Freddy replied, reaching into his hat and grabbing a piece of sheet music. Once again, the two bunnies looked at each other, before glancing at the paper.

"Well, here goes nothing." Bonnie muttered. "Ready Bon?" The little felt a tingle go through her when Bonnie asked this, and couldn't help but smile.

"Ready."

Bonnie grinned, before clearing his voice. "A one, a two. A one, two, three, four." The two bunnies began to play, in perfect sync too, and waited for the others to start singing. This is the song they sang...

He's a really special bunny, you know.

Just ask anybody, they'll tell you so.

Chi: Uh huh!

Chica: It's true!

Fred: Indeed!

When he preforms on the stage,

He always rocks the show!

He's the really special bunny we adore!

He's the one, he's the one,

He's the really special bunny that we adore!

He's the one, he's our number one,

Bonnie the bunny!

Bon was shocked. This was the song she had written for Bonnie to thank him for everything he'd done for her! She couldn't believe it's debut was on stage, in front of this many people too! But she had to wonder...

How did they find this song to begin with? And, why did Freddy say this song was for both of them? She'd only written it for Bonnie, not herself. That second question would soon be answered in a matter of seconds.

She's a really special bunny, you know!

Cos' the restaurant owner, he told her so!

Now she's got a guitar,

To call her very own,

She's the really special bunny we adore!

She's the one, she's the one,

She's the really special bunny that we adore!

She's the one, she's our number one,

Bon the bluebell bunny!

The best of friends, they're always there,

Whenever you need a hand.

If you need help with a situation,

Who comes into mind?

They're the ones, They're the ones,

They're the special pair of bunnies that we adore!

They're the ones, they're our number ones,

Bon and Bonnie bunny!

Bonnie smiled happily at his friend. She was doing well on that new pink guitar. Her form was perfect, and she was hitting every note flawlessly. She wasn't scared. She wasn't nervous. She was playing beautiful, like the night they'd first started practicing together. He never would have thought in a million years that he would get the chance to preform on stage with the little blue bunny, whose talent just needed a chance to bloom. That thought made him feel strange. Like, a warm, happy kind of strange. The same kind of feeling he felt the first time they'd kissed, albeit by accident. He then looked out to the crowed, remembering the dream he had a while ago. One of them may have attracted lot's of people on their own, but together, that number seemed to be even bigger. He grinned even wider as his friends sung the chorus again.

They're a special pair of bunnies, you know,

Chica: Not to mention so cute, from head to toe!

Stand back in amazement,

Watch them rock the show!

They're the special pair of bunnies we adore!

They're the ones, they're the ones,

They're the special pair of bunnies, that we adore!

They're the ones, they're our number ones!

Bon and Bonnie bunny!

They're the special pair of bunnies we adore!

And with that finishing line, the crowd of people burst into an applause unlike any that Bon, nor Bonnie had ever heard before. Bon grinned from ear to ear. She had never felt more special, and more importantly, useful, in her entire life.

Bon woke up on the stage at the stroke of midnight with a happy smile on her face.

Finally!

The bunny tiptoed down from the stage with her guitar in hand and headed off to the 'secret' room. Well, it wasn't all that 'secret' anymore, what with the gaping hole that Mr. Fazworth had ordered to be cut out into a large, square door way, but it still felt secret to her. So secret in fact, that she even crawled through the vent she normally crawled through to get there, even though she really didn't need to. When she popped her head out on the other side, a familiar face greeted her.

"Hey Bon." Bonnie said from the subtle darkness of the room. He had turned the lights on, but had kept them down low to avoid waking anyone up.

"Hi Bonnie. Great show today. You were awesome out there!" Bon replied as she pulled her self out of the vent.

"Thanks, but I think you were the real star." Bonnie said, giving the bunny a playful boop on the nose when she was free of the vent.

"Naw, it was all you on that stage. You rocked AND rolled out there." Bon insisted.

"How 'bout we call it fifty-fifty? A team effort." Bonnie proposed. "I'll be the 'rock' and you can be the 'roll.'" The two bunnies laughed. That was definitely an idea they could agree on. "Well then," Bonnie said as he took a seat against the wall and lifted his guitar into his lap. "you wanna get started or what?" Bon nodded, and quickly joined her friend. But when she sat down, she couldn't help but feel...

...strange.

Something about this whole thing seemed so surreal. Maybe it was being with her best bunny buddy again, or maybe it was the dimness of the lights...but Bon could feel a warm and fuzzy feeling welling up inside her. "Bon? A-Are you okay?" Bonnie asked, momentarily breaking the bunny out of her trance.

"Wha- huh? Um, yeah...it's just...I was thinking..."

"About what?" Bonnie asked, tilting his head to the side.

"Well...it's just hard to believe that we're here...back in this room again...after everything that happened..."

"Yeah..." Bonnie replied. "I know what you mean. Feels like just yesterday we came in here for the first time...you remember that, right?" Bon nodded. How could she forget? It was the first time she'd ever...

The blue bunny's cheeks went red. The thought of kissing Bonnie that night made her warm feeling grow by an incredible amount. That moment was still so vivid in her mind. The way their lips connected. The suddenness of the kiss upon impact. It all seemed to go by so...fast.

Bon sighed. She would give anything to do it again. Maybe...

"Um...Bonnie?" she asked, looking up at the bunny.

"Yeah?"

"N-Never mind..." Bon said, her shyness getting the better of her. There was no way he'd go for it, would he?

"What's the matter, Bon?" the purple bunny asked. Bon's blush continued.

"D-Don't worry about it. It's...nothing."

"N-No...you can tell me." Bonnie replied. Bon looked away for a second, before looking back at her friend.

"I-It's just...well...do you remember that night when you helped me figure out why I couldn't play guitar...and I got so happy, I...um, hugged you...and we kinda fell backwards and...um..." Bonnie nodded.

"Kissed? Yeah, I remember. What about it?" Bon struggled to look the bunny in the eye as she spoke.

"W-Well...um...if I tell you this, do you promise not to tell anyone?"

"Y-Yes, of course." Bonnie said, putting a hand on the bunny's shoulder. He would never give away one of his friends secrets. It just wasn't in his nature.

"O-Okay...well, I...kinda liked it...when we kissed...it was the first time I'd ever kissed someone...and..." Bonnie's eyes widened. He never thought he'd hear Bon say that.

"And...?"

"A-And...well...I was wondering if...um...maybe we could...do it again?" Bon's cheeks turned twelve different shades of red after she said this, as did Bonnie's. Though, he had to admit...he wasn't necessarily against the idea.

The two sat in silence for a moment, which made Bon think even more that her idea was dumb.

"U-Um...n-never mind..." she said quickly. "f-forget I-"

"N-No..." Bonnie cut off. "i-it's alright...I, um...I kinda wanted to say that I felt the same way...it's just...I-I guess I didn't know how..." Bon's heart began to race when she heard this. Bonnie really did feel the same way she felt...or, at least enough to want to kiss her again. There was another brief pause. "So...um...you wanna...?" Bonnie asked, looking away for a moment. Bon's cheeks continued to glow as she nodded.

"O-Okay...here goes..." she said, puckering up her lips a little as she leaned forward. Bonnie did the same, and after what seemed like eons, their lips finally connected. Bon could've sworn she felt her heart flutter at the moment they started. She couldn't explain why, but this feeling made her almost believe that she was floating on air. She closed her glistening eyes, and savored the moment for all it was worth.

After a moment, the two broke away. Both bunnies were in shock and at a loss for words. It was just so...amazing. They were both quiet for a little while, before Bonnie finally spoke. "W-Wow...um...that was..."

"...yeah..." Bon said, her blush continuing to light up her cheeks. It was almost like she knew what Bonnie was thinking. "...w-well...um...th-thank you." the blue bunny said at last. Bonnie smiled.

"Heh...n-no problem. Th-Thank you..." he replied, putting an arm around the blue belle. Bon smiled, and nuzzled his chest with her cheek.

"Bonnie?" she asked, looking up at him.

"Yeah, Bon?"

"That night we first met...thank you...you were right. We do have a lot in common..." Bonnie let out a happy sigh. There were no words that he knew of that could describe the feelings he was feeling right now, but as long as he was with Bon, there seemed to be no better way to feel.

"No problem, Bon...thanks for being my friend..."
