Suddenly, Toy Freddy and Toy Bonnie burst into the room.

"Chica?! Why are you in here, with the monster?!" Shouted Toy Freddy in horror.

"She's not a monster!" Toy Chica scolded back, to my surprise.

I sighed. Toy Bonnie was looking at Toy Chica with sympathy. She had told me that she had fancied Toy Bonnie earlier on, and by the way he was looking at her now, it looked as if he liked her too.

Then I glanced at Toy Freddy. He was fuming.

"Fred, she's my friend!" The chicken protested.

Toy Freddy sighed. "Come on. It's time for bed, it's getting late."

"Bye Mangle." Toy Chica sniffed reluctantly.

"See you soon..." I mouthed at her as Toy Freddy turned around.

I noticed that Toy Bonnie had seen me. I winced, but he just gave me a half-smile, which made me confused. Why were Toy Bonnie & Toy Chica being nice to me??

I couldn't sleep that night, so I decided to pay Foxy a visit at Parts/Service. Who knows, I might even make friends with the old animatronics!

Excitedly, I swung up onto the ceiling, and made my way down the dark corridors, full of disturbing shadows. Once I got to Parts/Service, I knocked on the door quietly, hoping that Foxy would hear and open it. I expected everyone to be asleep, but to my surprise, as Foxy opened the door, I heard loud shrills of hysteric laughter coming from the withered robots inside.

"Mangle?! What are ye doing here lass? It's not safe!" Foxy gasped.

"I wanted to see you. Please just let me in." I pleaded.

Foxy glanced behind him at the other animatronics.

"They won't be happy Mangle. But okay...come in lass." He sighed.

I flung myself onto the ground, and smiled shyly at the old robots.

"Hi guys! I'm Mangle, Foxy's counterpart. Lovely to meet y-"

"We know who you are and you're not welcome here! Get out!" Shouted a grubby chicken, with her broken wings outstretched. Old Chica...

"Chica, she's my really close friend, and i promise you she is not like the other toys! They bully her terribly lass, c'mon you have to believe me!" Foxy protested.

"Yeah c'mon Chica, she doesn't look that bad, she's all withered like us. I'm guessing you're the take-apart-and-put-back-together attraction then, eh?" Agreed a faceless Old Bonnie, his glinting red eyes shining at me.

"Yeah, I am." I sniffed.

"She's breaking the rules. And I like it. She sort of counts as a withered animatronic anyway." Old Freddy exclaimed.

Chica shrugged, scowling at me.

Suddenly, a distraught Toy Freddy bursts into the room.

"Mangle! Oh my god, we've missed you so much!" He cried, pulling me into a hug.

"What's going on? Why are you being nice to me?" I asked, confused.

"SEE! SHE'S LYING!" Shrieks Chica triumphantly.

"She's not! He's pretending, lass!" Foxy cried.

Freddy and Bonnie just looked at each other, obviously puzzled about who to believe.

But before I could say anything, Chica grabbed me and Toy Freddy and chucked us out of the room, slamming the door in our faces.

"Was itsy bitsy Mangle hiding away with the ugly old robots? Was she scared? Awwww." Snorted Toy Freddy, shoving me against the wall.

"Ow! Get off me!" I shouted.

I heard the sniggers of Toy Bonnie and Toy Chica behind us. She had tricked me. And so had Toy Bonnie.

All I could do was climb out of Toy Freddy's grasp, shove past Toy Bonnie and Toy Chica, and swing as fast as I could, all the way back to Kids Cove.

I was never going to leave my room again.
