Virus (Sequel To 'A Malfunction?')(Bonnie x Reader)

Chapter 49: Escape (Part Three)

The way love works is interesting, to say the least. So simple and complex at the same time. Most see it as delicate and slow but the truth is, is that it can take many more forms than that. When you hear someone you love say that there's no hope left for them. What do you do? Freddy asks himself the same thing as he stares blankly at Bonnie, who's returning the emotionless glare. He doesn't know what happened to lead him here, in the asylum, and he doesn't know how different he has become.

"So that's it?" Freddy shrugs. "You're just going to go back?"

"What am I supposed to do? I don't belong out there anymore."

"You can go to Montal and get proper help. You don't deserve to be in this place."

"Yes I do. I killed two of my own kind. I even started to like it. I am not right in the head."

"We can try."

"There's no point in trying anymore!"

Freddy has never heard Bonnie raise his voice. Not once. The look on his face hides multiple emotions, all boiling up inside him. Bonnie stands up and shakes his head, taking a few steps back from him Freddy.

"I've tried to fix so much in my life and it never works!" He hits his head against a wall. "Everything I've done has led me here, led everyone else here. I was always hyped up as special. I was the first animatronic. I was the only one not infected. I was going to be the one to stop the virus, and look where I am!"

Freddy stands as well to grab Bonnie away from the wall to stop him from hurting himself. He spins him around and holds onto his arms, making sure he's paying attention.

"Bonnie, listen to me," he starts. 

"I'm not going back out there."

"Either you escape now, or wait for the not-so-sane you to do it because he was very enthusiastic about getting outside and reuniting with y/n." He tightens his grip. "Is that what you want?"

"No!"

"Then why are you stalling? Why don't you want to get out now?"

"Freddy, please... I-I can't do it... I can't last any longer."

Freddy moves his hands to cup Bonnie's face. "You've made it this far, you can make it just a little bit further. So you're going to get off your sorry ass and get out there. Ok? If things don't go well they can just throw you back in here so just get out now."

"But—"

"No buts."

Muffled voices come to their attention outside the blocked door. Freddy looks at the door and then at Bonnie before beginning to pull him along behind him.

"Look, we'll argue about this once it's all over," he says.

With a few tugs, Bonnie starts to walk without any resistance, still not entirely ok with going back out into the open world.

~~~~~~~~~~

That kind of behaviour returns, however, when Freddy leads him further towards any sort of exit. It's not just Bonnie not wanting to go outside though. He'll stop walking completely and stare off into space, try and move in a random direction or even pull Freddy backwards towards him. That's probably a sign that he's already going back to how he was without that shot.

"Bonnie, we have to move."

He growls and hisses to himself, looking around while holding his arms up to himself as if still held still by the torn-up jacket. The pupils in his eyes have turned into skinny lines.

"Y/n's waiting for you."

Bonnie snaps his head directly towards Freddy with wide eyes. He takes one step forward and immediately falls onto his hands and knees. Freddy crouches down next to him only to see him start to cough up oil. He collapses sideways onto Freddy, who holds him close.

"Hey, Fazbear."

~~~~~~~~~~

You have got to be kidding me.

"Thank you for finding Bonnie. We'll take it from here." Apollo plays with a little device in his hand. "Don't want him to suffer now do you?"

He points the device at Bonnie and presses a button. Instantly, he starts to hack up oil and whine in pain while Freddy still clutches onto him. Having him this close and in his arms allows him to notice that when Apollo pushes the button, one of the wires in Bonnie's neck starts to light up.

Freddy looks at Apollo and all the guards behind him. "You're not having him."

"And why's that?"

"Why the hell would I give him to you?"

"You really think he'll be better out there? This place is designed for people like him. Bonnie only started to act up when you arrived."

"Funny that."

~~~~~~~~~~

The wire in Bonnie's neck loses its light and goes back to being a dim black. He himself calms down as well, merely gripping Freddy's shirt and nothing else. That wire is what's being used to hurt him.

"Look, none of us want to be here. Just hand him over and we can all go to bed."

Freddy slowly raises a hand towards the wire and wraps a single finger around it. Bonnie opens his eyes slightly and looks at him.

"I'm so sorry, bun bun."

With one swift motion, he pulls his hand away and rips the wire out of Bonnie's neck. Apollo is the one who screams, however, as he curses Freddy. Bonnie merely twitches for a moment before stuttering Freddy's name in pure confusion. That should give him more time before losing his mind again.

"GET HIM!!!" Apollo yells.

"Bonnie, go! Run!" Freddy shoves him up.

He does as he's told and sprints away as every single guard run after him, leaving Freddy and Apollo alone.

"We use that to control him!!!" He pulls at his hair. "You idiot!!"

Freddy stands up. "Shut the hell up."

"I should kill you right now for what you've done!!"

"You spent too much time on me to do that."

"I don't care!"

"So you're going to try to fight me?"

Apollo cracks his knuckles, trying to be tough as Freddy briefly looks down the hall where Bonnie went.

"Fine..." he starts,

"let's go."

Before I get a slew of comments, the relationship between Freddy and Bonnie is a father son dynamic. That's how I'll always view them so sorry to all the fronnie shippers out there. You're not getting that from me. And yes they're comfortable being huggy with each other because Bonnie loves hugs and Freddy's a big softie.

Also, for those interested, I've started to write a second attempt at His Majesty and if you'd like to help (give me advice, ideas, pointers or even help edit or be a beta reader) then please message me. We can talk entirely through there or Discord/Instagram if you don't want to suffer with Wattpad's dms.
