Marinette dies at 6. So when William is arrested she escapes and takes the form of a 6-year-old, so now she is 16 since Willaim was arrested 10 years ago.

"The truth is... I was born. From what I have found out, I was switched at birth. There was another family... the Amana's (ah-MAH-nuh). They also had a baby, the doctors told them that their baby might not survive. It had a lung birth defect. They had been trying for years to get a baby, but now being told their baby was going to die... it was heartbreaking." I paused to see how my words sunk in. Ms. Afton just kept staring at me, so I continued. 

"They... they switched me with their baby. I know your probably wondering how no one noticed... I don't know how they did it either.  I never knew, they had me cover my eye because it reminded them of what they did. They just wanted a normal family. We were normal..." 

"That was in tell I was 6... We went to Freddy Fazzbears Pizzeria... Dad was still killing... he saw me. He told me he wanted to give me a surprise. So I followed him, the room had an animatronic inside. It was missing a leg and arm, I liked it. I walked over to it, I asked if this was my surprise. He just walked over and stood over me. I saw the knife. I tried to scream, but he slit my throat. I bled all over the animatronic, I don't remember what happened next. The next thing I know, I am somewhere cold... I tried to open my eyes, I tried to move. I couldn't... all I saw was black, but I could hear. I heard William laughing, I heard kids running, and dying. It stopped though... finally it stopped. 1983... the bite. Willaim was gone for a while, but not for long. This time it was different, he touched me. I could hear him working on something... Soon I could open my eyes, I looked around. I was in the room I died in. William was in front of me, he was smiling. I tried to reach for him, he looked surprised. I tried screaming, all that came out were these strange radio static sounds." 

By now Ms. Afton was crying, but she was listening carefully. I continued, "I yelled out telling him to leave me alone. A robotic tone escaped my lips, I screamed What did you do to me? He just looked surprised. He then asked what my name was. I told him nothing. He turned around and shut me off. I saw black again. When I was powered on again, everything was different. I could move, I could talk. Willam was there, I tried to get up and run. He told me to hold still... and I obeyed. He could control me, that's when the nightmare really began. He ordered me to kill children, all I could do was watch. It hurt so much... Years passed and I was powered off again. I don't know why, but I was glad I couldn't hurt anyone. Willaim came to me again though, I don't know how long he was gone. He turned me on, he asked me to show him my true form. He handed me a small disc, which was inserted into the back of my head. The next thing I know, I am shorter. He was crying he asked me why I had a purple eye. I told him I was born with it. Then came the blackness again. When I woke up again no one was there, I was alone. At least I thought I was alone, something was wrong. I called her Moon... she is like a virus that... she made me do things, but I got rid of her. The rest is history, but now I am back...

"I am so sorry sweety" Ms. Afton softly said, then she hugged me. 

"T-thanks Ms. Afton..." 

"Call me mom"
