An Unlikely Friendship / Sundrop and Gregory - A Security Breach Fanfic

Chapter Twenty-Two

In Monty's room, everyone else was chatting. Monty picked up his bass guitar and began to play. Bonnie nodded approvingly when he stopped. "Great job, Monty. You've learned well."
Monty flashed him a proud smile and Gregory blinked, confused.

"Learned well?" He asked.
Bonnie nodded and straightened himself proudly. "I taught him how to play!"
"Woah," Gregory stared at them in awe. "You two go way back, then?"
Monty and Bonnie exchanged a glance. "Sort of?" Bonnie shrugged.

Roxy paced back in forth, her tail twitching impatiently. "Where is Chica? It's been a while. I should go check on her."
"I thought you said to leave her alone," Monty pointed out.
A growl slipped from Roxy's throat. "That won't matter if she's in danger!" She snapped.

Sun stood up. "Good idea, Roxanne. I've actually been thinking about that for a little while too. Gregory, come on."
Gregory hopped off the couch without question and followed Sun and Roxy out.

They searched and searched around the area, but found no sight of Chica. This did not make Roxy feel better. She growled once they had given up. "If Freddy hurt her, I swear to-"
Sun put his hand on her shoulder. "I'm sure she's okay."
Roxy looked away and flicked his hand off. "I'm going to keep looking."

Sun stood helplessly, watching as Roxy took off. Gregory looked up at him. "Are you sure she's okay?"
Sun couldn't look into his sad eyes. "I... don't know."
Gregory looked at the ground, holding back tears. Sun noticed and immediately picked him up.

"Gregory, she'll be okay! She's strong."
Gregory sniffed. "It's just that... she felt like a mother to me. I don't remember my parents, so I've always been alone. But she was so kind to me..."
Sun couldn't help but feel a bit jealous. Gregory was his first friend. Moon was more like an annoying sibling.

Suddenly, the lights powered off again. Sun's body changed, transforming into Moon's. Once the change was complete, Gregory braced himself. He knew Moon. He thought that he would drop him on the ground. But to his surprise, the animatronic didn't.

Moon just calmly sat down and continued Sun's attempt at comfort. Gregory blinked away his tears, growing more tired by the minute. As seconds ticked by, Gregory once again drifted away into sleep.

Moon slowly exhaled. Sun, there is a child sleeping on me. Help.
Let him sleep, Sun ordered.
Moon hesitated at the idea. I'm not good with kids. You know this. Remember the incident?
Sun didn't answer for a moment. You'll be okay. The lights will return soon. You'll just have to sit still until then.

Moon silently agreed. I mean, at least he didn't have to do much. But as he sat in silence, he couldn't help but shiver at the thought of hurting another child.
