Chapter three: "It had to follow it's program and save the child."

The Marionette lay silent in it's box, waiting to perform. It tried to peak out of the box to find it's target, Charlotte. Each kid is a given a certain wrist band when entering the pizzeria. The Marionette was programmed to protect anyone with a green wrist band, and Charlotte has one.
It tried to get out of the box but failed, the Marionette then heard children walking away. It tried a few more times until the lid and the box that was holding it down came off. It saw a girl with a green wrist band standing at the window, she seemed to be locked out. The Puppet animatronic saw her for a few seconds, and then she started to fade away.
It went through the door labeled 'Exit'. There were a bunch of water droplets falling from the sky, it was pouring. The animatronic didn't care, it had to follow it's program and save the child. It went exploring outside trying to find it's assigned child, the rain breaking it more and more. When it was just about to malfunction, it noticed the same girl lying on the ground. She was dead. The puppet went over to her and then finally malfunctioned right next to her.
