Save the Factory (Poppy Playtime Reader Insert)

The Counselor's Office

Ollie then finished talking, "And when you're at your most vulnerable... He'll kill you. Catnap lives for the hunt. Good luck."

The phone then hung up as you were left in silence at the base of the statue in the middle of Playcare. You stayed silent as you looked up to the now closed door. "Let me get that." Kick said as he opened the door and walked down the steps with Dogday in his arms. "I'm back! And I got (Y/n)!" Kick called out as you saw Miss Delight approach the bottom of the stairs, gasping at the sight of Dogday. "Oh my god. Dogday..." Miss Delight said as Kick carried him over to a couch that was now present in the area, where Crafty was sitting anxiously. Her eyes also widened at the sight of the Critter, and she quickly got up and embraced him, and Kick to a lesser degree.

You entered the area with the Toy Critters of Bobby Bearhug and Hoppy Hopscotch on your shoulders, catching the attention of Miss Delight. She quickly came up to you and began inspecting you. "(Y/n)! Oh thank goodness you're alright. You're not hurt are you?" She asked as she held your arm out in front of her. "N-No. I'm fine. I'm just glad you and Crafty are still safe." You responded as you then pointed to the two Toy Critters, "I found these two along with Dogday while in Playcare." The two nervously hid behind you as Miss Delight looked at them. "It's alright. She won't hurt either of you." You comforted the toys, giving them the confidence to hop down off of your shoulders and walk up to the couch, one helping the other up before being dragged up by the first.

Crafty took a moment to look at the toy critters, observing them sit down in the corner of the couch before looking back at Kick, and noticing Bobby's emblem tied onto his necklace. As the others began to settle down, you went over to where the tube was located, and found a key at the end of the hook. Taking it off, you walked back over to the others who were now getting comfortable, Kick, Dogday, and Crafty catching up. Miss Delight walked up to you and asked, "Are you really going back out there so soon?"

You looked down at the key in your hand, and then closed your fist around it as you said, "I have to keep going. There are others I initially came down here with, and they need me. I can't leave them to die, and the longer I spend here, the more it feels like it'll be too late to save them." Miss Delight looked down before she placed a hand on your shoulder, giving you a comforting smile as she said, "Then you do what you need to. I'll look after the five here."

You thanked the teacher as you quietly walked out of the area, leaving your bag of food at the door and trading it for the Grabpack Kick had set down. Heading up the stairs and out of the statue. Once again on your own, you looked about the area, your ears perked for any sudden noise. Once you thought the coast was clear, you quickly ran over to the large building resembling a museum. Finding several hung up dead toys around the door, you gulped as you put the key into the lock and twisted it, opening the door to the Counselor's Office.

Heading down the twisting corridor, you entered the office itself, spying a battery socket on the wall adjacent to a locked door, leading to a room filled with red smoke. For safety, you quickly made sure that the gas mask was on your hip. Once you felt it, you began looking around for the missing battery. Soon, you spotted a scratched message saying, 'YOUR TOOLS WON'T PROTECT YOU'. You turned around to avoid the message, and soon spotted a broken air duct, with the battery needed inside.

Pulling it out and placing it in the socket, you entered a different room where another one lay in wait. Looking around what seemed to be a secretary's desk, you spotted a vhs, with 8/8/95 written on the side. Placing it into a vcr, you looked to some of the hung up tvs, seeing an emergency alert playing. The screen quickly flashed red as a voice spoke, "The following message is for all Playtime Co. employees.
