Brian rushed to get inside the pizzeria, he was late! And if he was late he couldn't go to check on the vents for the dolls because Helpy would bug him about minigames! Chris was floating next to him, Charlie decided to rest in the abyss. As he opened the front doors and saw Helpy on the computer, he spoke out of breath "What...are you doing?" The small looked up and smilled "Avoiding Springtrap" Wich earned a small 'ah' from the human. The small robot handed him some golden coins before going back to the computer , he opened the curtains and took deep breaths... Springtrap walked over to him and placed a hand on his shoulder making the man flinch, The bunny robot spoke in the softest tone he could muster , and it was quite impressive for someone who sounded like a smoker "Are you okay?" The brunette looked up and smilled "Just dandy, thanks Springtrap!" He stopped breathing heavily before looking around "Lefty isn't on?" The green robot shook his head "No, we didn't want him to get more damaged then he already is" The brunette nodded his head "Well, you ready to go to the vents?" Springtrap nodded and they headed to the back rooms, this time Springtrap pulled down the ladder, with ease because he was way taller then Brian, they headed up and Brian looked at the dark place "I always forget to bring a flashlight! But that's not the way I wanted to go anyway." He followed the path he and Lefty took and finally they arrived to the dolls. Springtrap walked over and picked one of the little toys up "These look... familiar." To wich Brian mumbled "Of course they would" It thankfully didn't seem that the Spring heard him. He picked one up and looked to the left then to the right " They're both really dark" Brian heard Chris's small voice and sighed, he was right. He thought for a second before he heard a childish giggle cone from the left, Springtrap looked over at the door and looked back at Brian "Did you hear that?" Brian nodded and walked over to the door, opening it. Springtrap tapped on his shoulder and the living boy looked at him "Can I go first? To make sure nothing hurts you." The last part was mumbled but Brian still heard it and chuckled "Sorry SpringBoi but I gotta make sure you don't get hurt, you technically are still Afton robotic's propriety and the company shut down after William Afton went missing so I couldn't fix you, and I kinda like having you around" Brian lied, like he always did. Springtrap looked a bit shocked and as they both stepped into the vent, he said "I didn't know you knew about that." Brian stopped for a second, the dark almost entirely blocking his view, he took a sharp breath and looked at Springtrap with an emotion that the animatronic couldn't identify "Trust me, I know lots of things." He stepped into into the room and looked around for the light bulb, turning it on once he found it. Brian heard Springtrap take a big breath and he looked at where the bot was looking, there was a small girl robot with orangy-ginger pigtails although it seemed that most of it was nothing but wires now, she looked more broken then Springtrap. Speaking of wich, the salvaged animatronic was staring at the little girl with a look of sadness and shock, Brian looked over at Chris who was also looking at the robot, he looked sad as well but Brian will ask later. He walked to the human looking bot and looked all around her, some more dolls were plastered around of her, almost like she had been playing with them, he looked at her back and noticed some inscription, although it was scratched out, it was still readable

Brian looked over at Springtrap who seemed to have finally snapped out of his daydream and was now looking at him with what seemed like begging...? He looked over at Chris who's tears were now flowing more then ever "Please you have to Salvage her!" Brian had already made his decision anyways "I'll Salvage her" Springtrap looked relived and smilled, Brian chuckled when he heard Chris's little cheer. He picked the small girl up bridal style carefully and looked at the bunny bot "Do you mind getting Helpy while I get her to the Salvage room?" The robot nodded reluctantly and the two made their way back.

When he got to the dark room, he sat the girl on the chair and sat in front of her, he took a clipboard and watched her as the audio tests went on. Just like Springtrap, she only had slightly reactions and Brian didn't need to use the taser a whole lot, and she passed the test. As expected Helpy explained in the mic that there are some people coming to get Baby back to the pizzeria, Brian left.

On the way back to the pizzeria, Brian went the shop and bought a sturdy stage realizing that they now needed more than a one person stage. He went back to the pizzeria and once he got there, Springtrap was already fixing baby on the stage, he looked to his right where Helpy was sitting on a table, she smilled and said "Minigame time! " He smilled back and responded "Let me just get Springtrap then we can go." He walked up to the stage and tapped the robot on the shoulder making him look up "Hey Springtrap, It's Minigame time." The broken bunny nodded and got up with a sad sigh, Brian frowned and asked in a worried tone "Are you okay?" Springtrap looked down and spoke quietly "It's just... Old memories you don't need to worry about it." Brian nodded and they made their way to the portal room where Helpy had gone to wait for them. They all jumped in the portal after Brian did the countdown

The portal threw them out with no pity this time, almost of it had a mind of its own... Nevermind that thought! Brian got up with a groan, leaning a bit on the wall "Alright well I'm gonna go home, see you both tomorrow!" Springtrap waved goodbye and Helpy followed him to the front desk, going back to the computer. He opened the door with a last wave to Helpy before walking out.

When he got home, he grabbed a quick snack before flopping down on the bed and staring at Chris. The ghost Boy looked back for a second before tilting his head in confusion, Brian sighed "You gonna tell me why you wanted me to Salvage baby so badly?" The green eyed one looked down, before grabbing both of Brian's hands in his own, he closed his eyes and Brian did the same, asking quietly "What are we doing" Chris replied in a whisper "I'm showing you my memories, this time on purpose"

The child stood in front of a large stage with his sister next to him, their brother and mother sitting at a table not far away, a large voice was heard behind him and he turned around "Now kids, I'm going to talk to a friend for a bit, whatever you do, do NOT go on stage, Is that clear Elizabeth?" That's right, lizzy did find the bots fascinating, especially Baby. Speaking of which, Lizzy had started arguing back to their Father "But daddy! She's so pretty, didn't you make her just for me? She can even make Ice cream, so why can't I get close?" The father sighed "Because, Elizabeth! Do not question me. I'm sorry but it's not secure." He then left with his phone to his ear. Elizabeth looked over at the table where Micheal and their Mother were now also gone not having payed attention to the two children. Elizabeth hoisted her small body up the stage making Chris look at her in Panic "Lizzy get down! Daddy said we can't go up there" The girl rolled her eyes "Oh come on Chris it'll be fine! Daddy never lets us have fun!" The small kid frowned and hugged Fredbear close to his chest "Do what you want I'm.not.going!" The blond haired girl stepped closer to the pig-tailed animatronic and it looked back at her "Hello little one, would you like some ice cream?" Elizabeth nodded and the bot opened its chest, a claw with an ice cream in it coming out. The little girl grabbed the frozen heaven and smilled, the claw went back in the stomach back the trap didn't close. Suddenly another claw went out and grabbed onto he little girl, pulling her into the stomach, Chris rushed on stage and right as the trap closed he reached the clown bot, he slammed onto the stomach with his fists screaming "LET HER GO!" like a sort of twisted knock knock joke

He looked back up to witness the robot's eyes turn from ocean blue to emerald green
