The day Foxy told Chica about Lefty's past was not just an awe day, but she also thought about inviting all her friends, and some of the little gangs in the group, to that fair Lefty mentioned in his story; the school year was slowly coming to an end, therefore she thought it would be another great idea for her whole group to get along.

   Chica had talked with her friends, with Springtrap's gang, Toy Chick's friends and Baby's so they can go; she did not want to invite the whole group either, she preferred to go out with those she has talked with. They agreed with her, although it did not mean that, during the entire day, all the groups had to hang out together.

   It was already Friday, and all of them were about to come out from their class; they decided to go there during their three hours free so they could go back for their last today's class.

   When everybody was keeping all their stuff, Marionette spoke up to stop her friends from getting up from their seats.

   "Guys, I'm not going."

   "What? Why not? Are you scared of the rides?" Chica asked.

   "I don't see why she shouldn't be it, I bet you've had bad experiences because of your height," Bonnie said.

   "No, silly. It's just that… I already had plans for today." Marionette turned her tone of voice sweeter as though her plans were too embarrassing to be heard by robotic eardrums.

   "What are you gonna do?" Chica folded her arms on her chest. Marionette kept quiet while looking down.

   By studying her reaction, Chica concluded it was about a guy, and since Marionette had not shown interest in other guys, she knew who she meant. Her eyes widened once she figured it out.

   "You're gonna be with Springtrap!?"

   "Oh, come on, Chica, don't give me a speech now. We haven't gotten to be alone during free hours."

   "But today we were all supposed to go together to that fair, you could even invite him."

   "Yes, Marionette, why don't you invite him?" Mangle asked with the same sweet tone of voice.

   "I can't. I promised him we were gonna be just at school, not somewhere else." Marionette got up as she took her backpack and walked toward the door. "I'm sorry, guys."

   The three of them looked totally puzzled at Marionette, they had never seen her like that; it was like si somebody were threatening her right in front of their noses, but they also knew Marionette was not a girl easy to fool or to manipulate. If she was not in love, of course.

   "I don't know what was that, but what the hell. Let's go!" Chica left the classroom as excited as some minutes ago. Bonnie and Mangle followed her; each one by either side.

Although Chica had seen the positive side of knowing Lefty's past, she still felt sort of uncomfortable by walking near the building where that tragedy happened. However, she did not let it disturb her day with her friends.

   The entrance was bowed with a giant sign on the center as the park was roofless; the whole park was under a wide, blue and bright sky in Autumn. From the entrance it was visible, mostly, roller coasters, a wheel of fortune and flying chairs. Since they had decided to go there on a day animatronics consider as a good day to get some fun. The rides had long lines, as the food stall were also surrounded by many animatronics.

   Baby's gang was already out of Chica's sight; she knew they had come, because she saw them from a distance in the school's entrance. She just could see Foxy's gang standing next to a tree.

   "Come on, dude, don't let it keep you from enjoying a good time." Foxy put his hook on Lefty's back, who was sort of sad.

   "Hey, jackasses," Chica said as she walked up. "Where did you put Springtrap?"

   "He isn't here," respondió Foxy.

   "Really?" she asked again; she already knew he was not in the fair, but she wanted to have something to talk anyway.

   "Yeah. It's just the three of us." Foxy shrugged.

   "Well… why don't we go onto some rides? These three hours are going to flow like water." Chica looked sideways at Lefty, who was still looking down. She knew she was not able to act like she did in the party; she had to stop messing into Lefty's life and start making hers, beside the fact of the different perspective she had at him since Foxy told her that story. After some seconds thinking quickly about who she was going to hang with—even though she came with Bonnie, she decided to stay with Mangle and Foxy.

   "Where are you going, guys?" Chica asked as she walked between them with both of her arms hung over their shoulders.

   "We were thinking about going to the tunnel of love. Want me to get ya somebody to go on with?"

   "Oh, you're such an asshole." Chica took away her arm from Foxy. He was laughing. "Forgive for using rude words at your boyfriend, Mangle, but sometimes I feel like he needs to be talked like that." Mangle giggled.

   "I'll just wait to see you with boyfriend," Foxy teased.

   The three of them had gotten far from Freddy, Lefty and Bonnie. The Toy animatronics were not there, as Baby's friends had already spread around. Now they were by their own. Lefty sat down on a bench close to that tree. Freddy and Bonnie did nothing but follow him as if he were in charge of telling them what to do.

   "You're not going on the rides?" Lefty asked Freddy.

   "Man, I can't leave you alone." Freddy put his hand on his shoulder.

   Lefty, after listening to Freddy, turned to Bonnie, who looked off once his sight connected with his; he still felt remorse for the scholarship's issue. He did not think it would be a good idea for Freddy to let him with Bonnie alone; there were many rides where animatronics can be involved in accidents, whether they were on purpose or not.

   "Don't worry 'bout that," Lefty said with his sight clinged on Bonnie's; he was looking at the rides around. "I'll go and find Foxy later." Lefty expected Freddy to be more convinced than himself about his own words.

   "You sure?"

   Lefty was about to make that gaze, but he nodded instead.

   "Ok." Freddy turned to Bonnie. "Hey, Bonnie. Why don't we go and find Foxy and Chica?"

   "Sure," Bonnie replied after hesitating.

   "Why don't you go onto the rhino? I've heard it's painful," Lefty suggested.

   "Really?"

   "Yeah. It's right there." He pointed some point of the fair.

   "Alright. Let's go, Bonnie!" Freddy started to walk toward there. Bonnie followed him.

   Bonnie felt his knees quaking, as his hands could not be still although he struggled hard. When he was a child his father used to take him to a fair where animatronics had to pay way more than that one. He always encouraged Bonnie so he could go on rides, as many as he wished. The problems was that Bonnie did not like to go on rides, especially those ones that, from his child perspective, were enormous; the roller coaster was the one he was afraid of the most. Now that he has the opportunity of being with him again, he won't think about letting him down, no matter how many scary roller coaster he had to go through.

   They both had lined up to get to the rhino; there were as many animatronics as the other lines in the other rides.

   "Bonnie, are you ready for some action?" He hit his palm with his fist twice.

   "Sure." Bonnie faked a smile.

   They waited approximately twenty minutes before they could get to the ride.

   When it was their turn, Bonnie did not feel the ground beneath his feet, but he was rather walking over a loosed floor that could swallow him as soon as he made a mistake or said something hurtful for Freddy. He kept his walk toward the cart.

   "You ready?" Freddy asked excited.

   "Yes." Bonnie could not look at his eyes.

   An employee of the fair got closer to seal their seat and tell them some necessary indications to prevent accident during the ride. They could hear behind and in front of them many animatronics wailing carelessly because of the ride. Suddenly, their body were a little forced in it because of the way the carts started to move together; it was not too hard, but enough to shake them off. They had come out from the small building they were. Now they could see animatronics around. But, as the ride goes on, they could see the trees and the food stall's roofs. Then they could see the rest of the houses' roofs surrounding the fair, as well as the streets and the traffic lights. They finally got to see their school and some animatronics roaming around there; they were already on the top. Bonnie could not help but shudder, he could feel how the cart went from an upward to a downward angle. They both stopped staring at their surrounding and rather focused on the way they were about to go on. Bonnie felt like none of his limbs were connected to him anymore, but they could fly and get off his endoskeleton. The cart started to go downward as fast as it could. Everybody in those carts started to shout. They both wailed too, but none of them knew about each other why. Now they had to wait and hold every turn and random way to ride.

"Hey, I just want to see if there are gums under the tables, don't you see they're free?"

   "Oh, yeah, yeah, they're free."

   Toy Fred and Toy Bon were going to history class, which was the next one, and they still had several hours before it began. Something they most enjoyed was to pick up stuff animatronics considered useless or garbage: gums, pencils, paper, ripped wrap, etc. One animatronic's trash is another animatronic's treasure.

   "Look, I found a caterpillar," Toy Bon said while rummaging among the bushes.

   "You can't eat worms. We gotta find more gums."

   "I'm gonna call it 'Pit'".

   "Then Pit told me he had an important meeting, so we have to let him go."

   "Oh, yeah, yeah, am important meeting. Good luck, Pit." Toy Bon followed Toy Fred, who started to go upstairs of that building.

   "Hey, but our class is down there."

   "I wanna see if I can find up here gums." He kept walking until the end of the corridor.

   They were tiptoeing nearer the last classroom as though the gums underneath the tables were going to hurt them if they made any strident noise. When they got there, they could hear some sort of liquid sound, like an animatronic stabbing with their fist onto a bag with some water in it.

   "You hear that?" Toy Fred asked.

   "Yeah, it's my stomach, I'm starving."

   "Not that. That," he said while pointing the classroom's door, it had no windows to the corridor, just to the back part.

   "Someone is eating."

   "Yes. Let's join them."

   "Oh, yeah, yeah, join them."

   They kept walking as subtile as they could. Toy Fred stood in front of the door, and, abruptly, he kicked it; he wanted to scare the animatronic inside. Instead of finding someone eating, they found Springtrap penetrating Marionette, who was lying on a sweater on a table. Everybody freezed when they saw each other.
