Some things My “OLD (FNAF) AU“
—Reason Why I Called it This Way: It’s centered around my series of Old Headcanons that I had when I was 6-8 (I had gotten into FNAF in Mid-Late 2015 at the time). So this kinda makes it the Oldest AU I Ever Made.
To summarize this confusing Monstrosity little me created, it goes like this.
—The Afton Family (Who btw, consists of Vincent (Born: September 17, 1943, Crushed to Death: November 10, 1993 — If anyone who’s new to the Fandom wants to know who tf is Vincent, he’s is the Old Fanon Version of William Afton. And I hate to say it, but I’m one of the Many People in the Fandom/Community Who “Probably” Had a Fat Crush on Him), Verretta (Born: December 11, 1945 — Take a guess), Terrance (Mikey obviously), and Chris (Evan/CC — Yes, I know it’s Dave before anyone decides to pull an “uMm, aCtUaLlY” here-) are British-Canadians. — Though Verretta’s French-Canadian — Somewhere between the Mid-to-Late 60s, after the Pair got married, Vincent & Verretta moved from Montreal-Quebec, to San Jose, California in the US. It is there that on April Fool’s Day 1968, they gave birth to their oldest son, Terrance Afton. — Less than a few years later on May 18, 1971, Chris Afton/Mike Schmidt came around (AYYYY HE SHARES THE SAME BIRTH DATE AS ME). —
—Then there’s the Schmidt Family (From yes, the FNAC Trilogy, at least at the time of writing this). They consist of Angelica Sherwood (Born: September 21, 1935), Thomas Schmidt (Born: August 15, 1935), Michael “Jack” Schmidt (Born: August 17, 1964 — Clarification: At the time I mentally came up with this stuff, I was unaware that Mary’s Brother was Younger than her, so I just assumed he was her Older Brother), and of course, Mary Schmidt (Born: Christmas Day 1970).
(In a nutshell, before I REALLY go into the Main Stuff, FNAF & FNAC are literally in the Same Universe)
FNAC 3 (Side-Note: The Fake Ending doesn’t exist here, and this all takes place in 1976-77 — Ironically, a Few Years Before FNAF 4)
—Mary is completely traumatized/mortified from witnessing a little Incident that occurred at the Rat & Cat Theater. Out of both her Parents and Older Brother’s Concerns for her Well-Being because of the Nightmares Mary has been having from what happened that day (Not helping with how it’s affected her Creativity to a point where she disturbingly-accurately draws Demonic Versions of the RAT & CAT), Angelica & Michael take their Daughter to see a Therapist.
—The Puppeteer is Monster Vinnie, unsurprisingly.
—Jack was away at Camp while this was all going on. A year later in 1977, with the Rat & Cat Theater reopened and the Actors replaced by new Animatronics, the Schmidts visited there, and Jack was utterly amazed on the Seemingly-Advanced Movements the Animatronics had (Unaware that they happened to be possessed by the Murdered Rat & Cat Actors). The moment Jack ran up to marvel the Rat Animatronic (Which was his Favorite btw), it suddenly slammed into him to the head. As you can imagine, although this Injury was miraculously Non-Fatal, it traumatized Mary instantly.
—As the Sessions continued, Mary began opening up more and more on what happened on that day, and eventually spoke out the Truth. In the close end to them, she blamed herself over the Murders of the Rat & Cat Actors (Which were done by The Puppeteer, even though first one was an Accident). The Therapist does tell Mary to not blame herself for all of that, following the Completions of 5 Nights. On the Final Night, Mary successfully confronted Monster Vinnie (aka The Puppeteer, who was arrested by the Police) and conquered her fears. All in which to one Final Therapy Session deemed Successful.
FNAF 4 (1983, Oh boy.. THIS is where the Fun starts)
—5 Days Until The Party. (Cue the Minigames) —
—Chris/Mike has been plagued with Nightmares of the Animatronics going out for the kid’s Head, combined with him having to defend against the Bloodthirsty-Demonic Looking Robots with a Flashlight and his Fredbear Plush (And maybe also Vincent) supposedly helping him along the way. — Not helping with the fact that it’s Halloween Season. —
—ALSO not helping with the fact that Terrance and his Friends (The Other Mask Bullies) have been repeatedly tormenting Chris/Mike over his Fear of the Animatronics during this time.
—The Bite Of ‘83 happens of course. Only this time, Chris/Mike somehow miraculously survives.
—Unfortunately, Terrance (And the other Mask Bullies) are not so lucky. Less than a few days later on November 10, 1983, they’re all Murdered by Vincent and become the Missing Children. — Verretta divorces him over this, but she chooses to remains Single. —
—Oh and the reason for all of this was stemmed from “Vincent & Verretta Paying More Attention to Chris/Mike Than Terrance” (Something in which the Couple both regret doing btw).
—The next few weeks after The Missing Children (Teens in this case) Incident, Chris/Mike meets Mary for the first time, and they both instantly become Best Friends-turned-Childhood Lovers. Mainly because of how much the Duo have in common.
—Following the Closure of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, Candy’s Burgers & Fries takes place. Because no Chain is complete without a Rival.
—The “Pair of Twins that Went Missing in 1987 (And were later discovered to have been killed in one of the Assembly Machines in the Abandoned Factory)” possess Candy & Cindy, as well as the 3 Other Kids (Whose names I’m not gonna mention here. Anyone who wants to take a guess on them, I’m willing to accept as Canon) who were Murdered before possess Old Candy, RAT, Blank, and Chester (Often misnamed “Diddy Kong” a lot by Marylin Schmidt)
—Later in 1989, Mary Schmidt (Now 19 at this Period) becomes the Nightguard after the Previous one for the Factory got fired for what was basically Negligence that led to those Children being Murdered in the first place (The Negligence being, “Sleeping-on-the-Job”) blah-blah-blah.
—After several Weeks of Constant Up-All-Nighters, Mary is fired one day for “Tampering with the Animatronics.”
FNAF 1 (1993)
—On March 4, 1993, Chris Afton (22 Years Old) became the New Nightguard at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. It’s also around this time that he changed his Name to “Mike Schmidt”. — Mainly because since the Events of FNAF 4 (Especially since The Missing Teens Incident) began to have a strong Dislike for his Family Name. See why I’ve been referring to him as “Chris/Mike”? —
—Chris/Mike reunites with his Older Brother (Terrance, who btw, is inside of/possesses Foxy — Dear god I hope I said this right… 💀💀), who opens up to Chris/Mike on what REALLY happened to him and his Friends while he was recovering at the Hospital. At the same time, Terrance (Foxy) apologizes to Chris/Mike for what they all did to him. Especially for the Bite Of’ 83 (That Well-Intentioned, But WIDELY INADVISABLE Prank that Ended Up Going Disastrously Wrong). Now Chris/Mike did end up forgiving Terrance (Foxy) for the Events of FNAF 4, but he was understandably a bit frustrated with the other Mask Bullies (Mark (Bonnie Mask Bully), Fredrick (Freddy Mask Bully), and Jerome (Chica Mask Bully) — There, here are their Names. I think it should be obvious on which of the Fazgang these 3 morons all separately possess) over again, the Events of FNAF 4. But he does eventually forgive them.
—As the Brothers begin to reform their broken Friendship, Chris/Mike does tell Terrance (Foxy) on what’s been happening with him after his Older Brother & His Friends were murdered by their dad (Vincent). — He met/fell in love with Mary Schmidt, became Besties with her Older Brother (Jack Schmidt). At this Time-Period, Chris/Mike & Mary are officially Married. Plus they have a Technically-Adopted Kid named Jeremy Fitzgerald (That’ll be important later!! Also Side-Note: He didn’t exist when I was originally mentally crafting this all up. I just added him now because of.. you know. Rebornica/FNAFNation’s AU?) :3 —
—Like any Older Siblings, Terrance (Foxy) does initially tease Chris/Mike on the Lovers thing. — So do the Other Mask Bullies. — But they all congratulate/commend him for what he’s accomplished and his efforts on Starting a New Chapter in his Life. — See? They’ve changed! 😃😃 —
(Also worth noting that Chris/Mike’s Friendship with his Older Brother & the Mask Bullies has improved vastly compared to how it was in FNAF 4)
—Unfortunately, after almost 5 Months of Working as the Nightguard, Chris/Mike was fired on June 31 that Year for the exact same bs reason his Wife (Mary Schmidt) was. Take a Guess on what it was.
—A little while after his Departure from Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza on August 31, 1993, Chris/Mike & Mary gave birth to their Technically-Youngest Daughter, Marylin Schmidt. (That same Year, Chris/Mike would eventually become a Member of the LA Police Department, and Mary would become a Therapist. — For obvious reasons)
(What Happened BEFORE FNAF 1 — 1990-92)
—As I just conveniently mentioned here before, on May 18, 1990 (His 20th Birthday), Chris/Mike & Mary FINALLY got Married. (As I just said, Chris/Mike would eventually become a Member of the LA Police Department, and Mary would become a Therapist. — For again, obvious reasons)
—On August 9, 1991, Jeremy (Born August 11, 1975) met Chris/Mike & Mary when he was kicked out by his Piece of Sh** Dad (Alexander Fitzgerald, Born September 2, 1944) at 16 Years Old.
—To make a long story short on who Alexander was, well… to put it mildly, he was not a nice dude. Alexander was a Drunktard who often Abused his Son for his Own Personal Entertainment and other times, for literally no other reason other than despising Jeremy’s vary existence (Both Physically and Verbally. He would even tell his own son many times that he was Worthless and that he “Should’ve Put him Up for Adoption the Moment He was Born”). The Physical Part would often get much worse on Friday Nights in case Alexander got Severely Drunk. Because of all that, the Couple decided to essentially take him in as their Adopted Son (Eventually on January 25, 1992, Jeremy would become part of the Afton/Schmidt Family)
(The 1993 Springlock Failure Incident)
—November 10, 1993: Vincent goes ballistic on the Animatronics by Bashing (and Dismantling) them One-By-One with an Axe with brute strength. Afterwards, while being chased (Later surrounded) by the Spirits of Terrance (His Oldest Son) & His Friends, Vincent idiotically seals his fate by putting on a SpringBonnie suit. And then the Springlock Failure Incident happens which leads to him becoming Springtrap blah-blah-blah. (SPOILERS: Literally what led to him being Crushed to Death in the Springlock Suit was the large amounts of Sweat pouring down on his Body)
—On the Day of the SECOND Reopening of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, Jeremy Fitzgerald became the New Nightguard (Though he’s accompanied by Chris/Mike for, Protective Dad-Instincts. Let’s say).
—Both Adoptive-Father & Son narrowly survive after… I’m not saying it (You have to!) ALRIGHT FINE. After 5 Nights. (Happy Brain? -_-) Getting that Mental Converstation I had right now as of writing this out of my head, on the Final Night however, Jeremy almost got (Fatally) Bitten by Mangle. Luckily, Chris/Mike immediately shoved his boy out of the way and was about to go ballistic on the AMTFKATF (The Animatronic Formerly Known As Toy Foxy — I’M SORRY I HAD TO-).
—Like his Adopted Dad, Jeremy would also become a Police Officer after his time at Freddy’s.
—October 27, 2001 (1st Night): A New Attraction called Fazbear Frights, which is “based on the Mysteries On Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza”, is set to open on Halloween (Conveniently, it’s now the 18th Anniversary of the Bite Of ‘83 at this time).
—Chris/Mike becomes the New Nightguard to make sure everything’s in working order. (SPOILERS: He is, but at the same time, he isn’t)
—October 29, 2001 (3rd Night): Chris/Mike reunites with his Father (Vincent/Springtrap) and they, along with Terrance & his Friends, all slowly, but surely, patch everything up.
—Halloween 2001 (October 31, 2001; 5th/Final Night): Chris/Mike commits Arson on the Soon-to-be-Opening Attraction at 6AM, freeing the Trapped Souls in the Process. And everyone lived Happily Ever After! THE END! :DDDD
— Note: Terrance/Foxy & Vincent/Springtrap ended up choosing to return to Earth for obvious personal reasons. Vincent/Springtrap does remarry Verretta (Now 56 at this time) and yeah. Life is Well in the Afton Family. —
(FNAC 2, 2007 — END OF OLD AU)
—May 14, 2007: After losing a bet to one of her Friends at School, Marylin Schmidt (Now 13) has to spend 5 Nights at the Abandoned Factory that was originally owned by Rowboatics Corporation, which was closed down in 1993 after the Several Fatal Incidents that occurred inside. She initially tries to hide it from her Parents (Especially from her Older Adopted Brother — Jeremy). But when she opened up to her Dad (Chris/Mike) on what she’ll be doing in the next few Nights, Chris/Mike understandably refused to let her complete the supposed “Dare” her Friends set her up on. However, left with no other option seeing on how serious his Daughter is on the whole thing (But also more on the fact that her Classmates will more than likely think she’s a Chicken), he decided to let her Spend the Nights at the Abandoned Factory. — Obviously, Chris/Mike accompanies his Daughter throughout the entire thing for very obvious reasons. (I mean, need I remind y’all that Marylin is THIRTEEN here?) —
—Father & Daughter ultimately complete the Widely-Inadvisable “Dare” together. After the 5th & Final Night, specifically a Day After Chris/Mike’s 36th Birthday, the Abandoned Factory is set for Demolition. And a few weeks after this Probably-Traumatic Experience, Marylin’s Summer Break officially begins.
— I sincerely apologize to anyone who mentally screamed over this Badly-Written AU that 6-8 Year Old Me mentally crafted. Though at the same time, it feels pretty nostalgic reminiscing all of this here. —
(I’ll be posting Artwork for this cr*p soon! :D)
