Enemies [Help Wanted/Gameverse – no pairings]
“He’s coming Spring. He wants to hide in you again.”
Spring Bonnie shook his head, his neck squeaking in protest, he didn’t want William to use him again.
“Don’t worry, this time you can stop him. He can’t put you to sleep now.”
The rabbit watched as the spectral form of his best friend faded just as William raced into the room. His creator was in a panic, stumbling over himself and falling next to Spring’s still form. Trembling hands pushed the crank into the back of the bot, forcing the aging endoskeleton into suit mode.
But this time Spring was awake.
William barely had time to stand as the door to the saferoom flew open revealing the Marionette and the ghostly forms of the children that haunted the band. Seeing him in the suit stopped them just as he hoped and he laughed in triumph. Ghosts or not, they were still only children.
Will’s laughter cut off at the familiar voice. One he hadn’t heard in years.
“I w-won’t let you huuurttt anyyyonnnne ag-g-ainnn.”
Horror enveloped the killer when the entire suit quivered as the springlocks began to strain against their hold. The springocks were failing- No. Spring Bonnie was making them fail.
The arms and legs snapped into place, dropping him to his knees, the abrupt jolt from the fall sending the torso into full failure. Shuddering and falling back against the wall, William weezed in pain as he slowly bled out. As he looked at the ghostly children, he could now see two new ones flanking the puppet. Henry’s daughter Charlie was on one side and on the other…”Mitchell?”
One arm struggled to reach for his youngest son, when the head of the endoskeleton snapped into place and he could see no more. His arm dropped to his side and as he faded away he heard Spring speaking to the spirits.
“Y-you can g-g-ooo now. He’s g-g-gonnnne. C-can’t hurttt anyone anyymooore.”
