Penny rose up with a loud yawn. The room still felt a bit different after the third morning, maybe that would change after she got new stars to put up there. She got out of her bed, picked out some clothes, and went to the hall bathroom to get ready for the day. The scent of frying bacon floated up the stairs and filled the hall as she finished. It wouldn't be too long before her mother would call her and Nade down for breakfast so she only went into her room for her watch. The watch she left on the nightstand next to the window.
She looked at the window and to her surprise the curtain was open. A young yellow bear was staring right back at her with wide blue eyes. She was wearing a white dress. It was like a strange mirror. The child scurried out of sight as soon as her shock subsided.
"Penny, Nade, breakfast is ready." Neda's voice snapped her out of her own frozen state.
"Mama! Mama!" SpringBear ran up to Plushy as she poured some milk on some Trix.
"What's got you so excited?"
"There's a girl living in Uncle Teddy's old house!" The girl crawled onto the seat as she exclaimed.
"Someone broke in?" William was ready to charge in and confront the theoretical criminal.
"Oh, that's right. We forgot to tell you someone bought it."
"Who are they mom?" Freddy asked as he dipped his spoon under the milk.
"I don't know too much, just that they're a family of four like your aunt and uncle..."
"Maybe we should greet them to the neighborhood."
"That's a great idea Freddy, but what should we bring them? Guess we can't just make them pizza. Has to be something they can eat later..."
"What about cookies?"
"That is the logical choice...I wanted to impress them with something special though."
"We can make the cookies special."
"Yeah, we can make ones with different nuts and chocolate when we're done with breakfast and give it to them after lunch. How's that sound?"
"That sounds fun Mama but, what if they're really mean? What if they see my legs and think I'm a freak?"
"Oh Sweet pea, I don't think they'll do that, but if they do much as utter one little word we'll leave and never visit them ever again, OK?"
"Ok Mama."
"That's right, the minute they say 'Hello' we're outta there."
"Philip, eat your cereal."
"Hey, Neda, did you see the article about the carnival that's coming soon?" He asked as his wife sat next to him.
"That sounds fun...Phin, did you buy that at the restaurant and waited all day yesterday just so you could read it at the breakfast table this morning?"
"...You know how I prefer to read the comics when I wake up."
"Mom, Dad!" Penelope hurried up to her seat as the rest of the family settled down. "I saw a someone."
"Oh?" Her father folded the paper discarded it. "Did our neighbors finally return?"
"I saw them through the window. They ran away before I could say anything, but I guess they wouldn't have heard me anyway..."
"They ran? Sounds like they weren't supposed to be in there. What did they look like?"
"They were a kid like me Mom. I don't think they're a burglar." She poured some honey on her toast.
"Hm, Must be shy." He cut the sausage as he spoke. "You two going outside today?"
"Sure."
"I don't know, Maybe?"
"It's going to be very hot today, don't forget to bring a water bottle with you."
"I know." She started to think about the girl. So many questions about who she was and what her family was like. Then there was her face. She looked scared when she ran. Penelope was getting a bit too distracted as she poured the syrup to make a face.
"Penny, don't waste the syrup."
"Huh? Oh, sorry Mom."
"Is there something bothering you?"
"Still worried about the neighbors huh?"
"Yeah, I just hope...It's not important."
"You know you can tell us anything. What's wrong?"
"She caught me by surprise...I don't think I changed, but why else would she run away?"
"Oh, She probably wasn't expecting someone to be here. This house has been empty for some time." Neda softly padded her daughter on the back giving a warm smile. "You'll be fine."
"Your Mother's right, you have better control of your self then when you were a baby. I don't think you have to worry about anyone seeing that again."
She looked up with a still unsure but hopeful smile. "I guess you're right."
He felt it was wise to change the subject. "...You know, I don't go back into work until tomorrow. Maybe we can go on a little day trip into town, since we spent most of the weekend unpacking. We can go out for lunch, maybe see what stores they have, or explore that park. What do you think Neda?"
"Would be nice, wouldn't it?"
"I don't know about the park, but that other stuff sounds good." Nade answered before gulping some milk.
"It does sound fun."
"Ah, I love the smell of fresh cookies." Robert nodded eagerly at Plushy's statement. Five of the FazBears traveled into the kitchen to see if the treats had cooled yet.
"Hey Ma, This is an awful lot of cookies..." William spoke as he and three of his siblings took in the varied sweet aromas.
"Yeah, never know what kind they might want."
Robert stared to sign, "I don't think they could eat all of them, maybe we could help?"
"You could?" She gave her children a smirk. "Well, you did help clean up, so you can have two each." The kids immediately rushed up to pick their two favorite flavors. "Don't take too many macadamia and white chocolates." She waited for them to collect their reward then started putting them in separate Tupperware containers. "So, Billy, Bobby, you coming to greet our neighbors?"
"Nah, I kinda want to start repairing my castle set after Icy ran into it."
Robert on the other hand signed that he was glad to join them. He was a bit curious what they were like and he knew his little sister was still uneasy about all this. They put all the containers into a couple grocery bags and walked the short path to the next house giving a light knock to the door.
"Hello?" The wife opened the door and studied the two rabbits and twin cubs. "Can I help you?"
"Hi, We're your neighbors. Well, not all of them. My husband's at work and three of our older kids thought they were too cool to greet the new neighbors." She motioned to her rabbit son. "This is my son Robert,"
He waved his large paw.
She moved to the cubs. "These are the twins Frederick and SpringBear,"
"Hello Ma'am." The said together. Spring sounded so small. She looked up at the stranger and wanted to hide behind her mother and brothers, but she forced a smile instead.
"And I'm Plushy. We're the FazBears, some of them anyway."
"I'm Neda. It's so nice to meet you. Won't you come in?" She moved out of the doorway and let them in. "Make yourselves comfortable. I'll go get the kids."
"Wow, You really jazzed up the place." Plushy noted as she and the children moved into the living room where the husband stood up from his seat to introduce himself.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Phineas NightShade." He held out his paw for a handshake.
"Hello." She hesitated for the slightest moment before giving a handshake. "We made you some cookies. I wasn't sure what kind you wanted...Hope it's not too much."
"I don't think the kids would mind." He said with a chuckle. "Thank you, I'll just take them to the kitchen."
"You can keep the containers. We have plenty."
"Penelope, Nade?" Neda looked around the two bedrooms to find her children playing a racing game. "Some of our new neighbors are here. Do you want to greet them?"
"Do we have to?" Asked Nade.
"Wouldn't be very polite To eat all the cookies they made without saying Hello."
"I'm sold."
"Only some?"
"Apparently they have fairly sized family. They seem nice, I really don't think they know or saw anything."
"They probably would have came with pitchforks and torches if they did." Her Mother grew a worried expression.
"Penny-"
"Sorry, I was just joking mom." She pushed herself up and followed her to the living room.
"Penelope, Nade, these are our neighbors the FazBears."
"Hello." "Hi" Penny and Nade waved.
The twin cubs smiled as they approached. The girl looked a bit shy holding tightly to her skirt.
"My name is Frederick, but you can call me Freddy."
"My name is SpringBear...Your name is really pretty Penelope."
The little black bear's ears perked up, she wasn't sure she heard her right. "Thank you. I think your name is cute."
The blue eyed cub smiled brightly. "Thank you."
"Miss FazBear brought some treats in the kitchen, you can have two each."
"Yes." Nade slid back off the couch he was just trying to climb.
"Oh, Just call me Plushy."
"Aren't you guys going to get some?" She asked as her and her brother climbed the stools to get to the kitchen counter.
"We already had some."
"You should try the chocolate pistachio. They're really good."
"Your mom makes them too?"
"Well, it was kind of by accident..." Freddy looked at the kitchen. Despite there being the same counters and walls it still felt a little foreign to him. "It looks so different now."
"So, How do you guys like Masons County so far?" Plushy asked.
"It's been nice. Feels secluded but not too far from the city."
"The town seems to have a lot of interesting stores. We haven't been able to check out all of them though."
"Too busy unpacking huh?"
"For the most part, but there is one restraunt that's been closed all weekend. We thought the kids might like it. I hope they open again soon."
"Really? Closed all weekend...You don't mean FredBear's Diner, do you?"
"Yes."
"Oh, no. We're not- We were just closed for some renovations. We're open today. Probably should have mentioned that on the note..."
"You work there?"
"Yes, My husband and I own it, and we preform every Friday and Saturday."
Penelope carefully poured some milk into the cups before asking, "Did you come here a lot?"
"Yup, Our cousins lived here."
"Oh, You probably miss them now, huh?"
"Yeah, We miss Faye and Amelia a lot. We visited them last weekend, they're doing ok."
"Guess it kinda sucks seeing someone else in their old house..."
"Not really, as long as your not mean burglars."
"You don't have to worry about that." She said with a smile. "I didn't mean to scare you earlier through the window."
"That was Victor's old room. Did you find his favorite toy stash? He left them behind in the move."
"No, Where is it?"
"I can show you, it's hard to explain." She ran across the kitchen. Penny followed her knew neighbors optimistic about future development.
Here we go, Plushy as Pamela Voorhees
I don’t think it would fit Plushy to be Pamela but still XD
*Takes deep breath*
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW PERFECT THIS IS!!! Plushy would totally have a mental breakdown if something happened to her precious babies. I love it. You made her so devilish. QwQ
Guardian and crafter of the earth, its ground, and oceans. Her emotions can be quite dangerous as they manifest in the form of weather. Lava tends to flow from her mouth sometimes...
Jewelry Salesmen often like to claim their goods were taken straight from her womb but that is not true and she does not find it very amusing.
If you leave sweet cream or chocolate milk for her in the middle of the night she might pay you a visit and fix your clothes with her magic golden thread.
