"Now don't be greedy- There's plenty of goodies for all of ya!" The bottle of fish flakes were gently shook above the water. The colorful food fell into the tank. Funtime Freddy watched as the fish swam and dove through the water, gulping and taking their share of fish food. The robotic bear felt something bump against his foot, causing him to look down. He smiled happily. It was Kevin. "Hey, little buddy! You ready to go back into your home?" The hamster chattered and ran a small lap around the plastic exercise ball. Funtime Freddy closed the tube of fish flakes and sat it down beside the aquarium. He leaned down to pick Kevins ball up and then brought him over to his cage. The bear gently twisted the top off and placed the open ball to the cages door. Kevin chittered and hopped down onto the wooden shavings, giving his robotic friend another chitter before finally heading to his hidey-house. The hamster had a stash of sunflower seeds there. Funtime Freddy gave a sigh and wiped his brow as if he was sweating. "Phew! What a job... Y/N's really responsible for taking care of all these little guys." He glanced over to Bon-Bon, who was reading one of your comic books. The rabbit acknowledged him with a nod of agreement. Funtime Freddy let the blue bunny hop onto his hand and then the two exited the room.

Baby was seated in the Control room. Her and Ballora had just finished a much needed conversation- One about you, Ennard, and Yenndo. The clown was worried about the three of you... Even though talking with Ballora was very relieving, Baby still had worries. But, deep down, she knew Ennard would keep you safe. No matter who the three of you were up against.

"I just hope they return soon, Ballora..."

---

"Guys, can one of us switch spots? It's getting boring back here by myself." Came Yenndos groan. Ennard poked his head through the small back window and pushed in until his shoulders had stopped him. He glanced up at Yenndo with a bland expression. "And just how are we supposed to switch spots, Yenndo?" He quipped. The endo bear paused before giving a shrug. Ennard returned to his seat and sighed. He looked over to you. "Well, with the pizzaria being under new management, you should think about doing some designing. I know Baby and Ballora would love that." He spoke. You smiled and looked up from the piece of random paper you had been reading. "Yeah, they would. Maybe we can even add some carnival rides!" The two of you heard Mr. Henry give a gentle laugh. "Woah, you two! One thing at a time. Let's focus on getting the building back in order first." The man said. He turned onto a small road. Ennard gave a small laugh himself. "I think some carnival rides would be great!" The clowns smile turned into a nervous grin. "Although... Maybe the tall rides can be avoided..." Yenndo piped in, throwing the whole conversation off. "I can't wait to be back home- Lolbit must miss me sooo much. And I can't forget about Bonnet~" Yenndo laid against the back window and sighed. Ennard nodded. "Yeah, I know for certain that we've all been missed. Especially you, Y/N." He finished. You smiled at him. Baby most likely missed you the most. You remembered the day when you'd first found the place, that being the old, worn down pizzeria... Baby had found you sitting in the lobby, cold and crying. The fact that the humanoid clown could actually talk and communicate like a normal person could- It definitely had you confused, but something about her made you trust what she was saying. She wanted to help you- To take you in. And that's exactly what she had done. And now you had helped her in return. William Afton was defeated, and now their abandoned facility was about to be given a new start. You just couldn't wait to tell her.

The truck drove into a parking lot and finally was placed in park. The ignition was shut off and the four of you stepped out of the red and black dually. Henrys hands came to brace his hips. He smiled. "Welp. We're finally here." The man turned to Ennard. "Clowns first~" Ennard gave a smile, but then turned to you. He grinned widely and bowed, his hands swinging to point at the door. "You heard him, Y/N~" You could've slapped the endoskeleton. You walked up to the glass doors and gave a hefty push. They opened and the four of you stepped into the old office. As usual, the place was reeking with neglect and abandonment, but that would all change soon enough. Yenndo fiddled with the elevator control box for a moment before he had turned to give an 'Ok'.

---

"Now this goes here... That one goes there... Where does...? Oh, of course- It goes here..."

The sound of an elevator had broken Lolbits concentration. The fox was working on a group of stray wires that went to the main fuse box, when the rusty sound had made him pause. The tool he held was dropped unintentionally as he slowly got to his feet. He stood still, his ear swiveling to acknowledge the sound of familiar voices. "...I... Is that...?" Over the stern attitude and expression he always held, a faint smile had grew over his orange snout. He turned to face the elevator as it finally came to a stop. Then the metal doors screeched open.

His hearing was right all along. You all had finally returned.

The first to notice Lolbit was Yenndo. The endoskeleton maneuvered past everyone and practically threw himself onto the fox to engulf him in a tight hug, a happy laugh erupting from his throat. "I MISSED YOU, LOLBIT! HAHAHA!" Surprisingly, the white and orange animatronic had hugged the endo back with a hearty laugh of his own. "Look who's talking, you big pile of bolts!" The two released each other from the hug. Lolbit spared a glance to the rest of the group. "I see the mission was a success. And all of you are..." He paused for a moment upon noticing a missing teammate. "Springtrap... Is he...?" Ennard stepped from the elevator along with you and Henry. "Springtrap's fine. He's staying at Mr. Henry's house." The masked endo replied. Henry added to the answer. "Yes... My diner has been reunited, and now it's time for yours to be." The man spoke. Lolbit showed a smile as he gave an acknowledged nod, and then the five of you were headed to the main area.

—-

The 'walk' was a short one. It had to be with all the excitement that you couldn't hold back. You crawled from the vent and sprung to your feet, a joyful smile radiant across your face. Your eyes searched for a certain red and white animatronic, one who came into sight soon enough. Baby had turned and gasped. She ran to and hoisted you off the ground into a tight embrace. She twirled with you. "GOODNESS, YOU'RE BACK! Oh, I was so worried! Ballora, they're back!" You were placed back on the ground, only to be pulled into another hug by Ballora. You never even heard her approach. You were practically crushed to her chest as she gave you the same hug that Baby had. "Thank goodness, you're alright, Y/N. The others and I were so worried about you, darling." The ballerina released you from the hug. Ennard was next on their hug list, which he couldn't avoid. Baby thanked him for keeping you safe, while Lolbit got to work on Yenddos slashed chest wiring. The endo told him the story of how he'd gotten the mark, and Lolbit had saluted him for his bravery. It was an attribute he had earned for certain. The reunion lasted until everyone had gotten a hug from you. The minitronics had practically tackled Ennard with their excitement, but the clown couldn't be any more happy to return their heartwarming gesture. You were finally reunited with your friends. Your pets were glad to see you, too, especially Kevin. A special 'Thank you' was given to Funtime Freddy for babysitting your pets in your absence.

"I really appreciate you watching out for them, Funtime Freddy. Thank you." The bear smiled a giddy grin after you'd pulled his head down to give him a small kiss on the cheek. He giggled bashfully. "Aw, you're welcome, Y/N!~"

After all the excitement had calmed down, Henry discussed the plans of opening the pizzeria back up again to the others. They were all delighted to hear the news. Baby had missed being on stage so much. And now they all had a new start, one that didn't involve being used for some evil plan... Her and the others couldn't have wished for any better. She held Henrys hand between her own and shown a thankful smile to him. "Thank you, Mr. Henry."

You stood beside Ennard. The two of you were watching everyone dance and talk amongst one another. A celebration was being held, a grand opening for Circus Babys Pizza World- Except the event was for the animatronics. It was being hosted outside in the pizzerias parking lot. Ennard smiled warmly at the sight of Baby and Fredbear. The two were standing beside a food table, chatting away. Ennard spoke up and caught your attention. "Now that I think of it, those two have a lot in common- Being main mascots and all? I know they both missed being on stage." He spoke. You continued to watch the two, laughing when Fredbear had abruptly turned to false a glare at Springtrap- Who had just flicked a marshmallow at him from across the table. You couldn't help but smile at the playful scene. "Those two are clearly from the same restaurant..." Ennard turned to find the minitronics. All of them were playing a game of tug-o-war with Plushtrap. Yenndo and Lolbit were talking with Henry, presumably about the new and improved restaurant and such: The two animatronics would be the animachanics of the place no doubt. Your eyes continued to watch everyone have fun, until you noticed that Ennard was no longer beside you. He had turned to walk back into the pizzeria. "Ennard...?" You caught up to him, giving a playful nudge to his arm after coming up to his side. "Where're you going?" The playful tone made the endo smile. He shrugged and held the front doors open for you. "Just looking... This place looks like a whole different restaurant. I think it's gonna take some time to get used to." He replied. You mouthed an 'Oh'. "Yeah,... Well, look at it as a fresh start. And besides, the place looks great!" Your hands braced your hips as you glanced around at the newly refurbished lobby. "The pizzeria will be opened soon, everyone can get back on stage, and I'll be the new manager!" You stood to resemble a security guard. "So no clowning around, mister!" The false command made Ennard laugh. He put his hands up and then saluted as if he were in the army. "Ma'am, yes, ma'am!" He laughed. The two of you continued walking.

Idle chat was rolling by. Jokes, laughs, and short stories were all included as the two of you talked. "That was the scariest thing I've ever done! Ballora and Baby thought it was a simple trick, but I was the one being used as the 'Audience Volunteer'." Ennard was telling you a story of how he first discovered his phobia of heights: Baby and Ballora were practicing for a circus act, and Funtime Foxy had been rented out for a birthday party that day, so Ennard had became their acrobatic in-between... He shivered uncomfortably at the memory. "Never again." A small laugh left your mouth as you strode forward alongside the endo. The two of you had walked through Ballora Gallery, through Funtime Auditorium, and then had came to a stop. The Breaker Room stood strait ahead, and the hall to the security office stood to the left. And to the right... The Scooping Room... It wasn't there anymore. The room had been torn down and replaced by another room. Every animatronic had an area of their own, and now? Ennard did, too.

The door was slowly opened. Ennard took a slow breath as he stepped into the room and then turned on the light. The new area still had a feeling that he hadn't quite gotten used to yet. You stood beside him to look. A warm smile crossed your face and you glanced up at him. "We'll... I think it came out looking really nice. The colors aren't too bright, the decorations are snazzy, and-" You strode into the room to pat a bed that hung from the wall. "-You even got your own place to sleep. So no more cold nights in Parts and Service!" Your big smile brought the same gesture onto Ennards face, although it was done with half the enthusiasm that yours was. You were the one who came up with the idea: Turning the room into an area where Ennard could have his space. It was really thoughtful, and the way the room had been decorated showed that. He just didn't know what to say. The endo had seen the room before, but had been a little hesitant to actually stay in it, even if it was located in Funtime Auditorium... Ennard gave a sigh and leaned against the doorway. "Yeah, it is really nice. I really appreciate the thought you put into it..." His hand came to rub his neck as he forced back a flushed expression. "But, uh... Just drags that your all the way over on the other side of the pizzeria now...." The loose side of his mask had unintentionally opened, and that showed what he was trying so hard to hide. His hand swiftly drew up to close it once again, a wide, flustered smile crossing onto his face. He laughed. "Aha..." A smile of your own drew onto your lips as you quirked a brow. It wasn't hard to catch onto the slight flirtiness he appeared to be pushing. A hand was placed atop your hip, and Ennard could've sweated with the grin you were giving him. The words that left your mouth next almost had him short-circuiting.

"Ennard, is there something you've been wanting to tell me?~"

He. Had. Stopped.

For a second, you actually thought he had froze up with a glitch or something, but then you'd seen him inhale a deep breath after a minute. Holding the air within himself, the endo casually walked over to you and then exhaled. His hands came to brace your upper arms, and he smiled down at you. Say what he would, the flustered look on his face was almost making you laugh. Ennard swallowed and then opened his mouth to speak. "Y/N... I-"

"There you two are! We're about to..."

Ennard had froze to glance over at the doorway. As always... It was Yenndo. Ennard scowled at him, causing the endo bear to pause. After realizing what he had just interrupted, the golden-eyed animatronic gave a nervous smile and then rushed out the rest of his sentence. "...shoot-the-fireworks-Ok-bye." The endo turned and left almost as soon as he had came. The two of you heard his metal feet clanking as he ran to exit the Auditorium. You regained Ennards attention with a short whistle. He turned his head to acknowledge you, taking a moment to remember what he was about to say- And how to say it. "Y/N, listen. I know this is really odd coming from me, but... Uh... Ever since you've been staying here, I've kinda, well... I think I sorta..." His face was so flustered. He had to take a moment to breath. And then the words had finally fell out. "I... I like you..." There it went. He had finally spilled the beans. Your face had became a little red by his confession, but not nearly as bad as his was. Deep down, you always knew this was coming. A small smile grew on your face. Ennard had froze at it, subtly begging to know what you were going to say. What he didn't expect was to be pulled into a tight hug. You laughed. "You big goof- I knew you liked me!" Ennard smiled and gave a nervous laugh of his own as he hugged you back. "Wha- Really? Y-you did?" He stuttered. You realeased him from the hug to hold his hands. "Of course I did! Why do you think I like spending so much time with you?" Your reply made him smile wider. He shrugged. "I-I just thought you found me neat!" You pulled his head down and laid a short kiss to his nose. And boy... That had him wobbly.

The sun had set. Everyone sat out on the grass to watch the firework show. Springtrap and Fredbear were in charge of the lighting, which meant that the two were harmlessly arguing over the best one to light. The minitronics chased each other around with sparklers, and Plushtrap was fortunate enough to snag a Roman candle- With which he was blasting at Bonnie and Foxy. You and Ennard ran out of the pizzeria to see the beautiful show of sparkles and light as they exploded in the air. Greens, reds, purples, every color you could think of. Ennard stepped back as Bonnie and Foxy ran past him, tripping over each other as they avoided Plushtraps 'tactical nukes'. The small rabbit paused to give the two of you a smile before continuing with his hot persuit. You laughed when a silly idea popped into your head. "Maybe Mr. Henry should come out with a toy line for him- 'Plushtrap Chaser' sounds catchy, don't you think so?" Ennard watched the small rabbit land a hit to Foxys rear, causing the fox to jump and howl. The endo laughed. "With that accuracy, I'd be the first to buy one!" The two of you walked to join the others as the firework show commenced. You happily held Ennards hand in your own, practically dragging him along to where Yenndo had reserved a spot to sit and watch the fireworks. Springtrap had caught sight of the warm scene. He nudged Fredbear and mentioned to the both of you, a gentle smile coming onto the rabbits face. "I do believe there's a different type of spark being ignited tonight, wouldn't you agree, Fredbear?" The gentle tone was paired with the bears deep chuckle. "Seems like it, SpringBonnie. Now..." Fredbear grunted as he pulled up a huge firework. The thing was apparently named, 'The Grizzly'. He grinned. "How about we light this bad boy already?~"

Across the street, behind the newly opened Circus Baby's Pizza World, laid another building. It, too, was a pizzeria- A big one. Bright flashes of color shown through the buildings front windows, igniting the faces of four animatronics who sat and watched the fireworks from within the large building.

"I'm shocked to see that those animatronics are out roaming like they are- And without a security guard!"

"Oh, shut it, Mr. Showbear. Those guys got freedom that we ain't! Consider 'em lucky. We're all stuck in this stupid Pizzaplex."

"Ugh! They must think they're better than us- Maybe better than all of you, but not better than me!"

"I think their fireworks are beautiful! Pink and green are my favorite colors!"

The four had paused upon hearing a pair of wheels roll up behind them, making the group turn. A white robot in a tan hat stood looking at them. It pulled up its arm to show a piece of paper that it held in its hand. All four of the animatronics let out an aggravated groan as the robot spoke, it's voice as mechanical as a robots could be- And speaking the only line it ever did.

"Please take a map."
