Gabriel Marcs sat at the table with the white cloth covered in a confetti pattern, he had a big smile on his face and a party hat on his head. 

Mrs. Marcs carried the cake to the table singing Happy Birthday to her dear son, who blew out his candles as the last note was sung, his friends clapped excitedly... except for one.

"Cassidy, aren't you gonna have some cake?" muttered Jeremy Fisher, Gabriel's best friend and right hand man, as he smeared some frosting onto the sleeve of Fritz Barker, who made a face at him.

Cassidy sighed "I don't know you guys, I just have a real bad feeling about all of this, something about that guy with the purple suit that works here, he gives me the heebie jeebies," 

He scratched his dirty blond colored hair, and slumped over onto the table, "Cassidy, everything's great, we've got cake and pizza, this party is a blast! Trust me, we'll be okay," Gabriel reached across the table and placed his hand on Cassidy's shoulder. Cassidy looked down at the smiley face on his own shirt, he wished he could just be happy for Gabriel, but something felt wrong.

Susie Chantel looked over to the kitchen, she saw someone in a Spring Bonnie costume waving to her, "Guys look! One of the preformers is waving at us! Let's go say hi to them!" She said excitedly, her blond curls bobbing up and down as she bounced.

"Cassidy, c'mon! Let's follow Susie!" says Jeremy, taking Cass' hand and pulling him along towards the preformer. 

"Hiii!" said Susie excitedly, waving back at the person in the suit, the person tilted their head at her and gave a small hand gesture to follow them. 

"I have a surprise for you all, follow me," the voice that came out from the suit was raspy and hushed, a mans' voice.

Cassidy shuddered, not wanting to follow, but as the others all headed toward the door, the preformer took his hand. 

Cassidy wanted to struggle, to run, but he was being pulled along like a ragdoll. The preformer turned to Gabriel, "It's your birthday, isn't it, little boy?" he said, the same gruff tone of voice as before showing through. 

"Uh-huh! Me and my friends are celebrating here at Freddy's!" Gabriel said, nodding excitedly, "Gabriel..." Cassidy said, but his voice came out cracked. Gabriel didn't hear him and continued along with the others, while the preformer led Cassidy down the steps behind all of them. 

He led them all into a back room, the kids were confused, "Huh? What's the surprise?" Gabriel asked, the group saw that the animatronics were laying on the ground.

The employees had said the animatronics needed repairs that day, but this felt...wrong. 

"Close your eyes and see for yourselves," said the man in the Spring Bonnie costume, Cassidy sprang into action as he saw the glint of a knife sitting on a table out of the corner of his eye, "Don't listen! He wants to hurt us! Run away, and get the adults!"

The man pulled Cassidy close and covered his mouth, but the damage was done, the others scattered and tried to flee, but when Jeremy and Gabriel made it to the top, they found that the door was locked, the man tossed Cassidy aside and chased the boys.

The man's suit clanked as he came up the steps behind them, they heard him humming "Pop goes the Weasel," as he came close to them. 

"Happy Birthday, Gabriel, make a wish," he hissed as he stabbed the blade of the knife into Gabriel's stomach, all of the others screamed as Gabriel slumped forward dizzily into the man's arms. 

He let Gabriel fall, and Fritz leapt forward to catch his wounded friend, "Gabriel! Gabriel! Stay with us, please, wake up! You have to wake up, it's your birthday!" Fritz sobbed over the boy in his arms.

It was Jeremy's turn next, "Are you ready to join your friend, Jeremy?" The man asked him, Jeremy went to speak, but felt the blade of the knife go across his throat, spraying blood over the Spring Bonnie suit, Susie screamed, the man directed his attention to her.

"No one will ever hear you down here, little girl, no one will come and rescue you...It's just you 3, and me," Cassidy shivered, he said 3 because Gabriel and Jeremy were now dead. 

He came toward Fritz now, still holding the limp, pale body of Gabriel in his arms, "Time to play a game of tag, you're it," he whispered, digging the knife blade into Fritz's eye socket, Fritz covered the socket with his hand, but the man stabbed the other eye too.

He then took the knife to the boy's throat, giving him a wound to match Jeremy's, Fritz slumped over onto the floor, choking and sputtering, then he was quiet.

"Little Susie, want to play too?" The man asked, Susie wailed and cried, Cassidy threw himself in front of the man, "LET HER GO!" He demanded. 

"Real cute, kiddo, now move aside sport, so I can complete this," Cassidy growled and pulled Susie close.

The man simply shoved Cassidy aside, he tumbled to the floor, Susie backed away, but before he could kill Susie, the Chica animatronic fell on top of her with a sickening *CRUNCH*

Cassidy vomited at the sight, the man chuckled, "Just you and me now, buddy, your death will be different then the others, I have big plans for you, Cassidy Caldwell," 

Cassidy struggled to get up from the floor but slipped on the blood littering the tiles and fell down again, hitting his jaw on the ground hard.

The man raised the knife over his head with both hands and plunged it down into the boy's back, the blood curdling scream that erupted from Cassidy was too horrible for anyone to describe.

He was stabbed over and over and over, blood pooled over his shirt back, and from his mouth, he coughed hard, until the man brought the finishing blow, turning him over onto his back, he stabbed the knife one final time into the boy's heart. 

Cassidy's breathing slowly stopped, his eyes flickered shut, he stopped fighting and went completely limp...Cassidy Caldwell, was dead. 

The man picked up the boy's body and carried it over to a golden bear suit, it donned a purple tophat, bowtie and jacket, he took the head off and slid the body inside.

He put the head back and smiled behind the suit's mask in satisfaction, he found how to dispose of the bodies.

"Not bad, William, not bad," he chuckled to himself... 

He hummed "Pop goes the Weasel" one last time as he went to clean up the scene.
