After you had won Frankie’s gameshow, his viewers and profits skyrocketed, saving him from bankruptcy. The two of you settled for a deal—you’d keep participating in seasons of his game for more and more money, and he’d be able to continue his illegal game show with your help of gaining the attention of viewers.
In the time between seasons, the animatronics had to refrain from being hostile towards you so you could live for the next season. And in this duration of time, she even managed to make friends of sorts with the animatronics.
You remain the champion for about 3 seasons—Frankie had never seen this before. No one had ever even lasted more than a few minutes in this hellhole, much less win three consecutive seasons. You breezed past many obstacles and even seemed to grow more and more confident and comfortable with each game.
This fourth season should’ve been a grand win again.. but after tripping in Connections, you lost some serious ground while being chased by Henry Hotline through the dark halls.
He’s running right after you, and you try to scramble to your feet as quickly as you can—but he gets to you first. There’s a look that flashes through his beady gaze for just a moment—surprise, maybe? Surprise to see you fall, surprised that he might actually have to kill you.
He grabs you and fear bursts through you, contorting your features which he can’t see through your mask, but he can tell it’s there. Henry stares at you for a long moment, not doing anything—he can’t bring himself to. Everything is being broadcasted, but despite it, he’s not going along with any instructions or script.
Silent, Henry suddenly drops to his knees with a heavy thud. He can’t do this. His hands are still grasping you as he lets his rotary-dial phone head slowly fall to your stomach, resting there against your abdomen. He’s grown too close to you to kill you now.
