Escape Room (37)


Poppy's POV

Every toy quickly evacuated into the Machinery Room while the police searched the factory.

I hopped down a vent and saw everyone gathered and hovering towards each other, while turning and twisting their heads. The only one, who wasn't there was Mommy. I couldn't find her myself.

"Poppy's there! Poppy!" Daisy quickly rushed to me with other toys gathering.

"Alright.. everyone shut up!" I yelled as everyone quietened down.

"Why are the police here?" Bron asked.

"I.. I'm- I don't know!?" I panicked.

"Maybe Y/N snitched?" Candy Cat suggested.

"That's surprisingly said from you Candy," Bunzo replied.

"Okay everyone be quiet! I'm trying to think!" I yelled before trying to get everyone to sit down.

"Pops!" a rushed voice came from the vents. Mommy!

"Mommy? What happened?!" I asked.

"Listen everyone!" Mommy quietened everyone. "The police are here as you all know and I don't exactly have a plan, but at least 2-3 ideas."

"What are they?" Cat Bee asked.

"My first idea was that.. we could kill. All of our hunger levels would increase or we could run. Running isn't the best for everyone, but we could get to safety easily. Or.. we could hide here until they leave."

"We should do a vote!" Kick-Me-Paul stated.

"Wait- where's Box-A-Boo?" Huggy asked.

"I- I'm not sure! But I promise that he's not gone!" Mommy answered.

"Where's Y/N?" Kissy asked.

"I don't know that answer to that either!" Mommy replied.

"I think she definitely reported us or who could've?" Bron asked.

"Are you stupid? Can you all stop attacking Y/N because she's human? This happens all the time because of the disappearance of the 3 co-workers!" Kissy replied.

"You asked!" Bron yelled.

"She's not gone," a voice said. A masculine, but basic or robotic voice almost. Boogie-Bot!

"How do you know?" I asked.

"Box-A-Boo showed me the camera footage."

"Does he have it? Where is he?" Candy Cat asked.

"He's on his way."

The vent door-thing opened up with Boxy hopping down with a cassette tape. I forgot Box-A-Boo dosen't talk. He only makes some weird screaming noise when he eats someone.

He handed me the cassette tape labelled 'saved camera footage 13'.

Huggy's POV

I put all my attention on Poppy putting in the cassette tape in the player. The footage video started with the police being shown outside the gates and walking in.

Some of the footage switched to the different cameras. You could see the police exploring different areas of the factory with their incomprehensible, glitchy torches from the bad quality.

The camera switched backed onto the one watching outside of the gates. Luckily, that's the only good one we have. It even has vivid quality and you could hear a lot better.

Y/N was seen on the camera running up to the gates before a policeman yelled. Stupid police.

Y/N ran back towards her car and drove off.

"She did betray us!" Bron gasped.

"No! She couldn't go inside.. I think she's driving somewhere. Maybe to get help!" Kissy replied.

"How would she help? Especially with all those police!" Bron said.

Reader's POV

I arrived at Troy's house after a five minute drive and rushing to knock on the door since I didn't exactly have my keys.

It felt weird.. it's like I was finally free or I just ran away because of a distraction.

I started to knock on the door with Troy answering it. He had his baggy hoodie with shorts on.

"Y/N?! What are you-"

"I'll explain! It's a weird story to say," I replied.

Troy just shrugged and closed the door behind him after letting me inside. We both sat on the sofa in the living room and I noticed Sombrio entering the room.

"Sombrio!" I exclaimed and stroked him gently.

"He missed you. Wait- so..? Are the toys allowing you out now?" Troy asked.

"Not exactly. Basically.. I finished work and hung out with Yolanda and Tash for a while," I stated with Troy just nodding. "Then I drove back home and police were outside the factory and they wouldn't let me in also since I said I didn't know anything."

"Shit," Troy replied.

It was almost complete awkward silence until my watch started beeping. I forgot I even had it on. Wait.. I can text and call?!

"Sorry- uhm," I hesitated and looked at the message.

Poppy: (Texts)
Hey, did the police not allow you in?

Reply please!

I stared at the texts with Troy, "What should I do?"

"Reply obviously! Maybe just state the truth?" Troy answered.

I nodded before texting Poppy..

'I'm here! The police wouldn't let me in because it was 'under investigation'. Do you know what they meant?'

Poppy: (Texts)

Maybe.. just listen! We need your help! No one knows what to do!

'I thought you guys were always prepared for things like this.'

Sometimes! But they have more policemen and women day by day! Plus.. there's something you need to know!

'What is it?'

I can't explain right now! Is there a chance you could watch security if I give you the link to the camera footage and protect us, while we're hiding?

'I don't know.. where are you guys?'

'Machinery Room! It's not that easy to find in the factory, but we need help! And keep us updated!'

Narrator

You watched Poppy type as she sent you the link along with a 'pleaseee'.

"Geez. Are you now friends with them?" Troy sighed.

"What? Well- it's complicated!"

"Sounds like it."

"What's with you?! I didn't asked to be kidnapped by toys!" you yelled.

"Maybe you didn't, but you agreed. They took my wife away from me!"

"Troy- you've never complained until now?!"

...

A hour later, you was now at Nanny Delaney's House while still watching the cameras.

"I'm still mad he yelled," you sighed.

"He's stressed, honey. But if he's not there for you, you could've told me about it. As much as I hate that factory, you're my grandchild. I'll protect you."
