Chapter 4 - Chapter 2, Part 3: The Circus of Nightmares

Two years had passed since the tragic incident at Fredbear's Family Diner in the summer of 1983, a pivotal moment that had forever altered the lives of the Afton family and their friends, the Golden Crew. The wounds of Evan Christopher Afton's death still ached, and the specter of the Bite of '83 continued to cast a long shadow over their existence.

The Afton family, once a picture of domestic bliss, is now fractured and emotionally scarred. The weight of their loss had taken its toll on their relationships, and an air of melancholy hung heavy in their home.

Meanwhile, Gabriel Afton, the young boy who had unknowingly unleashed the malevolent entity known as Glitchtrap, bore the weight of guilt and responsibility for his friend's demise. He was haunted by the events of that fateful night and tormented by the belief that he had played a part in Evan's death.

The summer of 1985 arrived, bringing with it a sense of change and upheaval. The closure of Fredbear's Family Diner had left a void in the lives of many, and the opening of Circus Baby's Pizza World, a new and seemingly cheerful establishment, was met with mixed reactions.

William Afton, Gabriel's father, had been instrumental in the development of Circus Baby's Pizza World, believing that it would provide a safe and enjoyable environment for children. However, he harbored a dark secret: the animatronics within the pizzeria were not what they seemed. They were designed to capture and possess living children, and William had orchestrated the entire operation to fulfill his own twisted desires.

Elizabeth Afton, Gabriel's younger sister, was unaware of her father's sinister plan and fell victim to the animatronics' cunning. She approached the main animatronic, Circus Baby, drawn by its captivating appearance, and was swiftly captured and trapped within its clutches.

Elizabeth's tragic demise sent shockwaves through the Afton family and their friends. The loss of another loved one was too much to bear, and the weight of grief threatened to consume them.

Gabriel, consumed by guilt and a sense of helplessness, sought solace in the virtual realm of Fazbear Enterprise Help Wanted. He hoped to find a way to vanquish the Glitch Trap once and for all, believing that it held the key to breaking the cycle of tragedy that had plagued his family.

With renewed determination, Gabriel ventured into the digital world, determined to confront the Glitch Trap and end its reign of terror. The battle that ensued was fierce and unrelenting, but Gabriel's resolve remained unshaken. He fought with every fiber of his being, determined to save his sister and avenge his friend's death.

Finally, after a grueling struggle, Gabriel emerged victorious. Glitch Trap was vanquished, its power broken, and the world was safe once more.

The Afton family, forever scarred by the tragedies they had endured, began the long and arduous process of healing. They learned to live with the pain and loss, finding strength in their love for one another.

Gabriel, burdened by his past mistakes, vowed to use his knowledge and experience to protect others from the dangers that lurked in the shadows. He became a protector, a vigilant guardian who vowed to stand against evil wherever it might arise.

The summer of 1985 marked a turning point in their lives. While the past could never be forgotten, they had found a way to move forward and embrace life even in the face of adversity. They were stronger, wiser, and more determined than ever before, ready to face whatever challenges the future might hold.
