Chapter 3... "Shush!" the small panda animatronic said. "You don't want Squeaks finding you, do you?" Duncan stared at the animatronic. "W-what? I thought you- but you- Huh?" Harper let go of his ankle, and sighed. "I followed you. I knew that you would need help." Harper pointed at a vent exit. "Your friend went another way. Quiet dark in the vents. Follow, I know I place you can rest." Duncan hesitated. The voice had told him that they would lead him, but he knew what Harper looked like, and the panda didn't seem harmful. She seemed... quiet likable. Duncan followed Harper. About five minutes later, she pointed at a doorknob. It wasn't as dark over here as Parts and Service. Duncan opened the door and saw that there was 3 other kids. The kids looked at Duncan, then Harper. "Hey, Harp. Who's he?" one of the kids asked. "Simon, Anna, Blank, this is Duncan. Duncan, these are Simon, Anna, and Blank." Harper said. "Duncan, hurry in. Chop chop. Don't want Brittany finding us!" Duncan closed the door, and looked at Blank. "Does she-" he started. "They." Blank responded. "I may look feminine, but I'm non binary." "Why do you look... more transparent?" Duncan asked, hoping that the other kid wouldn't be mad. "I'm a spirit. I'm with Simon and Anna. I saved them from going into the back room a few days ago." Blank responded. "I'm known as Funtime Foxy, as in the one-" "From Circus Baby's Pizza World." Simon chimed in. "Yes, yes, we know." Duncan nodded, and sat down. Harper tilted her head down, then up. "Duncan, I know the voice who's been talking to you. You cannot listen to them." Duncan looked startled. "Do not listen to the animatronic. She will turn you over to Brittany just to get finished. She'll trap you, and send you off with your human friends." the voice whispered in Duncan's head. "Please, I'm trying to save you! Leave that room at once." Duncan looked at Harper, then at Blank. Blank had shifted partly, and a white fox tail and fox ears glinted in the small light. Duncan got up. "Duncan, where you going?" Anna asked. "I-I don't know! I have to find June!" Duncan said. Simon got up, and gave Duncan a hug. "Hey, don't worry. How about we sleep, then get something to eat, then we'll help find June." he said. Duncan nodded. "Yeah." In a few minutes, Everyone was in a sleeping bag. Harper had found them in Parts And Service a while ago. Blank had returned with two boxes of pepperoni pizza, and a small salad for Simon. Harper was talking with Blank on a few boxes in one corner, and Simon, Anna, and Duncan sat in the corner opposite from them. Anna looked like she was thinking. She had been staring at Duncan until Simon snapped his fingers. "Earth to Annabelle." Simon said. Anna looked at Simon. "I said don't call me that!" she mumbled. She glanced at Duncan once more, before going to another corner and lying down. Simon looked at Duncan. "She's probably just trying to see what to make of you. Its not everyday another kid comes along." Duncan nodded, thinking. Simon yawned, and looked at Blank and Harper. "Night, Harp. Night, Blank." Simon sat against the wall next to Duncan, and closed his eyes. Anna was snoring softly. Duncan smiled. In the morning, they would find June, and then they could find a way out. Duncan fell asleep in a few minutes, but he didn't like what he saw.
