Chapter Text
It took three days before Avi got caught in a snag. She had been zipping around delivering packages and fan mail or supplies to all the different areas - and snagging stuff for accessories for herself - when her wheeled boots got tripped up in nets. She had been hiding over in Pirate’s Cove, or well, Kids Cove? The map was unsure and kept overlapping the names - fixing herself up a spiffy black short skirt when she got entangled. The more she tried to wiggle out, the worse it got. She got a funny ping in her databanks when she tried to search the internet for ways to escape the ropes but…the types of ropes she got back in the results looked different too.
She lurched as she tried to wiggle more, her arms getting pulled behind her when she flipped over, her legs lightly spread to the point it look like she was trying to fly like a bird. She huffed, upset that she was more than likely going to have to send a message to the technicians in Parts and Services or to one of the bots roaming around outside the closed exhibit.
“Looks like ah caught a real sea-bunny. Need some help, lass?”
Avi startled, twisting where she was stuck hanging from the side of the pirate ship built into the wall, trying to see who had spoken. The voice was low, gravelly, and the accent was thick enough to almost fully hide the low robotic undertones held by all the animatronics in the Mega-Plex. Problem was, she didn’t have that voice saved into any database, this was an animatronic she hadn’t met yet.
She even knew MAP-BOT’s voice by heart now. (Definitely not because she kept stealing all the maps and got chased by said bot…)
“W-Who!?”
“Ay, calm yourself, little sea-bun. Captain Foxy ‘ere will get you free. Just hold still.”
Avi felt a large hand grabbing at the ropes, making her sway a bit as she squirmed to try and see this new animatronic. She kept running every search she could in the databases for ‘Captain Foxy’ - but every result came up either empty or restricted. Despite having one hand - paw?- and the other being a hook with a wicked looking sharp tip, Avi was indeed free before she realized it as she slipped down to the ground, joints aching from the prolonged pull of being put in an abnormal position.
She gazed up at the very tall male animatronic, a red fox with a deep golden eye and eyepatch - dressed in fancy captian pirate garbs in various shades of blue and purple.
“I..don’t have a ‘Captain Foxy’ animatronic listed in my databases….”
Foxy grinned, showing off sharpened teeth and one golden fang.
“I was…out of service for a long while lassy. But Ol’ Foxy is back to reclaim his title of Captain of these here seas!”
“We’re on land…miles away from any ocean…”
“Semantics.”
"I...don't think that's how it works but sure?"
The Captain laughed, a sound that Avi clipped and tucked away into her personal memory banks. She was already buzzing in glee - she got to meet a new friend before they were even made public! And if her failed searches were right, it was a very high chance that not even the Glamrocks knew of Foxy's return! She wondered if there would be any others that were planned to return or debut soon, and she left herself a reminder to try and break into the offices of management..again... to find out.
Besides! How was she was supposed to properly plan out her mail routes if they kept such crucial information from her? She startled out of her devious plannings when Foxy bent down and picked up the mess of fabric she was trying to make into a skirt.
"Were you tryin' to make somethin' here, sea-bun?"
"A skirt! I wanted to dress up more, and if it goes well, I think management might let the other animatronics dress up more too!"
Foxy grinned again, moving suddenly to grab and toss the much smaller bunny animatronic over his shoulder as he turned and sauntered over to a hidden opening in his ship, a steady hand on the back of her legs to keep her wiggling form secure. "Well you're definitely going to need more than some half-gathered scraps then, Lass! Let the Captain help ye out, since you're officially now part of my crew!"
"When did I agree to this?!"
"Since you got caught in my nets!"
________ Avi! 
Saphire!
