Chapter 2: Help Wanted

The day was Sunday. It has been two days since Jaune was kicked out of Beacon Academy. In those two days, he rented an apartment with Ozpin's last help. He gave Jaune some money before he left the academy. The apartment in Vale was a normal apartment, but small. To Jaune, it was better with a kitchen, a living room where he can eat while watching TV. A bedroom with one small bed, and a bathroom near the balcony.

Jaune: I guess... this is home...

Jaune, also lost some of his emotions like being happy and sad. All he felt was nothing, but a void in his heart.

Jaune: I have to find a job, but where? I'll prove to them that I can make money without being a Huntsman.

He stands up and goes out to find a job.

30 minutes later, Jaune walked around and tried finding a job, but no jobs were available. He tried to apply for being a janitor, a salesman, a craftsman, etc. However, all slots were full and Jaune was left hopeless.

He slumped down with his back against the wall, feeling defeated.

Jaune: Damn it. Why can't I find a decent job to help me with my own life? Just why? Ugh!

He hugs his legs as he sulks.

Jaune: What can I do? I can't make money at this point. I just wish that there is one job that I can take no matter how dangerous it can be. After all, I'm a man, so...

Jaune then he sees a help wanted ad on a newspaper.

Jaune: What the?

He grabs a newspaper and saw an ad with a picture of a robot that resembles a bear. The newspaper ad says:

Freddy Fazbear's Pizzaria: Help Wanted!

Family Friendly restaurant wants to hire you to become a night guard to watch the pizzaria from 12 AM to 6 AM from Mondays to Fridays.

Come and be a part of the Fazbear Family.

100 lien a week.

Jaune: Freddy Fazbear's Pizzaria? I've never heard of this. Might as well apply for it. I just have to know where the heck this place is.

Timeskip

20 minutes later, Jaune arrived at the location. The facade of the building had two glass doors with a window that was built to re-enforce robberies from robbing the pizzaria. The walls were bricked and at the top said "Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. Where Fantasy and Fun come to Life!" There, there was a logo of the animatronic bear from the newspaper. It was brown with a black bowtie and a black tophat. It was holding a microphone while waving with an uncanny smile to it. There were also lightbulbs around the title.

Jaune: Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. I guess this is the place.

Jaune enters the lounge and the floors were black and white tiles the reflects the ceiling with six lights that are on. There was a desk with a lady doing her work.

Jaune approaches the woman.

Jaune: Umm... excuse me, Ma'am.

The woman stops her work and looks at Jaune.

Employee: Oh! Hello, there. What can I help you with, sir?

Jaune: Hi. My name is Jaune and I want to apply as a security guard here at this establishment.

Employee: I see. Well, you're just in time since we were gonna take that down. Would you like a tour of this place?

Jaune: I guess. I mean, I have to know about this place more.

Employee: Very well. Anyways, follow my lead.

The woman walks from her desk with Jaune following her. They enter a big dinning room and it was massive. There were janitors cleaning the wet floors.

The floors this time were color blue and red. There were 6 tables covered in tablecloths decorated with confetti patterns. In the middle of tables, there were different types of colorful party hats. The chairs also boast confetti patterns, and there are a large gold star on the backrest of each one. There were also arcade machines like Remnant the Game (not the board version), Freddy's sing along, etc.

Employee: This is the dining area. It's massive, isn't it.

Jaune: Yeah. Some arcade games look good. The walls are also filled with posters and drawings.

Employee: Yes. Kids draw and stick their drawings on the walls.

Jaune: I see. Anyways, let's move on.

Employee: Very well.

They continue on when Jaune saw the stage and the main attraction.

A/N: Yes, we are going to be using the movie models for this story.

Jaune: Whoa. Nice animals you've got.

The Employee stops and looks at the animatronics on stage as well. On top. Unlike the other two animatronics, it lacks any eyebrows.

On the left side is a blue bunny rabbit with a white muzzle, belly, and the center of its ears. It has a red fabric bowtie on its chest. It red pupils. Its instrument of choice is a guitar being red and black in color. Its teeth are rounded at the bottom jaw and not teeth on top.

On the left is a yellow chicken. It has three top feathers on its head and has magenta pupils. Unlike the bunny rabbit, it had eyebrows. It has an orange beak with square-looking teeth on its bottom beak. It wears a bib saying "LET'S EAT!!!" with confettis on the bib too. Its lower legs are also orange along with the feet. It has two sets of toes with white painted toe nails. It is carrying a cupcake with a hotpink head and its lower portion is brown. What is strange is that the cupcake has teeth and big yellow eyes. It also has a candle on top of it.

Lastly is a brown bear. Its muzzle and belly along with the center of its ears are in a light shade of brown. Just like the chicken, it has eyebrows as well with freckles on its muzzle. It has a black bowtie on its chest and a black tophat on top of its head. Its instrument of choice is a microphone. Just like the chicken, it has human-like teeth on its lower jaw.

Behind the three robots is a bricked wall with clouds in the background as well. There are speakers on the side and lights on top of the stage as well to show the animatronics.

Employee: Ah. Those guys are out main attraction. Anyways, the blue bunny rabbit is Bonnie. He is the guitarist of the band. The next one on the right is Chica. She's the backup singer and serves the children pizza. On the center is Freddy Fazbear, the star of this establishment and the main singer of the Fazbear Gang. Lastly is Foxy, but he's out of order at the moment.

Jaune: I see. They look... uncanny to be honest.

Employee: Yeah. We get that a lot from people. But they're friendly towards the children.

Jaune: I see.

Employee: Fancy, aren't they?

Jaune: Yeah. Anyway, how many employees get to work here?

Employee: Not much these days. We can't afford to hire new employees all the time.

Jaune: How come?

Employee: Let's just say that they don't like it here since they've been feeling weird about this place. For some reason, our previous night guard went missing, but we can presume that he quit the job.

Jaune: (nods) Right. Anyways, aren't you gonna show me around more?

Employee: Oh! Sorry about that. Let's continue on, shall we?

Timeskip

10 minutes later, the tour was already done and they were back at the dining area.

Employee: Well? What do you think?

Jaune: Well... it doesn't sound that bad. Being a night guard is a piece of cake.

Employee: Right. Just make sure you don't let anyone break in or steal the animatronics. You just need to keep your eyes on the monitor, okay? Can you do it?

Jaune: Well... yeah. It's better than being a Huntsman.

Employee: Why? Do you despise on being a Hunstman?

Jaune: It's...complicated.

Employee: I see. Anyway, I'm Jessica.

Jaune: Nice name. I'm Jaune.

Jessica: It's a pleasure to meet you Jaune. Anyway, your shift starts at 12am and reminder keep a close eye on the monitor and don't let anyone break in.

Jaune: You already told me that. When do I start?

Jessica: Tomorrow night. Be at the pizzaria tomorrow at 6PM and get you dressed for your uniform.

Jaune: Right.

Jessica: Anyway, see you tomorrow.

Jaune: Okay.

Timeskip

The time is 6PM on Sunday. Jaune arrives at home and sits down on his bed.

Jaune: Man. Getting hired at a pizzaria is better than nothing. I guess I can make a few phone calls.

Jaune stands up and contacts his sister Saphron. Sadly, she did not answer the phone and puts the phone down.

Jaune: Great. I guess she's busy with Adrian and Terra. Might as well watch some TV.

Timeskip

After a whole day from applying at Freddy's and watching TV, Jaune decides to cook dinner. He only had soup and chips to eat and water. He sat on his couch and watched TV again.

Jaune's Mind: Man. I never imagined that I would be working at a kids' restaurant tomorrow night. It's gonna drain my energy more, but no matter how low the pay is, I can use it for my daily life now since those damn teammates of mine will never appreciate me.

He sips from his soup.

Jaune: I just hope nothing ruins this moment.

Jaune continues to eat and watch TV at the same time. He was watching a TV program called Freddy and Friends. He enjoyed it and fell asleep while watching it.

Back in Beacon, Ozpin is currently sitting on his chair in his office checking Jaune's status. He looks at the his current job at Freddy's. Deep down, Jaune is in so much trouble of what he signed up for.

Ozpin: You are in so much trouble, Mr. Arc. I hope you survive your first night tomorrow.
