## Plot

### Prologue: Retrieve and Repair

A group of movers are seen unpacking various sizes of boxes in a warehouse-like location. One of the movers, Vincent, looks inside one of the boxes despite his co-worker Walter's protest only to see the eye of Glamrock Chica staring at him. Shocked, Vincent quickly closes the box and packs it away. Walter comments how Fazbear Entertainment Inc. was completely responsible for the poor and cheap infrastructure of the Mega Pizzaplex. Wanda, another mover, hurries them to finish due to her fear of animatronics only to be teased by Ash implying the animatronics were possessed before the sink in.

When Vincent and Sam question the topic of the possessed, Walter recaps the history of the company starting off with 1983 including the incidents of the Bite of 83', Elizabeth Afton's death by Circus Baby, and Charlotte Emily's murder. He is quick to talk about the 8 Missing Children in 1985 that possessed the Classic Animatronics. He skips to the incidents of William Afton's death from the springlock suit, Michael's death, and the fire of the Pizza Place's fire. He ominously implies that after Mega Pizzaplex's sink in, Glamrock Freddy is roaming around still infected. This leaves the other movers taken aback before Walter questions the accuracy of the story.

Before leaving, Sam asks the question of who will repair the Glamrocks since animatronics have a history of disliking engineers. After they leave and shut the warehouse door. Dialogue of two people are seen as they plan to repair the Glamrocks.

### Part 1: Discovery

Four months later, a couple are leaving a movie theater in New Harmony, Utah. When they reach their car, they learn that the car's battery died. It is revealed that Gregory, who is still on the run with Glamrock Freddy after the destruction of the Mega Pizzaplex, drained the couple’s car battery in order to charge Glamrock Freddy. Once they park into an alley and charges Freddy, Gregory takes out a newspaper he stole showing Glamrock animatronics on the front page. They learn that the Glamrocks will be back in operation in a place called the Fazbear's Ultimate Pizzaplex in Hurricane. With Glamrock Freddy shaken up by the knowledge his animatronic friends have came back and Gregory concerned about the possibility they are still infected by the glitchtrap virus, the two drive off in the middle of the night to Hurricane.

### Part 2: Security Breach

Hours past until around 12 o’clock, Glamrock Freddy is driving while Gregory is asleep in the back of the van until he reaches the Ultimate Pizzaplex. After waking up Gregory, they go inside the Pizzaplex entering it's main lobby. With a map, they make their way to the new Glamrock location, Glamrock Galaxy. Shortly after they enter, Glamrock Freddy's ears turn to the sound of a security camera lens before the pizzaplex's security alarm goes off. Glamrock Freddy immediately tells a reclutant Gregory to hide and leave the pizzaplex once the alarms stop. Gregory runs off as Glamrock Freddy confronts numerous glowing eyes.

### Part 3: Robot Blitz

Moments before the first attack, the animatronics scan Glamrock Freddy but due to his current state, are unable to recognize him and automatically labels him as an intruder. This activates their "Hometurf" protocol and their primary objective is to eliminate the intruder. Glamrock Freddy goes through a lot of massive damage to him including his back being dented and severely cracked, his right eye getting massively scratched, his lower stomach gets crushed in, his entire left hand and shell of his forearm are torn off, his right ear comes off, his lower mouth is dislocated, and his battery compartment was critically damaged. When it seems like it was over, the animatronics' protocol ended and went back to their normal behavior. Glamrock Freddy utters a few words that catches their attention. He can see in a brief moment that the animatronics the Glamrocks Bonnie, Foxy, Chica, Roxanne, Montgomery, and Cecilia. They go into complete shock over what they just done just as when Glamrock Freddy shuts down due to the damage to his battery. While it happens, Gregory is seen being taken by a dark figure yelling out for Glamrock Freddy.

## Trivia

* While the comic and overall series was primarily written by ENAF’s creators, the original summary and script was reviewed by CosmiisChillin’s boyfriend.
	+ He boyfriend also wrote the fight scene with a background in writing fanmade death battles.
* After a few pages in Security Breach, the comic has a notable shift in art style. Cosmi says that as she kept working and learn how to improve her art, the designs of characters and how she drew the comic changed.
* When Robot Blitz was finished, Cosmi got alot of backlash due to viewers upset about Glamrock Freddy being defeated and Gregory being taken. She was repeatedly harassed by some users both on Discord and Tumblr. When the first page of Part 4: Allies came out, it was clear Gregory was safe and Cosmi made a statement about the backlash and reassured viewers both characters would be okay.
	+ It has become a boundary for Cosmi not to condone harassing her or the co-creator of ENAF after this issue.
