  • misterwolf Nightmare's minions escape, while the Puppet ends up in another battle with Nightmarionne. Meanwhile, Nightmare, alongside his minions, set out to find the Master Crystal, but Golden Freddy is already at the location and retrieves the relic. The Puppet manages to behead Nightmarionne before warning Golden Freddy via telepathy that if he does not protect the Crystal, Nightmare will destroy every living thing across the world with it. Unwilling to let Nightmare get his hands on the Crystal, Shadow Freddy, having joined Freddy and Chica on their quest, lets himself be incinerated by Nightmare to allow the others to escape.

The group sets out to San Francisco, before a remorseful Nightmare Chica joins them in their fight against Nightmare after learning his true intentions. Bonnie fights his Nightmare counterpart, and is fatally wounded, but persuades him to betray Nightmare before dying in his arms.

  • misterwolf Golden Freddy engages Nightmare in a brutal fight, while the rest of the group finds Nightmare Bonnie, who convinces them to let him help after he tells them Bonnie is dead. Shadow Freddy, who talks to Golden Freddy inside his head, advises him to trust his instincts in order to defeat Nightmare. Golden Freddy fatally impales Nightmare through the abdomen, and tells him that he should not have burrowed into his head, before finishing him off by beheading him.
