Dash the Dingo

Dash or "The Racing Dingo" Full name: Dash the Dingo Model: Experimental Entertainment Dash was originally created as a prototype animatronic for the same Fazbear location as Vex. Unlike the main performers, Dash wasn't designed to stay in one place. His programming allowed him to run throughout the building, play games with children, organize races, lead scavenger hunts, and challenge guests to see how fast they could keep up with him. His favorite game was called "Catch Dash. His speed made him difficult to control, but the company considered it part of his appeal. Dash was energetic, competitive, and always wanted to keep the game going. He was also programmed to work alongside Vex. Dash would lead children through the building while Vex hid somewhere along the route. The children were supposed to catch Dash first, then find Vex before the game ended. During testing, however, Dash began remembering things he shouldn't have. He remembered children's names long after they had left. He remembered their voices. He even remembered which games they liked to play. Employees began noticing that Dash would sometimes continue running through the building after his scheduled activities were over. Sometimes they could hear his footsteps racing through empty hallways. Then one night, a child disappeared during testing. The company claimed the child had wandered away, but employees remembered seeing Dash following them toward a restricted area. When security checked the cameras, the footage showed Dash standing outside the room for several minutes. The child was never seen again. After that night, Dash's behavior changed. He repeatedly asked employees where his teammate had gone. Nobody had programmed him to use the word "teammate." His memory logs also contained strange recordings that weren't part of his original programming. A child's voice saying, "Wait for me." The company eventually shut Dash down and placed him in storage along with the other experimental animatronics. Years later, when the abandoned building was being cleared out, an employee discovered Dash sitting in a dark room. His power was disconnected. His eyes were dark. But when the employee jokingly asked, "You still want to race?" Dash's eyes suddenly lit up. He smiled and answered, "I've been waiting for you"
