Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach[]
11:30 PM - 12:00 AM[]
Following Glamrock Freddy mysteriously glitching out during the group's usual show at Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex, he, Roxanne, and their two fellow animatronics - Glamrock Chica and Montgomery Gator - were sent back to their green rooms at Rockstar Row for the night as the Pizzaplex prepared to close. What Roxanne was unaware of, though, was that a young boy named Gregory stowed away into Freddy's chest compartment that the bear found out about after he rebooted. To get Freddy out of his room, Gregory climbed through the vents behind Rockstar Row, during which he had his first good look at Roxy as she vainly complimented herself in the mirror. Eventually, Roxy received word from the Pizzaplex's head security guard - Vanessa - about Gregory being in the Pizzaplex and ordered to capture him. She first catches sight of Gregory while he's running from Monty in the service tunnels, but isn't able to join in the chase as she's trapped behind a chain-link fence.
12:00 AM - 1:00 AM[]
With the Pizzaplex on lockdown, Roxy joined Monty and Chica in the hunt for Gregory, unaware that Freddy was helping him along the way. She first got a chance to get Gregory when the Daycare Attendant alerted her, Chica, and Monty about his presence after kicking him out of the Daycare. Before she can get to Gregory, he renders himself invisible to her by hiding inside a just-arrived Freddy's chest compartment. Roxy tries to lure Gregory out by alternating between asking if she's his favorite and taunting him about his supposed lack of friends. These don't work as Gregory and Freddy escape the Daycare area with Roxy and the others none the wiser.
1:00 AM - 2:00 AM[]
For the hour, Roxy patrols the East Arcade for Gregory. Should Gregory attempt to reach the fire escape in the third floor's Prize Corner as a means of escape, he has to navigate the Arcade to avoid Roxy getting him. Upon reaching the arcade's security office, Gregory accidentally triggers its lockdown procedure which also alerts Roxy - as well as Monty - to his whereabouts. Gregory manages to evade Roxy using the office's security doors until Freddy - from his end - disables the lockdown to allow the child to escape. Roxy manages to find Gregory at the fire escape - having just discovered he can't open it - forcing the child to escape to the Prize Corner's elevator, only to get caught by Vanessa.
2:00 AM - 3:00 AM[]
After Gregory escapes the Lost and Found office, Roxy resumes the hunt for him by patrolling one of the docking areas. Gregory ends up needing to go through that docking area - and avoid Roxy along the way - to reach the main stage controls so he can help a quickly-depowering Freddy get fixed. Upon reaching the stage control room, Gregory's presence is alerted to Roxy and Monty when he attempts to use the security console in it. Using the electric deterrents built into the doors, Gregory stops the two from entering the control room until Freddy gets him out of the room and into the Main Atrium. Roxy ends up heading to the Main Atrium along with Monty and Chica - plus Vanessa's killer alter ego, Vanny - in another attempt to catch Gregory, an attempt that fails as Gregory and Freddy descend to Parts and Services via the Main Stage's lift.
3:00 AM - 4:00 AM[]
After rescuing Freddy from Parts and Service and discussing with the bear ways to help him survive the rest of the night, Gregory finds the blueprints for the special upgrades within the other Glamrock Animatronics - including Roxy's eyes - and suggests obtaining them to upgrade Freddy. When Freddy shows reluctance to go through with harming his friends, Gregory points out that all they've been doing was hunting him and muttering that they get what they deserve. The two eventually leave Parts and Service through the elevator leading to Roxy's green room. Approaching the green room, Gregory hears Roxy profusely crying about her repeated failures at catching the child and trying to reassure herself that she's not a loser. Roxy breaks out of this depression when Freddy - with Gregory inside - enters and she tells him to leave, which the bear complies with.
5:00 AM - 6:00 AM[]
Having critically damaged either Chica or Monty and took their upgrades for Freddy, Gregory plans to do the same to Roxy. After getting Freddy's help in repairing a S.T.A.F.F. Bot, Gregory enters Roxy's titular Raceway and begins driving on the track to lure her in. The trap works as Roxy lands in the middle of the track just as Gregory comes around a corner. With Roxy up ahead, Gregory jumps out of the go-kart he's driving, forcing it to crash right into Roxy and send her into the lower levels with critical damage. Taking the opportunity while the wolf's seemingly deactivated, Gregory heads down to Roxy's mangled body and takes her eyes. As Gregory makes his exit, however, a now-eyeless Roxy reactivates and attempts to pounce on him, forcing him to run from her through the furnaces under the Raceway. Gregory eventually escapes Roxy and upgrades Freddy with her eyes - while also lying that she was in an accident to Freddy - just as the Pizzaplex's lockdown finally lifts.
Burntrap Ending[]
Should Gregory and Freddy decide to solve the mystery of the recent child disappearances, they find themselves in the burned out ruins of an older Pizzeria - Freddy Fazbear's Pizza Place. The mangled Roxy - alongside her likewise mangled bandmates Chica and Monty - are called down into the ruins by Burntrap (William Afton's resurrected corpse) to stop Gregory as he tries to control Freddy. Being too strong to be contained via the security doors, Roxy is the only one able to enter the room Gregory and Freddy are in to try and get the child. Gregory is forced to hide from Roxy as she stalks the room for him while Burntrap continues to try and control Freddy. Gregory eventually manages to drive Roxy away by having Freddy use Chica's upgrade - her voice box - make the wolf go away.

Fanon[]
Roxegory is a relatively popular ship in the Five Nights at Freddy's fandom. Following the release of Security Breach, Roxy quickly became a popular character among the fandom. Specifically, fans wanted to see a scenario where Roxy was Gregory’s guardian instead of Freddy. From this, they started to devise their own headcanons and what-if stories depicting this situation. This resulted in the ship gaining popularity, with many different depictions of it to varying degrees.
Roxegory is arguably the most popular friendship in the Security Breach fandom, rivalled only by Glamrock Fregory. However, rather than antagonizing said ship, it is often paired up with it. This in turn has led to an increase in popularity of the Glamrock Fredxy ship, with most fans who support one of the other often treating Freddy and Roxy as Gregory’s parental figures. This has allowed both ships to overlap into being a family ship, even though it doesn’t strictly count as one. Depictions of this pairing as a het ship are not as common.
Fan content for this friendship is incredibly easy to come by, especially when depicted as a family ship. There are numerous videos, fanarts and fan-fictions which portray the pairing in this way. On Archive of Our Own, over 70 fan-fictions tagged for this pairing were available within the first three months of the game’s release. In the same time frame on DeviantArt, though no tag existed, a direct search of 'roxanne wolf and gregory' would return over 200 results. Undoubtedly however, the most often form of representation for this friendship is videography, whether it be from animators such as TwoDev-Sensei on YouTube or roleplayers such as Nuoance on TikTok.
