Isiah: What up! Isiah and Tom here!

Tom: What's up everyone.

Isiah: And welcome to Avalor's Continued Nightmare! Finally, the sequel to Beginning Nightmare is here!

Tom: Feels like only a few months ago we just finished Beginning Nightmare.

Isiah: Right, and now look. We got Avalor's Continued Nightmare up and running.

Tom: Yeah. We were gonna put another Mateo/Elena love story but somebody had the nerve to change his plans. *looks at Isiah*

Isiah: Bro, we just finished Ready for Round 2 a little while ago.

Tom: Yeah, I suppose your right.

Isiah: Now enough about Mateo/Elena. Let's cross that bridge when we get to it.

Tom: Okay then. Let's get started with Avalor's Continued Nightmare.

Mateo's POV

I was in my house having dinner with my mom and sister. I usually did most of the talking during this time but for some reason, I didn't do as much talking. I just paid attention to the window in the living room and eventually saw a figure standing outside it. I got up to take a look but it disappeared too quickly.

My sister Marlena got up and asked me, "Mateo are you okay?"

"Yeah. I'm alright," I answered taking a deep breath.

"Was there somebody outside," my mother Rafa asked going to the living room window. As she took a look, I heard a voice behind me almost as if it were in the same room with me and my family.

"Who's up for round 2?"

I jumped and looked behind me but there was nobody there. My mother noticed me looking jumping and asked, "Mateo, honey, are you sure you're okay?"

I took another deep breath and said, "Yes. I'm probably just tired from working too hard."

"That's more than likely true," my mom said holding the sides of my face and planting a soft kiss on my forehead. "Ever since you helped Princess Elena kill that Nightmare demon of hers, you've taken your job as royal wizard more serious than you should."

"I know. It's just, what if something else like that happens again," I asked. "What if there's a spirit demon of someone else I'm close to, like you guys?" My mom looked more worried and it caught my attention. I calmed her down and said, "I'm sorry I'm overreacting about this too much."

"It's okay, sweetie," my mom said hugging me. "Just get some sleep. You'll feel better by tomorrow."

"Okay," I kissed my mom and told her and Marlena good night before going upstairs to my bedroom.

Encountering a Nightmare

I had a real insane and crazy dream that same night. I was being praised by the kingdom of Avalor for helping Princess Elena defeat Nightmare. Walking down the isle waving to everyone. It all seemed great at first, but something immediately didn't seem right when I entered darkness.

I looked around to see blood splattered all over the ground along with the bodies that it came from. I then got a flashback on the final encounter me and Elena had with Nightmare. The moment that came up, I lifted my shirt to see the wound on my stomach that Nightmare gave me and immediately remembered how it happened.

Nightmare blasted me with her Scepter of Light and used her sharp claws to dig inside my wound. I didn't want to think of me dying and probably becoming one of Nightmare's servants, but the way she dug into my wound was to unbearable for me to take.

The flashback I had about it soon ended and I heard dying voices from the distance. They said things like, "Nightmare gave us to him." And other things like, "Run away before he gets you too." As I kept walking down the dark pathway, I saw a figure looking at one of the dead bodies that were on the ground and was in shock to see who it was when I got closer to it.

It looked just like me, only this version of me was wearing my Dia de los Muertos outfit. He also had a tamborita with blades on the sides of the drum. He looked over at me and I noticed that his eyes were a devilish red. He then let out a smirk and chuckled saying, "I must say. You've caused quite the chaos saving these foolish sinners Mateo. Just like your friend Princess Elena. Though she'll suffer a different consequence."

I looked at him and asked, "What chaos did I cause? And what do you mean, Princess Elena will suffer a different consequence?"

"You aided Shuriki's escape from her fate of hell and helped Princess Elena kill Nightmare," the other version of me said. "Now you two must join the line of sinners and pay for what you've done."

My heart began to pound a thousand times faster and I started to back away slowly from the evil version of me. But he started walking towards me. "It's too late to run Mateo," he said. "You're in my world now. Just like the others."

Not another moment past before he conjured up a spell in which quickly went towards my wounded stomach, causing pressure to run all over it. I began to scream in pain from the dark magic he was bringing to it. I fell onto the ground and held my wound but the pain wouldn't go away. I soon found myself out of my dream and back to my bedroom where I laid on the floor holding my stomach.

I was in too much pain to get up so I didn't even bother trying. I soon looked at my hands to find blood all over them and also on my bed sheet. I kept a good hold on my stomach and shouted for help. It couldn't come at any quicker time as my mom and Marlena raced to my bedroom.

My mom was the first to see blood on my bed sheet and gasped out loud saying, "OH MY GOD, WHAT HAPPENED?!"

Marlena went over to me and saw that the wound on my stomach had blood pouring out slowly. "Mom he's bleeding out of his wound! Let's get him to the doctor NOW!"

"Okay," the two ladies helped me get up and carefully rushed me to the hospital.

As I laid in the hospital bed, I couldn't help but thinking about that evil version of me that I dreamed about. Who was he? And how did he know about my and Elena's confrontation with Nightmare? Could it be that he was...- No. It can't be.

He can't really be the spirit demon version of me, could he?

This whole night was going to be a bitch to let Elena and the others hear about.

To be continued...

Isiah: Ooh, off to a great start on the sequel Tom.

Tom: I know. Mateo encountering another version of him in his dream? Can't wait to see how this goes down.

Isiah: Yeah. But anyway, we hope you guys enjoyed the first chapter. There will be more to this story very soon. If you don't know where this story's going by any chance, go read Avalor's Beginning Nightmare and you'll catch on with that.

Tom: On that note, please don't forget to leave a nice review. No hateful or rude comments please. If you haven't seen our second Mateo/Elena called Ready for Round 2, please check that out. It's hot and steamy. We love you guys. Thanks for supporting us everyday. See y'all later. Holla at your boys! Yeah!

Isiah: As always, until next time.
