Anne took her seat in first period and stared at the empty desk in front of her, she was the first person to know Terra wouldn't be coming back. Everyone expected someone to be gone, but no one knew who. Fear stricken every night that you would be the next one to die. Happiness every morning when you saw your friends were ok.

Out of the corner of her eyes she could see four boys crowded at the desks slapping down money. "I saw Amber this morning, pay up." One of the boys demanded as he waltz up to them. One of the boys reached into his pocket and handed the other a few dollar bills.

"I haven't seen Ally this morning, maybe she's dead." Another one of them stated flipping his head back with a know it all smile. Anne threw her hands down angrily on the table and stood up, "You're betting on who is dead?" Anne shouted as she stormed over to them. They looked up at her with fear, her eyes filled with anger for them.

No one spoke, they just looked up at her. Finally the one betting on Ally got up the nerve to do something. "Maybe some of these people deserve to die." He commented with a smile that seemed to test her.

"You sick Bastard, people are dieing, and you want to make a quick buck?" He nodded his head, that threw Anne over the edge, she grabbed all the money off the table and rushed over to the window. "I wouldn't mind if you got killed, Mark." And she threw the money out the open window.

Than she froze, he was there, outside alone, watching her. He smiled and laughed, Krueger had just made his point, 'Who do you want to kill?" It rang In her mind, Freddy was going to go to him, and force Anne to murder him in the dream world.

She stared back at him in realization of what she just did, pissed at herself. Suddenly something grabbed the hair in the back of her head. Mark had a hold of her hair with a pissed expression, "You're going to pay me back, Anne." He whispered through clenched teeth.

Anne ripped herself free, and turned around to throw the back of her hand at his face. Successfully she watched her target stumble backwards. Half her first period class watched her as she stood ready to defend herself, while the other 4 boys came to defend mark.

The teacher walked in as soon as the bell rang, and the fight was called off, but Anne watched them. She might hate them but never would she want them to die, especially at the hand of Freddy Krueger.

The middle of class the principle's assistant came in with a note, he wore a dirty red and green sweater. He handed the teacher the note, than winked at Anne who sat alone in the back of class, Terra no longer in front of her. Anne looked away, why did he torment her.

Was he testing her, did he want her to burst out and say something, making her seem crazy? Or was he just reminding her of the demons she hid from everyone else. Whatever he was trying, it was driving her crazy, this was burning her from the inside out.

After he left, the teacher opened the note, considering Terra was missing from class they all suspected it was her. The Teachers face dropped and she covered her eyes with her hands and her curly brown hair fell into her face. Than the class knew.

One of Terra's friends on the other side of the room stood up, "Is it Terra?" Her voice was shaky, full of uncertainty, and her eyes already filling with tears. Everyone knew the answer, but she asked anyway. The teacher nodded her head lightly, and Terra's friend let out a moan before the tears began.

She dove down to the floor and knelt down and began to let the tears flow, without even trying to stop them. Anne looked away with salty tears lining her own eyes, she caused this pain. It was her fault, why didn't she have enough strength to hold off on Krueger?

The class was silent for several moments, till the teacher walked to the door and left. Just like she did every time someone was killed. Terra's friend was still crying, the person who sat behind her was next to her comfortingly. "I'm so sorry Leah." She whispered to the crying girl.

No one else spoke to loudly, several whispers were heard, but Leah was too busy crying to hear them. That's when Mark made his second mistake that day. "How do you think he did it?" He was louder than the other whispers, like he intended for Leah to hear. "Slash her chest like the first one, or stab her like the 3rd?"

"Shut up, do you know how much of a bastard you are?" Anne yelled upon hearing Leah's sobs grow louder as Mark spoke. "Yeah Mark shut up, you're not making things better." The girl comforting Leah stated as she rubbed Leah's back.

"Oh boohoo Lauren. You just don't like the fact you could be next." Mark threw his feet on his desk and leaned back to relax.

"Yeah I don't like that, sorry If I'm afraid that I could die tonight." Lauren hissed back still trying to calm down Leah, Mark made a face over at her. And the rest of the class gave him disapproving looks. He didn't care, he didn't think he was afraid, he would be tonight, if it was the last thing Krueger did.

Anne, finally not able to take the smart ass remark, stood from her chair, and slapped Mark across the face, as hard as she could. Before he had a chance to react, Anne grabbed a chunk of his dirty blond hair, and ripped him out of his seat.

She dragged him over to where Leah was and forced him to face her. "Apologize now." She demanded, but Mark said nothing, again she slapped him. His face followed her hand, and painfully he turned back to face Leah, "Sorry Leah, I didn't mean to upset you."

Anne let go of his hair and gave him a hard shove, he didn't try to fight back, he just took his spot in his seat and rubbed the back of his head. Anne crouched down next to Leah and held open her hands. Leah quickly fell into them, and sobbed harder. "Thank you Anne."
