Disclaimer: I own nothing. Oh, wait, I own Thomas! No, Freddy owns Thomas....
Well, who cares! I don't own anything important.
14Member and Kirillkirill: Thank you so much for reading and actually reviewing this! You have no clue how much that means to me.
I hope my computer will let me write everything this time. It broke the last time and I wasn't even finished with my chapter. But it was a good ending, so I thought „Aw, well f*** it" and uploaded as soon as I could. Have fun with the new one.
8th of August, late night, unknown Place
Freddy cursed himself for his incautiousness.
What had gotten into him? Everything had been going well until he followed that tart. He could have just gotten rid of that damn Hypnocil and wait for them to fall asleep. But when that bitch had mentioned the object of his revenge, Nancy..... Somhow, he had just stopped desire to see her had suddenly grown so strong, he couldn't withstand it.
Guess it seemed like a good idea at that time, huh? He thought to himself.
He slowly started to calm down. What happened had happened and it would just make things more confusing if he started thinking about the reason.
Damn! None of that would ever have happened if I didn't get that sudden urge to....
8th of August, earlier the same evening, club in Springwood
....Impress her echoed in Freddys errrr Thomas head.
She's talking trash cause she's nervous, and she's nervous cause she likes you! It's all pure logic. Just play Mr. Niceguy for some time and you'll have her all over you!
He didn't know what made him think it was important that Nancy Thompson liked him, after all he knew she hated him for what he had done. And who wouldn't?
Still, he gave her a bright, charming smile.
„Soooo... No dunking, huh? Too bad. Would you drink something with me then?"
Kirsty, who was still standing beside him looked surprised and maybe a little jealous, but then she just said: „Well, I'll just leave you alone for a while then, huh?" None of the two seemed to notice when she was leaving. They were to busy with themselves. Freddy with being nervous and Nancy... well, who knew. Maybe she was still just thinking about where she knew this guy from.
God, I just hope she won't say no or .... Woah, wait, I don't care what she says, and I don't believe in god either! He didn't even know why he was being nervous. He couldn't care less about Nancy or her feelings!
Nancy peered at him a while, but then she shrugged and simply said „Sure, why not?"
A part of Thomas... no, Freddy suddenly felt like singing. But since that would just look stupid, he left it at an even wider grin and said something that sounded like : „Grmphly?"
Nancy raised an eyebrow. „Excuse me?"
Freddy, or Thomas (it depends on the perspective) felt himself blushing. Blushing! Him!
„I... I, uhm m-meant really..." Stuttering??? This couldn't get any worse... Just what was wrong with this body? It couldn't be his fault, right?..... Right?
8th of August, late night, unknown place
To Freddys defense, she had looked gorgeous. She had still been a teen when he had seen her the last time, but now she was a grown up woman. And a pretty one as well. And how was he supposed to think, when his heart (or Thomas heart, actually) had been pounding so loud all the time. Stupid thing. What did you need it for, anyway? All it did was to confuse its owner! He had been fine for years without a heart... or any other sign of humanity, for that matter.
Well, who cares? That bitch and her little friend will be dead soon anyway!
He thought. And he meant it.
Wasn't it about time they fell asleep? One of them would be fine with him as a start...
As long as he could kill someone soon.
Just as he was about to lose his (very small) patience, he heard a familiar sound. The sound of naked feet on the floor of the boilerroom.
Freddy was instanty grinning again.
It's time to get my revenge!
10th of August, Nancys house
„So how do we open it?" Nancy asked. The box was lying between them on her kitchen table.
Nancy had to admit, she really wanted to take it. It was almost as if it wanted her to take it. But Kirsty hadn't let it out of her sight for one second and Nancy couldn't help but think she looked like she wanted to take it even more. Maybe she had been right with what she said. Maybe the box triggered some sort of addiction once someone touched it...
Kirsty seemed very tense whe she answered. „We shouldn't just open it, Nanc... Those Cenobites are more dangerous than you think..." Nancy noticed how hard it was to her friend to keep herself from opening it right away. „We'll really need some arguments if we want to convince them to let us go..."
Nancy wanted to take her hand, or show her she was supporting her some other way, but instead she just said „ Freddy Krueger escaped! Shouldn't that be enough?"
It was the first time Kirsty raised her eyes from the box to look at her.
„I already tried that before... I don't think they'd buy it another time... And even if they do take Freddy with them again.... Well..." She stopped talking.
Nancy didn't want to ask, but her curiousity simply grew to big.
„What?" she asked.
Kirsty shivered. „You probably wouldn't understand.... But their leader.... When he looks at me, he... well, how do I explain it? It's like he's saying Someday... Someday you'll come with us too..."
This time, Nancy took her hand. „ And you're afraid he'll just take you with him by force..."
Kirsty looked so small in the kitchen chair. Small and scared, like a child.
„No..." She whispered „ I'm afraid I might let him..."
8th of August, Club in Springwood
Freddy was surprised how well it went. She was laughing at his jokes, they weren't shouting at each other and she wasn't trying to run away. Still he had the constant feeling she knew who he was. Sometimes, when he was looking away, he could feel her peering at him, as if she was asking herself where she knew him from. But he pushed his worries aside.
„So, is Thomas Monroe your full name?Nothing like, I don't know... Thomas Charles Monroe, or Thomas Frederick Monroe?"That question came out of the blue.
„Yes, it's my full name, my parents don't like middle names. Why do you ask?" He was rather surprised by that question, but he was playing his part pretty well.
„Oh, I just wanna know. Do you have any nicknames then? You know, like Kirsty is always calling me Nanc?"
„Freddy." He hadn't even finished that word when he was already sorry for it. This much about playing his part...
An awkward silence fell upon them.
Then Nancy turned to face him, he knew she had heard him.
„What?" She asked slowly and quietly.
Damn! „Uhm.... Charlie! I said Charlie!"
„That's not what
you said!"
Fuck! „Yes I did! My middle name is
Charles, that's where Charlie comes from."
„You just said you didn't have a middle name."
Shit! Why couldn't I just go for something like Tommy?!
9th of August, early morning, Dreamworld
Kirsty ran as fast as she could. She knew the man chasing her had to be Freddy.
She dashed around a corner and... landed right in his arms. He held her by the wrists, preventing her from escaping tried to break free from him, but he was just to strong. He didn't even seem to care about her attempts to hit him either.
Of course he doesn't... she thought, tears in her eyes. It's his world. He's god here.
„Nancy!" She screamed. Why didn't she wake her up? „Nanc, wake me up,please!"
Freddy just laughed.
„She can't hear you, bitch!" Oh, this was going to be a funny night. He had the girl right where he wanted her. Even if it was the wrong one.
„Let her go, Krueger!"
What the....? Freddy turned around slowly, facing the person who had been shouting at him.
„Nancy..." Kirsty sobbed. Now she understood why Nancy was so afraid of this guy.
Nancy felt so sorry for her friend. She knew just what Kirsty was going through right now.
„She's not who you want, Krueger! I'm the one you hate most of all, remember? You want me? Here I am!" She was hoping he wouldn't just cut Kirsty up before taking care of her. But he seemed to be hypnotised by her just standing there.
Freddy couldn't think. He couldn't move. He hadn't even fully understood what she wanted him to do now. It was like his brain had suddenly been turned into nothing but a dead, useless chunk of flesh. All he wanted to do was stand there and stare at her the rest of the night. Her brown hair with the white streak, her body (he noticed she was wearing her normal clothes, she must have fallen asleep in them), her beautiful face, her eyes...
But the girl he was still holdig up by her wrists seemed to have something against that. Her knee hit him so hard he gasped for air (just as a reflex, he didn't need to breath) and let go of her. She was by Nancys side in a second. And the next moment they were both running from him, they obviously didn't want him to catch them until they woke up.
He cursed loudly (as soon as his brain started working again) and took the chase up.
8th of August, club in Springwood
The look on Nancys face grew more and more horrified as her brain started combining what he had basically said.
„Your name isn't Thomas Monroe at all, isn't it?" She couldn't raise her voice to much more than a whisper.
Freddy gulped. As paranoid as she was when it came to him, she would have him figured out in no time. There was no use denying it, so he just went for telling the truth.
„No." Now Nancy would definitely figure him out. He prepared himself for the screaming.
But help does come from unexpected places sometimes.
9th of August, Dreamworld
When anyone had asked Freddy what he had been thinking when he had just stood there doing nothing, the answer would have been: Nothing!
Or more likely something like: „What do you care, Bitch? Deal with your own fucking problems!" The person asking him would then have to deal with a brand new problem: excessive bleeding and very deep wounds.
But what would the truth have been? The truth was that Freddy didn't know. He didn't know why he just let his chance slip away.
But he did know that he wouldn't just stand there and let that bitch get away a second time! He would get his revenge!
At least that's what he thought when he was chasing the two girls through the boilerroom.
He hadn't expected Nancy to know it so well. She seemed to kow exactly where to turn, entirely different from when she was a teenager. And suddenly, when he was turning around a corner, they were gone.
To say he was surprised would be an understatement. This was supposed to be his realm! Who did this bitch think she was, hiding in his realm? He knew she hadn't woken up yet, he could still feel her presence. Her friend was still asleep, too. But for some reason, he just couldn't make out where they were hiding. It was as if someone was... shielding them. Someone was messing with his dream! That bastards powers weren't as strong as his, whoever it was, but still...
„What is it Krueger? Can't find us? And there I thought this was your world!"
that was Nancys did she think she was doing, provoking him like that in his world?
„Nanc, do you really think it's smart provoking him like that?" Aaaand her friend was there too. Obviously more of a careful person than Nancy. But also very antclimatic.
„Oh, don't be so anticlimatic, Kirsty, with the echo in here, it's not like it's gonna help him find us..." He hated to admit it, but she was right. What the hell did he put that stupid echo in here for anyway?
He growled. „Just you wait, bitch! When I find you, I'm gonna make you wish you were never born!" Hell yeah, I'm gonna cut you up reeeaaal slow. Or even better, torture you to death! Or maybe kill everyone you love first while you have to watch helplessly! Or strip those clothes off of your beautiful body and..... NO, that's definitely NOT..... Or is it?
The second time that day, he felt himself blushing. He wondered how that was even possible with his skin burned as it was.
This whole matter really didn't go into a direction he liked.
It's all gonna be over when I just kill that bitch!
„What's the matter, Krueger? Don't know where to start looking? Why don't you just go back to hell and leave us alone!"
Of course she had no clue about Freddys stay in hell, but just her considering him going back made him furious. And yet again, he acted before thinking.
„There's no way I'm EVER going back there!" He shouted even louder than usual while searching for them the easy way: by tearing every possible hiding place apart.
In his anger he didn't notice he had just given them all the info they needed. He didn't hear the alarm of Nancys watch. He didn't even know they were gone until it was to late.
8th of August, club in Springwood
„Hey Nanc, why the long face?" Kirsty said cheerfully.
Freddy didn't believe in god, but at that moment, he thanked him fiercly.
Nancy stood up. „Nothing." she said, not letting him out of her sight for one second.
„Let's just go! Now!" Kirsty seemed surprised. After all, her friend and Thomas had just been chatting a minute ago. They looked like they were having fun, too.
„But Nanc, why..." Nancy cut her off before she could finish the question. „Now Kirsty! Please!"
It was then that Freddy noticed how desperate she was to get away from him. Somehow, that hurt his pride. It wasn't like he was trying to hurt her! He got up, he wanted to explain. He wanted her to stay. „Wait, I...." Then he was interrupted by someone.
„Hey there, Babe! If I say you have a nice body, would you hold it against mine?"
Nancy froze. Then she turned around real slow.
„Hey there sucker!" She said with a cheery smile.„Piss off!"
Freddy couldn't help but smile. This girl had his respect.
I'm still gonna kill her though... Well, later, anyway...
Nancy turned to walk away. Then the frat boy made the biggest mistake of his life. He tried to hold her back. He grabbed her arm, looking angry. „Who do you think you are?" He was obviously drunk. Freddy felt a sudden anger... no, wrath inside him. It wasn't the anger he usually felt. This anger was much stronger and it was...cold.
„Let her go!" He whispered, but everyone could hear him. He was a god like presence, an angel of revenge. The only one who couldn't sense it was the boy. „Or what?" He hissed pulling Nancy closer to him.
Freddy couldn't take it anymore.
„DON'T YOU TOUCH HER!" He shouted while dashing towards him.
Now the boy noticed what a mistake he had made. He'd be found dead days later. He'd have misteriously gotten killed in his sleep. Nobody messes with Freddy.
While they were fighting, the two girls made their way out.
10th of August, Nancys house
Let him take her? Nancy didn't know what to say. She couldn't understand. So she stared at her friend, trying to cope with what she just heard, until she noticed the teardrops falling on the table.
„Kirsty..." she rushed around the table and put an arm around her friends shoulders.
They sat there that way for some time. Arm in arm. Kirsty sobbing, Nancy holding her, trying to be help her, but being completely helpless at the same time.
Then Nancy finally found the right words.
„Whatever you're going to do, I'm always going to be on your side."
Kirsty nodded, freeing herself from her arms and wiping her tears off.
„Thank you..." she said. Then she smiled taking the box off the table.
„Let's do this!" She said.
Nancy looked at her, worried. „You know, we can always just do it later..."
She didn't want her friend to overdo it.
„Are you kidding? One more night in that boilerroom and I'm gladly gonna let Krueger get me!"
Nancy looked at her, shocked.
„Aw, c'mon, it was a joke. You should laugh more often, Nanc!"
„That's nothing to joke about!" Nancy wasn't mad at her though.
„Now there's only one thing for me to be nervous about..."
Nancy was worried about her friend. She seemed to be really afraid of what she'd have to do, even though she hid it so well most of the time.„What is it, Kirsty?"
Kirsty looked at her with such a nervous look on her face you could think she was getting married in an hour.„What should I say to him?"
Oooookay. That was chapter 3. I must say, I like this chapter, but I've really got a problem with that ending.
I hope you liked it as well as I did. I tried to add a little more romance to it, but alos to make it more serious... I don't know if that worked, but I hope so.
Also, I'm sorry for any mistakes I should have forgotten to correct. I'm not a native speaker after all.
On other news, guess who's gonna be entering the little cast in the next chapter!
That's right, someones new's gonna be in this story. It's not really that hard to guess though.
Oh and if you read this, please, please, please review!
