Nightmare

Chapter 4: Nightmare returns

The doors swung wide open and Harmony walked though the door, with a smile crossing her face. Hamtaro and Bijou following her then Spat, Howdy, Oxnard, Stan, and Cappy. Boss was sitting high in a chair; he looked over at them with a pleasant expression on his face.

"Hey everyone, how was your jog?" Boss said walking over, "I would have come if someone told me." He then noticed Spat and kindly said, "And who's this?"

"You mean you don't recognize him?" Hamtaro said surprised.

"I'm Sp-" Spat started to say, but Hamtaro covered his mouth before he said anything.

"His name is a…" Hamtaro started, but his voice trailed off.

"Oreo," Harmony finished.

"Oreo?" the others echoed. "Oh right, Oreo."

OREO! A cookie! Your going to name me after a-" Spat started but Hamtaro covered his mouth again.

"He's a tad on the eccentric side," Howdy said quickly.

"Well welcome to the clubhouse Oreo," Boss said patting Spat on the shoulder. "My home is your home."

"Um…thanks," Spat said trying to crack a smile, he ended up cracking an awkward looking grin. Then he looked at the others and whispered, "If I ever get my stuff back, your all on the top of my list!"

"You're welcome," Harmony said with a smile.

"Gee, what a pleasant fellow to talk to," Stan said sarcastically.

"Give him sometime," Harmony said turning to them.

"Harmony, he's a lost cause," Howdy said with Stan nodding. "You can get as much good out of him as you can get milk from rock!"

"No, it's not true," Harmony said, "There is good in everyone, even Spat."

"What are you guys talking about?" Sandy said walking over.

"Um…nothing," they all said at the same time.

Spat walked over to the table and was looking around the clubhouse, "This place is bigger than I thought it'd be." He looked at Snoozer who was sleeping on the table. "Hey, hey, hello! It's rude to sit on the table! Hello!"

"Don't even try," Boss said, "He never wakes up, Oreo, his name's Snoozer."

"Oddly appropriate name," Spat said looking at him. He sat at the table and wondered what to do with himself.

Harmony walked over to him, "You'll stay here till we work out a plan."

"No one tells me where to stay," Spat grumbled.

"Look, I know it's quite an adjustment," Harmony said with a smile, "But maybe you'll learn to like it."

Spat just looked at her, why was she being so nice? He looked away defiantly, "If you're trying to save my soul or something it's not working."

"Well maybe-" Harmony started, but she was interrupted by Maxwell running in yelling.

"pant Outsidepant hamster pant town pant trouble pant" Maxwell panted falling down as soon as he entered.

Sandy was the first to his side, "Maxwell! Maxwell, are you alright?"

"Yeah, but a hamster is terrorizing Fun Land! He's dressed in a devil costume…" Maxwell panted.

"Spat?" Boss said suddenly, "That evil rat with wings is back?"

Spat almost jumped at Boss, but Harmony grabbed his shoulders and made him stay still. So instead he just growled angrily.

"No, no someone else!" Maxwell said out of breath.

"Nightmare," Spat growled to Harmony.

"We've got to get there," Harmony said with the utmost importance.

Hamtaro shouted out, "Come on Ham-hams we've got to stop him!" He led them all out to Fun land.

When they arrived…..

Spat was the first to run into the gates and look at the scene, there flying in the sky was Nightmare wearing Spat's costume. Spat growled angrily to himself, Nightmare was flying around zapping everyone passing by. Hamsters went flying the ground hit by the blasts exploded with bounds of energy. Everyone was running around screaming and crying. Nightmare eyed a little baby hamster cowering behind the trash can.

"Say goodbye, little fella," Nightmare said evilly chuckling.

"No," Spat said something strange rising inside him. He clenched his fists as the pitchfork was charging up. Then without another thought he leapt at the boy and pushed him away from the beam. The two of them, rolled across the ground away from the blast as it demolished the brick path.

"My baby," A mother hamster yelled calling to the baby hamster.

Spat let him go, "Get out of here, now!" The baby ran away to his mother crying hysterically. Spat looked at Nightmare glaring, "You're misusing that power!"

Hamtaro and the others arrived just then, and Harmony gasped at the evil hamster. They stared at him shocked for so long. Nightmare saw Harmony and smiled evilly and with an evil chuckle he swooped down and grabbed Harmony.

"Let me go!" Harmony screamed trying to reach her wand, "Let me go! Help!"

"Let her go!" yelled Boss.

"No can do!" Nightmare growled, "If I get rid of Harmony then I'll have no one to rise up against me, Mah! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

Boss leapt at Nightmare with all his might to come to Harmony's rescue. Harmony looked at him her eyes twinkling, "My hero!" Then Boss fell flat on his face, Harmony sighed, "My hero?"

"LET HER GO!" Spat hissed climbing up a pole and flinged himself at Nightmare knocking the two out of the sky. Spat and Nightmare rolled on the ground scratching and biting.

Hamtaro ran over to Harmony, "Are you alright?"

"I'm okay now," Harmony said looking at Spat. "Should we help?"

"I don't know," Hamtaro said quietly.

"Ham-hams hurry while he's distracted, help the others!" Boss commanded, and the other Ham-hams ran off to help the other hamsters in Fun Land.

"I grow tired of this fight," Nightmare growled throwing Spat off him, "You are no challenge to me, anymore." He pointed the pitchfork at Spat letting it charge to unleash a blast of energy. "How fitting, your death will be at the hands of your own weapon!"

Harmony waved her wand and shot a beam of stars at Nightmare knocking him over. Then she ran to Spat's side, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, and I don't need your help," Spat growled.

"You don't need help with what? Getting your butt kicked? Cause you've got that covered pretty well," Stan said with a chuckle, And then he ran off when Spat glared at him.

Nightmare rose again and glared down Harmony and Spat. Harmony pulled herself close to Spat as if to protect him. Nightmare aimed his pitchfork at them and it glowed brightly. Spat's eyes grew wide, and his heart thumping so hard it could have broken out of his chest. "Well, lookie at this a two for one deal! MAH! HA! HA! HA! Now I'll finish you off, once and for all!"
