Author's Notes: Thank you to all who reviewed my fic.
Smallvillegirl2: Tucker is at summer camp, I might do a scene where Tucker gets attacked by Freddy. I will remember that, thank you for your help.
Shiny-Sama: I would never kill Lancer, he's too awesome to be killed. Besides, you'll need that whip to beat up the Nazis in my next fic.
Miriam1: true, better late than never, but everything happened so suddenly. Well, I said I borrowed the idea of not knowing anything from Dante. I'm too much of a Lancer fan to kill him off and you're right it's bad that Freddy can get creative now. Glad you liked the scene with Sam and thank you for helping me with it.
Chapter VII: Virtual Unreality
Danny
"Where are going Chronos?" I asked my guide as the boat came off and I looked at my reflection in the crystal waters.
"We are going to see my mistress," he said calmly as he plied the waters. "you must be thirsty, why don't you have a drink," he told me as I bent over and cupped my hands.
The water was sweet and pleasing to my tongue but as I drank it I began to feel strange, "I remember now what happened? I was attacked by…," I began to say as an unsettling thought came over me, "am I dead?" I asked him nervously.
"You're in transit, my boy," Chronos said remorsefully as I drank more water. Everything was coming back to me but I could only remember the good things I knew there were bad things that I have done (I remember once serving some guy with pale skin dressed in black and something about killing my family and friends) but other than that it was a blur.
I was going to ask Chronos about this but like his sibling he beat me to the chase, "This the Eunoe River, Eunoe is Greek for 'Good Memories' Judgment is not about looking at the bad you've done but the good, " he said as the boat stopped in front of an elaborate Greek temple.
Freddy
"Soon, very soon," I said looking at a picture of the ghost girl, soon I will be free of Hell forever and will invade the dreams of children without end.
While I was thinking Nocturne came in with his sleepwalkers, "Have you attacked the family yet, Krueger," he asked me as I laughed.
"I was just planning that now, I wanted this to special," I said laughing as I sharpened my claws.
"Do not fail me Krueger," he said as he glared at me and I bowed thinking of I will make him wish he never heard of me once I capture the ghost girl.
Clockwork
"Very good, Danielle," I told the young ghost girl as I watched her train, soon she will be ready to face off with Krueger and she will need every ounce of her strength and courage to fight this foe. She willl face her very fears and the despairing fires of Perdition.
I almost hated to send her out against this demon but she was the chosen for this task and somethings are set in stone.
"You said earlier there was something you wanted to tell me," Nancy said floating up to me as I made sure that Danielle was out of range.
"Yes, remember I said she was different from you and others who had received the gift?" I asked her as she nodded. "Well, I think you should know why," I said as I told her of the prophecy surrounding Danielle.
Legend states that if one who wields the gift and walks the lines of life and death with ease is thrown into the fires of Krueger's punishment then Krueger would be released from his 'Hell' (What few know is Krueger is not in the Christian Netherregions but imprisoned on a far off island of the Ghost Zone, so remote that even if the all knowing Infi-Map doesn't it list it).
"You mean if Krueger wins, he could be free to roam the real world as easily as he roams as the dream realm?" she asks me as I nod slowly.
"That is why you must guard her on this mission," I told her as she nodded and promised she would do so. Soon Danielle you must plunge into the world of monsters and darkness and fight the demons within you!
Speed Racer
I watched as Sam stood watch over her beloved Danny. I can only the imagine the pain she must be enduring to see him like this living with the aide of machines.
I decided that I need to stretch my legs, so I went down to the lobby to relax. I sat down on an empty sofa and soon felt my eyes close.
Once again I found myself in that mysterious boiler room again, "Why don't you show yourself instead of hiding!" I shouted knowing whatever attacked me before must be lurking around.
"It's your funeral," a voice said as I looked in shocked as my father came out of the shadows, "You want to know why I left Speed?" he asked as he glared at me from behind the visor on his helmet.
"What are you talking about?" I asked him confused about what he meant, he left to protect the secrets of the Mach 6's design," I told him as he shook his head.
"No, I left because I was ashamed of your Speed, now I am going flatten you like a…," he said before he was blasted to the ground.
"Guess again," I heard Danielle's voice shout as she appeared, "I'm sending you away permantly," she said as my father's hand became like talons and went to slash her but I pushed her out of the way but it cost me.
The claws dug into my leg, "AHHHH!" I screamed in pain as I fell back into darkness.
"AHHH!" I gasped as I awoke in the lobby, "What was that about?" I asked as I felt a pain in my leg and saw blood from it, "I need a doctor here," I yelled to the nurse at the desk as I taken to the ER for treatment.
Sam
"Sam, why don't you go home and rest you'll need it," Mr. Fenton said as I shook my head, I was not going to leave me Danny.
"We'll call your parents to let them know you're staying with us," Mrs. Fenton said as she left to tell my folks that I was all right.
I turned my attention back to Danny, he looked so peaceful laying there, but that was an illusion. I could sense the suffering that he was enduring behind those closed blue eyes of his.
My heart ached for him, I wish I could make it better but that was beyond my power perhaps even that of omniscient Clockwork who sees everything from his lofty tower.
"Please wake up Danny," I said as I gently stroked his black hair, I hated to see him like this attatched to all those machines beeping and whirring he was so helpless, a far cry from the Danny that I knew. The Danny that fought against the Ghost King and even his own evil self only to come back stronger.
I could feel my eyes close but for some reason I was still in the hospital room. I looked at the TV, some classical music concert was on but soon a new image appeared; a man with a burnt face wearing a red and green sweater with a brown hat.
"WHY ARE YOU JUST SITTING THERE LISTENING TO THIS SNOOZEFEST WHEN YOU COULD WIN A CHANCE TO SING ALONG SIDE DUMPTY HUMPTY!" the man said as a number flashed on the screen and dialed it. The lights began to flicker and instead of a hospital I found myself in a appeared to be a videogame.
Freddy
"it took me forever, but I finally got a Wii," I said turning on the game system and putting a disk in, "the angry Goth video game , I heard gamespot gave it a 10 out of 10," I said as I picked up the Wiimote and started playing.
I watched with glee as I watched the girl battle with her foes, cheerleaders, "hmmm, this game is missing something," I said smiling as I pressed a button, "Death mode activated," a voice said as I laughed, "game over, girlie," I said as I pressed a button but a message popped. "Garougal34 has joined the game?" I said as that ghost girl appeared on the screen.
"You got one thing right Krueger, the game is over for you!" she said as I growled at her.
"You play Freddy, you play with fire," I said, this gal is going down!
