I'm late, I know. Once again no real reason for it, I just haven't had any energy to write until now. I wrote almost all of this chapter during the last two nights so I was probably half asleep most of that time. I made this a little longer than usual. I hope that makes up even little.

Thank you for the reviews. *hugs everyone who gave them* Keep them coming. :)


Freddy switched places between the basement and the front door. He couldn't wait to be able to sink his blades in Tracy again and again and…

A scream came from inside the building. Don't tell me that bitch..? Wait, that's not Tracy. What the fuck's going on in there?

Freddy tried to find a window from which he could see something but couldn't find one. His curiosity urged him to make sense of the situation. "Argh!" he growled quietly and sliced the wall, careful not to make too much noise.

"Hurry up…"


Urban kept running until she saw a glimpse of a blond girl watching her behind a door. She pretended she stumbled and flew (a bit too hard) on the floor. She remained still, taking shallow breaths and crying. Urban tried to get up but, as if she didn't have any strength left, she fell back down. She cried hysterically and with 'great effort' she managed to sit against the wall.

"Hey…" a silent voice came a few meters away. Urban gasped and tried to get farther from whoever said it. She stared with big, scared eyes at the figure appearing from behind the door.

"It's… it's okay. You're safe here", the blond girl said as she walked towards Urban. She kneeled in front of her. "Everything's fine…"

"It's not", Urban said with a hoarse voice. "It's not, it was so close, we almost made it…" She talked fast and stared with watery eyes at her hands that were resting on her lap.

"What did you say? What was close?" the girl asked leaning closer.

"…so close, if only I'd… My fault, now it's over, there's no hope…"

"What the hell are you talking about?" she asked again clearly a little annoyed.

Urban quieted down and looked at the girl blankly. Short-tempered, are we? She thought while she developed her plan further. She opened her mouth trying to say something but no sound came out. Tears began to flow harder.

The girl grabbed Urban by the shoulders and shook lightly.

"Hey! Snap out of it! What happened? Who were you with?"

Eventually Urban whispered, barely audible: "We found a way."

She cleared her throat and continued with a fairly normal voice.

"Me and my sister found a way to confine him. A special dagger. Silver, from a melted cross, holy water inside the crucifix-shaped handle… Almost everything in one item."

She breathed shakily for a few times before proceeding.

"Everything went so well… But something happened and he, he…" Urban covered her mouth with her hand and sobbed. "He got her…"

The girl watched Urban with sympathy. She knew what it was like to face that monster. But what was she saying, a way to confine that bastard? Before she could ask the woman spoke again.

"I panicked. I shouldn't have, I should've used the opportunity. I just froze; I couldn't do anything until he came after me."

"You mentioned a dagger that would work against him."

Now Urban covered her entire face with her hands. "…I dropped it…"

She heard the girl sigh, very deeply and clearly frustrated. Urban couldn't help smirking behind her hands.

"Where?"

"Right outside the door." I felt it falling but didn't realize it in time. And he was right behind me, I couldn't… I didn't have the courage to turn back."

"Right outside the door?" the girl asked seriously.

"Yes."

The girl stood up and stared into emptiness for a while. Then she took off in the direction where the door was. "Wait here."

Urban shouted in terror after her.

"Wh-what are you doing?! Don't go out there! He'll get you t…"

"I can't let an opportunity like this just slip away! That asshole must pay for what he's done!"

"W… wait…" Urban tried to stand up. "I'm coming with you…"

"You're of no use in that condition."

"I'll keep watch by the door. I'll warn if I see something strange. Please, I need to…"

The girl looked at Urban strictly as she painfully got up. Urban looked back at her with new determination in her eyes. The girl shook her head for a while.

"Alright", she said and helped the woman on the way to the door. "Oh", she laughed weakly, "I'm Tracy."

The woman quickly flashed a crooked smile. "Urban."


They finally made it to the door. Urban leaned against it and tried to explain where the dagger had most likely fallen.

"I came from there", she pointed left from the door, "I think it's close to that corner."

"You think?"

"I'm almost positively sure."

Tracy faked a laugh. "Better than nothing." She opened the door just enough so she could check if anyone was out there. No-one. Not yet, anyway. "I'm gonna go search for it. If I can't find it right away I'm coming back. I don't want to be out there any longer than necessary. You stay here and let me know immediately if you see something. Anything at all."

Urban nodded slowly. "If you find the dagger, and if you see him, aim for the heart. It should work then."

"Talk about a cliché…" Tracy said. She closed her eyes, placed her palms together and took deep, relaxing breaths. After the third one she opened her eyes, twisted her neck and turned towards Urban.

"Wish me luck", she said and stepped out of the door.

Urban stationed herself by the door. "Good luck!" She looked lazily around and muttered: "Though I don't think it'll help."

Tracy walked promptly towards the building's corner, constantly observing her surroundings. With a quick glance she couldn't see anything, but she moved forward. Nothing on this side of the corner, maybe on the other. She went around the corner from quite far to avoid possible surprise attack. Nothing here either.

"Tracy!"

Tracy turned back without a second thought and bumped into something big and white. She didn't even look at what it was, just tried with all her ability to get away from it. But it had taken a strong hold of her arms.

"Honey, it's me."

Tracy stiffened. She couldn't even breathe. Slowly she lifted her gaze to the form in front of her. Tall, fat man, dark hair and moustache, black rings under his eyes. Those small, ravenous eyes stared at her hungrily as he looked at Tracy from head to toe.

"No…" she whispered in disbelief.

"Daddy's back", the man said with a soft voice. "And he wants something sweet."

"No… you can't, you are not him."

Tracy barely managed to finish her sentence when the man turned her around and pressed her against him. His left arm circled around her and the right began to descend, following her side.

"This is our little secret. Right, honey?" His hand lowered to her thigh and circulated on her right buttock. He squeezed lightly.

Tracy began to scream and fight to get away. The man tightened his grip from her upper body and his right hand grabbed her from between her thighs. Tracy made a disgusted sound. Tears started falling on her cheeks. The lower hand rubbed her almost painfully, and the man breathed heavily in Tracy's ear.

Tracy was in shock. Her resistance weakened slightly. Crying, she kept repeating to herself: "This isn't happening again, you're not real…"

Suddenly she felt a lump on her lower back. It was throbbing and grew harder.

"NO!"

Tracy gathered all her strength and kicked the man in the shin. His hold loosened enough for the girl to strike her elbow to his diaphragm. The growled in pain and let go. Tracy booted him to the knee, making him fall down.

Then she ran. She ran as fast as her trembling allowed her to. She noticed Urban standing by the door, an upset look on her face.

"Get inside!" Tracy yelled at her but Urban didn't move. She just stared at where Tracy had been seconds ago.

"Urban" Get ins…"

Tracy stopped. "No", was all she could say.

Behind Urban stood another man in a red-green sweater. He grinned widely and waved to Tracy with his gloved hand.

"Run", the girl said with a steady voice but Urban didn't react in any way.

Suddenly Urban felt hands on her shoulders and jumped a bit. She noticed Tracy was looking for anything that could be used as a weapon.

"Krueger! Come here and fight like a man!"

Freddy laughed and talked to Urban loud enough for Tracy to hear it too.

"Ooh, look. Little princess is trying to save you." He traced his tongue along Urban's bloody neck. "How futile."

Tracy grabbed a stone from the ground and with a scream she threw it at Freddy, who dodged it with no difficulty. "You throw like a girl", he said disappointed.

Freddy let go of Urban and stepped next to her.

"Step aside and let daddy show how it's done."

Urban nodded and walked by the wall effortlessly and leaned on it, hands in her pockets.

Tracy's eyes grew wide. What just happened..? Why did he, they…

"Tracy, Tracy. What big eyes you have. Makes me wanna gouge them out."

"Oh my God…" The girl finally understood the situation. She turned towards Urban.

"You're helping him..? You fucking bitch! How could you do this..!"

"Shut up!" Urban shouted back. "I'll much rather listen to your death screams."

Tracy looked back at Freddy, who waved his hand and a harpoon appeared in it. He measured her with his eyes for a while.

"Is this going to be like shooting a fish in a barrel or are you gonna run?"

The girl was silent for a moment. She straightened her back, looked Freddy defiantly and said: "I'm not afraid of you. I am not going to run after all this time."

"Hmph. Too bad."

SCRUTCH

Tracy gasped. She began to feel very weird so she looked down. Her eyes widened even more when she saw the harpoon sticking out of her abdomen. It had gone through and tiny hooks were keeping it in place. On the other end was a rope attached. After admiring his excellent aiming Freddy started to pull the rope.

Tracy tried to stay still but the pain following the first tug made it impossible. She whimpered loudly and fell on her knees.

Another, a bit harder tug came, and now Tracy screamed aloud her agony. She fell on her side, her face twisted with pain.

Freddy enjoyed the sight enormously, and changed the speed and length of his tugs.

After many screams, curses and cries Tracy finally was at Freddy's feet. He knelt down, grabbed her by the throat and stood up, lifting her in the air. Freddy brought her face close to his own.

"Bye-bye, princess."

Blades flashed and accompanied by a sick sound they sank into Tracy's chest. She tried to scream but her lungs were ripped quickly. The blades pulled back only to plunge back in her body.

Tracy let out strange, gargling noises as blood seeped up her throat. During her execution she never took her eyes off of Freddy, as didn't he of hers. Eventually he saw her eyes becoming foggy and then lifeless.

Freddy held Tracy's body until it began to fade, leaving only her soul. He absorbed it quickly and looked very satisfied.

Then he remembered Urban and turned towards her.

"Who would've known? You actually were useful."

Urban tried to hide a smile but didn't quite succeed.

Freddy walked closer leisurely. "And that means you'll live to see tomorrow. The day after that… We'll see." He walked right in front of Urban and licked his lips. "But now it's time to wake up", Freddy whispered huskily and pushed Urban out of the dream realm.


The end of this chapter. I'll try to update sometime next month. I think my writer's block is fading a little. Thanks for reading. REVIEW! :)
