Luke was running though some woods late at night. The boy was running as fast as he could, something was chasing him and Luke could hear it was gaining on him. Luke suddenly hit the ground he had triped over a tree root. He turned to see a dark figure apporoch him.
"what do you want" luke demanded.
The figure spoke in a raspy evil voice.
"I want you luke smith" the figure said as he pointed at luke.
The figure moved closer and Luke began to feel afraid.
"Leave me alone" Luke told him.
"I'm afraid I can't do that," the figure continued.
The figure grabbed Luke and picked him up.
"You're the one who sets me free" the figure added.
"Let me go" Luke pleaded.
The figure laughed and it chilled Luke to the bone. That's when Luke woke up in a cold sweat.
"Mum" he yelled as he finally woke up.
Sarah Jane came running into his room.
"Luke what's wrong" she asked.
Luke turned to his mum and she could see Luke looked really scared.
"It was a nightmare mum" Luke replied as tears rolled down face.
Sarah Jane hugged her son.
"It was so real mum," Luke sobbed.
"Hey it's ok it was just nightmare" Sarah Jane told him.
"But I don't have nightmare's. He must be back," Luke continued.
"Shhh we don't know anything yet" Sarah Jane added.
And with that Sarah Jane and Luke went up to the attic and to mr smith.
"Mr smith I need you" Sarah Jane called.
The far wall in the attic transformed as mr smith appeared.
"How can I help you Sarah Jane" mr smith asked.
"Luke's had a nightmare can you scan him" Sarah Jane asked the computer.
"Of cause Sarah Jane" mr smith answered as he began the scan.
Soon the scan was complete.
"Well mr smith" Sarah Jane said.
" I detect no viscloth activity but there is some residual physic energy" mr smith told them.
"So it isn't the nightmare man" Luke replied.
"No I believe the energy is left over from Luke's encounter with mr eldritch" mr smith continued.
"What are you saying mr smith?" Sarah Jane asked.
"Master luke's mind was connected to eldritch and the energy left over contains parts of eldritch mind" K9 explained as he came up to sarah Jane and luke.
"The dog is correct Sarah Jane" mr smith told her.
"Thank you mr smith" K9 replied.
"So in other words the nightmare came from eldritch mind," Luke added.
"That is correct, but the left over energy will be gone soon" mr smith answer.
"Well that's that then" Luke said sounding relieved.
Sarah Jane turned to her son.
"You best get back to bed remember your going back to oxford tomorrow" Sarah Jane continued.
"Ok night mum" Luke replied.
"Night luke" Sarah Jane added as she gave Luke a kiss.
The next morning Luke was busy loading up his car, Luke had been staying with his mum over the Christmas holiday but now it was time to return to oxford.
"Everything packed" Sarah Jane asked as she joined her son.
"Almost" Luke replied as he put the last of his stuff into his car.
"Doesn't seem five minutes since you came home Luke"
"Yeah times sure flown by, mind you can't wait to see Sanjay josh and Danny"
"I bet you can't" Sarah Jane said sounding a little sad.
Luke turned to his mum.
"Hey Easters not far away and I'll have 12 weeks in the summer remember" Luke told her.
"I know, I just miss you not being here" Sarah Jane replied.
Luke hugged his mum.
Soon it was time for Luke to leave and Clyde and Rani had arrived to see Luke off.
"Guess I'll see you lot later" Luke said as he got into his car.
"See you in a bit mate" Clyde told him.
"Try not to get drunk at any parties" Rani said with a wink.
"No strictly soft drinks for me" Luke answered as his eyes turned to his mum.
"And I should hope so too" Sarah Jane replied.
"Bye mum" Luke continued.
"Bye luke" Sarah Jane said as she gave Luke a kiss.
She then turned to K9.
"Bye K9" she added.
"Goodbye mistress" the dog replied.
"Bye K9" Clyde and Rani said together.
"Goodbye master Clyde, goodbye mistress Rani" K9 answered.
"Bye" Luke called as he left with K9 in his car.
Sarah Jane Clyde and Rani watched Luke head down the road and waved when Luke raised his hand out of the window.
Luke and K9 soon arrived at oxford and as Luke was unloading his car he heard a familiar voice.
"Well if it isn't my good friend Luke"
Luke turned to see Sanjay.
"Sanjay" Luke replied.
"Greetings master Sanjay" K9 said as he went up to Sanjay.
"Hey K9" Sanjay greeted.
"So did you have a good Christmas?" Luke asked.
"Yeah it was all right, how was yours" Sanjay asked in return.
"Wicked mate mind you we did have to fight the slitheen yet again"
"Those guys never give up, I'm guessing things got a bit messy"
"Yeah everyone else managed to drive for cover this time but I wasn't so lucky"
"So how many times is that now?"
"Too many"
"Well it's good to have you back mate"
"It's good to be back, Hey are josh and Danny back yet"
"No there not back till tomorrow it's josh's brothers birthday today I think"
"Oh right"
"Do you wanna a hand with ya stuff?"
"If ya don't mind"
"course not"
"Thanks Sanjay"
"No prob mate"
Later that night Luke was in his dorm room on the computer talking to Maria via web chat, and Luke told Maria about the nightmare he'd had.
"You had a nightmare!" Maria said.
"Yeah there was this figure chasing me" Luke replied.
"But you don't normally have nightmares or dreams for that matter"
"Yeah last time I had one it was the nightmare man causing them"
"You don't think he's back do you?"
Luke shook his head.
"No mr smith and K9 seem to think it's left over parts of Eldritch's mind from when he connected my mind to his during that experiment. But mr smith says the effects shouldn't last too long"
"Good" Maria said with a smile.
Luke smiled back at his friend and once again Luke had that feeling.
"I wish you were here Maria, I've missed you not being around" Luke told her.
"You too, but dad's got a job now that means he'll be backwards and forwards between America and the U.K, so I should be able to come and see you soon" Maria explained.
Luke's face lit up with excitement.
"Oh that great news" he told her.
"I thought you'd be pleased"
"Oh I am"
Luke and Maria carried on talking late into the night until Maria had to go.
"Well I'm gonna have to get going" Maria told Luke.
"Ok" Luke said with a sigh.
"I'll be on again tomorrow," Maria continued.
"Alright guess I'll talk to ya later" Luke replied with a smile.
"Bye luke"
"Bye Maria"
"See ya" Maria added as she sighed out of web chat.
Luke yawned as he shut down his computer, Luke could feel his eye's getting heavy and he was about to fall asleep on his desk when he heard a girls voice singing.
"Hello" Luke said he walked towards the door.
Luke opened his door and headed into the corridor.
"One two three four he's coming to get you all" the girls voice sang.
Luke turned towards the voice and could see the girl standing at end of the corridor.
"Who are you" Luke asked as walked up to the girl.
"Five six seven eight he needs you to open up the gate" the girl carried on singing.
"Who needs me, what gate" Luke asked.
Suddenly the lights in the corridor went out and the girl was gone.
"Luke smith" a voice whispered.
Luke turned towards the voice.
"Who there?" Luke demanded.
"Luke smith come to me" the voice continued.
Luke followed the voice and until he came to a basement.
"Who's down there" Luke called out as he slowly headed down the stairs to the basement.
Suddenly one of the doors in the basement began to rattle and Luke somehow knew that what ever was behind that door needed to stay there.
"I need to get out of here," Luke said to himself
Luke run back up the stairs to the basement but the door at the top of the stairs slammed shut, luke tried to open it but he couldn't it was jammed.
"Come to me Luke" the voice called as the rattling got louder.
Luke was starting to panic now the only way out was jammed and then to make matters worse the door below him the crashed open.
"I need you Luke, I need you to set me free" the voice told him.
Suddenly a hand came out of the darkness and grabbed Luke dragging him down the stairs.
"Set me free Luke smith, set me free" the voice screamed.
To be continued.
