Chapter 4: A Family Outing?

Katina stood shocked staring at the form before her. It was Cody, but it wasn't. His blue Eyes had become solid black, his slightly round form had become slightly more solid. His outfit was awesome! But what caught her attention most, was what was on his hand, a gleaming black knifed red glove, with blood dripping down it. She stood silent in shock. Obviously Cody hadn't seen her yet.

"Ah Killing is so much fun! " She heard his voice say. It sounded exactly the same to her. Even in this twisted dream world, but killing? Could her love really be as twisted as her Uncle? If so, why hadn't her Uncle told her of this dream slayer. She pulled her Uncles sweater a little. "Uncle Freddy, Is.is that. is that a boy named Cody? Normally stands a little shorter a little more round, but sarcastic, very sarcastic." " No Kid, that's a dream slayer named Cody. Look, I'm guessing he's the kid on elm street you didn't want me to slaughter. Well you don't have to worry about that because I doubt the dream demons would approve. " he clicks his glove a little nervous at even talking about the dream demons. "And I really don't feel like losing my powers cause of some punk kid. " Cody scoffed, he had only heard Freddy call him a punk kid. " Who you calling a punk Krueger? I've whooped your ass several times, don't tempt me to do it again! " Krueger smirked his rotten teeth showing. "Hey, I thought Guys didn't fight around there girl-friends." Cody Spun around at Krueger's words, the trench- coat flowing behind him. "Katina!" he panicked. She was in dream land with Krueger! She had seen him with blood on his claw, but that didn't matter she was in danger. "How!" he thought to himself. "How did he find out about her? I thought I had blocked my mind from his! Damn it!" Cody shot out his gloved hand and it pierced into Krueger's shoulder pinning him against a pipe. "Great a fight between two immortal dream slayers, this should be fun" he thought to himself. Krueger grunted in pain. " Fucking kid! Your going to pay for that!" Cody ran up as his arm shortened back to its normal length and formed a spike on his knee then drove it into Freddy's gut. "Uncle Freddy!" Katina screamed. Cody turned his head and removed his weapons from Krueger's cursing body. "Katina!" He returned to his normal self just from the shock of hearing her voice. He ran over too her concern in his eyes, he had only heard her voice not what she had said. "Go leave! This place is too dangerous for you, he will kill you if he can." Katina looked into Cody's eyes and of all things began to laugh. She laughed long and hard then set her hand on Cody's shoulder. "MY Uncle wouldn't lay a claw on me. That's what I was trying to tell you earlier, but I couldn't get it out. I saw what happened to your art and I thought he was coming after you, so I went to sleep.too try.too try and get my uncle to not kill you, but I see I really don't have to worry about that." Cody was in total shock. Could she really be related to the dream stalker? Was he dating, no was he in love with the niece of the most well known serial-killer of all time? His face was blank and both she and Krueger could see it. So Katina went on explaining hoping to snap him back into reality. "You see, Freddy had a daughter, my mom. He tried to get her to join him, but he couldn't. She wasn't into violence. She defeated him." At these word Krueger huffs. "She moved on with her life, got married, had a child. Got divorced. That child was me, then my mother died in a car accident when I was two years old, if it wasn't for my uncle Freddy I would have died in it too, but he was in my dreams and saved me from harm. He was with me when I was adopted by the Hodders, he was in my dreams in middle school, he taught me how to Dream hop.In a way he lead me too you. Do you remember Cody? In the summer between Eight and Ninth grade is when you and I met? At that Friday the 13th Convention? Cody nodded somberly, he was in deep shock. How, how is it possible that his love was the niece of The bastard son of a thousand maniacs. How? Just.how.. "Well, I don't know if you remember but the night before that I was in your dreams, and I had seen you at school, sulking and skulking in the corner of the lunch room and I wanted too know what was really on your mind. I jumped into your dreams, just out of Curiosity, What I saw in that dream was you, merely sitting in blackness, you made me wonder more and more about you. I started to walk in the darkness, and as I grew closer too you. I heard a melody, a sweet soft melody, I didn't know what it was at first but then I recognized it from having been with my uncle in other dreams. It was your souls song, the melody of which you live by, it was so calm at first, but as I got closer I heard it grow angrier and angrier. I decided to look into your brain, into your past and I saw all the horrible things people had done too you, and then I spoke too the little boy sitting in the light, he was happy. I remember that he told me that despite the fact that everyone made fun of him for being different he was happy he was. Then I realized, I wasn't different at all from the people my dear uncle was slaughtering, but I wanted too be different I wanted to be like you, and I knew the only way to do that was too become your friend. So I probed a little deeper and discovered you were going to the Friday the 13th convention in town and decided to go and find you there and make friends. You remember that day don't you? When we met?" "Of Course I do Katina, how could I ever forget, I bumped into you and spilled my soda all over you, I tried to apologize but you just laughed and laughed. I told you I had seen you in school and that I had no idea you liked serial killer movies, I didn't know then that I would fall in love with you, and now.now I realize that you saved me from that darkness, it was closing in it was going to envelope the small boy and destroy him. Katina, I love you. No matter who " Smirks slightly at Krueger getting a raised eyebrow from the Dream Slayer. " or what you are related too, you are my life my love my one and only." "Aw how touching!" piped in Krueger, almost disgusted by the sappiness of it all. "Shut up Uncle F, Cody, show me the real you, please let me see you kill.." Cody smiled and gently kissed her after she spoke. "Come on Krueger, Katina, lets go have some fun!" A twisted smile overcame his face as his body returned to the Dark Slayer.
