Chapter Five:
Katie and Freddy frantically ran to Alicia's house, the night sky was crisp and clear. Tha air was cold..Katie's breath cast a icy layer of mist with every breath. When they arrived at their friends home..They found themselves too late. Police officers and ambulance's were parked around the home...A man and woman pulled a stretcher out of the house, sad expressions on their faces...Katie ran over to the stretcher and stopped them from going any further.
"Alicia..She's dead isn't she?" Katie asked
"We're sorry" The man said
"No! We could of saved her..It's all my fault...Let me see her body..Now" Katie said, starting to cry
"We can't miss" The woman said
"Like hell you can't..Show me!" Katie yelled
The man and woman did what she said and pulled the blood stained cloth off of Alicia's face..Katie whimpered seeing one of her best friend's face..Her lips were ice blue and her eye were cast open fearfully..Katie grabbed the cloth and pulled it down further to see Alicia's stomach pulled apart..The sight was too much for her and before anyone could catch Katie..She fainted, hitting the cement driveway.

Katie found herself in another unknown area. The floor she was standing on creaked of old wood and the air smelt of smoke. Looking around, Katie saw what looked like a teenage version of Alice staring at a young about seven or eight years old...He was Alice's unborn child..Who she had met in her dreams before, Jacob....,Jacob's icy blue eye stared absently out the cracked window in front of him, onto the abandoned street.
"Jacob?" Alice asked, walking closer to her son
Jacob turned around, his skin was pasty white. Sickly looking..He expression saddened at the sight of Alice.
"Oh..Hello" Jacob said, quietly
Jacob stared at his mother and tuned back to the window...Katie walked over to Alice's side..Sure that she was invisible to them.
"Hi, you don't look very well..Are you feeling alright?" Alice asked, attentively. Taking on a motherly tone
"Been having bad dreams" Jacob said
"Is this where you lie, Jacob?" Alice asked, Jacob shook his head "No"
"Just waiting for someone...It's sad about Greta" Jacob said
"Is that who you're waiting for?" Alice asked
"No" Jacob said
"I don't think this is a nice place for you to be. Maybe we should go find your Mom" Alice said
"She doesn't want me around" Jacob said
" Oh...I'm sure that's not true. I'll bet she's very worried about you. I would be" Alice said
Jacob slowly turned around, his eye sad and hurt...Katie's eyes filled with tears for him..She could feel his pain...It was like they were connecting.
"No you're not. You don't even care about being a mom. How come you don't think about me?" Jacob asked
"Who said I...Wait..What?" Alice asked, confused
"I like you...I want to stay with you. Why don't you want me? Is there something wrong with me?" Jacob asked
Alice stared blankly at them and then it hit her...She walked closer to Jacob. Almost within reach of him..Katie walked with her and to next to Jacob, grabbing his hand..Knowing he wouldn't feel..But, his head quickly turned and looked at where she was standing..A shiver went up and down her spine.
"Who says I don't like you?" Alice asked
"My friend with the funny hand" Jacob said
Katie's eye went wide..Was it Krueger? She hadn't seen him yet, but she thought Freddy or Nancy had mentioned something about a hand of claw like knifes...She didn't like this at all and could tell Alice didn't either..Alice reached out to pull Jacob away.
"Come on, honey..We're getting out of here" Alice said
"I have to go now...He wants me again" Jacob said, scurrying off up the nearby staircase and into the shadows
"No! Jacob!" Alice yelled, running after him
Katie was going to follow her..But a force of air came came over her body..She looked around and herself in a maze like room..Alice walked into the room and stopped, staring at something..She saw Jacob and the dream demon himself..Freddy Krueger..Katie gasped in terror at him.
"Mommy?" Jacob said, apprehensively at his mother
"Come on downstairs..He won't hurt you..He needs us both" Alice said
"I've got both of you" Krueger said, making a threatening, yet teasing motion "Which half would you like?"
"Come on, Jacob. Time to go home" Alice said
Suddenly, Alice is far away from Jacob...The young boy looks up at Freddy, hesitates and makes his decision. He starts running towards his mother..Freddy running after him.
"Run faster, Jacob!" Katie yelled
Alice suddenly seemed closer to Katie and winked, smiling...Jacob is just about to his mother when..
"Jacob" A voice said
Jacob turns around. He turns around and sees Dan, his dead father...Alice's eye open widely as she stares at the one man she truly loves more than life and both longing are expressions on her face. Katie's eye narrow, knowing something is wrong.
"It's alright, to Daddy" Dan said
Jacob walks towards Dan..Hesitating at his outstretched arms, ready for a warm embrace...Katie's suddenly realizes something..And so does Alice.
"He's not your father!" Alice and Katie yell at the same time
Suddenly "Dan" turns into Krueger...Jacob turns around and runs toward his mother once again. Krueger snarls and runs after him.
"Kids...Always a disappointment" Krueger said
Katie dropped to the ground and screamed, tears streaming down her cheeks...She is getting pissed off and scared..She wants to help them, but can't..She's invisible right now..except for that once second when Alice winked at her..Slamming her fists on the metal flooring, she screams louder..All her feelings about Alicia's death coming out..The worst of the pain had not even been let out..Only some had.
"No! Why did she have to die?! Krueger! This is your fault! Why us?! Why did you have to go after me?! You are such a bastard! Just fucking show yourself already! I'm ready to see you!" Katie yelled, choking on her words
"Me? I'm here babe" Krueger said, suddenly appearing in front of her
The burnt demon grabbed Katie's arm and with in-human strength, lifted her up...She screamed in pain as his blades punctured her delicate skin..That scream woke her up..The next thing she knew, Katie was in a white room with doctors and nurses dressed in blue scrubs around her..Her eyes frantically shot around the room as she sat up...Screaming she looked at her bleeding arm and started shaking, crying hysterically.
"A-Alicia! No! Let me out of here!" Katie screamed, trying to get away from the doctors and nurses surrounding her
"Calm down, Kathryn" A small blonde nurse said
"No!" Katie screamed
A man got into Katie's way of running off and pinned her back to the cold, metal gurney she had been on..She was still shaking and screaming..Katie had no idea what was bringing this on, but it was almost like a way to let everything all out..She cried harder with every second, out of breath with every heart-retching gasp.
"Please..Let me go..I want to see Freddy..I need him now..Don't you get it you bastards?!" Katie said, yelling at the end
"We need to keep you in here right now" A doctor said
"No..Let..Me..Out!" Katie yelled, struggling again
Suddenly, everything went totally white to Katie...She still felt pinned to something, but nothing was around her...Her screaming suddenly stopped and she felt peace..But, then the room became red and none other than Freddy Krueger was above her, cackling..Katie screamed in terror, suddenly back with the doctors and nurses.
"Krueger! Help me! he is going to kill us all...the bastard..Don't let him get me!" Katie yelled
"Paranoia...Do you think we should send her to you know..." A nurse asked a doctor
"Yes...All the signs are being shown" The doctor said
"Let me go" Katie said, her teeth grinding
"We can't, Kathryn..You need help and we know just where you can get it...Willow Valley" The doctor said
"The psychiatric hospital?" Katie asked, everyone except her nodded "You can't You can't do this to me! Freddy! Summer! Mom!"
Katie felt her whole world falling apart before her eyes and she wanted to do something about Krueger....She didn't want this..But, it was now her responsibility..She was stuck in a place which would be hard to get out of..She closed her eyes and fell asleep..She needed to find Alice...Katie's demanded her mind to go to Alice...And as she wanted, it did...Alice sat staring confusedly at Katie, but then smiled.
"What's up?" Alice asked
"I-I..It's too late..I can't help anyone else" Katie said
"What happened?" Alice asked
"They're sending me away to Willow Valley Psychiatric Hospital..They think I'm crazy" Katie said
"No..What about you and me defeated Krueger?" Alice asked
"You'll have to meet my boyfriend, Freddy and figure it out...I can't" Katie said, shrugging
"I can do it...Leave it all to me" Alice said, Katie smiled
"This will be the last time in a very long..Well, I won't be smiling a lot anymore where they're putting me" Katie said, hugging Alice
"I promise..I'll tell all you're friends what is happening and we can all save you..I'll bring you and them into a dream..Where we can all try to defeat Krueger" Alice said, smiling
"Thanks..Got to go" Katie said, feeling someone poking at her arm
"Bye" Alice said, quietly
