Ch.2 The Man Of Your Dreams Part 2
Raven heard the door knocked and shouted across her room, "Who is it?"
When no one answered she cautiously walked over to the door and asked again but this time in a panicked voice, "Who the hell is it?"
"Shhhh grumpy aren't you?" Came a voice from behind the door.
Raven recognized it immediately, "Beast Boy?" She asked.
"No duhhh I heard you screaming down the hallway, can you let me in?" Beast Boy asked.
Raven opened up her door and Beast Boy stepped in, "Are you okay?"
Raven shuddered, "Should I tell him?" She asked herself.
"Beast Boy," Came Robin's voice, "where's the orange juice?"
"Not now!" Beast Boy shouted.
He turned back to Raven, "Now what's going on?"
Raven immediately dropped her eyes, "Well you see its…"
Without warning a horrid hand shot out of the darkness and grabbed Beast Boy, Raven screamed when the same monster from her dream strode into the room holding up Beast Boy with one hand while the other one sprouted claws.
"I said where's the damn orange juice!" He repeated.
Beast Boy screamed in terror as the monster swung his hand and his claws crashed into Beast Boy. Tearing muscles and crushing bone, when Beast Boy grew limp the creature shrugged and threw him to the side.
"No!" Raven cried out when she saw Beast Boy's mutilated body.
Her fear turned to rage and she swung at the creatures face, her fist made contact with something hard and the creatures fedora was knocked off. When Raven saw his face, she screamed in untold horror, this was no man! The creature had horrible dislocated burnt skin and muscle and bone was exposed. Parts of his lips were eaten away revealing pale gums with sharp yellow teeth and large canines. But the worst part of the creature was his eyes, they were horrible sinister jade green and Raven couldn't take her gaze away from them.
Snarling the creature picked up Raven with one hand, shook her violently and threw her across the room. Raven landed on the floor hard and struggled to pick herself up, the creature extended it's claws and began walking towards her.
"Stay back!" Raven shouted.
The creature proceeded walking towards her, Raven tried to summon her powers but she couldn't. When the creature was just a few feet away from her she swung blindly at him, only to him catch her blow and twist her wrist. Raven let out a cry of pain.
"Now listen to me you little slut!" The creature barked, "I'm not here to kill you, I just need you to send a little message."
"What kind of m-message?" Raven managed to stammer.
"I'm so glad you asked." The creature replied coolly.
With a simple push the creature sent Raven spiraling through the air and she landed softly on her mattress, she looked up astounded that the creature was that strong. Within a moment she and the creature were face to face and her grinned when he saw he panicked expression.
"You see Raven these are crazy times," The creature explained, "And a certain demon namely your father thinks that he can get away with simply walking out into the world with no strings attached, well he has another thing coming!"
"You know my father?" Raven asked.
"Know him? HA!" The creature chuckled, he brought his face close to Raven's, "I own him!"
Raven couldn't believe what she was hearing, "But how?"
The creature grinned and continued, "I've been watching your father for quite some time and I have tolerated his incompetence for long enough! He's sunk so low now I cannot stand to look at him, trying to escape his realm is one thing! But trying to take something that rightfully is mine that's a real bitch!"
The creature leapt on the mattress and glared down at Raven, suddenly a flash of lightning lit up the room and to Raven's shock she discovered that there were seven other creatures in the room with them! One of them was standing over her bed and was wearing a white mask, another sat perched on Raven's desk, a hulk like figure at least fifteen feet tall stood in the far corner of the room, a muscular man with tattoos all over his body stood by the creature grinning, one more creature was to the left and it had a object attached to it's arm. The object rumbled and whined but Raven couldn't make out what it was, and finally the last creature towered over the rest, it's dragon like body swayed and moved in the cramped space, while snow white eyes watched Raven's every move and gleaming teeth gnashed up and down.
"The message I need you to send is this! We're coming! Tell your friends! Tell everyone!" The creature howled.
"Oh and by the way," The creature muttered, "Happy late birthday!"
The creature leapt forward and before Raven could scream his hand clamped down on her mouth and Raven's world turned black.
"AH!" Raven screamed as she shot out of bed.
In a panic she leapt out of bed, and checked her background, she was in her room. Not satisfied she pinched herself and she cringed in pain.
"At least I know I'm awake." She muttered.
Raven sat back down on her bed and sighed, "Was it all just a dream, it couldn't have been it seemed so real, too real."
Raven shifted her hands through the covers and her hand hit something hard and worn, Raven raised a questioning eyebrow, "What is that?"
She carefully dug through her covers, and she grabbed something what felt like worn out leather. Hands shaking she brought out the object into the light and nearly screamed, she was holding the same hat the creature was wearing, lightning flashed outside and she flung the hat to the right. She embraced her knees and tried to figure things out, while she read the words gleaming in blood red paint. The letters were written in messy printing but it legible, the letters spelled out a name, a name Raven would never forget and come soon to fear, the letters spelt Fred C. Krueger.
