AN: Alex is in trouble, will David arrive in time to help her? Read and find out!
Chapter Six
Everyone in the Russo household was watching helplessly as the only female child, Alex was thrashing about, trying to fight off an invisible opponent. All they could do was watch, and pray that help would arrive soon.
"What's going on?" William said as he and Lynn arrived in their doorway.
"Look!" Jerry said, pointing to his daughter. William and Lynn looked and saw that Alex was indeed in trouble. She was thrashing about like someone or something was attacking her.
"What's going on?" Theresa asked.
"It has to be Nightmare." Lynn said. "He has to be the one doing this."
"Well, help her! Do something!" Jerry pleaded.
"We can't." William said. "Only a person with a Jagan Eye can enter a person's mind and find out what is going on."
"Hey." A voice called from the doorway. Everyone turned and saw David standing there. He was dressed in boots, black jeans, and a black t-shirts. Everyone was staring at him, but David was staring at Alex. HE walked over and stared at her. He knew what he had to do. Everyone watched as David removed his headband, and his Jagan flashed a bright light. As soon as he pressed his hands to the side of Alex's face she seemed to calm down as David entered Alex's mind...

David looked around and was in a pitch black area. He knew that he had to find Alex before it was too late. He wouldn't be able to live with himself if anything happened to her because of him.
"See, I told you he would come for you." David heard Nightmare hissed. David turned around and saw Nightmare, gripping Alex's wrist. David felt his anger rise as Nightmare hurt his girlfriend, well, ex-girlfriend.
"What's the matter?" Nightmare taunted. "Don't like me hurting your girlfriend? Do something about it then!"
David wanted to feed him to the wolves for what he ad done. Then he realized something. Nightmare wanted him to come here. Nightmare had home-field advantage here. If David wanted to save Alex, he had to do something, and he knew exactly what.
"You are really pathetic, you know that, right?" David said. "You can't fight me face to face, so you use my loved ones to try to get to me."
"Please." Nightmare said, still gripping onto Alex. "I can take you on anywhere, anytime. I just wanted to take out some of your loved ones so that I can have a little fun, is all."
"You are a coward, plain and simple. I fought and killed men with bigger cajones than you have. You are plain pathetic." David spat at Nightmare. David succeeded in getting under Nightmare's skin. Nightmare released Alex, and began to charge at David. David took out the Demon's Cross, charged is energy into a sword blade, and cut through Nightmare. Nightmare disappeared in a puff of smoke, like he wasn't even there. After the commotion was over, Alex ran over to David.
"Is it over?" Alex asked, still frightened.
"Yeah, it is for now." David said, looking directly at her. "Let's get out of here."
"How?" Alex asked, "This place is pitch black. It isn't like there is any doors in here."
"The only way to get out of a place like this is to shock you, figuratively of course." David said.
"How are you going to do that?" Alex asked.
"This." David said. Before Alex could react, David planted a kiss on Alex's lips. It felt...right, and nice...

Alex bolted up in her bed, throwing David back on to the ground. Theresa hugged her daughter, relieved that she was safe. David got up, and brushed himself off.
"Well, what happened?" William asked David.
"I managed to scare off Nightmare for now, but I have a feeling that he is going to regroup and try again." David said.
"Now what?" Jerry asked David.
"Honestly, I don't know." David said, looking out into the starry night.
