Chapter Four: Two Souls, One Dream

Kali sat up quickly and turned to Angela who had just shut her eyes and shook her. "Hey! What's the big idea I thought you were going to bring me in?" Angela looked confused.

"No you're not coming in with me. At least until I bring him Trudy and maybe a few other people first." Kali explained firmly.

"What why?" Angela stared back at her friend. "Because he'll kill you." Angela looked at her in disbelief and huffed. "And you thought he wasn't real… now you're afraid of him killing me." She smiled then wrinkled her nose. "Gross dude you smell like burnt flesh and old house."

Kali smelled herself then made a disgusted face as she rubbed her cheeks with her hands. "He likes to grab me by the face when he talks to me… it kinda freaks me out to feel his skin on mine…" Kali shuttered.

"Creepy…" Angela agreed and got to her feet. "…So what do you want to do then? It's only noon. School's not even out yet."

"Wanna go to the movies? I've been wanting to see Twenty-Eight Weeks Later since it came out on Friday." Kali suggested holding the icepack to the back of her head. "Hells yes! Let me just find my Harkins cup and we'll go." Angela slipped her shoes on and rushed to the kitchen to find the cup.

After the movie they went and grabbed some fast food before going back to Angela's house. When they got there Angela's Mom was home. "Hi Mrs. Santsaver." Kali greeted her when they sat at the kitchen table. The kitchen had wallpaper along the top of the wall with grapes and other various fruits and veggies with light green walls. "Ang what happened at school today? The principal called and said that you two ditched and Kali is suspended for beating someone up." She asked concerned then noticed the bump on Kali's head. "Oh dear what happened?" She grabbed an icepack out of the freezer and handed it to Kali.

"It was Gwen and Mia. I punched Gwen in the nose and Mia slammed me against the wall and I hit my head on the lockers." Kali explained holding the icepack to her head.

"Yeah I guess she broke Gwen's nose and Mia gave Kali a concussion." Angela added. "The principal was going to come and talk to her but I thought it would be better if we bolted out of there." She smiled up at her mom.

Kali and Angela gave her all the details and told her about the rest of their afternoon. "Well…" She said once they were all done explaining everything. "… I'm just glad that you're both ok. Do you need to lie down Kali?" She asked sweetly. This is why Kali always hung out at Angela's house because her mom didn't care what they did so long as they weren't doing anything incredibly stupid. "No!" She replied a little too loud.

Mrs. Santsaver gave her a strange look. "Ok dear just offering."

"Sorry I didn't mean to snap at you." Kali apologized. "I've been…" She thought of a proper explanation she'd understand and Angela eyed her. "… Having bad dreams."

"Oh I'm sorry to hear that. Do you need any Tylenol for your head before I start working on the garden?" She offered.

"No thanks, I'm good for now, just a little sore. Thanks for the icepack." Kali smiled at her.

"Alright well you know you can stay as long as you like." She kissed Angela on the forehead. "I'll be out front in the garden if you need me." And she disappeared out the side door.

They went back to Angela's room and challenged each other to several video games until they became bored with it. "I can't believe I got suspended within the last month of school! We graduate in two weeks! I hope I'm only suspended from the rest of this week." Kali grumbled.

"Yeah me too, school is going to be so boring without you. Jeremy is only in one class with me and same with Andy. Stupid fucking Mia, and I can't believe Monica today that was completely unlike her. She's such a little follower. They're all like a pack of idiot sheep…" Kali laughed at the last part. "They should be slaughtered like sheep then…" She smiled to herself as she pictured Freddy killing them in her head, Angela gave her a strange look. "Sorry… That was kinda fucked up to say."

"Yes, but hey you could really let him kill them. I mean why not? It's not like you're the one doing the killing." Angela smiled up at her.

"Wow you are way more insane than you lead people to believe… this is why you're my best friend." Kali hugged her. "I could never talk about half the things I do with you to Andy. He'd flip the fuck out."

"Haha yeah… he'd probably try and commit you." Kali raised and eyebrow at her and they both laughed.

Kali finally went home around seven since her Mom would already be at work by the time she got there. She dreaded her Mom getting home in the morning knowing she'd get yelled at for getting suspended. Walking down the hall she noticed that the light in Paige's room was on. "Paige?" Kali knocked on the door. "Come in."

She opened the door to see Paige sitting on her bed. Paige was Kali's older half-sister, they are related by their dad. He had had Paige already when he met Kali's mom from a previous marriage. They're only one year apart and they got along the best out of the four of them. She had long brown hair that went halfway down her back that was in layers and her green eyes stared up from her laptop at Kali. Her skin was tanned to perfection and her muscles were toned from being the head cheerleader for the past four years. She went to a different school than Kali, and graduated last year, she lived with her biological Mother and would come visit every so often.

"So I heard you broke Gwen's nose today at school. She probably deserved it. She was always a bitch to me when she used to come over." She got up from the bed and gave Kali a hug. "Who hit you in the head?"

"Mia slammed me into the wall and then I hit my head on the lockers… so is Mom pissed I got suspended?" Kali asked afraid of the answer.

"Nope, she has no clue. I was here when the principal called and pretended to be Mom. Because I love you!" She smiled and squeezed Kali's arm. "Really? Omg I totally love you! You're the best sister ever!" She hugged her tightly. "Ok Paige needs to breathe now…" Kali released her.

"Ok now since Mom doesn't know, you just need to stay away from the house around school hours. And you can go back to school on Monday they said." She explained as she turned off her laptop and set it on the nightstand. Kali nodded and pulled the sheets over Paige as she laid down in bed. "Goodnight little sister." Paige turned over in bed. "Want me to turn the light out for you?" Kali asked standing in the doorway. "Yes please. I'll probably see you tomorrow night. I have to get up early tomorrow."

"Ok G'night sister. See ya tomorrow." Kali turned the light off and clicked the door shut. As she entered her room she could hear Cindy protest going to bed. She sat in her computer chair and listened while she waited for her computer to turn on.

"But sissy I want to go with you! I don't want to stay here with Kali! She never plays with me and she's always gone just like Mommy! Please I can be your little house helper! I won't get in the way I promise!" She whined as Trudy dragged her down the hall to her room. "No Cindy! You need to stay here with Mom! You're too little and annoying!" Trudy yelled back at her. Then there was a loud piercing scream and the sound of Cindy collapsing on the floor having a fit. "Be quiet! Paige is trying to sleep!" Trudy warned.

"How about, both of you shut the hell up!" Paige screamed from her room. Cindy's cries became shorter and soon faded. Trudy's door slammed shut. Kali rolled her eyes and logged into her computer and started playing a game online to distract herself until she was sure Trudy was asleep. She also devised a plan on how to dispose of Trudy's body. The more she thought about the whole thing the more insane she felt.

What if he isn't real? Could it be someone else just fucking with her? If so who has that much knowledge of the dream world that knows her, besides Angela? She put it out of her mind and focused on listening to what Trudy was doing in her room. She could hear her put a movie on and decided she'd wait a little while longer.

Once she was bored with games on the computer she went and started reading fan fictions online. She was halfway through one when she heard something run past her window. She quickly got up from her computer chair and peeked out the window. In the moonlight she could see Cindy running across the front lawn with a large blanket and a small duffle bag. Was she running away?

Cindy opened up the back door to Trudy's truck, which was always unlocked, and threw her blanket and bag in then climbed in after them and quietly closed the door. Just then a horrible thought crossed Kali's mind. Why not bring him two souls instead of one?

Kali waited anxiously sitting on the front porch until she saw headlights park across the street. Angela quietly entered the house behind Kali. "I am so sorry you had to come all the way over here, but there is no way I can do this by myself." Kali whispered.

"Dude its ok. This is what friends are for. Helping friends get rid of bodies." She smiled a toothy grin at Kali as they entered her room. There were two syringes filled with some clear liquid sitting on her desk. Luckily for Kali her Mom always brought extra medical supplies home with her in case any of them got hurt or sick she wouldn't have to take them to the hospital and she could just take care of them at home. Kali had filled the syringes with a sedative and planned on injecting them into Trudy and Cindy just to be safe. The only part she needed help with was dragging Trudy to her car once she was sedated.

Kali grabbed both the syringes and as quietly as she could she entered Trudy's room and hovered over her sleeping form. She was curled up in a ball in her side with her back facing her. Kali uncapped the needle and quickly injected it into her neck pushing the plunger down all the way. She held her breath and stared down at her expecting her to wake up but she stayed still and her breathing remained slow. Exhaling loudly she capped the needle and handed the other syringe to Angela.

"You sure you want to be part of this?" Kali asked concerned.

"Yes, now stop being so damn paranoid." She whispered in response and headed out to Trudy's truck to sedate Cindy. Kali pulled the comforter off of Trudy and set it on the floor next to the bed and rolled her off of the bed onto it. She pulled her down the hall and into the living room and out the side door. Kali almost jumped when Angela put a hand on her shoulder before she began to help her pull Trudy across the dirt driveway.

"Damn she's heavy…" Angela whined.

"Is Cindy sedated?" Kali asked as they stopped at the truck's driver side door.

"Yeah she didn't even stir." She replied opening the door to the truck. They both took an arm and after almost dropping her several times they finally got her positioned into the drivers seat and buckled her seatbelt across her.

"Can I come in with you? I mean you're bringing him two people now instead of one, so he shouldn't come after me." Angela was hopeful as she shut the car door.

"Ang I really don't want to risk it. There's no telling what'll happen if I bring you in." Kali explained.

"I know… Just thought I'd ask." Angela frowned.

"You don't have to stay if you don't want to." Kali offered.

"No its ok, plus I don't wanna wait in anticipation all night and tomorrow wondering what happened." She explained.

"True…" Kali agree and jumped into the back of the truck followed by Angela and she laid down in the bed of the truck after shoving one of Trudy's over stuffed boxes of things out of her way. Angela sat next to her on top of one of the boxes. "So do you want me to wake you up or anything?"

"I don't know, if it seems like I need to be woken up then do it." She shrugged.

"Ok will do." Angela saluted her as she closed her eyes.

Freddy could feel Kali as soon as her eyes shut and she appeared in his bed. He read her thoughts. "So you're bringing me two, how generous of you." He smiled and sat on the bed next to Kali causing her to quickly get to her feet making him laugh knowing how uncomfortable he made her.

Kali gave him a strange look and he was suddenly in front of her with his bladed hand around her neck. "Bring me one." He commanded lifting her off the ground by her throat. She concentrated and could feel Trudy's presence and Freddy released her dropping her to the floor. He turned on his heels and Kali could see the strange vine classroom through the door. Trudy sat on top of a desk looking around confused.

Freddy scraped his blades along the wall smiling to himself as he anxiously made his way towards the classroom where his oblivious victim sat, completely unaware of the danger she was in.
