hey guys. remember me? i kno, its been waaaaaaaay too long, and i'm truly sorry. i've had a LOT of stuff going on, but maybe now i can make regular updates :)
so i was looking at my stories today and it turns out i skipped chapter 8! the chapter 8 that's been up is really chapter 9! so now, i present to you, the long, lost, REAL chapter 8! with disclaimers, of course!

"Where are we going?" Kagome asked as Inuyasha sped away from the school. "Hell if I know." he muttered, driving like one would in a street racing video game. "Too pissed to think."

"Well, before you get us killed, could you drop me off at home?" she asked. He grunted in reply, and sped towards Kagome's house, reaching it in record time.

Climbing out of the car, Kagome said, "Inuyasha, please, drive safe. You don't need any more trouble from the police." When he didn't answer, she added, "Promise?"

"Fine." he gave in. "See you later." He sped off then, his speed slightly lower than before.

Now to find out what Mom really knows. Kagome thought as she reached the door. When she opened it, her mother was dusting. She gave Kagome a surprised look.

"Kagome, you're home early." "You lied to me." she quickly snapped. "You lied about Fred Krueger. Don't try to lie again. I heard the story."

Her mom sighed. "Yes, Mr. Taisho told me. I know you thought it was wrong, but it was for your own protection. You have to understand."

"All I understand is that you killed a man, and now he's trying to kill me because of it!" she yelled. "Kagome, they're just dreams!" her mother let the words sink in. "They're not real, Kagome."

Kagome turned to leave the house. "Tell that to Hojo and Yuka." With that, Kagome left.

She got in her car, pulled out of the driveway, and her phone went off. Despite the many warnings you hear, she opened the text from Sango. Hey Kagome. U out of school too? Looking back and forth between the phone and the road, Kagome texted back, Ya. Mind if I come over? As she turned onto Sango's street, she got a text that read, C u soon.

Before Kagome could knock, Sango pulled the door open. "Hey." she said, offering her friend in. Kagome muttered 'hey' in reply as she entered the house.

Kagome followed Sango into her room. They sat on the bed, and Kagome started crying. "I can't believe Yuka's gone."

"I know." Sango replied, dropping her gaze. "First Hojo, now her. When's it gonna stop?" She stood and walked to her window. "I mean, anyone could be next. Whoever's doing this has already killed two people. Could it possibly be someone we know? I mean, the killer's only killing the kids, not their parents. And from what I hear, the police can't find any evidence to who did it! Whoever's doing this must've been planning it for a long time."

"Open your eyes, Sango!" Kagome yelled. "It's obvious who's doing this!" When Sango gave her a confused look, she sighed and continued. "We start having dreams about someone who's trying to kill us. When he hurts us, we wake up with our cuts. And now, our friends are mysteriously dying in their sleep!"

"Kagome, you know how crazy that sounds?" Sango asked. "Yes, I know it's crazy. I wouldn't even believe it if I hadn't seen it myself. You have too, Sango! The cuts on your arm-" "Those could've been caused by anything!" Sango cut her off. "We were drunk. Between the four of us, we can't even remember all of what happened! For all we know, a freaking bear could have done that!"

Both the girls sighed. "Kagome, I don't want to fight." Sango said. "We'll talk about it later. In the meantime, do you still want that party tonight?" Kagome was about to answer 'no' when her phone started ringing. She quickly answered after seeing Inuyasha's name appear on the screen.

"Hi." she said. "Hey, Kagome, quick question. Are you still going to that party at Sango's tonight?" Perfect timing. she thought. "Probably not." she answered. "Why not?" Inuyasha asked.

"Why not? Inuyasha, two of our friends died recently. I'm not really in a party mood." "But think about it. Isn't a fun party what you need? Just something to get away from it all for a night?"

Kagome sighed. "If you wanna go that bad, fine, Inuyasha. The party's on." Sango squealed as Inuyasha replied, "Sweet. By the way, I was asking for you." "Sure. I'm sure the vodka in the fridge has nothing to do with it." "Sango has vodka in her fridge?" "Bye, Inuyasha.

Kagome flipped her phone shut, and Sango got excited. "This'll be great, Kagome. You won't be disappointed!" Kagome stood and stretched. "I think I'm gonna go home for a bit. I'll be back later. What time should I come?"

"I should have everything ready at around seven-thirty." Sango answered. They exchanged goodbyes, and Kagome left.

He saw the girls' conversation and couldn't help but laugh to himself. Those idiots are clueless. he thought. At least one of those stupid kids will get drunk enough to pass out. Then the fun can really begin. He rubbed two of his blades together, eager cover them with blood. Freddy let out another chuckle.

so? after almost a year without updating, did i make a pretty good comeback? let me kno! i'll be re-posting chapter 9 shortly, but while ur waiting on me, you should leave a review :) until next time (which i promise won't be as bad as last time), laters!
