Chapter 2

Alison's eyes flew open. She sat up in her bed, sweating terribly. "BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!" She looked over at her alarm clock. She reached over and turned it off. She got out of her bed and walked to the bathroom. When she was in there, she looked in the mirror. "I look a mess!" she thought. She started brushing her hair. Once she was done with that she went back to her room and threw on a clean shirt, some pants, and socks. She glanced at the clock. "9:58. They should be here any minute now." She put on her shoes and ran downstairs. She was in charge of brining the beer, so she grabbed the two packs of Bud Light she had hidden from her parents. Then she sat outside on the porch and waited for them.

At about 10:17 Alison heard a truck pull into the driveway. She looked up and saw Jack Hasket's red Chevy pick-up truck pulling in. She ran to his window, and set the beers down on the ground. "Where the hell have you guys been?" she yelled. She gave Jack a playful shove. "We had a little trouble getting Mr. Lazy Ass out of bed." He pointed at Cody Johnson, Alison's boyfriend. "I was taking my beauty nap, it's hard work to stay this beautiful!" he protested.. "Yeah, your just jealous. Trying to look as good as me, even though you'll never come close." Jack said. "Yeah, you wish Jack." Alison said. "Thank you very much Alice." Cody said. "Alright, enough talk, we gotta be there in 20 minutes, or else we might miss some of the movie! So hop in the back Alice." Jack said. "Yes, sir!" she did a two finger salute, and jumped in the back of the truck. The backed up and started towards the theater. Sitting back there with Alison were five other people, ones she knew. There was Nikki Watson, Crystal Cottonwood, Jackie Flowermen, Kyle Clover, and Doug Clover. "Hey Alice, did you bring the beer?" Nikki said. Alison held up the two 24 packs of Bud Light. "Nice choice of merchandise!" "Mind throwing me one?" Nikki said. "You wait till' we get there, then you can have all the beer you want." Alison said. "Just don't get to drunk and go insane like last week." "OK I won't." Nikki said sarcastically. She winked at Alison. "Nikki..." Alison said, wagging her finger. "OK 'mom' I promise I'll be good." She smiled and gave Alison a kiss on her cheek. "Hey, save some kisses for me!" Cody yelled from the front of the truck. "I don't want her all kissed out before I finally get to her!" They all talked for about ten more minutes, until Jack finally shouted, "OK we're here! Hide the beer!" Alison hid the two packs of beer behind her back. Jack pulled into the Springwood Drive-In Theater. He pulled up front to get the channel the movie was on, and where he had to park. "How many and how old?" asked the lady from inside. Her name tag said, Mellisa. "Theres eight of us, and we're all 18." Jack told her. "Can I see your driver's license, please?" she asked him. "Sure here ya go." Mellisa looked at it carefully, making sure it wasn't fake, then handed it back to him. Then, she told him where to park, and what channel the movie was on. Jack pulled his truck up where she told him. They all went to the 'Concession Stand' in the middle of all the screens, there were at least four of them. They went to the bathroom, got snacks and popcorn, and the people who didn't drink beer got pops, and that was only Alison and Jackie. Then they went back out to the truck, got a blanket, and layed it in the grass. They put all their stuff on it, then sat on it themselves. Jack turned his radio up nearly all the way. The movie previews started. "What is this movie called again?" Alison asked Jackie. "Attack of the... um... I can't remember. Sorry." "It's okay. We'll probably figure it out as the movie goes on. After the previews were over, the title of the movie came up on the screen. It said, Attack of the Wolfman!" "Oh, it's called "Attack of the Wolfman." Alison said to herself. "It sound pretty good." After a while, everyone else was getting drunk and swaying around, and laughing , and having a great time. But, then about halfway through the movie, Alison started feeling tired again. "How could I be tired? I just took an hour nap!" she tried to stay awake, but she couldn't help it. Her eyelids got heavier, and then she felt herself drift into sleep.

Alison's eyes opened slowly. She was dreaming, she could tell. She stood up to see where she was, and in front of her was a house. On the house, she saw numbers by the door that said 1428. She looked down the street and saw a sign. The sign said Elm Street. 1428 Elm Street. That's the house she lived next door to. It gave her the creeps every time she looked at it. Suddenly, she heard girls singing, just like she did in her other dream. She turned back towards the house, and saw the three little girls. Two were holding a jump rope, and the third was jumping over it. They were singing the same song:

"One, Two, Freddy's coming for you, Three, Four, Better lock your door, Five Six, Grab your crucifix, Seven, Eight, Gonna stay up late, Nine, Ten, Never sleep again."

Then, Alison heard a creaking noise. She noticed it was the door to the house, it was opening. In the doorway stood a man. Since he was dark she couldn't tell what he looked like. But, she did know that he was wearing a hat, and it looked like he had some kind of claws on his right hand. "Who are you?" she asked him, trying to hide the fear in her voice. "Bitch, are you fucking stupid, or you just don't listen? I told you who I am, did I not?" His harsh words hit her like a rock. Then she remembered, in her last dream a voice, a man's voice, said "I am Freddy." "His names Freddy." she told herself. "That's right, bitch. Freddy Krueger to be exact." "It's like he can read my mind!" "I can read your mind Alison." I know everything about you." "How can you read my mind?" she said. "I can do whatever I want in the Dream World. It is my realm!" "And, what do you want?" she asked him, this time her voice shook. "Oh, my dear," he said, almost in a soothing voice. "All I want, is you!" In an instant he disappeared. Then he reappeared, less than three inches away from her. His clawed hand ran through her hair. Over her cheek, down her throat, and towards her chest. She jumped back, and when she did, his one of his finger-knives cut her, right above her chest. Pain shot up to her neck."That was a close one, he almost cut my throat!" "Yes I almost did, you're very lucky I didn't." he said, once again reading her mind, her private thoughts. He raised his gloved hand once more, and cut her chest with all four blades. She groaned in agony. Then she look at her hand, they were almost translucent, she was fading away. "For now my dear." Freddy said. "Our little visit is over. See ya real soon!"
