Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note or A Nightmare On Elm Street

L's POV

Light and I arrived at the house at about one in the morning. We then stayed up until midnight trying to find something that would connect someone on this street to the murders. Unfortunately we got nowhere so Light decided we should just go to sleep I was against but I let him go to sleep. I soon came across a very interesting file. It was someone named Freddy Krueger. He was a child murderer but he was released on a technicality. The place where he operated from was burned down, his remains were found. He's the most likely person that would be doing this, except the nightmares that was different from the way he operated. But the cuts on the victim's bodies look like they could have come from the claw-like weapon he used. It's most likely a killer that copied his weapon because of some twisted form of admiration. The fact that he didn't copy Freddy exactly is probably because there was something that made him only look up to him to a certain extent. It's probably just a coincidence but it's worth looking into.

Light's POV

I woke up in a field; I had no idea what was going on. The field was circular with trees surrounding it. I stood up and stared dumbly across the field. I didn't know what was going on. I was scared. I heard a soft sound like knives scraping across tree bark. No I'm just being paranoid. Footsteps. I heard footsteps. That was real I don't know about the other sound but that was real. I turned around and I prayed that I was hearing things.

I saw a man across the field. But he wasn't any man his face was covered in dark spots like he had been burned. He had a green and red striped sweater on. He was wearing a brown fedora. But what really caught my eye was his right hand. There was a glove on it with knives extending from each finger, except his thumb. I have never been so scared in my entire life, even when I saw the shinigami. My mouth was dry with horror I couldn't speak. My arms hung limply at my sides. I could feel my legs trembling like it took so much just to stay standing. I wanted to just collapse there but I knew I couldn't, I am a detective. I knew L wouldn't give up; he would make a phone call and have the entire army here to save him. He wouldn't be scared.

"Light Yagami." He said. I couldn't talk to ask him how he knew my name.

"My name is Freddy Krueger." He said. Why would he tell me his name?

"Now you can kill me." He said with the faintest hint of joy in his voice.

"With the death note." How did he know about the death note? Who is this guy? How does he know how Kira killed?

"Lying to the world." What is he talking about?

"Lying to yourself. Like a memory that's so horrible you don't remember it. " What does he mean?

"I gotta say why criminals? People like me we aren't really bad, but they are monsters they're the real bad guys." The word they was dripping with hatred and disgust.

"Then there's the police officers, and the detectives who stop people like me. Then there's your partner, someone who will put criminals lives on the line to stop killings. Then we come to the worst of the bunch you, someone who will kill criminals himself so people won't be killed." What is he talking about I'm not Kira I don't kill.

"You and your friend should've stayed away from this case. I'll kill you and him." Oh god I'm gonna die! I need to run away, but my legs won't move.

One, Two, Freddy's Coming for You

What was that? It sounded like children chanting. He stepped closer. As soon as his foot hit the ground I felt adrenaline rush through my body and I ran away as fast as I could. I ran into the woods surrounding the field.

Three, Four, Better Lock Your Door

I jumped over fallen logs I felt the tree branches cut my hands and my arms but I didn't care.

Five, Six, Grab a Crucifix

I changed direction from time to time so it would be harder for him to follow me. I ran until I couldn't run anymore.

Seven, Eight, Gonna Stay up Late

I stopped behind a tree breathing hard. I tried to make as little noise as possible especially since my voice came back.

Nine, Ten,

I looked up and there he was.

Never Sleep Again
