DAYUM, I've been really fucking absent for really fucking long! But thankfully, I'm back and I think I can make myself a recurring writer of this story more frequently(though how I managed to make this so is a long story, but I digress). It's once again time to have Freddy take a shot at a new, never before attacked target! And here's what's happening this time, although you probably found out at the end of the previous chapter, but still. Freddy's latest target, at least currently, anyhow, is none other than the rotten bully turned heroic dog Eddie McDowd! He's made his way into that universe, and means to see Eddie turned into a canine fur rug the instant he falls asleep. That he failed to butcher a boxer in the Tekken universe means that he's quite pissed off and ready for both a target that he can take it out on and a fresh kill. That he tortured and murdered(in that order)small animals to death before he became his sleep slasher self(and back when he was just a human kid, too! YIKES!)makes it so he'll see his intent of killing Eddie as the ideal, perfect and fitting way to bring back old memories. And that, thanks to Eddie and what he made sure to make happen over a somewhat lengthy period of time, everything is as it should be with the entirety of the world in which Eddie McDowd lives(even though, hilariously, he preferred to remain a talking dog, that status having grown on him), makes the irony of Freddy suddenly coming along and opening a whole new can of demonic worms most considerable. So, then. How's it going to go down, pray tell? Eddie might be talented, smart and driven, but is that going to prove sufficient to beat Freddy at his own game? Or is Freddy going to add a talking dog to his list of victims, past and present? Well, I'm pretty sure you want to know the answer, so find out for yourself by reading the chapter that follows this introduction!

THINGS TO NOTE:

This takes place at least three years after the series finale of 100 Deeds For Eddie McDowd.

I own none of the characters. They all belong to their respective franchises. And in the case of these characters and this franchise, they belong to Nickelodeon.

Freddy Krueger's Otherworldly Trips

Chapter 32-Eddie McDanger

Things ostensibly, as of late, were most favorable for the neighborhood that one Eddie McDowd lived in along with the world that contained it, and this also applied to Eddie McDowd himself in a way like you wouldn't believe.

You see, despite previously, back during the time he'd soon do his fortieth good deed, he got fed up and went back to his bad ways(though he was able to end this by selflessly aiding the Drifter and then did that fortieth good deed, but I digress), he decided that it was time to stop having lapses into badness again and clean up his act once and for all, no matter what it would require, how hard it would be and/or how long it would take.

Besides how this was most definitely and very obviously both a considerable maturation and step in the right direction on Eddie's part, and one that the Drifter was most proud of him for, especially since it showed considerable strength of character, ability to learn/see things as one should see them and intelligence, Eddie was able to, over the course of almost three years, perform the remaining sixty good deeds that he needed to if he wanted to become human again, and in the process cause every one of the world's problems to be undone and for the world, his neighborhood or otherwise, to become almost flawless(not quite, but close).

Yeah, not all of this was done by him directly, but his final sixty good deeds were and they led to what would happen to cause the end result I speak of(too much too go into, and too complicated and detailed to explain, but I digress once again).

There was, however, quite the irony to take place once the Drifter met up with him again, informed him of these things at the same time as using his powers to make them known to everyone else on the planet, which were to Eddie's surprise as much as everyone else's(with the exception of how Eddie was well aware of how he'd pulled off his last sixty good deeds along with everyone who knew him being aware of that, as well).

What was said irony, you ask? Well, Eddie had, during the time he was a dog prior to completing his task, eventually started to like being a dog instead of a kid. Sure, he was previously eager to become human again and ignored how being a dog had grown on him at first, but it had, much like, during the time he got his last sixty good deeds finished, he had grown on Gwen, who had hated him with a passion and was also often a mean bitch beforehand(though she now had matured somewhere along the way of that nigh-three year time period and showed more of her better side, plus wasn't bullying Justin as much, even if she still picked on him at times)and she had moments of petting Eddie and/or Eddie hugging her(but they hadn't reached the point of closeness yet).

This, along with the good times Eddie had enjoyed with Justin and how Eddie had now accepted and acknowledged how he actually was now happy to be a dog, with how it had increased in him and was therefore impossible to ignore, all combined to make it so that Eddie told the Drifter that he would stay good(and he would)in any form, but also admitted that he actually wished to stay a dog for all time, even though he never thought he'd hear himself say those words in any amount of eons.

This predictably surprised the Drifter, but he read Eddie's mind to make sure that this was actually how he felt and would continue to feel and not anything he'd realize he was actually wrong about, and then saw that it was indeed how he truly felt.

So the Drifter agreed that Eddie would remain a dog forever, to which Eddie wagged his tail(though he was amazed he'd grown to like being a dog at all, let alone so much that he'd ask for this sort of thing and then wag his tail when he was granted it), and also informed Eddie that he would make it so that everyone knew about how much he'd changed for the best and would stay that way, and also so that anyone and everyone he came across could hear him talk as much as Justin did beforehand as the only one who could(he still could, of course, but now he wasn't alone in terms of that status).

Plus, he got rid of all of Eddie's parasites, fleas or otherwise, and told Eddie that he would like them to keep in touch, since Eddie never knew when he and/or anyone else might need the Drifter, those he lived with or otherwise.

Eddie agreed to this and thanked the Drifter for the favors granted him, plus was glad that he at last completed his task, even as he preferred to stay a dog anyway, which he would. Much like was the case with the Drifter.

The Drifter also let Eddie know that there was a surprise waiting for him at home, right before he teleported Eddie there, and said surprise was something which Eddie was very happy about, indeed.

You see, after the girl who used to be a dog and someone he'd fallen for had become human again after her 100th good deed, kissed him goodbye after thanking him for being a good friend and walked away while he tried to talk to her but could only bark, since she couldn't hear him talk anymore now that he was human again, she had, after a good while, come to realize and accept that she liked being a dog more than she did being human.

So the Drifter, sensing this and turning her permanently back into a dog when he was able to tell it was exactly what she wanted, and forever, too, also discovered that she'd regained her feelings of love for Eddie, especially since, after leaving him as a human, she missed him increasingly, and Eddie surely would regain his own for her, especially after he no longer was smitten with Gigi after finally accepting her for the rotten, conniving little bitch that she was(on a level even worse than he once was, too, possibly, which is quite a statement!).

This had all happened just before Eddie had met up with the Drifter and informed him of what he really wanted despite how glad he was to have gotten his 100th good deed done. So it was perfect timing, even if quite by chance.

She would predictably be able to hear him talk again and vice versa, especially since she also was, again by the Drifter, given the gift when she became a dog again of everyone else being able to hear her talk despite how this wasn't the case before.

And, although Eddie had buried his feelings for her since after she left him, seemingly for keeps, he knew that they were still there deep down despite believing they would have to stay that way.

But not so. For the Drifter council had seen both Eddie's desire to remain a dog and the now remade back into a dog girl's desire for much the same as the truths of reality that they were and would stay, and the Drifter had now teleported Eddie back home. The home that had a new resident along with him and his owners now. How so?

Well, since that girl who Eddie once loved and vice versa became as she now was and would stay at the time she did, it should be no surprise that she needed a new home(especially since, in her realizing what she'd really wanted to be, she made damn sure of it that she severed all ties with her human life before she was more open about her true feelings, at which time the Drifter was prompted to change her back in the way that he did).

And after he turned her back into a dog, he made sure that she was teleported into the home of the ones who owned Eddie and she told them who she was and why she must have been teleported here at once.

Learning what they did, they offered to adopt her as their pet, and she agreed on the spot. She even let them know of her revitalized feelings for Eddie along with how much she had missed him, and they knew he'd been only too speechless and pleased when he saw her here as his housemate.

And furthermore, those who took a while to like Eddie a lot more previously took much less time to come to like her for many reasons(albeit to only a certain extent in Gwen's case, just like was the case with Eddie and her, but still).

So when Eddie appeared in the house and saw her right before him, he was indeed lost for words and his eyes opened widely in shock and astounded surprise(albeit in a good way)and after the she-dog told him everything he needed to know, he became ecstatic beyond words. They hugged each other and became romantic partners, for good this time.

That was all a short time back as the successor of that all but three year period, which brings us back to the current time/where we started this chapter. It seemed like life was the closest thing to being handed to him on a silver platter that it possibly could be, and he hadn't even had that in mind when he did all of his good deeds and made things the way they were now and, supposedly would forever stay, ironically enough.

And, in fact, it would have stayed that way but for one thing that lay ahead of Eddie even though neither he nor anyone else, his owners, his girlfriend or otherwise, knew it, let alone were ready for it. Just as his owners and his girl had gotten to sleep in their respective beds, he had all but fallen asleep in his, and, funnily enough, just after they'd drifted off to dreamland, he did much the same.

Immediately after he had dozed off and was sleeping like a log, though, his utopia-esque life was going to be cut off and halted most suddenly and abruptly. He saw that he wasn't in his house and the region thereof that he slept each night any longer. Instead, he was in what he could tell was a dark, nasty, eerie and downright evil parody of a dog pound. In fact, it looked like a dog pound that would make the one he lived in before being adopted by Justin look like heaven on Earth. Not surprisingly, he was suddenly quite afraid and spooked, even feeling his fur stand up everywhere and quaking with that sudden fear.

"Wh-where am I?" Eddie was able to squeeze from his throat, but barely. "I was in my house and my usual bed just a millisecond ago!" Suddenly, he saw countless hellhounds surrounding him, and he turned white everywhere instead of on just certain regions of his fur coat as he had not only spotted them, but also seen them start running at him the instant he did.

"Hey! Stay back! Back the hell off! Stay the fuck away from me!" he barked. "I don't know who the hell you all are other than umpteen hellhounds, or where you came from, but you need to keep the hell away from me!"

But they paid his words no heed and tackled him, making him go: "YEEAAAUUUGH!" as they did some biting, scratching, nose hitting and paw smacking, but it was only briefly that it happened, for then they tossed him into a cage that spontaneously opened. "UNNNNGGGHH!" Eddie yelled as he hit the back of that cage.

It closed and then opened again, making a loud noise in the process. "AAAAGH! Shit, that's loud!" Eddie cried. But, seeing it was open again, he at once zoomed towards the opening. The cage door slammed shut again, only this time it was when Eddie was halfway out.

"OOOOWWWWWWHHHHH!" Eddie howled, but though he fell onto his stomach on account of this, it did not close again, and despite how he had nearly had the wind knocked out of him, he was able to push himself back up, regain almost all of his strength and vitality and get the rest of the way out of there.

Even so, his troubles were far from over, as was the danger he was abruptly and spontaneously in. "What the fuck is this shit?" Eddie cried out, confused and bewildered as hell and unable to make anything of his seemingly arbitrary and inexplicable peril.

He also went on: "Will somebody, anybody, PLEASE tell me what's going on here?!" Just then, he both heard a villainous, sinister and frightening laugh that was followed by the words: "I'm what's going on here, fuzzy, and I made those hellhounds that just came out of those cages that I opened before they tackled you and tossed you into one of your own. In fact, I made this place and caused everything that happened in it, didn't ya know?" and saw a long, dark shadow looming over him.

And then, while shaking with fear even further, he looked up with frightened eyes to see the owner of that shadow standing right in front of him in all his glory. And that owner was the ever so horrifying, imaginative and nefarious Freddy Krueger. His jaw dropped, while Freddy's face wore a sinister, supercilious and sadistic smile.

Subsequently, Freddy said in a cruel and chilling tone of voice: "Hey there, Eddie. Are you ready for Freddy?" "Dear God!" Eddie exclaimed. "Holy shit! I've seen you in the horror movies I watched in my spare time back when I was human! You're Freddy Krueger! But how the hell is this fucking possible? You're fictional! You don't really exist!"

"Wrong, McDowd." Freddy told him. "Dead wrong, as a motherfucking matter of fact." He then flashed his glove, open bladed fingers and all, for emphasis. "I've recently fucking found a motherfucking means to travel from my own universe to one other universe or another, however I please. And I've been on a whole hell of a lot of fucking trips thus far. Too many to goddamn go into, especially since I'm not here to tell you any fucking stories. I'm here to turn you into dog meat!"

"Well, you won't do that, either, Krueger!" barked Eddie. "I've righted my fucking wrongs, set things fucking right with the fucking world and found the ideal life along with my fucking family and lady love, and I refuse to have anyone fucking it up, you or otherwise!" "If you really think you stand a ghost of a fucking chance against me, furface, let alone possess what it takes to vanquish me, I'd sure as hell like to see you try!"

"I'll do more than try! I'll succeed!" Eddie snapped. He ran towards Freddy, making sure to prepare for any attack that Freddy would perform, but suddenly Freddy vanished in a puff of thin air and smoke. "What the fuck?!" Eddie let out. "Come the fuck back here, Krueger! Where the fuck are you? Where did you go? Show yourself now, you fucking coward!" Right after he'd said that, though, Freddy reappeared behind him, also in a puff of thin air and smoke.

Following this, he said: "Ah, ah, ah! It's not at all smart to insult me like that, McDowd! It tends to bring out the worst in me, didn't ya know?" while wagging his left index finger. Just after he'd said this, Eddie, having gulped from suddenly hearing his voice, seeing his shadow and smelling his burnt body aroma, ignored how his eyes were wide open and his body was once again quaking(this time even worse than it had previously)in order to spin around and slash Freddy down the frontal torso with his claws.

"Well, you brought that same kind of fucking shit the fuck out in me, you bastard of a fucking asshole!" snarled Eddie as Freddy yowled: "YEEEEAAAAAAARRRRRGGGHHH!" Eddie added on while ramming Freddy with one of his shoulders: "And we dogs may not have as sharp a set of claws as cats do, but those claws of ours are still plenty capable of cutting flesh! And our teeth are even better at that!"

He wasted no time in biting Freddy hard on his family jewels, which resulted in Freddy going out: "E-RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHH!" Eddie also shook his head this way and that as much as he could to add to the damage, but Freddy wasn't finished yet. For, despite how he screamed: "NNNNNNNNNNGGGGGHHHHHHHAAAAUUUUUGGGHHH!" as it happened, he struck back via slashing Eddie down the back with the blades on his glove's fingers. Eddie howled out: "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHH!"

Backing away and trying to maintain clear vision due to the sudden pain, bleeding and damage, Eddie would then hear Freddy say: "Thought you fucking had me nailed, did you, flea factory? Believed yourself to have turned my own shit against me and gotten me trapped, did you, flea factory? Had the impression that you were getting out of here alive after putting a stop to me, did you, flea factory? Well, no such luck, so tough shit, you doggone son of a bitch! Sorry to be so sharp with you, but you need to back off! Oh, and by the way, did I mention that I keep calling your ass a fucking flea factory for a reason?"

Eddie, finally getting over the pain he felt from his wound enough to get ready for Freddy again and therefore fight on, faced his dream demon opponent, only to see what looked like the shadow of a gigantic flea looming over him. Freddy continued as Eddie got startled and spun the fuck around to see the owner of that shadow, becoming even more alarmed in the process: "Yeah, I know that you dogs and fleas don't mix or get along at all! And you can be certain that flea baths, flea collars, anti-flea medicines and the like don't mean shit to this guy! Bet this is one situation that's really going to bug you, especially since this economy sized flea obeys me and me alone!"

Freddy cackled before adding in: "Not to mention that he's not going to bother sucking your blood until you die! After all, who the hell needs to do that when he can just kick you about with his giant legs?!" The huge flea then tried to kick and/or stomp on Eddie repeatedly, but even though Eddie managed to dodge these at first, the flea nailed him with a lucky stomp eventually and, just after Eddie let out a cry of pain from it, booted Eddie with a kick from one leg after the other as it went towards him, Eddie going: "OOOOOOOF! UNNNNNNNHHH! OOOOWWWW! AAAARRRRRGGGHHH! NNNNNGGGHHH! AAAAAGGHHHH! UUUUHHHHH!"

Just after Eddie was bruised and battered badly, Freddy made the flea disappear, following that action with the words: "Ha, ha, ha! You can't FLEA from your fate, and you can be certain that tomorrow will be remembered for having a morning that led to a dog death afternoon! But don't think I'm going to make it as easy as dying right then and there for you, McDowd! Oh, no! I'm just getting started here!"

He laughed evilly as an extremely agonized and injured Eddie just barely managed to push himself back up to his feet. In addition, he said: "OOOOOOH, a persistent one, are you? Defiant to the end, eh? I like that, but it won't do you any good! Especially since I'm a bigger bully than you used to be, and have a lot more power, too!"

"Wanna bet, Krueger?!" Eddie managed to snap before rolling himself into a ball and making it so that he rolled towards Freddy and knocked him off his feet and forward so that he fell onto his face. "OOOWWWWWWW! WHUMMMMMMMPPPPFFFFF!" Freddy said as, respectively, he was nailed in the ankles and landed onto the floor hard after flying forward. Eddie got himself back up into a standing upright position, doing everything he could not to let the agonizing shape that his body was in stop him. He would not succumb. Especially when his life was in danger and, possibly, the same would go for his entire neighborhood and world alike. The only way to avert this was to take Freddy out, and he knew it.

Freddy pushed himself back up and turned to look at his canine foe, telling him: "My, my, Eddie, you are one tenacious dog!" "More like elevenacious, asshole!" spat Eddie nastily. "Well, be that as it may, it won't help you!" Freddy sneered. "Indeed, it will avail you not, and especially now that you've really pissed me off!"

He started making sticks, bones, Frisbees and tennis balls form out of thin air and fly at Eddie, and although Eddie was able to move so that he evaded some of them, others hit and battered him. "OOOOWWWW! GYAAAAAAGGHH! DDAAAAAAAHHHHH! YAAAAAAARRRRHHHH!" Eddie yelled out. "OOOOOOH, I had no idea you could still dodge things in your current condition!" Freddy mocked him.

Freddy then further mocked him when he said: "Isn't it, then, one hell of a doggone shame that it's not going to stop me from sticking it to you, and no bones about it? You've got balls, to be sure, but I've got even more balls! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I also should tell you that my Frisbees were to indicate how you'll soon be deader than disco, and I can only imagine how much your friends and owners are going to be BALL-ing when they see your mutilated corpse, by the way!" Eddie's eyes flew open as widely as they would go and he was suddenly still. He then looked directly at Freddy as his fear was replaced by rage.

While the incalculable amount of fury that was suddenly present in him increased by the second, Eddie snarled: "YOU. DID. NOT. JUST. BRING. MY. FRIENDS. AND. OWNERS. INTO. THIS. YOU. CUNT. LICKING. SON. OF. A. FUCKED. UP. BITCH!" "Sure I did!" Freddy leered. "And I should also motherfucking mention that your bitch of a love interest will be crying the hardest, both for that reason and how I'm goddamn going to damn well rape her after she's cried herself to sleep! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…WHOAAAAAA!"

The last one came from how Freddy suddenly saw Eddie charging at him like there was no tomorrow, which, ironically, there wouldn't be if Eddie didn't survive his dream. But that was hardly on Eddie's mind right now. After all, he just wanted to beat the fucking shit out of Freddy and finish his sorry ass the fuck off, and in the process of so doing cause his sleep slasher of a villainous tormentor as much pain as he could. And he managed to at least do the first and third things mentioned, landing paw blow after paw blow, muzzle hit after muzzle hit, bite after bite, claw slash after claw slash, onto every square inch of Freddy within his reach.

Freddy didn't even have the time to scream, yell, shout, howl, bellow or anything similar at all, as Eddie's attacks happened too fast, too frequently and in too many places in his body per second. "THREATEN MY FUCKING FAMILY AND MY FUCKING FRIENDS, AND THEN MY FUCKING GIRL ON TOP OF THAT, WILL YOU, YOU COCK-JUGGLING ASSHOLE OF A PIG HUMPING THUNDERCUNT PIECE OF SHIT?! WELL, FUCK YOU, YOU ASSFUCKING MOTHERFUCKER OF A CUNT LICKING SON OF A BITCH BASTARD MONSTER MOTHERFUCK PRICK BITCH-ASS! I AM GOING TO FUCK YOU UP AND SHIT YOU OUT IN THAT ORDER RIGHT BEFORE I SEND YOUR SORRY ASS THE FUCK TO HELL, AND THERE ISN'T SHIT THAT YOU CAN DO TO FUCKING STOP ME! YOU WILL NEVER FUCKING TERRORIZE ANYONE IN ANY FUCKING UNIVERSE AGAIN! YOU HEAR ME, YOU FUCKING PIECE OF FUCKING FUCK OF A CHICKENSHIT MOTHERFUCKER?!"

All of a sudden, though, despite how Eddie really had the advantage and upper hand(or should I say upper paw?)here and his raging, burning, livid fury was making him more than able to perform such a barrage of attacks as he was dishing out despite his injuries, Freddy made a very sudden and quick but nonetheless effective move that enabled to him make a comeback on Eddie which would tilt the odds back in his favor.

That move was that he formed a very giant net out of his trademark glove(a net that, while mostly looking like a regular handheld net, was only that way with its stick and round wooden part, with the net itself being, in material, identical to a Predator net like would come out of a Yautja's net gun, as you might have seen in the Predator movies)and made it catch Eddie as he used his powers to get the driven-berserk dog off of him and into the air before releasing their hold on him so he'd drop into the net.

"WHAAAAAAAA?" Eddie let out. "Huh? What the fuck is this shit?" But after he had landed in the net, the barbs on bit caused him to screech: "YEEEEOOOOOWWWWWWW!" And, before he had a chance to jump out, Freddy sealed the opening of the net shut with an unbreakable cover. He spoke afterwards: "Man, you almost fucking had me there, beef bone breath!" and simultaneously got back up to his feet. "But I'm the one with the dreamland superpowers, fast healing abilities, creative imagination and claw glove, and you're not!"

He'd add on right after that while seeing Eddie struggling and desperately trying to find a way out of the net: "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! It's a net that's modeled off of the ones used by Predators in the movies they're featured in, and I've made it indestructible as much as the cover on the top that further ensures you stay trapped! Don't even bother!"

He further derided Eddie by telling him: "Even though it looked as if you could win and, would, in fact, do just that for a time, the net result was my capturing and trapping your ass in a way that would mean certain doom for you! And I can assure you that the way you will now fucking die will be nothing short of painful! This net will close on you and you'll fall through it via being cut up vertically and horizontally alike for a while, and by the time it's over and you're out of this net, it'll be when you're just a pile of bloody meat chunks! I can be such a cut-up, ya know? FWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

But, the way that it looked as if it was now the end for Eddie notwithstanding, especially given the new cuts to go with his other bodily damages of before that he got from being in this net that made it so that he was approaching death, luck turned from being in Freddy's favor to being in Eddie's favor, because before he could take damage and/or lose blood to the point where there was no helping him and that he was unquestionably a goner, Eddie woke up to see Justin, Gwen, Lisa and Doug, along with his lady love, surrounding him.

"Huh?! What the hell?!" Eddie exclaimed. "What are you guys doing here? Not that you're not a fucking sight for sore eyes, but what the fuck happened to that goddamn dog pound death house that I was in?! And where the hell did Krueger go, for that matter?" "Huh? What are you talking about, Eddie?" asked Justin, as confused as the others were. "Yeah! You're right here in this house in the bed you always sleep in!" Lisa put in. "But it's covered in blood for some reason!" Doug stated.

"You were making so much noise that we were all awoken and came to see what was going on with you! Was it some kind of dream?" Justin put across. "And why the fuck did it result in your being so injured and bleeding as you are? How the fuck is that shit even fucking possible!" Gwen let out. Suddenly, though, it hit her.

"Wait a second…" Gwen said, observing her talking pet's wounds, injuries, bruises, what have you, and keeping in mind the name that he'd mentioned. "You said Krueger…you mean FREDDY Krueger?"

"Yeah, I mean Freddy Krueger!" Eddie snapped. "Didn't these slash wounds and nasty injuries, most of which are making me bleed a lot, tip you off?" "Whoa, Eddie!" his female dog love interest told him. "No need to get so goddamned defensive! What the fuck is that shit for?"

"Sorry, sorry…" Eddie said, doing his best to calm himself down. "It's nothing personal with any of you. It's just that…let's face it. When you've nearly lost your fucking life after being attacked by a well done, knife clawed, humanoid demon asshole who takes you into a dark-ass parody of a dog pound the instant you fucking fall asleep and wake up with injuries and wounds galore, you're not going to be in your best mood, now are you?"

"Okay, you do have a point…" conceded Lisa, speaking for herself and the others who Eddie had made his post-apology explanation clear to. "Still, we know you're scared out of your skull, and rightfully so, plus that it took a lot of effort to calm yourself to the extent that you could, but you've got to keep a grip and stay as calm as possible. This is no small problem and it would still be the big-ass fucking problem it is even if you weren't horrendously and seriously injured." Doug said firmly.

Eddie nodded, and then Justin said: "By the way, I haven't seen the Nightmare On Elm Street movies like my sister here has…" He motioned his head to Gwen for emphasis, then turned back to Eddie, "…but I have heard of them and she's talked about them a lot, so I know who Freddy Krueger is and what's going on here. But how can he have suddenly turned real?! He's a fictional character!"

"Yeah, but that doesn't fucking seem to be the fucking case anymore for some fucked-up reason, now does it?!" Gwen put across. "But Justin thankfully knows who he is and what he can do, and I know about such things even more than he does, having actually watched the movies instead of having just heard about them." Eddie commented after Gwen had finished her commenting: "And when I was human, I saw those films, too, so I know the character and what makes him so famous and scary."

"Glad to hear it, you three, because everyone here has to know as much about that monster as possible, since despite how this world had recently become the closest thing to perfect it could be up until this point, we now have a brand new and whole different, plus, as Doug said, very big, problem on our hands, or, in certain cases, paws." Lisa stated. "But we have to take things one fucking step at a time." Eddie's girlfriend pointed out. "First of all, we have to go to a vet at once and get my love's wounds and injuries treated as best they can be."

"Yeah, I hate to admit it, but I have a feeling that, over a period of time, I'll die if they aren't." Eddie put in. "So, as much as I hate having to go to the vet, much like a lot of dogs or cats or other pets do, I can't deny or ignore that it's got to happen, and as soon as possible, too."

"Brave and smart alike, Eddie." Justin told him. "Although it doesn't surprise me he'd be able to admit that." Gwen spoke. "After all, if he can withstand the pain of what Freddy did to him and still be able to talk, think and see, plus function well enough so that he's still got a chance to survive, he can deal with whatever the vet's got to do in order to save his life."

"Maybe so, but let's get to it now. We have no time to waste." Eddie's love partner put across. "Of course. We've also goddamn got to motherfucking make sure that, one way or the other, we find out how the fuck Freddy managed to make himself real despite how he was fictional before." Doug said, speaking for himself and all others present, and after everyone else present nodded in agreement, he knelt down to pick Eddie up as gently as possible, though Eddie inevitably felt some pain due to his hideously damaged and bleeding current state and was unable to help but make some noises because of it, even if he tried his best not to and also attempted to ignore how it felt.

Once Eddie was picked up, everyone else made their way to Doug's car and played a part in opening it up while Doug placed Eddie into the trunk along with his lady(since the others had to occupy the back or front seats, plus Eddie being only with his girl might help both of them out for the time that it could)and then closing the doors.

During the time they went outside, Eddie pointed out: "By the way, I agreed to keep in touch with the Drifter just in case one or more of us would need him in the future the last time I saw him. I think it's very safe to say this is a time we all need him, so if one or more of us can, let's find him and let him know what's going on all of a sudden the instant we get the chance to."

"Good thinking, and excellent idea!" Justin put across to his dog. "Especially since he's got the sort of powers that allow him to do anything he wants, not to mention access to the Drifter council, so he, and, most likely, they, would be perfect to help us combat Krueger, especially since they've got similar powers to the ones he's got in dreamland!"

"Bingo, Justin!" Eddie said to the owner who'd been able to hear him talk longer than anyone else present except for his girlfriend(though before they reunited, she only heard him talk and vice versa for the brief period of time they knew each other and no longer could when human again and only could again when she got turned back into a dog, so Justin actually still qualified as the one who'd been able to hear him talk longer than anyone else present). Just at that moment, they had gotten to the car, so it was time for everyone to get in so that they could get to the vet.

Doug started up the car and they were on their way to the vet. Eddie's girl said to him as they were on their way there: "By the way, Eddie?" "Yeah?" Eddie asked in response. His dog love then told him: "While we're on our way to the animal hospital one or both of us goes to when we need to, you need to tell me everything that happened from when you fell asleep to when we shook you awake. Our owners will hear us from the front and back seats as you tell me in here, and they'll know it along with me. The vet has to know as well, since this new problem will no doubt concern everyone despite how only you were attacked this time."

"Of course." Eddie agreed. "Since Freddy didn't quite get me in his first attempt here, he'll undoubtedly come back to this universe to try and kill me again and/or attack one or more new targets, human and/or animal alike." "My point exactly. We just don't know when." let out Eddie's girl.

So Eddie began explaining what happened from start to finish, and while he did so, a peeved as the dickens Freddy Krueger went back to the dreamland throne of his regular and original universe, kicking the first thing he saw, which was a piece of metal lying in front of him, and as it flew the fuck into a wall, he went into a short but powerful vent.

"FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK! I WAS SO FUCKING CLOSE! So fucking close! I tripped at the fucking finish line! Why? It wasn't out of bad luck with my victim all of a sudden waking up by chance at the last motherfucking moment like has been the fucking case before! Oh, dear me God, no! Hell no! Fuck no! It was because stupid McDowd just had to yowl and scream and thrash about and fight back, the most he did of it or otherwise, while asleep loudly enough and often enough so that it woke up his fucking family and goddamn girlfriend and made it so that they were able to goddamn get to where he was in the real, waking world and fucking shake his ass the fuck awake just in fucking time! Asshole dog douchebag! Fuckhole pooch prick! Shithole canine cunt!"

Freddy would go over and sit into his throne while cooling off and calming down, then he said: "Still, I would unquestionably have made a fucking corpse out of that motherfucking mutt motherfucker otherwise, regardless of how much he managed to hold his own against me by what was his dumb luck until he ran the fuck out of it and I had him trapped and nailed. Not to mention that I've got plenty more visits to make to other universes, visited before or for the first time, and I'll find the time and mood to pay another visit to that universe I just left. You survived once, McDowd. You will NOT survive twice. So the next time we meet is also gonna be the last. Of that you can be very sure indeed, mark my words and make no mistake whatsoever."

Freddy, after deciding it was now time for him to take his next trip, left his throne, went up to his orb and then said after picking it up: "Orb, it's time for the next performance of showing me my destination and also pointing out who my target will be. Do what you're best suited to doing."

The orb did what he told it to, and when it had finished, Freddy said: "Ah, I see that it's time for me to take my first trip to the universe of the Extreme Dinosaurs! And take it I will, especially since I've just learned at the same time that the one I'm going after now is the anthropomorphic Ankylosaurus who goes by the name of Hard Rock! Soon, though, he's going to have to change his name to Hard LUCK, the way that I'm sending his ass, or is that his tail, to the grave as well as extinction! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! It's time for Ankylosaurus to become An-KILL-osaurus! HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

He commanded his orb once he'd put it back in place: "All right, my orb to order! My target did you just show, now you need to give me the means to go!" And give him the means to go it did, with Freddy seeing his portal to take him to the Extreme Dinosaurs universe, right into Hard Rock's dream, in less than a second.

Would Hard Rock indeed be doomed to extinction after Freddy invaded his dream and saw to it that he'd have an anything but good night's sleep? Or would good fortune be on his side soon enough to make it so that he woke up as his living self and not as a corpse, no matter how long it took to get that way? You'll see the answer to that when you've gone to the next chapter, and this is where this one ends!

END OF CHAPTER 32

Do tell, was this indeed as fun a read as I had aimed for it to be? Yeah, look at how things are for poor Eddie just now/all of a sudden. He manages to complete all his good deeds and do more beyond them, even if he does decide to stay a dog because he's come to like it, and he's got everything he could want along with how his owners, friends and family do along with their families(not to mention how all is as it needs to be with the neighborhood and world alike), only to discover a brand new and, in this case, almost lethal problem in the form of Frederick Charles Krueger! That Freddy might well go after him again and/or go for one of his family, friends and/or owners only worsens it, as does the fact that that same Freddy had, prior to becoming the monster he is now/when he was just human, started his evil and murderous ways by killing small animals in one horrible fashion or another! So he obviously will have no problem with, and, in fact, enjoy, seeing Eddie butchered if he gets another chance and is the one who luck favors instead of Eddie if that chance does, in fact, come his way! Will Eddie, those closest to him and/or the rest of the neighborhood, the Drifter or otherwise, be able to find a way to counter and vanquish Freddy if(and probably when)the sleep slasher returns to this universe? Or will Freddy do even better than before and see multiple lives ended, and none too gently or quickly? We'll know in the future, but for the time being, we're concentrating on how Freddy will next be taking his first fucking trip to the Extreme Dinosaurs universe, and this time, he's going after the mutant Ankylosaurus who goes by the name of Hard Rock. He means to make fossilize him and, in the process of making a mangled, blood-flooding corpse out of him in the nastiest and most ironic way imaginable(you'll find out just how so when you read the chapter which follows this one!), cause him to suffer his own personal extinction. Is the Ankylosaur ally of the Extreme Team who I speak of going to survive the night in which he's paid a visit by the one and only Freddy Krueger? Or will the Extreme Dinosaurs be minus one close friends and comrade, and graphically so, in an over-the-top kind of way? You'll learn the fucking answer only if you check out the chapter after this one, and speaking of this one, please give it ratings and reviews alike, if you will!
