Author's Note: Woooo! Another update! Freddy and Sky finally see each other for the first time since they both died. I thought it was going to be hard for me to write out that scene, but I made it through without bawling. There will be only one more chapter left, maybe two if it gets too long, but we'll see.

Thanks for the review PrettyRecklessLaura!

Nancy's POV

I looked out my window with a heavy heart as the ambulance and police cars started to arrive across the street, red and blue lights flashing intermittently. The paramedics hurried into the house carrying a gurney and it wasn't long before Daddy drove up in front of the Lantz residence. Sergeant Parker ran out of Glen's house, straight to Daddy. They conversed and started to head inside, but Daddy swung around and met my gaze. He waved briefly, which I returned, tears running down my face. He went inside with Sergeant Parker and Mr. Lantz.

Donald's POV

All I could feel was frustration. These kids were dropping off like flies and we don't even know who's responsible. I believed it was Rod Lane at first, but a killer wouldn't gut himself like that. I stood there staring into the living room. A tarp had been laid out on the floor and there was a spot on the ceiling that was oozing blood. A fellow cop carefully placed a bucket underneath the spot in the ceiling.

"Lieutenant, it's your daughter." Sergeant Parker informed me as he gestured to the phone.

I sighed internally, this was not going to be a good conversation. I breezed over to the phone and picked it up. "Nancy?"

"Hi, Daddy. I know what happened." Her voice faltered towards the end.

"I haven't been upstairs yet." I said.

"Yeah, but you know he's dead, right?" Nancy pressed.

"Yeah. Apparently he's dead." I confirmed.

"Daddy, I need you to listen very carefully."

"Nancy."

"I'm going to try and stop the killer, but I need you to be here in case my first plan doesn't work out."

"Just tell me who did it. I'll go get him, baby." I urged.

"Fred Krueger did it, Daddy. And only I can get him. It's my nightmare he comes to. Just come here and break the door down in exactly twenty minutes. Can you do that?"

"Yeah, sure." I agreed.

"That'll be exactly half past midnight. Time-time enough for me to fall asleep and find him."

"Honey, look, you just get yourself some sleep. That's what I've been telling you all along."

"But you'll be here right?"

"Lieutenant, they're waiting for you upstairs." Sergeant Parker intervened.

"Yeah, I'll be there sweetheart. You just get yourself some rest, please. Deal?"

"Deal."

"I love you sweetheart." I said before hanging up the phone and turned to Sergeant Parker. "Look, go outside and watch my daughter's house. If you see anything funny, call me."

"Anything funny like what?"

"I don't know." I sighed. "One thing for sure, I don't want her coming over here. She's too far gone to be able to handle this."

Nancy's POV

After talking to Daddy, I made myself busy setting up booby traps around the house. I was hoping I wouldn't have to use them, but if the woman in the white dress can't stop him, then it will be up to me. All I needed to do was find her, grab her when I start to feel a nightmare coming on, and she should be pulled through with me just like what happened with the hat. I was on my way to my room when I saw the light on in Mother's bedroom. I peeked in to see her lying down on the bed clutching the bottle of vodka in one of her hands.

"Nancy, come here." She reached for me with one arm.

I complied and grabbed her hand as I sat down on the edge of the bed.

"I guess I should have told you about him then."

I could see the guilt in her eyes and I felt just as guilty for not seeing what these last few days have been doing to her. We've all been suffering in some way or another.

"Just get some sleep Mom. It's going to be ok." I reassured.

"I was just trying to protect you. I didn't see how much you needed to know. You face things. That's your nature. That's your gift. But sometime you have to turn away too." She screwed the cap onto the bottle and set it down on the bedside table.

"I love you." Tears welled up into my eyes, realizing that this could be the last time that I see her if things didn't go well.

"I love you too baby." She whispered.

I tucked Mother into bed and kissed her cheek before turning off the light. I left her room, closing the door behind me and ventured into my room. I grabbed my alarm clock and wound it up for it to go off at half past midnight.

"Ok, Krueger. We play in your court." I hopped into bed and clasped my hands together in prayer. "Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord, my soul to keep, and if I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take."

I set the timer on my wristwatch. "Countdown, ten minutes and counting."

I laid down and made myself comfortable. It shouldn't be hard to fall asleep since I haven't slept in days. I couldn't help but think about the conversation I had with Glen about the dream skills.

"What if they meet a monster in their dreams? Then what?"

"They turn their back on it. Take away its energy and it disappears."

"But what happens if they don't do that?"

"Well, then I guess those people don't wake up to tell what happens."

I closed my eyes, allowing sleep to overtake me.

Sky's POV

I was sitting on the steps of the gazebo, my hands braced together in my lap so tight my knuckles were turning white. I had this terrible feeling that something bad was going to happen and I couldn't shake it off no matter hard I tried. I tensed when I heard a rustling sound in front of me, but sighed in relief when the brown haired girl from earlier emerged from behind one of the bushes.

"Thank God you're alive." I said as she jogged towards me. "I thought you had been killed."

"I'm ok, for now anyways. Look, there's no time, I need to take you with me."

"Take me where?" I stood up.

"I know where Freddy is, I can take you to him. You two were lovers weren't you?"

"Yes, my name is Skyler Van Dorn. I knew Freddy when I was alive. We were both broken people who had lived through shitty situations and we ended up finding comfort within one another. Then I got very sick and ended up dying, leaving him behind. I've been waiting for him here ever since."

"Well, he must've snapped or something after you died because he ended up killing several children. He was caught, but was let go because of some screw up in the system, and a bunch of the parents tracked him down and killed him."

"He's dead?"

"Yes, and he hasn't stopped killing because he can somehow take control of our nightmares and if he kills us in our sleep, we die for real."

"Oh my God!" I whispered in awe.

"Will you help me stop him?" The girl pressed.

"Yes, but first, what's your name?"

"Nancy." She answered.

"Ok Nancy. Let's go find Freddy."

Nancy held her hand out for me to take and I let out a huge breath before grabbing ahold. The moonlit garden melted away and was replaced by a giant boiler room. I let go of Nancy's hand.

"It worked!" She exclaimed.

"Now all we have to do is find Freddy." I added, but we didn't need to find Freddy because he was already there.

"Look!" Nancy pointed towards one end of the room.

A shadow of a silhouette was cast on the wall by the glow of one of the boilers and it decreased in size as it moved closer. I looked at Nancy, who nodded, and started making my towards the figure. I was a few feet away when he emerged from behind some machinery, making me stop in my tracks. I felt this pull in my chest that wanted to me to move closer to him, but I stood my ground. We regarded each other in silence, both of us in shock at the sight of one another. He was badly burned, which made me remember the terrible nightmare I had when I was alive. It had come true.

"Sky, what are you doing here?" His raspy voice broke the silence.

My mouth struggled to form words. I wanted to be closer to him, but the pull in my chest gave a great heave and I had to grab onto a nearby pipe.

"Don't come any closer Sky. My body is trying to absorb your soul. I can't touch you." Freddy explained.

The words cut me deep and I couldn't help the tears that escaped my eyes. "What happened after I died Freddy? Why did you kill all of those kids?"

"I'm not the Freddy that you once knew, he died when you did."

"And you couldn't hold it together for Katherine's sake?"

"They took her away from me. They're always taking the people that I love away from me. First Hill, then you, and Katherine. That's why I'm doing this Sky. I'm avenging the three of you and how they treated me my whole life."

"No." I cried. "What you're doing is horrible and you need to stop."

"It's not that simple. I made a deal." He avoided my eyes.

"With who?" I demanded.

I jumped back in panic when three floating heads with gelatinous tails appeared before me.

"With us demons." One of them replied.

"She smells good Freddy." Another came in from behind and over one of my shoulders.

"Her soul is calling to us Freddy, imagine the power you'll gain when you absorb her soul." The third directed at Freddy.

"Think of it this way, you'll both be together...forever." The one hovering over my shoulder chuckled, the other two joining in his amusement.

"Yeah, Freddy, why don't you kiss the bride." The third demon pushed me hard enough to make me lose my grip on the pipe and I stumbled as I lost my footing.

I braced myself for the hard impact, but instead of falling to the floor, I felt hands steady me. I looked up in shock to see that it was Freddy.

I gasped. "I thought you said you couldn't touch me."

"It's taking all I have not to absorb you at this very moment." Freddy grunted.

"Don't resist Freddy." One of the demons insisted.

"You know you want to Freddy." Another taunted.

The feeling in my chest had increased in intensity and I thought for a moment that it was over, but I was wrong. I felt a tremendous force push me away and I was flying through the air. I even whizzed past Nancy. I was swallowed up by a portal that had formed behind her and everything went black.

Nancy's POV

"Nooooooo!" I yelled as I watched the portal disappear.

"You." Freddy seethed as he pointed at me with a bladed finger.

I watched as Freddy transformed in front of me. His burned skin turned blood red, his eyes turned icy blue, and the tips of his ears and teeth formed into sharp points.

"You brought her here." His voice had deepened, making me shiver.

I did the only thing that came to mind, I ran like hell.

Uh oh! Freddy's pissed, so pissed that he changed into his demonic form from Freddy vs. Jason.

Thanks for reading guys!
