Chapter 4: unlimited power

Nightmare would watch from the distance. "Just as I planned." He'd say before cackling.

Chapter 4

"Blue..." Luke would whisper before adding "FUCK YOU DAD!". Jace, angry and very much not sober would smack Luke across the face. "Dare speak to me like that again and I'll hit you harder." He'd say.

"Babe. We taught him to call out bullshit like this. Just because your sister left with Bluebell doesn't give you the right to use him as your punching bag. Ugh, it's our fucking wedding and you do this shit?!" Zara would yell at him. "She tried starting drama by saying Nightmare was alive. In case you forgot, he's the reason my parents are dead. So her lying about that pissed me off." He'd add.

Nightmare would watch in the distance, feeling satisfied with the chaos he had caused. He had waited for the perfect moment to reveal himself, and now that he had, he could sit back and watch the drama unfold.

Meanwhile, Chloe and Bluebell had disappeared into the shadows, their footsteps barely audible. Bluebell, still in shock from what had just happened, clung to her mother's hand tightly. Chloe knew that she needed to protect her daughter from Nightmare's grasp, but she also knew that they needed to come up with a plan. As they walked, Chloe could feel her thoughts racing, trying to figure out what to do next.

Finally, they arrived at a secluded spot hidden deep within the forest. Chloe scanned the area carefully, making sure that they were alone. Once she was convinced, she turned to Bluebell. "Listen to me carefully, my sweet girl," she whispered. "We need to stay hidden from Nightmare. He's dangerous and we need to make sure that he doesn't find us."

Bluebell nodded, her eyes wide with fear. Chloe took a deep breath and gathered her thoughts. "We're going to need to find a way to defeat him," she said firmly. "I've been researching and I think I've found a way. But it's going to be dangerous."

Bluebell looked up at her mother, her expression determined. Although she couldn't speak, Chloe could feel the determination radiating from her. Together, they began to plan their next move. They were going to take down Nightmare, no matter what it took.

Back at the wedding, the chaos continued. Jace had stormed out, furious at Zara's words. Luke was nursing a bruised cheek, and Zara was trying to pull herself together. The tension in the air was palpable, and everyone was on edge.

Suddenly, there was a loud crash from outside. Everyone froze, looking around in alarm. Zara's heart raced as she realized what was happening. Nightmare had found them.

Without hesitation, she sprang into action. "We need to find him and get rid of him," she said firmly. "We can't let him win."

As one, the group set out to find Nightmare. They moved quickly and quietly, their eyes scanning the shadows for any sign of movement. When they finally found him, he was waiting for them, his eyes gleaming with malice.

Zara stepped forward, her hands balled into fists. "You're not going to win this time," she said firmly. "We're not going to let you hurt anyone again."
