Life

8. Freddy Krueger

It's mid-afternoon. The girls are in the lounge room. They're reading things. "By the way, did you already heard about that song anout Nightmare on Elm Street?" Starts Lusa. "What do you mean?" Asks Sarah while she's petting her hamster, Boris. "I've heard that some minstrel called Will has written a song about Nightmare on Elm Street." Emily and Laila both burst into laughter. "Seriously? Yes, I know! I mean, why? Why would you do that?" They all burst into laughter. "Mark has it on record, I will let you hear it." Lusa runs to Mark's study.

Mark closes the door if his study and walks away. "Hey, Mark! Good afternoon, Lusa. Mark, can I borrow your recorder? Depends on. Where do you need it for? You recorded that Elm Street song, right? I want to let the girls hear it. Ah... Fine then. It's on my desk. Thanks!" She says while sprinting to the study.

When she opens the door she sees the recorder laying on the desk, exactly how Mark said. She grabs it, closes the door and runs back to the lounge room. When she's back the girls are already excited to hear it. Also Slish is there. "Slish? What are you doing here? I'vvve heard about a sssong??? Aye, I'll let you all hear it." She puts on the recorder and they all listen to the song.

When the song's over, no one is able to hold back her laughter. Lindir, Thranduil, Legolas and Estel approach them. "What is so funny? Don't tell." Lusa whispers. "Nothing. Sit down." Suggests Noa. They sit down. After waiting a couple of seconds, Thranduil just has to ask. "What were you doing?" Nena chuckles. "Do you know Nightmare on Elm Street? No. Well..." Lusa wants to start until Emily interrupts her. "No, no, no, don't tell. Why not!? We will tell it tonight on the slumber party. Slumber party?" Estel asks. "I'm a man. Real men don't have slumber parties." Noa raises an eyebrow. "Well, then fortunately you're not a real man." Estel faces annoyingly Emily's brown haired twin. "Why are you scared? How can you be scared for a slumber party? Slumber party means nighttime, and nighttime means horror stories." Legolas thinks. "Perhaps I should come. So Lindir are you coming?" Asks Lusa hopefully. "I'm coming." Adds Thranduil quickly. "Well, I just don't have so much with horror stories. You're just scared!" Estel calls out. "No, I'm not, I'm coming!" Yes!!!!! Slumber party with Lindir.....!!!!!!! Thinks Lusa. "Yay! That's going to be fun! Should we invite Mark too? Mark?" Emily asks in disbelief. "Remember last time when we've invited Mark to a slumber party.....?

Flashback...... Everyone (the girls and Slish) think back at that moment....

The girls, Slish and Admiraal and Mark are having a slumber party. "What should we do now?" Asks Emily enthousiastic. "Let'ssss play poker!!" Suggests Slish. So they get the cards and start to play poker.

15 minutes later. "Yay, won again!" Exclaimes Mark. Sarah sighs. "I think I'll stop. Aye, me too.." Agrees Nena. "Why, scared?" Challenges Mark. "No, it's just getting bored. How you mean 'bored'? It's great! Aye, for you!" Says Emily. "You've won every round! I'm broke." Explains Laila. "I think I'll go to sleep!" Lusa yawns and walks to the door. "Me too." Noa follows her. "What, now already?! We have just started! Come on, I need money!!!!" Lusa turns around. "Wow, easy blackmailer." She holds her hands in the air. "Well then, we are going to play another round," Mark collects all the cards again and shakes them, "and no one is going to leave before we've played this game. Can't you just give me a chance for once? I mean, I'm no princess or Queen or even royal. I need money to let a new guitar be made. So, everyone ready?" He looks up but he's in an empty room. The door closes. "I hate all of you."

"Aye, he's not going to come." Decides Laila. The twins are approaching them, arguing with each other. "Elladan, Elrohir! We are having a slumber party tonight, do you want to come?" Asks Nena. "A slumber party, that's for girls." Elladan rolls his eyes. Girls? That means... Emily...?? "I'm coming." Answers Elrohir. "Aye, you are as good as a girl." Elladan offends his twin.
