---Horror's POV---- 

Today went rather quickly. Life went pretty normally apart from the fact that Killer was in a massive mood. I think it's because of that glitchy skeleton that whooped his ass.

He's kinda the newest member to our little gang and friends with Nightmare as well now. And let's just say Killer was mildly pissed about the whole situation.

He ignored him all day and glared at him. Giving one of his famous death stares. Glitchy did the right thing and ignored him. I mean, he had tried to start a conversation with Killer, but he wasn't having any of it. Stubborn shit.

But anyway, the end bell had gone, and everyone was pushing past each other in the crowded corridors to get to each other. Most people tried to move out of the way if they saw me. They all recognise me, and they know I'm good with my fists.

I eventually broke free of the crowds and came out on the front courtyard. It was still flooded with people, but wasn't as crowded as the corridors.

I could see Nightmare stood next to Dream, smirking at him as Dream seemed to be trying to prove a point about something. Nightmare had obviously said something that had contradicted Dreams whole point, and now he was trying to bring it back up.

I also saw Dust making his way out of the school gates, glancing left and right before he crossed the road. What a good boy.

I watched as Dreams two best friends ran up to him, the three of them doing a group hug. Nightmare rolled his eye in the background and started walking away, dragging them with him using his tentacles.

I laughed to myself, that earned me a few odd looks from the people around me. I ignored them and started walking out of the school gates, off on my way home.

I lived a bit further away from everyone else I knew. I was round Elms block. The part of Craitown that's famous for being sketchy and creepy.

Its actually not that bad there. I have a rented apartment room in one of the crumbling tower blocks. Craitown council keeps saying that they'll fix this place up, but its been seven years and the only progress we've had is bad, unwanted progress.

I always walked down the middle of the road when I went home. If you walked on the pavement there was a high chance that you'd be grabbed by some creep and be dragged into an alleyway to be mugged, robbed, or worse...raped.

I think if I was grabbed I'd be able to fight them off. But if it was a gang then I'd have some trouble. I'd still put up a fight but I'd just be using up my energy.

But by walking in the middle of the road your chances of being attacked were lessened. Apart from if you got hit by a car. Them there would be a problem.

I had nearly reached my apartment block when I froze. Ahead of me, I could see a group of three men, two human one monster, dragging someone, one of them had a hand clasped over their mouth and was hissing at them to be quiet.

Whoever they were dragging was obviously being taken against their will as they were kicking and struggling like their life depended on it. Well, in this situation maybe it does.

I walked slowly closer, my apartment block coming up at my right. I glanced at the group just in time to see whoever they had grabbed bite the hand of whoever had grabbed him.

"Son of a-"

"HELP! SOMEBODY HELP ME! PLEASE!" They screamed.

I flinched at how desperate they sounded and turned to walk up the path to the apartment block. But I could feel myself slowing at the sound of the men threatening whoever they had grabbed.

"Now listen here, your going to be quiet. Got that?" They hissed. Their victim whimpered in response, realising that no one was going to help them.

I listened as they dragged them off into an alleyway. That's when I realised that I'd stopped moving. I glared at the floor, my emotions fighting with each other.

I glanced behind me just as the small group dragged their victim down the alleyway opposite. I turned back round and stared at a nearby bush. As if it would tell me what to do.

One single cry for help came again from down the alleyway and I snapped. I mentally hit myself as I spun on my heels and took off running down across the road to the alleyway they had disappeared down.

I skidded into the darkness and looked around me, I should have really brought some sort of weapon. It was so dark and shady in here that I could barely see, but in the near distance I could make out the silhouettes of the three men. They had that person pinned against the wall, I didn't like the look of their positions.

I looked to the side to see one of those safety axes. The, break glass to get the axe thing. God knows why there's one down here, but it was going to be put to good use.

I smashed the glass with my foot and grabbed the axe, it was large and heavier than I thought it would be. But when I gripped it, it felt like it was meant to be.

"Hey you guys!" I called. "Why don't you pick on someone your own size?"

They slowly turned to face me, their eyes glinting in the half light. "Heh, go home kid. Nothing to see here." One of them said, edging towards me.

I passed the axe to and fro in my hands purposely making sure that they saw it. I'm hoping I won't have to actually use it. But it looks like I might have to.

"Why don't you put the axe down kid. We wouldn't want anyone to get hurt, would we?" He said again, edging ever closer, slowly reaching his hand out.

"Wouldn't we?" I growled, swinging the axe back and slashing it forwards, connecting with the man's finger tips and slicing one clean off.

The man backed up, clutching his hand in pain. I looked at the cool metal of the axe. It had a small smear of blood on it, it looked good.

I grinned. This was going to be fun.

"Your going to pay for that." The man growled, still clutching his bleeding hand. I readied the axe and grinned.

"Am I?"
