A Nightmare on Elm Street Page #2

Maybe we should just

stop talking about it, all right?

We keep talking about it, we'll keep thinking

about it, then we'll keep dreaming about it.

Did you know

that after the heart stops beating...

the brain keeps functioning for well over seven minutes?

We gut six more minutes to play.

-You okay?

-Yeah. Im just really exhausted.

Here.

-What's that?

-Zoneral.

It's basically speed for kids with ADD.

I've been on it since I was, like, 15.

No. No. No, thanks.

Nancy, look, youre running on fumes. Here, okay? Are you sure? Its--

Yeah, I'm fine for now.

I didn't take you for the religious type.

Yeah, well, you gotta believe

in something, you know?

Whats this one doing here?

It's The Pied Piper of Hamelin.

I saw it in one of my dreams. Its about

a guy whos betrayed by a town...

...and he gets his revenge

by taking all their children.

I keep dreaming about children too.

And then there's also a school.

Well, its gotta mean something.

Yeah, but, I mean, what? We didnt go to

school together until, like, 6th grade.

-Look, we're running cut cf time.

-What do you mean?

Nightmares are triggered by the belief

that the dreamer has no control...

...and this can cause insomnia.

But then it says at the 70-hour mark...

...the insomniac will begin

to experience micronaps.

"His brain will shut down its functions

for seconds in an attempt to recharge."

This basically means that you're dreaming,

but you don't know it.

Like, even if you're awake.

And then it says that after that,

your brain will shut down, inducing a coma.

Which is permanent sleep.

Nancy?

Nancy?

Nancy.

Yeah?

Hey.

Hey.

Where have you been?

I was at the bookstore.

Okay, well,

I didn't know where you were.

And I just feel like, with everything

that's been happening with your friends--

Hey, Mum?

Do I have some sort cf connection

with Kris...

...and Dean and Jesse?

Or Quentin?

Like, maybe we went to school together

when we were little or something like that?

Not that I can recall.

Did we ever know a guy named Freddy?

I don't think so.

Okay.

Good night.

Good night.

Hey, it's Gwen.

Nancy's starting to remember.

Honey, you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine, Mum.

-All right. I'm going to bed.

-Okay.

Little Nancy.

All grown up.

You're just a nightmare.

That's right.

No one can prove I was ever here.

Who are you?

You don't remember?

You must.

Youre my number one.

You're my...

...little Nancy.

I set an alarm.

Yes, you did.

In your dream.

You smell different.

Quentin?

Nancy, he gut to him. Jesse's dead.

He died in his sleep.

I saw him.

-l fell asleep. I saw Freddy.

-All right, Im coming over.

Okay.

Sh*t.

So Bad hams a preschool.

Can't find any pictures.

Wait, come here.

I drew this after my dream.

connected to the school?

I don't know.

But I know my mom's hiding something.

There's nothing here.
