Freddy Krueger: clenches fists Fuckin' graveyard again, huh? I'm tired. If ghosts could drive, they'd run us over.
looks at him with concern Freddy, I know you're haunted by your past. But terrorizing innocent people won't bring back the dead.
Freddy Krueger: laughs bitterly Innocent? There's no such thing. Everyone's got skeletons in their closets, and I'm just here to open those closet doors.
gasps So, what's it gonna be then? Are we gonna talk or...
Freddy Krueger: Talk? Yeah, let's talk alright. Let's talk about your screams, your pleas for mercy.
raises an eyebrow You know, Freddy, if you really want someone's attention, maybe try being nice instead of terrorizing them.
Freddy Krueger: smirks Nice? Me? That's about as funny as a comedian who doesn't know how to tell a joke.
whispers fiercely Just give it a shot, Freddy. Being nice might just surprise you.
Freddy Krueger: narrows his eyes Don't you dare lecture me on niceness, kid. I've seen more darkness in this world than you'll ever comprehend.
smiles gently I get it, Freddy. Darkness... I've seen my share too. But sometimes, even the darkest souls need a little light.
Freddy Krueger: pauses, looking conflicted Light... sighs heavily Maybe you're right. Maybe it's time I find a new purpose, something more than just causing chaos.
extends a hand Come on, Freddy. Let's find some light together.
Freddy Krueger: hesitates, then slowly takes Ethereal Glacier's hand Alright, let's see what this "light" is all about.
leads Freddy towards a nearby community center Welcome to the light, Freddy. It's not gonna be easy, but it's worth it.
Freddy Krueger: pauses, looking around the community center You know, I never thought I'd say this, but... thank you.
smiles warmly You're welcome, Freddy. Now, let's get started. We've got work to do.
Freddy Krueger: rolls up his sleeves Alright, what's first? I'm ready to put my skills to good use.
grins First, we clean up this place. Volunteers needed. hands Freddy a broom
Freddy Krueger: takes the broom and starts sweeping Well, look at that. The notorious Freddy Krueger, cleaning up a community center.
chuckles Who would've thought? You're quite the enigma, Freddy.
Freddy Krueger: pauses, leans the broom against the wall Enigma or not, I'm tired of being defined by my past.
nods I hear ya, Freddy. Your past doesn't define you. Not anymore.
Freddy Krueger: takes a deep breath You know, kid, it's been a long time since I've felt... normal. Like I belong somewhere.
places a hand on his shoulder Freddy, you belong right here. With us. We're family now.
Freddy Krueger: smiles softly Family... I haven't had a real family in years. Maybe this is my chance to finally have one.
hugs him It's your chance, Freddy. Embrace it.
Freddy Krueger: hugs Ethereal Glacier back Thanks, kid. I don't know what I would've done without you. You've given me a second chance at life, and I'm gonna make the most of it.
smiles That's the spirit, Freddy. Second chances are like free passes. Use 'em wisely.
Freddy Krueger: wipes away tears I'm gonna make sure no one else has to go through what I went through. I'll use my skills to protect people, to keep them safe.
nods That's a noble goal, Freddy. But remember, change starts with yourself.
Freddy Krueger: You're damn right, kid. I'm gonna change myself first. No more hunting teenagers, no more killing.
smiles That's the way, Freddy. One step at a time.
Freddy Krueger: takes out a notebook Alright, let's start by organizing our plans. We need a game plan to spread positivity and bring people together. Any ideas, kid?
