Plan B
I saw outside the room that eerily resembled a doctor's office waiting room. I was anxious to hear if they dispatched any of L.A.'s new inhabitants. One by one Hartsdale and Ramsey walked passed and into the door. Well, they were back! Just...a little more ragged then usual. Except for Wolfson. Who still wasn't back yet.
I got up and barged open the double doors just as Ramsey and Hartsdale sat down.
"We haven't called you in yet." Ramsey sneered.
"Where's Wolfson?" Ramsey rolled his eyes at me. He turned to Hartsdale, who's eyes suddenly went black. Hartsdale's eyes returned to normal within seconds.
"She's about to do away with the vampire with a soul."
"Which one?" I asked hastily. I saw at the edge of the desk enamoured. "Well?"
Hartsdale and Ramsey exchanged looks. "Angel." They both said. My smile widened. They again exchanged looks. It was like one of them wanted to say something but niether wanted to do it.
"WHAT?" I asked.
"We want you to...bring someone in." I gave them a quizzical look. ho would they have been talking about? "It's not a someone as much as a...well here, the screen will tell you." He picked up the remote and switched on the t.v. Didn't know they had t.v. in this dimension... He switched channels and stopped at a Freddy Krueger movie. Maybe the 4th or 5th. Or 3rd. By now they're were too many to count.
"You want me to bring in fictional Freddy Krueger!?" They sighed. "You don't think I can do it!"
"Well, if we can't..." Ramsey said. "Just do what we ask. Or else your latest raising will be head of Wolfram and Hart.
Lilah I thought. I decided to play nice. Besides Ramsey could fire me! Litterally! "Fine. I'm guessing you'll feed the movie into me at the home office?" They nodded. Then Hartsdale stood up.
"This is Wes Craven's: New Nightmare." Like I knew what that meant. "It meant that THIS particular Freddy can attack out of dreams practically. He can alter ... reality. As in our plan."
"What's your plan?" I asked. I knew when Hartsdale lifted his glasses and breathed on them he was about to get scientific. "You're going to kill them in their dreams?"
"Not exactly."
"Then what? That's all he's good for." I snapped. I hated when I was overminded.
"I told you the subjects don't have to be asleep! Listen!" He put his glasses back on. "You will use Freddy to turn their hotel into a Tesseract."
What. The. Fuck. I was speechless. "A tesseract? As in A Wrinkle In Time?"
"Yes, sort of. A tesseract is-"
"The fourth dimension I know, I know. Continue." Ramsey appeared in front of my eyes flaming.
"You don't interrupt The Hart!"
"I'm sorry."
"Anyway." Hartsdale continued. Great. "A tesseract is when a three dimensional object becomes a four dimensional object. Now, if Freddy makes the hotel their staying in a tesseract then rooms would connect in a different order. Then Freddy can will the tesseract to fold in on itself. More rooms connected until ...in theory everyone inside is crushed. As if you folded up a piece of paper."
"The genius of this," Of course Ramsey could interrupt! "Is that even if they somehow destory Freddy or return him, the tesseract will keep folding in on itself. Unless, a magnetic pulse. So what do you think of our plan?"
"I think it's over done. I'll bring Freddy back. But I'll play it my way. This tesseract thing is too much. I'll let Freddy do his magic HIS own way. OK?" They looked at me as if I had grown a third head. "Good." I said. "I still say this plan is cheesey.
I got back to my office quickly and set up the necessary essentials. I rented Wes Craven's: New Nightmare. Everything was ready. I turned it on and paused at a part where Freddy was.
"CHEESEY" As I activated the spell. Green light swirled around me and the t.v. started to glow. Suddenly, a hand with knives on the end of each finger appeared, and then a head and an arm. I helped him out. "Welcome Cheddar Krueger."
