Chapter 1: Demonic Savior to the Rescue

The spasmodic flashes of light pouring from the laptop on Ravana's desk was starting to give her a migraine. She'd been searching most of the day-because what were the odds he'd actually killed them all? It couldn't be true. She couldn't and wouldn't accept that. In a flurry of poorly manicured nails and quick finger tips, she'd punched in two words.

Nancy Holbrook.

She waited impatiently while the Demon-Survivor Database blinked 'loading'. Her dark blue eyes skimmed the article her system had retrieved. Without thinking, she read what she skimmed aloud:

"Holbrook. 18. Springwood…" Her eyes skimmed the rest of the article at full speed. And finally rested on the words:
"Status: Alive".

Ravana closed the laptop for a brisk moment to think. If the Holbrook girl was alive did she even need to intervine? Krueger couldn't have possibly done that much damage…Not if the girl was surviving. She sat back on her hotel room bed and had just closed her eyes when the pager connected to her belt let out three sharp beeps.

"Shit! He's just now staging a code blue attack?"

The clock read 2:45 a.m.

She grabbed two revolvers on her nightstand, eagerly checked her ammo supply, and grabbed the bag containing her laptop. She rushed from the room in such a hurry that she almost knocked a couple that had been passionately making out on the steps onto the sidewalk. At the last second she had somersaulted over them in Olympic fashion and jumped the open window of her Blue Camaro. The couple stared in amazement and Ravana grinned her devilish grin.

As she righted herself in the driver's seat-She jammed the keys into the ignition, started the car and was careening around the corner at a break-neck speed of 245mph. Suddenly, a heavily graffitied wall was looming in front of Ravana-Her blue lips curled back to reveal a well assured smirk and she floored the accelerator. For a moment time seemed to stand still and then it was over. She had passed through the barrier and she was sitting in front of a dilapidated old building. A sign out front let her know she was sitting in the parking lot of 'Badham Preschool'. She recognized the name from Krueger's file on the Demon-Survivor database.

Ravana snapped and the car automatically cut off and turned invisible. The dream world was an interesting one to navigate and the most dangerous. Demons weren't supposed to cut into their own kind's territory. Ravana's unique position of being 1/3rd human and 2/3rds shadow demon had afforded her the ability to become an agent for the common good of mankind. She was almost 5,000 years old and had been re-incarnated so many times she had lost count, but never lost a detail of any life she had lived previously. A shadow darting to her left pulled her out of her reverie halfway up the steps to the door. She stood still and inhaled deeply.

Hell Hounds.

And close by too.

She heard a definitive snarl from the bushes behind her and turned in time to see a hulking form of a beast rise up from the roots and pounce. In the thin moonlight, she could see the exposed skeletal frame of the beast.
"Damn. I miscalculated. It's a Bone Beast. .." She mused while wrestling with the large animal. It's claws came dangerously close to tearing into her cheek, and she kicked it in the spinal column. It teetered away walking at an odd angle with its spine twisted crookedly. Ravana sat up and rubbed the back of her neck.
"Maybe I should take some refresher courses on my Creature Identification Skills?" She grumbled standing up and rushing to the front door. She knew where there was one Bone Beast there would be a whole pack.

Armed with that knowledge, she crept inside the structure and rounded the corner. Two sweet faced children guarded the door to where Ravana presumed the basement/ boiler room was. Per her usual arrogant manner, Ravana misjudged her adversaries and confidently strode over to the two youngsters.
"Step aside children-" She insisted, pushing the two light haired children from the door. The little girl giggled, grabbed Ravana's arm and twisted it firmly behind her back. The little boy smiled and pushed a serrated knife under her throat.
"No way Jose. You aren't going to bother Mister Krueger." He stated in a bubbly child-like manner.

Ravana gagged.

Hell Spawn.

How had she not smelled them before? They reeked of rot and piss, and in their true form they looked like little devils. Ravana looked heavenward and sighed. All this for one survivor? Why? She sighed even more deeply before using her other hand to grab her revolver and blowing the little boy's face off. The girl let go shrieking:

"YOU BITCH! YOU STUPID BITCH!"

"You'll join him soon enough." She mumbled unloading the last of her clip into the childish demon's form. The girl fell backward with a gurgled and laid in the floor limp. Ravana grinned and let herself go full shadow demon. Her skin changed from fair to gray. Her blue eyes shined a bit more, and her hair went from full black to black with two blue streaks on the right. Bursting through the door and stomping down the stairs. She was faced with two teens running for them. The girl screamed-her long brown hair choking her. The boy scrambled past Ravana in a hurry. The girl seemed frozen.

"Nancy?" Ravana asked.
The girl shook in fear. Ravana gently pushed her toward the boy, crooning softly:
"It's okay, I just wanted to make sure…"
Ravana stopped cold as she turned around, and found herself face to face with Krueger himself. He smirked and she caught him with a kick to the groin. He faltered on the stairs for a brief moment. When that didn't work. She grabbed for her gun and shot him in the chest. He tumbled down the stairs, but quickly stood up again and sprinted for the door, and landing beyond her. Ravana screeched and threw the door shut.
The two teens looked at her for guidance. She sighed and looked at them evenly.
"RUN!"
And with that-The group ran for the yard outside.

"Uh-What's that?" The boy pointed. Ravana's blood went cold. In the yard-The Bone Beast had found some friends. Behind them, Krueger chuckled.
"No way out now, huh?"
Ravana looked at both the beasts cornering them and Krueger blocking their re-entrance. Freddy yelled "Dinner." And the Bone Beasts advanced as Krueger closed the door laughing coldly.
The teens looked wild-eyed at the scene before them.
"I'll distract them, you guys get to the Camaro." She whispered urgently while taking the invisibility feature off the car. They looked at her doubtfully. The beasts were only a dozen or so feet away.
"My name is Ravana. I'm with the good guys, Once we get back to the real world, I'll explain everything."
Both teens nodded and got in position to run.
"On the count of three." Ravana mumbled,

"One…" The seconds ticked by.

"Two…" Ravana reached for her ammo belt and pulled out a star shaped metal disk.

"Three!" She shouted, throwing the disk and blowing up the majority of the Bone Beasts. The teens and Ravana scrambled to the car.

Once everyone was safely inside Ravana pushed some levers and pushed the car into reverse speeding backwards as fast as she could. After a moment or so, she found herself back in the alleyway where the graffiti wall was. Both teenagers disappeared. They'd woken up. With that Ravana smiled transformed back into her usual non-suspicion arousing form and headed to the seedy hotel. She figured she'd rest before setting off to find the kids again. She'd promised to explain what was going on., and Ravana always kept her promises.

*Ravana is my own original character. I own her and everything about her history and equipment.
I was creating a character profile for Ravana to help me start to develop her more, like: what her motives are, who she is, what she is, and her history in general and I came up with a couple chapters of a story set in the conjunction with the NOES universe. 
Enjoy!
(I'm not sure if I'll post other chapters here, it depends on how this one is received. This is also on Fanfiction.)
