## Biography

Phoenix grew up alongside his younger sister and brother. His parents were quite busy with their jobs, leaving him to take care of his younger siblings. His situation lead him to becoming protective over not only his siblings but also his friends at school. He is what you would call a textbook example of a gentleman, and is always willing to help out his peers. Even now he still cares for his younger siblings, and will continue to do so until his parents finally find the time to.

It was in the middle of the school year. Phoenix made some new friends. One night when he was with Flora Loman, one of the new friends he made, Maria came up to them and told them about a man in her dreams who made her wear short dresses. Phoenix and Flora were disgusted, but it was just a weird dream. Who exposed her to that stuff? She kept on talking to them about the disturbing things he told her. They brushed it off, someone at school must of told her these things. But later that night, he was out with his friends when Maria and his other sibling Jacob were asleep. He was with multiple people and were walking down the street, and Jacob came running out of the house and told him about Maria floating. Phoenix got scared. It was probably just his imagination, but he needed to check. When he and his friends entered the rooms, they were horrified to find Maria's dead body. There was blood everywhere and multiple slash marks on her chest. Phoenix was devastated, his little sister was dead. While he was mourning over the next couple of days, Jacob told him more about Freddy. This couldn't be a dream demon who kills, was it a serial killer? One day when Phoenix came home from school, he heard choking. Rushing up to Jacob's room, he found him being hanged with a bed sheet by an invisible force. Phoenix was able to cut him down, and when Jacob was on his knees gasping for air, his head was decapitated clean. He screamed and Aaron O'Hannery, who was walking by, ran in to check if he was okay. He saw the dead body and called the police, comforting Phoenix. Phoenix was questioned by police, but was free to go. He didn't come home the same. He knew that this wasn't a human serial killer. The kids were right. On the news, some girl he never met before was killed a few weeks ago. His friends came over to comfort him, and he told him about Freddy. They were suspicious at first, until they started getting horrific dreams of their own, even getting attacked in some. They all knew it. Freddy was real and wanted them dead. More people started dropping, and he was with Regi Edwin. Earlier, Loretta played him and took his virginity; and innocence. Regi was caught and beat by his mother. Phoenix confronted her and then had Regi stay with him that night. Little did the two know, Freddy haunted Regi's mother Karen in her dream and made her go insane. She was given a hunting knife and tasked to kill them both. Karen broke into the house and attacked them. Phoenix tried to fight back, but she stabbed him twice. He almost died and was in a panic as Karen went upstairs to find and kill Regi. Phoenix used all of the strength he had left and got a knife from the kitchen, he had to save Regi. He didn't want to stab her, but was instead going to knock her out with the knife handle. But just as he was about to knock her out to save Regi, who was hiding under a bed, a force grabbed the knife and stabbed her multiple times. Regi couldn't see anything, he only heard the sound of stabbing and screaming, and blood being splattered all over the place. Phoenix knew it was Freddy. He got her to try to kill them, only to backstab her in the end? He wanted to play with them. Karen's body were taken away. Phoenix went to the hospital, just barely surviving. When he fell asleep, Freddy visited him in the dream. He said awful things, he wanted Phoenix to kill himself. It was awful. Phoenix woke up, and he was actually thinking about doing it. But then Flora came over. She was a savior. She came at the right time. Flora comforted him about the nightmare and he declared his love for her. She confessed that she loved him too. They started dating. In the hospital, Flora and Phoenix embraced each other and had sex. When Phoenix got out, he was hanging out with Flora and Regi. He was making dinner for them and after they ate, Flora fell asleep. It was late so Phoenix wasn't worried, but then he immediately started panicking. What if Freddy attacked her? Or even worse, killed her? She started choking and then got on her knees, looking like she was praying. Her face turned purple and she fell over, pus oozing out of her. Phoenix lost her. He started crying, he was losing all of his loved ones. When he was questioned by the police, the detective arrested him. They thought he committed all of the murders. He was sent to jail to await for his trial. Phoenix kept on telling them about Freddy, if he was declared guilty, he would go to the asylum. At his trial, all of his friends were there to support him. All of their evidence and claims weren't enough to save him, but suddenly a woman stood up. She told them all about Freddy Krueger and how he molested children. He molested all of them. Because of this, Phoenix was declared innocent and was free to go. Before they left, the court furniture started shaking and a message was written with pens. "RAMPAGE". They had enraged Freddy, and he was going to hurt them. A group went to Britney's house to stay together. The group was Phoenix, Marnie, Aaron, and Regi. Halfway through the movie, Regi had a seizure and was taken to the hospital. The three had to stay, and had no idea that it was Freddy trying to get Regi sedated. They didn't know, but Regi was just killed in the hospital. His neck was snapped by Loretta. After the movie ended, Freddy striked. The others that didn't go to Britney's house came back, only to find disaster. They had to find who was alive and discover what happened. When looking through the cameras, they found Phoenix and Aaron running into the bathroom, where there were no security cameras. However, Marnie was dragged away by a force.The group found Phoenix in a closet, hiding. He told them that Freddy came and attacked. Freddy brought Regi to a hospital and killed him, then brought the body to the house. When he and Aaron were hiding in the bathroom, Phoenix made a break for it when he heard Freddy near by. The group went into the bathroom, and was horrified of what they found. Marnie was dead, overdosed by Freddy. Aaron was in the tub filled with water, he was drowned. Only four were left alive. After investigating some more, they found Loretta and confronted her. She brought out a gun and showed off Regi's body, she revealed to them that she was Freddy's daughter. They tried to reason with her, but she shot Britney and put a hole through her hand. Then Loretta tried to shoot Phoenix in the head, but her gun was out of bullets. They attacked and beat her to a pulp, then stomped on her head. They thought she was dead, but after they left, she just simply regenerated. She was a dream demon too, killed herself 12 years ago. Phoenix, Britney, Lark, and Karim were the only ones left. They bought weapons and made a plan to go finish the job, defeat Freddy. When they went into the house, they found nothing. The only room they didn't check was the kitchen, it was locked. Karim broke the door down and they were right, Freddy was there. They tried to attack him, but he knocked them all back and forced them to go into a dream sequence. When Phoenix opened his eyes, he was in a cold dark place. It was outside and the sky was jet black, and mist surrounded the area. Several gravestones were aligned around. He was in a graveyard. Looking at the names, he recognized them. The names of his dead friends. As he walked past, he looked at them. Regi, Marnie, Aaron,...Flora. They were all there. Two gravestones in the front surprised him. Maria and Jacob. They were away from the others and had their own area. Freddy sent him here, he was planning something malicious for him. The others were nowhere to be found. A single rose were at each sibling's grave. The smell of death filled the air. Phoenix bent down to look at the graves, but a small rotting hand grabbed his leg. He looked in horror as Maria and Jacob's corpses crawled out of their tombs. Their eyes were murky white and what was left of their hair was covered in dirt and worms. Maggots crawled out of their mouths and they looked at Phoenix with hate. Pure hatred. After getting a grip on himself, Phoenix ran; the pair following him. Phoenix ran through the graveyard and into dark crooked woods. It looked like it came from a dark fairytale. But this whole don't go to sleep or die thing was a fairytale of it's own. A dark monster from their pasts coming back to hurt them, with it's little bitch of a daughter to hunt with it. Maria and Jacob chased after him. No, they're not Maria and Jacob. They're zombies controlled by Freddy. He had to remember that. After almost nearly tripping on a branch, Phoenix found a baseball bat. He quickly grabbed it and pointed it at them. They weren't his siblings, they were bloodthirsty zombies. Phoenix thought about all of the people who died, who were innocently killed...He wouldn't be one of them. Phoenix bashed their brains in, and woke up shortly after. He was covered in grey brain matter and blood in the real world. Phoenix was the first one awake, then it was Lark, and then Karim. Britney was still asleep and soon honey started to ooze out of her mouth. Bee stings started to cover her entire body. She was dead. They could only mourn for a minute as Freddy was still there. The group ran away, but they were locked inside. Karim suggested that they all hide, so they did. Freddy was dragging his sharp finger knives against the wall, looking for someone. He found Karim and then ripped him apart from the inside, killing him. After hearing Karim's screams, Lark and Phoenix knew he was dead. They met up and made a plan. The ghost of Freddy's mother Amanda Krueger, who they had seen every now and then, appeared and told them about Freddy. Before she could tell them how to actually defeat him, she was melted by Loretta. She had a dagger and pointed it at them, revealing she was a dream demon herself. Lark saw a bottle of holy water in her pocket, and quickly grabbed it. She poured it all over Loretta. Enraged, Loretta used the powers she did have on them. She made a force out of nothing and pushed Phoenix against a wall, but then threw Lark to the front door. Before she could get up and recover, abandoned furniture started flying and then came towards Lark, crushing her. Phoenix crawled away, just barely missing the dagger and other sharp items. He hid in a corner and waited for it to stop. Loretta slowly melted, stopping the power. Phoenix was breathing heavily, now that Loretta was taken care of, there was still Freddy. He came up to Phoenix and told him now that he's gotten his revenge on them, he would take Phoenix's body to live again. Freddy entered Phoenix to possess him. Before his body was taken away and his soul was destroyed, Phoenix grabbed Loretta's dagger and quickly slit his throat. He was happy. He would see his friends again. Phoenix's body was possessed and he moved onto the afterlife. He didn't know what happened to Freddy next, he only knew that Freddy was left with a bleeding out body.

There was balloons scattered everywhere, all light colors. Baby blue, light pink, it was so pretty. He looked around, he was with his friends. They never made it to prom, so I guess they would have it here. And then he saw her. Flora. He ran up to her and hugged her tight. She hugged him back. They were together again. Phoenix kissed Flora, he missed doing that. The world seemed to spin, but it didn't matter. All that mattered was that Flora and Phoenix were embracing each other in a kiss. Looking around, he saw his friends. Marnie and Lark were slow dancing. Karim was talking to a girl, his tumor sister. She finally got her own body. Britney and Evan were strolling around the party, holding hands. Maria and Jacob were dancing together, giggling. He grinned. Flora gave Phoenix a tender kiss again. He was so happy he went through this. If he didn't, he wouldn't have met all of these beautiful people. He wouldn't have met Flora. He wrapped his arms around her one last time, and asked her to dance.
