Nick Goode Fear Street Novels & Stories

She had been quiet most of the time, spending less time with her friends than ever and preferring to remain isolated at home with her mother as often as she could. It was not her fault - that was what everyone kept telling her, especially her mother. Nickole spent several days after Alex got separated from them trembling in her irrational, childlike fear that she would never see him again. That fear, however, became reality when the authorities were forced to call off their efforts waiting and watching for Alex to make his way out of the boundaries of the Dark Zone. Soon after that, to everyone’s horror and dismay, her brother was presumed to be dead, and Nickole was never the same again.

but why keep it a secret. “All done.” His dad said, tossing the empty blood bag down. Nico stepped forward to take a glance inside the coffin, but his shoe rubbed, against the ice creating a small screeching sound. His father’s head snapped his way. He silently hid behind the rock formation holding his breath. “Shifting ice... they really create such creepy sounds...,” he mumbled and closed the coffin up. When he got the chance Nico ran out of there and up to his room as swiftly as he could. He did not know why he did that. Subconsciously he feared who that person might be.

Nick didn't need to look twice to recognize the silhouette of the round table cast against the chromatic blue background with a full moon that made his blood curdle.
