Gabe woke up from his woozy state and saw a hundred people looking at him. He gulped as he saw he was in nothing but his boxers and he was strapped to a wooden sacrificing table. His roommate at East-Brick had been a satanist the whole time and he didn't even know. "Oh Holy God Lucifer", Landon began, standing over Gabe with a blood-stained knife, "This will our first human sacrifice to you and I hope you enjoy it and let it be one of many". Gabe was hyperventilating as Ross, James and Faith approached him with knives and with hoods. Landon slid his blade aginst his forearm and let it drip on Gabe. "You get the best job", Landon said to Gabe as James, Faith and Ross got into position for the finale of the ceremony. "Why?", Gabe asked, feeling his pulse beat out of his neck. "After this, you get to go down and meet Lucifer himself", Landon said, "Like wow! What an honour". Gabe shook his head and looked up at his 4 former friends and closed his eyes. "Raise your blades", Lanodn ordered and James, Faith and Ross raised their blades above their head. "Remember, chest, throat and head", Landon said, "Now, let us conclude this ceremony and let the angel Gabriel meet our lord". Gabe held his breath; he wasn't making it out of this situation alive.
Marlon drove as fast as he could to Earl's location which was a streetlamp away from the party venue. He saw his partner and pulled the car up to a screeching halt. "Wow, didn't expect you that fast", Earl said, smiling. "I don't have a good feeling about this", Marlon said, getting out of the car and locking it. They both could hear the rumbling of techno music and guessed the venue was this old shed. Earl went first, withdrawing his gun and Marlon doing the same. They saw bright lights emanating from the old, wooden door. Earl took a deep breath and kicked the door down and what their eyes saw next was unbelievable; a hundred teens rubbing blood all over them, 4 people with knives and a teenage boy being stabbed. "Freeze!", Marlon yelled, "Get on the fucking ground! ALL OF YOU! Faith I know you're here, get on the ground". Landon, James, Faith and Ross all put their hands up while Earl called for backup and blocked the exit. "We need an ambulance", Marlon said to Earl. Marlon approached his daughter and looked her in the eyes with tears blocking some of his vision. He sat on the ground and started crying. What had this group done?
