RAMPAGE

Chapter 3

Jeremy had already slaughtered four people in the space of an hour. He picked the perfect day to commence his killing spree. Halloween is the day when everyone is dressed up as someone they are not. On the day when fake blood is thrown around like rice at a wedding, nobody will notice him. He'll be left alone, and wearing his new mask nobody will be able to tell who he is. After murdering the old lady next door he proceeded to slice her face off and wear it as some kind of trophy for the entire world to see. The cold dead skin currently sat on his face, the blood dripped down his chin and across the front of his shirt. Playing on the TV in the living room was The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, he put it on after stealing her face. He had been parading around her house ever since. The sound of screaming and a loud chainsaw came from the TV, he listened to it play over and over as he walked back into the kitchen and looked down at her body. He smirked then reached up and pulled the thin layer from his face, he looked at the thin strands of DNA break as he pulled the mask down from his face and place it back on her head. He smirked then stood up tall and walked over to the sink where he quickly washed his face.

"Perfect" he whispered to himself.

Hearing the sound of a door slamming shut outside Jeremy snapped his head in the direction of the sound, he snickered and walked across the kitchen and entered the living room through the round archway. He pulled the curtain to the side and saw the elderly man approaching the front steps. Jeremy frowned and looked down at his watch and then frowned. The day surely had slipped away on him. He vanished into the shadows of the poorly lit room when the door opened and the man walked in, he had a bright smile on his face that quickly sank to worry when he saw the blood lingering by the kitchen entrance.

"H-Honey?" He called out, his voice soft and near broken.

The TV continued to blast the horror movie which made him turn his head and look at the screen, Sally was running for her life. He turned away and very slowly crept up the hallway, at that moment Jeremy came charging out at the man who didn't have time to react. When his eyes saw his deceased and faceless wife he was met with a kitchen knife that went straight into his skull. Blood sprayed from the side of his head and painted the white wall, Jeremy released the blade and watched the man go crashing down into the wall. That was kill number five. Jeremy intended on leaving a pile of bodies from his house all the way across town, he didn't know where he was going to stop, the only way he could be stopped is if he was killed.

Looking down at the man, he sighed, lifted his boot, and stomped the knife deeper into his skull. One kick was all it took for the knife to go even deeper, he walked across the room and went back into the kitchen and grabbed another knife and then exited the house through the front door. He closed it, stepped off the porch, and looked around from side to side. Where to next? He'd leave the school until later.

"Is everything set for tonight?" Cameron asked when he looked up from his school book, he had a pencil resting behind his ear as he flicked the pages. He looked at Oliver who looked at Jamie, and then Cameron sighed. "Oh come on does nobody have a plan yet?" He laughed.

Oliver shrugged softly. "I thought we were going to Taylor's house?"

Cameron looked confused. "Isn't the party at Sandy's?"

"No, it's at Taylor's."

"But..."

"I'll explain it later."

Cameron threw his hands up into the air and chuckled before he went back to his book.

"Is James coming?" Oliver asked.

"Not if you lot are you going to ask really invasive questions like last time" Cameron announced with a frown. Oliver and Jamie chuckled. "Hey, that was Tommy". Cameron rolled his eyes and went back to his reading.
