Zorina, Miles, Cory, Rayna, and Laura ran out of the dorm to the second exit. "Where the hell is May!" Cory yelled and they shrugged. "Fuck! My stomach!" Zorina yelled. Cory looked at Miles. "I'll get you a new one," Cory said, ripping the bottom of Mile's shirt off. He then tied it to suppress Zorina's wound tightly. "We need to get the hell out of here," Cory said, helping Zorina up. Miles went to the other side to help her as Rayna reinforced the door. "This won't hold, where can we go?" Rayna asked as Cory inspected the area. "We could try to go through that alleyway, but we don't know what the hell is over there, if we run down the right chances are that the killer can get there in time, so the left is the best idea," Cory said and they nodded. The five then went down to the left where they met face-to-face with another killer. "Fuck!" Cory yelled as the killer stabbed him in the shoulder. The five turned back and looked to the right side where the other killer was. "Alley!" Cory said as the five ran down that way. Cory held his knife wound as they ran. The five hurried down the alleyway not looking behind them. When they got to the other side, they looked around for a place they could get help from. "The store!" Cory said as the five ran inside it.

They entered the store where they started to frantically talk to the owner, they started talking gibberish at that point as the owner tried to calm them down, just then, the two killers entered the store as the five quickly ran to hide. "Look here, today ain't Halloween," the store owner said as one of the killers stabbed him relentlessly, the attendee grabbed the shotgun from behind the desk and shot it, missing as the other killer snuck behind him and sliced his neck open, grabbing the gun. The five ran down the different isles as they made it to the back of the store, they then hid behind the counter as they heard gunshots and screams. Cory took a peak to see what was happening as the killers were stabbing and shooting innocent civilians that just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. "There," Miles whispered, pointing to an emergency exit. "If we open it we have to run as fast as we can because it'll sound the alarms," Cory whispered, hand covered in blood from covering his wound. "You two won't make it this far with those injuries, I'll go sneak and grab some bandages and painkillers," Miles whispered and Cory shook his head. "No, don't, I don't want you to die," Cory whispered and Miles smiled. "I'll be fine, I have a weapon," he said and Cory nodded. Miles then sneaked off to the aisle with the pills and the bandages. The killers were still killing the civilians and Miles quickly came back. "We need to hurry," Zoriana whispered as Miles wrapped them both up swiftly. "That was hella fast," Laura said and Miles smiled. "I'm training to be a doctor, so I have some skills," he said as the five got up and ran to the emergency exit. They opened it, causing an alarm. The killers turned that way as they finished killing the last civilian.

The five ran down the sidewalk where they ran into Roman. They began to ramble again, not speaking English at this point. "Woah, slow down," Roman said and Cory took a deep breath. "It's happening again," Cory said as May mysteriously showed back up. "What the hell happened?" May asked as the five gave her a death stare. "Where in the fuck did you go!" Cory yelled and May started stuttering a bit. "I went to go find...Roman!" She said, seemingly coming up with what she said. "The store! We need to see if there are any survivors," Cory said and Roman nodded. The six left to go back to the store as May left again.

The six entered the store where there was a body everywhere, "Holy shit," Roman said and Cory bent down to check the body. "These are the most dead bodies I have seen in forever," Roman said, looking around. "There are at least forty different bodies, and that's on this side of the store, I know that this store is popular, but what the fuck," Roman said and they nodded. "There are two killers again," Cory said and Roman nodded. "I'm going to make a phone call, you five stay close together and help me tally up the bodies," Roman said and they nodded. He then took out his phone to call July.

The police and ambulances came as Grant showed up too, reporting the crime scene. "There have been sixty-three bodies reported here as dead, fourteen others are currently at the hospital now, and eight of them are in critical condition. The police department is working hard to figure out who would do something like this because this isn't a regular murderer we are looking at, this is a serial killer. Our misfortunate state was struck with a string of attacks like this last year, but there have never been this many deaths, police warn you to stay inside and lock down your house until they find this killer," Grant said as they ended the news update. "Hey, everything good?" Grant asked the six who were hanging by an ambulance where Zorina and Cjry were being treated. "I've been around for so many of these massacres, but this is like a," he began before being interrupted by Cory. "It's a remake, a remake is always bigger and bloodier than the original that is being remade. These killers want to set the stakes high, and they are accomplishing it already," Cory said as Romab agreed. "You six need to stay safe, I'm going to analyze this whole attack scene, I'll be fine," Roman said and they shook their heads. "Not alone," Grant said and the rest agreed. "Fine, Cory, and Zorina come with me," Roman said and the two nodded as they separated. "Sorry, I can't trust anyone else," he said as the three walked inside the store.
