Till death do us part

The First Attack

The bell rings for lunch so you make your way to you and your friend's usual spot. You take your bag off and sit next to Wes who was the only person there at the moment. "Any word about Tara?" You ask while plopping a grape in your mouth. "Surgery went smoothly, they think she should be alright but only time will tell we'll have to wait until-" You cut him off by rushing over to Mindy who was walking toward you guys. "Mindy Mindy Mindy!" "Alright, give me your notebook and I'll give you mine." She said as she sat next to you and took her notebook out of her bag. The two of you swapped notebooks and gasped as you read each other's theories and suspects. "What are you two dorks doing?" "None of your business Wes" Mindy said while shooing him off with her hand not taking her eyes off the notebook. "Wait! Wait you're right!" Mindy yelled. "Right about what?" Asked chad while walking over with his arm around his girlfriend liv. "Would you people mind your business?" Mindy asked in an annoyed tone. "It's kind of hard when you're yelling your business to the whole world." Wes replied "Come on just do it." chad said to liv "I don't know." "Do what?" amber asked "He wants me to turn on find my friends" "Don't do it, in fact turn your location off and keep your pepper spray handy." "Yeah, like that'll do anything." I laugh "Who brings pepper spray to a knife fight?" "Wes." Amber replies also laughing. "All I'm saying is you guys should have at least some sort of weapon on you at all times." "Why? Do you think they're gonna attack again?" Amber asks "Duh" I answer "I mean this obviously wasn't some random break in or something they tried to murder Tara there was nothing missing they didn't take anything, which means they were after Tara meaning they'll most likely attack again." "Exactly, if this were just some sort of break in like the cops are saying it is then why was nothing taken?" "Not to mention my mom said the killer was wearing a costume just like the one used in every past kill in woodsburrow, they're back. Ghost face is back." "Holy shit!" Mindy says while looking over at you excitedly. "Now there's some rules i'd like to go over when living a horror movie, I mean they aren't even really rules more like common sense but just in case you morons do the stupid thing in any of these situations I need to announce them." You say while looking at them all. "Okay rule number one never go anywhere alone, even if it's just to the bathroom and back because that's what the killer wants to do they're waiting for the second your alone to attack so even if you plan in being gone for just one minute bring someone with you." "Yeah no, I'd rather not have someone in the bathroom with me while I pee" Liv interrupts. "No you idiot, they don't have to come in with you just have them wait outside the door." "Okay, that was mean." "Anyways, rule number two trust NO ONE and I mean NO ONE the killer could be anyone even your sibling. In times like these you can literally trust no one except yourself." "Yeah but I highly doubt someone would kill their sibling." Wes adds "You'd be surprised." Mindy replies. "Yep, now rule number three if you hear a noise of any sort for god sake DO NOT go near it you dumbasses! But if you aren't gonna listen to me and go near it anyway at least grab a weapon instead of taking toward it empty handed. Rule number four-" "Jesus how many rules are there?!" Amber asks annoyed. "Do you wanna live or die?" I ask. Amber rolls her eyes. "Carry on" Chad says. "Rule number four if you hear someone enter your home and think it's someone you know but they aren't answering after you just called their name like thirty times chances are it's not them but the killer instead usually it's the killer. Rule number five if the killer is distracted use that as your opportunity to run the hell out if there if their busy killing someone don't stand there screaming like a dumbass, instead run away!" "Am I missing anything?" You asked as you turned to Mindy. "Just a bit, but we'll cover the rest later." You sit back down next to Wes and continue to eat your lunch, you look over and notice Wes eating sour patches. You look in your bag then back at him, "Did you just-" you playfully hit his arm and snatch them back as he laughs. "Jerk" You say as you both keep laughing. Amber looks at chads arm then at his face. "Tara said she fought back hard." "It's from football practice" "Hey, Tara's awake." Wes says as he gets up. You all grab your things and start leaving. "You guys go, I can't." Liv says "Bye," You say while running over to your black jeep and hopping in the passenger side while tossing the keys to wes as he ran around to the drivers side. Wes didn't have his own car yet and he liked to drive so to always let him drive yours. After visiting Tara you guys headed over to the bar, because you were underage they only allowed you guys none alcoholic drinks so you guys grabbed some soda and went over to play pool while amber talked about how much she didn't like Sam. "She's not that bad, you don't know why she left she could've had a good reason for it." "Yeah? Like what?" "I'm just saying okay, I mean I like sam she was always nice to me so I have no reason to hate her." "I don't hate her, I just won't want are to get hurt again." "If I can't her no one can, perfect motive." Mindy said while looking up at amber which had me thinking back to earlier before we went to the hospital to visit tara, and suddenly it clicked I grabbed Mindy's arm and yanked her outside. she gave me a weird look "What?"Move Amber to the top of our list!" "Why?" "Remember earlier when we were talking about the rules?" "Yeah?" "Well right before Wes said Tara was awake Amber looked at the bruises on chads arms and said-" "Tara fought back hard-" it suddenly clicks with Mindy as well. "But Tara wasn't even awake yet!" "EXACTLY!" Mindy drops her mouth to the shape of an 'o' while also smiling she then jumps up excitedly. "Bitch just gave herself away." You raise my eyebrows with a smug look. "We caught her ass." Mindy says while also feeling pretty smug, she wraps her arm around your shoulder and walks back inside with you.
