Worship - Ethan Landry x male oc [2]

28

As Romeo goes to follow Sam, he stops when Sam emerges back from where she had come from, watching silently as she tries the locked security door.

"Sam?" Romeo questioned, approaching her and wondering why she seems so worked up. "What's wrong?"

Sam turns to him, a look of hesitation on her face as she hesitates whether to tell him or not. The word Bailey had said to her playing in her head.

"Romeo's planning all this, he kept a secret before. What stops him now?"

"Sam!" Romeo called out, frowning when Sam jumped at his raised voice. "What--" He stops what he was going to say when he hears a sound coming from behind him. He turns and sees a tattered movie screen lowers over the stage and the projector cranks to life, shooting flickering images onto the old movie screen.

Showing some kind of homemade Stab movies, like some type of fanfiction.

"Oh shit..." He heard Sam mutters from behind him, turning to look at her and saw her with a look of hesitancy.

"Sam, whatever he's telling you don't believe him." Romeo said, taking out the knife from under his shirt and placing it on the ground. "The killers are Quinn, Bailey and Ethan."

"How do I know I can trust you? How do I know you're not planning all of this." Sam said, kicking the blade away from Romeo.

"One, I just woke up from a coma, and second I saw Ethan's face when I was fighting him in your apartment." Romeo said, looking into Sam's eyes. He turns his head away when he hears a familiar scream, sharing a look with Sam before they run towards where the scream is and sees Tara stabbed in the back by Ghostface.

"No!" Chad exclaimed over Tara's scream.

Romeo looks at the Ghostface who pulls the knife out and pushes her out of the way and tackles Ghostface into the Stab movie posters wall. "Run!" He exclaimed as the Ghostface slashes at him, who ducks it and hits them with a right cross.

Ghostface goes reeling as the trio turn and right into Sam. Tara screams in surprise and falls into her arms.

Sam sees the blood on the back. "Tara!"

"Come on!" Chad exclaimed and the quartet runs back into the main floor.

"It's Kirby! She's the killer!" Sam exclaimed.

"No shit!" Chad exclaimed, walking to the back of the theater where they came in.

"No, that door's locked!" Sam said, looking at Romeo. The argument between them long forgotten.

"We're trapped?" Chad questioned.

"She made the whole theater the killbox. For us." Sam said.

"What about up there...? Might be a door to the roof?" Tara said, breathing heavily as Romeo takes off his jacket and shirt, putting on his jacket again and starts wrapping the shirt around her wound making her groan.

"Sorry." Romeo muttered, shivering slightly from the breeze. They all look up at the balcony above them. Some scaffolding on stage right they can climb on.

"Only one way to find out." Chad said, creeping down an aisle, past exhibits, towards the scaffolding. Listening for any movement for Ghostface.

"Bailey's on the way, but maybe--" Sam was cut off as Ghostface runs out from behind the movie screen and leaps off the stage in front of them, cutting off their path to the scaffolding.

Sam staggers back against a display and drops her knife. It slides away, out of reach.

Ghostface, slashing at Chad. He ducks the blade and it takes the head off the mannequin displaying Randy's work shirt.

"Beheadings!" Chad said, repeating his past words as he's slammed against another display. He notices what's on the pedestal-- Kenny's TV camera from the first Stab movie. Chad hefts it above his head, slamming it onto Ghostface's. "Not into movies, huh motherfucker? How 'bout TV? Goddamn, I sounded cool saying that!"

Ghostface rises, springing back into action, but Chad holds him off, protecting his body with the bulky camera.

"Run!" Chad exclaimed to the trio.

The trio duck into the narrow hallway stage left which Chad follows into. Sam, Romeo and Tara run down it with Chad behind them, swinging the camera and holding Ghostface at bay. They sprint to the end of it, emerging back in the lobby.

Ghostface swipes at Chad with the knife as Chad swings the camera again and hits him right on his face making Ghostface drop the knife.

"Fuck yeah!" Chad exclaimed, moving in to finish the job when behind him a second Ghostface emerges and stabs Chad in the back.

"NO!" Romeo and Tara exclaimed in horror.

Chad screams as the first Ghostface rises, retrieves his knife and stabs Chad in the stomach.

Sam, Romeo and Tara watch in horror as the two Ghostfaces butcher Chad. The knives flash as they are pulled out and plunged in again and again like a human pin cushion.

Chad gurgles, his eyes finding Tara's teary eyes. "Go..." He muttered out, giving her one last smile as he collapsed.

Both Ghostfaces turn back to the trio, each doing a bloody knife wipe in unison.

The trio turn and run back into the main floor, heading for the scaffolding again. One Ghostface emerges from the narrow hallway by the stage, the second emerges from the lobby behind them.

The trio, in the middle of the main floor with each Ghostfaces advancing on them from both sides.

The trio look at each other, flight turning to fight. Sam picks up two bricks from the crumbling place, handing one to Tara while Romeo kneels down and picks up the blade Sam had kicked into his hand.

"Ready?" Sam asked.

"Ready." Romeo and Tara said, facing one Ghostface and Tara instantly noticed that the Ghostface in front of them slightly lowered their knife. She looks at Romeo and sees the knowing smile on his face before looking back at Ghostface in front of them. "Ethan..." She mutters, gaining the Ghostface attention.

"Play along." Romeo mutters to Tara who nodded.

The Ghostfaces close in, knives up. "Come on, motherfucker!" Sam exclaimed, flinching when three gunshots sounded.

The gunfire sends the killers disappearing in opposite directions, revealing the shooter as Kirby. Who stumbles out from behind the movie screen, bleeding from a gash in her temple and unsteady on her feet.

Sam and Tara eye her warily as she approaches, stopping Romeo who wanted to walk towards her, looking at the sisters with a confused look.

"It's okay now--" Kirby tried to say but was cut off by Tara.

"The fuck it is!" Tara exclaimed, holding onto Romeo's wrist.

"Stay back!" Sam said.

Kirby stops, looking at them who back up to the wall.

"We know it's you!" Tara exclaimed.

"One-- one of them knocked me out, dragged me in here!" Kirby said, taking a step forward but stops when the girls raise the bricks.

"Get away from them!" Bailey exclaimed, rushing into the auditorium from the back security door, gun trained on Kirby, rage in his eyes.

Kirby aims at him as he comes down the aisle. "What are you doing--"

"Did you kill Quinn? Did you kill my daughter?" Bailey asked.

"Jesus Christ!" Kirby exclaimed, turning to the trio. "Whatever he told you, don't believe him! He's probably the killer--" She was cut short as one of the Ghostfaces suddenly darts out of the shadow, knife raised and running at Bailey. She shifts her aim. "Behind you!"

But Bailey doesn't turn. Instead, he shoots Kirby twice in the chest.

Sam and Tara scream as she goes down while Romeo glares at Bailey who smirked at him.

What the five of them don't know is that, two Ghostfaces robes have disappeared from the case with the knives. The robes that were missing from the case? Adrian Boudet and Mickey Altieri.
