Carpenter or Loomis?

Chapter 5

Sam

I went back to my dad's Computer room to search for more information about that guy. I learned that he was a serial killer and his mom left him because Maureen Prescott slept with his dad. 

He hunts with a so called 'Ghostface' costume. Billy wasn't the only killer. He has his friend, Stuart Macher, to help him. Billy's motive was to kill the entire Prescott family because of what happened with his parents. 

That was when I realized that he was a mama's boy. After the first incident in Woodsboro, many other people did the same. Following Sidney and tried to kill her. 

But they're mostly related to the Victim and killer. I don't know much about the other incidents, but I know that woodsboro is a dangerous place. It happened since 1996 and 1997. Then a few years later, to 2000, they attacked again. This time, there are people I don't really know. 

They were in Los Angeles. They decided to make a movie about scream, but it came out that the killer was there too. I think it was Sidney's brother? It was in the news. I wasn't sure. I hope it doesn't happen here again. I wish I can move away from Woodsboro as soon as I can. 

The next day was hectic. I went to school normally like always, no surprises or anything. The teacher gave us things to do and whatever. 

I tried my best to concentrate in school, but couldn't. My mind always went to my- I'd rather call him Billy. Maybe I can ask the teachers if they still got some informations about him. 

I want to know more about him and his collegue, Stuart Macher, or Stu, like everyone calls him. So I went to the teachers office after school.

 
"Mr. Shoemaker. I have a question." He smiled at me and gesture me to come closer. He's a Artsy teacher since 1997 and should know about the incidents and about the backgroundstory. 

"Just ask, Sam." He put his things away and turned to me.
"So, I wanted to ask about the incident in Woodsboro... in the 90's. Specifically 1996. I want to get more information about Billy Loomis and Stuart Macher." I ask hesitantly, not sure if he's comfortable with this topic.

"You know, Sam, that's a very tough question from yours. It was bad. Very bad. I was so scared that I didn't even come to school and teach my students. Home wasn't even safe. I'm sorry Sam, but we got rid of Billy and Stu's things. We didn't want to have any more incidents in Woodsboro, especially when it ended 11 years ago. 10 years if you count the incidents in LA." He sighs and shook his head no.

I was disappointed because they got rid of all the information. 

"Why did you ask?"

I wasn't sure if I should tell him the truth or not. But I decided and lied to him. 

"Oh, I just saw some old article." I smiled politely at him. Mr. Shoemaker nods and smiles back.

"I'll take my leave then..." I kinda asked and stepped back. He nods and gesture me to go. 

On my way home, I picked up Tara from school. We got home and Tara went up to do her homework, while I got out and asked Thomas if he has time for today. 

Of course he said yes. I waited for him at a convenience store. I was looking inside and an idea popped in my head. I saw his car pull up and he got out before locking the car.
"Hey Sam." He greeted. I greet him back and we went inside the store. 

"Thomas, I have an idea..." I was unsure if I should tell him or not, but he nodded. "Since you're already legal to buy weed..." I looked at his face to see if he's good with the topic. He looks shocked though... 

"Sam, are you sure you want to get weed? You're only 13. I don't want you to get into trouble." He explained and sighed. "I'm just worried about you, okay?" I smiled because he cared for me.

"You know, you can always tell me your problems." His facial expression was serious. I just nod and gave him a reassuring smile.

"I'm fine, just wanna try something new. I mean, 13 is a pretty young age for doing these kinds of things, but...", I stopped there and thought for a second, if I should tell him what happened, "I have a loth of things in my mind and I wanna put my brain somewhere else." I lied and hoped that he won't find it suspicious. Thomas sighed and thought for a while.

"Only this once, okay? I'm not buying anymore afterwards." My face lights up as he agreed and I became excited. 

"Get in the car and wait for me. I'll be right back." He said and I followed his words. I got in the car and watched him walking into the store. A few moments later, he appeared again, but this time with something in his hand.
