                                     Abby's POV

"I'm home!" I shouted as soon as I walked through my door. I waited a good ten seconds.. and of course there's no reply.

"Another night alone."

Both of my parents worked all of the time and my older brother always ran off with his girlfriend after school. He goes to college here in Woodsboro, so he lives at home, but he's never here. I put my backpack down on the floor and took off my shoes, putting them next to the front door.

I walked into the kitchen adorned with sage green cabinets and marble countertops, which I love but my everyone else in the house hates. I put some Jiffy-Pop on the stove when I heard the phone ring from my living room.

I walked into the living room and picked up the phone, "Hello?"

"Hello, Abigail." The caller sounded strange; I couldn't recognize the voice.

"Hi, uh, who is this?"

"You tell me."

"Stu? Randy? Is it one of you guys?"

I heard rustling on the other end of the phone.

"Hello?" I questioned, again.

"HEY ABBY!!" Stu screamed through the phone.

I jumped in surprise, "Jesus Stu! That's the second time you've scared the shit out of me today."

"Sorry darlin', Billy just wanted to check if the voice changer was actually scary. Guess it is." I hear his cute little laugh come through the phone.

"Of course I got scared Stu! You guys never showed me what the voice changer sounds like. Is Billy there with you?"

"Hey Abby," I could hear Billy's voice over the phone.

"Yeah he's here. We're about to go slice and dice, you wanna come?" Stu said, quoting Randy from lunch.

"I don't know Stu, I feel bad scaring Sidney like this."

"Oh come on, it'll be fun! We weren't actually planning on killing her tonight anyways. We're just gonna give her a good scare."

I contemplated my choices and decided that I wanted to stay out of it this time, "Not tonight Stu. But call me when you get back, okay?"

"Alright babe. Bye."

"Bye."

                                     Stu's POV

As soon as Abby hung up the call, Billy and I walked over to Sidney's house. The plan was for me to sneak into her hallway closet while Billy hung around on the side of her house. I was gonna do the chasing, while Billy did the calling.

I quietly snuck in through one of the downstairs windows and I made my way over to the closet. I wasn't expecting to see Sidney sleeping on the couch. I saw her shifting in her sleep so I quickly ran into the closet and closed the door.

I heard the phone ring. This was it.

I couldn't hear what Sidney was saying; she was too far away. I waited for a few minutes but I didn't hear Sidney at all.

I heard the phone ring again.

"Theyre all the same. Some stupid killer stalking some big-breasted girl who can't act, whos always running up the stairs when she should be going out the front door. It's insulting."

Sidney started walking in my general direction, I could hear what she was saying more clearly. She has to be talking to Billy now, I bet that was Tatum calling her the first time. Her voice started to become muffled again, she was walking away.

"Why would you be calling from my front porch?" Sidneys voice had changed. She was scared. Perfect.

"Oh yeah? Well I call your bluff." She said. I heard her unlatch and open the front door.

She was out there for a few minutes, but then she closed the door. It was my time to shine. I sprung out of the closet, knife in my hand, and started swinging my knife at Sidney.

She kept kicking me and she knocked me over. I eventually got on top and slammed her head into the wooden floor. I ran my knife across her throat and down her chest. I was about to stab her but she kicked me in the stomach and ran up the stairs. I quickly recovered, chasing her all the way up to her bedroom. She locked me out. Damn her!

I was trying to get in, but I figured the cops would show up soon and I didn't want to get caught. Billy warned me that if I got caught, he would kill me himself. I jolted my way back down the stairs, taking off the ghost face costume. I ran out of the front door and away from Sidney's house, heading over to Abby's place.
