THE NEXT DAY had finally arrived for the people of Woodsboro as they listened to the news of what had happened just the night before. Teenagers were riding their bikes and skateboards along the streets as they headed to school, police vehicles driving all around as they kept an eye out for anyone who could be a suspect.
The three teenagers could be seen sitting in the Riley household in the kitchen as Tatum and Dewey's mother finished up their breakfast. The television was on, the news echoing throughout the kitchen as they spoke about the events that happened to Maureen Prescott last year, even showing a video of the man found guilty for her murder.
At the reminder of this and the sight of Cotton Weary on the television screen, Sidney shook her head as she looked down at the table, feeling both Y/n and Tatum reach over to rub her shoulder. Dewey could be seen on the other side of the kitchen, putting the phone back before he grabbed the remote, turning off the TV.
"It's never gonna stop, is it?" Sidney speaks up.
Dewey sits down on the other side of Y/n. "Billy was released. His cellular bill was clean. He didn't make those calls. We're checking every cellular account in the county. Any calls made to you two or Casey are being cross-referenced. It's gonna take some time, but we'll find him."
Staring down at her lap, Y/n only nods to his words as Tatum reaches over to gently punch Sidney in the arm, telling them that it'll be okay. Eventually, the four of them all found themselves inside of Dewey's car as he drove them to school, news reporters and students being seen all out front.
Sidney moved to the side once she was out of the car from the back, Y/n right behind her. Once both of them were out, they were immediately ambushed by a news reporters, though Dewey stepped in between them as Tatum grabbed both girls, moving them away and towards the school building as they ignored the reporter.
However, they didn't make it too far when Sidney stopped, grabbing both their arms, her gaze somewhere else. Y/n and Tatum looked at her curiously before following where she had been looking, seeing she was staring right at Gale Weathers in her van. Telling them to give her a second, she walks towards the reporter.
It's only a couple of minutes before Tatum and Y/n intervened, leading Sidney away before Gale could get the camera rolling. The hallways were crowded as they ventured in the direction of their lockers, meeting Stu halfway, who had came up behind the girls to wrap his arms around his girlfriend. After a little bit, they all stood at their lockers together.
