Evelyn Freeman was the twin sister of the infamous Amber Freeman. Last year events left Evelyn traumatized and she developed trust issues. I mean who wouldn't? A couple months after the attacks she started to develop feelings for her best friend. T...

We all walked towards the usual spot we sat outside and saw Sam and Tara sitting there. "Thank god." I mumbled to myself, relived that the girls were okay. We sat down beside them and I was the first to speak, "What the hell happened?" I asked.
"Ghostface called us on Sam's off of Richies number." Tara deadpanned, "Wait what?" I asked in disbelief. "Yeah, we were attacked in that corner store down the street for the apartment. After the attack Officer Bailey picked us up so he could make sure we were safe." Sam added.
"Are you guys okay?" Anika asked concerned, "Yeah, we didn't get stabbed or anything." Tara said. We continued to ask the tow girls how they were doing and made sure they were okay before letting Mindy geek out.
"Okay nerds! Listen up! As terrifying as this all is, i'm glad that I get to redeem myself for not calling the killers last time." Mindy said now standing up and I rolled my eyes, "I saw that Eve." Mindy said pointing at me and I laughed. "Okay, the way I see it. Someone is out to make a sequel of the requel." Mindy deadpanned.
"Um what's a requel?" Anika asked confused, "You don't want to know." I mumbled. "Rude. And Anika, you're beautiful sweetie but let's save the questions till the end." Mindy said. "Stab one took place in Woodsboro, Stab two took place in college." Sam said annoyed, "Do we think that the killer is trying to recreate the movies?" Tara asked.
"That is one possibility. Heros now in college, check. Suspicious new characters brought in to round out the suspect list, or the body count, check, check and check." Mindy said pointing towards all the new faces.
"I don't like this." Ethan said and I gave him a sad look, "But this can't just be about Stab two." Mindy added. "Why not?" Tara asked, "It would make sense if this were just a sequel. But we're not in a sequel because nobody just makes sequels anymore! We're in a franchise! And there are certain rules to a continuing franchise!" Mindy explained.
"I had a feeling." Sam mumbled and I laughed, "Everything's bigger in a franchise! Bigger budget! Bigger cast! Bigger body count! Longer chases, shootings, beheadings." Mindy listed. "Beheadings?" Chad asked, "Beheadings!" Mindy said again.
"Rule two! Whatever happened last time, expect the opposite. Franchises only survive by subverting expectations. If the killers last time were whiny, snowflake, film nerds with letter box to counts instead of personality's. You can bet the opposite will be true here." Mindy ranted.
"And rule three, no one if safe. Legacy characters, most likely dead. Only to be killed off in some cheap bid way for nostalgia. So it's not looking to good for Gale and Kirby. Uh, and that's not even the worst part." Mindy said, "And this is the part where she tells us the worst part." Chad said annoyed.
"The worst part is... franchises are just continuing episodic installments designed to boost an IP. Which means, main characters are completely expendable now too. Lori strode, Nancy Thompson, Ellen Rickly, Sally Hardesty, Jig Saw, Tony Stark, James Bond. I mean even Luke Sky Walker even died so their franchises could live on! That means it's not just the friend group, any of us could go at anytime. Especially Sam, Tara an possibly Eve." Mindy added.
"Wait what? I wouldn't say i'm a main character." I denied, "No offends Eve, but you are the twin sister of last years Ghostface." Mindy said i the nicest way possible. "None taken." I said shrinking into my seat."Wait any of us?" Ethan asked in fear, "Am I in the friend group? Am I one of the targets?" he asked and Mindy nodded.
"Am I gonna die a virgin?" he asked and I started laughing, "That was a weird over share, but it brings us to our current suspects. Ethan! The shy dorky guy who no one suspects because he's so shy and dorky." Mindy deadpanned. "Wait why am I on the suspect list? Is it because i'm randomly Chads roommate?" Ethan asked, "Roommate lotteries can be juked, you could've easily fixed it to get next to us." Mindy stated.
"Quinn, the slutty roommate. Horror movie classic." Mindy said insulting the girl, "Sex positive, but... thank you?" Quinn said. "How did you come to live with Sam, Tara and Eve?" she asked, "I answered their add online." she stated.
"Okay! Say no more you've already implicated yourself enough!" Mindy said, "It was an anonymous add Mindy. Plus her dad is a cop. " Tara said annoyed. "And that makes it more likely that she's the killer. Having a dad as a cop is the perfect cover. Do you not know how these movies work Tara!" Mindy yelled.
"She always like this?" Quinn asked and I nodded, "And finally, Anika." Mindy said as they blew a kiss to each other. "Never trust the love interest." she deadpanned and Anikas expression dropped.
"Okay. So we have our rules, and we have our suspects." Sam stated, "Wait, wait, wait. What about you guys?" Ethan asked pointing towards the ones that were a part of last years attacks. "I mean, I think it pretty safe to rule out the five of us who went through this last year in Woodsboro." Mindy said.
"Agreed." Chad said, "I'm not agreed, what if the trauma you went through caused one, or more of you's, to snap?" Quinn pointed out. "Yeah, or the game you got from the killings made you thirsty for more. To be honest here, some of theories online about Sam are-" Ethan said before getting cut off. "Don't you fucking dare." Tara said to the boy as she glared at him.
"Okay but she's right, face facts. If we're all suspects, you're all suspects." Anika pointed out, "You guys are fucking delusional." I mumbled.
We sat there for a little longer, mostly talking about last year's attack. I didn't like the topic whatsoever so I didn't pay much attention. I was examining my surrounding, and just thinking about how pretty nature was. Yeah, I know. That didn't have anything to do with Ghostface at all, but if we were gonna talk about my psychotic twin sister I wasn't going to listen.
I felt someone place their hands on my shoulder so I turned around quickly, I saw that it was only Chad and I relaxed. "We're leaving now, are you okay? You weren't really talking." Chad asked me. "Well the choice of conversation didn't interest me much." I replied and he nodded, "Yeah i'm sorry, I know how you feel when we talk about it. We just wanted to explain everything that happened last year to Ethan, Anika and Quinn so they were in the loop." Chad explained.
"It's fine Chad, im not mad. Wanna go now?" I asked the boy and he nodded before grabbing my hand. We started to walk with the group and went back to the apartment. When we got there we didn't do much, we acted as if Ghostface wasn't back. Anika and Mindy were on the couch watching a show, Ethan and Tara were in Tara's room probably talking about school, Quinn was hooking up with some random guy, and Sam was in her room most likely texting cute boy.
Meanwhile, me and Chad were in my room watching a movie on my bed. Once the movie had ended we heard everyone talking in the living room, we left my room deciding that it would be best to join them. ————————————————————————
