Welcome to Gaia! ::

I posted this in a contest and decided that I should post it here in case the contest ever gets deleted. Well, here is Drunken Misconception

__Isa walked home an a cloudless night; the moon shone brightly through the fog. She had left the sounds of the city behind her, knowing that the real party was outside. Nothing could ruin her night of cruelty. Not this year.
__She was going to be the "bell of the ball", only this ball was one of terror. All Hallow's Eve had come around once more, and she wanted the world to know she was still the queen. Nothing topped the queen.
__She glanced over her shoulder. No one could follow her. This party was only for those who were invited. It was the most exclusive party of the year. She had to be sure that those who followed her were punished.
__From a block away the blaring sounds of Ozzy and Manson could be heard over the screams. This was one haunted house most would avoid.
__She entered the house after passing the men at the gates; all they had to do was see her face. "Step inside, Madame Dervois." The first thing she was greeted with was a staircase. She gathered her skirts and climbed the thirteen stairs into the main hallway. The sound of chainsaws filled her ears over the music. Several screams of fright sounded through the hallway; girls ran out of one of the rooms. They were chased by her friends who were the ones behind the noisy saws. She stepped into the room to find it covered with "blood" she knew was fake.
__She touched it to find that it was quite warm; they were getting better. She looked around her to see a body on the floor. She shook the boy to wake him up; he wouldn't move. He was warm. Her fingers were once more covered in the blood-like liquid. She raised them to her lips; they tasted of salt and iron; it wasn't fake.
__ Her pupils dilated as she realized this was her best friend who was lying at her feet. The gash across his neck wasn't fake; who had the chainsaw? She looked around the room for some other clue. The only other clue was another lump across the room. She did not know the girl.
__The sound of a saw ripped in her ears as she realized the murderer was at the doorway. In the dim lighting, she couldn't see who it was. There was a table separating the two, and when the man moved it was easily done away with. She screamed a blood churning scream as the splintered wood flew at her.
__He backed her into a wall; she had no escape. "What do you want from me?!" she screamed at him. He laughed at her behind the drone of Thunder Underground. She was thrown into the light of the strobe in another room, she could see the stairs. The man lurked toward her, keeping to the shadows.
__She kicked him to the chest and ran for it, stumbling at the threshold of the door. She regained herself and continued, until a second marauder came. She screamed and ran back the other way as the second man chased her. There was a second way out of the house.
__With each step the house shook under her momentum; it was very old. The crystal chandelier fell to the floor with a deafening crash. Shards of stone sliced into her skin. The seeping blood only added to her fear. She could hear the men behind her as she ran down the back stairs into the dining room.
__Her exit was blocked by a fallen grandfather clock; she didn't know if she caused it to fall of if one of the men had purposely blocked it. All she knew was that was the only way out.
__The men had found her. The man who had killed her best friend was closest. "Don't come near me!" she screamed. She grabbed a plate and threw it. The man merely sliced through the porcelain with his chain saw. The china tore into her face, more droplets flecked onto her dress.
__She grabbed a knife; he was approaching her. She ran toward him; he side stepped her first attack. The saw ate at the sleeve of her gown. She had gashes from the teeth in her arm. The pain seared through her from head to foot.
__She ran at him again; he was ten feet away from her. The other man made a scrapping sound on the rug covered wooden floor; she tripped. She heard laughing as pain spiked through her chest. She felt warm liquid soak through the dress that has long been ruined. Darkness pulsed at her; ebbing her into the abyss.


It turns out that Isa's boyfriend (Todd) was the one behind all of the gore; he and his friend had been out earlier that night smoking weed and drinking booze at another friend's house. They got a hold of chainsaws from Todd's shed. Neither had the intention of killing anyone. Isa's best friend got into an argument with Todd over the drinking in the first room. It was Todd's friend who had pulled a knife and sliced his throat, not knowing he had a chainsaw in his hand.

The girl was an innocent bystander who witnessed it all. She was in the wrong place at the wrong time. When the other girls had heard her scream they came to see what was wrong; the haunted house hadn't started yet. They were slaughtered because they had seen what Todd's friend had done.

Isa had tripped and stabbed herself, not knowing she wasn't in any danger at all. Todd was just trying to give her a night to remember; he thought she wouldn't check the bodies to see if they were dead. It was their one year anniversary.

Good Plan. I was wondering about that. ^^. Good theory after all. It made sense to post it here.
