Chapter 1 – Beginning of the End

NOTE: There is going to be some blood in the death scenes but not too much. And change of plans, I'll be using the Japanese version instead. I thought I would use the American version for the trailer only. Try hearing the Japanese one to get a little more scared at this story when the ringtone rings.

I think the chapter title fits the opening for this story, as it's the beginning of the end. This story is going to borrow elements from BOTH versions of the movie.

I will do my best since this is my first ever story of making a Suspense, Horror, and Supernatural story. So I say they are hard to make especially when it's a movie. If you saw that the movie and thought it sucked, then read this as I'll make more understanding and an ending you'll won't be mad of.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything in this story especially the elements I borrow from both Japanese and American version. I own some original work like part of the beginning of the story but you can't tell unless you saw the movie. If you saw both versions, you'll be like "I know that moment" and notice it's slightly different from the original.

It's dark rainy day. People are running and screaming as the roar of flames is heard from a burning hospital. Flames were escaping through doors and windows. The firefighters fight the blaze as people run out. A firefighter then is seen carrying a little girl and putting her down with her feet on the ground leaving her. She had long black hair and was seven years old. A nurse walks by and picks her up. The little girl is clutching onto a teddy bear and mutters, "Mommy." "Mommy? Do you know where your mom is?" the blond nurse asked. (Did you know who is the nurse is?) She shook her head and looks down on her bear holding it tightly.

Sharpay Evans was at her house in the backyard sitting on the porch talking on her cellphone while her dog sat on the table looking around. "Yeah I know. The message I've received on my phone two days ago is exactly today but so far nothing's happen. I don't believe it though," Sharpay says. "No. You don't need to come over. I'm fine on my own right now. I have my own house with my little dog and have a cool backyard pond. Sharpay was talking on Motorola i830while sitting on the table talking to her friend. Sharpay's dog then got off the table and went to the other side of the pond. "Okay. I'll see you tommorow," Sharpay says hanging up her phone and looking at her dog smiling then back to doing her homework and after a second she then hears something and looks to see her dog isn't there anymore. She put downs her work and gets up. "Nancy? Come here girl." No answer or bark. Sharpay then goes to the last spot where her dog was. She looks around and hears something in the pond again. She then bents down between two rocks. As Sharpay drew her face closer to the water she hears her dog and looks up to see her on the other side of the pool. She gets up to get to him when a gray hand comes out quickly that was about to grab her. Sharpay picks up her dog and tell it, "Darn dog. You're playing tricks on me."

Then Sharpay feels something grab her ankle. She has her eyes wide open and slowly looks down. It was a gray hand as it drags her into the pond. "AAAAAAAAAAH!!!!" She quickly gets away from whatever thing she is trying to run as she heads for the surface to get air. "Someone…help me!" Then she is pulled again screaming. She sees someone al dead looking but only got a glance after the person was trying to kill her. Sharpay struggled as bubbles escape her mouth. She then screams again getting away again up to the surface. She sobs and is heading for land when the person's hand grabs her face and directly pulls her to stonewall while dragging her in the water. "What?! NOOO!" BAM! Her head hits hard causing her to die and float in the pond. Blood then drifted into the water causing some parts red. Then a red candy ball falls out of Sharpay's mouth into the pond. The cellphone on the table opens itself open and then it starts to dial someone's number. All was left was the dog and the house. The dog stands by the pond. Looking at her owner all dead. Then the same hand grabs the dog down the pond drowning it.

There was laughter heard from the living room. Gabriella's friend where playing the Xbox 360 she got from her friend for no reason but liked it anyways. Gabriella was making food as she turns on the stove to heat up the pan filled with some oil. Back in the living the room, the game was over and the five friends were done. "Here are some tasty appetizers I just made. It's garlic bread," Gabriella said leaving on the table and heading for the kitchen to clean up. "Thanks Gabriella," Chad said. "You pig. Stop hogging the food," Taylor said stopping him. "Did I ever tell you that Gabriella is afraid looking through holes?" Taylor said telling the others. "No," Kelsi said. "I asked her why but she wouldn't tell me. Don't know why she won't tell her best friend." Gabriella hears the conversion and gets a flashback of a woman putting on nail polish. Then it shows an eye looking into a hole. Gabriella snaps out of it and puts in some rice with some peas and carrots. "Anybody want some fried rice?" Gabriella asked. "Yeah!" her friends yelled out together. She cooks the food until she hears the doorbell rings. "Can you get that Taylor?" Gabriella yelled out. "Sure." Taylor got out her sit and opens the door to find Ryan with a backpack in front of her. "Oh hey Ryan." Ryan ignored her and walked past her. "How rude!" Taylor said crossing her arms.

Vanessa adds the eggs to the rice just finish it. "Dinner is almost ready you guys!" Chad said walking into the kitchen just to get a drink. "Must it be you the one who hungers for food every time?" Gabriella says looking at him. "I'm a dude Gabs. It's what I do," he said walking out with a soda can in his hand. Gabriella turn back to add some salt to finish it. She looks down on her food when a ghostly hand that came from nowhere appears on her left shoulder. Then it slowly moves removing itself causing Gabriella to look back to see Ryan in front of her. "Ryan!" "I just got back from the funeral." "I can tell. You are dress in all black." Gabriella was scared thinking someone other than Ryan was behind her but moved on. They hear the others talking and watching a comedy. "Go upstairs into my room Ry. I'll meet you there." Ryan then headed for the stairs into her room. Gabriella put the rice on a big plate and went into living room to put on the table for people to get. "Get your plates you people." Gabriella then left heading upstairs to Ryan.

She opens the door to find Ryan sitting on her bed. "Can you hand me my backpack. I need to get out of these damn clothes," Ryan said as Gabriella gives him his back and then heads for the bathroom closing the door, he later then gets out in normal clothes. "So how was it?" "Well, having your sister die in her backyard pond at her house doesn't seem quite good don't you think?" Ryan said sitting on the bed with Gabriella. "Sorry. How are your parents taking this?" "Well they are sort of taing it well." Ryan got cut off when a ringtone went on from his cellphone. "My sister maybe snoopy and self-center but she is also caring. Why do you think she became a nurs…" Ryan stopped when he heard something.

(Dan, dann dan dan dann dan dan dann dan dan dan dann dan dan dan dann dan dan dan dan dan dan dan dan dan, dan, dan, dan, dan, da da da, da da da, da da da, da da da, dan da dan da dan da dan da dan da dan da) "That's not my ringtone," Ryan says. "It isn't? If that isn't your ringtone it's creepy me out," Gabriella says. They both go across the room to the small table to get Ryan's phone as the creepy ringtone still plays. Gabriella picks it up to see that it's from. "It says it's from Sharpay," Gabriella says as the cellphone read the name Sharpay. "Huh? How is that possible? She is dead already," Ryan said. Gabriella then heads him his phone. Ryan opens his as the phone lady says, "You have one missed call." "It's dated January 14, 2008 at 10:28 p.m. but today is the eleventh. Did you accidentally change the date wrong?" Gabriella says. "No. Mine as well listen to this message," Ryan says putting it on speaker while they each put their ear near the phone to hear. "Message received on 01/14/08 at 10:28 p.m." They hear bells of a train coming and hear themselves talking. At the beginning of the message they hear a small spray at the beginning of the message. "Don't ever worry about that phone call," Gabriella says to Ryan. "Sorry but it just bothers and scares me," Ryan replies. Then sounds of metal begin to break. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Ryan drops the phone "That's your voice…of you dying," Gabriella said.

The two come downstairs to meet up with the others. "Guys. I think you should hear this message," Gabriella says dropping the phone onto the table. Jason picks it up to turn up the volume as they hear the lady telling, "If you want to hear the message again press 1." Jason pressed as the voice appeared again. "Message received on 01/14/08 at 10:28 p.m." "Don't ever worry about that phone call," Gabriella says to Ryan. "Sorry but it just bothers and scares me," Ryan replies. Then sounds of metal begin to break. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" "What the hell?!" Jason said. "What's up with that freaky message?" Chad said. "I don't know but it said it was from Sharpay," Ryan said. Everyone looked out her thinking she was crazy. "Brie, Sharpay is dead. I can hardly believe this crap. The dead can't call. Does everyone agree?" Chad said. Everyone did agree while Ryan and Gabriella stand there. "But the message seemed real to me," Gabriella says. "Forget about Gabriella. It's just someone trying to fool you two thinking Ryan will die or something like that," Chad said as they rest continue to watch TV. "What do you think Ryan?" Gabriella says. "I don't know but I've never heard anyone dying from a cellphone. I think Chad is right. We should just leave it," Ryan said. "I guess you're right. Well it's Friday, lets get with the others already." Ryan and Gabriella head back into living room ignoring the whole message thing. Little did they know, there were more things going to happen after that message was heard.

Thanks for reading of something I'm trying to be new at instead of your usual romance and drama stories I always do. This is the first updated story of 2008 for me. Sorry for the long hiatus. Like I said in the trailer, I didn't have that spark to write my stories anymore until this month. So wait. I know school is drawing near very soon but I'm working very hard by staying up until 3:00 a.m. but I would end up waking up with my laptop in front of me with the screen open.

Anyways, REVIEW everyone
