Chapter 1- Prologue-

12:00 PM-
Johnny Zacchara was on the run in the small town of Crystal Lake with a large, powerful, cold-blooded killer named Jason chasing him down; Jason Morgan that is. Morgan was an enforcer for the Corinthos mob, and Sonny Corinthos, the don, had ordered a hit on Johnny. Johnny was a dead man if he couldn't get help. It was a well known fact that Jason Morgan never missed his mark. Johnny snuck into an alley between a gas station and a drug store (both of which were clearly out of business), and dialed a number he had never expected to call. The dial tone rang. No answer. Was this it? Was this how his life was going to end, at the hands of a mob? The dial tone continued to ring. There was still no answer. Suddenly the alley seemed much smaller to Johnny and much darker. It dawned on him that this alley could be his grave. No, that was preposterous. They were way too professional to bury the son of a crime lord in an alley. They would probably dice up his corpse like an onion, burn the pieces and bury him in some remote forest nearby. In this ghost town, there's plenty of space for that. Finally someone answered the phone, and it was a voice that Johnny had never been so happy to hear: his father, Anthony.
"Who the hell is this?" The aged don asked in a gruff voice.
Johnny laughed. Funny at a time like this. "Check the caller id, dad."
"What do you want, more money? Can't you just wait for my Will, you impatient son of a bitch?"
That would have stung, if Johnny wasn't used to this type of treatment from his father. "No dad, I need help. Sonny sent Jason Morgan after me. I need backup, now!" Johnny heard the screeching of tires, not too far away, a quarter-mile at most. He sighed "Never mind, it's too late. He's going to find me, regardless…"
The horrible cackling of the sadistic old bastard on the other line taunted his doomed son. "Nonsense, son, I have to send guys to pick you up. But first, do you wanna be buried, cremated, or both? You know what? I think I'll just let Sonny bury ya!"
Anthony hung up, and Johnny knew it was over. That didn't mean he had to accept it. He pulled a loaded automatic glock out of his jacket as he heard a nearby vehicle slow to a stop. Johnny's hands were shaking. Tears began falling from his eyes, as his life flashed before his eyes. His horrible, mob related life. His childhood was tormented by his abusive father, who always said he wasn't good enough, and the only person who made his life endurable was his sister, Claudia, who was bashed in the head and killed because of Sonny's actions. That's why Johnny joined the mob, to get vengeance on Sonny. It's funny, how Johnny grew up to be just like the people he always hated. And now, it was over.
Johnny's train of thought was interrupted by the sound of footsteps getting louder and louder until he saw the large silhouette of a man at the end of the alley. Johnny raised his glock, but not before Jason did the same. The last thing Johnny saw was the firing of Jason Morgan's desert eagle. You should have seen the size of the exit wound on the back of Johnny's head.
12:02—Back in Port Charles, NY-
Todd Manning was anything but an average man, despite his appearance. He was about six feet tall, had an average build and medium length brown hair. His only outstanding feature, besides his expensively tailored clothing, was the crescent shaped scar under his right cheekbone. It was a scar he received nearly twenty years ago, when he raped a woman in college and she fought back. That was just one example of the evil Todd was capable of. Now he spent his days staying in the Metro Court hotel in Port Charles, hoping for the slightest chance for redemption. What changed him was his wife, Blair, the mother of his children leaving him because of his terrible habits. Regardless of how good he was at hard, how good his intentions were, he would always do something terrible, break her heart, and she would be gone. He always said he could and would change, that he wouldn't hurt her or anyone else ever again. He meant it, and she believed him. But he's proved thus far that no matter how hard he tried, he could never change. Blair knew it too. So this time, there was no coming back.
But tonight, redemption was not his concern. It was Halloween and Todd needed to find something suitable to wear for his scary movie night with his sexy landlord, Carly. As Todd readied to shovel through his dresser to search, he noticed a plastic hockey mask lying on the dresser with a note attached to it. Todd picked up the note and it read:
Hi, dad. Figured you would want to dress up for your favorite holiday so here's a mask for you. I went with Michael to camp Crystal Lake for the night. I guess he wanted to get into the holiday spirit.
"Or your pants," Todd said aloud as he read.
I'll be back tomorrow. And don't worry about paying me back for the mask. It was only like $10.
Love Starr.
This did not particularly please Manning. It's not the location that bothered him. Everybody knew that Friday the 13th movie was fake. The real problem was that Todd didn't trust Starr's boyfriend, but nothing could be done about it because Carly was Michael's mother. Talk about inconvenient. Why didn't Todd trust Michael? It was because Sonny Corinthos, Port Charles' most notorious mobster, was Michael's father. Talk about dangerous, and when Todd Manning of all people can call someone dangerous, there's no denying it. Little did Todd know, there was someone even more dangerous out there, and he wears a mask very similar to Todd's.
-END OF CHAPTER 1-
Author's note: Wow, what a great start. With hit man/enforcer Jason Morgan killing in Jason Voorhees' territory, it's clear where the story's going. Who will win? Will the traveling college couple's presence change the outcome? What does Todd Manning have anything to do with this? You'll have to see. Please review.
Also, in case anybody is confused, this story has 2 characters by the name of Jason. Jason Morgan, the mob enforcer, and Jason Voorhees, psycho, superhuman slasher. There are also 2 characters by the name of Michael. Michael Corinthos, mob prince and Starr Manning's boyfriend, and Michael Myers, psycho, superhuman slasher. Again, please review.
