Scream 4

Chapter One: Don't Investigate Suspicious Noises

Author's Note: I've always been a scream fan and have wanted to do a Scream fic as it was my favorite slasher movie series as a kid and since seeing the trailer, I've gotten the inspiration I've needed to finally do it. Just so you know, Lucy Hale is Patty and Shenae Grimes is Marnie. Hope you enjoy!

"So when are your parents coming home?" Miarnie asked, walking into Patty's kitchen, opening the fridge and grabbing a cold cola. "I'm not sure. Late probably. Around one in the morning?" Patty answered, sitting at the counter, flipping through a magazine. "You think we can sneak Seth in?" Marnie smiled. "We are not bringing your boyfriend here. Tonight was supposed to be just you and me." Patty protested in a whiney voice. "Fine, but don't get angry if he just happens to show up. I did tell him I was spending the night here." Marnie said. "Why did you do that? Now he'll definitely show up. Probably try to catch us having a pillow fight." Patty protested. "Then let's not disappoint." Marnie laughed, drinking her soda.

Ring. Ring. Ring. Patty reached for the telephone on the kitchen counter after placing a bag of popcorn in the microwave. "Marconi Residence, Patty speaking." Patty said, Marnie laughing at her best friend. "Hello, is Casey home?" A voice asked. "I'm sorry, there's no one here by that name." Patty answered. "I was really hoping to talk to her." The voice said. "She doesn't live here. Sorry for the inconvenience." Patty said, getting ready to hang up. "Wait, can I ask you a question for a survey I'm taking?" The voice asked quickly. "What is it?" Patty asked. "Do you like scary movies?" He asked, Patty sighing. "Hold on," Patty said into the phone, passing it to Marnie, "It's for you."

"Hello?" Marnie asked into the phone, Patty pulling the popcorn out of the microwave and pouring it into a bowl. "Who's this?" The voice asked, Marnie smiled as she and Seth did this to each other frequently. "I'm Tiffany, Who is this?" Marnie laughed, walking over to the living room with the bowl of popcorn in her hand. Patty brought more cans of soda and set them on the table. "What movie do you want to watch?" Patty whispered, Marnie shrugging her shoulders. "It's the person who'd like to see you out of that outfit." The voice said.

"Very funny Seth." Marnie laughed self-consciously. "I mean, I won't be able to see the blood stains when I cut you in such a dark color." The voice said, Marnie's stomach dropping. "Seth, seriously, cut it out." Marnie said. "I'm not Seth." The voice quickly added. "Screw you asshole." Marnie said, hanging up the phone and slamming it on the couch. "Get a comedy." Marnie called out to Patty, crossing her arms across her chest. Ring. Ring. Ring. "He better be calling to apologize." Marnie muttered, grabbing the phone and answering. "Hello?" Marnie asked, waiting for the response. "Do you know whose house you're in Bitch? Casey Becker. That Bitch didn't know how to follow directions either. Hang up on me again and-" The voice said before Marnie hung up, groaning at Seth's immaturity.

Patty entered her bedroom, walking over to her bookcase where her movie collection and ran her fingers through the titles, trying to find the comedy Marnie asked for. She pulled out a few before the sound of running water caught her attention. "Is anyone there?" Patty asked as she approached her bathroom. "Hello?" Patty asked quietly as she slowly opened her Bathroom door. She eyed the sink running full blast, glancing around the room, expecting to see someone hiding. She stood at the door for several seconds before rushing into the bathroom, turning off the sink.

"Is anyone here?" Patty asked, turning towards her shower and reaching out to pull the curtain back. She hesitated for a few seconds before pulling the curtain back, revealing an empty shower. Patty gave a sigh of relief. She laughed a little at how paranoid she was before the bathroom door slammed shut behind her. She spun around and saw a person dressed in the Ghost face costume which had spun her little town into fame.

"Who are you?" Patty asked, the person unsheathing a knife from their back. "This isn't funny." Patty muttered, stumbling backwards as the ghost face came nearer. "I'm serious." Patty pleaded her back against the wall. The person lifted the knife thrusting it into her abdomen, covering her mouth at the same time to keep her from screaming. Patty whimpered, tears streaming down her face as she tried to scream as loud as she could to no avail. Her assailant pulled the blade out and thrust it into her once again, her blood dripping everywhere as she fell to the floor, limp.

Author's Note: What will happen to Marnie downstairs? Will she make it out alive? Probably not. Will i stop asking questions to which you don't know the answer to? Yeah. I'm done. I'm hoping to have this done by the time the movie premieres in April 15th but I'm not the best at frequent updates so no promises but I do have the next few chapters outlined. Anyways, please review, I accept flames and Constructive Criticism.
