Author's Note: Being inspired by the Scream TV series is the reason I'm here. This idea has been embroidered in my brain for quite some time, now I can finally write it out. Seeing as the show is coming to an end on TeenNick and we're getting ready to say goodbye to the characters we've known forever, I'm mainly gonna focus on these characters in not only this story, but my other stories. I love all the seniors and even people before them such as Owen, Fiona, Katie, Jake, etc. They will also be featured in this story. Enjoy and be sure to leave me good feedback.

Ch-One: To Lose What Was Once Loved

Alli slammed the phone down, huffing in annoyance. Once again, she and Dallas were arguing. Dallas had to go out of town for the weekend. Vanessa had want him to come spend time with Rocky, which was understandable. Alli wasn't going to stop him from seeing his son, but this weekend was supposed to be special. Their anniversary was coming up and Alli had spent all her money making reservations for an exquisite hotel for just the two of them. She had it planned to the "t", wanting it to be perfect with no flaws involved.

With Jenna being gone with Connor, and her parents being away for a few days, Alli had the house to herself. She had invited Dallas to come by, but after he told her about canceling for the weekend, she made him stay at home. She didn't want to see Dallas' face tonight; being angry with him had made her not even want to speak to him for the rest of the weekend.

Was she being selfish and full of herself? Of course, Alli knew that. She knew that his son came first, but she was hoping it would be different this time. After all, she was ready to give Dallas something that the both of them would love. She was ready to share her body with him after making the both of them wait for so long. She knew he was that special one, because she hadn't jumped into bed with him. She kept her guard up and made him wait.

The loud banging sound coming from downstairs startled Alli. Jumping, she hopped to her feet and slowly tiptoed to her door. She quietly cracked open the door, wincing as the creaking sound filled her ears.

Alli peeked through the door, scanning the dimly lit hallway to see if anyone was around. When she saw no one, she opened her bedroom door all the way and stepped out into the hallway.

"Jenna? Is that you?" she asked, hearing her voice tremble with fear.

Surely she was paranoid. Being home alone has always made her feel that way. She would hear random cracks echo through the house sometimes, giving her chills. Alli knew it was just her jitters bothering her, once again. She would have to grow over the fear of being home alone at night.

But when Jenna didn't respond, it made her heart suddenly thump with fright.

"Jenna, if this is you, stop playing. You know how I feel about this," she grumbled, walking down the steps leading to her living room.

There was no sight of the bubbly blonde anywhere. This made Alli nervous. Jenna was never big on being a prankster, so this made Alli question the noise she heard. If Jenna was not here, what was that loud banging noise and where did it come from?

Taking one step towards the kitchen, Alli suddenly felt a pair of hands grab her. Her eyes widened with fear and her mouth to let out a loud scream. Darting up the steps, Alli ran into her room and closed the door behind her. Gasping for air, she searched around the room for her phone which had suddenly went missing. Crying, she crawled underneath the bed and covered her mouth with her trembling hand.

Heavy footsteps dragged up the steps. Alli's body shook with fear, wondering who on earth was trying to kill her. One by one, she heard the doors being opened. When the door opened to her room, she choked back a gasp. Silent tears poured down her face. She closed her eyes, praying that she would not get caught. When the room goes silent and the door closes, she lets out a sigh of relief, thankful that she outsmarted the killer. Alli crawls from underneath the bed and dusts off her clothes. When she finally looks up, she comes face to face with the killer.

She opens her mouth to scream, but gets grabbed. She's clawing at the killer, but her throat gets sliced. She gasps for air, but a gurgling sound only escapes her. Clutching her throat, she tries to prevent the blood from spilling out, but it's too much. Dropping to her knees, Alli falls to the floor and takes her last breath.

...

Jenna kisses Connor goodbye as she climbs out of the car. Closing the door behind her, she skips on the porch and goes into her purse, searching for her keys. Once she finds them, she unlocks the front door and steps inside. Closing the door, she calls out to Alli, hoping that she's up.

Tonight was a wonderful night for her. Connor took her out to the science center and then, they had a picnic under the stars. As he told her the story of the stars, she couldn't help but think how amazing he was. Though he was nerdy, she thought he was the sweetest thing. After what happened between she and K.C., she never thought she's find someone else. No one wanted a girl who had a baby, but Connor had proved her wrong. Despite her past, Connor didn't look at her any different and that made her love him.

He was different.

When Alli didn't answer, Jenna assumed she was sleep. Going up the steps, she goes to the bathroom to wash off her makeup before going into she and Alli's room. When she walks into the room, she sees the lights are off. Flicking on the light, her breath hitches and her legs suddenly goes weak. Her best friend is lying in bed with her throat cut open. On the wall is written, in blood, RUN! YOU'RE NEXT.

Covering her mouth, Jenna let's out a blood curling scream.

...

"I can't believe my best friend is gone," Clare sobs into Adam's shoulder.

Adam wrapped his arm around Clare, stroking her hair. It was reported on the news this morning that Alli had been murdered. Jenna was the one who had found her. Everyone in Degrassi was shocked. It was hard to not know who Alli Bhandari is. Entering her first year of high school, she had a reputation. Growing up, she slowly stripped herself from that reputation and everyone saw her as smart with a good head on her shoulders. Like her best friend, Clare, she was an overachiever.

Poor Jenna; they can only imagine how hard it was on her. She found her best friend lying lifeless in bed. It must have been so traumatizing. With the absence of the blonde today, no one who isn't close to Jenna will know how she and the Bhandari's are holding up.

Adam can only imagine how Clare is feeling. She and Alli have been friends since their freshman year. The two have argued and fought a few times, but they always made up. The two were inseparable and were always there for each other. Losing yet another person was hard for Clare. She recently had a miscarriage with she and Eli's child, causing a strain to their new relationship. Still dealing with the loss of her unborn son was hard; adding the loss of her best friend was even harder.

"Want to skip school and go for a cruise?" Adam offered. "I'm sure Simpson wouldn't mind since we're dealing with a loss."

"Anything is better than being here," she croaked. "Everything reminds me of her."

Adam grabs Clare's hand, leading her to the front door. Just when they're about to leave, they see Drew walking towards them.

After finding out Drew wasn't the father and he exploded on Clare, causing Adam to be uncomfortable with being in the middle of the feud. He tried to stay civil and not choose sides, but the two made it difficult. Clare would always wail about how she was going to tell Drew, but Dallas beat her to it, making it seem as if she was never going to tell him. Drew argued, in his defense, that Clare was a lying manipulate whore who almost made him take care of a child that was never his in the first place.

"Look," Drew says, clearing his throat awkwardly, "I know you and I aren't on the greatest terms, but I am so sorry about Alli. I know how much she meant to you."

Clare looks over at Adam, tears filling her eyes once again. She clutches tightly to him before whimpering, "Get me out of here, please."

Adam nods his head, leading his distraught best friend out of the school. The two walks to his car and climb in. Putting the key in the ignition, Adam drives the two away from the school without a clear destination in mind.
