A/N: Well here it is… the newest story from me. I know the anticipation probably was too much but I am hoping it will be worth the wait. Before I get going into the story I just want to say thank you. I heard from a little birdy that I was nominated for the BTR fanfic award for "Inside Your Heaven"… that is so amazing. Thank you everyone who nominated and voted for me. I am just kind of sad that I wasn't able to write this story before the nominations were announced because I feel like this story could be my best yet. If you haven't read the preview I uploaded to Inside Your Heaven then I will post it here as well…. I hope you enjoy "Campus Killer"
Carolina Bay College (CBC) was just your everyday normal college. The students there were just average college students. You have your jocks, who are the top of the chain, along with the popular girls. There are your Greeks who feel they rule the school. Along with the rich kids who literally "rule the school." Just like any high school or college in the US, this school comes with your class clowns, flirty girls, geeks, and freaks, and maybe the occasional normal person. However, unlike other schools CBC, is home to a killer, someone walking on the same campus as everyone else, the only problem being that no one knows it yet. Events take a turn for the worse when a normal spring break turns into a killing frenzy. Will the students at CBC make it out alive to see their much anticipated spring break, or will they fall victim to "The Campus Killer"?

Campus Killer
Chapter 1: Drama
The sound every college student dreads to hear rang off and filled the small dorm room which was located on the Carolina Bay College campus in North Carolina. Well almost every college student hated hearing it.
Logan Mitchell rolled over in his bed and turned the alarm off before getting out of bed and starting another week of class, the week before spring break. He starts his day doing the same routine he does every day: shower, brush teeth, get dressed and get breakfast, all before going to his first class of the day. To Logan school never got old, he loved waking up every day and going to all of his classes, and he wasn't looking forward to the day when he graduates and is done with school.
Walking to class he passes people who he knows but they don't seem to give him the light of day. One of them including James Diamond. By the looks of it, you wouldn't know that Logan and James went to the same high school. James had always been the attractive popular guy and Logan was the nerdy quiet kid, and even in college those labels stayed with you.
Logan walked passes James and gave him an acknowledging nod, which James chose to ignore and continued talking to the girl with him, who Logan knew to be his girlfriend Camille Brooks. Logan didn't give a second glance when James didn't return the hello since he was used to being ignored and pushed away by people. There was however a shimmer of happiness when he walked into the classroom and saw his best friend Harper already there waiting for class to start.
"Hey Harper." Logan said as he sat in the desk next to her.
"Hi Logan. Did you finish the homework for anatomy?" Harper asked as she put down the book she was reading. They were both pre-med majors, which made life so much better for both of them, having a best friend who was the same major was something that everyone wished they had.
"Yeah, I finished it last night." Logan said as he and Harper continued their conversation.
"Is something wrong?" Harper asked.
"No, I'm just tired of all the drama and ignorance people have here. I just don't understand why, that even though we are in college, people act like they are still in high school and only act as though the only people alive are the ones who are in their 'clique'."
"Well some people never change. Well look on the bright side, unlike all those people, you have me as a best friend." Harper said as she flashed Logan a grin.
"Yeah, you're right." Logan said as he smiled back at Harper and they continued their conversation.
As the two continued talking Logan noticed Carly Shay walk in the room. Since it was a small school, it isn't that hard to know who everyone in your year is, only if you were willing to get to know who they were.
"Good morning Carly, how is everything with Justin?" Logan asked as Carly took a set behind him and Harper.
"Oh, hey Logan. Yeah it's good. He's really busy though. He is always working on things for the fraternity or studying, but when we do see each other it's great." Carly said as she looked up from her phone to address Logan, and then went right back to texting someone, until the professor walked in and class started.
It was mid afternoon and everyone on campus was going to get food, and the only place was the cafeteria. Groups of students sat with their group of friends and the cafeteria was filled with laughter and voices as they all conversations with each other. But the one table that seemed to be the loudest was the one that Carlos Garcia sat at with his friends and his girlfriend Lulu Johnson. Everyone seemed to turn their attention to this table when a sudden burst of laughter filled the room, obvious that it was Carlos who was the cause of it.
At a table not too far away sat a group of upperclassmen: Justin , Jett Stetson, and Felix Garcia included.
"Looks like your cousin is making an idiot out of himself again." Justin said.
"Yup, why can't he realize that this is college and the class clown act won't get him anywhere in life." Felix said as he got up from the table and headed in the direction of where the majority of the noise was coming from.
"Hey Carlos, I need to talk to you."
"What's up Felix?" Carlos asked as they sat down at an unoccupied table.
"Look you're in college now and it's time to grow up. You can't keep being that immature jokester who doesn't take anything seriously."
"Why do you always call me immature? Ever since we were little you would always call me a kid even though you're only a year older than me. I know this is college, and excuse me for trying to enjoy it. I don't need you telling me how to live my life; I don't care if I embarrass you. Get over it, and maybe you just need to loosen up a little bit." Carlos said as he got up from the table and left the cafeteria, walking past the janitor, who was cleaning a spill nearby, and a kid who just entered.
Jake Collins walked inside the building in enough time as to not be run over by a frustrated kid. After he got his food, he walked to the first table he saw, which had a kid sitting at it alone. Jake sat down across from the kid and introduced himself.
"Hey, I'm Jake Collins, I just transferred here."
"Good for you, even though I have no idea why you would want to come to a messed up school like this." The kid said looking up from his food.
"What do you mean?" Jake asked.
"Do you not see how screwed up everyone is and how no one cares for anyone outside their 'group'? You better get used to it or find some friends fast because if you don't you'll end up an outsider like me with no one to talk to."
"Well if this school is so bad then why are you still here?"
"Because I have something to live up to. You'll figure everything out soon enough. By the way my name's Freddie Benson, I have a feeling we will meet again." Freddie said as he stood up and left Jake alone at the table, speechless.
Kendall Knight, star hockey captain for the CBC Sharks was on the rink shooting the puck, the one place he felt comfortable. He was blowing off steam by firing the puck into the net, his friend Jimmy Madigan was nearby watching.
"Hey, I didn't see you at the party last night, what happened?" Jimmy asked as he passed the pucks back to Kendall.
"It's Jo. I saw her phone and there was a message on it from some guy. She's cheating on me and she won't admit it." Kendall said as he skated over to Jimmy.
"Are you sure she's cheating on you? I mean it could be something completely different."
"No I'm sure and I intend on confronting her right now." Kendall said as he saw Jo walk into the rink and he skated over to her.
"Hey Kendall, why weren't you at the party last night?" Jo asked when Kendall met her at the edge of the rink.
"I think you know why Jo. You've been cheating on me. I saw your phone, so don't try to deny it. Why would you do that to me! I have done nothing but treat you the way you deserve, and you have the nerve to go and sleep with some other guy!" Kendall yelled, his voice echoing in the rink.
"Kendall please, I'm sorry. I was thinking, just please I regret it and I won't do it again." Jo said, with tears filling her eyes.
"No. Don't waste your breath, we are done. I don't want to put myself through this again." Kendall said as he skated off the ice and into the locker room as Jo sat down on the bench, crying into her hands.
On the soccer field, the girl's soccer team was holding tryouts for the new season and Alex Russo was about to tryout. The coach was observing all the girls, with the captain, Sam Puckett, close by also watching the players.
After some final mental inspirations, Alex took off dribbling the ball between her feet before firing it into the net, right past the goalie. All the other girls stood in awe at the shot she took and the coach walked over, giving her a spot on the team right there, which she quickly accepted. The team was walking off the field, but Alex was called back by Sam.
"Hey Russo."
"Yeah?" Alex said as she turned around to see Sam standing there with her arms crossed against her chest.
"I don't care how good a player you are. If you want a spot on my team then you are going to have to earn it."
"Okay, but just to let you know, you don't intimidate me. I can and will be on this team, and by the looks of it I may even take your spot as captain." Alex said as she turned and walked off the field leaving Sam raging with fury.
Haylee Steele felt on top of the world. She had just been elected class president and never felt better. And to make things even better she was talking to Jett Stetson, the guy she had a crush on the moment she saw him on walking through campus. While she was having her conversation with Jett, she saw over his shoulder two sets of eyes staring daggers at her. When she said her goodbye to Jett, the bodies that the eyes belonged to starting moving into her direction.
"You don't think we see what you did?" Tori Vega asked as she stood next to True Jackson, who clearly didn't like Haylee.
"What are you talking about?" Haylee asked, not breaking eye contact with True.
"The whole world could see how flirty you were with Jett. A blind person could see that you obviously slept with him in order to rig the votes to win president, because there is no other explanation that could prove that you could win over me. I worked my ass off to try to win and you have the nerve to sleep with the college president's son in order to win." True said getting even angrier with Haylee.
"What? I never slept with Jett, we are just friends. And how dare you accuse me of something like that." Haylee said getting annoyed with True's attitude.
"Sure, you're 'just friends', but don't think I can't see through your little web of lies. You better watch your back Steele because this is not over." True said as she glared into Haylee's eyes, then leading Tori in the other direction.
A/N: Whew, the first chapter is done. I know it was a lot to handle with all the characters but soon the killings will begin and the number will start to dwindle. I hope you all like this chapter and I am more than happy to read your reviews to see what you think might happen in future chapters. Feel free to write your ideas and theories as to how the story ends, and don't worry I won't let them influence my writing because I have already decided how it will end. Thank you all for being fans of my writing and be sure to be on the lookout for chapter 2 which should be up sometime later in the week.
