A/N: Sorry for how long this took to release, my beta reader has been busy with school and work has been kicking my ass lately. But anyways, here's the start of the bloodbath. Hope you enjoy.
Nebula knocked on the door and waited, her team standing behind her.
The door opened up, revealing Cardin, dressed in an unbuttoned oxford shirt, muscle shirt underneath, and gym shorts, holding a plastic cup in his hand.
"Alright! Come on in ladies, we're just starting to open up the booze." He pointed toward the kitchen as they walked in, "Dove is in there mixing up drinks if that's your pleasure, and there's a blue cooler in there that's full of beer if you want that instead."
Team NDGO split up to go do their own thing, Nebula and Gwen walking around to explore the house, Octavia walking straight into the kitchen to get a drink, and Dew walking over to the stereo system and hooking up her scroll to it.
After about a half hour, Nebula and Gwen found their way back into the living room area. Octavia and Sky were dancing with each other, albeit drunkenly, Cardin and Dew were sitting in front of the TV playing a video game, and Dove and Russell were sitting on the couch, passing a joint between them.
"Yo, can I get a hit or two of that?" Asked Gwen as she walked over to the couch.
Without a word, Russell passed it over to her, while Nebula sat down on an overstuffed armchair and watched Cardin and Dew's game.
"No!" Cried out Cardin as his character died for the final time.
"You lose, big boy. You know the deal. Shirt off now," said Dew with a large grin on her face.
Cardin grumbled, but took off the muscle shirt, showing off his toned chest and abdomen.
"Come to mama..." said Gwen, eyes hungrily devouring every inch of Cardin's bare chest.
"In here, this is a bedroom," said Sky, his words slightly slurring as he opened the door.
Octavia stumbled in behind him, catching herself before she fell over, then walking over and sitting on the bed.
Sky sat next to her, "You sure you're up for this?" He asked.
She looked at him, "After the fight we lost earlier, I need something good to happen tonight," she reached down and pulled off her shirt, "take me."
"Oh come on! You fucking camping bitch!" Dew yelled out.
Cardin grinned back, "It's a legitimate strategy. Your turn blondie, take something off."
Dew huffed, but removed her over-shirt, leaving her in a tank top.
Nebula looked over at Gwen, Russell, and Dove. They had finished their joint and were now engaged in some stoner talk in between stuffing their faces with pizza and cheese doodles.
"Hey Dove, how high are you right now?" asked Russell.
"Like, as high as a kite on the moon, man," replied Dove.
"But wouldn't like, a kite fall down on the moon? There's like, no wind to blow it and keep it up." said Gwen thoughtfully.
"Whoa... that's like, super smart of you to think Gwen. Are you like, a bookworm or something?" asked Dove.
Nebula rolled her eyes and turned back to the game, "Dew, move it. I'm tagging in."
Dew turned around to protest, but stopped when she saw the annoyance on her team leader's face.
"Whoa whoa whoa, wait a minute, I'm already down two pieces of clothing, how's this fair?" Cardin protested.
"I'll make you a deal. Stay the way you are, and every kill you get on me, I take off a piece of clothing, but you only lose one when you lose a match." Nebula said, an evil grin beginning to form.
"Deal!" Cardin said, a little too quickly, "I'll have you stark naked before the end of the match."
Nebula grin got wider, "We'll see about that," she said as she sat down and synced her scroll to the game.
"I'm the best out of the first years at Beacon, you're going down," said Cardin boastfully.
"Nebula is the reigning e-sports champion of Vacuo at this game," replied Dew. Cardin's mouth dropped open in response. "Good luck."
"Free for all deathmatch! Three, two, one, begin!" called the game.
Within a few minutes, Cardin was stepping out of his gym shorts, and Nebula was taking off her jacket after Nebula crushed him by a score of 25-1.
"Oh yes! Yes! Sky! I'm gonna... I'm about to- AHHHHHHH! she cried out in ecstasy as she rode him cowgirl.
Sky, laying on his back, had his eyes closed in absolute bliss at the feeling of this hot girl on top of him.
Suddenly, he heard a thud, felt her pulled off him and immediately going quiet, and felt something warm splash him in the face and chest.
His eyes flew open to see nothing but red. Octavia lay next to him, headless, her body, the bed, and him were all covered in blood. And next to the bed stood a woman, head covered with what appeared to be a welder's helmet, holding a two-handed axe, its silver blade shining red.
He opened his mouth to scream, but just as he did so, a black-gloved hand covered his mouth, muffling his cry, while another hand wrapped around his throat, the axe fell onto the bed, not making a sound.
He struggled against the hands, trying desperately to turn his head and force some air into his lungs, but his mind, still foggy from the alcohol and his limbs, tired from the sex with Octavia, were weak and refused to cooperate. His eyes widened in terror as he realized that he was about to die, and no one would be here to save him. His vision started to blur, and he began to get tunnel vision.
"Looks like the wolf has become the bunny," Octavia's killer whispered into his ear.
It was the last thing that Sky Lark heard before the tunnel closed, and he heard no more.
"Hey, where's Sky?" Cardin asked as his character was knifed again.
"I've also been wondering where Octavia is," said Nebula, tossing a grenade in the direction of where Cardin's character would be spawning.
"I did see them dancing together earlier, but they disappeared right after you and Gwen came back in here," added Dew from her seat.
"Well then, go look for them. Those three are so stoned that they can't find their goddamn feet," Nebula said, jutting her thumb at Dove, Russell, and Gwen, "and I'm busy teaching him some humility," she said as she knifed Cardin again.
Dew stood up, "If I walk in on them doing the horizontal tango, I'm gonna shove my staff so far up your ass, you'll be my own personal stick puppet," she sniped at Nebula as she walked out of the room.
"Empty threat!" called Nebula after her.
Ignoring her team leader, Dew walked down the hallways, knocking on every door before cracking it, all the while calling out Octavia and Sky's names.
"Tavi! Sky! Come on guys, answer me! This isn't funny!"
Not finding them on the first floor, she walked up the set of stairs and continued her search, peeking into every door, but coming up empty. She found a game room with a pool table, multiple closets and bathrooms, a study, and a spare bedroom, but no sign of the missing couple.
After checking the upstairs twice, she decided that she must have missed a hallway or something downstairs. As she walked down the stairs, she heard a thump from down the hallway. Walking over to investigate, she saw a door that she had missed when she first searched.
She knocked, "Tavi? Sky? Are you in there?"
She received no answer, so she cracked open the door with her eyes closed, "Guys, if you're in here, say something." Again, no answer.
She opened her eyes slowly, and upon meeting the sight in front of her, she immediately tried to scream, but it caught in her throat with a gag.
Octavia lay naked on the bed, her arms and legs spread out, her head no longer attached to her shoulders, but sitting on her chest. Sky was propped up in a chair in the corner, his brown eyes staring at nothing, his neck bent at an odd angle. And blood, so much blood everywhere; on the bed, the carpet, the walls, and of course on the two corpses in the room.
Dew turned and ran back into the living room. Bursting in, everyone jumped in alarm.
"Dew! What the hell's the matter with you?! Did you find them?" Nebula asked.
"AHHHHHHHH!" Dew screamed, the only sound that she was capable of making as she fell to her knees.
A/N: So there we go, Octavia and Sky are the unlucky ones to die first. They broke rule #1 of a slasher movie, don't have sex.
Hope you all enjoyed this, and I hope you'll enjoy the rest to come as the rest of Team NDGO and CRDL are systematically killed off by this "mysterious" axe-wielding murderer.
See you all next time!
