A/N: So, I re-watched the movie and have brushed up on my TCM history. Also, this is the first chapter Leatherface appears.

Enjoy!

"What the hell is that?" Morgan asked in awe.

"I think it's a house." Kemper whispered sarcastically.

Every light in the house was on.

"Who do you think lives there?" asked Pepper.

Erin turned to them. "It's that little boy's house!"

Kemper rolled his eyes. "Erin, are you still going on about that little boy?"

"I'm telling you, he was there! Look, he said that I should be quiet, because he'll hear us. So I asked who. He said he was 'a very bad man'. Spark any plugs?"

"Oh my God-" Pepper exclaimed.

"The hitchhiker." Erin concluded.

"Dude, this is WAY creepy." Andy groaned.

"OK, let's be smart. Two people say that a very bad man lives here. So, I'm guessing that maybe we shouldn't be here anymore." Morgan reasoned.

"He's right." Andy and Pepper nodded.

Erin shook her head. "That little boy was hurt and scared! He might need our help."

"Oh, like the hitchhiker did?! You know Erin, sometimes your just a little TOO caring! " Morgan exclaimed.

"Well Morgan, in case you haven't noticed, there is no way to get out of here!" Erin yelled back.

Kemper refereed and got in between them. "Okay stop! You both have a point! We do need to get out of here but-"

A loud buzzing sound was heard in the distance. A scream followed it.

All of them shut up. "Oh my gosh, you guys! What the heck was that?!" Pepper squealed, grabbing onto Andy. He protectively got in front of her.

The buzzing sound stopped and the sound of crinkling grass was heard.

"Okay, all in favor of leaving!!!" Morgan screamed.

They all bee-lined through the woods.

Pepper, who really wasn't used to running, slowed down. Andy turned around as he ran. "Pepper, come on!!!"

"I can't." She gasped, grabbing onto her side and completely stopping.

He ran back to her and threw her over his shoulder, trying to keep up with the rest of them.

When they got back to the van, Erin put the key in the door and unlocked it. They all piled in.

Kemper grabbed the key from his girlfriend and put it in the ignition. But nothing happened. "Oh dear God! Thing, start!" He yelled, turning it frantically.

"Oh my God!!! We're going to die! " Pepper screamed into Andy's chest, crying.

Erin knew there was nothing else to do. They would have to leave everything and run for it.

She opened the door and got out.

Morgan looked at her like she was insane. "Erin, what the HELL are you doing?!?!"

"If the car won't start, we'll just have to run." She said simply, looking at Kemper.

Kemper nodded and too got out.

Morgan stared at them both in awe. "Okay, did everyone eat their Crazy Flakes this morning?!"

"I'm not getting out!" Pepper shouted.

Andy nodded. But then he got out too.

"Andy! What are you doing?!" She shrieked.

Andy looked at her painfully. "If you want to sit in here until that thing finds you, be my guest!"

Morgan hurried out. "Screw this!"

Pepper whined and got out, crying still.

Andy grabbed her wrist and they ran in the other direction, until they came across a mill.

"Okay, we hide in here." Erin whispered. They ran into the barn, going off in different directions. Andy and Pepper went to the right, while Morgan, Erin and Kemper went to the left.

Andy and Pepper crawled into this small little wooden loft. They grabbed onto each other.

Pepper continued to cry, she couldn't help it. This was too much. It was like something seen in a horror movie.

Andy held her tightly to his chest and put his mouth to her ear. "Baby, you are going to HAVE to stop crying." He whispered panicky.

She nodded and bit her lip, shaking.

Meanwhile, Morgan jumped into a box and covered the lid.

Erin and Kemper found an empty closet to hide in.

Kemper turned towards her. "I guess this isn't the best time to do this but uh..." He pulled a small box out of his pocket. "Will you marry me?" He whispered, smiling cockily.

She put her hands to her mouth to prevent herself from screaming. "Oh gosh, Kemp!" She whispered. She nodded.

He put it on her 'beautiful little finger'. She hugged him and before they knew it, a make-out session started.

But they stopped cold turkey when a loud banging noise came from outside.

Andy and Pepper heard it too. Pepper wanted to burst back into her tears that had become so familiar in the past twenty four hours. But she didn't.

Andy squeezed her tighter. If something bad was going to happen, he wanted to know that she would be safe.

Everything was dead quiet.

Nobody moved a muscle.

They were all ready for the end to come.

Suddenly, the loud buzzing sound started. This time the gang had figured out what it was.

"Oh my God! Andy, is that a fricken chainsaw?!" Pepper squealed.

Andy's eyes widened as he slapped his hand over her mouth to muffle her.

All of a sudden, the chainsaw went right down the wall of the loft.

Pepper and Andy screamed at the top of their lungs and crawled out of it.

The others started panicking too and ran from their hiding spots.

Kemper fell over a tire, and went into a hole. The hole had bones, teeth and rats all in it. It looked like someone had dug a grave.

Erin stopped running. "KEMP!!!" She screeched.

"Go!" He screamed, wincing in pain. The tire fell in with him, and on his leg.

Erin started crying, but reluctantly kept running.

Pepper, Andy, Morgan, and Erin headed for the woods again.

They ran along the path that ten minutes ago, they were running from.

Suddenly, Pepper fell behind, but Andy didn't notice.

When they finally got to the clearing with the van, he did though.

"Pepper? PEPPER?!!" He called out. His eyes were full of fear.

Morgan grabbed his arm. "Andy, we need to go."

"No, but s-she's out there! She's alone. I mean, he could have her-" He was in shock.

"Andy, man, C'MON!" Morgan screamed. The buzzing noise was growing nearer.

Andy took one last look at the way they had come. Tightfistedly, he ran the other way.

"Andy!" He heard from somewhere far in the woods behind him.

He stopped once more. "Pepper!!!"

Erin slapped him. "Andy, it's your life or both of yours!" She too was in shock. Kemper, her FIANCE, was probably dead.

Andy started weeping. "B-but she's right back there!"

Morgan gave up. "Fine!" When they started to run, Andy pursued after them.

"The house! Head for the house!" Erin yelled back towards them.

When they reached the clearing of overgrown weeds and grass, Erin ushered them quickly to the front of the house.

"Hello? We need help, please let us in!" She banged on the rusty screen door.

A man in a wheelchair rolled slowly to the door, an ugly mutt barking in his hands.

"What'd ya want?" He asked in a tone-deaf voice.

Erin looked behind her shortly and then turned back around. "Um, something just hurt our friends in the woods, please sir. There isn't a lot of time-"

The wrinkly man stalled. "Oh, you don't say. Tell me, was he big?"

Erin nodded. "Yes sir, the biggest."

"Was he really scruffy lookin', like he'd hurt ya or something?"

"Yes sir, but I don't really see any point to this. We need your help!" Erin yelled.

"Well honey, c'mon in!" His yellow teeth stuck out as he smiled.

Erin thanked him and pushed open the door, but when Morgan and Andy tried to follow, the paralyzed man stuck out his cane, hitting Morgan in the knee, causing him to swear.

"These son-of-a-bitches can wait outside." He glared sternly at them.

Erin shook her head. "No sir, please! They are in just as much danger as me!"

The man smiled. "Actually, I'm guessing their in less."

Suddenly, the maniac from the mill grabbed her from behind.

She screamed as he carried her off.

Andy and Morgan tried to get past the old man but he kept the screen locked. "ERIN!!!" They screamed into the screen.

Morgan looked at the man in disgust and fear. "What the hell's wrong with you people?!!!"

"Ain't nothing wrong with us sonny, maybe the question is what's wrong with you?" He paused and grinned. "Why ain't you running?"

Andy and Morgan knew the man was sick, but he had a good point. There was nothing else to do but scamper.

They fled for the woods once more, leaving a trail of dust behind them.

Erin was thrown into a basement, rolling down the steps and landing at the bottom with a thud.

She heard a door slam. The psychopath was gone, probably to finish off Andy and Morgan.

Her knees were brought to her chest, as she scurried against the damp wall. This place was beyond sinful.

Arms, REAL ARMS, hung from the ceiling. Some of them looked fresh.

Another ceiling ornament was tons of hooks.

But what were most disgusting were the piles of bones that were strewn all over the floor. Rats chewed off of them, and flies buzzed in the region of them.

She closed her eyes and prayed it was a dream.

Meanwhile, deep in the woods, Pepper scurried aimlessly on her hands and knees, trying the find the trail.

"Andy?" She whispered, her voice quavering. It had been about ten minutes since she had gotten lost from the rest of the gang.

She ran her hands across a patch of leaves and felt something gooey. She pulled it out, revealing that it was human gums, with the teeth still attach.

"Oh dear God." She whispered her hands to her mouth. Tears sprang to her eyes. She was going to die. It was that simple.

The question was however; was Andy safe? Or even alive, for that matter?

No, she had to find him, see him one more time.

Andy and Morgan somehow found their way to the Crawford Mill again.

Kemper heard somebody coming. He just knew it was the fanatical man with the chainsaw. He probably had already finished Erin and the others off.

Lucky dog he was.

But instead, a second pair of footprints followed.

Andy's head peeked down into the hole.

"Hey Kemp, ole' buddy." He said. "Can you move?"

Kemper shook his head. "I don't think so..." He winced as he tried ineffectively to move his leg with the tire on it. "Nope, I can't." He paused and looked up at Andy and Morgan. "Where are the girls?"

Morgan looked down on him with sadness in his eyes.

"Look, Pepper got lost in the woods, that thing probably got her and it...well, Kemp it got Erin."

Kemper was stunned. It got Erin. It was probably chopping her up with a chainsaw as he sat there. His mouth went dry. "He got Erin?" He asked, his voice rasped.

"Yeah..." Morgan and Andy looked away, awkwardly and not knowing what to say.

"Well we got to go save her! I mean, he could be hurting her right now, she could be dead, we've got to find her!" Kemper yelled as he tried feebly to push the tire off of his leg. He groaned.

Andy tried to stop him. "Man, stop it!!! You're only hurting your leg worse!"

"Is that even possible?" Kemper panted.

Andy looked at Morgan. "We're going to have to get him out of there." Morgan nodded.

Andy reached his hand down into the burial grave. "Grab it." He demanded.

Kemper reached his hand up and seized it. Morgan and Andy tugged him out of the hole.

They helped him stand, but he couldn't do it on his own. "I think it's broken." Kemper said helplessly.

Suddenly, the thudding that had become so familiar was coming.

"You two go, I'm as good as dead anyway." Kemper urged them to carry on.

"No, Kemp-" Andy protested.

"Dude, he has a point! We can stuff him in the Mill, then go off and find the others. We'll come back for him." Morgan argued.

"No Morgan, Kemp's my best bud! I'm not about to stuff him in a Mill for a chainsaw brandished maniac to finish him off!"

"Yea well, we've got no choice!"

"Yes we do! Look...I just lost Pepper. I'm not about to lose Kemper."

"Well, carry him yourself! I actually care about my own life." He dumped Kemper onto Andy.

"Yea, and that's the only thing you care about too." Andy retorted.

Morgan jogged away, somewhere behind the Mill.

Andy looked Kemper in the eyes. "I'm not going to leave you buddy, I promise." He had tears in his eyes.

He carried Kemper into the Mill and laid him behind a couple of boxes. Then he sat next to him.

Andy began laughing. "Remember the first day you n' me met?"

Kemper rolled his eyes and smiled weakly. "Yea, how could I forget?"

"We were both in second grade, and these guys were picking on me about my braces. Heck, I couldn't take 'em all on by myself. So you walked over and we beat 'em down into the dust, together, the Rat Pack of two!"

Kemper nodded. "Do you remember how much trouble we got in?"

"Yea, our parents had to pay for the kids medical bills." He laughed.

They were silent.

"Remember when we met Morgan?" Kemper asked quietly.

"Yea, how dumb were we?"

"He was in the Principal's office in fifth grade, for smoking pot on school property. We were in there for armed robbery at school."

"And he was so high; he couldn't even tell us his name!" Andy snickered.

"Then in 10th Grade, I met Erin." He got stared into space, his eyes growing red with tears.

Andy patted him on the back sympathetically.

"Look, we don't even know if she's dead yet. Who knows? Maybe some miracle was performed, and she's alive." Andy tried to make things better.

Kemper nodded. "Yeah...I guess that could be right."

"We've been through thick and thin, right brother?"

"Yep...boy, those were the good 'ole days."
