Elsewhere a bit later that night Vicky was quietly singing to herself in the shower as she washed her hair
Her and Ryan decided to book into a motel for the night get some rest and do some more work on the Myers/strode case and Ryan sat at a table on his laptop and writing down some notes in a notebook and also the mask lay on the table next to him
Ryan sighed and leaned back in his chairs cracking his knuckles before picking up the mask for another look at it and though it had aged a bit it was still in good condition and looking at the mask and stroking the hair Ryan had an idea to pull a prank
In her room Vicky was just stepping out the shower and wrapped a towel around herself and bent down to plug in the motels hairdryer when she thought she heard someone at the door
' Who is it who's their " Called our Vicky looking uo but got no reply
Ryan if that's you mucking around in no mood for your pranks so. go back to your room I'm tired and I want to dry my hair and get into bed and I suggest you do the same we have a very busy day tomorrow and we stil to find Loomis ' Said Vicky as the door opened slightly and someone came in
Vicky had her back to the visitor and didn't see him but when the person came in her room she screamed their stood Michael
' Sweet Jesus in heaven " Ghasped Vicky terrified as she backed away a little knowing she only had a hairdryer to defend herself with but was shocked to see Michael remove the mask and it wasent him it was Ryan wearing the mask
' What the fuck you scared me what the hell are you doing with that thing you can't play with it it's not a toy that belongs to the police ' Vicky said
' Yes I know and I borrowed it for a few days I give it back in a couple of days I have it to the 3rd of November so it's fine no I just wanted to try it on that's all to see if I can feel anything in it if the mask itself is evil ' Ryan said looking at the mask
' Oh what are you on this weather it's just a mask latex and nylon hair that's all it's harmless he's the one that's evil not a Halloween mask that probably cost a pound or two when it first came out or I should say a dollar honestly Ryan your letting your imagination run riot now we better keep that safe till we hand it back or we will have the police on out asses now I need to dry off and get to bed we have a very busy day tomorrow and an early start so I suggest you take the mask put it back in your bag and get some sleep ' Vicky said
' Yeah guess so and all I feel is sweaty in that thing dunno how Michale feels in it guess it's the laytex also says made by silver shamrock think I read about them they were a big Irish company that made masks and something happened to them kids got hurt and factory went on fire happened back in the 80s I was a baby at the time but iv read about it huge big scandal kids died too so they stopped making masks but this is very rare even though the seal is broken off you can see where it's been look " Ryan said pointing at a small dent under the hair at the back
' Yes I have heard of the silver shamrock company and what happened too but stop messing with the mask it's old and you might pull the hair out best put it away and get to bed we can talk about it tomorrow I want some sleep ' Vicky said as she ushered Ryan out the door
' Er no chance of a nightcap then ' Said Ryan smiling a bit
' Goodnight Ryan go to bed ' Vicky said slamming the door
Truth was Ryan sort of had feelings for Vicky but she wasent interested in him and she thought he wasent good enough for her as she was a bit of a snob and came from a better background whist he was from a working class family that lived in an apartment block and she lived in a large fancy house growing up and was spoiled by her wealthy parents and also attended privet school and he didn't but despite the class barrier it didn't stop him from trying
' Okay looks if it's just me and you Michael guess Vicky isn't interested but let's get you back ' Ryan said talking to the mask as he headed back to his own motel room and he put the mask back in his bag before grabbing a shower himself and heading to bed
Next day Ryan and Vicky had a very early start they were up at 6am and were going to find Loomis and the beauty of it being so earlynit was still quiet and and dark but that didn't bother the young couple
' Goodmorning everyone it's now half 6 on this cold Halloween morning so what are your plans for tonight are you going trick r treating or to a party or staying at home with a few horror movies have to say Chucky is my favourite also what's your best and funniest Halloween why don't you drop me an email or gimme a call and tell you what the winner will receive a cool T shirt and car bumper sticker that both would be worth 40 bucks so how is that and it's brag material too get all your friends jelious so gimme a call or send an email and share your story and to get us in the mood we will start today off with Marlyn Manson and this is Halloween yup we know it is ' Said the DJ in a friendly voice as Ryan turned on the radio
' Urgh turn that off it's too early ' Vicky said yawning a bit
' nothing wrong with a little bit of Marlyn Manson and that's a good song but okay i guess now let's head to Haddonfield but first we can stop for gas and some breakfast I'm starving fancy a good British fry up sausages bacon eggs tea and toast ' Ryan said
' Urgh full of calories all that greasy fat so not good for you I'll get some water and I'll wait till we get to Haddonfield they have a health food shop their ' Vicky said
' You don't know what your missing bet soon as you see my breakfast you'll want some ' Ryan said laughing
' I very much doubt it but if you want to stuff yourself with unhealthy food and risk a heart attack then go on ahead don't mind me I'm not telling you what to do just giving you a little friendly advice that's all ' Vicky said as they soon pulled up at a gas station that also had a diner next to it
' Okay I'll get some gas in the car then I'll l join you ' Ryan said as Vicky got out the car and looked around seeing it was really quiet
' I'll have to go to the ladies then I'll meet you in the dinner and watch you kill yourself with junk food ' Vicky said as Ryan made a face watching Vicky head inside to look for a bathroom and he was unaware he was being watched by a tall figure hiding behind a drinks vender
Soon Ryan filled up the car and headed inside to pay for it but their was no one around which seemed strange
' Hello hey I have some money for you I bought some gas and my friend and I want some food and water anyone here ' Yelled Ryan shouting not knowing the 2 workers that normally worked their were lying dead behind the door in another room bruitly killed and also in the garage area where cars got repaired 3 other bodies lay also killed one had his coveralls stolen
' Well I'll leave the money on the counter but anyone could come and take it after me ' Ryan said leaving the money down before heading across to the diner and again that seemed abandoned too which puzzled Ryan as normally at that time it be busy with workers coming off night shift but unknown to Ryan another 2 bodies lay murderd in the kitchen and another dinner was slumped face down on a table and that's when Ryan noticed the other man and what seemed like blood on the table
' Excuse me sir are you okay their..? Ryan asked gently touching the man on the shoulder and to Ryan's horror the man fell of the chair and his face was missing ripped off that made Ryan gasp and feel queezy and mutter ' OMG ' and that's when Ryan was aware of someone behind him Michael
' OMG no your locked up how did you get free ' Was the last words Ryan spoke before Michael grabbed him crushing the young reporters skull and slamming him off a nearby wall painting the wall with his blood then letting the body fall at his feet looking at it for a few seconds and then headed off to find Vicky
