IT WAS TIME TO LEAVE CAMPUS, THE POLICE DEEMED IT TOO DANGEROUS FOR THE PRESCOTT'S WHO DIDN'T MIND AS THEY WERE JUST AS EAGER TO LEAVE. Justin was just sad, just when his life was in order, it had to happen again.
Toni sighed, putting a suitcase by the door. "Be ready in ten, losers," she called out to her roommates.
Noelle stopped packing to look at her, walking out of the room. "What are you doing?"
"Going with you," she replied as if it were obvious.
"No, you're not. You can just drop out of school-"
"Can and am," she replied. "My survival rate is better if I'm not in the place that has bodies dropping."
Noelle sighed. "Look, we're bad luck, okay? People die wherever we go."
"No, people die wherever they go," she said, nodding to Justin who was in the room. "You might cancel it out and bring good luck. Or..."
"Or what?"
"You and I could both stay and just he goes. Killer just wants them, it seems like-"
"That's not an option," Noelle immediately said. "I've been by his side this whole time, when his mom died, when his best friend tried to murder him and I'm gonna be there with him now."
She sighed. "Okay, I understand."
"Think you're better off just going home with your parents for now if you're not staying here."
"I hate my mom and my dad moved to Europe, I'm good going with you guys."
Noelle nodded. "Okay...we'll be ready to leave soon."
Justin came out of the room shortly with a suitcase. "I got everything I need. We can leave wherever you're ready."
"I'm ready," Toni answered.
"Me too," Noelle said, zipping up her suitcase.
Justin grabbed his keys off the counter. "Let's go then, the agents are gonna meet us downstairs."
As they headed out, Toni asked, "You talked to Mickey or anyone at all?"
"I don't trust or like Derek so definitely not him but I talked to Mickey," Justin answered.
"You didn't tell him or anyone where we were going did we?" Noelle asked.
"I wouldn't have even if I knew where we were going. Only person I would've told would've been Randy..." Her face fell at the name, still a sore subject for them both. "He just knows we were leaving, not when or where, just said a quick bye over the phone a few hours ago cuz he's been dodging homework this past week."
"Good, more people don't need to get hurt just because they know," she replied as they walked downstairs where the agents were waiting with the cars as Derek was also waiting on Sidney, making Noelle sigh. "Ugh, go away."
He glanced at her. "I have a right to say goodbye to Sidney."
"Whatever, Billy Loomis Number Two," Noelle said as the agents put their bags in the trunk of the first car as Sidney came downstairs with Hallie.
Justin, Noelle, and Toni got in the first car while the other set of agents put Sidney and Hallie's stuff in the trunk while Sidney kissed Derek goodbye.
"Are we leaving yet or what?" Justin asked the agents.
"We are, yes," the agent answered as two agents each got in both cars as did the girls.
The cars drove off campus, both separating onto other roads.
Toni sighed. "Yeah, cuz splitting up always works out," she mumbled.
"It's for safety, you'll be less likely followed if we split up," an agent answered.
"Fucking white people," she mumbled, sitting back, making Justin chuckle, leaning back against the door, looking out the window.
The drive lasted nearly ten minutes on a nearly empty road to which Noelle cuddled up into Justin's side, holding onto him.
Suddenly, the agent in the passenger seat sat up in the front seat. "What was that?" he asked.
"What?" Justin asked but he heard it too from a far distance.
"That sounds like a car going pretty fast," The other agent said as they pulled up to a stop light.
"Gimme a second," the first agent said, getting out with his car as the sound of tires and a car engine got closer.
The three in the back looked around through the window and just then, he saw blinding headlights speeding towards them.
The agent who had gotten out of the car recognized it as the car Sidney and Hallie got in and moved to the middle of the road, shouting. "Stop! Stop the fucking car!"
The girls jumped as the agent shot at the car but the car just only sped up faster towards them.
Suddenly, the agent was run over by the speeding car, his body going under the tires making the group panic and try to get out of the car.
Justin glanced towards the car, seeing Ghostface in the driver's seat, making him panic even more when he realized his sister and Hallie were still in the back seat. "Oh shit!"
Before the agent driving could move out of the way, the car the killer was in collided with the left front side of the car, making it spin out of control until it collided and smashed into the side of the building, the agent flying through the windshield upon impact.
Justin in shock and gasping for air was the first to sit up, his head bleeding from the impact, turning to the girls who were still trying to recover and snap out of it.
"A-Are you guys okay?" Justin asked, rubbing his temples to calm down the sudden headache.
They didn't answer as Toni looked around. "What the hell was that?"
"The killer, he was driving the car that hit us," Justin mumbled, looking around.
Noelle reached over, trying for the door which was locked considering it was a sort of police official car. "Fuck."
Justin turned towards the front seat, his eyes widened. "Oh shit."
The agent's body was halfway out of the car through the windshield and bleeding heavily, he was definitely dead.
"He's dead, right?" Toni said softly in slight shock.
"Yeah, I think so," Justin mumbled.
Noelle pulled at the partition so she could try at least get out through the front but it wasn't working. "How the fuck are we supposed to get out?"
"The window," Toni mumbled, looking at the back window to see it was already cracked. "We just need to kick out the glass."
"I got it," Justin mumbled, shifting back in his seat so he was leaning up against the partition.
"Be careful," Noelle told him.
Justin put any and all effort into the repeated kicks towards the broken glass. With a four and final kick, the glass shattered back out onto the ground.
Justin looked at them. "I'll go first." He climbed out, being mindful of any loose shards of glass, sliding down the car trunk onto the floor before turning to them. "Come on."
Noelle was the next to climb out, Justin helping her, and then shortly Toni who jumped back as a car horn was heard nearby.
Noelle glanced back as Justin helped Toni out of the car, it was the agent's car the killer was in which had collided into a construction area on the road.
Justin saw this, remembering his sister. "We gotta go back for them."
"You're crazy," Toni mumbled. "We nearly just died and the killer could still be there."
"I'm not leaving without Sidney," he mumbled, looking towards the agent's body but of course, his gun wasn't in the holster. "Dammit. Fine, I'll go by myself."
"No, you're not, let's go," Noelle replied, following him.
Toni sighed. "Fuck my life," she groaned but followed them, not wanting to be alone.
Justin cautiously approached the car. The killer was unconscious in the driver's seat and Sidney was in the passenger's side, slowly trying to move her way through the open window. Justin immediately grabbed her, slowly pulling and helping her climb out.
"I got you," he mumbled, his eyes glued onto the Ghostface mask.
Noelle tried for the backdoor as Hallie was in the back of the car still. "Shit. You gotta go for the front too."
Hallie glanced anxiously back at her then the front. "Oh no fucking way, I can't," she mumbled.
"You gotta. Breaking the window would make too much noise, it's now or never."
Justin turned now noticing the agent in front of the car, a pipe impaled through his head. "Jesus."
"Come on," Sidney, Noelle, and Toni quietly mumbled to Hallie who climbed to the front.
Justin gently grabbed Hallie's hand, helping her through the window before they all took off running.
They got to the end of the street when Sidney stopped them. "I wanna know who it is."
They immediately objected.
"Smart people run. We're smart people, so we should just get the fuck out of here," Hallie told her.
"I'm sick of running," Sidney replied. "If we know who it is, then it's over."
Justin shook his head. "Or you could fucking die. We could get the cops."
"Yeah, and when we come back, he'll be gone. It'll only take a minute. I have to do this."
Sidney walked back towards the car, making Justin sigh. "Fuck, I'm going back too."
"That's the stupidest thing you could do," Noelle told him.
"I agree but I'm not gonna leave her alone to do this," he mumbled, pecking her lips.
Justin followed Sidney making Toni call back to them. "Don't do this, you'll die."
The Prescotts slowly walked over to the car but panic and dread immediately filled them as they found an empty driver's seat. "Oh shit," They both said.
"What?" Hallie asked.
"He's gone."
"Fuck, I don't wanna die," Toni said,
It was then, that Ghostface grabbed Toni by the hair, pulling her head back and slicing her throat with his knife.
The girls screamed, Justin covering his mouth in shock as Toni fell to her knees, dead.
"Come on," Noelle said through her shaky voice and grabbed Hallie but the girl was yanked from her grip by the killer before being stabbed repeatedly. "You motherfucker!"
As soon as the killer dropped Hallie, Noelle tried to run but was grabbed.
Justin ran forward as Noelle grabbed the killer's wrist, holding the knife, keeping it away from her before throwing her elbow back into the killer's neck and shoving him onto the pavement.
It was just the three of them now.
"We gotta go," Sidney said as Justin grabbed Noelle's hand before taking off running down the street before the killer could get back up again.

In light of Neve's post on Scream 7, I made a post on what Justin/Austin's post would've been on the subject to help me live in my delusional world that he's part of the Scream franchise
So this means unfortunately, I probably won't be writing for Scream 7 when it does come out sorry
