Chapter thirty one,

the mastermind and his lap dogs

▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂

"PICK UP THE FUCKING PHONE, MARK!" Jasmine had mentally groaned, she was standing by the wall, and away from Tara Carpenter and Jodie Carter — Or, whatever her fucking last name might be. Violence is never the answer, but she's so close to bitch slapping her ex-friend, it's funny how time changes.

Dialing him, again until she had heard loud commotion, eyes widening when she seen her boyfriend just gripping Ethan Landry's jacket sleeves, harshly shoving his back against the car, "Where were you!?" He sneered in utter venom.

Jasmine couldn't help, but had found that extremely hot! But, recently anything that her boyfriend does is so hot, she didn't know if it was because she was hormonal, or because it's Chad.

So distracted by the scene, she had failed to even hear the person on the other line with her, "Minn—" She had hit decline before he could even finish his sentence, as she walked over to her boyfriend.

Ethan had noticed her appearing, and he had to refrain himself from simply groaning in pain because a part of him knew who was there, and he was just completely shitting his pants — He knew his father, sister and Jodie are now truly fucked.

Ethan just looking back at Chad, stumbling with his words, again and was mostly afraid to even slip up because Jasmine's glare that was fixated on him was making him nervous, "I had Econ. You both know this!" He had attempted to prove his innocence.

Chad not believing it for a second, shoving him harsher than before, "Bullshit, Man! You disappear, and my sister and Anika almost gets killed!" Chad slightly flinched when he had felt someone wrapping their arms just around his torso, quickly glancing down to realize it's just his girlfriend, and wrapping his arms around her, securely.

Ethan who argued, "Dude, I was in a study hall with a hundred other people. . ." He had reminded them, "You can ask any of them." He remarked.

A figure appeared, "I smell bullshit, he's lying. Why don't you call, uhm what's that one hot chicks name!? Eleanor. . . Elizabeth. . . Oh, shit Elena!" Charlie given her the obvious, and smart options to check.

Jasmine couldn't help, but realize that — that Charlie is about absolutely right, she also needs to find out who is actually really responsible for last night, because she was so fucking angry.

She almost lost her cousin.

Tara lashed out like a maniac.

And, Jodie. She may be related to Jennifer Jolie, but it doesn't really answer the ultimate question into the reasoning of her even being Ghostface, her fucking Aunt would be ashamed if that's even her Aunt.

   Chad just slowly backed away and gently tugging his girlfriend with, "Fuck, Man!" His jaw was still clenched, eying Ethan Landry.

   Ethan slowly glanced around, mouth just dropping in shock before he spoke, "Oh, my God. Who?" His eyes were attempting to just shown a hint of sorrow.

   Jasmine had easily retorted, "Quinn. . . Anima was almost close to dying, but—" She had quickly paused in her sentence not really wanting to say anything else, "Point is that she's fine, so please leave." She deadpanned.

   He awkwardly hurried away.

   Jasmine had tiredly placed her own head on her boyfriends chest who easily wrapped his arms around her, "Don't people ever get tired of this shit? Because, I'm bored and so tired of this." She sighed, he rubbed her back.

   Chad softly mumbling to her, "So am I. . . We can never live in peace. There's always some dumb chucklefuck who's always wearing a stupid mask, but we're gonna be okay. Okay?" He reassured her.

   She nodded her head.

   Mindy headed over to them, eyes glancing around in hopes that Jodie isn't focusing on them, quietly speaking to Jasmine, "Jasmine there's something you have to know —" She had gotten interrupted by a concerned voice, turning her body around.

   Her Aunt Gale Weathers, she pulled away from her boyfriend just as Gale engulfed her into a hug, "You're not hurt, are you? God, I should've never agreed on letting you go on and have a damn sleepover, especially with a killer out on the loose." She felt guilty, she can't risk losing Jasmine.

Jasmine had easily wrapped her arms around her Aunt Gale, and her voice cracking, "Chad and I had both left the apartment before chaos was unleashed, but Anika got hurt really bad, she's still in the hospital, she's already awake and in her hospital room." Her bottom lip had quivered despite being relief just as much relief Mindy felt.

Gale gently pulled away, and easily placing her hands onto her nieces face cheeks, "Oh my God. . . We can go see her afterwards, I think I've found some leads, a shrine." She revealed.

Jasmine blinked her eyes, "A shrine?"

Gale had easily nodded her own head, she was searching for Samantha until her eyes widened, and speaking to Minnie, "Yeah. I'm going to go, and tell Sam about it, let's just hope she's still not angry at me." She easily crossed her fingers in hope, as that only left Jasmine to just lightly laugh.

   Watching her Aunt from a far, she focused her attention back to Mindy, "What'd you want to tell me?" She furrowed her eyebrows.

   Mindy had noticed a certain someone just watching them, she instantly shook her head, "I'll tell you about it later." She had swallowed down her saliva nervously.

Jasmine nodding her head, "Okay."

────────────────────

    "JASON AND GREG WERE LITTLE RICH ATLANTIC BOYS." Gale revealed and just continued speaking to them, "Apparently, they used fake names to rent this place." She casually retorted.

   Kirby who was just walking right beside Gale, and was laced with confusion, "How'd you find it?" She was just in disbelief because she hasn't even found a clue, or has any type of leads.

   Gale who had sarcastically replied to the blonde, "It's called investigative journalism for a reason." Gale turned her head to the side, and given Kirby a smug look, "How didn't you find them? Weren't you tracking them?" She stated the obvious.

   Kirby answering, "I went through their financial records dozen of times. This was not in any of them. This doesn't make sense." She was in quick disbelief.

   Gale sarcastically responded, "Don't worry. I'm just really good at my job. You'll get there." She ultimately gotten ahead of Kirby, and had slid a card down that had opened up the place.

   Jasmine had felt her phone buzzing, and instantly grabbing it, she quickly answered it, "I'll call you later, Uncle Mark. I'm kinda busy at this moment." She whispered before hanging up.

   Chad raised her eyebrow, quietly whispering too her despite seeing all of their friend group entering the building, "What's going on?" He quietly said to her.

   Jasmine had slowly leaned forward, and whispering in his ear because so far she only trusts about four people in her friend group, and Tara isn't one even of them because of her snitching, "I think Jodie isn't who she claims to be. . ." She revealed before she continued, "You know these little hallucinations about the two certain people — One, of them had revealed something." She felt crazy and embarrassing for admitting that.

   Chad nodded his head, "I believe you. We'll get to the bottom of this. . ." He gently placed a kiss on her lips before speaking, again, "Let's go inside before they question us." He gently tugged on their intertwined hands, as they both stepped into the building.

Watching the two enter, two male voices speaking, "Why aren't you telling her who's the ones underneath the mask? It'll you know save anyone from even dying?" His arms were just crossed.

Shaking his own head, and speaking in a really aggressive tone, "No. Then what's the fun in torturing, him. Detective Bailey – He wants to play so be it, I love games. Also, shouldn't you even be telling, her. Gale Weathers on why you befriended her to protect my daughter and the feelings for her isn't mutual, or don't tell me you actually fell for her?" He couldn't help, but gag and walking away from the alley with his friend right behind him.

Santiago simply crossing his arms, "Cállate, idiota." Mickey flicking him off only to stumble on a box, "Estúpido." Santiago had mumbled to himself.

────────────────────

   "HOLY FUCK. . ." Jasmine just felt really astonished at all of this, eyes glimpsing around the entire place, "How does someone have the time even make this?" She was just in disbelief, that she didn't realize she accidentally released her boyfriends hand, curiosity getting the best of her.

   Though, everyone was in disbelief, Mindy who's mouth widened, "They've got the whole goddamn franchise." She spoken loudly.

   Jasmine continued on her path, she seen a glass box that held a photo of her dad who was standing right beside Randy Meeks, both just smiling in the photo despite her dad playfully flicking Randy off, but her eyes wandered more downwards, her eyes screwing shut at what she had scene, "Gross." Nancy Loomis had all of her intestines removed, and had a rope around her neck, and her body just hanging from the stage.

Her thoughts got rudely interrupted when Detective Bailey spoken, "You all have been through so much." He voiced out with concern laced all over his voice.

Jasmine just continued on her path, slowly walking when she had bumped into her Aunt Gale, her eyes just softened when she seen him, Dewey Riley, "I miss him too. You know when I'd get sad or would have an episode, we'd get ice cream or watch movies no matter how late it was. . ." She had smiled fondly before she continued, "He really did love you, Aunt Gale. He'd also want you to be happy not drowning in sadness. " She had wiped the tear out of her Aunt Gale's cheek.

Gale sniffled gently nodding her one head, softly speaking, "You're right, he wouldn't want either one of us to be drowning in sadness. We have to live life for him, it's what'd he want us to do." She gently smiled.

Both getting distracted when possibly the most irritating voice she's ever encountered with, "Hey, how'd they get all this stuff? Isn't this evidence?" Tara furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

Jasmine muttering to herself and not even bothering to stare at Tara Carpenter, "Finally, the first smartest question you have possibly asked, stupid bitch." She deadpanned.

Gale raised her eyebrow, she can ask her later. She wasn't fully aware of the two girls argument, but she'd take Jasmines side, her voice was monotone when answering, "Well, cops like money, and evidence can get lose pretty quickly." Gale revealed.

   Or, a dirty cop is in the field.

   Thought Jasmine completely shrugged it off, especially when she gotten quickly distracted by all of the cloaks, especially within the order two were in, "Why is Billy Loomis in the box?" She easily deadpanned, she headed towards the stage.

   Detective Bailey speaking, tilting his head at the girl, "Because he started this?" He sounded almost questionable.

   Sam had instantly nodded her head, "Yeah, Jas. You know this, he alongside Stu Macher." She slowly added, and approaching her dads cloak.

   Jasmine was getting irritated, "Billy Loomis and Stu Macher didn't start shit. . ." She had instantly opened the large box, grabbing the stupid mannequin and just moving it to stand beside Nancy Loomis, eyes glancing around to find Roman Bridger's name, "Did they put on the Halloween costume first? Yeah. But, they wouldn't of even bothering doing all of this if it weren't for Roman Bridger." She pointed to the mannequin, walking over to it and dragging it to place it on the box.

   Everyone just remained confused beside Gale Weathers, speaking up to defend her niece on her little actions, "She's right, he started this." She nodded her head.

   Sam was confused, "What do you mean if it weren't for Roman Bridger?" She was in slight disbelief, also this franchise was still confusing to her.

   Jasmine slowly began speaking not before she pinched her own nose, "Okay — It's time to educate every single one of you all on the most brutal Ghostface. . ." She clapped her hands together, "Roman Bridger, the half brother of Sydney Prescott. Also, truly the only successful Ghostface to even kill nine people all on his own without help." She retorted.

   Mindy was in shock, "Her half brother?"

   Jasmine easily nodded her head, "Maureen Prescott, she once used to go by her stage name Rina Reynolds, she was an unknown actress back then — She was illegitimate raped in one of the parties that John Milton used to host, it was how Roman Bridger came into existence, she given him for adoption, and because of this incident it led to her promiscuous lifestyle." She had slowly added before continuing, "He knocked on her door years later, and hoping for acceptance, but she slammed the door right at his face." She deadpanned.

   Tara who had given her a dirty look, "How do you even know this, it's insane!?" She causally snapped at her.

   Jasmine simply ignored her, continuing on speaking, "He got mad, so mad. So, he began recording her. . ." She clicked her tongue onto her own teeth, "Recording every affair she had beginning with Cotton Weary, and also Hank Loomis. . . Just manipulating Billy Loomis, and simply telling him that's the reason his mother had abandoned him when he showed this clip to him." She had lightly chuckled.

   She was so lost in her head didn't realize that Detective Bailey was getting nervous because of how smart this girl is, and educated enough on this franchise.

   Sam was just in disbelief, "But my dad still started this when he put the cloak and mask on. . ." She  attempted to make her friend see her point of view.

   Jasmine who simply snorted at her friends comment, "No offense, but your dad is nothing compared to Roman Bridger. . ." She had easily reminded her friend, again, "This franchise, and every single fuckhead who wears this shit has only one person to truly thank, and that's Roman Bridger. He ultimately started this with his manipulation." She had clapped her hands together, and walking away from the box and approached her boyfriend who kissed the top of her head.

   Tara who had made a snarky comment, "So where does this lead your dad into all of this?" She had deadpanned.

   Jasmine who given her a sarcastic smile, "I believe that I've told you not to speak with me until you fix your attitude." She flicked her off.

   Jodie attempted to speak, "Watch h—"

   Jasmine had angrily snapped at her, "You know Jennifer Jolie was going to play my Aunt Gale Weathers, but was ultimately murdered by Roman Bridger, she was his fling." She had bitterly snapped.

   Jodie flinched at the mention of her Aunt's deceased name, but Jasmine is wrong. Mickey Altieri killed her Aunt Jennifer, it's what she was told by Detective Bailey.

   Though, her flinching didn't go unnoticed by Jasmine or the Meeks siblings, and Jasmine had her right where she wanted, all she needs is a simple confirmation from her Uncle Mark.

   Motive? Still unknown.

   Chad attempted to lower the tension, and easily speaking, "So, somebody killed these chucklefucks besides Mickey, and took over?" He easily called out, as he had felt Jasmine snuggling more into him.

   Gale nodded her head, "Someone who believes that Sam and Jasmine masterminded Woodsboro." She announced.

   Sam who glanced down at her feet.

   Jasmine tried to uplift the girls spirit, "At least we make a better team than Nancy and my dad made." A smile managed to appear on Sam's face because it was true.

   Tara felt that jealousy feeling, again.

   God, Jasmine just takes everyone.

   The boy she once liked, and now her sister.

   Mindy added to the conversation, "If this were a normal Stab movie this would be the killers lair." She revealed the obvious.

   Kirby speaking, "Which means, this isn't a normal Stab movie." She glanced at everyone.

   It remained silent until Tara just felt herself beginning to quiver, tugging her girlfriend with and both immediately going away, as Sam had followed her sister in pursuit to check up on her.

   Just leaving Jasmine to hesitantly pull out her phone, and just quietly whispering to her boyfriend, "Anika is discharged, so we can pick her up and then meet someone." She playfully slapped her boyfriends thigh.

He had nodded his head, "I'll text Mindy to meet us outside, and to be discreet." He kissed his girlfriend on the lips.

Jasmine giggled, "I love you so much."

He grinned, "I love you, more."
