## Full Chapter

INT. CLUB - NIGHT

Music blares as a sea of people are dancing. Everyone is in costumes and masks. Most are either drunk or high. Some are even engaging in sexual encounters. It's a wild party at this club.

An already drunk Portman walks into the building. There is a large crowd filling the stairway. Portman struggles to walk up the stairs through the messed up crowd. He even throws a few people aside. But they're too drunk or high to even fight back. Portman makes it to the top, breathing heavily, only to find an even larger crowd filling the entire main area. He has to get through so many people until he finally reaches the bar.

Portman pulls out a POPPER and snaps it. He huffs it all in. Immediately, the drugs rush through him and he lets out a groan of pleasure. Suddenly, his phone dings with a notification. It's from an UNKNOWN CALLER. He looks at the text message: "Look at the crowd behind you."

Confused and curious, Portman turns around. There are several people dancing around that it's hard to see anything. Then much to his horror, materializing within the crowd is -- GHOSTFACE. He is staring right at Portman.

This leads to:

FLASHBACK

Portman shooting Sarah's Boyfriend, attacking and raping Sarah, then at the end, he points his gun at Sarah's head.

PORTMAN: Goodnight, Sweetheart.

BANG!

BACK TO PRESENT

Ghostface pulls out his knife, which Portman panics upon seeing.

PORTMAN: Oh, shit!

Ghostface throws his knife at Portman. But Portman ducks and the knife hits the shelf of glasses, shattering them all.

People proceed to scream and panic over this. They all start running for their lives. A bunch of Venedict's gang members appear out of nowhere and proceeds to shoot at Ghostface. However, Ghostface is wearing body armor and his costume is bulletproof. So none of this fazes him.

As this happens, Portman is crawling on the floor away from the scene. The gunmen stop and are shocked to see their target still standing. Ghostface chuckles over their reaction.

GHOSTFACE: My turn!

And with that, Ghostface pulls out an even larger knife than his traditional one and proceeds to slaughter them. They continue to shoot him. But this doesn't help them. They run of bullets and are killed off one by one.

People start running and warning others about the crazy guy in the white mask. However, Ghostface is only interested in killing the gang. Eventually, the rest of the gang members present at the club is killed off by Ghostface.

Now, all Ghostface needs to do is go after his real target - Portman, who is nowhere to be seen in the club.

EXT. CLUB - NIGHT

Portman storms out through the back door. He takes the rear stairs three at a time, spilling into a couple of back-alley JUNKIES. He stumbles into a pile of garbage. He makes for his car, which is parked nearby. It's the same car he drove the night he murdered Sarah Winters.

INT. PORTMAN'S CAR - NIGHT

Portman fumbles with the key, finally finding the right key, and puts it in the ignition.

EXT. CLUB - NIGHT

Ghostface comes flying off from a second story fire escape, landing atop a car roof on all fours, popping the windows.

PORTMAN: (from his car) GO TO HELL, GHOSTFACE!

GHOSTFACE: You first, Portman!

Portman doesn't want to go first. So he hits the gas and drives off. But Ghostface anticipated this and gets into his own fast car. He races after Portman.

INT. PORTMAN'S CAR/EXT. STREETS OF LAKEHART - NIGHT

Portman breathes as he tries to think. He is hoping that he has lost Ghostface. But then something appears in his rear view mirror -- HEADLIGHTS. Portman realizes that it's Ghostface, who is coming in extremely fast.

PORTMAN: Oh, shit!

Portman steps on it, going the maxium speed. But this doesn't help much as Ghostface, somehow, catches up. Ghostface's car proceeds to rear-end Portman's car.

PORTMAN: FUCK OFF!

Ghostface continues to hit his car. He rides up beside him. The two foes turn to each other. Portman decides that he's not gonna let Ghostface terrorize him. So he spins the wheel and rams into Ghostface's car, trying to veer him off the road. But this doesn't do much as Ghostface does the same to him.

Eventually, Ghostface rams Portman's car extremely hard that Portman loses control of his car.

PORTMAN: OH, FUCK!

CRASH! Portman's car goes through a closed clothing department store.

INT. CLOTHING DEPARTMENT STORE - NIGHT

Portman opens the car door and falls out. He's slightly injured from the crash. He skips his way through the store to hide.

EXT. STREETS OF LAKEHART - NIGHT

Ghostface gets out of his car and heads inside the store through the shattered window from the crash.

INT. CLOTHING DEPARTMENT STORE - NIGHT

ON PORTMAN

Portman is going through the store, looking for a place to hide. But there are too many exposed spots. He runs up some stairs leading to a second floor.

ON GHOSTFACE

Ghostface slowly walks through the dark store. The lights from outside coming through the windows gives us nice views of his white mask.

INT. PHOTOBOOTH - NIGHT

Portman is hiding inside a PHOTOBOOTH. He peaks through a small slit of the curtains.

PORTMAN'S POV

Ghostface looks around for his prey. He opens closet doors, throwing large boxes and piles of clothing around the floor aside, going through places where Portman could be hiding.

BACK TO PORTMAN

Portman is shaking in sheer terror, hoping that Ghostface doesn't find him.

PORTMAN'S POV

Ghostface appears to give up as he cannot find Portman. He walks away, out of Portman's view. Seemingly to have left the area.

BACK TO PORTMAN

Portman sighs in relief. Feeling safe. Perhaps he'll just sit back for a while. Then, suddely -- GHOSTFACE POPS THROUGH THE RIGHT CURTAIN FROM BEHIND AND TACKLES PORTMAN THROUGH THE LEFT CURTAIN.

INT. CLOTHING DEPARTMENT STORE - NIGHT

Ghostface and Portman lands on the floor. Portman kicks Ghostface in the face and proceeds to crawl away. He finds a window with a fire escape and goes for it. But before he can open the window, Ghostface grabs him from behind by his hair. Portman lets out a painful shrieks.

GHOSTFACE: For my Sarah!

Ghostface slices his knife across Portman's throat. Portman gasps in pain. Then Ghostface chucks Portman through the window, shattering it.

EXT. CLOTHING DEPARTMENT STORE/ALLEY - NIGHT

Portman's body flies down from the second story window, landing hard on the concrete ground in the alley. Shattered pieces of glass rains all around his body.

Satisfied by this, Ghostface leaves before the police arrives.
