Could This Be The End?

There was a hint of hesitancy in the woman's steps as she moved towards the old warehouse, a smile forming on her lips as she thought of what had happened there so long ago.

Three drunk friends promising to kill their best friends, get the revenge that they secretly desired. How wrong everything was now.

There was two of them left. Lily and Hayley. Two who made the original murder plot, the original drunken dream was plotted in their two ticking minds.

Pulling open the door, the ginger woman took a deep breath as she stepped inside and looked around. "Lily!" She called looking around, her eyes trying to adjust to the dark.

Why had Lily wanted to meet here?

That question was soon answered as a match was struck, gently accentuating a small area of the woman's face.

"Hello, Hayley."

Auf Weidersen, Carrie

She'd always been afraid of them. She didn't like their long legs, the little hairs that made them more real. The way they quickly crept across the floor, the way they hid in corners. They were always there but she'd never really thought about them, it only feared her when she saw them.

That's why now, in a dark corner of the town, she was afraid to cross over the bridge because there was a spider there. They'd arranged to meet here. It was their favourite meeting place and everyone knew it was. It was like their den, their treehouse, their clubhouse.

She felt her heart racing, the overwhelming nausea biting at her stomach as she stared hollowly at the creature. It wasn't going to be moving anytime soon.

What she hadn't realised that it wasn't real. It was plastic. Simply bought from a joke shop. It had been put there for a reason...

From behind she was jumped, a hand covering her mouth to stop her from screaming. "Boo..." The voice whispered in her ear, warm breath teasing her ear, flesh tickling her flesh. "It's time to say goodnight, Carrie."

The girl struggled against the binds. The makeshift coffin was just the right size for her. It was almost as if it had been made for her and that's when she realised it had been, her death had been planned.

A shadow covered her and she looked up, her eyes widening in horror as she tried to scream. Her voice being muffled by the gag that had been forced into her small mouth. A smile crept across the shadows face. "Yours is the best, Carrie. Be proud. It'll be known forever..." The voice drawled.

A plastic box was revealed and Carrie could see them scuttling around. She knew what they were and could feel her heart racing as she shook her head, her eyes pleaing for freedom... For them not to be put in her coffin.

The shadow just laughed before opening the box, tipping them out on her chest. "Sweet dreams, Carrie. You'll need them."

A large board was put over her, cutting out the light. The sound of drilling. She'd been locked in.

She could feel her pulse racing, her heart soaring. Blood pumped in her ears. She could feel them crawling over her, minding their own business but she was still scared.

Tears squeezed free from her eyes, a warm sensation rushed between her legs and she knew that too much of this torture was going to kill her.

It took fifteen hours before the struggling stopped, her muffled cries to calm down. They knew she was gone. Lack of oxygen, fear.

Spiders were the murderer technically here.

Short && Sweet

The lack of light hid the two people in shadows as they stood and discussed the next step of their plans. There was only a few of them left then the whole group would be wiped off the face of the earth.

"Who next?"
"Lily."
"No, save her 'til later."
"Carrie then." The partner drawled rolling their eyes before taking hold of the other's hand. "Are you sure this is how you want it to go down?"
"I want it to go down the way it goes down. I don't fucking care anymore."
"Excellent." The voice said, a smile present in the tone. He obviously had something planned for Carrie.

Friendship Lost

The girl sighed as she ran into the police station. Learning about Hayley's arrest had made her rather distressed and she knew she'd never be able to settle unless she knew she was alright.

Hayley was being released that moment, her whole body froze as she saw her stood there. She quickly caught up with her actions and turned to look at the officer, her handcuffed hands moving up with a hint of indignation in her face. She'd hated being treated like a criminal.

"I needed to come make sure you was okay!" Carrie explained before Hayley had even thought about asking her a question.
"Well now you have, you can totter off home." She said in a bored tone of voice, signing her release forms before smiling smugly at Carrie. "You've checked that I'm fine. Pretended to be a friend, you can go back to your good old life."
"Hayley, you know i have no life without you."
"Well then, you're screwed." Hayley spat angrily as she pushed open the doors, smiling as she felt the cold wind bite at her bare skin.

His car screeched into the car park and she ran over to him as he stepped out of the car, her arms being thrown around his neck as she started to kiss him. He kissed her back with that same desperation, that same sense of loss. For being an online relationship, they definitley were working a lot better then they wanted.

"Hayley, understand this. I just want you to be okay."
"I am okay, Carrie."
"Do you know who is murdering our friends?" Hayley moved towards Carrie, her smile almost evil.
"I'd watch out Carrie, you might get unlucky next time." She whispered to her before moving away. "You never know how scared people get."

As the car drove away, Carrie found herself crying. She'd lost her best friend.

Fill In

Looking down at the matted mess that used to be the girl's blonde hair, he sighed as he felt his stomach turn. He'd been wasting time with Hayley... They'd been so convinced that it was her that they'd not even considered the options of it being anyone else.

The ambulance sirens droned away as he rubbed his sweating hands down his trouser legs, his eyes tired as he realised this case was probably going to be his last. He was going to retire peacefully with the memories that he'd lost a girl her life with his stupidity, his neglect that there could have been more... He stopped thinking. There was no point mellowing now. Ellie Harris was dead. That meant Hayley, Carrie or Lily could be next...

He was going to protect them three. If it was the last thing he did...

She sat cross legged on the hard bunkbed they expected her to sleep on. Her eyes were cold and calculating as she stared at the little door letter thing where they put the odd drink for her. She hadn't drank one yet because there was no way she was going to pee on that toilet...

A small smile pressed against her lips as she realised she had him good...
