Corey left the hospital the second they stitched up his wounds. He refused to stay and Sidney practically begged him too, he of course denied. The drive back to Jill's house was silent and Corey held onto a cigarette the smoke going outside the window as Sidney parked the car.

"I really think you should've stayed overnight" he got out of the car "nah, last time I did that, I was attacked in the hospital hallway, rather not go down that lane again, besides I feel fine".

He walked into the house hearing the loudness of laughing "at least Jill is happy, I don't know how she can handle all of this, then again it's different for her". Corey walked up the stairs Sidney beside him "she reminds me of well me, I was like her when I was around that age".

Corey grinned "that was when we didn't really know each other. Just walked to school together and talked about boring shit that made no sense". Sidney opened the guest bedroom "maybe once all of this is done, we can finally just settle down, maybe finally get married".

He let out a hum "you're so desperate to become Mrs. Prescott-Becker, it's a very good look on you, I would kiss you right now, but might scare the children right next door to us". Sidney laughed lightly as they walked into the guest bedroom.

Corey laid down sighing deeply "you know I would've thought I'd be used to getting stabbed by now, it still hurts like a bitch". Sidney smiled sadly as she laid down beside him "I was worried when you didn't pick up your phone".

Corey turned to his side wincing slightly at the discomfort of it. "Hey I'm not going anywhere, at least not in a very long time. From now on we stick together, I told Tatum to stay home, not to worry about this shit, she was going on about coming here, but luckily I convinced her to stay".

Corey pushed Sidney's hair back slightly smiling at her "you're so beautiful" she smiled as he kissed her. The moment faded when screaming entered the air "oh my god! Olivia!" Corey stood up fast.

He ran out of the room bursting into Jills room his eyes widen when he saw Olivia being attacked from the window. "Mother fucker" he ran out of the room quickly going into his suitcase grabbing a hold of his gun making sure it's loaded.

He runs outside seeing Sidney running into the house already, he lets out a shaky breath as he runs inside "Sid!" he runs up the stairs letting out a heavy breath at the sight of Olivia's body.

"Shit" he grabs a hold of Sidney looking around for the killer. "Sidney! Corey!" Jill's voice was loud and Sidney ran out of the room "Jill, stay right there" Jill let out a shaky breath "is she?".

"Do not look, ok? Stay back" Corey stepped out of the room "there's a pet door around her neck" he let out a weak chuckle "asshole can't think of anything original to do". Jill looked at the man and then at Sidney as she smiled sadly.

"She said you were the Angels of Death" Sidney's eyes widen "look out!". Jill screamed when the knife sliced her arm, Sidney pushed her out of the way tackling the killer down the steps.

"Mother fucker!" Corey ran down the stairs kicking the figure in the face making sure they don't get anywhere near Sidney. "Ready for round two already, I'm feeling very honored here!".

He pointed his gun at the figures mask he didn't hesitate to shot. The figure flew towards the ground as Corey walked towards them shooting again.

He screamed when his leg was swept making him fall towards the ground as the figure stood up. The mask held two small indents from the bullets. "Oh come on! I went for the fucking head!".

The figure tackled Corey into the wall the man screaming as the knife stabbed him in the stomach. He went to shot but the figure grabbed his arm making him hit the wall instead.

Corey laughed as he leaned towards the figures ear whispering "my dead husband can kill better then you, I'm gonna kill you slowly..".

The knife left his stomach and he let it slice his hand slightly as he pushed the figure into the wall. The crazed look in his eyes made Jill nervous as Corey shot the figures leg making them scream as they fell towards the ground.

Corey pressed his foot into there chest as he shot the other leg. "Try getting me now bitch!" he kneeled down grabbing the knife off the ground and stabbing the figure in the chest.

"Fuck you! FUCK YOU!" he felt the warmth of the blood mending into his flesh as he kept stabbing. He laughed as he stabbed the knife down again and again the blood merging into his clothes as he smirked down at the mask.

He pulled the mask off standing up off the ground as he let out a heavy breath. With one switch movement he wiped the blood off the knife.

He placed the mask against the wall stabbing it with the knife making it become stuck. "Fucking amateur" he grabbed a cigarette out of his pocket walking outside and lighting it.

He glared at the police officers who now appeared there eyes wide at the sight of him. He waved at them "he's in here officers!" he puffed on the cigarette letting the officers walk inside.

"Holy shit" Kirby looked at Corey as she slowly approached the front door. Kirby ran inside gasping loudly "is that.. Charlie!" the police sirens were loud but Corey didn't move away from the porch.

He sat down laughing to himself as he watched Charlie's body get moved out of the house. He saw the news vans and the ambulances and he saw the looks he got from everyone. Even Sidney and Jill.

Sidney was more so concerned and Jill's was fear, she kept it hidden but she couldn't help but look at him as she let her arm get patched up.

Corey stood up looking at everyone who was looking at the horror of what happened.

"I Thought this was over!" he sighed deeply as he looked at Olivia's body being placed into the back of an ambulance. "It's all your fault, Sidney! Just like your mother!" Corey sneered angrily.

He walked towards Sidney and Jill "you two alright?" Sidney looked at him "you are alright? I saw the way you killed that kid, you looked..".

"Crazy? Pissed off that my life was being ruined by some stupid teenager? Sidney, in case you didn't notice, our life's are fucked! That kid would've kept coming after us until we were dead, the way I see it, I defeated myself, took down a threat. It's not my fault he decided to put on that mask, and if he had a partner, I won't hesitate to kill them too".

Jill looked at Corey "I can't believe it was Charlie, I thought he was my friend" Corey looked at her his face emotionless "that wasn't your friend". He walked away going towards an ambulance.

"Corey!" he looked at Gale who ran towards him "are you alright! That's a lot of blood" he shrugged his shoulders "this isn't my blood. At least not all of it, I'll be fine after I take a shower".

He felt the stares, the ones that made the world around feel fuzzy. Deep down he enjoyed the feeling of taking Charlie's life, the blood that stained his skin felt like it was meant to belong there. He looked at the ring that rested on his finger, it didn't feel like it belonged.

He reached into his shirt pocket pulling out the ring that he never could truly part ways with. Sidney thought it was locked away inside his bedroom dresser but he kept it close to his heart.

He looked down at it a smirk rising on his lips. Now he understood why Roman put on the mask.

Can you tell I hate Charlie? he was feeling silly bet he regrets going after Corey now. Corey's inner Roman was coming to the surface a little bit there hinting towards future events... hint hint... ghostface era? Maybe? Maybe not?
