Heavy breathing fills the air.
Heavy stomps shake the ground.
A heavy axe slides along the grass.
Honey-Blue Dean will never know what she had done, for she herself died when she picked up that axe on the tree stump. Honey-Blue Dean will never know that she is about to murder her best friend.
"Sheila? Sheila are you still in here?"
Ziggy screams from inside the outhouse, she and Sheila yank, scream and hit at each other.
"I'm trying to help you! There's a killer-"
The redhead is cut off by a swift slap to the face. Ziggy retaliates by punching Sheila in the head. "oh shit" Ziggy swears at herself as Sheila's unconscious body tumbles to the ground.
"I heard shouting. What's going--"
A camp counselor cuts himself off, seeing Shiela knocked out cold.
"What's going on in here?" Gary asks in disbelief "What the fuck?"
"Is everyone ok?" Ziggy cuts Gary off.
"Everyones headed back to the Mess Hall! Wheres Nick?"
Unknown to the two ShadySiders. Honey heard the screams of girls and was swiftly making her way towards them.
"Whats going on?" Gary asks.
"My sisters in the toilet"
"What?" Gray asks just to be sure he heard that right
"Gary just help me!"
Ziggy and Gary lower a bucket down the toilet to the relief of Cindy and Tommy.
"Get on! We're pulling you up!" Ziggy calls down.
Cindy gestures for Tommy to climb in first.
"You first" Tommy, without much complaint, goes first.
Up the top, Ziggy turns to Gary, who looks reluctant and disgusted at the situation he is in. "Now" Ziggy tells him.
They start to pull.
"Keep pulling" Ziggy encourages, grunting with effort.
The door creaks open.
"Honey" Gray says in relief, before noticing her strange attire.
"Honey, what are you doing?"
Ziggy turns at the sound of her best friends voice.
Honey makes a giant swing. Ziggys eyes widen in shock as an axe swings past her.
Maybe Honey-Blue Dean wasn't dead, maybe she was aware of what she was doing, maybe she was trapped deep within and she could see the pain she cause and the fear they felt. How else could Honey-Blue Dean have missed Ziggy so obviously? It was love that saved Ziggy from Honey's axe, the love of two best friends.
Honeys axe makes contact with Garys neck, detaching it from his body. Ziggy screams in horror. Garys body tumbles down the toilet into the red moss and piles of toilet paper and shit.
Honey's love for Ziggy doesn't save her best friend for long, soon enough her arms are swinging down again, this time into the floor.
Ziggy sprints out of the outhouse in a mess of confusion and loss.

Meanwhile, Honey prowls the camp, looking for a new victim. She watches silently as kids with red shirts run past her. That's when she sees it, her next kill of the night.
Joan pulls her blue shirt over her shoulders, watching as Kurt goes into the bathroom. Honey watches blankly from the window as Joan lights her joint with a matchstick.
Honey stealthy moves from the window around the cabin.
"You know, you Sunnyvalers are really missing out" Joan takes another drag "This shit, like, really...opens up your mind"
"Put it out!" Kurt yells from the shower.
Joan complies with a roll of her eyes, before standing to collect her shorts. That's when she sees the door open. Joan goes to see if anything is wrong, standing at the door, looking left and right, right and left. Before smiling "Ooookie Dokie" she breathes.
When she turns she sees Honey-Blue Dean, holding an ax across her chest, dripping with blood.
"Honey." Joan whimpers.
The young girl just stares at the counselor, before swinging her ax above her head and bringing it down onto Joan's shoulders.
Joan screams, in a mix of fear and pain, falling to the ground.
Honey yanks the ax out of her shoulder with a sicking squelch, raising the ax again and swinging it down onto Joan's forehead. Honey pulls the ax out and walks out of the cabin, never once looking in Kurt's direction.
Honey makes her way from Kurts' cabin to the Arts and Crafts center, seeing three blue shirts and one red. She waits.
"Everyone the game is over!" A voice commands. "Get back to the mess hall!"
Honey-Blue watches as the light fades from the cabin, along with the red shirt, leaving the Shady-side kids in the dark.
A matchstick is struck.
"Maybe we should just leave." a girl says.
It's silent, the summer wind is the only thing heard.
The light goes out.
"Shit." A boy says, he strikes another match.
"Honey?" the girl whimpers. Seeing the older girl standing there blankly.

Ziggy pushed her way to the front only to find Jeremy dead. There were screams of terror from campers, but Ziggy couldn't do anything but stare at Jeremy's corpse, his face split in half with fresh blood gushing from it with chunks of flesh swirling around.
Nick Goode made his way to Ziggys side, almost as shocked as her. Ziggy took shallow breaths before the feeling of vomit making its way up her throat become too much for her, she ran away from the scene and Nick followed.
Gary rang the bell, signaling to the remaining campers that the game was over. "Let's go! Not part of the game!" He called out, ushering kids inside the mess hall.
Inside the mess hall, Nick counted the campers.
"Five, seven, eight, ten, fifteen, eighteen..."
The lights suddenly went out, leaving the kids in a state of panic, screams rippled among the kids.
Nick strode over to Gary "Wheres Cindy, Kurt, Joan?" He asked impatiently. "I don't know, I haven’t seen them, or Tommy or anyone" He replied. "Maybe they're looking for us?"
Nick grabbed the phone off the wall as the lights flickered back on. "It's dead," Nick said, slamming the phone back into place.
"We have to go. We have to warn people" Ziggy determined
"I'm sure there heard the bell. Hey!"
Nick grabbed Ziggy
"My sister she's still out there!" Ziggy tried to pull herself free, but Nick's grip was too tight. "The same sister that you've hated since you were a baby?" Ziggy tried to push past again but to no avail. "Look, I'm sorry. I didn’t mean it. Me and Gary will go"
Gary turned to Nick with a look of pure terror.
"What?" his bottom lip trembled
Nick ignored him. "Just please stay here"
"No! I can't sit here!"
"I'm not letting you get hurt!" Nick yelled.
A few campers gave them strange looks. "Ok? please, let me do my job" Nick begged. "I'm gonna find your sister. Just stay here. Ok?"
Nick left the hall with Gary reluctantly following.
"You do know that's a camper, right?"
Nick disregards Garys' comment "Look, you make for cabin one. I'll head to nine"
Nick hands Gary a torch
"Wait, what if the killers still out there?" Gary trembles
"That's the whole point, Gary"
Gary walks to the middle of the room and addresses the campers "Hey, everybody! Stay here! Ok? Ok"
The two boys leave the mess hall full of scared campers.

Ziggy and Nick were in the science and nature building. They were laughing at the Ziggys bully, Shileas frog-like screams. They were talking and they both felt like they really understood one another.
"Alright next question" Nick poked at the glass cage with a possum in it. "Uh...what about you and your sister? You guys ever get along?" he asked. Ziggy looked down at she was holding
"Thought these were supposed to be easy questions," she said, trying to deflect.
"Says who? There are no 'rules' to this game" Nick said trying to lighten the mood.
"God I hate snakes"
"Why you dodging my question?"'
Ziggy stood up straight. The room suddenly felt suffocating and cold.
"Why do you care?" she asked defensively.
"Curious" Nick replied not at all fazed by Ziggys hostile ways.
Ziggy and Nick looked at each other for a moment before Ziggy opened her mouth.
"I've hated her since I was a baby" She quickly said. "Next question"
"C'mon" Nick chuckled
Ziggy ignored him. "Why are you so full of shit?"
"What?" Nick Godde laughed
"Nick Goode, heir apparent, daddy was the police chief, the king of Sunnyvale and now you're gonna be the same"
...
"Except it's all make-believe. The truth is you like Stephen King and spiders and the weird girl from Shadyside."
"Alright, first of all, Stephen King, is like, super popular"
Ziggy rolled her eyes
"And second" Nick paused and looked down before looking back at Ziggy almost reluctantly "I can't like the weird girl"
"Why not?"
"Because I'm a counselor. She's a camper"
"Last year for me, first year for you" Zigg said simply
"Plus, how will I get to know her when she keeps dogging my questions?"
Nick sat down next to Ziggy who had her arms crossed.
"There was a time when things were good between us." she started. "When my dad was around and mum was happy, and my sister and me, we would um...we'd through toilet paper on Mr. Corkle's tree, and then go jumping into the lake in all our clothes and..." Ziggy's face was lighting up at the thought of the past. "And now...now it's just gone and everything's shit" Ziggys face went back to being like stone.
Ziggy looked at Nick, "but that's what happens when you like in Shadyside. Everything turns to shit eventually...but I wouldn't expect a Sunnyvaler to understand"
Nick was looking at Ziggy. "No, maybe your right. But uh...being the heir isn't always easy either" Nick looked down in what seemed to be regret. "Before he died, my dad loaded me up with all this, you know 'you're my legacy, the future of the family depends on you' bullshit. You know he just dropped this huge burden onto my lap and...I dunno, what if I don't want that?"
Ziggy looked at him with pity
"What if that's not who I wanna be? What if I want to be the weird kid who likes spiders and Stephen king and-"
"-and the weird girl from Shadyside?"
Nick Goode nodded "Yeah...the weird girl from Shadyside"
"But uh... I guess there's nothing I can do about it" Nick finished.
"Why not?" Ziggy asked confused
Nick abruptly stood up from the bench and rubbed his neck. "Yeah you're right, can we uh...go back to the easy questions?" Nick dogged.
"Ok" Ziggy sighed, also stood up "Um..." Ziggy stood in front of him "How 'bout...would you ever kiss the weird girl?"
Nick leaned in and so did Ziggy, their lips touched.

"Arnie!" Alice screamed. Cindy, Alice and Tommy all watched as Honey yanked the ax out of Arnies head, she turned her head to the trio, who realised that they would be her next targets.
Alice tried to run to Arnie and she would have made it if not for Honey and her swinging ax. She swung it low first, hitting Alices shins, and then, when Alice fell to the ground, Honey swung her ax into her back repeatedly. Alices blood spurted onto Honey's face, mixing with her boyfriend.
Tommy started to push Cindy back down the stone steps.
"Go, go, go, go!" he screamed at her. They rushed down the winding hallways, with Honey quick on their tail.
Cindy and Tommy came into an open room, with the witches mark on the floor, behind the mark, are stone slabs with peoples names carved into them, at the bottom of one of the slabs, Honey-Blue Deans name is carved messily into the stone.
Cindy and Tommy ignored it when they heard Honey drag her ax along with the stone flooring.
Cindy rushes towards the bookshelf that covers a hole in the wall, Tommy helps as well.
"AHHHH!" Cindy screams in fright at seeing the sight of Honey all bloody.
"Go! Go, Cindy!" Tommy pushes Cindy through the whole. Tommy follows swiftly after, but before he could get through the whole Honey gripped his ankle tightly, Tommy yells in fright and Cindy tries to pull Tommy towards her. Tommy kicks at Honey for her to let go of his ankle.
Tommy slams his foot into Honey-Blues face successfully knocking her off of him. Honey hits the top of the whole harshly making the whole structure rumble and groan.
Honey pulls herself out of the hole right before it is sealed up with heavy rocks. Honey groans in annoyance before snatching her ax up off the floor and leaving the room and makes her way buck up to the surface.
Honey walked around the camp before seeing a bunch of sunny vale kids run away from a barn. Honey paid no mind to the kids but instead made her way to the barn where there was light. As she got closer, Honey noticed a boy standing by himself.
It was Jeremy.
Jeremy was cleaning, what seemed to be egg, off of his glasses.
Jeremy knew Honey-Blue Dean. She used to babysit him when he was younger, she used to help him with his multiplication homework.
"Honey?" he asked when he saw her. She stared blankly back at him.
"Honey, what happened?" He asked when he saw her covered in blood.
"Honey, what are you doing?" He asked when he saw her start to walk toward him, ax in tow.
"Honey!?"
Honey-Blue Dean swung her ax into the smaller boy's head.

Honey watched as Ziggy plotted her revenge with red paint, inspired by the book Carrie, Honey never really liked Stephen Kings' novels but would indulge Ziggy by listening to her endless rants on how amazing his books were.
"I'm bored!" Honey groaned, breaking the silence.
Ziggy barely looked up "Then leave?" she said like it's obvious.
"But I don’t wanna leave you alone" Honey sighed. "You always do stupid shit when you're alone"
Ziggy snapped her head up "No I don't!" she protested.
Honey laughed "Oh yeah? What about last summer? When you thought it was a good idea to throw all of Shelia's clothes in the lake?"
"That wasn't stupid, that was brilliant" Ziggy responded with a giggle. Honey giggled along with her.
"Why don't you go play the color war?" Ziggy asked, Honey, looked at her like she was crazy "Alone?" She asked, Ziggy nodded "And get the shit beaten out of me by Shelia and her gang of trust funds? I don't think so" Honey dismissed.
Ziggy felt bad for Honey.
Honey always felt like she had to take care of Ziggy and fight her battles for her Honey felt like a mother at the age of 15 to an adopted child.
"Shelia's not going to touch you" Ziggy tried to reason.
Honey looked at Ziggy with a face that said 'really bitch?'
"No I promise, and if she does" Ziggy pointed down at the red paint "We'll get back at her"
Honey reluctantly walked to the door, "you sure?" she asked one final time.
Ziggy fondly rolled her eyes "go!" she pushed.
Honey finally left the cabin with her blue shirt tucked into her denim shorts.
It was starting to get dark, Honey figured that the Color war had already started because of how deserted the camp seemed to be.
Honey started to make her way towards the woods, walking past Nick Goode who avoided all eye contact with her.
"Hey Honey" Nick hesitantly called out to her last minute.
"Yeah?"
"I'm sorry about what happened" He apologized
Honey shrugged "It's not your fault" She awkwardly smiled.
Nick nodded but didn't believe her. "I'll see you later Honey-Blue"
Honey nodded and ran off into the woods.
"Honey!" A voice yelled. Honey tripped over her own feet, startled by the voice. She fell in front of the wood storage, the split wood was all stacked in neat lines on one wall, the ax was stuck in a wooden stump.
Honey seemed to faze out. Her body was drawn towards the ax. Her head started to ache even more but she paid no mind to it.
Honey wrapped one hand around the ax and then, she felt nothing.
"Honey, there you are" Arnie sighed, "Where the fuck have you been?" He sternly asked.
Honey, yanked the ax out of the stump, and with one swift, sharp movement, she slammed the sharp end of the ax into Arnies stomach.
"Ahhh!" He screamed out. He fell to the ground with Honey watching blankly.
"What the fuck Honey!" He yelled at her trying to crawl away.
Honey said nothing, felt nothing. She lifted the ax above her head and slammed it back down into Arnies Skull.

Ziggy watched as Nurse Lane was wheeled away in a stretcher. Ziggy was sitting next to Honey-Blue, at first she was mad at her for getting Nick Goode to help her, but once Ziggy saw Honey, her concern and worry overpowered her anger. Ziggy wrapped her arm around Honey's shoulder.
Honey was shivering despite the fact that it was the middle of summer and that she was wrapped up in a blanket.
Tommy was answering questions that were asked by a police officer, Honey was too shaken up to even be considered to ask questions.
"Are you okay?" Ziggy asked cautiously.
Honey nodded at her. "Are you mad at me for getting Goode?" Honey asked. Ziggy laughed at her "You were attacked and you're more worried about if I'm mad at you?" Honey blushed but giggled along with her.
Shelia twisted Ziggys body by her shoulder. A mocking smile was painted across her lips.
"I just wanted to say that we are so sorry" she mocked, "I know that you and Nurse psycho are close"
Honey stands up to defend Ziggy who glares angrily at Sheila. "Shelia, can you just fuck off?"
Shelia barely even looks in Honeys' direction before taking a step closer to Ziggy.
"By the way, you might wanna check your stuff...think there was an accident in cabin five" Shelia laughed as Ziggy pulled Honey along with her to swiftly check the damage in cabin five.
In the cabin, words were painted above Ziggys and Honeys beds.
'Witch'
'Ziggy is a witch bitch'
'MONSTER'
'Honey-Blue the Shadyside whore'
along with a satanic pentagram over each of the beds.
Honey started to tear up at the sight. She's been called names before, but she has never seen it in writing, and for some reason, the writing hurt more.
"Wait here, I'll be back" Ziggy rushed out of the room, already plotting her revenge on Shelia. Ziggy left Honey standing in the room alone. Honey stares blankly at the words above her bed, her eyes follow the words but they always come back to the pentagram.
"Honey" a voice whispers. Honey feels a dull ache at the back of her neck. "Honey" a voice whispers again. Honey scans the room for the voice. "Honey!" the voice says again, it's coming from the vents in the room. Honey starts to walk towards the voice in a daze before the door is suddenly slammed open by Ziggy.
"That's what they all say," Ziggy tells her sister Cindy.

oh yes...and watch out for horrible grammar and spelling...someone please help me.
Honey-Blue Dean was the daughter of two hippy shady siders. Her best friend, Ziggy, was probably the only person she could talk to, since her parents were always away chasing some new type of high. Ziggy understood Honey like no one else. Ziggy knew that the only things Honey-Blue liked about herself was her long curly brown hair that could always be seen in a high ponytail, her iconic fringe that covered the pimples on her forehead. And her name.
Ziggy also knew that Honey-Blue Dean would never hurt a fly, let alone murder eight kids.
Honey was a sweat girl, most people really liked her, she was always nice to everyone, even Sunny Vale kids. But she wasn’t afraid to bite back when things started to get heated between herself and Shelia.
Honey-Blue Dean usually never found herself involved with Ziggys’ mischief, but unfortunately Ziggy dragged Honey along with her along to steal money from Shelia.
“C’mon Honey!” Ziggy called out to her. They were being chased by Shelia and her gang of psychopaths. Ziggy swiped a low branch out of her path only for it to slap Honey in the face on its way back.
“ouch!” Honey yelped.
They continued to run as fast as they could, they could almost see the camp sign, Honey smiled in relief before Ziggy was knocked to the floor with a great big “oomph!”. Honey turned around in confusion before running directly into a tree.
Honey’s eyes clouded with tears in pain, but she swallowed them back in fear of Sheila making fun of her for being a crybaby.
Honey-Blue quickly jumped to her feet and saw Ziggy being picked up by Nick Goodes younger brother, Matthew. Honey ran away from the scene to get help from a counselor.
Honey ran, around camp trying to find a sahdyside counselor that would help her, and was preferably not Cindy.
Honey, after much debate, decided that the best option was to go to Nick Goode.
“Goode!” she yelled out to him, he turned around in confusion and saw Honey-Blue running at full speed towards him. She stopped in front of him, panting like a dog on a summers day.
“Honey? What’s wrong? Are you okay?” Nick asked.
Kurt, another counselor saw the commotion from afar and walked towards them.
“What did you little shits do now?” Kurt asked aggressively.
“Shelia is chasing Ziggy” Honey reviled. There was panic in her voice. Honey truely cared for her best friend and felt bad that she left her there to defend herself.
“Okay?” Nick asked, confused why it was so urgent.
Honey looked ready to slap him. “No, no, no, no, Shelia is chasing Ziggy!” Nick realised that Honey meant Sheila was going to hurt Ziggy and ran off, with Kurt following.
Honey wanted to follow but decided against it. Instead Honey went to her cabin to wait for Ziggy.
Honey-Blue passed Nurse Lane on the way and waved at her. Nurse Lane didn’t wave back but smiled apologetically. It was like Nurse Lane was trying to say sorry without actually saying it, it unnerved Honey a lot.
Honey waited inside her cabin for Ziggy, she was patiently waiting to apologise to her for leaving her behind to get help. Honey-Blue didn’t notice that Nurse Lane was watching from afar, before walking back to her office where Ziggy was snooping in Nurse Lanes book of the Shadysides curse.
Honey-Blue was startled out of her daydream when someone knocked repeatedly on the cabin door. Honey cautiously walked towards the door.
“Who is it?” she asked.
They didn’t answer. The banging continued.
“Who is it?!” Honey asked again, louder.
They didn’t answer.
Honey rolled her eyes before opening the door. It was Nurse Lane.
Honey frowned “Nurse Lane? What are you doing?” Nurse Lane said nothing but pushed her way into the cabin.
“I’m sorry sweetheart” Nurse Lane started. “But I can’t save you”
Honey noticed that she was clutching a knife. Honey-Blue started to become scared of what the women would do to her.
“I saw your name, I saw it on the wall”
Nurse Lane started to walk towards Honey. Honey walked backwards until she was up against the wall.
“One way or another, your gonna die tonight”
“Nurse Lane?” Honey asked with tears rolling down her face.
With a battle cry Nurse Lane rushed towards Honey with her knife raised to kill. Honey screamed in terror, she was pushed to the ground by the crazed nurse and watched in horror as Nurse Lane went for the kill. That was before Tommy Slater rushed into the cabin and grabbed Nurse Lane by the shoulders and pushed her off of Honey. Nurse Lane hit her head against the bedside table and was knocked out.
Honey was in shock.
“Are you okay?” Tommy asked while helping her up. Honey shook her head before breaking down and shoving her face into Tommys chest. Tommy wrapped his arm around her and swiftly lead her away from the cabin.
