The end of the day's come, time to go home - but your friend had pressed you to at least fathom going to a party tonight. You denied, but they kept the offer extended. You knew that it was happening at Stu's place, either way, and you still wanted a break from the world as it was at the moment.

Right now, you were scouring the video store for some movies to watch later, pondering over what would garner your attention the most effectively - horror? No, too real at this moment; people were dropping like flies. Romance? Maybe, but then you'd either find yourself wallowing or cynical. Mystery? Could be a good one...

As you scanned the titles, a commotion caught your attention. It was Stu, with company that left almost as soon as it was done: Billy Loomis and Randy Meeks, two of your fellow classmates close to the raging chaos. You turned away, looking back through the isles.
