A/N: Hello everyone and welcome to Stab 7! Like Stab 5, we begin in the real world with movie fans Brian and Amanda plus members of Billy Bob D's Woodsboro High in a non-canon guest appearance with his permission. Make sure you have read Stab 5 (up to chapter 16. The following chapters are just special features) before reading this story.
Stab 7 is a direct sequel to Stab 5 disregarding what takes place in Stab 6. It's sort of in the vein of how in the Halloween franchise 'Halloween: Twenty years later' disregards all the sequels after 2 and functions as a third film in technical terms.
2010
Event: Stab-a-thon
Location: If we told you it won't be a secret
Instructions: Directions will follow upon your reply
Brian was surprised he received an invitation to Stab-a-thon after not being invited to the last one the Cinema Club put on. Then again he heard they all got busted by the police so he wasn't complaining. He contemplated whether he should go or not.
Lost in thought Brian jumped out of his seat when his phone rang and fell to his bedroom floor. "I really need to change that ringtone," he said answering his phone. "Hello."
"Hello Brian. What's your favorite scary movie?" Amanda asked in a bad impression of the Ghostface voice.
"Hey beautiful," Brian greeted his girlfriend. "What's up?"
"I got an invitation to Stab-a-thon and I was told to bring a guest."
"You got an invite?"
"Yeah; they invited me to the last one too," Amanda said.
"They invited you to the first one, but not me? I'm Randy Meeks' fucking spiritual successor! Everyone at school says that! Why wasn't I invited the first time! ?"
"Don't take it too personally, Brian." Amanda remained calm despite his outburst. "It's not like the Stab event features guest appearances by members of the cast or something like that. Woodsboro High is a big school, remember? The Cinema Club can't know everyone there."
"Ok. Ok. When you're right, you're right," Brian said lying back on his bed. "Sorry for snapping; about the invite. I was given one too. I was pondering about going when you called me."
"Do you want to go? It says we can dress up in a costume if we wish as some gimmick."
"Really. What are you dressing as?" Brian asked curiously.
"It's a surprise," Amanda said in a sultry voice.
"Tease," Brian whined.
"Don't be a baby, baby," she said and hung up the phone. Brian exhaled and returned to the text message. He replied yes and tossed his phone aside. Ten second later he heard it indicate that he had a new message.
"That was unnaturally quick," he said accessing the message.
Date: Exactly one week from now. Party starts at 7:00 p.m. in accordance with the 7 Stab films.
Location: Directions will be sent in 4 days.
You may dress in costume if you desire. Costume doesn't have to be from a movie. However, all costumes related to the Twilight Saga are banned.
Feel free to bring a guest.

Brian looked over his costume wondering if it was the best choice in the end. "Too late to turn back now," he said and knocked on Amanda's door. Amanda stepped out and if Brian's jaw could drop to the floor it would.
"Is that a web shooter in your pocket or are you just real happy to see me?" Amanda asked in a seductive tone.
Brian's throat became dry. His eyes travelled up and down. He uttered a single word. "Meow."
Amanda giggled and traced her black cat claws down his chest. She took off his mask and leaned in for a kiss. After they broke apart Amanda made a long purring noise.
"You're killing me," Brian said; his eyes remaining closed.
"Let's go Spidey," she said having to pull her half-dazed boyfriend with her to his car.
They arrived at Stab-a-thon 30 minutes before the event was set to commence. But the secret location was packed. Everybody was in costume from other genres besides horror. There were people dressed as Neo, multiple Elektras, Iron Man, Ferris Bueller, Jason, Michael Myers, and some were dressed as Sidney Prescott.
"Glad you guys could make it!" Robbie said running up to meet them. "Nice costumes," he said crossing his arms at their Spider-man and Black Cat outfits.
"Look who's talking," Brian said observing how Robbie was dressed in the same clothes worn by Randy Meeks in Stab 1. He even had fake blood smeared over parts of his shirt and face.
"We did not plan this," Amanda said. "I'm dead serious."
"You know who's dead serious? ME!" Niley jumped out of the shadows making a hilariously bad scary face. Brian and Amanda exchanged glances; wondering if they should pretend to be frightened or not.
"You don't have to pretend to be scared. I'm just playing," Niley said dropping the act. "For now," she added.
"But you better watch your backs because…1, 2 Niley's coming for you!" She made the scary face again and ran her Kruger claws through her hair. She giggled, waved, wrapped her arms around Robbie, and pretended to drag him off to a dark corner of the building.
"Niley. I find her very strange at times," Brian stated.
"But at the same time you can't help, but like her," Amanda said.
"Well if isn't Brian," Olivia said. She came dressed up as Sidney Prescott like she was two Halloweens ago. "Nice costumes," she commented sarcastically.
"When will people believe that neither of us planned this?" Brian asked.
"Never, if you want my opinion," Olivia offered. "By the way. Have either of you seen Jill? We were supposed to meet up at the entrance 10 minutes ago, but she hasn't shown."
"Maybe she's running late," Brian gave as an explanation.
"For this? Jill loves the Stab flicks. There isn't a thing on this Earth that could make her miss out on…"
"Surprise Sidney!" Ghostface cried out. He bashed into her back and Olivia's face crashed against the hard floor. Ghostface pulled out two knives and slashed down at Olivia's neck. She screamed so loud that all the teenagers dropped what they were doing and ran to the source of the noise.
"Um…Olivia. You can stop screaming," Brian said; laughs bursting to the surface and ceasing when Amanda elbowed him in the stomach. Olivia opened her eyes and saw two knives firmly planted on either side of her face. Ghostface laughed like a psycho and rolled off of Olivia's back.
"If only you could've seen the look on your face," Ghostface snickered pulling off her mask to reveal none other than Jill Roberts.
"Jill! What the fuck! ? You scared me half to death!" Olivia screamed at her.
"You came dressed as Sidney Prescott. You were begging for this to happen," Jill said.
"You couldn't have attacked the other Sidneys? I'm not the only one here," Olivia said exasperated.
"Where's the enjoyment in that?" Jill questioned.
"Are those real knives?" Olivia asked.
"Yes," Jill answered like there was no harm done.
"Weren't we searched upon entry for dangerous items?"
"Yes. You just need to know where to hide things you don't want others to find," Jill said poking Olivia with her knife and running it down her neck.
"Jill…sometimes you scare me," Olivia confessed and ran away.
"Am I scary?" Jill asked.
"Well…uh. Not exactly," the couple said at the same time.
"It's just…you can be intimidating at times," Roy said from behind her. "Remember when we saw Stab 5. The look you had on your face when I made you stop bashing in those DVD's would've given Billy Loomis a heart attack. Lest we forget how you were pounding the disks like a woman possessed. I've never seen that side of you before."
"It's like Norman Bates said in 'Psycho' and Billy Loomis said in 'Stab'. We all go a little mad sometimes," Jill said to the trio. She put her mask back on and rejoined the festivities.
"Attention everyone!" Charlie Walker announced into the microphone. Like Jill he was dressed up as Ghostface.
"Welcome and thank you for coming to the second annual Stab-a-thon. Ok technically it isn't annual as we didn't have one last year and we only brought it back due to popular demand, but we hope it will become annual after this year." The crowd grew very silent and Charlie was certain he heard crickets chirping in the audience.
"Before we kick things off," Robbie said coming to Charlie's rescue, "We have a surprise for you all! After we view Stabs 1-6 we have in our possession a perfect boot legged copy of the not yet released Stab 7!" The crowd erupted into a thunderous applause and all clinked their beer bottles together. "We can enjoy that at the end of our Stab marathon…hold on. Sorry I gotta take this," he said answering his phone.
"Dude where are you? You were supposed to be here a half hour ago. Uh huh; what the Hell man! ? You honestly tried flirting your way out of it! ? I want my money back...! You dick!" Robbie shouted and shut his phone.
"That was the guy who was supposed to bring in the DVD calling us with his one phone call from the police station. He got caught speeding by Judy Hicks and Dewey Riley." At that name the audience all booed.
"Come on guys. Dewey's a nice guy. I know for a fact he' s only reported half the things you guys have done here in Woodsboro." That got the booing to cease.
"Anyway he tried to flirt his way out of the speeding ticket, which only aggravated Judy, who noticed his nervous behavior, took a look inside his car, and found the bootlegged DVD. So unfortunately we will all have to wait a month and go to the movies to pay and see Stab 7." The audience groaned once more.
"The fact that we keep bootlegging DVD's is why the movie industry started to convert films to 3D," Brian whispered to Amanda. "It's the only way they think they can regain their box-office gross these days; in my opinion at least."
"But to keep interest in Stab 7 flowing through you all here's the teaser trailer for the film, which we did manage to procure before it comes out tomorrow. Lights please," Robbie asked. The light shut off and Robbie accidently tripped off the stage.
"I'm okay," he groaned.
The screen starts off black. A phone call echoes in the dark. A person answers it, but we don't see at first.
Person: Hello.
Ghostface: Hello Emma. Surprised to hear my voice again?
Emma: Nice try Jessica.
Jessica: Caller I.D.
*Emma opens the front door to her dorm. Jessica is standing right there.*
Emma: Caller I.D.
*She hangs up and and the Stab theme plays steadily growing in intesity.*
From Suspense Master Fred Nevarc
*Emma is pacing around her room. Jessica is lying on her bed*
Emma: I know I'm being paranoid, but I can' help feeling that we're not out of danger.
Jessica: It's been 2 and a half years, Emma. Jade is still locked up in that institution. What do you have to be worried about?
*The phone starts to ring. The scene changes as the phone continues to ring.*
*Sidney cautiously reaches for a doorknob. Judy nervously loads her gun. The phone ceases it rings and we go to black.*
Emma: Hi you've reached Emma's cell. Leave a message.
*Ghostface slashes at the screen and an unknown person screams. The Stab theme plays at full intensity this time.*
THERE IS ONLY ONE THING MORE TERRIFYING THAN HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Jessica: Emma! Come back to me!
*Emma looks as if she is in a trance; nose bleeding again. Jessica shakes her body roughly. The door kicks open and the shot stops on Jessica's terrified expression.*
AND THAT'S
*Sidney rushes up the stairs to the top of a building. Ghostface grabs her clothes tripping her.*
HOW IT WILL ALL END
Ghostface: You ready to end this?
Sidney: Bring it!
STAB 7!
Chloe: There's something really scary about a guy with a knife, who just… snaps.
*The screen cuts to black*
This October there are…
No rules
*Rules fades away and is replaced by a second word*
NO MERCY
The Stab fanatics all went nuts (in a good way) and raised their drinks into the air. Jill watched from the corner of the room withdrawn from the others. Her mouth twitches into a smirk.
"Watch a few movies. Take a few notes."
A/N: Next chapter (after a few more Stab-a-thon hi-jinx) we jump ahead a month to the gang saddling up to see Stab 7. Like Stab 5, the movie itself won't start until chapter 3. Some of the new cast members in Stab 7 include Matthew Dallas, Ali Larter, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
The trailer did not give away anything important, FYI. C ya!
