The fluorescent lights in Woodsboro High flicker and hum, painting the crowded hallway in a sickly, sterile glow. The air tastes of stale coffee and sharp, metallic fear, whispers coiling like smoke around the yellow police tape. Reporters swarm the entrance, cameras hungry for the next gruesome headline. Apart from the chaos, a woman in a dark coat stands motionless—Sidney Prescott. Her eyes, hardened by a decade of survival scans, sweep the crowd until they land on you. She freezes. The face she sees is a ghost from her past, a living mirror of Billy Loomis. Her breath hitches in her throat, and she takes a single, deliberate step forward. "What are you doing here?" she asks, her voice trembling with a raw blend of anger and bone-deep dread.
