Disclaimer: I own nothing One Tree Hill related. This is a pretty dark story completely AU. Read and Review!

Rated: T+ some sexual content, language, and violence.

Going into their senior year, the gang wanted to do something fun for The Fourth Of July. It's too bad the group of 17 year olds idea of fun is different then some people's.

Background:

Brooke: Has been with Lucas for the past 5 months. Her first serious boyfriend in a string of one-night stands she's had since eighth grade. Her best friend is Rachel, having stayed at her house for the past year. Peyton and Brooke haven't been as close since Brooke and Lucas got together.

Nathan: Has been with Haley for over a year. They are not married and she only recently lost her virginity to him. Lucas is his half brother. They battled it out not liking each other at all their freshman year, but noticing Luke's ability to perform on the court Nathan finally backed off and respected him.

Haley: Is the un-athletic nerd we all have come to know and love. Her and Lucas have been best friends forever, they aren't as close though anymore ever since Luke left Peyton. Became best friends with Peyton when she started dating Luke, they stayed close after the break-up.

Lucas: Dated Peyton for 2 years before Brooke. It was a mutual break-up but things are still semi-awkward given they are still in the same group of friends.

Peyton- Started dating Jake 8 months ago, having gained an attraction to each other while she was still with Lucas.

Jake- Has always loved Peyton, and finally got his chance 8 months ago when her and Luke split. He regrets Nikki, but loves Jenny with all of his heart. He gets her during the week and Nikki gets her during the weekend. Something he thinks the judge made the right call with.

Rachel- Came into the group her sophomore year after transferring. She instantly had a tift with Brooke but that soon changed and they became best friends. Not being one for relationships, she's had a strict friends with benefits with Chase for the past year. Although everyone else just says they are together.

Chase- Gets along with the guys okay, but is mostly in the group because he hooks up with Rachel. They respect him though because he is an athlete, being the captain of the soccer team.

Bevin and Skills- Together for 3 years, they are the groups most stable couple. Their sense of direction and general knowledge is questionable though.

Michael: 'Mike' age 27. Head of his group of friends. Owns the gas station next to his 89 year old grandmother's campground.

Troy: Mike's brother, the sheriff of the town Pickerington, North Carolina where they live 4 hours out of Tree Hill.

Johnny: Age 23, Mike's right hand man.

Timmy: Age 17 Pickerington's Basketball Captain.

Hank- Age 17, Timmy's teammate, brought Timmy into group after meeting Johnny at a parole meeting.

…Together the four men like to feed off young girls traveling. Sometimes using masks, sometimes not even hiding their identities, the group tracks down foreign license plates that stop at Mike's gas station either letting them go or giving them car trouble and attacking them. Beaten and abused as kids all four have a rough history and take it out on anyone who acts better then them.

June 25th 2011.

Michael kissed the soft skin of the tan girl underneath him. She had a tattoo on her left him and he liked the chain that hung from her belly ring. He ran his tongue over the ring before moving his hand from her thong to the ring. He ripped the piercing out causing a small screech from the blonde haired girl, barely audible due to the tape covering her mouth.

He laughed as he watched her attempts to squirm away from him.

"Stay still!" He grunted before ripping her underwear and plunging into her.

As he grinded his hips, he looked to his left. On the floor, near the bed he had tied the "Blonde bimbo" he had called dibs on earlier, was his best friend Johnny.

Johnny was having his way with the girls friend, some Red head tramp whose Mercedes let him know she needed to be taught a lesson, and he knew Johnny would teach her a good one. He never was one to be gentle.

This had become their life. It wasn't what he thought he'd be doing when he was a young boy, but he'd come to enjoy it. He thrived off making people pay for their acts of foolishness. He put his hand around her neck and touched the tiffany's necklace before yanking it off her.

'Rich bitch' he thought, tossing the necklace aside as he continued to have his way with her.

He and his friends had come to hate anyone who flashed money in their faces, and it wasn't until recently that they started to do anything about it. Abused as a child, he had never known what being wealthy was.

He had always envied those who had always envied those who had a good life wanting that to be him so badly, but that all changed.

Now he couldn't stand anyone who thought they were better than him.

It all started last summer when three girls pulled up at his gas station late one night asking for him to look under the hood of their Lexus.

He didn't run a full service gas station and told them that it wasn't his job to do that, but if they wanted their car to be looked at they could go to the local auto repair store.

The one girl was not happy, what was her name? Ashley? Michael had forgot, but finally had had enough with them screaming about how their dad's wouldn't be happy with him that he finally agreed to look under the hood.

He looked at Johnny for a second. Johnny was checking out the Brunette's ass who had bent over to open the hook up for him. When Mike and Johnny made eye contact they both knew what they were going to do. With a simple tug Michael unhooked the fan belt and told the girls they were all set.

He and Johnny then got in their car and followed them down the street where their car eventually broke down. Michael said he was on his way home and would give them a ride. They declined, but Johnny had already taken out his gun and shot one of the three. Mike and Johnny went on to rape the other two girls before shooting them both in the head. They set up a burial ground and drove the girls car four hours out and torched it in a deserted field.

That was the first of many murders he and his friend had done in the past year. They even added two more to their twisted group.

"Hank, the two upstairs are done…take them to the graves, and don't leave any trace this time. I'm not dealing with cops again. Grandma Anne may be half blind but she'll know when people check in and out of her campsite. If you wanted those girls get them either before they check in or after they check out that way we aren't questioned again!" Mike ranted before grabbing the keys to the girls car and walking out of their two story wooded cabin off the main road.

He climbed into the Porshe Cayan and headed off down a grass patch. It was a five-minute drive to an abandoned stable. He parked the car and got out walking over to the big barn doors and unlocking the chains.

He opened the doors before walking inside. He parked the car inside and locked it before walking out of the stable. He took his key out and relocked the stable doors that hid over 20 cars.

This was his adrenaline rush. It was fun. It was a game, and he always won. His older brother Troy thought the world of him and would never see him as a bad guy. It helped that he had taken the high road of the family and become sheriff. He had questioned Mike a few times but always thought he was just a drug dealer, nothing harmful.

Ignorance is bliss, Mike thought as he walked back to the house.

"Oh good dominoes is here," he called out to the others as he saw the pizza man pull up, all his previous activities gone from his mind as if it were a regular occurrence in his day.

"So you guys are all booked too?" Brooked frowned crossing yet another camping place off her list. "No…no it's okay we don't want another weekend. Thanks though, okay. Bye." She let out a sigh as she hung up the phone.

"Rachel this sucks, every campground is booked for the Fourth. What now?" She asked walking from the kitchen into the living room where Rachel was currently lounging on the couch painting her toenails.

Rachel stuck her bottom lip out "Oh darn I was really looking forward to being eaten alive and sleeping on rocks," she said sarcastically.

Brooke threw a pillow at her and sat down as well grabbing the nail polish from her best friend. "Rachel shut up you know you want to go…I just wish we had a place to stay. I'll call tutor girl and make her find a place. She probably knows of more places that don't have a five star rating," she said in all seriousness before going back into the kitchen to call her friend. Rachel just shook her head and went back to painting her nails. Once her friend put her mind to something their was no stopping her. Although Rachel would admit, she did secretly want to go.

Fourth of July was only a week away and Brooke was determined to spend it with all her friends. Having a great time, drinking lots of booze, and spending as much time with Luke as possible.

Hopefully Haley would come through.
