An Urgent Need for Ruin (Short Story)
Summary
Toni resides in superstitious but homey small-town Louisiana. A film-fest hosted by would-be directors in her high school seems like a harmless night, but you'd be surprised what one party can change.
(This is based, word-for-word, off a nightmare I had through Toni's eyes. Though not technically a fan fiction, it contained Frank and had a huge impact on me because of just how real it still feels. So I thought I'd post it for your viewing enjoyment.)

Characters
Francis "Frank" Gauthier
He's not a stare-at-you-across-the-cafeteria-like-I-want-to-run-you-over-with-a-bus kind of guy, but there's certainly something mysterious about Frank. He's not a talker, but when he does talk he's definitely not open. And there's definitely something grim and crucial on his mind 90% of the time.
Toni Devereaux
A small-town girl with dark blonde hair and chesnut eyes. She'd prefer the wild to civilization any day, especially compared to a teenager-stuffed den.

Just know that a whole ton of the novel will be different from the short story.
The short story is based off my nightmare word-for-word, but the novel I made my own. Their personalities and backgrounds are way different. For example, Toni decided to make herself a mute. XP
