Tony's Plan

Tony was never regarded as a monster. 1983. "Hi there Tony, how's things?", said a mysterious voice. There was no reply. Tony, your average worker, did what he was supposed to do. Never more, never less. No one really knew what he was actually like. Everyone that knew him, was either scared to speak up or dead.

It's 1982 and Tony Greenly has a happy family and a great job. What more could he want? A lot more, is the answer. He wanted the satisfaction of murdering everyone that did him wrong. Fast forward a year, it's 13th June 1983: the day of the massacre. Some say he was possessed by a vengeful spirit but in reality he WAS the vengeful spirit. "Can everyone in the building come to the meeting room asap?" Tony said on the tannoy. That was the last thing heard out of that building before the distant screams of the employees. I cannot legally go into much detail of how he murdered them...Tony was never regarded as a monster.

1991. The Sunnyvale tragedy. This was Tony's last massacre, however, it was the worst. Since 1984, Tony and his family moved to Sunnyvale, which was widely regarded as the safest place in USA. Well...that was unlike Tony, wasn't it? Known as the Sunnyvale devil, Tony was the captain of a local football team. Ironically, they were known as the Sunnyvale devils. He is what's called a 'successful psychopath', with an even better and seemingly normal life in the USA.

January 30th 1991. Exactly 22 days before the massacre. The Sunnyvale devils lost their first game in 26 years and Tony had torn his achiles, sparking the psychopathic and sadistic murders. February 21st 1991. 22 people died that day. Majority of who played football for the opposing team. Tony found an old halloween mask to hide his face and went on his killing spree. It was suspected that he had made a deal with the devil. Tony was a monster.
