Fic: Another One (The Initiation of Sarah [2006])
For this year’s round of Be the First, I elected to write a fic about The Initiation of Sarah, the one from 2006. I have put some information about this movie in the AO3 notes from this fic, but I’ll summarize it here as well. First off, this version of The Initiation of Sarah is a remake of sorts. Both movies deal with warring sororities and, plot-wise, are similar. The main difference is that the 1978 movie gives Sarah telekinetic powers, and the 2006 version makes her a witch. (Well, actually, the 2006 version makes every sorority girl a witch.)
The 2006 movie was a made-for-TV movie commissioned for ABC Family (now Freeform). The movie was big among Summer Glau fans in the past, and horror fans probably noticed Jennifer Tilly in the movie as well. The movie might be better known now for also featuring Tessa Thompson well before a lot of people knew her (mostly) from MCU movies.
Speaking of, that’s where my story starts. Sarah and her “good” sorority stop Esme’s (Thompson) “evil” sorority from sacrificing her sister, ending the “evil” sorority in the process. But Esme lives; she’s the only survivor of her sorority. It’s implied that she might do something in the future against the “good” sorority. (We’ll never know because no sequel was ordered after this remake came out.) My fic has an idea of what could’ve happened to Esme at the end.
As for availability, apparently you can rent (but not buy) this from iTunes, and the movie is on YouTube. Even then, the movie is hard to watch. There’s a full length video that mutes the very end of the movie (because of T. Rex’s “Children of the Revolution”), and there’s one in parts-with the end not muted, but also without the third part. C'est la vie, I guess.
With that said, here is the fic:

Yes, nearly 2000 words on a terrible TV movie. I had feelings about it, okay?
