A/N: I couldn't really remember what happened after Pennywise fell in that abyss sewer hole, so I kinda made it up, hope you guys don't mind.

     Richie smacked It across the face with the bat, making it go over to the others. Mike stepped up with the pole keeping a tight grip on it. Right as Mike went to hit it, arms came out of it's mouth, grabbing onto the pole to stop him. Mike nearly froze hearing his mother and father screaming his name. Stepping up, Stan grabbed a pipe from the ground and sliced the arms. It turned to Stan right at Richie hit it with the bat again. It's head turned into the Flute Lady, keeping it's gaze on Stan. Stan felt the bite marks on his face start to ache a bit. It charged at Stan but got smacked across the face by the pipe he was holding. Mike to hit it again, but It turned to the side as it's arms started to change into spiked arms of an insect(?). Mike stumbled to the ground and landed on his back. He was quick to roll out of the way as It started to strike the ground with it's arms while laughing a bit.

      Right as it nearly got Mike, it was stabbed in the back with a spiked pole by Ben. The spiked insect arms shook back into it's original arms as It stood with blood floating up from it's chest. It turned it's head 180° to look at Ben, then turned it's head into the head of a mummy, with bandages coming out from the back of it's head, sticking onto the back of Ben's head to pull him closer.

      Bill dropped the flashlight and picked up the chains from the ground, running over and breaking the bandages with them. He whipped It with the chains, making It stumble onto its knees. One by one, Bill, Richie, and Stan kept hitting It. (Y/n) joined in, trying to help the best she could by hitting it with a spiked pole as well. (Y/n) tensed even more feeling an all too familiar tendril wrap around her ankle. It pulled at her ankle making her fall over. It started dragging her away. She shrieked and tried grabbing onto anything from the ground that would stop it. Her eyes widened seeing it was dragging her to the sewer water. Right as she closed her eyes and excepted her fate, someone ran up and broke her free from the tendril. (Y/n) opened her eyes looking at who saved her.

     "It's ok.." Beverly said pulling her to her feet. They hurried back to the others, Beverly making sure that (Y/n) didn't leave her sight. (Y/n) was tense and shaken up watching Bill, Mike, and Stan continue hitting It. Eddie glanced over at her then looked back at It as It got on all fours coughing and gagging. Eddie was standing right in path, feeling grossed out but also kinda scared. He felt sick to his stomach seeing it's head turn into the Leper. (Y/n) turned away gagging, just as the Leper threw up black goop on Eddie. Eddie stood straight up, spitting out the goo that got in his mouth, gagging and wiping his eyes and mouth. The other Losers looked at Eddie. Any pent up anger and frustration that Eddie felt before and was holding back was starting to resurface.

     "I'm going to kill you!" Eddie screamed running up then kicking it in the face, making It stumble to the side, his head changing into a man's. It slowly looked up at Beverly, who tensed while grabbing a pole, slowly walking up to It.

"Hey Bevvy~.. are you still my little girl-" Beverly let out a yell in frustration and shoved the pole down it's throat. It let out a strained and choking noise while patches of it's face turned back to Pennywise. Beverly let go of the pole and slowly stepped back, going by (Y/n). It spit out half of the pole.

"Shit.." (Y/n) muttered. It glanced around at all of them in.. fear? Yes. It was fear. The kids it was terrorizing most of the summer, they weren't scared anymore, well, at least not of it. It stumbled back, crawling away while the Losers followed, keeping their guard up. It stayed against the edges of a large hole. Bill stepped up, being in front of everyone.

"That's why you didn't kill Beverly... 'cause sh-shh-she wasn't afraid and we aren't either. Not anymore. Now you're the one who's afraid.. because you're gonna starve." Bill said glaring at It. It shook a bit while frowning at them. It noticed the hole behind it and flipped back, holding onto the edge.

"H-he thrusts his fists against the posts.. and still insists he sees the ghosts.." It rambled on. Stan looked at the pipe in his hands and gave it to Bill. Bill held onto the pipe and raised it ready to hit It. It dropped down a little farther, the top of it's head starting to crack. Bill watched as pieces of It's head started to break off and float up, defying all gravity. It muttered one word before falling into the dark abyss, 'Fear'. Bill ran up to the hole and rested the pipe on the ledge.

"It's over..?" (Y/n) asked looking at everyone. Beverly nodded going over to Bill. She tapped his shoulder and pulled him into a hug, which Bill happily returned.

"Well Jesus fuck.." Richie muttered pushing his glasses up. (Y/n) turned to Eddie who was wiping the goop off his face and groaning in disgust. Stan rubbed the bite marks on his face, talking quietly with Mike. Ben just watched Bill and Beverly with a sad expression. Richie saw Ben's expression and glanced over at Bill, "Hey love birds, maybe we should get out of his horror house."

"R-r-right.." Bill said pulling away from Beverly. Beverly nodded and pushed some hair behind her ear looking at the others.

"W-wait.. guys.." Eddie trailed off looking up. (Y/n) followed his gaze. The kids that were circling the garbage pile, were slowly lowering to the ground. "The kids are coming down.."

The whole group stepped out of the Well-House, still kinda shaken up. It was nearly sunset outside, casting an orange glow on everything.

"You know, that whole experience has really opened my eyes." Richie said picking up his bike.

"Oh really now?" Stan replied walking while holding his bike.

"No. Not at all." Richie scoffed. "We're all tired, I'm sure we just committed murder, and Eddie is covered in vomit." Richie gestured over to Eddie who was holding onto his bike handle and walking beside (Y/n). Eddie groaned at him. The whole group was walking into the town, keeping small conversation and joking around a little. Even though everything was fine now, there was still a slight tension in the air. It wasn't too noticeable, but everyone was just still a bit baffled. Bill stopped walking, looking at a window from a shop.

"Wow.. we look pretty bad." Mike chuckled looking at everyone's reflection. Eddie glanced over at (Y/n) then back to the window, but didn't say anything.

"Yea. We do." (Y/n) responded. She glanced at her cast and came to the realization that she'd be going home. Back with her dad and step-mom.. and Derek. She tensed and started walking again. "We should hurry it up before the curfew kicks in."

"Slow down, toots. With us killing that clown-"

"Well- it actually went back to its rest.." Ben interjected. Richie rolled his eyes and went over to (Y/n) placing a hand on her shoulder.

"Like I was saying, there's no need for the curfew anymore." Richie looked at the others. "I say we hold a celebration, we, a group of 8 losers from Derry, Maine, a shitty town, just killed the source of the child disappearances."

"Didn't it technically kill itself-?" Stan retorted. Richie shot him a 'shut the fuck up' look, making some of the group giggle.

"A celebration, sure." Beverly smirked glancing at the group around her. "Who's house."

Everyone glanced at each other then turned their heads towards Bill. Bill tensed at everyone's eyes on him.

"Wh-why my house?" Bill asked. Everyone could agree that Bill had the biggest house. Bill sighed when he got no response. "Fine. But not to-tonight." Bill said with a groan. The losers all smiled and they continued their walk.

Note: Omg I finally finished the draft that was sitting in here forever. I forgot about it honestly. But I will try to make updates quicker because the movie is almost over, so I shouldn't be holding this off.

Also, I run two accounts(which I made the mistake of doing because I tend to forget about the other when I'm in one account for so long).

My other account is JustFangurling and I'm writing two books on that account currently, although only one is published at the moment, so if I'm not updating this book I'll most likely be in that account.

But I want to thank you all who have been supporting this book, even if this book was on a hiatus for a while.

More updates to come ♡︎
