Y/n's POV
We finally made it to Derrys Festival.
Richie and I were stealing band instruments from the marching band.
He took a Tuba and I took some cymbals.
I love doing little dumb stuff with him. None of the others would want to, they think it's childish. Well, it is but it's fun.
He was playing the Tuba when the Tuba player came and tried to take it back. Richie wouldn't let go until eventually the man yanked it from his grasp.
Richie threw his hands up in the air. "What the fuck dude?"
"HA! Sucks to suck!" I said. Just then the symbolist snatched one of the cymbals from me.
"Oh come on!" I said handing her the other one.
I waved for Richie to follow me as I walked back over to my friends.
"What are you guys talking about?" Eddie asked coming around the corner with two ice creams handing one to Richie.
I wanted one :(
"What they always talk about." Richie said licking his ice cream then letting me lick it.
Ben ignored Richie and went on with whatever they were talking about. "I actually think I will end. For a little while at least."
"What do you mean?" Bev asked.
"So I was going over all my Derry research...and I charted out all the big events...The Ironworks explosion in 1908, the Bradley Gang in '35, and the Black Spot in '62, and now kids being...I realised this all this stuff seems to happen.." Ben trailed off.
Oh my god.
"Every 27 years." Bill and 1 said at the same time, looking at each other.
•••
We found a bench to sit at to unravel everything we just found out.
"So let me get this straight. IT comes out from...wherever to eat kids for, like, a year? And then what? IT just goes back into hibernation?" Eddie asked handing me his half finished ice cream.
"Maybe it's like...what do you call it?, cicadas! You know, the bugs that come out once every 17 years." Stan said to the group.
Mike looked down before he began to speak.
"My grandfather thinks this town is cursed. He says that, all the bad things that happen in this town are because of one thing. An evil thing that feeds off the people of Derry."
No way.
I saw something different than them.
I shook my head. "But it can't be one thing, we all saw something different."
Mike looked up giving his full attention to me. "Maybe, or maybe it knows what scares us most and that's what we see."
My heart was pounding. This was the scariest thing I've heard in all my years of living.
