The clown

4

I made it home and gave my mom the dog treats. Ma dog treats are on the table I yell then the house phone rings. Hello? I say picking it up. It's got Beverley I hear bill say. Shit, um where do I meet you at I say. We are all gonna bike to the house where it was last at and meet you there ok? Bill says. I hang up then grab my bike telling my mom I was gonna go hang out with bill and my friends.

•The house•

I make it there and see everyone waiting for me. Let's go bill says as we all walk towards the house. Guys spikes bill says as he starts to make one. Eddie gets his back that has all his pills and throws them. Why'd you do that I say. There bullshit he says to me.

We all go inside but stop because Stanley didn't come in. Stan we all have to go Beverley was right, if we split up like last time that clown will get us one by one, but if we stick together all of us we'll win bill says. I go back and grab Stanley by his arm. It's ok we all have each other I say to him. He eventually walks in and I stay right beside him to calm him down.

We all continue to walk to the basement where the well is. Hey Eddie you got a quarter? Richie says. I wouldn't wanna make a wish in that fucking thing Eddie says as we all look down the well. How are we supposed to get down there? Mike says. Bill ends up finding a rope and we all help tie it and wrap it around something secure.

We all start going down one after the other and Mike was the only one we waited for. As well all gather our stuff we hear a loud bang and Mike scream in pain. Mike we all yell looking up to see if he was there. Bowers Richie says. He had blood all over his face and then started to laugh while taking the rope and pulling it out of the well. Get the rope Eddie yells but we don't manage to. Leave him alone Richie yells at bowers. I should get up there bill says looking around. Are you insane? With what I say to him.

We all listen as we hear Mike and bowers fighting then bowers falls down the well. Holy shit! Mike Richie says. I'm okay Mike says. Guys where the fuck it Stanley I yell. Stan? Stanley we all yell going out if the hole we were in. We all start going through the tunnels to find Stanley. Then we hear him yell. We open tis door and see some weird disfigured girl eat his face. What the hell richie says. The thing backs away from Stanley and goes into another area thne peaks it's head back out only to see the clown. Oh shit everyone says freaked out.

Stanley Eddie yells as we all run to him and he starts screaming. You're not my friends you made me go into neibolt y'all left me he cries out. Stanley we are here for you I say wrapping my arms around him. As everyone joins in and calms him down. Bill! Bill! Eddie yells as we all get up to go find bill.

We all go through the tunnels and find bill. And Beverley floating in the air and she seemed lifeless. Oh my god Beverley I say looking up at her body. How is she in the air Richie says. Guys are those? The missing kids Eddie says. I look in another direction and see multiple bodies floating in the air.

Mike holds Ben up as he grabs bev and brings her down. Stay here im gonna go find bill he can't be far I say going to find bill. No may dont the others yell.

I go around the area and see bill standing there. Georgie? He says. I look to where he's looking and see georgie. He's missing an arm and has a paper bait in his hand looking frightened. What took you so long? Georgie says coming closer. I-I-I was looking for you this h-hole time bill says.

Was she fast? Bill asks georgie about his boat. I couldn't keep up with it georgie says. Take me home Billy georgie says and the rest of the guys come with bev who is alive. I mean go home georgie says while he and bill stray crying.

I miss you I wanna be with mom and dad he says. I want more than anything for you to be home with mom and dad I miss you so much bill says going closer to georgie. I love you Billy georgie says then looks at me. I missed you may georgie says looking at me. You and Billy have been friends since forever and you would always buy me candy he says to me making me cry. I miss you too Georgie I say going closer to him and squatting down to his height. I promise that me and bill will stay friends no matter what okay I say to him. Please don't leave Billy ever georgie says. I won't I say crying even harder. I love you georgie bill says pulling the gun thing that Mike had to Georgie's head. But you are not georgie bill says then fires it causing georgie to collapse to the floor.

Then Georgie's body starts to shake and transform into the clown. Kill it bill kill it eddie screams and everyone starts cursing. It's not loaded I hear Mike say. Bill fires it and there was a hole in the clown but then it starts to roar and run at us. Bill watch out Richie yells as the clown goes for bill but bill blocks it's teeth from bitting him.

We all start to attack the clown as it throws us off if it holding bill. LET HIM GO I yell to the clown. No, I'll take him. I'll take all of you and I'll feast on your flesh as I feed on your fear or, you'll just leave us be and I will take him and only him then I will have my long rest the clown says. Leave bill gasps out. I'm the one who dragged you all into this I'm so sorry bill stutters out. Go bill says. Guy we can't bev says. I told you bill, I fucking told you I don't wanna die, it's your fault. You punched me in the face, you made me walk through shitty water, you brought me to a fucking crack house and now I'm gonna have to kill this fucking clown Richie says while grabbing a bat.

Welcome to the losers club asshole Richie says as he hits the clown. I grab a golf club that I found and charge at the clown also. Eat shit you bitch I say as I hit the clown. Then everyone joins in. Beat his ass I yell as we all attack. The clown falls to the floor and throws up on Eddie. Bev takes her weapon and stabs the clown right down its throat.

The clown falls back and starts to laugh. That's why you didn't kill Beverley cause she wasn't afraid and we aren't either, not anymore. Now you're the one who's afraid because you're going to starve bill says. Then the clown goes down this hole but we can still see half of it as it starts saying some poem that bill says. Eddie hands over a pipe to bill as he was gonna hit the clown but the clown falls down more. Then it's face starts to break off and it's final words were fear then he fellow down the hole completely.

I know what I'm doing for my summer experience essay Richie says. Guys guys Eddie says as we look up. The kids are floating down he says. Bill sees Georgie's rain coat and holds it while crying. We all go to him and hug in for a while.

^Month later^

We all gathered at this beautiful area near the water and high grass. Bev starts talking about what it was like in that trance she was in. It was like I was dead she says. I saw us, all of us together back in the cistern,but we were older like our parents ages. What were we doing there bill asks. I just remember how it felt, how scared we were Beverley says.

Bill grabs some sharp piece of glass off the ground and says swear if it isn't dead, if it ever comes back, we'll come back too. We all stand up and bill goes around cutting one of our hands when he finishes we all hold hands. Then we all start leave one by one.

Bye guys I say as I leave. Wait may eddie says coming to me. I have that red marker still he says. Oh yeah I'm let me see your cast I say. I grab the marker and write a V over the S in loser and turned it into lover.There, you are a lover now I say giving him a smile. Before you go there's something I wanna do he says. What is it- I say. He then smashes his lips onto mine while placing his hand on my cheek. I kiss him back and we both pull away to catch our breath. Wow is say as I look at him. I like you may and I have for a while now, so...... will you go out with me? He asks. No I don't date losers I say. Then he frowns. Just kidding I say hugging him. Then we head back home.
