- I woke up to a lovely burst of sunlight through my curtains into my sealed eyelids. i got up and decided to change into a different pair of clothing. I picked out a plain white tee and a random pair of jeans i saw lying around. i went down the stairs into the kitchen which had a marble like texture on the counter tops. and a brick material for the wall. i decided to look into the pantry where i found a bag with bread inside of it. i took two loafs out of it then put the bag back. there was also a toaster on the counter top, i decided to take advantage of the opportunity and put the toast in the toaster so i could eat breakfast before i decided to go out too the sewer which they were currently at so i needed to hurry before they left.

As soon as i turned around to go check on the toast the toaster went off so i got up and strolled over there. i got a plate from where they were kept on top of the fridge. i stealthily but also a bit carelessly took the toast out of the toaster. i quickly ate it then i decided to get a few things before i went. once i got them i went over to the other countertop to get my keys that i left there last night due to being tired and curious of the place. i got a bag off of a hanger that was nailed onto a wall near the doorframe. i put some of my stuff in there then went out of the doorframe into the garage than got my bike. Than started to ride off to the sewers.

As soon as I got there I realized I got there just in time to over
hear all of them talking

"That's poison ivy, and that's poison ivy and that's poison ivy"

"Where? where's the poison ivy" Eddie said.

"Nowhere. Not every fucking plant is poison ivy Stanley"

I decided to run towards them in a slick but fast paste.

"Hey guys, I didn't notice you were going to be here" I said.

"Who the fuck are you?" Said eddie.

"I'm Alex I talked with Richie and bill yesterday."

"That's not fucking creepy that you snuck up on us" said Richie.

"Jesus sorry" I said while putting my hands up.

"Okay well I'm starting to get itchy now and I'm pretty sure this is not any good for my-"

"Do you use the same bathroom as your mother?" Asked Richie

"Sometimes, Yeah" replied eddie

"Than you probally have crabs"

"That's so not funny"

"Well can you guys stop bickering it's pissing me off" I said in a pissy tone.

Richie rolled his eyes. As we were walking in richie turned around

"Arn't you guys coming in?"

"Uh-uh it's grey water" eddie replied.

"What the hell is grey water?" Richie asked

"it's basically piss and shit. So I'm just telling you, you guys are splashing around in millions of gallons of Derry pee."

"So, Are you serious? What are you-" eddie continued.

"Doesn't smell like caca to me señor" Richie said in a Spanish accent.

"Ok I could smell that from here" eddie truthfully said

"It's probably your breath just walking back into your face" Richie said.

He scoffs than says "have you ever heard of a staph infection."

"Oh I'll show you s staff infection." Richie continued.

"This is so unsanitary. You're literally. this is literally like swimming inside of a toilet bowl right now. I mean have you ever heard of Listeria?" Eddie said.

Richie throws a dirty piece of clothing at eddie. He scoffs than rambles on until bill picks up. a shoe.

"Guys" bill says.

Bill holds up the shoe for everyone else to see.

"Thank you for making those two asswipes shut up" I say as richie and eddie look at me like there going to murder me. Than Stan starts to say

"Shit don't tell me that's.." Stan says than stops.

"No" bill says.

"Georgie wore galoshes" he continued on

"Whose sneakers is it?" Eddie than said

Bill takes a flashlight than shines it onto the shoe. I go over to bill to also see, He takes a closer look than sees that it has the name "Ripsom"

"It's Betty ripsoms" eddie comments.

"Oh shit, oh god oh fuck I don't like this" he continued on.

"How do you think Betty feels?" Richie says.

I look over at him and we lock eyes. Than he says

"Running around these tunnels with only one frickin shoe"

Richie jumps up while acting like he is running but only has one shoe. I roll my eyes. He chuckles. Than he looks around before just looking at bill.

"What If shes still here?" Says Stan.

Eddie and Richie look over to stan. Richie looks back than both bill me and Richie start to go deeper into the sewers.

"Eddie come on." Richie says

"My mom will have an aneurysm if she finds out we're playing down here I'm serious" says eddie.

"Bill" eddie says.

Bill turns back to face Eddie. Than bill says.

"If... if I were Betty ripsom, I would want us to find me"

"Georgie too" bill continued.

"What if I don't want to find them" eddie says.

Bill. Richie and I look back at eddie, than he says

"I mean no offense. Bill. But I don't want to end up like g-" he says but than doesnt finish his sentence.

"I don't want to go missing either" he than continues.

"He has a point" Stan adds. Bill looks back at them then says "you too?"

"It's summer, we're supposed to be having fun." Stan says Richie looks at bill. "This isn't fun this is scary and disgusting" Stan continues.

He gasps than jumps a little than look over to see a random kid fall down some water.

The kid tries to get up but fails miserably and falls down again.

All of us come out of the sewer than Richie says.

"Holy shit what happened to you?" He says looking at the kid. I look a bit closer than realize that it's Ben.
