A Mate's Rebirth

*Chapter 16: Back to Neibolt*

Mike is feeding Nadia with a bottle. He had heard from Bill that Pennywise killed Dean and kidnapped Georgia to use her as bait. Before the Losers Club could leave the house, Belle came in.

"Belle?" Eddie wondered.

"What're you doing here? I thought you're going to meet us at the Neibolt House." Beverly said. Belle came over to Mike to see her daughter feeding off a bottle. She gave Nadia a kiss on a head.

"One of you has to stay with Nadia." She said. "I can't let Pennywise have her."

"I'll stay." Eddie said, raising his hand.

"No. We need you, Eds." Richie said.

"Belle, we need each other for the ritual." Mike said as he hands Nadia over to her. "Valerie could stay with Nadia." Jacob, Bill, Georgie, and Valerie walked in the house. Belle turned around to face Valerie. She asked her to stay with Nadia to keep her safe.

"But I'm going with you. My daughter needs me-" Valerie was cut off when Georgie placed his hand on her shoulder.

"No. You have to stay. You have no idea how dangerous Pennywise is." He told her. "Stay with a baby. We'll get our kid back. I promise." Georgie said.

"George, no. You can't fight like this." Valerie said. "I'll come with you."

"No. Somebody has to stay with Nadia." Belle said with a stern look. "One of you will go, one of you will stay." Georgie and Valerie thought about it. They both want to go after their daughter, but it had to be one of them.

"I'm going." Georgie said. "Val, you stay. I want to kill the clown for ruining my childhood. He can't have my kid." Valerie gave him a hug, and a kiss on the lips. She touches his face.

"Be safe." Valerie said. "Bring her back." Georgie smiled a little and nodded. Belle went upstairs with her baby to put her to sleep before she leaves.

Under the Neibolt House, Georgia sat in the center of the crash meteor, shaking. Pennywise brought her down here instead of being in the Neibolt House. This is the underground cavern where IT arrived on Earth. Georgia couldn't escape anyhow. She prayed that her father would come and rescue her. The girl hugs her legs, crying to herself. Her hair is a mess. Blood all over her clothes.

"Aww. No need for tears, Georgia." A voice spoke. Georgia looked up to see Pennywise standing across from her with a smile. "That'll add too much salt."

"...Why?" Georgia asked shakenly. The clown tilts his head at her in wonder. "Why did you kill Dean?"

"To feed." Pennywise replied. "Oh, you know nothing about me. Your daddy never told you or your mommy. I'm Georgie's worst nightmare." Georgia backed away a bit as the clown approached. "I feed on children's fear. Even Laurie Anne's." Georgia choked a gasp.

"Y-you killed Laurie Anne?!"

"She was tasty. But I think you will taste even better!" Pennywise teased with a smirk. Georgia whimpered, closing her eyes, more tears fall from her eyes. Pennywise inhales on her scent. "Ahhh... Beautiful fear."

"Don't kill me..." Georgia begged. "Please."

"Silly girl. Your time will come. But it won't be fun without my former mate. She will watch you die. Along with your daddy." Pennywise giggled. Georgia could hear the bells in his suit jingle as he moves. "Oh, I could imagine the look on Georgie's face when sees you die." The clown taunted. Georgia cried again, covering her face in her knees. She doesn't deserve this. The clown ate her friends, and she is next.

"Please, no." She choked. The clown opened his mouth, and his tongue is on Georgia's face to taste her. The girl trembles in disgust, keeping her eyes shut. Pennywise brought his tongue back in his mouth and smirked.
