"Richie? Mike? Eddie?" Beverly asked, Richie jumping and yelping.
"Stop scaring mee!" Richie complained, dragging out the 'e' to be more dramatic.
"Why did we have to find him?" Stanley asked, pointing to Richie.
"Well why don't you shut the fuck up and maybe we'd be getting through this door already, Stan," Richie scolded back.
"Guys, stop. Let's go," Beverly sighed.
Stanley and Richie shot each other dirty looks before all the six of them walked into the mystery door.
Laughter echoed through the walls, causing few of them to jump at the sound.
"Welcome to Pennywise's Maze! Try your best to survive!" Another laugh rippled through the air once again, and they huffed.
"Where're the rules?" Stanley asked, looking around.
"Uhh," Eddie said, looking up. "Look." He pointed to the sky, and everyone followed his arm's direction.
"Oh," Ben mumbled.
The paper floated down, landing on the ground a bit far away from them. They walked over to it and Beverly picked it up.
She cleared her throat. "Okay, there's only two, easy?"
"Oh, alright," Mike said.
"'The Maze; 1. Find the door in one of the pathways, 2. Stop moving when the music stops.' I wonder what would happen if we moved?" Beverly read.
"Don't put that to test," Stanley demanded. "We need to find Bill, also."
"Yeah, where is he?" Eddie turned to the three that joined.
"We're not sure. We thought he was put with you and Richie?" Beverly said, pointing an open hand at the two.
"Not the we know of," Richie said and turned to Eddie. "He was the one that woke me up so I wouldn't know."
Beverly sighed. "Maybe we'll find him as we did each other. For now, we gotta get going."
"Whatever," Stanley mumbled and they set off to enter the maze.
It was eerie, the walls tight as well as red. It was hard to really even see since it was so dark, but the floor was white, ceiling blue, walls red.
Loud music began to play and they took deep breaths, walking in. "Can we talk?" Ben asked the group, but no one knew the answer.
The music stopped and they froze, hearing each other's breath. Everyone broke into a cold sweat, panting of being so terrified. Once the music started, they all shuddered.
"I feel like having a panic attack," Richie mumbled to himself, trying to laugh and catch his breath. Eddie heard, and held onto his hand, squeezing it. Richie squeezed back, taking deep breaths as he remembered.
On the third round of the music coming to a stop, everyone was hopeful.
"Shit," Stanley said from behind.
"What?" Beverly whispered.
A scream from behind was heard as the floors opened and Stanley fell through.
"Stanley?!" Eddie called from in front.
"He just fell through the floor.." Ben mumbled.
"What..?!" Beverly panicked.
The floor closed again and the music began to play. Beverly, Mike, Eddie and Richie turned around to face Stanley and Ben, Stanley who was no longer there.
