Of course, Eddie's mother was horrified when the group turned up at her house. However, no matter how many times Bill tried to explain that they had been attacked, she would not hear it, instead blaming the group for getting her son hurt. When she had turned her attention to Beverly, Kit tried to stand up for her, but whatever words she had planned to say could not leave her mouth. She thought she could taste blood on her tongue.
Leaning against Stan, Kit and the group stepped into the street, watching as Eddie and his mother drove away from them. Not missing a beat Bill turned towards the group, eyes still frantic from what had occured before.
"I saw the well. W-w-w-w-we know where It is, and next time we'll be better prepared-" He began before being interrupted.
"No!" Stan yelled from next to Kit. "No next time, Bill. You're insane."
"Why? We all know nobody else is going to do anything," Beverly argued, and while Kit agreed with the younger girl on that point, at that moment in time she really did not care. All that matter to her was all of them surviving, of her brother not getting hurt.
"Eddie was nearly killed and look at this motherfucker, he's leaking hamburger helper!" Richie shouted, before turning towards Kit. "And look at my sister! Look! She can barely stand, and her clothes are all bloody and her arm - Jesus, It nearly ate my sister!"
"We can't pretend it's going to go away. Ben, you said yourself it comes back every 27 years," Beverly stated, turning her gaze towards Ben who seemed equally as shaken as Richie and Stan.
"Fine! I'll be 40 and far away from here," He replied. "I thought you said you wanted to get out of this town too."
"Because I want to run towards something, not away," Beverly told him.
"I'm sorry but who invited Molly Ringwald into the group?" Richie snapped.
"Careful," Kit mumbled, still feeling a little light headed. Although her bleeding had stopped, she knew that she had lost a decent enough of blood to make the world spin before her eyes. However, she wasn't going to let Richie run his mouth too much if she had anything to do with it. Deep down she knew that Beverly was right, but everytime she blinked she could see It, and Him, and all of it horrified her.
"I'm just saying, let's face facts, real world. Georgie is dead, stop trying to get us killed too," Richie yelled, making to walk past Bill who stepped in front of him. Kit tried to stand up on her own without needing Stan as a crutch, taking one step forward. It worked a little, but Stan was still cautious, his hands steadying her whenever she swayed as she tried to walk straight.
"Richie, don't say that-" Kit said, just as Bill said, "Georgie's not dead." However, her brother ignored both of them, continuing to speak.
"You couldn't save him but you could still save yourself."
"No! T-t-t-take it back, you're scared and we all are but take it back!" Bill snapped before shoving Richie who immediatly shoved him back. Before anyone could do anything Bill had Richie by the collar of his shirt, punching him hard enough to make him fall onto the ground.
"Bill!" Beverly cried, while Kit herself shouted, "What the fuck?!" She watched as Stan and Mike tried to help him up. However, he was pissed now, and he fought against the pair, shouting.
"You're such a loser! You're a bunch of losers, get us all killed while trying to catch a clown!" he said quickly while Bill started trying to get another hit in, Ben having to hold him back. With a wince Kit stood between Richie and Bill. This seemed to help a little, with both boys hesitant to push too hard in case they ended up knocking into Kit and injuring her arm further.
