WAR AND PEACE
( CHAPTER TEN )

"We got-gotta go to my house" Bill said and they went to the racks.

"Wait guys... I have to find James and tell him to go home"

"C-c'mon Jen, this is big, we have to do this n-now" Eddie paused "He knows the way home right?"

"Yeah, but-"

"We have to go" he said before hoping on his bike like the others. Jennifer sighed and did the same before riding to the Denbrough's.

Once there, they settled Mr. Denbrough's projector and maps of the sewers from Derry in the garage. They also projected some of Ben's pictures.

They came to the conclusion that it lives in the house on Neibolt st. because all sewers somehow had a way to the house.

Eddie started breathing heavily, Jennifer tried to calm him down but he pushed her hand away and stood up, throwing the maps to the ground.

"Pu-put tha-that ba-b-b-back"

"Uh uh" Eddie shaked his head "Look I'm not doing this, it's summer, we should be having fun not doing this. Chasing a killer clown. Pff"

"E-eddie just put it back and come sit down"

"L-look this... we shouldn't be doing this. I-I'm having a fucking asthma attack, I c-can't deal with your sh-shit, o-ok?"

"Just calm down"

Eddie yelled at Stan, definetely not going to calm down "I-I'm not calming dow-!"

Flick.

He was cut by the sound of the projector changing the image. Eddie turned around and everyone stared at the wall starting to question what just happened while Mike looked if it had something wrong and then again-

Flick.

The image change again. To a vacation picture of the Denbroughs.

Flick.

Bill and Georgie.

Flick.

Their parents.

Flick.

Bill and his dad fishing.

Flick.

A family picture of the Denbroughs, all dressed in suits and dress.

Flick.

The image zoomed a little.

Flick. Flick.

They looked at each other.

"Just turned it off" Beverly said thinking the projector had a regular problem.

Flick.

They looked up to the wall again. The projector changed faster as Mike and Bill tried to stop it. The image of the Denbroughs zoomed in Georgie's happy face with every flick.

Then it started moving up to Mrs. Denbrough's face. The image started to move as if it went back to the day in the picture. A windy day. Mrs. Denbrough's hair flew all over her face covering her features but then... it changed into something else.

The dirty organe red hair revealed the clown's horrible smiley face.

"What the fuck is that!?"

"Turn it off!"

"What the fuck!"

The garage was filled with 8 kids screaming and backing up to one wall, scared to move or do anything.

Bill walked back, his mouth wide open. Next to him was a screaming Beverly and a scared Mike. Ben fell back to fall near Bill's and Mike's feet, Richie and Eddie walked back together, screaming at each other, Jennifer and Stan hugged so tightly they could had died earlier, they both will start to cry in any minute.

Flick. Flick. Flick. Flick. Flick. Flick. Flick.

The clown's smile became wider and wider and then- Mike reacted. He kicked the projector making it fall to the ground with the pictures splattered everywhere. The picture was the same but with no Denbroughs nor clown.

An deep, ear-piercing scream was what the losers heard when a 3D clown came out the projection. Literally.

They backed to the nearest wall after they thought running wasn't an option.

The clown went after the screaming, amd now crying, Beverly. Just in time, Mike and Ben opened the door of the garage, the clown gave a final scream before dissappearing into the air.

Beverly's body trembled as she stood up, wiping her tears away. She went and thanked Ben... and then hugged Bill.

Jen and Eddie, besides Beverly, were the ones that screamed the most and now had to catch their breathe. Jennifer leaned agaisnt a wall, hand on her chest, before Stan came to help her.

"Jennifer look at me, ok? Do the same I do. On one, two..." he said trying to help her. She let out a deep breathe after him "G-good, again" They did that 5 times before they hugged.

Bill walked outside the garage where everyone could see him and said "Nah-now tha-that w-we no-know whe-where i-it li-ves. W-we sh-sh-should..."

"N-no Bill! It's summer, we're supposed to be having f-fun!" Stan said stepping forward.

"E-e-if y-you sa-say suh-suh-mmer one more f-f-fucking tie-time..." Bill said before taking a deep breathe "I-I'm do-doing sah-sah-something ab-bout i-it" he said before grabbing his bike and walking to the street.

"Bill..." Said Beverly and looked at her friends. She rolled her eyes internally "Wait!" She grabbed her bike and rode to his side as the other followed.
