"Who are you, and why did you crawl out of the sewer?" one of the boys asked. Angrily, he walked towards Stan and slapped Stan's hand off the boy's shoulder.

"I'm Stan, and as for the sewer thing...I don't want to explain." Stan answered.

"You were there with me." the boy spoke up, gaining everyone's attention. "In the Upside Down."

"The toxic land?" Stan asked. "Is that what you call it?"

"Yes." the other boy answered. Then, "You can see it?"

"Yeah, I've been having these visions all summer," Stan said, looking at each of the boys, and the girl, more closely. The one asking him all the questions looked like Richie, almost like he had a twin. One of the other boys had curly hair and was wearing a red white and blue baseball cap. The one on curly hair's right was black, with a camouflage bandana tied around his head. The girl was a redhead, like Bev, and was wearing a red jacket. They all had looks of confusion on their face.

"Will, you haven't told us about this." Richie's twin said, obvious concern in his voice. "What's been going on?"

"I don't wanna talk about it." the small boy-

Will, Stanly. His name is Will.

Will said, looking down at his shoes in discomfort and fear.

Fear. IT is still chasing them. Fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK!

"What's wrong Stan?" Curly Hair asked. Stan just noticed that he had some form of lisp. "Who's them and what's chasing them?"

"N-nothing." Stan stuttered out.

"Riiight." The boy with the bandana says, dragging the word out, obviously not believing Stan.

"Come on, we're going to my house to talk about this." Richie's twin ordered, walking away towards one of the houses. Everyone else, including Stan, started walking after him. "Richie" turned around and looked towards the girl. "You're not allowed. Party members only."

"Oh and what?" she pointed towards Stan, suddenly getting defensive, "He's now a party member?"

"Come on Mike," Bandana said, grabbing his friends arm trying to reason with him.

"She's not a party member. He is honorary, at least until we figure out what's going on." Mike defended.

Curly hair looked back towards the girl, "Sorry Max." he pouted.

"Whatever," Max said, as she turned on her heel and left, walking down the towards the road away from the cul-de-sac.

Mike started walking towards one of the houses again, and walks right up to the door and open it, walking in. Everyone else follows as he walks towards a door in the house leading down to the basement. They all walk down the stairs, whereas Stan hesitates. He looked down into the room and the stairs, suddenly remembering what Bill had told him before about his basement. He takes a step back, gulping.

Curly Hair looks back towards him from the bottom of the stairs. "You comin?"

"Uh, yeah." Stan hesitantly said, before swallowing his fear and walking downstairs. 

What he walked into was nothing like what Bill had described. The room was slightly lit by a lamp, with a table with a game on it and a couch. All over the walls were movie posters, and comics were strewn across the floor. The boys all sat down at the table, and Stan sat down on the couch.

"So, why did you climb out of the sewers?" Mike asked again, repeating what he said earlier.

"I told you, I don't want to explain," Stan replied, rolling his eyes.
