VERA NOLES—
The petite blonde girl's hair flew through the wind as she biked down the empty streets of Derry. She pedalled quickly heading to the library like she usually did every day. As she arrived she couldn't help but wonder where Ben was. His books and bags laid across the regular table, yet he was nowhere to be seen.
The girl shrugged off her backpack, placing it on the chair. As she went to take a seat she saw an out of breath Ben run towards her. He hurriedly picked up his bag pulling the girl out of the library.
Vera's eyebrows furrowed as she was being dragged. "Ben, what's wrong? Where are we going?" He had slowed his pace into a quick walk now. As the two passed the memoriam statue that was stood outside the building they heard a voice. "Where you going tits?" Henry snarled, leaning against the statue.
"Vera, moved on to your next guy huh? Who's next? S-s-stuttering little B-b-billy?" The two tried to run only to be cornered by the rest of the Bower's gang. The two teens got dragged down the road towards an old bridge known for carving your names into with friends. "Hey! Leave me alone! Help!" Ben screamed, his voice beginning to sound raspy due to his screaming. The girl struggled against Patrick's grip.
Everyone in the group, except Patrick who was holding Vera back, pinned Ben to the side of the bridge. They pulled his shirt over his head and watched as a car drove by. The people in the car didn't do anything, didn't stop, didn't even take a second glance.
Ben tried to call out to them for help but it was no use. They continued down the road and if they didn't just see two kids being harassed by a bunch of assholes. After being punched in the face multiple times Henry said to the boy. "This is what us locals call the kissing bridge, It's saved for two things. Sucking face, and carving names." He said as he flicked his switchblade out.
"Henry, please no!" The girl yelled out for the first time since they'd been taken. Ignoring the girl Henry began to carve an 'H' into the boy's stomach. Ben bellowed in pain, struggling to get out the bullies grip. "LEAVE HIM ALONE, GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM HIM YOU ASSHOLE!" Vera screamed, thrashing against Patrick's grip.
"SHUT UP!" Henry turned and slapped the girl. "IM GONNA CARVE MY WHOLE NAME INTO THIS COTTAGE CHEESE!" Patrick loosened his grip on the girl in reaction to her being hit. With this advantage, she kicked the boy behind her in the shin before pulling Henry by his hair and onto the floor. Before the other two boys could grab her she pushed herself and Ben over the edge.
They both tumbled down the hill, hitting trees and logs on their way down. When they reached the bottom they looked up to see the gang following them down the steep hill. Vera took no time pulling herself and her friend to their feet and taking off into the woods.
