Avira's POV
I woke up a little while later. I looked up to see a grey ceiling, my head aching. I tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness hit me like a brick and I laid down again and groaned. I felt like absolute shit.

Stars danced in my eyes and I heard movement around me. I finally managed to sit up and pull myself to the wall.

"Hello Avira..." The low voice said. But this time, the voice belonged to someone... or something...

Suddenly a clown turned the corner. No, I'm serious. An actual clown was looking at me. IT was wearing a white suit with red pompoms and red and white grease paint. White gloves covered IT's hands and IT's eyes were bright blue, like the sky had been at the Barrens.

"How do you know my name?" I asked, my voice wavered slightly.  I ran my fingers through my red and black hair.

"I've known you since you were a child..." IT giggled. Strangely,  I wasn't that afraid. "Don't be scared Avira.. Fear... is your worst enemy... Being afraid makes you weak..."

I swallows hard and said, "W-wait...   you have been following me.. and sending-"

"The red balloons?" IT asked and pulled me to my feet. I nodded. "I had to bring my daughter here somehow, didn't I?" It laughed.

"Wait a minute... back the fuck up... I'm your daughter...?" I raised an eyebrow at IT and my eyes widened when IT's eye color changed.

"Months ago..." IT said, stretching out the last letter. "I told you... Soon you would have answers, remember?"

I thought back to the memory. The red balloon by my window.  The voice that called my name. The boy chasing after a paper boat...

"Your eyes..." I whispered. "What are you...?"

"Not human." IT said, lowly. "Your powers make sense now, don't they?" IT smiled coldly.

"I'm half human... and half.. whatever you are..." A shiver ran up my spine as I felt a gloved hand on my shoulder. "I don't get this... You're trying to tell me that my mother is human and my father is a fucked up, clown-devil-monster-thing with powers that lives in the sewers? No offense..."

IT shrugged and led me to a stage. Piled up near it were toys, children's toys to be exact. Dolls and bicycles and stuffed animals were piled high. IT picked me up and placed me on the stage and I looked around.

"Well you know my name... but what's your name... uh..?" I said softly. Well he was my father after all but I just couldn't call him dad yet. This shit was gonna make my brain explode.

"I'm Pennywise, The Dancing Clown..." Pennywise said grinning. "And I am your father." {Lol, Star Wars.. I had to...}

I nodded and turned around and my eyes went wide. Laying on the ground was the body of a child. The side of the kid's shirt was bloody and I could see it's ribs through the hole. "What the fu-"

And that's when I made the mistake of looking up. Floating above me were bodies... bodies of children. Everything clicked into place. I looked back at my father- no wait, I can't call him that yet. I looked at Pennywise who's now, yellow eyes looked back at me calmly.

"You're the one who's been...." I couldn't finish my sentence.  I looked back at the body on the ground. My mouth started watering at the sight of blood. I felt my teeth turn to fangs and my eyes changed.

Pennywise smirked and said. "Looks like someone has a craving for blood." He walked over to the body and literally  pulled off the kid's arm. Fresh blood pooled from the shoulder and IT cupped some blood into IT's hand and drank. "Come here Avira... Satisfy your thirst for once..."

"N-no I can't... I can't drink blood or eat human flesh. I'm half human... I-I..." As if my feet had a mind of its own, I started walking towards the body.  I couldn't stop myself. I knelt next to the body and cupped the blood into my hand. It was warm. Oh god, what am I doing!

I brought my hands to my lips, and I took a sip. I felt like fire was running through my veins. I wanted more. I took another sip, eventually finishing the blood in my hands.  Pennywise smiled at me, our yellow eyes meeting.

"Avi... what else can you do?"

"Um, I can change my eye color, give myself fangs, give myself claws... uh, jump and run fast... I'm pretty strong I guess..." I replied, wiping the blood from my mouth.

"Have you ever tried making illusions or using telepathy or being invisible?" A smile started growing on IT's face. I shook my head. "Time for you to learn something actually important for once..."And with that, Pennywise took my hand and led me off the stage.

Avira will NOT be able to shapeshift cause she is half human and not a full.. demon? I don't know but these are her powers or soon to be powers.

•Enhanced speed, agility and strength
•changing her eye color, fangs, claws ect.
•Invisiblitly
•Telepathy (can sense emotions and thoughts)
•making Illusions  (Like her dad)
•Persuasion
(+ anything I decide to add along the way)
