The Losers sprinted as they desperately tried to outrun the children.

Beverly screamed as tears flooded her eyes.

They were confronted by a sea of red balloons once again.

Eddie screeched as he pummeled through them.

A gate blocked their way.

Eddie sighed and squeezed his way through, holding his breath in the gray water.

They all did the same without hesitation.

Beverly's leg got caught by a zombie.

"GET IT OFF ME!"
She yelled as everyone grabbed her leg and pulled.

The hand of the child came off as they finally got her loose.

She sobbed as the noise of the zombies grew less and less loud.

They had vanished.

Richie stood up as he began to run again.

"Richie stop! We can't go on with this. I can't take it."

He stopped in his place and turned.

"I agree. She's gone Richie. Just like Georgie. We'll die if we try to go farther."
Beverly said weakly.
Tears filled his eyes as he began to scream at them.

"IM NOT LEAVING HER! YOU CAN DO WHATEVER THE HELL YOU WANT, IM NOT FUCKING LEAVING HER!"

They all stood in silence as they turned around and left him.

He wiped away the tears and continued on.

Finally, an opening with a weak light was in front of him.

He crawled through, and there, lying limp, was Sarah.

"SARAH!"
His voice cracked in pain.

She opened her eyes and smiled weakly.

He felt so much emotion.

He finally put his arm around her neck and kissed her.

For those 10 seconds, it seemed everything was going to be okay.

CRACK

They looked up.

Another explosion erupted from the wall.

Finally, the wall fell as carnival music began to play.

A silhouette of the clown was dancing.

Fear struck their hearts as they grabbed hands and tried to run.

The clown flew into the air and landed in front them, drool spilling from his mouth.

He grabbed Sarah's neck and held her in the air.

Richie kicked the clown in the groin and grabbed her.

He fell to the grown as a hungry smile filled his face.

Richie and Sarah looked at each-other.

Richie then noticed a pipe next to them.

He grabbed it and held it like a baseball bat.

Finally, the monster screeched and catapulted itself towards them.

Richie drove it into his skull as black smoke filled the air.

The monster fell to the ground and let out a weak squeak.

Richie grabbed Sarah's hand and watched as it slowly deteriorated into nothingness.

They finally were safe.

She hugged him and kissed him once again.

"I can't believe it. You did it."

He smiled and wiped away a tear as they got up and left.

As sunlight hit their faces they sighed of relief.

Richie looked farther out and saw the Loser's there.

"Where's Bill?"
He whispered to Sarah as they all cheered and made there way back to him.
"You did it! You saved her!"

"With no help from you guys. She could be dead and you wouldn't care!"

There was a dead silence as Beverly wiped away a tear.

He looked at her, confused.
And then it hit him.

Bill.

Within that second, a splashing noise was heard form the pipes.

They all ran to see what was happening.

"HELP!"
Screamed Bill's voice.

They saw a claw around his neck as he floated in the water.

Eddie grabbed the claw and pulled it off.

It was dead.

Bill grabbed Stan and hugged him.

Slowly everyone hugged them as it became a group hug.

Everyone was safe.

(Sorry this seemed kind of rushed, but I felt like this would be a good way to end this book?? Btw, I'm making a new Stranger Things book soon 👌)
