Sadie and Richie sat in the familiar arcade. She was sitting in a chair, hunched over, her head resting in her hands, as she watched Richie play the arcade game. His grunts of frustration were the only thing amusing to Sadie. She giggled when he lost. He glared at her, in a joking way. Planting a tiny kiss on her nose.

"Ew, gross!" She squealed wiping her nose. her face burning red. They did not hide their feelings for each other at all. Some would say it was adorable and others would say it was disgustingly adorable. He pouted, his nose shriveled. The arcade door opened and a gust of cold air brushed along with it. Sadie ignored it for the fact that she was just staring deeply into Richie's eyes.

"It has Beverly."

Sadie turned around to see Bill standing there, "What?" Richie said.

"It has Beverly." Sadie's facial expression changed, She quickly got up from the stool with Richie, Richie shaking his head, "How long ago?"

"N-Not so long ago."

"Let's go," Sadie said.

They walked to It's house, waiting for the rest of the Losers to show up, minus Beverly. One by one they showed up. Richie looked around for a weapon and saw the bottle, he carefully picked it up and smashed it on the railing, it didn't break the way he wanted it to so he threw it aside. Sadie grabbed the same metal pole from last time. Mike brought some type of gun. Eddie threw his fanny pack into the lawn of the horrid house and as for Bill? He handed weapons to everyone.

"R-Ready?" Bill asked. They all nodded. They walked into the house and straight down into the basement. Sadie clenched her teeth as she looked at the well. Mike tied the roped around a piece of metal sticking out of the well. He tugged on it, "Alright, who's first?"

"Hey Eddie, you got a quarter?" Richie joked. "I wouldn't want to make a wish in that fucking thing."

Sadie tugged onto the rope, "I'll go first." "Oh hell no."

"Yes, Richie." Richie gave Sadie the puppy dog eyes. She pecked his lips. Gagging came out of the boys' mouth.

"Oh shut up." Richie rolled his eyes.

Sadie went down the well, she found a hole and crawled her way into it. "You okay?"

"Ye-" She was cut short by a hand being put over her mouth. She screamed.

"Sadie?" Richie's screams could be heard as the figure dragged her away. A single tear came out of her eye as she came to the clearing. Beverly was floating in the air, lifeless. It looked her in the eyes, "Sweet fear."

Sadie put two and two together. "I'm not afraid of you." She spat. It looked at her, "W-Wha-"

"I said, I'm not afraid of you!"

It shrieked a little bit before opening his mouth wide. And the last thing Sadie saw was white.
