Once Upon A Time:The Other Books

The Losers Club

Henry woke up, to a dull light. He could tell it was day but the sunlight was almost dull. He walks over to the window and looks at the sky, everywhere he looks it's the same pale white color, he can't even see the sun. He hears a knock at the door.

"Come in." He says and the door slowly opens and Carrie walks in the door closing by its self behind her.

"It's strange isn't it. How the mist blocks even the sun." She says.

"Ya, you said you were going to take me to see your friends."

"Ya, follow me."

Henry follows her through town, as they pass a burned school he notices Carrie shudder and look away from it.

"What happened here?" He asks

"Me" and that's all she said.

She leads him down into a valley filled with trees. When they enter a clearing she looks around. Suddenly a trap door flys open and screams come out of the hole that appeared. A red haired girl pokes her head out of the hole.

"CARRIE WHITE! THAT'S NOT FUNNY!" She yells laughing.

"Oh Bev, I knew I wouldn't scare you, I wanted to hear the boys scream like little girls." Carrie says laughing

"That they did." The red haired girl says. She then notices Henry behind Carrie.

"Who are you?

"That's Henry, he's new here."

"Bullshit, there's nobody new in this hell bowl." A boy with glasses says as he pulls himself up out of the ground.

"That's the thing, he's the first to get in." Carrie says

"I came through a portal." Henry says

"How did you make one?" The girl asks.

"Magic bean, here I'll show you." Henry says pulling out the book as 5 more boys crawl out of the hole. They all flip through the book reading it.

"T-t-these are a-all f-f-f-fairtales." The red haired boy says

"And my family."

"That's a big smelly load of horse shit." The boy with glasses says.

"Beep beep Richie" the smallest boy says. The glasses kid rolls his eyes

"It's true, he showed me." Carrie says.

"Does that mean the dome is getting weaker?" The small boy says pulling a inhaler out and taking a puff from it. For some reason it bothered Henry, everything seemed familiar, yet so strange at the same time. The sound of twigs snapping caused all of them to turn towards the trees.

"Shit, I think that's Henry." A boy who looked like he was overweight, but losing the pounds says. The studdering boy motions for them to enter the hole. Carrie was he last one in and they had closed the hole when the voices filled the air.

"Those stupid losers always disappear in this fucking clearing." A boy shouts.

"Henry, we have to be careful now. Their now friends with that pig. And you saw what she did to the school." A girl says, Henry looks at Carrie and her knuckles turn white and her pupils start to pulse. Henry placed a hand on her arm and she her head snaps up and looks at him.

"What's this?" A different guy says right above them. Henry pulls his book out and the quill. He quickly scribbles something down and a sword appears in the middle of the underground room. Everyone but Carrie jumps back into the walls as they could and stare at it in fear. Now it was Carrie's turn to calm them. Henry grabs the hilt just the trap door flys open. Carrie shoots a blast of telekinetic energy it and knocks everyone back. Henry climbs out and takes stance and a kid with a mullet gets up.

"Who the hell are you?" Mullet kid says.

"My name is Prince Henry Mills of Storybrooke." Henry says, the girl who was helped another boy to his feet snorts.

"You must be delusional, because there are no royalty here. Except for the clown." She says. Henry has the point aimed right at the mullet kid. The guy the girl had helped up had picked up a branch and had swing it at him trying to disarm him, when Henry perfectly dodged it and couterstruck and knocking the guys hand in the process.

"Dude, where the hell did you learn to do that?" The guy says.

"Step father, and Grandfather."

"Who the hell are they?" The girl says

"You might know them as Captain Hook, and Prince Charming."

They three kids stared him before bursting into laughter. Carrie had lifted herself bout of the hole and placed herself beside him. The girl stops long enough to see her.

"Aww, look the pig showed up. Wouldn't your mother think it's a sin to be in a hole with 7 boys?" She says.

"Shut up Chris, I killed you once. I can do it again."

It was then when Henry realized where he was.

"I'm in a Stephan King version of Storybrooke." He says his eyes widening.

Pennywise watched from the shadows, the boy who had appeared was different, he was less afraid that the kids who had first taken him down as children, and again as adults.

He was a threat, a threat who could end him forever unless he could make him afraid, unless he made him stop believing that he was fearless, and stop believing in hope.
