The Clown

Chapter 19: The Gift

"I've come to give you an offer."

"Facilier." Eraqus frowned. "Aqua's told me quite enough about you."

"Oh, I bet she has." Facilier smiled faintly.

"Whatever you want to give me, I won't take it."

"That's really a shame. It could help you out so much."

He held up a black box. "This can give you great power. You can do what you always wished to do. You can kill the clown. All I have to do is open this box, and you will have it."

Eraqus thought for a moment. "How much power?" He asked.

"Ultimate power." Facilier replied. "You'll be unstoppable."

"Well, the last time I checked, ultimate power brought an alien invasion to New York. I won't let anything like that happen here."

Eraqus held up his keyblade.

"Well, you asked for it." Facilier opened the box.

What Eraqus saw, was horrific. Some black thing crept slowly out of the box. It slithered towards him, and just before it could touch him, Eraqus teleported out of there.

The thing stopped. Facilier quickly slammed it into the box.

"Time for Plan B." With that, Dr. Facilier teleported.

Meanwhile, Hartman climbed out of the closet in Terra's basement.

"Oh. Hey, Private Terra." He greeted. "Where's Private Pennywise?"

"Uh, he's not here. Strange and I checked."

"What?" Hartman exclaimed. "He said he was going back to The House of Weirdness! He meant this house."

The drill instructor got up. "I guess I'll have to do something else, then."

He walked over to the chair.

"This chair has been moved. (It was in fact moved) He's done something to it. Again."

"No kidding." Terra agreed. "He always does something to the chair."

"Well, I'm gonna put it back in its place." Hartman did just that.

"I wonder where Pennywise is. Don't you?"

"Yes." Terra said quickly.

"Ses!" Hartman responded, which caused Terra to laugh.

"Sauce." He joked.

"Like always. I'm going to find Private Pennywise."

"I'm going to use teleporting powers of my own to go back up to my kitchen. See you later."

They both teleported.

Tony and the kids rode down the highway singing "Ghost Town" by Kanye West (feat. PARTYNEXTDOOR, Kid Cudi, and 070 Shake).

"I feel kinda freeeeeeeee!"

But Bill sat in the back, feeling lonely. He didn't know how to fit in. For months he had thought about nothing but Georgie. Now the only thing he could focus on was his hate for Pennywise. The clown tried to eat his little brother! His brother... Sure he was annoying at times, but he loved him still. He didn't want anything to happen to Georgie now.

Ven noticed this, and when Tony wasn't looking, he switched seats and sat next to Bill.

"Hey, what's wrong?" He asked, concerned.

"W-what do you mean?"

"You seem kinda frustrated by something. What is it?"

"N-nothing." Bill replied.
