We all walk down a hill with a train passing us.

"Thanks guys but you shouldn't have done that he'll be after you guys to now." Mike said trying to get heard from the train.

"Ah no no no Bowers he's always after us!" Eddie said to mike.

"I guess that's one t-th-thing we all have in common." Bill stuttered out.

"Yeah homeschool welcome to the Loser's Club." Richie yelled.

" I don't think that's really a good thing but whatever.." I said.

----------Time skip----------

We all arrive at the parade and stood in an ally like thing. Bill looking at the missing posters, and Richie in the back playing a band kids trumpet.

"Hey guys!"Bill yelled. " L-L-Look..."

We all turned our attention to the missing poster that said:

I gulped..

" What are you guys looking at?" Eddie asks holding 1 ice cream. "Shit.. i forgot the other one i'll be right back!" He said walking off again.

Bill flipped up Beverly's poster and showed a next one:

"They say they found a part of his hand all chewed up near the stand up pipe" Stan said with fear

Bill went down to another poster that said:

"It's like she's been forgotten because Corcoan is missing

"It's like she's been forgotten because Corcoan is missing.." Bill said putting the posters back how they were.

I started to tear up.

"Is it ever gonna end.." Stan asked.

"What the fuck dude!" Richie yelled at the band kid for taking his instrument back.

"What are you guys talking about now?" Eddie asked.

"What they always talk about." Richie said grabbing an ice cream.

"I actually think it will end.." Ben started..

I looked at him confused.

"For a little while at least.." He finished.

"What do you m-mean?" I ask.

"So I was going over all my Derry research.. and I charted out all the big events... the iron works explosion in 1908 the Bradley gang in '35 and the black spot in '62 and now kids being.."Ben paused so he wouldn't say the wrong thing in front of Bill." I realized that this stuff seems to happen every.."

"27 years." Me, Bill, and Ben said at the same time.

" Okay so let me get this straight IT comes out from where ever to eat kids for like a year.. And then what? It goes into hibernation?" Eddie said in confusion

"Maybe it's like... What do you call them?" Stan started.

"Cicadas?" I asked my twin bother.

"Yeah, Cicadas ya know the bugs that come out once every 17 years" He said correcting himself.

"My grandfather think this town is cursed." Mike started."He says that all the bad things that happen in this town are because of one thing. An evil thing that feeds off the people of Derry."

I got scared and hugged on Stan.

"But it can't be one thing. We all saw something different." Stan said trying to make everybody believe different.

"Maybe.. Or maybe IT knows what scares us most and that's what we see..." Mike said scaring me more.

"I-I saw a leaper i- it was like a walking infection.." Eddie said.

"But you didn't.. Be- Because it in't real.. none of this is..Not Eddies' leaper, O- Or Bill seeing Georgie,Or-Or the woman me and Y/n keep seeing..."Stan said just to be interrupted by Richie.

"She hot?" Richie said.

"NO RICHIE SHE'S NOT HOT!" Stan screamed scaring me.

"Her face is all messed up..." I said

"None of this makes any sense!!" Stan said. " Their all like bad dreams.."

"I don't think so I know the difference between a bad dream and real life.. Okay?" Mike said.

"What'd you see?" Eddie asked. "You saw something to?"

"Yes, you guys know that burnt down house on Harris avenue? I was inside when it burned down.. Before i was rescued my mom and dad where trapped in the room over from me.... They where pushing and pounding on the door... Trying to get to me... But it was to hot... When we finally found them.. The skin on their hands... Melted down to the bone...We're all afraid of something..." Mike said.

"You got that right.." Richie said looking back at the clown.

"Why Rich? What are you afraid of?" Eddie asked.

"Clowns.." Richie said pushing his glasses up.
