Ben and I rushed in to find everyone frantically walking around. Eddie came out of the bathroom, screaming as his cheek was stabbed with something. Ben rushed in the bathroom as soon, as the word 'Bowers' was mentioned. I kind of wanted to book it out of here, seeing how deranged this whole situation is, but Richie already stole my idea, so I joined in on the others trying to keep him from leaving.

After I came back into the main room, I noticed Bill saying something about a kid to Bev and quickly rushing out of the building. I had the urge to run after him and so I did.

We ended up at a carnival. I tried to catch up with him, but I bumped into someone. It wasn't enough to make either of us fall, but it did cause slight impact. I know I had to get to Bill before he did anything stupid, but something about the person made me want to stay.

"You look familiar...do I know you?" I asked the stranger.

It was a girl with platinum blonde, wavy hair. Her face seemed stuck in an anxious expression. The hair stood out in the crowd, making it quite distracting.

"No...I- who are you? And I'm sorry for bumping into you." She apologized. She looked a bit terrified of me.

"Y/N. I'm not sure if I want to give out my last name to a stranger, though." I replied.

"I'm Alyssa. Is your last name L/N by any chance?"

"Y/N! Earth to Y/N!" She snapped her fingers in front of my face. I flinched.

"Oh, sorry, yeah it's me. Alyssa, holy shit! I haven't seen you in so long!" I exclaimed and tackled her in a hug. She stumbled back a bit from the impact.

"How's uh...how's life going?" I awkwardly asked after pulling away from the hug.

"Well, I- I finished school here after you left. College too. I got a pretty decent job. Why did you leave without any explanation? I was so worried, I thought you had gone missing like the other kids!" Alyssa scolded me.

"I'm not exactly great with saying goodbyes to people. Especially not if it's about never seeing someone again or, in this case, not seeing someone for a long long while." I explained.

After that, we stood there for a good awkward moments, not knowing what to say. As soon, as Alyssa tried to say something - Bill ran past me. I muttered a quick 'sorry, I have to go' and ran after Bill.

"WAIT! I DIDN'T EVEN GET YOUR PHONE NU-" I heard her yelling behind me. I groaned and quickly ran back. She unlocked her phone and I put the number in the contacts. Then I ran after Bill again.

He got his bike, which made it more difficult to catch up to him to the carnival, and drove away. I tried to catch him, but I was beginning to get tired from all the running. I'm a spy, but hey that doesn't make us not get tired. I stopped to catch my breath. Where would Bill go? Bill said something about a boy, so maybe IT killed him - resulting Bill to go ape shit and run again...this felt a lot like the same Bill that wanted to take revenge on Pennybitch for taking his brother away. The one who saw where it went off- THE CRACKHEAD HOUSE! Right, that's it!

"Hey, kid, can I borrow your roller skates?" I asked a teenager, who was passing by.

"No way, what the fuck?" He replied, I sighed and grabbed some money out of my wallet.

"Here, this should buy you new ones. I'm really in a rush, my friend is in danger." I handed him the money and he looked shocked. Eventually, he gave in and gave me the roller skates.

"If I see you ever again, I'll try to give you your roller skates back!" I exclaimed and rode away on the roller skates.

"BUT WHAT ABOUT THE-" He yelled after me, but I was already too far away to hear him.

The helmet? The money? I wondered what the boy had said. The kid probably needs the helmet more than I do and same with the money, but- NOW IS NOT THE TIME, Y/N! YOU'RE TRYING TO PREVENT YOUR FRIEND FROM CHARGING HEAD ON INTO A DEMONIC CLOWN'S LAIR! SNAP OUT OF IT!

I zoomed to the lair and saw the bike dropped by the house, but no sight of Bill. Maybe he was in already? Ok, Y/N, you got this! I sharply inhaled and exhaled. My gut told me to get the roller skates outside of the fence, so I did exactly that. I did not know for what reason, though.

I cautiously walked towards the house. I was terrified to go back in there even after 27 long years.

"Fuck it!" I whisper-yelled and bust the door open. I looked around and it was silent for a while before I heard screaming. I went to the source and it was Mike and Beverly holding Ben, while something was being carved into his stomach. I was about to go help, but it seemed like they got it under control. Beverly ran up to a mirror and shattered it, which made Ben's scar disappear. The clown had been in the mirror, while it had not appeared visible in real life.

A door then opened, which revealed more screaming. This screaming sounded more masculine, though. I rushed in to see Bill yelling at Eddie for something, but Mike stopped him before it could escalate. Richie was laying on the ground, but once he made eye contact with me - he almost basically flew towards me.

"Where were you?!" He exclaimed in a panicky voice.

"I kind of seemed to miss your entrance like last time. Except, I was the one who arrived later." I awkwardly laughed.

"Well, you missed out on both of my speeches. I said: "Let's kill this fucking clown" and it was very epi-"

"Enough chit-chat! We have to go." Bill interrupted. Richie looked mildly annoyed.

Then all color faded to black.
