       “I walked slowly towards my home uninterested with all the commotion on the streets. After seeing my house in the woods I walked across the yard. There was small splatters along the stones leading towards the shed.  I wandered towards the shed and look carefully through the window. There hung the dead body of my cat named Penny. Her copper pelt was shredded and hanging limply from the window I was looking out of. As fast as i saw her hanging limply a bloody hand swiped across the window. I darted away as fast as I could go and hid under the table we have outside. I sat under the table for awhile and nothing else happened so I got up and went back over to the shed. I looked at the window and  looked at the blood smears. A dark shadow comes across the window and a white hand puts itself by my face. I slowly look up and see the figure that put their hand by the window from the other side of the wall. THere stood PEnniwise smiling his famous rigid smile while having my cat’s leg in his mouth with blood dripping down his chin slowly. 

    I ran and kept on running until I was at a police station telling them about what happened at my house. They drove me home and looked inside the shed and there was no blood at all, infact Penny was standing by the door waiting to be let inside. I apologized about the mistake I made and walked inside my house. There was my mother inside making food with some raccoon meat she likes to eat. I walked in the dark grey kitchen, that didn’t match any of the light blue walls around the house, and hugged her shoulders, smiling. I sat at the table doing my homework, listening to my mother talk about work and the garden.  

    After eating the Raccoon stew I walk along the house checking to make sure everything is alright before i got to bed. Everything was alright besides the raccoons going crazy from being in a cage for 15 minutes. I walked in the house and saw a rat crawling towards my room. I slowly followed the rat in the room and saw it on the cat bed. It layed there all decayed like it hadn’t moved in weeks. There was no smell to the dead body lying on the bed. The room slowly started to turn black and spin really fast. The black hole that had just consumed me open abruptly to a blinding white. The room filled with laughing penniwises and a circus background. The sound of the taunting circus music and jaws theme song was agitating. I was screaming begging it to stop though I couldn't even hear my own voice over the music. I had some sort of hope that someone would hear me and stop the music. Instead the music stopped like when a conductors silences his band and left me with an airy silence. My mother ran in the room with panic on her face, the look of pure confusion showed upon the darkening face as she saw some blood on the floor and the rat on the cat bed. She yelled for the cat and the cat showed itself then looked at the cat bed and hissed while running away. She wonder quietly to herself about why the cat would react like that to it’s catch. She let out a heavy sigh completely forgetting about the screams of her daughter coming through the door. “ I explained to my counselor

She curiously looked at me with some questions going through her head. I had specifically said I wanted an older women around the age of 50 but instead they gave me this bogus brained loser. She always has questions but never has answers for her patients. I don’t understand how she’s even qualified to even be remotely around children. HEr simple mindedness could possibly make a child become mentally slow. She wears neon colors infront of her patients to try to get them into the clear minded state, but i’m pretty sure the only thing she’s doing with the clothes is blinding her patients. 

I swiftly walk out of the hell hole that they call counselling and decided to make an appointment to discuss the fact of having a new counselor. I turn around the corner and see an old lady laying on the road. 

“What are you doing, miss?”

She slowly craned her neck out and twitches in a weird way. She slowly screeches at me and a car passes right by her but didn’t kill her. She gets up slowly and cracks her neck to where she could see me. With her head backwards but still facing me she smiles. She starts running towards me and I tripped over my feet falling on my butt. She stops right in front of me and falls to the ground and claws at my legs. I scream in pain as her sharp nails dig into my skin. 

“I tried to warn you not to come out of your house today!” She screeches madly at me as I cry. 

“But now it looks like you have to learn your lesson!” she leans closer to my head and I swing my head to the side, crying. 

She slowly takes a big bite off my head and i try to scream but she has half of my tongue so it comes out as a muffled mumble. She takes another bite of my head and drags my body away and into the sewers. She changes her form from an old lady to Pennewise and eats the rest of me. 

I wake up in a rush as cold air blew through my window. I slowly crawl into my mother’s room after climbing out of my crib. I grabbed her blanket and tugged on it to get her up. My father got up instead and picked me up carefully. Once we were in my room I made grabby hands towards my window. My father smirked slightly and opened my window slowly and placed me down on the windowsill. I watch the animals play in the night and I felt myself being picked up. I slowly looked at my father and cried out in pain. My father had a stricken look on his face as blood slowly crept out of his mouth. I look down and a knife went right through him and the tip had dug into my stomach. His lifeless body fall to the floor as I cry and look at my mother. She had an insane look on her face as she slowly removed the knife from his body by grabbing the blade with her hand. Blood slowly flowed out of her hand as she watches me dangerously. After she takes the knife out of him she ran after me I quickly ran to the window and slide under the bush by my window. I hide there thinking my mother was gone until she yanked me up by my hair with such strength that she ripped my scalp. I scream as blood ran down my face and my mother kept pulling me into the house. The neighbors turn their lights on and look out the window to see a small amount of blood i left behind. They call the police as I hear them walk out of their house and stand by the window. My  mom slams  my head against the window and startles the neighbor who starts screaming and crying. My mother looks at her crazed and slowly cuts my hair harshly with the bloody knife. She digs the knife deep into my head and I let out an ear piercing scream. The police ran into the house and watched my mother cautiously. 

“Ma’am, we need you to walk away from the child!” an officer speaks softly. 

“S-She ruined my life, my marriage!” She yells in my ear gripping my hair tighter. 

“Mama, I’m sor-....” I get caught off when the knife goes through my neck forcefully. 

I cry harder and let out small screams. I heard my mom say quietly to the cops that I ruined her relationship to the love of her life so she had to remarry her poor of an excuse of a dad. The cops shot her in the leg after my lifeless s body fell to the floor. 

I opened my eyes and a bright light shone in my eyes. I cried in pain as my body hits the cool air. I’m put up next to a warm body after being wrapped up in a blanket. I softened my crying and smiled softly at the body above me. After awhile the body started getting cold so I cried. The body didn’t move to comfort me anymore. A big shadow walked over to me and yelled at me as I cried louder. The figure roughly grabbed my head with one hand and threw me on the ground and I cried out in pain and shock. They stomped over and stepped on me making me gasp for air as my ribs are crushed by their feet. I abruptly stopped breathing and crying, but they kept stomping on me crushing as the bones in my small body. Blood slowly flowed out of my ears and mouth. They finally stopped when my body was flat and i layed in a chunky pile of blood and guts.
