!
We all headed to the house on Neibolt, luckily, we were just in time because Bill was making his way to the door
"Wait!" I shouted
He stopped and looked surprised to see us all
"No! I-I started all this. I-it's my fault you're all here. This curse, this f-fucking thing that's inside you all I-it start growing the day I m-m-made you go down to the barrens cause all I cared about was f-f-finding Georgie. Now I'm going to go in there and I don't know what's going to happen, but I can ask for you to do this." He said
My heart ached for him, still to this day Bill never forgave himself for any of it. The whole Georgie getting killed, to all the other kids getting taken after we all found out about the truth.
I looked over to see the spear I used the first time was lay on the floor
I walked over and grabbed it, showing Bill that I wasn't afraid one bit of Pennywise.
"we're not asking you either." Beverly said, stepping forward with me
"yeah we didn't do it alone then, so we are not going to do this alone now." Mike said
"bill, I'm not going to let you go in there on your own. What happened... you need to stop blaming yourself. We are in this together and if you think I'm going to let you go in there all on your own and stand no chance against 'IT' then you have another thing coming. I-I need you Bill, you're my best friend." I said, my eyes turning glossy over the thought of letting him go in there no his own
"Losers stick together." Ben said
We all nodded, agreeing that we were all in it together
"So, does anyone want to say something?" Eddie asked
"Richie said it b-b-est when we were here last." Bill said
I turned to Richie who looked confused
"I did?" he asked, "I don't want to die?"
I let out a little chuckle
"Not that." Bill said
"You're lucky we're not measuring dicks?"
I rolled my eyes at how oblivious he could be at times
"No..." I mumbled
"Let's kill this fucking clown?" he asked
Bill smiled and nodded
"Let's kill this fucking clown." Richie repeated this time meaning it
We all grabbed all we could before heading inside
I used my torch to navigate me and Eddie in the right direction, he was practically clinging onto me for dear life
"Eddie, it's okay." I said
He shook his head, not saying another word

The place looked no different to when it did when we were kids, maybe a little bit dustier but that was it
Some thick burning black liquid was starting to work its way down the stairs, coming closer to us
"Well I love what he's done with the place." Richie said
'Beep beep Richie." Beverly said
We all followed Bills lead into the next room, looking around to see nothing had changed at all.
There was a creaking sound of a door behind me, the floor boards making weird sounds every time we moved. Everything about this house was creepy.
"This is creepy." I mumbled, the silence taking over us once again
We walked into a room and we all stopped to the sound of Ben screaming in pain
"Ben!?" Beverly said and ran into the next room where the sounds were coming from
The door slammed shut behind her
We all ran over and tried to open the door
"Guys!?" I shouted
"Ben?" Bill shouted
We all started to pound on the door trying to get in somehow but no use, we couldn't ever hear anything on the other side
"BEN!" Bill shouted
I heard a bang, something moving behind us
I turned around, seeing Eddie spotted it to
'G-guys" I said
Richie and Bill stopped and turned towards the moving object too
The fridge started to shake
"That can't be good right?" Richie asked
From afar I could hear Beverly's screams, but I was too scared what was about to come
"Oh my god..." the door flung open ad there was a person inside all twisted and bent, squeezing into the tiny space
The head slowly lifted up, my eyes widening as I noticed who the boy was. Stanley. He wasn't his usual self, he was grey, with dark eyes. Making it clear it want the Stanley we knew, only the one who haunted our dreams
"it's Stan." Richie said
Stanley started to scream making us all jump
I quickly took a step back, grabbing onto Eddie
The head fell off, rolling towards us all
"Ohhh shit!" Bill said
We all backed away as far as we could until the head stopped rolling
"Guys..." I mumbled
The sweet boy we once knew was there right in front of us, he turned his attention to bill
"I'd still be alive if it wasn't for you Bill." He said
I looked over to bill to see the guilt take over him
"Don't listen Bill! It wasn't your fault." I said, "He's trying to get I your head!"
"R-Richie what's happening to me" the head cried

His face started to move, like there was things crawling inside of it
"I'm going to be sick." Eddie said and gagged
Little tiny sticks started piercing out his face, making tiny legs to the ground
"What the..."
Stanley screamed out in the pain as there was more piercing through, making him look almost like a spider
Eddie screamed next to me
"it's okay Eddie, its Pennywise messing with us. Guys its Pennywise! Remember that. It isn't our friend its Pennywise!"
Stanley lifted himself out by the legs before laughing frantically
"You've got to be fucking kidding me!" Richie said
Stanley broke out into a grin, looking directly at me. before charging over
I screamed and jolted back before Bill kicked Stanley away
"Oh my god!" Eddie shouted
He showed off his sharp teeth, charging at us all trying to bite us every chance he got
I grabbed the spear next to me and kept hitting him away
Stanley jumped up to Bill, before Bill hit him down the gap where I presume a window used to be
Bill looked down where he just fell, and I searched the area with my flash light
I noticed Eddie was still in the same spot as he was before Stanley came out the fridge
"Hey you okay?" I asked
"I-i- "Eddie started to talk before we noticed a long line of what looked like saliva fall down from the ceiling
The lump formed in my throat, not wanting to look up and see what its coming from. I slowly looked up to see Stanley was there on the ceiling
He grinned making a weird sound
"Oh, there he is." Richie said from behind
Stanley screamed and jumped down to us, making me let out a scream
I felt a body collide with me, making me fall to the ground. Everything going black
Eddies pov –
I stood against the wall, looking up to see Stanley was now on the ceiling
He did a big grin before jumping down towards Y/n
She let out a scream before Richie jumped across and pushed her out the way, making Stanley fall on him
Richie started screaming as the head tried to attack him
Bill ran over and tried to get the spider off, pulling as hard as he could
"Get him off of me!!" Richie shouted
"I-I want to go home." I mumbled. I closed my eyes trying to think of my happy place hoping all this would go away. But it wouldn't this was real, and I wasn't ready for it. I didn't want to be here, I was only here because e of y/n and I've eve failed her tonight
"T-t-the knife!" Bill said looking at the knife that was on the floor across the room "Damn it Eddie get the knife!" he shouted
My eyes widened, still frozen in shock. No matter how hard I tried I couldn't move. I didn't want to move
"Get the knife!" Bill said
I looked over to y/n to still see she was unconscious, shed know what to do
I saw the others run in, Ben grabbed the knife and quickly stuck it in the head
Stabbing it over and over again until it stopped moving
Bill grabbed the head and threw it across the room
the head slowly started to get up before doing the famous grin gain, running out the door
"Y/n!" Ben said and ran over to her
"Is everyone okay?" Beverly asked and went over to help Richie who was now covered in what looked like saliva from Stanley
He started to choke and sat up, regaining his breath
"Y-you could've fucking died man!" Bill said and pushed me to the wall "A-and you know that right!"
I slowly shook my head
"G-Georgie's dead, the kids dead, Stan-Stanleys dead! A-a-and you want Richie too!"
Mike pulled Bill away a little trying to calm him down "You want Richie too!"
My heart sunk at the fact I could've been the reason for someone else dying
"I-I don't. please don't be mad Bill." I cried "I was just scared."
"Yeah... that's what he w-w-wants right. Don't give it to him. What if it was y/n? would you have helped then? Cause look at her now?"
I turned around to see she was still unconscious in bens arms
I ran over to her
"I'm so sorry y/n" I said and stroked her face
"She'll be fine she's just banged her head." Ben said
I nodded and sighed
"E-Eds?" she mumbled
My heart began to race as I saw her eyes open, a small smile appears on her face
Your pov –
I opened my eyes to see everyone gathered around
"W-what happened" I asked
"Ask Stan" Richie said
I frowned, remembering the spider looking Stan tried to attack us
"Did we win?"
"Not yet. W-we got to keep moving." Bill said
I nodded and Ben helped me up
"Y/n, I'm sorry. It's all my fault" Eddie said
I frowned "What is?"
"I-I nearly let Richie die, I-I nearly let you die. I-I'm sorry I don't want you to die" he said
I pulled him into a hug,
"Neither of us are dead therefore you have nothing to feel guilty for. Yeah, I had a headache, but I'll live. Don't worry. We are all in this together okay?"
He nodded and pulled me in closer "I'm sorry"
I smiled "Stop. Stop beating yourself up now come on"
I grabbed his hand and followed the others
