The return of Pennywise the clown
A fan version of the story of IT , different children , different fears , different town but same old clown . I hope you enjoy what is , my version of IT!
Hello , I would like to share a story , a story of a group of children all aged 12. These children are your average group of kids , not very popular and easily forgotten and it was only thanks to a creature of another world that this group became such good friends . They held a secret , the knowledge of alien life , something no one would believe . But before we get to that perhaps you would like to know who this group is and why you should care about their secret.
Our story follows Samantha Evans , a shy girl who's the most talented artist in her school . She doesn't have any friends as she lives in a house near the beach where the only neighbours she has is the animals of the land and creatures in the sea nearby. Samantha or Sam as her parents call her , spends most of her time at home sitting in her room looking out the window for inspiration , be it a drawing or a thought to help her sleep at night. A knock at the door distracted Sam from her thought process. "what?" she said looking at her room door. "Sam can I come in please" Sams mother maria asked. Sam rose from her seat and walked over to the door then opened it slightly , " um , I am not feeling very well mum please don't make me go in like this" Sam pleaded . Maria looked at her and responded in a harsh tone " If you are not downstairs dressed and ready in five minutes I will be dragging you to school , am I making myself clear?". Sam nodded then closed the door and walked over to her wardrobe and took her red skirt and white top , "where is it!" Sam asked herself as she frantically threw her clothes out of the wardrobe. She then stopped and took her blue jacket from the bottom and changed from her pyjamas to her clothes she selected.
Maria was waiting by the front door for her in her nurse uniform , a angry look on her face as she stood still , her patience running thinner by the second. "SAMANTHA MAE EVANS WILL YOU HURRY UP!" she shouted as she unlocked the front door and walked out to her car. Sam rushed into the bathroom and quickly washed her face then looked at her long ginger hair in disgust , not washed in two days and looks messy. Sam shook her head then ran downstairs and put her purple trainers on then rushed out the house closing her front door behind her then got into the front passenger seat of her mothers car. " sorry I was just"-"I DONT... I don't want to hear it" Maria interrupted as she started the car and started driving Sam to her school.
Sam sat back in her seat as she reached into her pocket and took her phone out then her headphones from her jacket pocket then connected her headphones to her phone and started playing a song on her phone as she put the headphones in her ears and closed her eyes. Maria looked at her then looked forward at the road , she couldn't see very well due to the sudden downpour of rain. Sam was daydreaming about pirates on an epic adventure out at sea when all of a sudden her thoughts went black and all she could see in her imagination was a red balloon in the distance , as hard as she tried she couldn't get the thought out of her head. A dark and sinister voice was whispering then it shouted "YOU'LL FLOAT TOO!". Sam gasped as she opened her eyes and looked very scared as she looked out and could see her school to her right. Maria stopped the car outside the school gates and looked at Sam the spoke very calmly "its only school , you go there to learn and have fun" "but" "NO … no buts sam , now you go in there and you have a good day , talk to people and who knows , maybe you will make a friend or two". Sam looked down and quietly spoke "you always say that and your always wrong". She took her headphones off and got out of the car then shut the door.
Maria drove off as Sam stared at her mother leaving her for another day of school alone. As she went to the gates she could hear a boy yell "NNOOOO!". She looked around and saw a young boy in a bright yellow raincoat chasing a small boat paper boat down the road. The boy stopped and knelt down on the ground looking for his boat down a storm drain. "are you alright?" Sam asked the boy. He replied "i lost my boat , my brother will kill me … can you help me?". Sam looked at him then looked down " no … its just a boat , be grateful you still have a brother left" she answered as she turned away and opened the gate then head up to the school doors. She stopped as she could hear a loud scream , she then looked around to see no one in sight … not even the little boy. Sam walked back down to the gate then stared at the storm drain. She looked away then looked back as a red balloon appeared , she gazed at it as it floated up into the sky. Sam ran off to school as she didn't want to be late to class.
