Chapter 4

Pennywise opened his mouth as his rows of teeth started to emerge , "TasTy FresSHhh FeaRR". It growled to itself. Sam stood up and crossed her arms oblivious to pennywise intentions "i suppose you have me". Pennywise stopped and closed his mouth looking at her , "what do you mean?" it asked whilst feeling a sharp pain in its stomach. Sam stood up and looked at it , "my daddy always wanted me to do the good thing...help the good and ignore the bad , but you seem hurt and alone ...i wish I could help you … if there was a way I could I would" . Pennywise stood In a state of confusion , not only did it just meet a human but a human who didn't fear it and even tried to help it . It looked down and with a sad voice it spoke "people like me are supposed to be left alone for good reason … we do bad things...we do not deserve help". Sam reached into her pocket and pulled out a small pocket watch then placed it into pennywise's hand then stood back and smiled. "its not much but , its something". Pennywise looked down at the watch studying but eventually asking "what is it?". " a watch to tell the time … but more importantly... a gift from me to you , that's what friends do" Sam answered with a smile then looked around and found her phone , she walked over and picked it up putting it in her pocket then finds Jodie's Walkman laying on the ground. "ooohhhh...walk...man...walkman" she picked it up then put it in her pocket then looked at pennywise who was still staring at the watch. "i gotta go now , il see you soon though" she told it whilst walking out of the large room and back to the drain. She climbed up and just managed to fit through.

Pennywise looked up then held the watch tight and crushed it with a very cross look on his face then a face of pain. "I NEED TO FEAST!" it yelled at itself whilst searching the sewer for a sign of human meat. "something something I need something!" it muttered to itself whilst looking. It stopped as it could hear the sounds of children playing nearby. It smiled whilst walking over to the drain and looking out at the kids on the street.

The next day Samantha reluctantly got out of bed and got herself prepared for yet another day of school , however this time she had a drawing ready , a gift for her new found friend. By the time she arrived at school she looked over at the drain and saw a small trail of blood , she shook her head then looked again as the blood disappeared. She felt confused but didn't think check on it as she wandered off into the school gates , first she went to the library and knocked on the room door with the name "losers club members only" on. Peter opened the door and stood by it blocking view of inside , "hey Samantha , um how can I help you?" he asked with a smile. Samantha reached into her bag and took out Jodies walkman "i saw you were with that new girl the other day , just thought I should give you this to give to her , im not in first session I have a piano lesson." peter nodded as she quickly placed the walkman in peters hand and walked off. "whats her problem?" ned asked whilst closing the door and sitting back at the table.

A few minutes passed as peter and ned were round the table discussing heroes battling each other and who would win in specific situations. Jodie knocked then opened the door "um hey , you guys cool if I uh , stay here for a bit?". "sure" peter replied as he looked at ned and nodded at him to stop their conversation. Jodie shut the door and walked over then sat at the table and smiled , "so whatcha chatting about?" she asked. Ned ignored her and took his notepad out. Peter looked at her ,"uh ignore him he doesn't talk much , we were just thinking , there's a comic con soon and maybe um , you would like to go?". Jodie looked stunned then asked "me? Don't those things cost a lot?". Peter laughed then answered "we have the money just not the company and well , clearly your encounter with cool kids didn't go to plan". Jodie looked down embarrassed. "relax" peter reassured her as he put his hand on her shoulder and smiled " I told you , your welcome here , your where you belong , with friends and family … people who care about you". Jodie looked up and smiled at him. Peter reached into his jacket pocket and gave Jodie her walkman "gift from Samantha don't ask me why she had it I aint gotta clue".

Jodie looked at her walkman then put it in her bag. Ned put his notebook down and looked at Jodie then asked "what's up with you and Samantha?". Jodie felt confused "i don't know" she answered looking at peter , peter didn't get involved then Jodie looked back at ned "i don't understand what you mean there's nothing , that's what's up ...nothing". Ned crossed his head and looked at his notebook "your lying to yourself". Jodie felt annoyed then clicked her fingers getting neds attention "hey , I said I don't know … if you know something I don't then don't hide be a man and tell me". Ned glanced at her then stood up and walked over to the computer in the corner of the room and put his headphones on and turned the computer on. Jodie sat back and looked at peter , "if there was something I did wrong wouldn't she tell me?". Peter shrugged then looked at her "a lot of weird things happen around this place , people are always changing moods , Samantha has always been a bit weird , always... distant from reality".

Peter and Jodie started talking about their lessons as ned was looking on the internet , ned took his headphones off as a sudden glimpse of what looked like a clown jump scared ned. "AAAHHHH!" he screamed as he fell back off his chair. Peter stood up and rushed over helping him up "the hell was that?" he asked whilst Jodie laughed. Ned looked at the computer to see the image had gone. "sorry probably just a...uh..a virus or something...something popped up was kinda creepy". Peter walked over and sat at the computer as the tabs were deleting themselves then a new tab opened. Peter looked confused and shocked. "you two come ere". Ned and Jodie walked over looking at the computer which had started typing "latest news Arcadia bay area".ned hit peters shoulder "stop it your creeping me out", "i ain't touching anything" peter replied as he moved back a bit in the chair. The computer loaded up a news page , Jodie read out the headline "3 students found dead in Arcadia ". peter looked confused then looked to ned in hope that he would come out and say it was a prank but he had no luck. Jodie carried on reading the article on the page "last night 3 students of Arcadia bay were found dead , they have since been identified as " she stopped looking shocked. Peter read out the names "Peter Yeager , Edward Rogers and Jodie Marshall". Jodie looked at peter then at ned. Ned was shaking a little "b. how..we..we ain't..we ain't dead". The three looked at the page as it turned to white and in a red font the word "YET" appeared with blood dripping from the letters.

"STOP IT JUST STOP IT its clearly a fucking sick joke and I want it to stop!"ned shouted as he stood away from the computer. Peter looked closely at the screen then put his finger on the letters then looked as his finger had a drop of blood on. Ned stared at peter slowly walking away backwards , "FUCK THIS!" he yelled as he ran out of the room and out of the school. Jodie went to go after him but peter stopped her "hes just gonna go home he will be fine."

ned was running home when he ran out of breath and stopped looking around to see a clear road ahead and a clear road behind him. He sat down on the curb of the road right above a sewer drain as a voice started whispering in his ear "Where you going neddy?...dontcha wanna float!". Ned shook his head and shut his eyes tightly". He felt something grab his ankle however he didn't open his eyes or move a muscle thinking it was just his imagination. He then opened and saw a zombie like hand holding his ankle. He stood up quick and broke his foot free standing back in the road staring at the drain. "HA ...I WIN!" he shouted at the drain. A laugh could be heard then a dark voice followed "no Edward...you lose". Ned stood confused as a truck horn could be heard very close. Ned looked to his left to see a large truck was driving straight for him. He attempted to run but a hand grabbed his ankle again , he looked down to see the hand was merged with the concrete road. He struggled trying desperately to escape as the truck got closer . With his last breath he shouted "NNNNOOOO!" as the truck hit him , his body brutally disfigured and limbs detaching itself from his body but all that could be seen were anyone watching would be a second of blood flowing everywhere.

Neds arm rolled on the floor close to the sewer drain as Pennywise appeared in the drain watching the truck go by , it smiled then grabbed what remained of neds nearby corpse and brought it into his sewer home to feast , for tonight Pennywise would not go hungry.
