Persephone Tinkerbell It Came To California
Chapter 10- Don't You Want A Balloon?
Sam and Dean let themselves into the Sunnydale Library to wait for 'The Losers Club'. They tried to make themselves comfortable when they found the building empty. Dean sat down and flicked through a magazine, but Sam started to pace. "Don't get yourself worked up, you'll only make things worse." Sam ignored his older brother. It was easy for him to say. How was he supposed to stay calm. They were sitting in an empty building waiting to be introduced to a group of adults who claimed that an evil clown monster thing had been killing children. There was no way this was going to go well.
Sam spun around suddenly. "What is it now?!" Dean asked agitated by Sam's inability to relax. "I thought I saw something." It was crazy but he thought he had seen someone standing on the gallery above them. "There is nothing there Sam. You're going to drive yourself crazy." He hated to admit it but Dean was right. If he couldn't cope now, how was he supposed to cope when they actually had work to do. These people were counting on them. They had to act like professionals. They had a reputation to uphold. Maybe if he had something to drink.
He jumped over the librarians desk and opened the fridge there. "tut tut, that's stealing Sammy." A crude gesture was all Dean got in response to his comment. Sam was to preoccupied for anything else. Dean watched his little brother for a while. He was worried. He knew this wouldn't be easy for Sam, but usually he didn't let things get to him this much. Even when they were investigating that carnival he hadn't been this bad. With a sigh Dean gave up on the magazine and dropped it back down onto the coffee table in front of him.
What the hell was that? Dean looked up into the gallery. He was sure he had seen something moving up there. And he could hear someone shuffling about. He stood up and removed the gun from the waist band of his jeans. Sam looked up at him questioning. He indicated to his little brother with his eyes and made his way towards the stairs.
Up on the gallery Dean searched for signs of life while Sam kept a look out down stairs. As he rounded one of the larger bookcases, Dean came across Pennywise. Sitting in one of the chairs looking at a newspaper was a tall white faced clown with large tufts of red hair and dark eyes. Pennywise sat up folding his newspaper and putting it down. As he stood up, Dean tracked the movement with his gun.
"Do you want a balloon Deano"
"Nah, I'm god thanks"
"They Float"
"I don't give a flying fuck"
"They all float"
Just then the door opened down stairs and Mike came in followed by five others. Dean looked down over the balcony, but when he looked back the clown was gone. Weird.
