"You too?" Dustin asked. "Yeah," Max said. The five friends were at school. It was their lunch time. "I told you. It is coming for all of us," Will said. "Mike, did you call that Hanlon guy?""

Yeah," Mike replied. "What did he say?" Will asked. "He said that It's weakness is silver," Mike said.

"It disappeared when Billy grabbed his knife," Max said. "What was the knife made of?" Lucas asked. "Silver," Max replied.

"That's it!" Mike exclaimed. "Eureka! If we go to the sewer grate with a silver knife, we could kill it!"

"But how are we going to get to the sewers without anyone finding out?" Lucas asked. "Well, Billy could help us. He was there when I saw It," Max said.

"Are you crazy?" Mike asked. "Your step brother almost killed Steve." "Don't worry. I got him to promise that he wouldn't hurt us. And I bet he'll be willing to help,. Also, that fight between him and Steve was two years ago" Max said. "Well, I don't think he will help us," Mike said.

After school, Billy went to pick up Max. He was surprised to see Max with her friends. "Billy, there's something we have to tell you about the clown. Dustin saw it too," Max said.

"I was on the phone with Mike Hanlon from Derry the day before. When he was a kid, he and his friends defeated the clown, who is apparently an alien named It, also known as Pennywise the Dancing Clown," Mike said. "It's weakness is silver."

"That's why It disappeared when you got your knife," Max said. "We need you to help us defeat this clown, and bring your knife."

Billy drove home with Max and her friends. "You guys wait here. I'll get the knife," Billy said.

After a few minutes, the five friends saw Billy get out of the house. Max saw her mom at the door.

"Hide," Max said to her friends. They ducked down to avoid being spotted. "I told you guys that Billy would help us," Max whispered to her friends. Billy opened the door and started the engine.

"Where are you guys?" Billy asked. "We're hiding from Mom," Max said. "Well, Mom closed the door, so you guys can come out now," Billy said.

The kids came out of their hiding places and chose their seats. Max sat in the front, Will, Mike, and Dustin sat in the middle row, and Lucas sat in the back.

"Did you get the knife?" Max asked Billy. "It's in my pocket," Billy replied. "Good. Now let's go to the sewers," Max said.

Billy pressed his foot on the accelerator and started driving. After 5 minutes, they got to the sewer grate.

Billy, Max, and the boys, got out of the car. "I got flashlights," Dustin said. Dustin got his backpack and grabbed 6 flashlights.

"Here, take one," Dustin said. The others took one flashlight each from Dustin's hand. Mike, Will, and Dustin crawled into the sewer grate, but Lucas, Max, and Billy stayed behind.

"This is so dirty," Mike said. "Shut up, Mike," Dustin said. "Just saying," Mike said.

"You guys okay?" Lucas asked. "No, this is the dirtiest place I've ever been in," Mike said.

"Besides that?" Lucas asked. "Besides that, we're good," Dustin said.

Dustin, Mike, and Will suddenly saw a red balloon in the air and a mysterious hand holding the balloon. The hand let go of the balloon and the balloon floated up, revealing the clown that Max, Billy, Dustin, and Mike had seen.

"You'll all float just like the rest of them," the clown said. "I wouldn't be so sure about that," Billy said, before grabbing his silver knife.

Billy ran to the clown and stabbed it in the throat. The clown let out an agonized scream. Billy pulled out the knife from the clown's throat, and to Billy's surprise, there wasn't a single drop of blood on the spot.

"What are you?" Billy asked, confused. The clown grabbed Billy's arm and opened its mouth to reveal razor-sharp rotten teeth.

The clown was about to bite Billy's arm, when fortunately for Billy, the clown was stabbed in the chest by a knife. Lucas and Max turned to their right to see five adults.

"Who are you guys?" Lucas asked "We're called the Losers Club," a man said. The man was black and tall.

"Well, well, well," the clown said, pulling the knife from its chest "If it isn't the Losers Club. Beverly, Billy boy, Haystack, Hanlon, and Tozier."

"Hanlon? As in Mike Hanlon?" Wheeler asked. "That's right," the black man said. "Well, you're not stopping me this time!" the clown exclaimed.

"I'd think again," a skinny black-haired man said. "We have 6 more people now."

"Seven, if you count that kid, Eleven," Hanlon said. "Not even that psychic girl can stop me," the clown said, laughing.

"You're underestimating El," Mike shouted. "I'll kill her and I'll kill all of you," the clown said. The clown jumped at the children, but Billy stabbed it in the chest with his knife and pulled out the knife.

"You'll float too," the clown said, before fading away. "We need to tell El," Mike said to his friends, "She could help us." "Who's El?" Billy asked
