July 9th, 1986 Derry, Maine
Your POV:

"Bill? Where are you?" I call. I had been here for almost an hour and it was gonna rain soon.

"Stop fucking with me or I'll go home right now!" I yelled, still no reply.

"Maybe Richie was right about you after all..." I mumble walking down the steps.

"S-sorry I was late, b-but let's g-go inside." He stutters, taking my hand.

As soon as we get through the door, we can hear commotion outside.

"Y/n! What hell are you doing? Get away from that thing!" Richie shouts.

"Come on, Y/n let's leave them." Bill said

"Y/n—"

"I get you want to protect me but I'm not fragile I can handle myself and Bill is here too."

"Y/n that's not Bill—" Will yells as 'Bill's' grip gets tighter and the door slams shut.

"They're lying! They don't want to save Georgie! Let's go!" Bill tells me.

"Let me go, your hurting me!" I yelled as my arm turned red.

"No!" Bill's voice was more angry and demonic. His body contorted but still his arm pinned me down on to the ground.

A red button covered his nose and his face went white, literally. Then he started to laugh uncontrollably, throwing his head back. His face met mine and I realized this was no longer Bill. It wasn't Bill at all, it was the clown.

It's mouth opened up as three golden lights spun in a circle.

I felt paralyzed.

I couldn't move.

I couldn't talk.

I couldn't even breathe.

I felt like my head was under water.

Sound drowned out.

But lights were so much more

They were beautiful.

"Princess..." My dad said. I turned around and he looked much happier. It was like before he started drinking, when he loved me.

Then I felt a swoosh near my leg, a younger me ran to him as he picked me up spinning me around.

"Daddy!" Little me giggled

"Ahh that's my little girl. Are we gonna read tonight?" He asked as I nodded.

"This one! This one!" I already knew the book.

"The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz,"

My favorite story as a kid.

A girl who gets caught in a storm, travels to a new world. All she wants is to go home, but she has to journey across a mystical land to make a wish. She makes new friends along the way and finds out that she had the power inside herself all along.

"The end, now remember you have power inside yourself too." He added kissing me goodnight. He walks past me but I latch on to his arm.

"I love you dad." I whisper, he hugs me.

"I love yo-" He started before I feel a stabbing pain in my side and I fall from his hold, falling endlessly.

"No! You can't leave me!" I screamed. The pain intensified, as everything came to a halt.

"Come on Y/n wake up!" Will yelled.

The voice was faint but I could hear it still.

"I can't lose you again...I love you!" He said as I mustered the stamina to open my eyes...

"Will?"
