Chapter 12

In the beginning of this chapter Bev's ex-husband went to Bev's friends house to ask her where Bev had went, and he wasn't afraid to use force. When the poor girl had opened the door he just decked her right in the face. She screamed and ran away, and he chased he to the back of her house where he threw her on the floor and jumped on top of her. He grabbed a vase and broke it and waved it in her face and asked her where Bev was. She told him that Bev had gone back to Derry for a promise that she had made with her friends a long time ago. Bev's husband waved the vase in Bev's friend's face again and told her, if she told the police that he had been to her house he would come back and kill her.
Henry Bowers lay awake in his cot in the insane asylum in Augusta. He was talking to the moon, and the moon started talking back! The clowns face appeared in the moon and told Henry that he had to kill the people that had returned to Derry. Henry told him that he couldn't get out of the asylum, but the clown said he would send help. Later that night Henry heard some creaking under the bed. Out from under the bed came his old friend Belch. Henry noticed he was still wearing the same pair of jeans he was wearing on the day he died in 1958 (The year was 1985 now) He gave Henry a switch blade and told Henry that he would take care of the guard so Henry could get out. Henry got up from his bed and started walking toward the door. Another inmate, who had killed his mom, woke up and saw his mother walking with Henry towards the door. He started screaming and freaking out. The guard came running into the room yelling at everyone to be quiet and what he saw would've scared him to death if it hadn't killed him so quick anyway. It was in its clown suit but it had on a doberman pincher head, the only dog that the guard was afraid of.
Bill's wife, Audra got on a plane against Bill's wishes and flew to Derry to see if Bill was alright. She told her boss that she was leaving and got on the next intercontinental flight from London to Bangor, Maine. She stayed in the motel right next to the one that Bev's husband was staying at. They parked right in front of one another.
This is getting very exciting. I like this book a lot better than the movie. Its cool to see what the characters are thinking not just what they are doing like on the movie screen.
