Here we go!
Like I promised!
My side story to my diary!
FYI, these chapters are going to be much shorter than my entries; hence the title.
In my first short, Ruby and Yang are going to react to a movie trailer based on one of Stephen King's best novels!
An early shout out to Halloween, baby!
September 8th, 2017
3pm
"No! No! No!" Weiss repeatedly shouted.
"Ah c'mon, Weiss! The thumbnail is just a clown! Don't tell me your scared of clowns," Yang teased. She, her sister Ruby, and Weiss were in the living room. Yang and Ruby were on the couch, while Weiss was standing behind them. They were looking through some YouTube videos on Jared's iPad, when suddenly they noticed a video that featured a clown; with most of his face being covered by a red balloon. Weiss was suspicious, since the clown wasn't smiling at all.
"Yang, that has nothing to do with this! Look at it more closely! Don't you see anything weird about that clown!?" Weiss pointed at the screen.
"I don't see anything weird about clowns," Ruby joined in.
"If my sister says that, then I agree with her," Yang replied.
"Besides Weiss, the title of the video is just one word. How can that word be weird. This could be a funny video, like those Lets Plays Jared watches," Ruby added to the argument.
All Weiss was groan. "You know what, I don't have time for this," she then began walking towards the old basement down below where Pyrrha was, "If you two go screaming or whatever, don't blame it on me."
Once Weiss was gone, Ruby sighed, "Oh, well. It would've been more fun to have her join us."
"At least, you got me, sis," Yang reassured.
"Yah, I know," Ruby smiled.
"Well, what are waiting for!? Lets start the video!" Yang shouted.
With no second to spare, Ruby pressed play.
XXXXXXXXXXX
The video begins with a pair of hands folding a piece of paper.
"So it's starts off with someone making something," Yang said.
"I wonder what it is?" Ruby asked herself, as the logos of the film studios passed.
They then see the person, later revealed to be a boy, writing down the words "S.S. Georgie" on the folded paper.
The next shot shows the boy, inside his bedroom, handing the now paper boat to a younger boy.
"Here ya go. She's all ready, captain," the boy says.
"Thanks, Billy," the younger boy, now revealed to be the older boy's brother, hugs him.
"Aww," Ruby and Yang cooed.
"That is so sweet," Ruby added.
The next shot shows the younger boy, possibly named Georgie, heading outside on a rainy day, while wearing a yellow rain coat. He puts his paper boat on a small stream on water on the side of the road. Georgie then follows the paper boat, as it floats through the stream. But, as he continues to follow his paper boat, he is not aware of the 'street closed' sign in front of him. And just as expected, he hits the sign head on, making him fall down.
Ruby and Yang cringed a bit.
"That had to hurt," Yang said.
Georgie gets back up, and notices his paper boat starting to head towards a sewer drain. Georgie begins running towards the boat, before it can float down into the sewers.
"Oh no!" Ruby shouted, noticing as well.
"NO!" Georgie shouts.
But, it was too late. Before he could reach it, his paper boat dropped down into the sewers.
"Nooooo...," Georgie said, finally catching up.
He then looks down into the drain, to see if he can find his paper boat. But, suddenly, out of nowhere, something pops up from the drain, surprising Georgie.
The screen darkens.
Even Ruby and Yang were a bit spooked. "What was that?" Ruby asked, since she couldn't tell what popped up from the sewers.
"I don't know," Yang answered. She couldn't tell, either.
From Stephen King's Terrifying Novel
"Whoa, whoa, wait? This is a trailer to a scary movie?" Yang asked.
"I'm confused. How can this be a scary movie? There was a clown in the thumbnail, right? Clowns aren't scary," Ruby asked. Yang agreed by nodding back.
The next shot shows a town, followed by a group of kids riding on bikes.
"Derry's not like any town I've ever been in before," a voice of a boy is heard. Along with the boy's voice in the background, the next shot shows a few kids sitting by a car.
"People have died, or disappeared, six times the national average," the same voice is heard, along with two new shots; one showing kids entering or leaving a school building, and the other showing a woman putting up a missing poster of a boy on a telephone pole.
"Six times more?" Yang said, a bit surprised.
"Is this movie based off on a Grimm?" Ruby asked, still confused.
"And that's just grown ups. Kids are worst," the voice then added.
The screen darkens again.
This shocked Yang and Ruby, even more.
"Scratch Grimm, Ruby. This could be something even worse," Yang frowned.
The next shot shows a boy, in the library, turning around and noticing a red balloon floating across the room. No one else in the room notice this.
The screen darkens again, this time with a dark childish voice.
"We all float down here."
Yang and Ruby frowned completely when they heard that voice. They never thought a sentence like that would be so creepy.
"Uh,... What is this?" Ruby said.
The next shot shows a small group of kids entering the sewers. One of them is holding a flashlight, since the sewers were dark. They then traverse into the sewers.
"I saw something. There was this-" a boy, who the sisters quickly recognize as Bill, is seen talking to his friends. Before he could finish, he was cut off by one of them.
"-clown," his friend finishes, the shot showing him and another friend of theirs on bikes.
"I knew it! This clown does has something to do with the movie!" Ruby said.
"Yah,... but what though?" Yang questioned.
The next shot shows the kids staring at a creepy old house.
The trailer returns back to the last shot, this time the kids were looking at their friend.
"Yah, I saw it too," their friend continues.
The next shot shows the same group of kids from earlier inside the house. A projector was set up in front of them; showing old pictures, a few of them a map of the town.
"Look," Bill points towards the current picture, "It's all connected by the sewers. That's where 'IT' lives."
This results in one of his friends trying to control himself from panicking.
"It," Ruby figured out what they were talking about. "That must be the cause of the disappearances in the movie. But, who is 'it'?"
Suddenly, the projector begins to move by itself, confusing the kids. The projector moves from each picture, until it shows a picture of a family; but centered on the woman, her hair covering her face. The projector moves faster and faster, making the picture now move like a flip book. The kids are frightened by what they see on the woman; her hair slowly uncovering her face.
"TURN IT OFF!" the only girl in the group screams. One of the boys pulls the plug, but the projector still keeps working. Right before the scene could change, the woman's face is barely revealed.
"Uhhh... Yang?" Ruby was now spooked out by this video.
Yang did not responded, as she continued staring at the screen.
Even though they want to stop the video right now, both of them were curious on what would happen next.
This September.
The next shot shows one of the boys running from something hideous.
The next shot shows one of the other boys running across a stream.
The next shot shows a different boy walking towards a red balloon floating in the air.
What...
A part of the group cowers in fear, as an unidentifiable creature, whose hand is morphing into something worse, slowly approaches the trio.
Are...
An African American boy slowly backs away from a door, as bloodied burning hands begin to crawl around the side.
You...
The girl from the group, is suddenly thrusted into a sink, where black goo spurts out and covers her face.
Another shot shows a clown, the same one in the thumbnail, with a red balloon. The balloon floats upwards; which uncovers the clown's face.
...afraid of?
The next shot shows Bill, surprised, looking at something. It shortly reveals his little brother Georgie, wearing the same yellow coat and holding the string of a red balloon.
"Georgie...," Ruby and Yang whisper in fear. They were a bit shaken by what they saw so far.
"Bill,... if you come with me, you'll float too," Georgie. But Bill doesn't respond, as if he's traumatized by what he's seeing.
"You'll float, too. You'll float, too. You'll float, too," every time Georgie says those words, it becomes much more creepier. He even begins to maniacally laugh, as he keeps continuing.
This creeps Ruby and Yang out, even more.
They wanted this video to end, right now. And, they did get their end.
Not without a jump scare.
"YOU'LL FLOAT TOO!" Georgie violently screams.
And as he says this, a face of a clown slowly comes out of the water; it's eyes sinisterly glowing like a demon.
There was nothing that Bill could do, as he froze with fear.
And then, IT screamed.
"RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Ruby and Yang screamed.
A few moments later, Weiss and Pyrrha from downstairs, and Blake from upstairs, quickly arrived at the scene. They noticed their friends holding each other, shivering in fear.
While Blake and Pyrrha were wondering what happen, Weiss was completely annoyed by her partner's actions. She knew something was wrong with that video!
Before she could yell at the two for their curiosity, Jared Lyman, who just came back from school, had also arrived on the scene.
"Alright, what did you gals do this time?" he asked, my arms crossed.
As soon as she heard his voice, Ruby ran up to him, tighten her arms around his waist, and buried her head in his chest.
The girls, including Yang, barely noticed a blush appearing on Jared's cheeks.
"OhJareditwashorrible! Therewassomuchthatwaswrong! Ithoughtitwasafunnyvideo! Butitwassowrong!" Ruby shouted; tears now appearing at the corner of her eyes.
Jared looks down at her, confused of what she said. He then looks back at the rest of the girls and raises an eyebrow.
Thankfully, Weiss caught on what he meant. "These two dolts found a video on... Y-YouTube-" she stutters a bit for pronouncing the famous video website/app that was YouTube, "-which they thought was a casual video talking about one word. But instead, it was a trailer of a scary horror movie. I tried to stop them, but they didn't listen to me."
"Did the thumbnail of that video showed a clown covering his face with a red balloon?" Jared asks, now dumbfounded.
"Yes," Weiss, Blake, and Pyrrha all replied.
Jared sighs, "Damn IT."
Suddenly, Blake chuckles; making everyone look at her.
"What's so funny?" Pyrrha said.
"I think I know what they really watched. Good joke, by the way," Blake complimented Jared.
Jared actually felt surprised, and also good, by her comment.
While, Yang...
"Ah, c'mon! You laugh at his jokes, and you don't laugh at mine!?"
