It had been a week since the black spot incident, the incident when you lost Rich. Things had been crazy since then, and now you, Ronnie, Lily and Will were trying to place the dagger into the old oak tree but it just..wasn’t working!
Dick turns around to see..the ghost of Rich? Rich’s ghost runs towards his friends, flipping Pennywise off as he did. He makes it over to his friends, using his hands to help them, help you push the dagger into where it needed to be to put the clown back to sleep for twenty seven years.
Rich’s funeral is beautiful, the sky free from clouds and the sun wore on everybody’s skin. Each important person to him makes a speech.
You go, but as you speak, you look up in the crowd to see… Rich? He’s looping his arms around his parents, who obviously can’t see him. His eyes widen as he realizes that you spot him and he smiles softly.
Once you finish your speech and everyone else leaves, you stay behind just to see if what you saw was real, that Rich’s ghost was there.
“Rich..?”
You call out, looking around the sunny graveyard to try to spot your friend. Your eye locks on Rich’s ghostly form, his body slightly transparent.
“Hey Cariño.”
