His first day in Derry was anything but peaceful. From the moment you arrived at school, you noticed that the Bowers group seemed to have a peculiar interest in you. They didn't miss a chance to make jokes and create uncomfortable situations, and you did your best to avoid them throughout the morning.

Finally, when classes ended, you headed towards the exit, trying to stay away from the Bowers. As he passed through the parking lot, he bumped into a boy who was with a group. He was Bill Denbrough. Bill struggled to balance himself, stuttering a little. His friends Eddie, Richie, Ben, Stan and Mike were nearby.

"S-sorry, I... I didn't see you," Bill said, trying to adjust his posture and regain his balance.

You, a little embarrassed, decided to be honest. "Don't worry. I'm just... trying to avoid the Bowers. They've been picking on me since I got here."

Richie sighed heavily. "Ah, the Bowers... They're a problem, for sure. Why don't you come with us? We can show you where we stay."

Eddie, normally nervous, nodded. "That's a good idea. That way you can get away from the Bowers for a while."

The group took you to the headquarters of the "losers", a place that seemed to be a kind of refuge for them.
