The Pit of Bottomless Evil

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

My heart pounded in my chest, as we drew closer and closer to the IT Pit. A large clown soul located in front of the entrance was absorbed into Rarity's gas rocket launcher. We stumbled onward to a shoe box size entrance that led into the IT pit, which made it impossible for any of us to enter. However, as we got closer, the tiny entrance suddenly expanded to our height, which revealed a wooden door to the IT pit. A series of translucent floating clowns charged out of the main entrance of the IT pit, and darted toward us. They were mowed down by Twilight's popcorn gun, as we paced to the main entrance of the pit.

A strait path made of wooden planks stood before us, as the walls that surrounded the wooden planks were completely pitch black. The girls trembled in nervousness, as we all felt an overwhelming evil presense swipe over us stronger than ever before. The narrow wooden plank path decsended downward, as we cautiously steeped onward. The path was completely cut off that led into a lower floor, which from above, we could see a small burning candle on a dirt floor. We dropped down in unison to the dirt floor of the pit, only to reveal a room that was god awfully disturbing to all of us.....

The walls....were made of clay with decaying clown heads that were embedded into the walls. It looks as if, the poor clown souls faced a horrible death before being casted into the walls of clay. Some of the facial expressions of the clowns were contorted and distraught. More candles lit up the horrid walls before us, as we followed a row of candles descending downward into the pit. We made our way halfway down the descending staircase, to the left which lead us into a small room with a Pennywise statue. I picked up the Pennywise statue with my right hand, and forcefully threw it into a wall, which made the clown statue splatter violently in gore and blood. We heard a painful scream bellow throughout the walls, from Pennywise himself....

We knew that we were getting closer. A series of bars moved downward at the base of the staircase.

We jogged into a curved pathway of the flustering clown walls, to reveal a small clay tribute room of stationary bloodied skulls, pillars of burning red candles, and fresh piles of human entrails skattered all over the floors. Some of the red candles floated in mid air, swaying upwards and downwards around the bloodied skulls. The human entrails lead us into a narrow corridor of decaying clown heads, where we persued onward into. We paced downward into a spirling pathway, deeper and deeper into the clay pit.

After 5 minutes of nauseously strolling downwards, all six of us stumbled into a dim clay pathway, with a right room and a left room down a small hall. The right room inside this hall, contained another uneasy sight for all of us. A hanging dark pink encrusted human silhouette, hung from a wall. A perimeter of red candles were neatly placed around the poor soul trapped inside the pink webbing. Another pink hanging human figure was located to a left room from us, where it looked like the human trapped inside effortlessly tried to escape from the pink encrusted cocoon. At the end of the hall, contained two red candles, to behold the largest clown monster we have ever seen on our journey together......

A humongous, 20 foot tall bowling pin clown bounced around withn a room with more human pink encrusted cucoons. This gave us a better look in detail, of what the smaller bowling pin clowns looked like. The thing attempted to hop toward us effortlessly, but with no luck since...we gazed in horror at the monster from inside a narrow clay hallway that it thankfully couldn't fit through. We would be swallowed hole if we even made an attempt to go inside the room with the monster, as its giant bloodied pirhana like teeth chattered to us, while blood flung outward from the bottom heart protrusion of the base of this abomination.

We backed away from the room of this giant monster, while I thought up a plan to take this thing down. Applejack and I had two crazy balls ready for use, that appeared in my mind as a idea to take down this thing. I told the group about how we can defeat this large monstrosity, that blocked our path to finding Pinkie Pie....

"Girls, I have an idea. Applejack, take out that crazy ball from your backpack....." I told Applejack while the girls intentionally listened.

"Sure thing sugarcube..." She responded, while she placed her gore grenade launcher on the ground as she reached in her backpack.

I remembered envisioning back in the first maze we stumbled opon, of that poster of the odd looking man with a crazy ball that floated in mid air around him. She gently placed the crazy ball onto my hands, while the ball vibrated and shook violently as I held it. The girls marched behind me, as I shuffled closer to the room with the giant clown monster waiting for us chattered more violently. I rolled the crazy ball like a bowling ball toward the giant monster with two hands, as we saw the true power of what the crazy ball could do.....

A series of clicking sound mechanisms activated inside the crazy ball, as it slowly rolled near the giant monster. A series of bright flashing lights, with molten party confetti sharpnel sprung out of the crazy ball in all directions. The monster retreated into a heart like shell, like you would see a turtle do if it was scared of a predator. The monster screamed in pain, as this was the chance to make our move into the room. We located a small pathway inside the pink cucoon room. After a good minute, the crazy ball detonated. The giant monster retreated out of its calloused heart shell and bounced toward us. Rarity was almost devoured as she launched herself foward into the next room with us. A clay wall with dusty clown heads collasped behind us, trapping the large bowling pin monster inside the room behind us indefinitely.

A translucent floating clown grumbled to our presense inside the new clay room from where we all stood. Twilight peppered the monster with her popcorn critters, as it imploded over near a small burning candle. The room contained a stream of the steaming multi colored fluid, which flowed into unknown territory. We followed the stream into a room containing a rotting clown head switch, surrounded by more human pink encrusted cocoons with more floating red candles. This activated a series of burning clown heads along with more floating translucent floating clowns. Rarity took the group out with a volley of gas rockets.

After the gas dissipated in the stagnant air around us, we ventured into the room where the clowns emerged from. More clown souls and ammunition for our weapons awaited for us, as there was nothing else of much use for us in there. We were forced to retrace our steps backwards into the crumbled clay pathway of the large, bowling pin clown.

The clay blockaid cleared itself due to the abomination chomping a small opening to try to reach us. Smaller bowling pin clowns charged from the room containing the giant bowling pin clown. Fluttershy took out the advancing little monsters with her 10/22, as Dash unloaded a full magazine into the giant bowling pin clown. As the giant clown retreated again into the calloused heart shell, we ducked underneathe the small opening and dashed to the right of the cucoon room. It contained a perimeter of floating candles around a wooden well. The giant monster pursued behind us, as we were forced to jump inward inside the mysterious well....

We floated down into the main area of the IT pit, which was located inside the heart of the clown realm. A million screaming imprisoned clown souls filled the air around us, while we lifted our feet in low gravity, to land on a series of platforms. The largest demonic floating balloon we ever seen, slowly shifted to us while we froze in horror.

This ballon was unique looking compared to all of the other demonic balloons we encounters. Its right eye located on the red surface, was fuzed together as if someone crudely melted it's eyelids shut together. Its left eye shifted sideways on the surface of it's grotesque looking appearance. The mouth lifelessly gaped opened, with a row of decaying teeth and molded tounge lodged in the back of it's throat. The projectiles and rounds we shot at it.....did nothing as it slowly shifted onward to us. I panicked as I shouted a plan to the girls, who painstakingly fired more useless projectiles, as the humongous monster's rubber skin deflected the projectiles.

"Girls! Float right behind me! We're going to have to make a run from this thing!" I hollered to the group, while I shifted my body up, landing onto platform after platform in the dim abyss. A giant Pennywise wall with a gaping mouth, spewed hundreds of red smiley balloons toward us. I tossed grenade after grenade, trailing behind us as the colorful sharpnel stuck dozens of smiley balloons. We landed onto a final platform to the left, which lead into a colorful curved hallway of stripes with a yellow background. The hallway ended in a red tinted room with two crazy balls, blocked by the unpassable steaming multicolored fluid. In the base of the fluid inside the room, stood a circular perimeter of pillars with candles, with a pitch black hole dead center. A series of tortured clown souls floated upward into the hardened intestine ceiling. The souls grimanced hollow facial features. Fluttershy and Dash flew over the steaming liquid, to shoulder their weapons and grabbed the crazy balls with their hooves.

They regrouped as we continued out of the room. The humogous demonic balloon slowly shifted toward us yet again. We darted to the right of the Pennwise wall, into a small ascending pathway of rotted clown clay platforms. The unique demonic balloon vanished back into the black abyss, as it conceded from it's search to find us. A new series of interconnection clay rotting clown platforms curved onward into the black abyss. We can sense that we were getting closer to Pinkie Pie. Our giant humogous foe appeared from the right of the platform once more, as the girls trailed in low gravity following my path. A familiar soulsphere floated towards us. Applejack lifted the flap from her backpack to place it in.

At the end of the path, contained a series of gigantic ascending steps illuminated with red candles. We trailed from step to step pursuing upwards. A large rotted clown textured platform was in location of the top of the giant steps, while a large balcony of a crudely made flat floating pentagram with hovering candles.......contained Pinkie Pie weeping in the center mass of the structure. Her body was deteriorating from the lack of sleep and deprived nutrients. You could clearly see her skeletal stucture though her thin layer of skin. She looked extremely.....gaunt and starved. The girls shouted in anguish as they rushed over to help her.

"Pinkie! Oh sweet Celestia, Ryan! She's dying!" Twilight shouted in distress over to me, as all of the girls panicked in unison. A million thoughts raced through my head, until an idea emerged to save Pinkie Pie......

I thought about the soulsphere in Applejack's backback. I hastily opened the flap on the backpack, and charged over to Pinkie Pie's deprived twitching body. The soulsphere collided into her body, filling the crevases of her skin as it morphed back into a healthy plump pink. Her body mass started to regenerate once again back to her healthy normal figure, as she became conscience to our presense there. She sprung up from the floating pentagram island, and pursued to hug her friends. Her friends group hugged her as she returned to normal once again.

"Hey guys! Whew! Thanks for saving me! Oh Celestia.....

Pennywise was horrible to me.....He kept feasting on my energy in order for him to survive. I was trapped inside this gooey, sticky pink stuff where I couldn't move a single muscle. Thank Celestia that you guys are here......

Oh No....."

Pinkie Pie looked in distress, as the life from her energetic face drained from color as she looked from behind us.

A balloon texture wall opened up as we drew nearer to Pinkie, that we chose to ignore, revealed a pink fleshy encased room.

Inside one of the walls, emerged Pennywise the Dancing Clown, that evolved into a 20 foot tall giant suddenly before our eyes. He bellowed in anger toward us with pure hatred.

"You little shitheads! You've ruined everything! Now...I shall feast on your souls!" He bellowed aloud, that rattled the island platform like an earthquake. He stomped forward to consume us all.....

"Fluttershy! Dash! The crazy balls!" I shouted to the horrified gazed girls, while their survival switches activated inside their heads to snap out of their trance.

Fluttershy and Dash lifted the crazy balls over their heads and hurled them over to the feet of Pennywise. Waves of colorful sharpnel sparked in all directions. Pennywise launched a stary projectile directly towards me. The projectile hit me dead center of my chest, flying me backwards in low gravity as I almost trampled into the black abyss below....

Fluttershy caught me in mid air, while Pennywise shrieked in agonizing pain from the crazy ball's spewing molten hot confetti. The balls deflated, as less confetti slowly shot into the air around Pennywise. The balls transformed into a steaming black mass. Pennywise uncovered his arm from over his eyes and pursued toward us in bloodied rags of a clown suit. We unleased hell from our weapons, as Pennywise was severly weakened from the two crazy balls. My M16s bolt locked open, as the other girl's weapons became depleted as well. After the gas from Rarity's launcher cleared, we could see our antagonist trembling in weakness.

Pennywise stumbled onto the ground, as I shot his legs out with my M16A1. The rounds severed the width of his legs. He fell inwards face planting into the rotted clown clay ground floor. He puked out large chunks of rotten flesh with a waterfall of blood. He drifted his head upward to us, as he supported his weak body with his two arms....

"Ugh, how could this be?

You fools....

I am eternal....

I am Immortal.....

You cannot kill true evil......I will continue to terrorize you all in your dreams. Im your worst nightmare...come true! I will feast on your souls, as you all perish into dust....." His body began to dematerialize. I reached in my backpack to unreveal the Colt 1911, and handed it over to Pinkie Pie.

Pinkie Pie pressed the end of the barrel onto Pennywise's temple, where he was too weak to resist or to fight back. I glanced over to Pinkie, and asked for any final words.

"Any last words, Pinkie?" I asked Pinkie Pie, where the hammer of the 1911 cocked slowly backwards to strike the firing pin, as Pinkie slowly squeezed on the trigger.

"Yeah...Party's Over!" She jerked the trigger which struck the firing pin inside the 1911.

A large fireball blast from the 1911's muzzle singed Pennywises deteriorating red wirey hair. A single .45 ACP round tumbled inside the encased clown skull of Pennywise, leaving a grapefruit sized hole on the other side of his skull. Dark brainmatter with the addition of multicolored fleshy gore flung out from out of his head onto the rotting clown clay floor. A thousand escaping clown souls rushed and floated outward from Pennywises body, while they whispered and floating upwards into the sky.The souls whispered thankfully for their release from the wretched monster. They vanished into thin air, as our enviorment remained unchanged inside the clown realm. The clown realm abyss still contained the hollow breeze of the void, as we floated downward from the platforms with Pinkie.

We retraced our steps, from the long narrow clay pathway all the way back onto the triagular platforms, which lead us into a swirling green vortex on a circular island, surrounded by a circular formation of candles. Piles of gore and gibblets rematerialized and exploded from thin air, which made us jump slightly. All in unison, we connected our arms together, to step into the green portal....for the last and final time during this long journey together.....
