The Clownwich Horror

Aaron was running around a city that he didn’t recognize. The place was both foreign and familiar to him at the same time not that that really mattered to him right now, because he was being chased by something truly terrifying. Now far behind him were thousands of clowns.

Occasionally Aaron would throw a lightning blast back towards the mob of heinous clowns not that it did much to slow them down.

“How can people possibly think these things are funny,” Aaron screamed as he continued running aimless through the misty city that he could not place.

Aaron could not seem to lose them or outpace them but they did seem to be slowly but surely catching up to him.

	Hmmm, now this was... different. He'd heard of people terrified by clowns, but hadn't actually run into it before. Only one way to handle this - put things in their natural order. He calmly walks past the fleeing Aaron, and opens a car door. "How many of you do you think can fit in there?" he asks the approaching horde. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	When Aaron next turned around to look at the mob of clowns were pouring into a car. At the sight of this Aaron stopped and cautiously moved closer to get a better look at the situation. “Lucas what are you doing here and why aren’t dressed like a clown like everyone else,” asked a very confused Aaron.

	"Because I'm not a clown. And neither is everyone else. Just these people who seem to have escaped from the circus. We should help them find it, don't you think?" he asks, before looking back to the clowns, smirking disdainfully. "You're not trying very hard. I bet you can't all fit in the car."

“Um, okay,” said a still confused Aaron who had just decided to go with it.

Most of the clowns were now in the car at this time and the rest were on the way in.

“So do you have any idea where to send these guys so they can get back to where they came from because I don’t know my way around here” ask Aaron earnestly as he got closer to Lucas and the very full looking car.

	He shakes his head. "I don't, and neither do they. I bet the poor things are at least as scared as you are. Where do clowns belong, Aaron? Everything has its natural place, even clowns. And they're too packed in to drive. We'll have to help them." Refuge in audacity though it may be, it seems to be working. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

“Away,” said a clueless Aaron unable to think of any places that clowns belonged.

Then as the last of the clowns pour into the car it exploded and from the mangled wreckage Clownzilla appeared.

Aaron stumbled backwards in terror of the giant clown, so terrified that he could not he could not even crawl backwards. He just sat there on the ground eyes wide and mouth wide open.

	Lucas glances up at the clown, non-plussed. "Where's the circus, Aaron? It doesn't belong out here. You're going to have to help it get home." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Coming out of shock Aaron said, “Maybe the park or the civic center but I don’t know were either of those places are, come to think about it I don’t even know where here is.” Aaron still could not force himself to move looking at the terrifying thing standing over him.

	Lucas nods, stepping back and offering a hand to Aaron. He can't do it for him, much as he might like to. "Come on then, go what feels like the right direction. Its like the car, it'll go where it belongs if you let it, and stay there. It doesn't belong out here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-01-15 04:13 am UTC (link)
	“Ok” says Aaron slowly getting up as if in a trance. Following what seemed to be the right direction Aaron walked past the giant clown and with that the clown started to shrink behind Aaron as he continued down the empty road towards wherever he was supposed to go. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lucas did his best to help as long as Aaron kept moving. The point was to remove helplessness, give him a purpose and direction, and then make him execute on those actions himself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Aaron kept walking till he got to the place he felt he was supposed to be. He was now standing in the middle of a park with a carnival set up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lucas looks about the place. "There you go. Out of curiosity, where did you begin being afraid of clowns?" That information might help. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“Well I never really liked them but I guess it came from that show Are You Afraid of the Dark? And the movie IT,” says Aaron looking around where he now was, “Why?” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Because sometimes context is everything." he replies, looking around the carnival, and doing what he can to manipulate details with what's about the carnival, and manipulating the dream ether.
The place gets better lit, with a definite spotlight on the ring, well away from Aaron, and he tosses a unicycle and bunch of brightly colored balls into the center of the ring.
"I haven't seen the show, but I know of the movie, and taking clowns out of context. They still have their proper place, they're usually not out to eat people, despite evidence to the contrary here."

	“I suppose your right, but I still don’t like clowns,” said Aaron. Seeing the carnival become brighter Aaron looked around to get a better sense of his surroundings. It was then that Aaron noticed in the distance the ring with the spotlight and Aaron just stared at it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You don't have to like them, but they're nothing to be afraid of. Most of them tend to prefer the big top and carnival rings to cannibalism. That one, just needs to go where it belongs. Keep things in context." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“Ok,” says Aaron as he starts walking the long way to the ring with the spotlight. As Aaron started getting closer to the ring he notices the unicycle and the ton of bright colorful balls. Aaron couldn’t but wonder what was going to happen once he got there which wouldn’t be long now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lucas can't do much more than watch now. This is up to Aaron and his subconscious, and how much he's willing to trust in the assessment of context. He does create, and tosses Aaron a ringmaster's hat. "Long as you focus on things being what they should be, in context, you're in charge. There's nothing to be afraid of." (Reply to this)(Parent)
