do not make bad decisions to offset bad luck

[ Daisuke feels so thankful right now. When Chiyo is done, he slowly lets go of the doorknob. The barricade definitely holds the door when the clown seems to slam on it in an attempt to break it down. It gives Daisuke a jumpscare because it had stayed quiet for so long.

Anyway. ]

I'll just use one of these desks...

[ He grabs a free desk and tosses it out the window, making sure that it would land upside down on the water.

... It sinks. ]

[admiringly]

No....

[ Her heart sinks as the desk does. What else could possibly float in a classroom? ]

If only we had a lifesaver. Or like... balloons, but there's no way I want to ask the clown.

[sketchythief]

Yeah... that wouldn't be a good idea.

[ Daisuke turns to look at the hole. The clown is peeping right through it.
It's not doing anything else, but only staring through the hole. Its face has warped completely, with hollow black spaces where its eyes used to be and something looking like hands coming out of its mouth.

That's gross. Daisuke turns away and tries to cover Chiyo's line of sight by blocking the way and trying not to look too obvious. ]

What about... the window? It came off easily last time, didn't it? We can use it like a raft! ... Maybe.

[admiringly]

[ Chiyo's not the most observant, but she had been looking at the clown and trying hard not to scream. She smiles her gratitude at Daisuke and turns to the windows. She's determined to make one of Daisuke's plans work somehow. ]

It doesn't hurt to try.

[ She puts her hands on the edge of the windows and shoves. It comes off as easily as the other window, and Chiyo watches as it falls, praying it falls flat and stays afloat after hitting the water. ]

[ Luckily, it doesn't fling out into the beyond this time and lands right on the water's surface. It's floating! He's so glad that it didn't sink. ]

Okay... Now, we're going to jump and hope that we land on it.

[admiringly]

[ Chiyo's cheer dies in her throat, and she gulps, trying to swallow her fear. Somehow, she did not think through what it meant to float on the water. She knew what the points meant, but she didn't connect them. She's a fool. ]

O-Okay. Okay. We can do this. I can do this. I-I'll go first?

[ Despite saying that, she doesn't budge an inch. She's too scared to actually go first without some encouragement. ]

[sketchythief]

[ Now that he thinks about it, Daisuke feels like he put that way too lightly for Chiyo. Oops. ]

N-No way! I won't--

[ Before he can finish that sentence, the clown completely destroys the front door with all the desks in one fell swoop. It makes a very loud noise, which really tells Daisuke that they don't have much time. ]

We'll just go together! Take my hand!

[ He looks ready to jump out the window with one of his feet on the windowsill already. ]

[admiringly]

[ Instead of looking behind at the door, Chiyo grabs Daisuke's hand without a second's hesitation and climbs up onto the windowsill. Together is the best way. ]

Say when!

[ If they die, at least it won't be because they're starring in It. ]

[sketchythief]

Now!

[ He jumps with Chiyo. The view actually looks like nice after they jumped as if they're in momentary slow motion. However, a moment before they jumped, Chiyo could have definitely noticed that Daisuke's hair color was definitely a lot whiter than before.

Daisuke immediately disappears once they plunge into the ocean, fading into dust. What ever happened to the window? As if someone was playing a mean trick on them, it was nowhere near where they landed even though it was so obvious before that they could get there.

A giant whale with a single huge eye doesn't waste time in swallowing Chiyo whole once she's in the ocean. Before its mouth closes into complete darkness, a creepy giggle along with the sound of grinding knives is heard.

It's time to wake up, Chiyo. ]
