When Emmett tried to launch an attack on the giant Pennywise, who was scaring the kids crawling towards them, his fist was about to hit Pennywise, but the clown disappeared before Emmett's attack could connect.
After hearing Jojo's warning, Emmett nodded his head with a serious expression, his smile fading when he heard a growling sound behind him.
"Grr... Grrrr..."
When Emmett turned around, he saw a grey bear with a cut mark on its left eye growling at him.
Emmett felt an intense killing intent from the bear, his face filled with shock as he took a few steps back.
"How is this possible?" Emmett said, looking at the bear with a trace of fear in his eyes.
The bear suddenly lunged at Emmett, who stood frozen, staring at the bear in front of him.
"It's fake, snap out of it!" Jojo pulled Emmett out of his shock from the attack.
"Thanks, bruh..." Emmett said without taking his eyes off the bear.
Jess, who saw Emmett's situation, came between Emmett and the bear.
"What happened, Emmett?" Jess asked worriedly while maintaining her vigilance.
"It's his fear," Carlisle answered, shocking the other Cullens except Esme, who already knew about Emmett's fear.
"The bear you're looking at is the one who almost killed Emmett when he was human," Esme explained with a worried face.
"I am fine. Looks like I really underestimated our opponent," Emmett said with an embarrassed look on his face.
Jess was really angry looking at the condition Emmett ended up in.
She glared at Pennywise, who was in the form of a bear. Just as she was about to make a move, Jasper started to scream, holding his ears.
"I can't take it. It's too much!" Jasper shouted with an ugly expression. He was shaking from head to toe due to the intense emotion he felt.
When everyone shifted their gaze towards Jasper, the wolf disappeared into the walls.
"Do you like this poor clown's present? Ge... Gege... Gegege..." Pennywise started to giggle, releasing the intense emotions of the victims he had.
Suddenly, a balloon appeared out of nowhere and started to move towards Richie slowly.
Richie, who was tightly pressed against the wall in fear, looked at the balloon in front of him with terror.
He didn't know what to do; he was too afraid to move, fearing that any movement would result in his death.
While this was happening, Jojo shouted, "Everyone, get a hold of yourselves!" as he looked at the balloon.
Even though Jojo had warned the Cullens many times, they didn't expect Pennywise to be this powerful.
Even Jojo was surprised to see this scene in front of him.
He knew that in the movie, they had severely nerfed Pennywise's powers, but he didn't expect Pennywise to handle the Cullens with such ease, just like any other humans.
Jojo planned to make the Cullens confront Pennywise because, based on his interaction with them, they seemed to not fully believe what he said, except for Esme, Carlisle, Rosalie, and Alice.
The others seemed a little too full of themselves.
The balloon that moved towards Richie's face suddenly burst, scaring him to the core. Richie wet his pants and screamed in fear, tears streaming down his face.
"Dear, what are you doing here?" Eddie heard his mother's voice from nowhere.
"Mo... Mother," Eddie stammered, looking around in fear.
Observing this scene, Jojo sighed, narrowed his eyes, and cleared his throat.
"Look, I'll give you three seconds to come before me," Jojo said, trying to divert Pennywise's attention to him.
"Oh, you're the first one to call my name in a very long time," Pennywise giggled and appeared behind Jojo with a smirk on his face.
Pennywise extended his finger and nails, his mouth opening to reveal sharp teeth as he stared at Jojo with a salivating mouth.
Rosalie noticed Pennywise behind Jojo, staring intently at him, trying to sneak up on Jojo.
"Jojo, loo..." Before Rosalie could react, Pennywise made his move towards Jojo's heart, a grin on his face.
Pennywise's hand was about to strike Jojo's back when Jojo suddenly disappeared from his position.
Pennywise's eyes widened as he witnessed Jojo's speed.
"EXCUSE ME," Jojo's voice echoed deeply from behind Pennywise.
When Pennywise turned around to take a look, his face turned ugly.
Jojo, with half of his face turned into a blazing skull, looked at Pennywise with a smirk on one half of his face.
"What... How did you escape when I put you through an illusion?" Pennywise asked Jojo, a look of disbelief on his face.
"OH... IF YOU HAD INFORMED ME BEFOREHAND, I MIGHT HAVE PAID ATTENTION TO IT," Jojo mocked Pennywise, his remaining face blazing as a skull.
After a few seconds, Pennywise started to giggle, looking at Jojo's Ghost Rider form with interest.
Seeing the kids panic, Alice went near them to comfort them.
"Don't worry, kids. Jojo will take care of that clown," Alice said with a reassuring smile.
"My mother already warned me not to be friends with these idiots, but I should have listened to her," Eddie said while putting his medicine into his machine and swallowing it.
He took deep breaths to calm himself.
"I don't care, just take that thing out of here!" Richie screamed in fear, tears streaming down his face.
"You're not human, are you? I'll give you a chance to join me. If we break the unforgivable seal together, we'll gain power far surpassing what we have. The world will be full of fear,"
Pennywise said, drooling at the thought of a world filled with fear.
"Idiot! Can't he see who is standing before him?" Carlisle snorted,
while the other Cullens smirked at the poor clown who was unwittingly giving away precious information even before Jojo started his torture.
"HMM... BUT I REFUSE," Jojo looked at Pennywise with indifference.
Pennywise started to laugh loudly and regarded Jojo as a toy he was about to play with.
"Then, don't be offended," Pennywise said with a slight bow.
