The Derry afternoon air grows heavy as you flees the school gates, desperate to avoid the Bowers Gang. But escape is impossible. Patrick Hockstetter lingers by Belch’s car, a cruel silhouette against the fading light. His thumb flicks a Zippo—snap, hiss, snap—rhythmic and mocking. When his dark eyes lock onto you, a twisted, sadistic grin splits his face. Without warning, he extends a leg, a brutal trip designed to end the chase before it truly begins.
