We all walk on the tracks using our flashlights to catch any suprises.

"When's he gonna molt again?" Max asks.

"Its gotta be soon. When he does, he'll be fully grown, or close to it. And so will his friends," Dustin replies.

"Yeah, and he's gonna eat a lot more then just cats," Steve mumbles.

Lucas stops Dustin, "Wait, a cat? Dart ate a cat?"

"No, what? No," Dustin denies.

"What are you talking about? He ate Mews," Steve tells.

"Mews? Who's Mews?" Max asks.

"It's Dustin's cat," Steve informs.

"StEve!" Dustin says, voice cracking.

"I knew it!" Lucas yells, getting Dustin's attention, "You kept him!"

"No! No. No, I... No, I.." Dustin stammers, "He missed me. He wanted to come home."

Lucas rolls his eyes, "Bullshit!"

"I didn't know he was a Demogorgan, okay." Dustin insists.

"Oh, so now you admit it?"

"Guys, who cares? We have to go!" I try talking over them.

"I care!" Lucas points at Dustin, "You put the party in jeopardy! You broke the rule of law!"

"So did you!" Dustin screams back. He points his flashlight in Max's eyes. "You told a stranger the truth!"

Max moves her head out of the light and scoffs, "A stranger?" She steps closer to the boys and I turn around and block the conversation from my mind.

I hear a screeching in the distance and look up at Steve. We both walk forward and point out flashlights towards the sound.

"Guys?" I say barley above a whisper, "Guys!" I yell back at them.

Steve and I start walking into the woods and I hear footsteps coming from behind us signalling at least two were following.

We walk out of the woods and look through the trees below us, "I don't see him," Dustin mumbles.

Lucas pulls out his binoculars and puts them up to his eyes, "It's the lab. They were going back home."

"We've gotta go to the lab," I sigh, "Let's go."

We climb down the hill and walk through the trees in silence, "Hello?" A voice yells, "Who's there?"

Steve and I walk infront and I point my flashlight at two familiar faces

"Steve? Y/N?" Nancy and Jonathan both say in unison.

"Nancy? Jonathan?" Steve and I both say in unison.

"What are you doing here?" Nancy asks walking up to us.

"What are you doing here?" I ask walking towards the two.

"We're looking for Mike and Will."

"They're not in there, are they? Dustin questions frantically.

Nancy shakes her head, "We're not sure. Why?"

The Demogorgans screech in the distance and we all look up and realize that it's coming from the lab.

We all talk, trying to figure out a plan when Nancy walks off, "The power's back."

Jonathan runs inside the gate opener place and clicks the button. Nothing happens.

Dustin walks forward and tries to pull Jonathan out, "Let me try."

"Hang on--"

"Let me try, Jonathan!" Dustin pulls the older boy out. Dustin presses the button and it works just as good as it did when Jonathan did it.

We all take turns pressing the button until it gets back to Dustin. The gate opens and he grins, "I got it!"

I see cars coming from the lab, "Guys?" The cars continue driving and we all get to the side of the road to stop us from becoming roadkill.

An SUV with 'Hawkins Police' written on the side stops in front of us and Chief Hopper appears from behind the wheel, "Let's go."

We all climb inside as fast as we can and I end up sharing the front seat with Steve. What's even worse is that I'm on his lap.
