Everything was blank. Everything that had just happened, from the field to getting to the lab, to Will screaming. Everything was just blank inside of Chris's head. Chris was in the room when Will got there, but he didn't do anything. He just stood there, frozen in shock not doing anything. But everything got actually silent when they put a needle in Will's arm and he fell unconscious. Chris sat in a chair next to Mike as he looked at Will who looked so peaceful yet in so much pain.

"Chris, how are you feeling?" Mike whispered and Chris's hazel eyes glanced over to his friend.

"I don't know. I just want everything to be... normal again." He sighed and Mike nodded.

"I get it. I want it to get normal as well." Mike replied as the two friends looked at their sleeping friend again. The two eventually fell asleep and Chris fell into a dreamless trance.

Chris stirred a bit in his chair and eventually woke up by a voice.

"Mom?" Will's voice came and Chris opened his eyes.

"Hey," Joyce said softly as she stood next to her son and Chris started waking up Mike while Bob went to get a doctor. "Sweetie, how you feeling? You okay?" Joyce asked Will.

"Okay, they're on their way," Bob said as he entered the room again. "Hey."

"Who is that?" Will asked as he looked at Bob.

"What?" Joyce said confused as Chris and Mike shared a look.

"It's me, big guy. It's Bob." Bob smiled as he tried to touch Will, but he pulled his hand back.

"Are you a... doctor?" Will asked Bob and Chris started getting an uneasy feeling.

"No. No, it's just me. Just... just Bob." Bob replied, but Will kept being confused and Chris kept feeling worried. More doctors started filling into the room and Chris and Mike stood next to each other as Dr Owens ran a few tests.

"Do you know your name?" He asked Will.

"Will," Will replied.

"Your full name?"

"William Byers."

"Do you know... Do you know who I am?" Dr Owens then asked and Will thought for a bit.

"A doctor." He replied again.

"Have we met before?"

"I don't remember."

"Hmm," Dr Owens sighed. "You don't remember me? Okay. How about, uh... How about these guys over here?" Dr Owens then asked and pointed at Chris and Mike. Will looked at the two and Mike awkwardly waved while Chris awkwardly smiled. "Know who they are?" Will kept looking at them as he tried to think. "It's all right. Take your time."

"That's friends," Will said eventually. "Mike." He said and Chris nervously chewed on the inside of his cheek.

"And the other one?" Dr Owens asked and Will thought again.

"Also my friend," Will said and Chris released his cheek. "Chris." Chris and Mike shared a relieved look as they started smiling a bit.

"What about me, kid? You remember me?" Hopper asked Will, but he just shook his head no. "They tell me you helped save me last night. You remember that?" He asked again but Will shook his head again.

"Do you remember anything about last night? About what happened?" Dr Owens asked.

"I remember they hurt me," Will said and Chris started chewing on his cheek again.
