The Year 1985

Chapter 01: Hawkins, Indiana

After the apocalypse happened in 2019, which was caused by one of the powerful Hargreeves named Vanya, the siblings were abruptly scattered around the city but in separate ways due to Five's time travel ability. They never thought time traveling was this complicated. They were thrown into various years and different timelines.

However, they still did find each other and some of the siblings are currently staying here with Elliott Gussman, that awesome, thoughtful, and caring guy who owns a television store and he considered it as his home. Gussman was truly honored he met these extraordinary siblings, and it created a big change in his life. Whatever would happen, these seven siblings would certainly unite again.

"Five, what is happening to you? You've been drinking a lot of coffee, and I think that is over. You should quit that now." Allison said as she gave a confused stare to his younger-looking brother and sighed. He didn't respond to her question and just proceeded to walk back and forth with a huge glaring expression plastered on his face, holding a cup of black coffee using his firm grip.

His mind was full of chaotic impressions that bother him a lot. He thought if they have already vanished in the year 2019, the apocalypse will no longer exist or appear in the past life and his family would be safe now, he was certainly wrong. He doesn't know how to tell his siblings about this problem he is keeping to himself.

"Oh my goodness, are you somehow going to transform into a creature or something, like a raging beast? That- furious face you are showing is giving me the sign to believe my thought." Klaus pointed to Five with a beer in his hand, as usual, and nodded to himself. He's sitting beside the seventh sibling, Vanya as she grinned at his brother's statement. She then looked at the fifth Hargreeves to see if he caught her.

"Oops, sorry." The girl bit her lower lip as she leaned closer to his fourth brother and snickered once again.

The fifth Hargreeves just rolled his eyes at his two siblings and his unsettled emotions triggered again. He finally stopped wandering and took another sip from the black coffee he is carrying since earlier. A deep sigh escaped from his mouth and gestured to Vanya to create a little space for him to sit beside her. His sister furrowed his eyebrows in disarray as she followed his motions. Her sight never landed anywhere else and continued to worry about Five's condition.

"Are you okay, Five? No, seriously. What's really going on with you?" The seventh Hargreeves caressed his shoulder as he simply shook his head in response, denying anything that he is certainly feeling inside. All his siblings waited for him to say something, but he stole a glimpse from them. He is still trying to build up the courage to explain to his siblings what he just found out. Five could predict presently they would blame anything on him about the apocalypse. His hands slightly shivered and gulped nervously.

"At what city are we again?" He asked with his low voice and never dared to look into their eyes. There is a quick pause before one of them could answer his interrogation. "Uh, Hawkins, Indiana?" Luther shrugged and raised his eyebrows, not quite sure of what he just answered. The siblings exchanged awkward stares and Diego cleared his throat, trying to fill up the silent atmosphere around them.

"Yeah, right." The second brother mumbled as he spun his knives with his fingers.

"No, what is actually going on? I can sense you wanted to say something, Five." Vanya caressed his shoulders and gazed into his face going to his gorgeous green irises that glistened in difficulty. He then avoided her sister's sight and immediately looked down at the ground.

"Should I say it?" He told himself in his mind.
