(y/n) - your name

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(y/n) sighs as she sat on a chair with the rifle in her hands, just sitting in silence with the three musketeers and the rest of the kids that were waiting for Hoppers next order after everyone helped to clean up the Byers shed. They were using it as a non-disclosed area, boarding up every inch of wall, floor and ceiling with scraps of paper or cardboard to confuse the Mind Flayer in Will so he doesn't know where he is.

Nancy walked over to (y/n) and leaned against a wall in front of her. "So you got sucked into this to huh?" She smiles at her softly.

"It seems like it yeah..." (y/n) mumbles out. "Hey... I'm sorry... about Barbara..." Nancy frowns.

"Thanks... I just... I wish I was there to stop it all. If I had known what was happening, I could've prevented it-"

"-hey... it's not your fault Nancy. Yes you didn't know back then but now you do and now you avenged your friend." Nancy nods, explaining to (y/n) what she and Jonathan did.

"And now, the news will be out and Barb's parents will finally have closure."

"The important thing is... did you get closure?"

"I... I guess in a way... I did. Those bastards are going to get what's coming to them."

"Atta girl." (y/n) cheers, hi-fiving Nancy. The girls sit in silence for a bit, Nancy looking over at Steve who was urging her to ask the question he begged her to ask (y/n) while they were in the shed together.

"(y/n)."

"Yeah?"

"Is there anyone you like?" (y/n) raises a brow at Nancy's question.

"That was random..."

"Yeah..." Nancy chuckles nervously and (y/n) shakes her head. "Really? No one?"

"I-" (y/n) stops, her mind going to Billy and her eyes widen. It had been almost 24 hours since she last saw him and she promised she would come back to him! He must be worried! "I need to call someone!"

"We can't call anyone! The mind Flayer might track it!" Dustin hisses out.

"But-" Dustin shakes his head and (y/n) purses her lips, looking at Max who was talking to Lucas. Everyone stops when the lights in the house suddenly start to flicker, walking over to the window to stare at the shed where the Byers, Mike and Hopper were in. "What's happening-?" the door suddenly slams open and Hopper, Mike and the Byers walk into the house. 

"He's talking, just not in words." Hopper says, sitting at the table with a pen and paper.

"What is that?"

"Morse code." everyone replies back to Steve.

"H.E.R.E."

"Will's still in there. He's talking to us." Hopper nods. Everyone rushed around to get things to talk to Will to distract the Mind Flayer in him. (y/n), Lucas, Max and Dustin stayed in the house to translate the morse code Hopper was receiving from Will through the walkie talkie as (y/n) noted down the letters.

"Guys!" (y/n) calls everyone over.

"Close gate." everyone says.

"As in the gate in the lab?" (y/n) whispers and everyone jumps when the phone rings. "Shit!" (y/n) jumps up and tears the phone off the wall without thinking, looking back at the others in fear.

"Do you think he heard that?" Max asks.

"I don't know but get ready." (y/n) picks up her rifle, hearing loud screeching from the distance.
