After everyone files out of the attic, not finding any useful information about Vecna or his origins, I stay behind a moment longer as a familiar chill goes up my spine.

Staring down at my flashlight, my breath hitches as the light flashes only for a brief moment then goes back to darkness.

"Dylan, come on!" Dustin's voice echoes up the staircase and I race down the stairs, away from that creepy attic.

"You good?" My brother asks as I catch up to him and I nod reassuringly, ignoring the slight headache forming in my temples.






After our unsuccessful field trip to the haunted house, we stop at the grocery store to pick up Eddie's food requests and some extra snacks for us.

I discretely pop three asprin into my mouth, washing it down with a swig of coke. All of this stress is hurting my brain.

"Not to be a wimp but can I maybe sit in the car for this visit cause this is gunna totally and royally suck." Robin tells Nancy as she drives the vista cruiser towards the cabin.

I'm sat in the trunk with Steve and Dustin, munching on some sour cream and onion pringles distractedly.

"It'll be fine..."

"I just can't stand to see those doe eyes of Eddie's break again. I really, really can't." Robin says empathetically and I agree with her. Eddie really has it it bad right now, especially since he's wanted for murders that he didn't commit and has never had to deal with an upside down crisis before.

"At least he can drink himself into feeling better." Steve holds up the six pack of beers, talking with his mouth full of chips.

"Ew, close your mouth." I groan in disgust and he flips me the bird in response, shoving more chips in his mouth.

"-so basically you're screwed Eddie, and I know that you're already screwed but now you're like doubly, tripley screwed!"  Robin rants and I lean my chin on headrest to the back seat.

"Maybe let's not have Robin do any talking while we're there?" I suggest and Dustin nods in agreement.

"We're one step closer to finding Vecna, that's what we say. That's what's important." Nancy tells us, ever the wise one of the group.

"See Robin, a positive spin can make all the difference." Steve tells her teasingly and the blonde groans from the passenger seat.

"Oh shit..." Nancy swears as we pull up to the cabin that's now surrounded by cops. Please don't let Eddie be arrested.

The gang all gets out of the car, going up to the caution tape barrier to listen to the new sherif making a statement to the news reporters about the situation.
