32. The Massacre at Hawkins Lab

I still kept going down. When I saw the gate I went through straight away. I was followed by Nancy, Robin and Eddie I didn't know they even got off the boat. Once I saw Steve he was being attacked I then managed to find an oar and I got one of the bats off. "Steve, we've got you." I said to him and hopefully he'd be ok. I hit the next one off and then it was the one that was strangling him.

"Quick! Hold it, Robin!" Nancy shouted at him. I couldn't imagine how alone Steve felt.

"I got it." Robin said and Nancy and I started hitting it to kill it. "Get it!" She shouted at us.

"Kill it! Kill it!" Eddie shouted and that's when I saw more coming.

"Just die already!" I shouted at this bat but it didn't go. Robin then started.

"Come on! Please!" She shouted at it. But nothing.

"Nancy, behind you! Watch out!" Eddie shouted before something sprang on her and pushed her to the ground.

"Oh my god, Nance!" Robin shouted and I looked at her.

"Robin, help Nance!" I shouted at her and I kept attacking this bat that was keeping Steve down.

"Robin, get it off me!" Nancy shouted and I kept hitting at this bat.

"Got it, got it, got! God damn it! Shit!" Eddie said and I held the bat still as Steve but it.

"Come here!" Steve said to it.

"No!" Eddie shouted and I then went to help Nancy before I got attacked.

"Eddie! Steve! Help!" I shouted as it latched onto my arm. I let out a gasp as it sank its teeth, fangs whatever in.

"Y/n, I got it!" Eddie shouted as he started getting it off. "Get off her!" He shouted. And started to pulled it off.

"Y/n, I'm coming!" Steve shouted as he swing his bat around.

"Come on, come on, come on, you son of a bitch! I said come on! Let's go!" Eddie shouted and as he continued trying to get it off Steve then helped.

"Y/n, we're going to get this thing off. Just keep calm okay." Steve said as she started trying to pull it off causing more pain. Once it was off I saw the blood on my arm. Steve then beat the bat up. Ripping it apart.

"Steve!" I said as I went over to him. Scanning him over. He was bleeding from both sides where he'd been attacked. I hugged him.

"Jesus Christ. Jesus H. Christ!" Eddie said as he dropped his oar.

"Are you ok? I mean your not. But how are feeling?" I asked Steve as he hugged me back. I was just glad that he was ok.

"I'm ok. I'm ok. I'm more worried about you." He said to me as we pulled apart. I then looked at my arm to see the blood.

"Are you okay?" Nancy asked him and we looked at his wounds then.

"Well, they took about a pound of flesh. But other than that, yeah, never better." Steve said as I rested my head on his shoulder. He tilted his head so it would be touching mine. A sense of comfort coming off as I side hugged him.

"Uh, do you guys think these bats, have, like, rabies?" Robin asked and I looked at her. They better not.

"What?" Steve and I asked her.

"It's just that rabies are, like, my number one greatest fear. And I think we should get you both to a doctor like really soon because once symptoms set in, it's too late. And you're already like dead." Robin said and I looked at her.

"When we get back, my mom can examine us. She's a doctor." I said to her with a smile. We then heard chittering coming closer. There was more. But they weren't here for us.
