warning: yandere themes, possessiveness, manipulation. you've been warned. but it gets progressively worse.

also disclaimer: none of this should be romanticized. yes, this does get worse but i will never do non-con or r*pe, not it for me.

I think you guys know y/n and the party are 18+ but 001 will be like 20 something. No creepy stuff on my books.

I groan, waking up to seeing Max not sleeping. "Dustin! Nancy spoke. "Aren't you supposed to be on Max watch?" He replies,"Yep, Yep, Yep, Yep, Sorry." "Then where is she? Nancy asked. I look over, seeing her not there.

"She's right there, a second ago, I swear I just dozed off for......an hour."

We all got up, and while I trusted that Max still was in the Wheeler House, Everyone else sort of panicked for some reason. "Morning, guys, Mrs. Wheeler smiled. "Everything okay?"

"Yeah."

I didn't like lying to Mrs. Wheeler, but she would tell Joyce or someone, that I came over here. 

"Yeah, everything's okay."

She smiled."I think It's so sweet that you guys are sticking together like this." Ted commented in but his words never were taken seriously, he was grumpy 247. "You know You're welcome anytime, She adds.

"Totally, You're like family, Dustin replied. I was concerned for Max, but I knew she might feel better after some sleep. If she got any last night. "Hey, Nancy said. "Hey, Max greeted. "You okay? Nancy asked.

"Just couldn't sleep."

"I'm glad you're okay, Max, I smile of relief. "Thanks, (y/n), Max replies. She added, "People kept blasting music in my ears for some reason, but Holly let me borrow some of her crayons, We've been having fun, right Holly?"

"Mhm."

"Is that what you saw last night? Nancy asked. "I mean, It's supposed to be, Max responded. "I thought it'd be easier to draw it out than explain it, but... not so much."

"Is that..."

"It was like they were on display, and then there was this red fog everywhere. It was like a dream, Like a nightmare."

"You think Vecna's just trying to scare you? Dustin asked. "With Billy? Yeah, Max replies. "But when I made it here, I dunno something was different. He seemed surprised, almost.  Like he didn't want me to be there."

"Maybe you infiltrated his mind, Dustin suggested. "I think Dustin might be correct, I pipe in. I mean, He Invaded your mind right?" "Is it that big of a leap to suggest you somehow wound up in his? Dustin asked. "Like Freddy Krueger's boiler room."

Holly asks, "Freddy Krueger?" "He's a super burned up dude with razors for fingers, Dustin explained. "And he kills you in your dreams." "Seriously? Nancy said. "Sorry, It's a movie, Dustin finished. "It's not real."

 "Just think about it, What if you somehow unlocked a backdoor to Vecna's world? Like maybe the answer we're looking for is somewhere in this incredibly vague drawing. God, we need Will."

"No shit."

Looking at the drawings, It sort of clicked in my head, I made a connection. The drawing was of an ordinary home.  "It's Victor Creel's home, I murmur, everyone glancing over at me. Nancy looks closer.

"(Y/n) is right, Nancy spoke. "It is his home. But what does Creel have to do with Vecna?" I knew who Vecna was, but there was no way he could be connected to Creel in some way. "I'm going to go to the restroom, I tell them, awkwardly smiling before rushing over. 

Entering the restroom, I washed my face a few times, trying to keep it in. But as I grabbed the towel, something felt different. I dried off, before yelling, "Guys? Are you there?" No response. But something shifted.

I exited the restroom, seeing I was in the Upside down. "Holy shit, I mutter, seeing the table we were sitting at, empty. Just, whatever It was. I rushed out the door, running as fast as I could, I was attempting to see if I could get out.

But it might be too late for me. 

"(Y/n)... a voice i recognized very well, right behind me, spoke. "Leave me alone! I tell him. Instead of seeing Vecna, I saw 001 right in front of me. Of course, I wasn't stupid. I knew this wasn't his real form, but still.

"What do you want from me? I whimper in fear, but I felt dumb for doing that, I was stronger than that. 001 smiled. "You. I killed for you." My eyes widen, stepping back before remembering where I was. 

Upside Down.

All of a sudden, I hear the party yelling, my favorite song playing in the distance. I smile, I would be free. 

"You are mine, (y/n). Don't you want me to help you?"

Despite his strong manipulation skills, I had to keep it in. I shook my head, beginning to run, their yelling still occurring. I saw them in the bathroom, shaking me awake. I was so close to get there. 

His best efforts, though, were not enough to not stop me, I kept going. Keep going, (Y/N), I thought, being positive. Even though I was tired of running, I couldn't just let him kill me, no way. 

I saw flash, then woke up out of my trance. Everyone hugging me. "So glad You made it, Max spoke, hugging me. I smile." How did you know what my favorite song was?" Dustin shrugged." Mike knew, he kept this in his room."

Dustin threw me the tape of my favorite song, written in bold, (Y/N)'S FAVORITE SONG. I smiled, but thought it was weird Mike knew it was my favorite, but i just shrugged. Mike was sentimental, so it was something he would do. 

"Oh, I reply, if i still loved Mike romantically, I would've cherished it with my life. But now, not really. "(y/n), what did you see? Nancy asked. I look puzzled. "Hawkins, but in the upside down form. I couldn't get into his mind. But if he tries again, I might."

"Good Thinking, (Y/n)."

I sighed of relief, I escaped Vecna, but he seemed to do it on purpose. did he just let me go, intentionally?
