Eden watched the old lake house appear through the trees as they pulled up to where Eddie was hiding, quick to spot the boat house down the back of the property. She looked over at Steve as she pulled up, cocking an eye brow as he sent her a pointed look.
'Come on,' Dustin clambered out of the car.
She pushed open the car door, taking a bag of groceries from Robin before kicking the door shut with her foot. Dustin lead the way down to the shed, Steve at the back making sure no one was following them. He kicked open the door, Eddie letting out a small shout from inside as they all piled in.
'Delivery service,' Dustin grinned.
'Eden Lawson?' Eddie looked confused.
'It's Hargrove now, but yeh,' Eden shrugged.
'What?' Steve recoiled.
'Deal with it, Harrington.'
She took a few steps forward before dumping the bag of groceries on the floor, looking around the dark boat shed. Eddie was quick to take the bag off Dustin, pulling out a bag of chips. He wandered over to sit the boat hanging above the water, popping the bag open to stuff a handful into his mouth. Eden leant against a pole, looking out at the lake through the open door.
'So, we got, uh, some good news and some bad news,' Dustin sat on a stool; 'How do you prefer it?'
'Bad news first, always,' Eddie nodded.
'Alright, bad news. We tapped into the Hawkins PD dispatch with our cerebro, and they're definitely looking for you. Also, they're, uh, pretty convinced you killed Chrissy.'
'Like, one hundred percent kind of convinced,' Max chimed.
Eddie stared at max for a second, 'And the good news?'
'Your name hasn't gone public yet,' Robin answered; 'But if we found out about you, it's a matter of time before others do.'
'And once that gets out, everyone and their shallow minded mother is gonna be gunning for you and then you're fucked,' Eden shrugged.
'Hunt the freak, right?' Eddie suggested.
'Exactly,' Robin nodded.
'Shit.'
'So, before that happens, we find Vecna, kill him, and prove your innocence,' Dustin instructed.
'That's all, Dustin? That's all?'
'Yeh, no, that's pretty much it.'
'Who the fuck is Vecna?' Eden queried.
'Only the most powerful wizard to have existed.'
