Thirteen moves Robin out of the way and starts drinking out of the water fountain.

"I don't know about you guys, but I'm pretty sure that dudes mom was trying to bang her son." Robin says.

Steve laughs. Then his facial expression changes and he sprints to the bathroom.
Robin and Thee follow him.

They all go in separate stalls and they puke in the toilets. A few minutes later, they are all sitting in the floor by the toilets.

"The ceiling stopped spinning for me." Robin says.

Steve and Thirteen look up. "Oh yeah. It did." Steve says.

"Do you think we puked it all up?" Thirteen asks.

"I don't know, ask me a question." Robin says.

"Ok umm, when was the last time you peed your pants?" Steve asks.

"Today. When the doctor took out the bone saw." Robin says. Everyone laughs.

"Nope, it's still in our system." Steve says.

"Ok my turn." Robin says. "Have you ever been in love?"

"Yes actually I'm in love right now. Thirteen is my dream, the love of my life." Steve says.

Thirteen smiles in the next stall. Steve and Thirteen slide into Robins stall and they sit on the floor.

"Have you ever been in love?" Thirteen asks Robin.

Robin looks down. "You won't want to be my friend if I tell you."

"Robin, Steve and I will always be your friends." Thirteen says.

Robin sighs. "No one has ever liked me back but I liked Tammy Thompson."

"Wait but, Tammy is a girl." Steve says.

"Steve-" Robin says. She looks down.

"Steve, shes gay. She likes girls." Thirteen says.

"Ohhhh." Steve says. That makes sense.

"Yeah." Robin says.

"Robin, that doesn't change that we're friends. That doesn't matter." Thirteen says. "You're still a human just like Steve and I."

Thirteen hugs Robin. "You're a great friend Robin."

Thirteen sits back against the stall and groans in pain.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Steve asks.

"Everything hurts." Thirteen says.

Steve looks at Thirteens hand.

"Holy shit Thee!!" He yells. "You're missing a nail!!"

Thirteen looks down and tears fall down her face. Steve hugs her. "Hey baby, you're gonna be fine."

Thirteen starts coughing up blood. Steve is really worried.

Dustin and Erica run in. "What the hell guys!" Dustin yells. "We have to go!"

They all run out of the bathroom but there are Russians in the crowd of the other people leaving the mall.

"Just blend." Dustin says. They all walk in the crowd.

"Umm Dustin, you might not want to go to your house." Steve says.

"What? Why?" Dustin asks.

"I might have told them your full name." Steve says.

"Guys?" Robin asks. There is a Russian ahead of us.

"Abort." Dustin says. They all start sprinting in the other direction.

"Shit!" Steve yells.

Thirteen slides down the escalator and everyone else follows.

Steve, Thirteen, and Robin hide behind a counter of a pretzel store while Dustin and Erica hide behind a counter of a clothing store.

A few minutes later, it is just a few Russians in the mall.

"I found them." A Russian says into his earpiece.

Thirteen shuts her eyes and cuddles into Steve while Steve holds onto Thirteen.

Thirteens powers won't work well. They don't work well when she's in pain.

Thirteen sees the shadows get closer. Then a car honks and the lights turn on.

Thirteen looks at Steve, confused. Everyone looks up and sees El and some of the others.

A tear falls down Thirteens face and she looks at Steve. Steve smiles.

Then the car rolls over and hits all of the Russians. All of the Russians are dead on the ground.

Johnathan, Nancy, Mike, Max, Lucas, and Will walk to the edge and see the others.

El looks at Thirteen with shock. Both of the groups run to each other and Mike is helping Eleven walk.

"T-Thirteen?" El asks.

A tear falls down Thirteens face. "Y-yeah, it's me."

Dustin laughs. "You flung that thing like a hot wheel!"

Thirteen and El hug. They both starts crying.

"I-I don't understand." El says. "How are you alive?"

"Its a really long story." Thirteen says.

Everyone catches up with each other and soon, everyone is on the same page.

El walks away from the group and looks around. She falls to the ground.

Everyone runs over to El.

"El! What's wrong?" Mike asks.

"My leg, my leg." El says. Johnathan unwraps her leg and there is something moving inside her wound. El screams as it moves.

Johnathan runs and goes to get something. Steve pulls Thirteen to the side.

"Let's go get you cleaned up. You don't need to see that." Steve says. He picks Thirteen up and carries her to the small supermarket and goes into the medical isle.

Steve sets Thirteen down. "You okay?" He asks.

Thirteen nods her head. She coughs up some more blood.

Steve grabs some white bandages and some bandaids and some things to help clean wounds.

"Where do you have any cuts or any place when blood is exposed?" Steve asks.

"M-my stomach and my face and my finger." Thirteen says. Steve nods his head.

"You're wearing a bra right?" Steve asks. Thirteen nods. "I need to take your shirt off. Is that ok?" Steve asks.

"Y-yeah." Thirteen says. Steve takes Thirteens shirt off and exposes a huge bloody bruise.

"Holy shit! How did that happen?" Steve asks.

"The Russian dude punched me and kicked me there." Thirteen says. "Same with my face."

"This is probably gonna hurt a lot." Steve says.

"Just do it." Thirteen says.

"Three, two, one." Steve pours some hydrogen peroxide and some rubbing alcohol on Thirteens stomach.

"SHIT!" Thirteen screams. She shuts her eyes.

Steve wraps a bandage around Thirteens torso. "Ok, that parts over." Steve says. "Open your eyes baby."

Thirteen looks at Steve with tears in her eyes. Steve holds Thees hand. "I'm gonna do your face now."

Thirteen nods. After a few minutes of pain and screaming, Thirteen is all bandaged up. Her whole finger is wrapped because of her nail and there is a bandaid on it.

Thirteen then cleans Steve's wounds and puts her shirt back on.

"Let's go back to the others." Steve says.
