We ran into the camper with the stuff.
"What happened?" Lucas asked.
"We gotta go." Steve said.
"Your old friends are here." Erica said.
"Shit!" Lucas said.
"Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!" Dustin yelled as I sat in the front seat.
"I'm going! I'm going! Sit down!" Steve yelled as he started the car.
We drove off.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We were getting everything ready for us to go back into the Upside Down. Dustin and Eddie were making shields with spikes in them out of garbage can lids, Lucas and Erica were making spears, Steve and Robin were making Molotov Cocktails, and Nancy and I were cutting off the barrels of our shotguns. Max was holding her gun down and I was sitting by the camper holding my gun down with my foot while I sawed the barrel off.
"Is this legal?" I heard Max ask.
"Actually, I think it's a felony." Nancy said.
"Right." Max said.
"But it guarantees one thing." Nancy said. "Kate and I won't miss."
Eddie and Dustin started playing around. I chuckled as I watched them play around and I snapped the barrel off.
"I mean, it just doesn't make sense." Steve said as he held the glass bottle and the funnel for Robin to pour the gasoline into.
"What doesn't make sense?" Robin asked.
"That was Dan Shelter. He graduated, like, two years ago." Steve said.
"So?" Robin asked.
"So he's in college." Steve said. "Which means he was visiting on spring break. Fast Times was returned, like, I don't know, a week ago? Right? Unless she's got some horndog brother we don't know about. Which is possible. Or she's just, like, really into Judge Reinhold?"
"Steve." Robin said.
"What?" Steve said.
"I don't care." Robin said. "I don't understand why you do either with everything that's going on. Honestly, this feels like the perfect time for that little pull of the rug because... in the face of the world ending, the stakes of my love life feel spectacularly low."
"Yeah. I mean, I get you there, but... I still have hope." Steve said.
"Not everything has a happy ending." Robin said.
"Yeah, yeah, believe me, I know." Steve said.
"I'm not talking about failed romance." Robin said. "I just... I have this terrible, gnawing feeling that... it might not work out for us this time."
"You think we shouldn't be doing this?" Steve asked.
"I think we're mad fools, the lot of us, but... but if we don't stop him, who will?" Robin said. "We have to try. Right?"
"Yeah." Steve said. "To killing Vecna."
"Slash Henry." Robin said.
"Slash One." Steve said.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I sat in the front seat next to Steve. The sun was starting to set. I looked out the window as Steve looked at me. We stopped at Victor Creel's house and Max, Lucas, and Erica got out and went in. We then drove to Eddie's trailer and we all started dropping down into the Upside Down.
