"Chrissy and Fred both died so close, but why them?" Max said, pacing our basement.

"Maybe it was just a random selection?" Dustin said.

"A random selection? Really?" Steve said sarcastically.

"I mean, surely there must be a reason." She continued. "Chrissy was crying in the school bathroom yesterday, and I saw her walk out of Ms Kelly's room, and Fred.. He is always with her.. Clearly something was going on."

"What if we break into the school and find their files?" I suggested.

"That is a good idea- but, how are we supposed to break into a school?" Dustin said.

"I think i might have an idea. Steve, i'm gonna need you to drive me to Ms Kelly's house, i know the address." Max said, not messing about, as she walked quickly u the stairs and out to Steve's car. We all followed her.

"No, no, no. Absolutely not! I am keeping you inside, whether you like it or not. We don't need anymore problems!" Steve argued.

"Open the door." Max said sternly.

"Uh, no."

"I know a good lawyer."

Steve scoffed and gave in to Max's stern behaviour.

"Once we've done this, can we go and see Eddie? Please?" I asked.

"It depends what we find out from these files." Steve said and started driving.

***********************************************************************************************

Max was inside talking to Ms Kelly. I had my head leaning on the car window.

"Dustin do you copy? It's Robin. Over."

Dustin picked up his walkie talkie, Steve and I turned our heads to see.

"Yes Robin this is Dustin, i copy. What have you found?"

"We may have just figured out where Victor Creel lies."

"Okay that's great, we're waiting for Max right now, and then we will probably get to you,"

"We'll get to Eddie first, right?" I said, trying to make Dustin change his mind.

"Sam i'm sure Eddie's fine, for now we're gonna have a look at these files and find Nancy and Robin. If anything happens to him, we're in range for him to contact."

I nodded my head and turned my head back to the front.

Max all of a sudden came running from out of her house, and got into the car.

"Drive!" She yelled. "Steve drive!"

"Alright alright! Did you get the key?!"

"Drive!!!"

Steve drove us to Hawkins high, where we broke in through the doors using one of the keys Max had taken from Ms Kelly. Dustin handed everyone a torch from his bag, seeing as all the lights would be off and it would be too much of a risk to put them on.

Max led us to Ms Kelly's room and we all started rummaging through the drawers for the files.

"Guys, i found them." I said, taking out Chrissy and Fred's folders.

Max sat at the desk and started to read through Chrissy's. As she read through, i sat on a spare chair and quietly tried to get hold of Eddie. But nothing was coming through because we were too far away from him, the range wasn't as good as Dustin made it out to be.

"Eddie, are you in range?" I still tried.

"Can you pass me Fred's file?" Max said to Steve, who placed Fred's file down.
