The next morning I woke up to the constant sound of banging at Eddie's front door, it really sounded as if the FBI were outside.

I got up, and noticed a groggy Eddie behind me, loosening his grip on my hips as he was just waking up too.
I watched him waddle off in his boxers to the front door, opening it and revealing the screen door that Robin, Steve, and everyone else stood behind.

As soon as I heard their voices, I raced around the room to find my clothes, putting them on quickly before everyone walked in.

Steve and everyone else walked into Eddie's room, where I stood there, and could feel them staring at me in a suspicious way.

Realizing why, I gasped before slapping my neck to cover a hickey Eddie had left from last night.

"How fun." Robin laughed at me, and a nervous Eddie who was sitting in the corner of his room.

"Ew y/n. Anyways, we don't have much time. We need a plan." Nancy said, stepping past the crowd of teenagers near Eddie's bedroom door.

Suddenly, Dustin popped his head over Steve's shoulder before walking forward with Nancy too.

"I agree with her." He said, giving me a quick dirty look.

"Listen, if you guys want to be the 'boss' and judge me, I'm out." I lifted my hands in a sarcastic way, creating a giggle on Eddies face.

"Listen, y/n, this could be worse than the mind flayer, and ten times worse than a demogorgan!  There's no time for jokes!" Nancy scolded me.

I rolled my eyes before keep a straight face, and starting to zone out, thinking about everyone we lost. Billy, almost Eleven, so many people.

"We don't have Eleven with us. There's no way we'll survive without her." I said, looking up at Nancy's cold face.

"The girl with powers?" Eddie asked, and we all nodded.

"Listen, I might know a place." Eddie said, his voice echoing through the room, that was now completely quiet.

"We can get guns and shit there." He said, getting up, and running to the table in his house.

He picked up a map from somewhere, and stretched it out on the table.

"It's a only a few miles out of town...we won't make it there in time on bikes, but I know a thing we can drive." Every crowded around Eddie at the table.

"Thing?" Steve asked.

"It's not exactly mine...but it'll do." He smiled.

"Hey red, you got a mask or a bandana or something?" Eddie asked Max.

She looked up and nodded.

A few minutes later, we were creeping around someone's trailer as Eddie led us to a mobile home van. He crept along with a Michael Myers mask that Max had given him.

We all stayed hidden behind the random trailer, as we watched him go behind the home.

He snuck behind and opened the window, crawling through, signaling for us to come after him.

We all went inside, one by one as Eddie began to Hotwire it.

He held a pair of pliers in his mouth, untangling the wires with his fingers.

"You know I'm not sure I like the idea of you driving." Robin says.

"Oh I'm just starting this sucker, Harringtons got her, don't ya big boy?" Eddie replies, making me laugh a bit.

I lock the door as Eddie finally starts the vehicle, Steve taking the wheel and speeding off.

As he drove to the gun shop, I sat with Eddie and talked about our plan in the upside down.

Our plan was that Nancy, Robin, and Steve stuck together, leaving me with Eddie and Dustin, as everyone else went to the creel house, trying to channel Vecna, getting to him to the upside down, making Max our bait, but then saving her along with Hawkins.

Soon, we arrived to the shop, and we all hopped out of the van, and walked inside.

We all split up with shopping carts, throwing guns, grenades, and all sorts of weapons into our carts.

I looked around at mini hand guns as Nancy stood holding a rifle at the other end of the glass counter.

Suddenly, a familiar face stood between us, talking to the store clerk behind the counter.

His green and bright yellow letterman stood out to me, and his blonde hair flashed in the light.

As I took a closer look, I realized it was Jason and had covered part of my face with my hand, quickly grabbing a gun and walking past.

Avoiding him, I could hear him notice and question Nancy. Before I heard anything else, I grabbed my stuff and rushed out, signaling for the others to hurry up.

I ran to the van with everyone behind me, we shoved our weapons in the back, abandoning the shopping carts and hopped in.

I got in first, noticing a lonely looking Eddie fidget with his rings as he waited.

I smiled and sat next to him.

"We need to go. Jason and his boys are there." Steve's voice echoed throughout the vehicle before jumping on the drivers seat, and driving off.
