El...short for Eleven

We sat down on a log breathing heavily. Something wet fell on my head and then my hands and then my back until it was everywhere. Rain, heavy heavy rain.

"A-anya! What happening!"

"Oh it's just raining don't worry it won't hurt you, If anything it'll clean us!"

"Oh!"

The rain is heavy just like the night of the accident, the very night I was brought into the lab which is a coincidence since its raining the same way, In a forest on the very might I've escaped.

It almost feels nostalgic since I've not felt rain for so long, it's refreshing, cleansing. I look at Eleven smiling as she blinks up at the sky in disbelief.

I can then hear a strange muffled sound in the distance. I run behind a tree with Eleven peeking round to see where the sound came from. A bright light shone in out direction blinding my sight so we ran to the next tree but the light filled and revealed us.

I stood in front of Eleven and the torch tuned to the ground and revealed three young boys looking extremely confused but also harmless.

"What the hell!" One of the boys shouted, and another the whispered,

"See I told you guys we shouldn't be here!"

"W-who are you guys" said the one in the middle...

I turned to Eleven, the boys all looked around her age. I could tell she was curious.

"Um this is my sister"

"What are you doing here in the woods alone?" The boy in the middle crossed his arms...

"I could ask you guys the same thing!"

He then turned away and made a huddle with his friends...I heard things like...

"Maybe they are aliens"
"No they're just girls Dustin"
"Mike, Dustin has a point"
"Look maybe they know what happened to Will! We could take them to my house and ask questions!"
"What?! No! They could be dangerous!"
"Come on Lucas, They're just scared and cold!"
"Fine but if we all get kidnapped to space in their big UFO then that's your fault"

They turn back round to us.

"So I have a house not far away and you guys seem cold and it's very warm, so...if you want you can come over!"

"How do we know we can trust you?"

"Uhhh, I don't know"

I turn to Eleven about to say that we should run but she's shaking like a leaf from the cold rain...

"Fine"

"Awesome!"

We follow the boys out the woods.

"Oh we should introduce ourselves! I'm Mike"

"My names Dustin"

"I'm Lucas"

We both stay silent...but Mike just smiles at us,

"It's fine if you don't wanna share your names just yet! Uhh we only brought three bikes, you can go on the back of ours tho?"

Eleven then struggles to get on the back of Mikes bike but I'm way to big to fit onto the back of one of the other bikes.
