"Holy shit," Steve and I say.
We made it down into the hole where Hopper got lost. There are what looks like dust particles everywhere.
"I'm pretty sure it's this way!" Mike calls out.
"You're pretty sure, or you're certain?" Dustin questions.
"I am 100% sure! Just follow me, and you'll know," Mike responds.
Mike begins to start walking, but Steve quickly puts an end to it.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, hey, hey, hey. I don't think so. Any of you little shits die down here, Y/N and I, are getting the blame. Got it, dipshit?" Steve snaps.
Steve snatches the map from Mike's hand and faces us.
"From here on out, I'm leading the way! Come on, let's go," Steve says.
We start to walk, but Steve is going a bit faster than everyone. He really wants to get out of here. Honestly, part of me hopes I die down here because I'm going to have to face Billy eventually. It was already bad enough that we fought, but then I stabbed him with a syringe to keep him from killing Steve, and as if it couldn't get worse, Max damaged his car. He's going to kill me once he finds me.
"Come on! Let's go! A little hustle," Steve shouts.
___
We make it to an opening, and shine our flashlights and look around.
"God, what is this place?" Max asks.
"Guys, come on! Keep moving," Steve orders.
We all continue to walk until we hear screaming from behind us.
"Ah! Shit!" Dustin screams.
"Dustin!" I yell.
"Help! Help!"
I run toward the screams, and everyone else follows closely behind. We reach him, and Steve pushes through the other kids.
"What happened?! What happened!?" Steve asks.
"It's in my mouth! Some shit got in my mouth! Shit!" Dustin screams.
He begins to cough, and Steve flashes a light on him.
"Oh, shit," he mumbles.
Dustin finally stops coughing and looks at Steve and me.
"I'm okay," he says calmly.
"You serious?" Max questions.
"Very funny, man. Nice, very nice," Steve says, annoyed.
"Jesus, what an idiot," Max sighs.
___
"Alright, Wheeler. I think we found your hub," Steve states.
There is a bunch of tunnels that lead to this opening. It's huge.
"Let's drench it," Mike says.
We all begin to spray or pour gasoline all over the place. I keep a close eye on Max just to make sure nothing happens to her. If anything were to happen to her after today's series of unfortunate events...
"I am in such deep shit," Steve states as he holds out his lighter.
"Same here," I sigh.
He looks at me and nods his head. Dustin nudges my arms, and I look at him with confusion, but he is moving his eyebrows up and down. What is he doing?
"Ready?" Steve asks.
"Yep," we all say.
He throws the lighter, and the hub quickly goes into flames.
