In the junkyard on the hill the boys and El were in a run down bus trying to avoid the helicopters hovering over Hawkins looking for them. Their heads turned when they heard the walkie going off."Dustin? Dustin please answer me?"
"Is that Jessica Hopper?" Lucas asked surprised.
"It's Jess..." Dustin stuttered. "She doesn't like to be called Jessica."
"Oh you like her." Lucas teased.
"Eat shit Lucas!" Dustin rolled his eyes.
"Dustin has a crush! Dustin has a crush!"
"Shit up!" Dustin yelled going to pick the walkie till Mike snatched it off him. "What are you doing Mike give it?"
"What am I doing?' What are you doing? What if it's a trick?"
"Jess wouldn't do that!"
"What if they're forcing her to say this? What if the bad men have her?"
"Jess is wouldn't get caught."
"She could though. Just don't answer it!"
"Dustin please honey answer me I need to know if you're okay. You're not in any trouble I just need to know if you're safe."
"Dustin do it."
"I'm sorry." Dustin was quick to grab the walkie and answer Jess. "Hi Jess yeah I'm here.... Im safe. We're all safe."
"Oh thank god! Where are you?! I want to bring you home!"
"We're in that junkyard you know on the-"
"Yeah I know where you are. Right I'm coming now okay so just stay put!"
"Okay and Jess don't be mad when you get but I'm-" Dustin looked between El and the rest of the group as Mike mouthed not to tell Jess about El. "We found-"
"I know about El. I kinda sussed it out after Nancy told me that they have no Swedish relatives."
"You told her!" Mike protested.
"I said she was your cousin!"
"Jesus Dustin!" Mike put his head in his hands groaning.
"Right okay stay where you are I'll be as quick as I can." Jess turned her walkie over grabbing her car keys from her back pocket grabbing the baseball bat that had been discarded on the front lawn of the Byers house.
"Jess you're seriously not going alone are you?" Joyce rushed after her.
"Dustin only trusts me. If I go with anyone else he'll think he's in trouble, especially if Hop goes."
"Just don't get hurt okay. Be careful I don't want you coming back with more injuries."
"I'll be fine." Jess smiled reassuringly kissing Joy e on the cheek before rushing int her car and racing off.
"It's been way too long." Mike paced around the bus.
"Do you know what. Maybe you were right. Maybe it is a trap. And the bad men are coming tk get us right now!"
"It's not a trap!" Dustin sighs heavily. "Like i said Jess wouldn't do that."
"You don't know that!"
"I do know that! How can you be so sure that Jess hasn't been captured by the bad men and told them where we are."
"Because she's my best friend god damn it! And I trust her! She wouldn't do that to us." Just then their heads then at the sound of vehicles approaching. They see the vehicles that chased them earlier. "SHIT!" They all duck and hide hoping for the best.
Everything goes quiet till another vehicle can be heard racing up the hill. The group could hear punches being thrown and grunts from people being beaten up. It all went silent till the door opened and Jess paper was with bat in hand and a few cut on her face.
"Hey guys let's get you out of here." Jess breathed heavily as Dustin stood up running up to her hugging her waist. "Hey kid." Jess hugged back. "Told you I'd come for you and keep you safe." Jess rubbed his back as everyone stood up and walked to the front of the bus. "Come on let's get you out of here." They all walked off the bus to see the 'bad men' knocked out on the floor. They all rushed into Jess car as she drove them back to the Byers house.
Nancy ran up to Mike bringing him into a hug as Hopper rushed up to Jess bringing her into a hug. "You took too long I got worried about you."
"Are you going soft!"
"Shut up!" Joyce then rushed up to Jess bringing her into a hug.
"I thought I told you not to get hurt."
"It's only a few cuts, you should've seen the other guys." Jess smirked as Joyce true don't to laugh hitting her arm before bringing her into another hug.
