The group arrived at the War Zone.
There were more people than usual there, but it was understandable.
Jonathan and Argyle stayed outside to watch the vehicles.
Before entering the store, Steve made up some rules.
- Ok kids, this place is full of dangerous weapons and terrified people, so let’s go in pairs of two and we’ll look for what we need the fastest we can. - He said.
Everyone agreed. Lucas and Dustin went to the tools section together. Nancy headed for the flammable weapons and Steve, still hopeful, followed her. Robin looked at him outrageous and went to the guns section.
Mike tried to reach out to Will to be his pair, but Will didn’t really want to.
Will was still a little upset, so he followed Robin instead. Mike paired up with El and went together to the armor section.
- Why are you buying nails and screws? - Lucas asked.
- They’ll come in handy for us if we find some trash cans. - Dustin replied and they both kept looking for useful tools.
Meanwhile, Will and Robin were trying the guns.
- This one could work for short distances, and this other for longer ones. - Will said, handing in some guns to Robin.
- How do you know that? - Robin asked.
- Uh, just some practice. - Will replied.
They barely knew each other, but it was too easy for them to start interesting conversations.
- Hey, and, about Vecna.. - Robin said, trying not tomake Will uncomfortable. Will looked at her and nodded, waiting for her to finish the sentence.
Do you.. know how to distract yourself from him? I mean, when he got Max we saved her by playing her favorite song, but I don’t know what your favorite song is or if you even have one, or if you even like music and... -
- I like music, Robin. - Will interrupted, laughing.
- Yeah, of course you like music. I’m sorry, sometimes I talk way too much. - Robin said, nervously smiling.
- Oh, don't worry. And, now that you mention it, I guess I’m not sure how to distract myself from Vecna, so I just hope he doesn’t get me. - Will replied.
- But if he does? We can find many solutions, maybe a song, a story, something that gets into your heart. It could even be a true love kiss!
Will laughed.
- Well, my favorite song last time was Should I Stay or Should I Go, but it’s been so long since then. I love fantasy stories, and I don’t really know how a true love kiss should work. - He said.
- Think of the best kisser you have ever met. We could contact this person or-
- I… I have never kissed someone, Robin. - Will interrupted.
- Really? Oh, are you waiting for your special someone? - Robin asked, curious.
- Something like that. - Will replied. - It’s weird, I know. - He added.
- No.. No, It’s not weird. That’s pretty good actually. Your first kiss is going to be so special then. - Robin said.
- If I ever kiss someone. - Will said, hopeless.
- And.. does your special person know you love them? - Robin inquired.
- Nope. - Will replied
- And when are you going to make the first move, Will? The world is ending! - Robin exclaimed.
