Eddie felt someone watching him so he looked around. He saw y/n watching him and he sent a smile to her but she didn't respond. Her body was still like a statue. Eddie raised his hand waving to her as if he was trying to stop her from day dreaming. His stomach sank as he saw she was stiff and not her usual self. "guys!" everyone turned toward him stopping their inspections of the upside down. He slowly walked over to y/n slightly stumbling.

"shit" max mumbled. She grasped lucas' arm who squinted his eyes at the sudden pain.

"what's happening to her?" Joyce placed a hand on her shoulder looking at y/ns half closed eyes. "they aren't foggy so she can't be under the curse" eddie said the panic in his voice obvious. "I-I think she might be in the void" el suddenly spoke up.

"the what?" they all asked. She explained what it was but obviously not good enough as the looks on their faces showed that they didn't fully understand it.

"how do you get her out?" hopper was playing with his moustache nervously. "we can't she has to get herself out. But I don't know why she went there she had no need to"

"her heart rate is fast but not abnormally fast" Joyce then let go of y/ns wrist causing it to flop back down. "is there anyway of communicating with her?" max raised her eyebrows hoping that they could.

"y-" suddenly el was interrupted by y/n falling to the ground. Luckily Joyce was there in front of her to catch her so she didn't get hurt. She laid her down on the cold, dusty ground. "why are her eyes doing that" Steve blurted out.

Her eyelids where fluttering and her eyeballs where moving around rapidly. Suddenly a gasp left her mouth causing them all to jump and go stiff. "i think she's fighting him" el said nervously. Fear rushed over eddies face making his usual rosy cheeks go pale.

El held onto y/ns shoulder and closed her own eyes. "I can't go in" her voice filled with confusion. "this isn't y/ns doing I think this is vecnas". They where all scared now, they could only imagine what y/n was going through in there.

"guys" their attention all went back to y/n as she spoke. She was jerking like she was almost in pain. Her brows where furrowed and her breathing was fast. El leaned over y/ns face to hear what she was saying. "he's coming" her voice was full of stress and fear.

"he's coming" el and will suddenly said at the same time. They all rushed over to the boats, hopper carrying y/ns body. They made a Fort out of the boats so it shielded them. Y/ns body was still jerking. "its OK stay calm" hopper whispers running his hand over her hair.

I warned el and the others about vecna. But I still needed to get out of here so I could help protect them. I collapsed to the ground all my energy drained. I slapped the ground causing water to slash back up. Some droplets hitting my face that was already wet from tears. The only thing I could do was sit there with my thoughts.

A million questions ran through my mind.

How long had papa been planning this for?
If he never had Peter would have he sacrificed me?
Was Peter always in pain?
Peter is alive?

The last question sent a rush full of hope through me. It was the thing I needed to help me escape. Vecna was nothing but a ball off flesh that covered Peters body there had to be some way I could tear its flesh off of him.

I focused then suddenly I jerked my body up. I found myself in hoppers arms in a dark place. "oh thank god" I heard the relief in Robins voice.

"what's happening" I barely whispered. "vecnas coming so we are hiding" Steve shrugged his shoulders as if it was a good idea. "what. No...vecna showed me a vision. Well Peter did" I saw the look of confusion on some of their faces but I just carried on. "papa made vecna. Vecna is nothing but a ball of flesh he has taken over Peters body and is using his powers" I saw the shock on els face as I turned to her. "so we could just use our powers to save him?" I could see she was now understanding and putting it all together. "yes but it won't be easy" she nodded determinedly.
