We head to the middle school and set up the pool in the gym, I grab my pocket knife from the inside of my sock and cut open the salt and help Jonathan and Hopper. We help her into the pool as lights start to flicker as Eleven floats there. Her breathing picks up as the light pulse

"What's happening?"Nancy asks

"I don't know" Mike says

"Is Barb ok?"Nancy asks El

"Is she ok"I question

"Gone. Gone"Eleven repeats, crying. I grab Nancy's hand as she covered her mouth, I couldn't believe Barb was gone

"It's okay, it's okay we got you don't be afraid, I'm right here with you"Joyce reassures

"You're safe El, we got you"I help reassure.

"Castle Byers"El mutters

"Will?"

"Tell him mom is coming for him"Joyce says.

"Mom is coming for you"Eleven Repeated

"Hurry"We heard through the walkie

"Okay you tell him to stay where he is. We're coming"Joyce stutters out

Eleven shoots up forward and Joyce and I hold her close, while I still have a hold of Nancy's hand for comfort about Barb. I rub her arm making sure to keep her warm with a towel, whispering encouragement and praise to her.

Nancy and Jonathon drag me with them and told me the plan and I immediately am on board, we sneak to the station and grab our stuff

"Remember"Nancy cut him off

"Straight into Will's room and-"

"Don't step on the trap"I continue

"Wait for the yo-yo to move"Nancy says

"Then"Jonathan says as he opens the lighter.

"You ready?"He asks

"As I'll ever be"I reply

"Ready"Nancy says after me, we put our hands in the middle with knifes to our palms

"On 3, 1,2 you don't have to"Jonathan says

"Jonathan stop talking"Nancy says

"3"I say as we slide the knife across our palm.

We wrap up our hands, when there's a creak

"Did you hear that?"Nancy asks

"It's just the wind"Jonathan reassures

"The lights speak when it comes"I tell them

"Speak?"Nancy says confused

"Blink"Jonathan corrects

"Think of them as alarms"Jonathan adds, there's a silence as Nancy wraps jonathans hand as I wrap my own. Then there's sudden knocking

"Jonathan you there man, Danielle you there it's... it's Steve. Listen I just wanna talk"Steve yells, then continues knocking. Nancy answers it as they continue back and forth. I continue wrapping Jonathams palm.

"Yeah, what's going on?"Steve asks

"Nothing."I respond

"Wait a sec. Did he do this to you two?" Steve asks

"No."Nancy responds

"Nancy, let me in! "

"No."

"No! No, Steve"

" What is What the - "Steve says confused

"You need to get out of here."Jonathan says grabbing a hold of Steve

" Listen to me.I'm not asking you, - I'm telling you, get out of here!"I yell at him

" What is that smell? - Is that gasoline?"Steve asks

" Steve, get out!"Nancy yells

"Wait."

"What? What is going on?"Steve yells out

" You have five seconds to get out of here."Nancy and I say, pointing a gun in direction

"Okay, is this a joke? Stop.Put the gun down."Steve stutters out

"I'm doing this for you."Nancy tells him

"Is this a- What is this?Nancy."Steve says confused

Three.

Two.

"No, no, no! No, no! Nancy! The lights."

"It's here."I stutter

"Wait, what's here?"Stev says confused

"Where is it?"Nancy asks, aiming the gun around

"Where is what?" Whoa! - Easy with that"!"Steve exclaims

"Calm down Harrington, she know what she's doing"I say

"Where is it?"Nancy asks again

" I don't know."Jonathan replies

"I don't see it."I respond

"Where is what? Hello? Will someone please explain to me what the hell is going "Steve says still confused, something came out of the ceiling

"No! Go! Go! Run! Go! Get out of here!"Jonathan yells. I grab onto Steve and pull him out of the way
