Everyone huddled up, standing back to back and waiting for the beast. An arm shot in through the wall and Nancy shot it, it exploding goop all over Rues face. "It's in my mouth!" She shouted, spitting onto the floor. Just then another arm shot in, this time Rue grabbed it. "Hey! I got it!" It began to flail around, raking Rue with it and began to choke her. Nancy shot it and it dropped her. A few more arms shot through the walls but El grabbed them with her powers and made them explode. "Let's go!" Jonathan yelled, opening the door but an arm bit onto El's leg. Everyone pulled her as Rue and Lucas grabbed hatchets, swinging until it let go.El used her powers to rip its face in half then they all helped El into the car and drove off, leaving a hurt Mind Flayer behind.

Danny had woken up and began to laugh again which made Robin and Steve laugh. The general left the room for the doctor to do anything he wanted to them but the door soon busted open with Dustin and Erica, Dustin zapping the shit out of the doctor. The two kids helped out the older teens and got them into the back of a cart, driving off to the elevator. Guards were yelling as the doors closed and they headed up. Danny jumped on a cart that Steve was pushing around and he fell, Robin yelling ,"Wipeout!"
The group headed inside the mall and straight to the movie theater all the way to the front row. "Man these seats blow." Steve commented making the other two agree. "Then dont watch it!" "I wanna watch it." "Then watch it! Dont go anywhere okay?"

Hopper had finally arrived at the fair to look for the kids.
"You three stay here." He pointed at Angel Murray and Alexei but Angel shook her head, getting out the car. "Hey! What did i just say!" "Im going to take a piss, okay?" Angel walked away and to a restroom. Hopper and Joyce walked around for the kids but couldn't find them. "Jim!"
Hopper turned to see Murray. "They got Alexei!"

Hopper looked around and saw a familiar face. "Get to the car." he handed Joyce the keys and walked away to a funhouse. He climbed in and russian guards were right behind him. He beat them up as Grigori made his way into the Funhouse. He pointed his gun, looking around until someone shouted, "Hey!" He turned to see Angel, holding a AK-47 right at him. She fired, knocking the man down. She ran towards Hopper and they both headed out, jumping into the car as Joyce drove away.

Max was currently cleaning Els leg so it wouldn't get infected when Mikes walkie talkie cracked to life. "This is Dustin! We got a code red! I repeat, code red!" "Dustin?" Mike asked. Dustins voice became more distorted as the battery of his walkie talkie died.

Everyone sat together in the freezer isle, El looking for Dustin. Lucas and Mike argued about New coke as El ripped her blindfold off. "Sorry."
"I found him."

"Dustins so worried he's at the movies?"

Danny drank from the water fountain as Robin and Steve talked about Back to the Future. "Woah. Danny look!" Robin said, the boy wiped his mouth and looked up, along with Steve. The lights were bright and glowy which made the three sick and run to the bathroom to throw up. After puking, they sat against the toilets.

"Okay, whens the last time you peed yourself?" Steve asked Robin. "Today." They all laughed, "It was only a little." Steve knocked on Danny's stall, "How about you, Hopper?" "Uhh, maybe today also." And they laughed again. "you ever had a crush?" Steve asked Robin. "Yeah, uh," She paused and sighed, "Tammy Thompson." The bathroom was silent until Steve scoffed, "Ew. Tammy Thompson who was supposed to be Nashville or whatever? You have horrible taste Robin!" Steve joked, Robin gasping as Danny joined in laughing. "How about you Harrington? You got a crush?" "Uh yeah? See this stud over here?" Steve responded, earning another gasp from Robin as Danny slid into Steve's stall, pulling him in for a kiss.

They pulled away when Robin slid in too, now being too cramped which made them laugh. Just then, the bathroom door busted open, Dustin and Erica staring angrily at them, "Okay, what the hell?"

They headed out the bathroom to see people leaving the theater, so they huddled up with them until they noticed guards at the door, them noticing them as well. The group ran to the escalator and slid down, running to a food stand and hiding.

The guards looked around, radioing to fellow soldiers until they heard a creaking noise. They looked up to see the party, looking down at them. "Hi." El said before shouting and tossing the car at them, killing them all. Scoops troop stood and looked up, Dustin laughing as the two groups made their way to eachother.

Dustin ran to Lucas Will and Mike, Steve ran to El and Max, Rue hugged Danny and Robin introduced herself to Nancy and Jonathan. As they caught up with everything, El walked off, a pain going through her leg. They looked at it and saw something pulsating in it.
"Its not that bad!"
"Robin? You're not helping"
"Sorry!"
