I Notice

Chapter 20: Dust

I walked into the attic.

I saw him.

my father.

Being raised up by weird vines. He was in his trance like state. It was weird seeing him in my real body. Not in my mind body.

I looked to Nancy, Steve and Robin and gave them a nod. I took a step right in front of him. Taking in a deep breath I placed my arm out.

I began to put my force into his chest. Trying to deteriorate it. Robin threw a liquor bottle that was on fire at him. Once she threw it he opened his eyes. Staring straight at me.

His chest began to open up. Turning white as flakes of his skin started disintegrating in thin air.

Steve and Robin continued to throw fire bottles at him. Making him take a step back.

I put force into him to keep his arms down.

The hole in his chest kept expanding. It almost reached his shoulders.

I heard people walking up the attic steps and walking into the room. I ignored them and continued to work on him.

I felt blood pouring from both nostrils and a tad bit of warm blood spill from my ears.

~Eddie Munson~

Me and Dustin walked into the attic and there she was. She was trying to kill Vecna like we discussed in our plan. She looked tired. So tired.

We stood next to Nancy, Steve and Dustin.

blood.

there was so much of it spilling from her face.

her nostrils and her ears looked like they were gushing blood. there was just so much.

Vecna looked shocked. Daughter VS Father. Though the daughter is winning. It looks like it's killing her though.

The fire shined a orange light on her face. Her eyes. Her eyes turned bright red and blood started streaming down her face from her eyes. Her fucking eyes man. That looks like it hurts.

I turned over to Dustin. "This is crazy." came out of my mouth in a shocked tone.

"I know but shh." He said.

I closed my mouth and kept watching her. I watched the blood pour from her face as she started screaming and he fell apart even more.

She placed her free hand in front of him and her screams grew louder. More blood poured from her face and he turned into dust. He was just nothing anymore.

Astrin fell to the ground and I ran over to her.

~Astrin May~

I kept pushing at this. I kept trying my hardest to kill him. To turn him into nothing. I felt blood start to spill from my eyes. It made a odd stinging sensation. That's never happened to me before.

"This is crazy." I heard someone say.

Was that Eddie? How the fuck did he get here?. Is Dustin here? Is Dustin okay?

"I know but shh." I heard him say.

Okay. He's okay.

He was almost gone. He was almost dead. I just gotta hold on until he's gone.

hold on.

hold on.

hold on.

I felt as if I was losing myself.

I was losing consciousness.

I had to get this done.

I kept trying to hold on causing me to scream loud. I had to push more. He was almost gone.

I placed my free hand up in front of my father and applied more force his way. This act caused me to scream louder than I every have before.

He turned into dust. Leaving nothing behind.

my father is now nothing.

My body was to drained. I fell to the ground. Eddie came and ran up to me.

He held me in his lap. "Astrin!" He said concerned.

"Eddie." I said softly to match his energy.

The blood on my face smeared due to him holding me. Tears began to fall from my face because I knew what was about to come. I felt my breathing get heavier.

"Astrin let's go." Eddie said as a tear fell down his face.

Dustin came up and sat on the other side of me. "Oh no. Oh no." He said as tears formed in his eyes.

Clock chimes started ring loudly. 4 of them.

"Max." Nancy said as her Steve, and Robin ran down to the clock leaving me Eddie and Dustin in the attic.

I felt tears pool in my eyes and slowly be released.

Dustin started to cry badly. Max was dead. And me well they don't know yet.

~Eddie Munson~

Tears slipped from her eyes as she laid in my lap with Dustin beside her.

We have to get out of here.

"Can you walk?" I asked her.

"Oh Eddie." She sobbed out and put her hand on my cheek.

What does that mean? Why is she crying? She's gonna be okay right?

I looked up to Dustin. I was scared and confused. I just want her to lay with me in my bed in our world. The world I met her in.

Tears started to stream from my face. I pulled her into my chest.

"Let's get you out of here Astrin. Your going to be okay." I said to her.

She began to sob even more. Her breathing got worse. She put her other hand on Dustin's face.

"Clear his name. He doesn't need to be sitting in a prison cell." She said as tears still flowed down her face.

"No, Your going to do that yourself." Dustin cried out.

She shook her head.

Her breathing got worse and she looked at me.

"Thank you." She said.

I felt more and more tears stream down my face. I couldn't process this. This can't be happening. She's going to make it.

"I'm to tired to survive this." She said. "I can barley feel my own body." She cried out.

She held me tight. "I knew you for 2 seconds and knew I would love you." She whispered in my ear.

"Astrin..." I cried out.

she didn't respond.
