Everyone sat in Max's livingroom, listening to what Nancy had to say. Y/n sat on the floor with Steve in front of her, he had a bottle of rubbing alcohol, and a bottle of peroxide at his side slowly cleaning up Y/n's bat wounds. Eddie's vest had been discarded to the side, along with the make shift bloody bandage. Nancy was sitting on the couch, explaining everything that she had saw.

Vecna was Henry Creel, Victor Creel's son. His own son had killed his wife, and daughter. And made Victor think that his son was dead too. But that wasn't even the worse part, Vecna was also a number. A number like a Eleven, but he was 001, he was the first one.

Nancy then explained the end of Hawkins, how she saw everything get destroyed. She said she saw a dark cloud spreading over the town, and some parts of it being on fire. She said she saw dead soldiers, and a creature one that they've never seen before. But it wouldn't be the only one, there would be more. It was an army completely invading Hawkins.

"Okay, but...he's just trying to scare you, Nance." Steve said,  once she had stopped explaining everything "Right? I mean, it's not real."

Y/n hissed in pain as Steve gentle cleaned the bite mark "Fuck that stings." She groaned.

Steve looked up at Y/n with worry "Shit, I'm sorry hon." He whispered.

"Not yet." Nancy whispered "But there was something else. He showed me gates. Four gates. Spreading across Hawkins. And these gates, they looked like the ones outside of Eddie's trailer, but....they didn't stop growing. And this wasn't the upside down Hawkins. This was our Hawkins. Our home."

"Jesus christ." Eddie mumbled dragging his free hand down his face.

"Four chimes." Max suddenly said causing everyone to look at her, "Vecna's clock, it always chimes four times. Four exactly."

"I heard them too." Nancy said.

"He's been telling us his plan this whole time." Max said.

"Four chimes, four deaths, four gates, the end of Hawkins." Y/n said shaking her head, clenching her fists.

"I'm sorry." Steve apologized again "I'm almost done."

"If that's true....he's only one kill away." Dustin said sounding even more stressed.

"Oh jesus christ. Jesus christ!" Eddie panicked hiding his face in his hands.

"Try 'em again. Try 'em again." Steve urged, looking up and motioning to the phone.

Ever since they got here, they've been trying to get ahold of everyone in California. But they weren't getting an answer. And normally Joyce would answer whenever she got the chance, especially since her job requires her to be on the phone all day.

Y/n shook her head "They aren't gonna answer." She said "We've been trying for days."

"Anything?" Dustin asked Max after a few minutes.

The red head shook her head "No. Rang a few times, then went to a busy signal." Max answered setting the phone down, and walking back over to them.

"Man, what the hell." Y/n sighed shaking her head "Joyce is always on her phone, but never this much." She said.

"Maybe you punched it in wrong. Try again." Steve said grabbing the piece of clothing Max had brought, so Y/n could get all bandaged up again.

"I didn't punch it in wrong." Max said rolling her eyes and going back to the phone.

"Well, I don't know." Steve sighed looking back to Y/n "I'm gonna press this on you, okay?"

Y/n nodded "Just do it." She said, ready to get this over with.
