Fear Hawkins (Stranger Things/Fear Street)

Tommy Slater

Maya POV

Ziggy scream loudly when Gary's head and body falls on the floor.

Ziggy grabs my arm pulling me out of the way, but Tommy manages to cut me in the shoulder before I was fully out of the way. The axe gets stuck in the wall, and we run off as Tommy pulls the axe out of the wall.

We go to the Science and Nature cabin and sit on the floor hiding behind a table. I didn't register the pain in my shoulder till now. Ziggy notices and she quickly unwraps the bandage from her burned arm and wraps it around my shoulder that was bleeding. I winced when she tightened the bandage.

"Sorry." She repeatedly apologized.

"Does it still hurt?" She asked worriedly, "Not that much." I replied she smiled relieved it wasn't a serious injury.

Ziggy grabs my hand in worry when we hear the door open.

I pull out my pocketknife arming myself to protect us from Tommy.

"Maya? Ziggy? Are you two here?" Nick asked.

I sighed in relief Ziggy and I both stood up. I let go of Ziggy hand and ran over to Nick when I noticed the blood on his shirt.

"Nick, you're bleeding?" I exclaimed worriedly Nick shook his head, "No it's not my blood." He assured me I sigh in relief relieved that Nick is fine but also sad that more kids are dead.

Nick eyes widened, "Maya you're shoulder it's bleeding." He asked concerned noticing the bandage wrapped in my shoulder.

"It's just a cut nothing too serious." I replied Nick nodded but still looked concerned for me, "Whose blood, is it?" I asked pointing at the blood on his shirt.

"Umm Sean, Jesse, Rod, and Stacy." He replied his hands trembled in fear.

"All Shadysiders, it's the curse." Ziggy said speaking for the first time. Nick shook his head, "No, no it's just some psycho." Nick said.

Ziggy opens her mouth, but I interrupt her.

"It's not a psycho it's Tommy... he killed Gary by chopping his head off..." I trailed off thinking back to Tommy killing Gary with no remorse.

"She did this?" Ziggy said.

"Who?" Nick and I asked in unison.

"The witch!" She told us angrily Nick and I looked at each other.

"Zig she's not real." Nick told her, making her scoff at me, "Exactly what a Sunnyvaler would say, especially the future Sherif." She angrily said, making Nick frown.

"Zig could be right, Nick. People have seen things that they thought were make believe only to see that they are wrong, and it is real." I tell him discreetly reminding him of the Upside Down, the monsters, and El.

Ziggy stares at me confused what I said to Nick as me and him look at each other.

We hear the bell ring.

"They're getting on the bus; we have to go!" Nick tells us grabbing Ziggy's hand, "Come on we need to go before the bus leaves."

Ziggy pulled her hand away from him, "No! My sister still out there."

I put my good arm on her shoulder, "Ziggy, I've let a lot of people die-"

"It wasn't you're fault." Ziggy tells me.

"I can't let you die, okay. I will never forgive myself if I let something bad happen to you. Because I do like the weird Shadysider girl, and maybe once this is all over, we can go out and talk about Stephen King. I heard Stephen King new book is supposed to be a good one." I tell her Ziggy chuckles, "I'm done with King. I'm sticking to Judy Blume for now and learning how to play DND." Ziggy tells me with a small smile.
