Erica, El & Lucas- Waiting Room

"So, I should-"

"Yeah, you should" Erica cut her brother off, as he was signing to the door.

El looked at Erica in the corner of her eye. The awkwardness was very present. Lucas turned around, and knocked.

Lumax- Hospital Room

"Max?" Lucas threw out, almost a whisper.

Her gray eyes pointed towards him "Hmph?" she hummed

"Are you... recovering from that information?" He chuckled

"Ask me tomorrow?" She smiled, but Lucas knew it wasn't genuine.

Lucas went to sit beside her. He took her hand in his, which was a normal thing for them now. She sighed loudly, which made Lucas think she was going to say something deep.

"Wow." She simply whispered.

There was a long pause where he looked at her, letting her get all the information to sink in.

"So, we have a wicked messed up friend group, and half of us are traumatized. El? Is that it? El, she told me there was worse, but she wanted you to tell me."

"Are you ready for that information?" Lucas asked, as a genuine question

Max's eyes widened, and her breath quickened. Lucas felt her hand gripping tighter onto his.

"Max?" Lucas was worried, but all he got as a response was a tiny whimper.

"EL, ERICA, HELP" Lucas yelled as he took Max in his arms

"Max? Max, listen to me. You'll be okay, Max??" He tried comforting her, but he was panicking as well.

Suddenly, the door flung open, and both El and Erica burst into the room. At that same moment, Max's eyes slammed shut.

El closed her eyes, and after a few seconds that felt like eternity to Lucas and Erica, she opened them.

"It's Vecna"

The Wheeler siblings-Mike's basement

"No, Nancy, I'm telling you, I didn't steal your 50 cents" Mike was pacing around angrily.

"Yes you did, you were the only one who had access to my room Micheal" Nancy replied, throwing her hands in the air.

"Is everything okay in there or is someone getting murdered?" A voice was heard from upstairs

"NO MOM WE'RE FINE" They answered in unison.

"I'm serious Mike, if you don't give me back that money, I-"

"Guys? Do you copy?? THIS IS A CODE RED" Lucas's urgent voice could be heard from the walkie talkie

Nancy and Mike looked at eachother. He rushed to it, and answered as fast as possible.

"What's wrong?"

"It's Max, Vecna has her again!"

Hey guys! I'm sorry, I had a seizure, and wasn't allowed to be anywhere close to screens during a long period of time, because it would trigger them. Butttt... We've finally hit the 10 episodes milestone! I can't believe it! So exciting! Hopefully I get better, and leave the hospital so I can write more! I'm sorry for the short chapter, but the next one will be longer.
