The officers searched the house after what joyce told them. After being told nothing was in there, its all safe they walked in. Hopper began to tell them the news found.
"A tropper found something in the, uh... water that's at the quarry. Our working theory right now is that Will... crashed his bike, he made his way over to the quarry and, uh... accidentally fell in. The earth must've given way. Joyce? Joyce? Do you understand what im saying?" Hopper told the family.
"No. Whoever you found... is not my boy. It's not will." Joyce declared
"Joyce-" hopper sighed
"No, you don't understand. I talked to him. A half hour ago." She stammered, walking over to the wall
"He was... he was here. He was... he was talking with these." Joyce declared
"Talking?" Hopper asked
"Uh-huh. One blink for yes, two for no. And... and, uh... and then i made this so he could talk to me. Cause he was hiding... from that, thing" joyce explained
"The thing that came out of the wall? The thing that chased you" hopper question, not believing it.
"Yeah" she replied
"Mom, come on, please" Jonathan said, walking to her.
"You've got to stop this." Jonathan sighed
"No, maybe he's... it's after him! Hes in danger. We have to find him! We-" she rambled
"What exactly was this thing? It was some kind of animal, you said?" Hopper asked
"Uh, no, it was... it was almost human, but it wasn't. It... it had these long arms and... it didn't have a face." Joyce exclaimed , Jonathan walked away. Y/n took a seat on the sofa and put his head in his hands
"It didn't have a face? Joyce." Hopper said
"It didnt have a face" she mummers, sinking down onto the sofa next to
"Joyce, listen to me, listen to me. After sarah... i saw her, too. And i heard her. I didnt know what was real. And then i figured out that it was all in my mind. And i had to pack all that away. Otherwise, i was gonna gall down a hole... that i couldn't get out of." Hopper explained, slowly realising y/n was there.
"No, you're... you're talking about grief. This is different." Joyce says.
"Im just saying that you-" hopper starts
"No, i know what you're saying, Hop. I swear to you, I know what I saw. And i'm not crazy." Joyce sniffled
"Im not saying that your crazy." Hopper reassured her.
"No... you are. And I understand, but... God, I... i need you to believe me. Please. Please..." joyce cried
"Listen... i think you should go to the morgue tomorrow and see him for yourself. It'll give you the answers that you need. But tonight... i want you to try snd get some sleep, if you can. And i need to talk to this fella" hopper tells her, looking at y/n, the two of them walking outside.
"Who are you kid" hopper asked
"Y/n" he answered
"Did you steal from bennys a few days ago?" He said to the boy
"No." Y/n says, emotionless.
"Well, im gonna take you back to your parents house so you dont bother joyce, okay?" Hopper declared
"No, i dont have parents, joyce is taking care of me" y/n said. Hopper sighed and sent the boy inside."Y/n, go to my room" joyce croaked as he walked in, he sighed and walked to joyces room, settling down on the bed. He began to cry. He thought he was able to save will. He teleported out into the woods, finding a tent called 'castle byers' it was where he saw will in a trance he had. He could stay there.
Them came the morning, he was sat in the tent, hearing a car drive away. That must be the them. He got up and started walking around. He should go back to mikes. To see el. The wind turned around him. It turned and twisted. And the next second he was outside of mikes house. 5 kids were walking out the house. Eleven spotted you and instantly hugged you
"Three!" She yelled hugging tightly
"Its y/n now, el, but its great to see you" he smiled, hugging her back.
"Where are we going?" Y/n asked confused
"The school, will isnt dead" mike told him
"He isn't?" Y/n exclaimed in shock.
"No,"
"I need to tell joyce-" y/n quickly said
"No, you cant tell anyone. Come with us. You can go on the back of dustins bike" mike exclaimed. Y/n nodded and they began riding the bikes to school."Olay, remember if anyone sees us, look sad," mike tells them. Something plays about an assembly for will but nobody really pays attention. Mike goes to open a door.
"Its locked" he sighed.
"You think you can open it with your powers?" Dustin asked. Y/ns eyes widened. She told them?!
"Boys?" A teacher said as he comes round the corner.
"Hey- mr clarke-" lucas quickly said
"Assembly's about to start" mr clarke tells them.
"We know. We're just, you know..." mike starts.
"Upset" lucas finishes.
"Yeah, definitely upset" dustin stammers
"We need some alone time" mike sighed
"To cry" dustin added
"Yeah, listen... i get it. I do. I know how hard this is, but lets just be there for Will, huh? And then, the heathkit is all yours for the rest of the day. What do you say?" Mr clarke told them. Throwing mike the keys.
"I don't believe we've met. What's your names?" Mr clarke starts
"Elev-"
"Eleanor! And y/n! Their my, uh-" mike exclaimed
"Cousins" lucas said
"Second cousins" dustin added
"Their here for wills funeral" mike sighed.
"Ah, well, welcome to Hawkins Middle, Eleanor, y/n. I wish you were here under better circumstances." Mr clarke said
"Thank you" they said in unison.
"Where are you from exactly?" He asked
"Bad place-" she began
"Sweden!" Dustin beckoned.
"I have alot of swedish family" mike said after.
"She hates it there" dustin added
"Cold" lucas says
"Subzero"dustin told him.
"Shall we?" Mr clarke asked
"Yup!" Lucas said instantly. All of them began walking away"In times like these its important we come together as a community. We come-" the principal was saying, but the door banged and in came the group. Everyone looked at them
"Abort" dustin whispered turning around but lucas pushed him back and they walked to their seats
"We come together to heal... we come together to grieve. Will byers death is an unexplainable tragedy. Will was an exceptional student and a wonderful friend to all of us. Its impossible to express the hole his loss will leave in our community. Id like to introduce you to Sandy Sloane. Shes a local grief counsellor from the church over in Jonesboro. But before she comes up here. I just want those of you who are having trouble dealing with this tragic loss..." The principal continues.
"Look at these fakers" mike said, pointing to troy
"They probably didn't even know his name till today" lucas added, they all listened to what was said
"Who is interested in this? This is so stupid. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah" troy laughed.
"Oh, he was such a great student. Oh hes going to leave a hole in the community." Troy mocked. Y/n rolled his eyes at the patheticness.
"Mouth breather" el then said. Mike turned to her and she sat up, going back to listening to the principal.The sound if shoes hitting the hard wood echoed as the bell rung. Chatter filling up the room.
"Hey! Hey!" Mike called out, walking towards the two males
"Hey, troy!" He exclaimed, the boys turned around to face them
"You... you think this is funny?" Mike asked them, annoyed
"What'd you say, wheeler?" Troy then questioned, staring at the boy in disgust.
"I saw you guys laughing over there. And i think thats a real messed up thing to do." Mike stammered
"Didnt you listen to the counsellor, wheeler? Grief shows itself in funny ways." James said
"Besides, what's there to be sad about, anyway? Will's in fairyland now, right? Flying around with all the other little fairies. All happy and gay!" Troy laughed, imitating a fairy. The bullies turned around and started walking away, this is when mike went over and pushed troy, him falling to the ground. Troy grunted and looked straight up at mike, clambering up off the floor
"You're dead wheeler! Dead!" He yelled out, running towards mike but stopping instantly. All the kids stood and stared at him confused. Y/n looked to his sister whose nose was bleeding.
"Dude, Troy peed himself!" A kid yelled from the crowd of students. Troy had pee dripping down his leg, all the kids began to laugh. Mike turned around to see el smile and wipe her nose, walking away.
"Hey! Whats going on here!" A teacher yelled, the kids began to run, lucas realised mike wasnt running so he ran to him
"Dude, lets go!" He said, the group running out of the hall."Come on" mike said, the group piling in. sitting round the radio
"Now what?" Dustin asked
"She'll find him" mike told the group, turning it on
"Right el?" Mike said, radio frequencies turning echoed as they look at el. She closes her eyes
"She's doing it! Shes finding him!" Mike exclaimed
"This is crazy." Dustin said
"Calm down. She just closed her eyes." Lucas tells them, the boys gasp as the lightbulb shatters.
"Holy..." dustin starts. Loud banging is heard from the radio. All the boys getting closer with each bang.
"What is that?" Dustin asked, the clanging continued
"Mom?" Will said through the radio. Y/n could sense someone else could hear him. Joyce.
"No way!" Lucas exclaimed.
"Mom... please... mom" will whimpered
"Will!"
"Will, its us! Are you there?" Lucas yelled
"Can you hear us? We're here!" Then dustin.
"Hello? Mom?" A distorted will said.
"Why cant he hear us?" Lucas asked
"I dont know!" Mike responded.
"Mom, its coming! Its like home, but its so dark... its so dark and empty. And its cold! Mom? Mom! Mom, please!" Will yelled. Hes in. Hes in the upside down. The fuses were blowing and the boys - apart from y/n - yelp out. A fire burns, dustin launches for the fire extinguisher and y/n stands next to el, whose still on the chair. The alarm blared as the dustin puts out the fire
"You did well, so... well" y/n tells el
"El are you okay?" Mike asked her, coming infront of y/n
"Oh-" lucas exclaimed, looking worried, el looked like she was about to pass out, she was pale and drousy.
"Can you move?" Mike asked, she didn't respond at all
"Here, help her up." Mike said, getting lucas to help him,"This way!" Mike said, they pushed el on a cart, turning the opposite way to the fire exit.
