Isabelle Hopper and Synthia Harrington walked down the halls of Hawkins High, while everyone buzzed about Will Byers disappearance when they heard a voice they immediately recognized as one of Steve's idiot friends.
"Hey Witch Harrington, isn't time for you to find your parents now. Stop making the harringtons look like freaks." Tommy said
"That's weird because your mom, sister and girlfriend all like when I'm freaky." Synthia retorted
"What the hell did you just say, witch?"
"Syn!" Isabelle Scolded
"You heard me. Or is your brain so small your head shrunk with it."
"At least I know my parents, witch."
Tommy turned around and Synthia is about to beat his ass but Isabelle pulls her back.
"Come on Syn. He's not worth it."
"Why not?"
"Because my dad is the chief of police and I don't want him to arrest you."
"I wouldn't even have to even touch him. Isabelle, With a flick of my wrist I could light him on fire."
"Why is your first solution to anything is always to light something or some one on fire."
"Better question is why isn't it yours."
"Synthia we have to stay hidden which means no powers. And then we'll end up right back where we started and you know what happened last time."
"Fine."
"Good."
She saw that Tommy was about to open his locker and Synthia's hand started to glow a little bit of orange making Tommy's locker hit him right in the face.
"Whoops, my hand slipped." Synthia said
Gym class was okay for the girls. Both were good at the class but today instead of running the mile,they would walk it so they could talk about Synthia's theory.
"So you think the upside down is in hawkins? Maybe you're worse than I thought." Isabelle said
"I don't know how to explain it. I've been connected to the upside down ever since I escaped it and last night it felt like my whole body was being burned, my senses were on overdrive."
"You know what that can also be a result of? Lack of sleep, which you've had a lot lately. Just relax."
Synthia arrived home and started feeling a sharp ringing in her ears. something that hasn't happened since she escaped the upside down, 2 years ago. She knew the upside down was in hawkins now. Her thoughts were interrupted by Steve slamming the front door open and running up the stairs angrily. She knew it was because of today. He slammed open the door to her room.
"What the hell?" Steve yelled
"Steve, I don't have time for this." She replied as she started feeling a loss of control. She had to get out of there. She couldn't lose control of her powers.
"Bullshit you don't have time."
"Steve, believe it or not. I need to go." She said, trying to leave. She was trying to keep her powers under control.
"Bull shit. Hey come back here, Synthia. You would be dead without me."
He always used that to win arguments between them. Synthia was a ticking time bomb. She was trying to keep him safe from her. So she did what she did best, she ran.
Down the stairs, out the door, and through the streets. All while Steve was screaming at her to stop. She didn't. She kept on running and running until she was secluded.
She let out a blast of orange energy out. Releasing all the pain she felt out, thankful she didn't hurt anyone.
She knew this was the upside down. She felt so alone with her monsters. With her demons. With her memories.
Although what was the difference between the 3? They all began and ended the same. She was a monster. She didn't know much about her abilities but what she did know was that she was dangerous. Destructive. Deadly.
She was simply too powerful to exist. She was born with the ability to bring pain and with the help of a certain scientist, she became a monster. Just like the creatures in the upside down that she was sacrificed to. But this time she wouldn't run, she would fight them.
