A Stranger Things Story

Part 1

Life in the Lab wasn't easy. I never liked it; it was lonely. By the age of 12 the man that told me to call him papa had brought along with other children. 18 to be exact. None of them knew i existed except for 001 that was of course only after he started to help papa around the lab. After some years of watching all the children grow, I soon reached the age of 17 quickly noticing that I had stopped growing my curves filled out both in chest and hips after that moment though my body was almost frozen in time with its aging. Soon papa had noticed and became fascinated only to later be left in distraught with One killing all of the children except Eleven. Papa being an unforgiving man he blamed everything on her. Not wanting her to lose control again he focused on her all of the time, soon introducing eleven to me and me to her for the first time. It took a while for Eleven to warm up to me which is reasonable. She still doesn't talk however shows jesters to me to communicate. For some time, we waited in that abandoned lab until one night an accident happened which has led us too now.

"Come on Eleven we must hurry to leave." I ushered in a hushed tone leading her to the pipe we can crawl through to leave but all she did was nod and follow. After quickly finding it I pulled her close knowing there's a chance of me not fitting and having to stay. Just as I let go about speaking, I heard shuffling footsteps and with wide eyes I looked at her one last time before pushing her to and in the tube, she looked back one last time before she left. When she was out of sight, I noticed the footsteps from earlier had begun to close in. Fiercely picking up the pipe cover and placing it back I made my way out of sight climbing the beams as fast as I could. After a while I'd say a good 2 hours they left after one more fast sweep of the place. So slowly making my way down I made my way back to the pipe hurriedly removing the cover and hopping it and if I wasn't there, I'd never have believed it, but I just barely fit with holding my breath and sucking in. And finally, after some time I had made it to the outside world.

Wandering aimlessly around, I stumbled upon a small house with what I think is a green car. Hurrying to the door I knocked and waited and after some time I heard footsteps with the lock clicking. "Hello?" Asked a young man if he was stressed, I could tell he didn't want any visitors. However, despite that he called out a woman's name. As she rounded the corner in her house, she made a 'gasp' noise once she saw me. Opening the door wider and pulling me into her home as she sent the boy to get a towel. "Here" was all he said as he offered it to me.
