The group formed a defensive circle in the Byers' living room, each one holding a weapon, prepared for any threat. They looked tense, their eyes fixed on the window, listening to the faint screeching sounds outside.

Upon hearing the sudden noise, Lily's eyes immediately darkened, and an unsettling blend of curiosity and fear settled deep within her gut. The group was enveloped by an eerie silence that was interrupted only by the menacing growls of unknown monsters. Their hearts pounded with apprehension as they awaited the source of the terrifying sounds.

The younger teens were startled and screamed when they heard intense growling and loud thudding. They flinched in the direction of the sound. 

The loud snarling came from the front door, causing everyone to quickly turn towards the frightening noise. There was a commotion outside and the creatures were screeching before the sound of glass shattering reached their ears.

Screams left the group's mouths as the limbless body of the figure flew in their direction, rolling on the linoleum before crashing against the wall and knocking over things. 

As the group inched closer to the motionless creature, their eyes were filled with terror and fixed on Its still form. The surrounding space was heavy with their frightened breaths, which only added to the tension of the moment.

"Holy shit."

"Is it dead?"

The sound of a creaking door caught their attention and drew it away from the creature. Fear filled their eyes as the lock turned on its own, causing Nancy and Hopper to aim their weapons at the door. The tense atmosphere intensified as the metal chain slid off, and the door opened gradually.

A girl with short, slicked-back hair confidently walked into the house, wearing a determined expression on her face. The group's eyes softened as they looked at the familiar girl, their gentle gaze reflecting their astonishment.

Lily's previously dark eyes morph back into her gentle shade of gray. A look of utter disbelief twisted her features, conveying her shock. Meanwhile, Eleven's expression altered as well into an intense yearning as she gazed at Lily.

"Eleven?" Lily breathed out, her words more than a whisper, as her eyes widened a few fractions and lips fell apart. "Lils" Eleven's voice caressed Lily's ears, causing her to gasp softly. Her eyes widened and her lips parted as she soaked up the familiar, velvety tones. The sound of Eleven's voice sent shivers down Lily's spine, filling her with a sense of comfort and longing.

As the two young girls locked eyes, their emotions overflowed, and tears began to form. Their faces lit up with radiant smiles, and they hurried towards each other, eager to embrace. With arms wrapped tightly around each other, they reveled in their reunion's pure joy and happiness.

Eleven's body trembled as she let out an audible gasp, her emotions overtaking her as she clung desperately to Lily's neck. Lily reciprocated the embrace by holding onto Eleven's waist, her grip tight with fear that any sudden movement would cause Eleven to disappear once again. The two held onto each other tightly, their connection unbreakable in that moment of vulnerability.
