chapter 44- the number.

After about half an hour me and will get up and go talk to the others.
We get to where they are and start talking about this things that is going on with eleven.
"Guys I'm gonna go get something to drink I'll be right back." Jonathan says.
"Alright." I say.
He leaves and we keep talking about the situation.
"I mean, I don't think they've thought this through. If this goes on for a month, or months and people can't get a hold of us they're gonna totally freak out! Meanwhile my mom's probably having a panic attack already. And then what about Hawkins? That ladys supposed to keep it contained. Like you can contain any of this without y/n and El! I mean.." will says.
"Yeah.." mike says as he stares at the letter he got from El.
"If you keep staring at that it's not gonna change you know?"
"Yeah.. you're right.."
"You know, you can talk to us if you want to." I say as we sit next to him.
"I know.. it's just.. before the cops came and got her me and El had a bad fight. We never fight.. I mean, we've fought before but like silly fights, stupid fights. But, I don't know, this one just felt more adult like it.. it just felt more real. Like it was a fight that you can't come back from. Maybe I should've said something and if I would've said that thing then maybe she'd want me there with her, wherever she is."
"No, look mike you're gonna see her again. And whatever you didn't say you can say it to her then."
"Wills right. Besides, I know how much you two care about eachother. You two just need to have a conversation to clear everything up you know?"
"Yeah.. yeah."
"She's gonna be okay. She's not in Hawkins. That's what we should be worrying about."
"You don't trust owens?"
"No. I don't know I mean, he's been good to us and good to El but he wasn't able to protect me. That was you guys who saved me. That was you guys." Will says as he holds my hand for comfort.
"Looks like it's gonna be up to us again."
"It always is isn't it?"
"Which is why we can't stay here." Jonathan says as he walks back to the room with his drink and a paper.
"So what's the plan then?" I ask.
"Listen.. let's assume these friends of Owens are telling the truth. We can't call Hawkins without alerting the military, putting El in danger. Fine. Then we'll just go to them."
"Go to Hawkins?"
"How?"
"What are you worried about? Ponch and Jon out there? They're half asleep now watching golf."
"No, Jonathan I mean, we don't have a car or money-"
"Then we'll hail ourselves a ride. A cheap one." He says and then shows us the paper for the food delivery place that argyle works at.
"So you want to order pizza then use argyles van to go back to Hawkins?"
"I mean, do you have another plan?"
"I guess not."
"Alright s then. Let's do this."
Me, will and Mike walk downstairs to where they are.
"Excuse me, sir? .. excuse me, sir?" Mike says.
"What?" The guy asks.
"We're hungry." Will says showing them the paper so we can order pizza.
"I could eat." The guy says and then the other one makes the call and ordered pizza.
We go back upstairs and pack our things for the ride.
Mike and I just get one of our bags we brought from Hawkins with the most important things and then go back to wills room.
"You guys packed already?"
"Yeah, I mean I never really unpacked."
"Same."
"Thanks guys, by the way."
"For what?"
"For knocking some sense into me. I was being a total self pitying idiot."
"Oh, I mean we didn't say it."
"You didn't have to. Hey, also about the last few days-"
"You don't have to say anything. I was being a total jerk to El. I deserved it."
"Don't say that. You didn't deserve any of that ok?"
"Yeah, you didn't deserve anything. Listen the truth is the last year has been weird you know? And I mean, you know, max and Lucas and Dustin they're.. they're great. It's just that it's Hawkins. It nit the same there without you. And I feel like maybe I was worrying too much about El and I don't know, maybe I feel like I kinda lost this friendship on the way. I don't know, does that make sense? I have no idea what's gonna happen next.. but whatever it is I think we should all work together again. I think it would be easier if we're a team. Friends. Best friends."
"Cool."
"Cool."
We hear argyles van pull up.
"That was fast."
"Thirty minutes or less."
"You guys ready?" Jonathan says as he walks to the room.
"Yeah." We all say.
As we go get our bags we hear a gunshot downstairs.
"What the hell was that? Shit! Stay here!"
"What's going on?"
"Shit! Listen, we gotta go! We gotta go right now!"
We run to the living room and one of the guys that were looking after us tells us to hide behind him with our backs to the wall as he tries to shoot the other people that are attacking us.
We hide behind him.
"Follow me!" He says and we follow him.
"What the hell is going on?!"
"Just stay there! Get down! I shoot you run!"
We all make a run for it and leave the house, a few seconds later the guys follows us and we see he's been shit so he help him walk.
Argyles van pulls up and we run over to him.
"Stop the car!" Jonathan saysas we all rush into the van.
"What the hell is going on?" Argyle says.
"Go! Go! Go!"
"Woah is that real blood man?"
"DRIVE!" We all yell.
"Okay, alright but.. oh my god why is that guy holding a gun?!"
"DRIVE!"
"Okay!"
Argyle speeds away from the house and we start driving away to somewhere desert where there isn't anyone for miles.
We've been driving for about like an hour and we get somewhere completely deserted.
"Oh god!"
"Keep pressure on it." Jonathan says as we all try to stop the guys bleeding.
"It's not slowing!"
"Keep putting pressure on it!"
I go through the bags we brought to find my bandages I use on my arm.
"Argyle! Get us to st. Mary's!"
"I don't think prayings gonna help that dude!"
"No you idiot! St.Mary's hospital!"
"No hospital." The guys says.
"What?"
"No hospital. No hospital."
"No we're gonna get you to the hospital."
"You need to warn o- Owens."
"Owens okay."
"The girl.. she's in danger."
"Okay how do we find Owens?"
"Nina. Nina."
"Nina who's nina?"
"Come on. A pen." They say getting a pen so he can write down coordinates.
I get the bandages and start using them on him.
"Here's the number.."
"He wants to write us something!"
"Grab a magazine or something! Will get something!"
"He's really bleeding a lot!"
"Right here! Place the number!"
"Hey! Come on! Hold on!"
I finish bandaging him but it's too late. He lost too much blood.
"Oh shit! Yo yo yo yo wait. Why's he so quiet back there huh? Yo is he dead? Jesus man! Talk to me! Shit!"
"We should get off the road." Jonathan says as he looks back at the car following us.
"Argyle, argyle get off the road now!"
"Shit he's dead isn't he? This is real bad!"
"GET OFF THE ROAD!" We all yell.
Argyle gets off the road like we asked and we speed away from the car. A few hours of driving later we get to this place thats an abandoned old dump for cars no one uses anymore since it's completely deserted from any humans.
We finally stop the car and get out. We decide to bury the guy.
We dig a bid enough hole to put him inside and then start filling it up to finish burying him.
"Oh man, okay. This is not the way it's supposed to go okay? Oh man oh man oh man.. okay this is so messed up man this is so messed up this is so messed up! Okay. Dudes probably got like a family, kids, you know all that shit. We gotta go to the cops with this man. We gotta lay it all on em. Your superpowers girlfriend and boyfriend, bad government dudes the upsidedown dimension planet thing-"
"No!" We say.
"But.. but listen! The bad government dudes are after your super girlfriend right? Right? Okay so maybe cops can help us find out where she is! They're gonna kill her man! If they kill her they're gonna kill us, expecialy wills boyfriend!"
"Hey!"
"Actually, they might kill us before they kill her! I dunno man?"
"Argyle!"
"Actually I don't know what order they're gonna go-"
"Listen! Hey!"
"What?!"
"Look, I think we can figure this out okay? We just gotta open our minds."
"Open out minds? That's an open grave Infront of me man! Open my mind what are you talking about?"
"Hey, dude! Listen! Hey! Just relax okay? Why don't you go to the clean.. and do your thing huh?"
"Purple palm tree delight.'
"Right."
"Okay.. I'm sorry." Argyle says as he walks away to the van.
"You're fine."
"Jonathan." Will says.
"Yeah?"
"More weed? Is that really a good idea now?"
"Got a better idea to keep him calm? Let's just get this done."
We finish burying the guys and then finally relax a bit and decide to stay here for a few minutes to recompose ourselves. I walk away from everyone and sit down in a place they can't see me. I finally take a deep breath and stop to think for a minute.
I can't help but feel bad that I'm not there with El, she didn't need to go alone.. if only I could get my powers back I mean then id finally be useful. I'm honestly just a waste of space if I don't have them.. I mean, if she's gonna train to get her powers back that must mean I can try to get them back too, right?
I take my now empty soda can and set it on the ground Infront of me so I can try to crush it with my powers like me and El used to do.
A minute goes by and nothing's happened. I feel so useless.. god at this point I'm just fucking irritated. Why can I do anything right?! Why do I have to be so goddamn weak? What is it gonna take for me to feel like I have any part in this world?
I get irritated and stand up then turn around to walk back to the others in an annoyed way but as soon as I turn my back to the can I hear something. I look back at the can and it's now a bit crushed. Not a lot but there's a visible difference..
I get pulled out of my thoughts when will walks over to me.
"You okay?" Will asks.
"Yeah.."
"I know this is all very stressful.. if you need to talk please talk to me ok? I care about you."
"I know.. thank you will. I love you." I say giving him a hug.
"I love you too. -He says with a cute smile then kisses me.- C'mon Mike said he thought of something." He says as he holds my hand and we walk back to the others.
Mike gets the pen that doesn't work that the guy gave us and opens it to see if there's anything inside and we see there's a small paper that fell out so we get it.
"Something fell out of that pen man."
"What is it?"
"It's the number! We've had it this whole time."
"We got his digits man?"
We get back into the van and drive until we see a phone booth.
"Theres one!"
"Slow down!"
"Stop barking orders man!"
They all get out of the van and go to the phone booth.
Before I also get out and walk with them I get this agonizing headache all of the sudden.
"Agh fuck." I say in pain as I hold my head.
I suddenly get these flashes that are almost like a flashback from when I lived in the lab. I see me and the other kids walking to the room with the rainbow and one of the guys that took care of us. I can't really remember his name tho.. I do remember him though, he was tall and had blond hair and blue eyes. He was nicer to me and El for some reason..
The flashbacks end and I feel the pain going away. I take a few seconds to recompose myself. I don't want to let the others know about this yet because I don't know what it means. What if this is eleven trying to show me what she's seeing? I don't know.
I finally get out of the van and go over to them. They try to call the number from the paper and we discover that the number were calling isn't a phone but a computer.
"I don't know if Nina's a computer like Joshua or Owens lab but the unknown hero agent man gave us access to it for a reason. We just need to find the computer. We find Owens then we warn him. Then we warn eleven. I just need a hacker. The only hacker that I know lives.. in Utah." Mike says showing us the place on the map.
"Wait, Utah?"
"Salt lake city to be specific."
"Oh my god.."
"What? Why on my god?"
"Turn around look at what you see~" will sings in a silly tone making me laugh.
"Oh no.."
"Neverending story. That scared the shut out of me. The nothing, man? That's some proper existential shit dude."
"You can't be serious."
"I think they're pretty serious." I say with a chuckle.
"Well If we take the i- 15 north well get there by morning."
"Oh you're being serious?"
"I know it sounds insane but Suzie save the world last year. Maybe she can save it again."
"Fine. Let's go then."
We get back to the car and start driving to Utah.
Since it's a long drive we put the radio on and rest until we arrive.
It's nighttime now and I end up falling asleep with my head resting on wills shoulders as I hold his hand.
WILLS POV:
I notice y/n fell asleep and I smile at how cute he is. I let him rest there and keep holding his hand.
"You know, you two dudes are pretty cute together man." Argyle says.
"Thanks." I say blushing and smiling.
Y/NS POV:
~in a dream.~
I wake up in this empty black void. It's like where I would end up while using my powers. I look around and see eleven standing there waiting for me.
"El? You're here! Are you okay??" I say as I run to her and hug her.
"I need to show you something." She says.
"Okay."
"Give me your hand."
I give her my hand and suddenly I'm back at the lab. I look at the mirror and see my reflection from when I lived there. I look over and see eleven but she also looks younger. We're in the rainbow room and that guy I say in the flashbacks is kneeling down and talking to us. He then smiles and gets back up and walks out of the room. Almost immediately the other kids come up to us and start bullying us with their powers, using them to throw us on the floor.
In a blink of an eye me and eleven are alone in the room again. We both walk out and wonder the hallways of the lab. We see that guy walking over to us with a smile. He tells us something but I can't make out what he's saying. He then looks behind us and walks away. I don't know why but I feel like I shouldnt trust him.. We look to where he was looking and see papa.. a wave of fear hits me and I feel myself having a panic attack.
~end of dream.~
I wake up to will gently shaking me awake.
"Hey, are you okay? You seemed like you were having a bad nightmare." Will says soflty in a concerned tone.
"Y-yeah.. I'm fine. Sorry about that."
"It's okay. You wanna talk about it?"
"No.. it's fine. I'm okay." I say.
"Okay." He says hugging me.
I calm down a bit and act like nothing happened but I still wonder what are these visions I keep getting and what they all mean..
