Everybody Wants To Rule The World

027

"I don't understand what happened to that car?" Robin's voice says out loud, and this causes Steve and Marie to pull away from one another. 

"El has superpowers." Dustins says to the girl, and Marie looked at Steve's friend.

"I'm sorry." She says, and Steve, who had pulled Marie into his side, answered her.

"Superpowers. She threw it with her mind. C'mon catch up." Steve says, and Robin looks at the young girl which he had pointed at.

"That's El?" Erica's voice asks, and that all nodded their heads.

"Who's El?" Robin asks, and Nancy looks at Robin, dumbfounded by her prescence next to Steve and Marie.

"I'm sorry, who are you?" Nancy asked, and Marie looked at her friend.

"This is Robin, she works with Steve." Marie introduces her friend to Nancy, and Nancy looked at Marie.

"Trust me, she's cool." Marie says, and Nancy nods her head.

"She cracked the top secret code." Dustin says, and Steve nods his head. Squeezing Marie closer to him, and she looked up at him.

"Which is how we found out about the Russians." Steve says to the group, and Jonathan looks around and asks.

"Russians? Wait what Russians?" He asks, and Steve points to the men that El had hit with the car she had sent flying.

"The Russians!" Steve says, and Jonathan looks at him.

"Those were Russians?" Marie asks, and Steve looks down at her.

"Some of them." He says back to his girlfriend, and Marie looked back at the men, shivering at the thought of Russians being in Hawkins.

"What are you talking about?" Nancy asked, and Dustin just stared at them.

"Didn't you hear our code red?" Dustins asks, and Marie stares at her little brother.

"Yeah, but we couldn't understand what you were saying." Marie says to her brother, and he looked pissed.

"Goddamn low battery." He looked down at his hands, and Steve stepped closer to him with Marie following him.

"How many times do I have to tell you with the low battery?" He reprimands his best friend, and Dustin stares at him.

"Well, everything worked out, didn't it?" He says, and Marie looked at him.

"Worked out? You guys almost died, and look at Steve!" She says to her brother, and Dustin tried not to look her in the eyes.

"Yeah, but we didn't, did we? And he's alive." He pointed out, and Marie rolled her eyes and groaned.

Everyone began to argue at this point, but Marie's eye caught El. She had moved away from the group, her hands on her ears, and she looked tired. Then she fell, and Marie peeled herself from Steve's side.

"Eleven!" She yells out to the girl as she runs over to her, and she rolled her over onto her back. 

Marie's back was facing a glass window, and Steve came to her right side. Marie pulled El into her lap, and pushed her hair out of her face, and El gave her a look.

"Get that off her leg!" Marie yelled out, and Jonathan pulled the bandage away from her wound, and they all gasped. Marie felt herself gag, and she had to look away.

Marie looked back at the wound, and that's when everyone watched something move inside of it. Marie's eyes widened, and she looked up to meet eyes with Jonathan.

"We're going to have take it out." Was all she said to him, and he stood up and ran into the food court. 

"Okay, El, I need you to stay awake. I need you to look at me." Marie says as she looks down at the young girl, and she kept pushing her hair back.
