Asher POV

"Are you okay?" I asked worriedly as I looked at her up and down and spotted the bandage wrapped around her shoulder, "What happened?" I asked gently placing my hand on the bandage.

"Tommy, he almost killed me luckily Ziggy managed to pull me away in time, but he managed to slash my shoulder with his axe." Maya explained as I remove my hand from her bandage and looking and looked behind Maya to see Ziggy and Cindy hugging.

I turn my attention back to Maya when I hear her hiss in pain and see her hand on the bandage.

I remove her hand and place my hand on the bandage.

"I'm going to heal you. Did you forget I have the ability to heal wounds." I remind her in an obvious tone just as about to heal her. Maya stops me by moving my hand away from her wound.

"What are you doing?" I asked confused why Maya stopped me, "It's a minor injury you don't need to heal me." she assured me.

"Also, we need to think what you're going to tell Ziggy and Cindy when they ask you how you did you lift Tommy from the ground and slammed him on the wall." Maya tells me and looks at the unconscious Tommy laying on the floor.

"I trust them to tell them the truth sure I don't know Cindy well, but I do trust her not tell anyone." I tell her making Maya look uneasy, "Okay you can tell them you have powers just make sure not to tell them about you escaping the lab and everything that Nick and I told you about El and Hawkins Lab, you cannot tell them, okay." Maya sternly tells me.

"I'm going to check in the back if there is any rope so I can tie up Tommy while he is unconscious."

I nod glad that Maya did not argue on my decision to tell Ziggy and Cindy that I have powers. I understood that Maya wanted to keep the two in the dark for their safety which I understand but even so I would've still told them I have powers since there is no lie that can explain what they witnessed me do.

I take a deep breath to calm my nerves before walking back to Ziggy and Cindy, the two waiting for me to come back.

"So, I know you have quest- "

"Yeah, for starters how did you manage to do what you did to tommy?" Ziggy asked, cutting me off.

Ziggy received an elbow to the rib from Cindy whispering to her to "behave".

Ziggy scowls and looks behind me. I turn around and see she is looking at Maya making her squirm from the death stare she is receiving.

"You knew." Ziggy said her voice slightly cracking voice as she shook her head staring at Maya with disappointment Maya look at her with guilt, she then looks at me, "For someone who calls me their friend you sure have a funny way proving it." Ziggy says no longer sounding hurt instead her voice sounded angry.

I just remain silent not knowing what to say that will make her feel better.

Ziggy scoffs crossing her arms looking away from us.

"Zig- "

Maya is interrupted by a loud banging noise coming from were Cindy and I came from.

I turn around pushing Maya behind me. She stood in the middle between Ziggy and Cindy as I stood in front of the three. My arm stretched to keep the three moving further while my other arm stuck out ready to defend them.

A familiar head popped up.

"Hey snitch." Alice said.

I put my hand down as Cindy ran to help Alice up.

"What took you so long?" Cindy asked both now standing up and that's when I remembered Alice leg injury.

"As much as I want to heal Alice, I think it's best if I don't. I need to preserve my energy in case Tommy wakes up."
