THE PARTY PULLED INTO the Starcourt Mall parking lot. Not many cars were in the lot, which was good for the party. 

They walk through the mall, and see strange men in all black, holding guns. They slowly approached a counter of one of the shops in the food court. 

El, using her powers, controlled the display car, making the horn go crazy, which distracted the men away from the counter. 

The men looked up to see Eleven controlling the car, before El picked up the car and flung it across the food court, taking the weird men out with it. The men were presumably dead. 

The group saw Dustin, Gabe, Steve, and Robin. The shocker of it all was Lucas' younger sister, Erica. 

Daisy and Jude felt immediate relief, seeing their brothers again. 

The group ran down the escalator, and greeted the group. 

"You flung that thing like a Hot Wheel!" Dustin laughed, as he ran to hug El and Mike.

Gabe ran to Daisy immediately, and hugged her tightly. 

"Gosh, I'm glad to see you're not dead!" Daisy laughed into Gabe's shoulder. 

"You too!" Gabe smiled. 

The two pulled away, but Daisy whispered in a teasing tone, "Glad you greeted me, before you did Will." 

Daisy smiled as Gabe flushed, he walked over to Will and hugged him tightly. 

"Lucas?" Erica gaped.

"What are you doing here?" Lucas raised his hands.

"Ask them. It's their fault."

"True, yeah. Totally true. It's absolutely our fault." Steve agreed. 

"I don't understand what happened to that car." Robin turned back around from looking at the car.

"El has superpowers."

"I'm sorry?"

"Superpowers. She threw it with her mind. C'mon, catch up." Steve said plainly, as if it was common knowledge.

"That's El?" Erica pointed at the girl.

"Who's El?"

"I'm sorry, who are you?" Nancy gestured towards Robin.

"I'm Robin. I work with Steve." 

"She cracked the top secret code." Dustin smiled. 

"Yeah, which is how we found out about the Russians." Steve said, confusing everyone. 

"Russians? Wait, what Russians?"

"The Russians!" 

"Those were Russians?" Max asked.
