Steve was resting in the middle seat of the car laying on Alex as she was trying to heal his injuries. However he then woke up and looked over and saw Mike.

"Nancy?" He asked confusing the boy for his sister.

"No don't touch it." Dustin said as Alex lightly pulled Steve's hand away from his face.

"Hey buddy... you put up a good fight. He kicked your ass but you put up a good fight." Dustin comforted.

"You're gonna keep straight for half a mile then make a left on mount sainai." Lucas directed.

"What's going on?" Steve asked before he began to freak out when he saw Max driving. In an attempt to calm him down Alex ran her fingers through his hair as Dustin convinced him everything was fine.

"Just relax she's driven before." Dustin comforted.

"Yeah in a parking lot." Mike complained not helping the situation. Lucas claimed that "it counts." But it didn't help Steve.

"They were gonna leave you behind. But Alex and I promised they you'd be cool okay?" Dustin insisted.

Everyone then began yelling over each other and Alex scrunched her eyes closed. She hated yelling. They all went quiet when Max screamed "Everybody shut up! I'm trying to focus!"

"Oh wait that's mount Sinai make a left." Lucas exclaimed. "What?" Max asked.

"Make a left!" Lucas repeated. Max then began turning left hitting a mail box making everyone scream.

Once Max had parked with little casualties everyone was shocked they made it out alive.

"Incredible." Mike complimented.

"Told you. Zoomed." Max said as everyone got out of the car. Or fell in Steve's case. Everyone began putting goggles and pieces of fabric around their mouths.

Steve began yelling but everyone ignored him. "Can you deal with him please?" Alex asked Dustin as she walked to where the hole was and jumped down extending her arms out to Mike who threw the one end of the rope down to her.

"Yeah I'm pretty sure it's this way." Mike said pointing the flashlight Don one end of the tunnel.

"You're pretty sure? Or you're certain?" Dustin asked. "I'm 100% sure. Just follow me and you'll know." Mike answered but before he could start walking Steve stopped him.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, hey, hey. I don't think so. Any of you little shits die down here I'm getting the blame. Got it, dipshit? From here on out I'm leading the way! Come on let's go!" Steve ordered. And began walking. Everyone following behind him.

********************

After a few minutes of walking down the tunnel Dustin began screaming for help. Everyone immediately began running to help him. "What happened?" Steve asked.

"It's in my mouth! Some got in my mouth!" He screeched. "I'm okay." He sighed. Everyone began walking away mumbling insults.

"Okay wheeler. I think we found your hub." Steve said as they reached a large area where the tunnels connected.
