There's no crying wolves now
'Cause the truth has settled in
Hiding under goose down
For your nightmare to begin
Max found herself at Skull Rock.
On full moons, you could hear wolves howling throughout the woods. The only wolfpack left in Indiana that had somehow escaped everyone but the town's notice. The wolves were gone now. Had up and disappeared four years ago.
Max had questioned why they left then, instead of when this whole mess started, but then she realized the truth. Wolves were smarter than humans.
The wolves had stayed because they'd been able to handle past threats. The wolves left because they knew that Hawkins was no longer safe.
Max settled herself at the base of Skull Rock, feeling like she was surrounded by a think blanket, blocking out all her senses. Vecna and the bodies of her friends were standing a ways off, staring her down.
"Alright you demon." Max sighed. "Let's start this nightmare so I can die in my sleep peacefully."
There's no crying wolves now
