Mike's POV-

I gulped as Nancy guided me through the halls. I was met with so many stares from people that didn't know who I was it was really uncomfortable.

"Ok, Mike remember... Your a girl..." Nancy said, I turned my head towards her in disbelief.

"What?! No!" I said

"Mike, you have to its more believable!" Nancy whispered sternly.

"I'm not doing that! I-" I began, but then I heard a voice.

"Who is this?" A voice said, I looked up and smiled slightly and uncomfortably.

"Oh. This is the new... Child. She's number..." Nancy spoke, trailing off, he looked at us before finishing for us.

"Thirteen?"

"Yep! Thirteen!" Nancy laughed awkwardly.

"You don't look like a girl..." He stated, bending down towards me. I backed away slightly. Nancy elbowed me from behind and I gulped.

"Yep... I'm all girl!" I said high-pitched, wanting to punch Nancy.

"Ok... Carry on." He said confused, standing up straighter and walking away.

"I am getting you back for this" snapped at her, she just looked ahead and pushed me.

"Yeah ok" she mumbled as she looked around for the door. Ah!" She said, moving over to it, it was open and we looked at it confused.

"Why would it be open?" She asked "if there's still creatures...." She sighed as she pulled out two guns, loading one and holding the other out for me.

"Woah! I'm not using that!" I almost yelled.

"Ya know... For someone who wants to find Eleven so bad, isn't very good at going along with saving her." She stated. I groaned and grabbed it, it was already loaded.

"I don't even know how to use it." I mumbled, holding it up.

"You just... Point and shoot." Nancy said, holding hers up as well, she slowly walked through the doors. "Stay behind me."

I nodded as we slowly made our way down the hall. It was dark and specks floated around us, She looked around worriedly.

"This isn't right where is everyone?" She asked as she made it to the elevator. It was there like Hopper said.

"I know..." I answered as she pushed the button. We waited for the elevator patiently, well she did.

"Mike calm down!" Nancy tried to get me to relax.

"Don't you mean thirteen?" I snapped. She rolled her eyes and snickered as the elevator opened and we walked in, hitting the button again. The elevator closed.

"It's not funny you know. Hopper said that they were starting to test on boys too. There was no reason I had to act like a girl." I said, looking ahead.
"I'm sorry Mike. They have more girls then guys. I just assumed that it would be better that way.

"He believed it too." I complained. Do I really look like a girl?

"Don't worry Mike. you don't look like a girl." She said, basically reading my mind. I sighed as it finally opened and Nancy held up her gun, I gripped mine as I followed her out, looking around. It was a hallway, but as we turned the corner it was a whole lab.

"That must be the gate." Nancy said, walking over to a big blob in the wall, I looked at it in disqust.

"We have to go through that?" I asked, scrunching my nose.

"Hold it right there!"

Eleven's POV-

"Make this fly." Twelve said, looking at Eleven and pointing at an old tv that sat in their living room. It didn't work so they didn't care if I tried to make it fly. I looked at it and sighed before glaring at it and trying to get it to float, it slowly started to and they both stared in awe, like their powers weren't better than mine or something.

I started feeling light headed and dropped it, falling back a bit. They both looked at me.

"Why did you stop?" Twelve asked, holding her hands up, she looked at me and then stopped.

"You're uh... Nose is bleeding" she spoke. I quickly wiped my nose as Teen ran over.

"are you ok?" She asked worriedly, turning my face to hers, looking at my nose.

"Dang Teen, why so nosy?" Twelve asked, she stopped and laughed, hitting her knee in humor. I thought about it for a second before laughing slightly myself. I don't know what those were called but I knew what she did and I found it a bit funny, I turned my attention back to Teen.

"I'm fine. It happens when I use my powers." I explained quietly. She nodded in understanding and slowly lowered her arms to her sides as I wiped away the blood.

"Well... Who wants food?"

Mike's POV-

I turned around and stared at the people surrounding us. One had a hold of Nancy as she squirmed.

"Get off me you pig!" She snapped, she tried to kick him but it just made him tighten his grip.

"Step away from the gate boy." The same guy from before said, I guess he didn't believe it. "It needs to close."

"Eleven is in there!" I yelled at him. He just glared at me.

"Mike, we lost." Nancy yelled, sighing. No.

"No we didn't. I haven't, not yet." I said, standing up straighter. I looked at the gate. I had to. "I'm sorry Nancy."

"Mike no! Not without someone else!" Nancy tried to yell but I just turned away and breathed.

You can do this Mike.

"Get the boy! Before he gets in!" The guy yelled, I heard footsteps and bolted for the gate.

I collided with the entrance and I felt slime. I almost gagged as I fell onto the ground. I looked around to se so was in the same place, but it was much dirtier, and nobody was there.

"Whoah..."
