MIKE'S P.O.V
I sit waiting under our carving tree, looking up at the blue sky. Where are they? The carving tree wasn't that far away from where we found el. It was the biggest tree on Mirkwood. Years of memories was carved in its trunk. Stick figures of knights and dragons was carved along with our names next to the ones we drew. I walk around to the back. Carved in the wood was a picture of el. A picture of the last time I saw her. She's looking back at me, sadness filling her eyes. Under was my signature. "Mike Wheeler." I slowly rub my thumb around her face. I miss her so much. "BOO!" I scream and turn around to see Dustin behind me along with Will and Lucas, laughing their butts off. "Not funny guys!" I said. "It was SO funny!" Lucas said laughing. Will then saw what I was looking at, then stopped laughing. So did the others. I break the silence. "What took you guys so long?"
"Algebra homework." They all said at the same time. We all sit in a circle under the tree. "So what is your plan?" Will asks. "Well you know how el is alive, right?" I say. "I guess" Lucas says. "Well you know how much eleven loves eggos? What if we get a box, put some eggos in it, and wait until el eats them, and then we can bring her home!" They all looked bewildered. "You can only hear things in the upside down, not see them!" Lucas says. "Really Lucas? If she can teleport INTO a different dimension, I'm sure she can teleport OUT." I say. "If she can teleport out why hasn't she just went back to your house?" Dustin asks. "I don't know. Maybe she's scared, or lost. The main thing is I know she's alive!" I say.
"You know what, I'll go with your plan ONE TIME. But if this whole thing messes up, IM DONE." Lucas says.
"Fine."
"Well what can we store the eggos in?" Will asks.
"Our weapon supply box!" Dustin exclaims. The weapon supply box was a box we used to store weapons we made when we were little. We liked to have fake wars back then.
We all run towards the box, which wasn't even 2 yards away. It was a small wooden crate implanted in the ground. We opened it up to see if there was anything inside. We were surprised when we saw there was. But it wasn't weapons. I look around. "An empty spaghetti container? Mashed potatoes?" I say. "And..." Dustin says. "A half eaten eggo.." we all say. "That means." Lucas says. "Oh man." Says Dustin. My eyes widen. Els alive. She's really alive. But who put those eggos down? Who else's knows about el being alive? All of a sudden we all hear a crackle of a stick and leaves behind us. Uh-oh. I look up to see Wills, Lucas's, and Dustins eyes wide. "I can find her." Says a familiar voice. I slowly turn around. There standing 3 feet away from us was a 9 year old little girl, with short blonde hair, and blue eyes.
