Into The Light (Stranger Things)

Chapter 9

Your POV

It was cold and dark, My head was spinning and my vision was fuzzy. Unlike anything I've ever felt, the pain was unhuman, like a tornado inside my head, it was sore and throbbing.

I stayed on the ground, rubbing a spot on my head, the place was all so familiar yet all so not. It was dark, and gloomy, like no one had lived here, a paper town? I sat up hearing noises, noises I've heard before, unlike any other.

I scurried to find a place to hide, where I can calm down and regain myself to my normal state. The ground felt almost like mush at some point. I looked around knowing where I was, Will's room.

But none of the guys were here, not even Joyce. I found a mirror in the bathroom, seeing my reflection, but it didn't look good, a saw a cut across my head just above my eye.

I crouched down in pain, rocking myself back and forth, before hearing my name being called. I nearly fainted, never would I of though in a dark and gloomy place would someone be here with me, isn't this a dream?

I stayed in the bathroom, leaning against a wall, with knees to my face, hovering on the spot. Not knowing what to do, I felt warmth coming up my arm, I stopped sobbing and looked up.

I screamed to the top of my lungs, seeing Will standing above me, his colorful vest is what made me realize it was him. I calmed myself down getting a steady hear beat. He crouched down beside me, staring at me, like he hasn't seen me in forever.

"W-will..." I said, reaching out to touch his hand, I didn't know if this was real, once I felt him and realized it was actually him. I got up and hugged him, it seemed like he didn't know what was going on till, he finally wrapped his arms around me.

"It's really me, Y/N." I heard his voice, I smiled letting go seeing him still crouched beside me.

"H-how did you get here?" I asked Will, he looked around the place, before sitting beside me on the floor of his bathroom.

"The Demogorgon got me!" Is all he said, nothing more, nothing less... I was confused, what is he talking about.

"What do you mean?" I asked, he looked at me as confused as I was, before explaining to me, the night that we played D & D, he let the Demogorgon out, instead of saving himself. I understood what he meant, but why did it come for me?

"How'd I get here?" I asked, it looked like he knew the answer, but didn't want to say.

"I saw you!" Is all he said, I backed away from him, he saw me? Like does he spy on me, gross. I was thinking of so many things, I tuned Will out.

"The Light, In my room, was partially my fault. I saw you and the guys there, when you touched the light, I got a spark. I felt your presence and pulled you into the light." Will was saying, I nodded moving closer to him each and every time I heard a sound.

"Will, are we gonna live? Or even make it out of here, alive?" I asked, he looked stunned, like he was ever planning or thinking about it.

"Course we will, I'm gonna make sure we do." He said giving me a hug, I knew that he was gonna look out for me and I will do the same. What I was really thinking about is if he saw El and I talking about him the other night, and me saying that I have a tiny, big crush on him.

"You okay?" Will asked me, I nodded, getting up. I was not staying here, especially if that thing is after us. I walked out of the bathroom, getting scared and jumping back, running into Will. He laughed at me, knowing what gets me going.

"Will!" I yelled, pushing away from me, running out of the house down the road. He eventually caught up to me, we walked down what was the road to Will's house. There was honestly nothing to do at this moment.

I walked around, skipping, jogging doing anything to keep me moving. Will stopped and stared at me, that's all he did, I looked at him laughing, before he ran over to me, zipping his vest up, laughing as well. We get along too well, to just start laughing at each other for no reason.

Mike's POV

"The light...Look!" I said, the boys looked at the lights in Will's room flicker on and off, we called our for Y/N, not seeing her. This was all too strange in so many ways, I got scared and didn't know what to do.

"Bye Mrs Byers!" The three of us said, walking in a group so if she noticed Y/N gone, it wouldn't look like it. We got on our bikes riding down the road, rushing back to Y/N place to get El. School has an Hour left, so were just gonna be put as 'Absent'.

My mom, at the moment doesn't mind that I stay home. She knows what I'm going through with loosing Will, and all. She thinks there's more to it, but what she won't know won't kill her.

We got to her house, walking around back because the front door is locked. I've tried before, I come here sometimes at Night, because I kinda sort of have a crush on this girl...

We walked in from the back hearing a thump upstairs, El. We ran up the stairs, seeing somethings we didn't want to see. We busted the door open hearing moans, and screams, coming from two rooms...

"Your gonna get it!" A guy said, for walking in on him. We closed the door tight not wanting to see that again, but couldn't get away from it. We walked to the next room trying to find El.

What I saw scared me for life, no way was this getting out easily. My jaw dropped, My sister was in that room with the biggest mouth breather in this town.

"Gross!" We said, shaking our heads. We saw another door open, El walked out covering her ears. I felt bad for her at this present moment.

"Mike! Get out of here!" Nancy said yelling at me, when mom hears about this she won't be going anywhere.

We ran downstairs to the living room. Steve's friends left the house leaving Nancy upstairs and Steve came down, staring us down only wearing pants. I shrugged and couldn't get that picture out of my head, what if. What if they did that in my house, beside my room. I was shook and couldn't stand seeing this let alone keep imagining it.

I felt my body hit the floor, knocking me out cold, seeing nothing but stars....
