Jessica Hernandez.
Best friends with Mike Wheeler, Will Byers, Lucas Sinclair and Dustin Henderson.
A real pottymouth.
Known as the Scholar of the group.

Mike looked at Jess, the gun she had left alone, thankfully the safety on.
"Yeah, I'm scared too." Jess whispered.
She looked at the two and grabbed her backpack, unzipping it and digging into the backpack until she found two blue in and out loop bracelets, charms dangling from them.
"Here, I made them for both of you." she whispered.
Mike took his, smiling at the charms.
It was all their nicknames with a little charm that represents them.
Dangling from the MIKE name was a Supercomm charm.
Dangling from the EL name was an Eggo charm.
And dangling from the JESS name was a Colombian flag charm.
"Pretty." El whispered, putting it on.
"What about you?" Mike asked.
Jess pulled down the left sleeve of her flannel, her own on her wrist.
They smiled at each other.
"Mike, are you there? Mike?"
Jess looked up, her eyebrows furrowing.
"You guys hear that?" Dustin asked.
"Mike, it's me, Nancy."
Mike grabbed his backpack, pulling out his Supercomm.
"Mike, are you there? Answer. Mike, we need you to answer."
"Is that your sister?" Lucas asked, causing Jess to furrow her eyebrows.
"This is an emergency, Mike. Do you copy? Mike, do you copy?"
"Okay, this is really weird." Dustin says.
"Really." Jess agreed.
Lucas grabbed the Supercomm, but Mike grabbed it back.
"Don't answer."
"She said it was an emergency."
"What if it's a trick?"
"It's your sister!"
"What if the bad people kidnapped her? What if they're forcing her to say this?"
"I need you to answer."
"It's like Lando Clarissian." Dustin says, Jess nodding.
"Don't answer."
"We need to know that you're there, Mike."
Jess froze when a new voice came in.
"Listen, kid, this is the Chief. If you're there, pick up. We know you're in trouble and we know about the girl."
Jess exchanged glances with the boys.
"Why is she with the Chief?" Lucas asked.
