btw there's a part three to Crazy Together.

"we gotta go. WE GOTTA GO!" Hopper warns.
the door, across from our hospital room, starts to break.
Hopper lifts sleeping Will up onto his shoulder, Joyce follows behind him, a secure hand on Will. Mike reaches for my hand, nervously.
i look up at him, he doesn't look back he's too focused on keeping an eye out for demogorgons.
we shuffle down the bloody hallways.
the hallways of the Lab we're trying to escape from.
suddenly, we're stopped in our tracks.
a security guard is pounced on by a demo dog.
Mike flinches and Hopper herds is into a room.
Dr Owens looks at the security cameras, in fear, sadness, and shock.
Mike makes his way over to the cameras, i follow in his steps.
demogorgons fill the hallway, as much as the dead bodies do. just thirty minutes ago, there were hundreds of people keeping watch of the Lab, now they're all dead.
"oh my god" i look away.
"how do we get out of here?" Mike turns to Owens.
"the closest exit is here.." Owens places his finger on the map of the Lab.
"okay. let's go" Hopper grabs his gun, preparing to head toward the exit.
"we're on lockdown, all the security doors are locked. there's no way out"
"well, how do we unlock them?" Joyce asks.
Owens turns back to the map, "three floors down. in the vault you can unlock it"
"alright then" Hopper grabs the doorknob.
"wait!" i pipe up, "to unlock the doors, you have to reset the breakers!"
"okay. how do i do that?"
"you can't! not unless you know Basic!" i throw my hands up. Mikes eyes dart back and forth between Hopper and i's conversation.
"then teach me!"
i roll my eyes. Chief Jim Hopper doesn't know computer basic.
"yeah? lemme try teaching you french while i'm at it. maybe a little german!" i spit.
i look around, "does anyone here know Basic"
Joyce shakes her head, so does Mike and so does Owens. "you don't?! why do you work here??" i sigh at Dr Owens, who shrugs.
i grumble. i guess it's just me then.
"okay. i got this. i got this" i volunteer.
"y/n... no.." Mike steps toward me.
i hold Mikes arms, "i'm gonna be okay"
"but it's too dangerous" Mike chokes on his words.
"i know, kid. it is very dangerous but it's the only way. she's the only one who knows Basic" Hopper places a hand on Mikes shoulder.
"promise me... promise me you'll make it back safe"
"i'll be there to protect her" Hopper answers for me.
"let me come too" Mike confronts the Chief.
"no Mike, not another person at risk" i shake my head in denial.
Hopper loads up the gun, "you ready, kid?"
"yeah..." i say, giving a quick peck on the cheek to Mike.
his eyes water and i walk out the door.
i turn my head, Joyce's hand is on his shoulder as he sobs, "y/n..."

"you're a very brave girl. you know that right, y/n?" Hopper says
"i guess so"
"it takes guts"
right as those words leave Hoppers mouth, we turn a corner, revealing a gorey, dead, bloody body.
my face sickens.
Hopper places a hand on my shoulder and leads me on, "you can do this"

"okay, kid. work your magic" Hopper says as we arrive.
Hopper first turns the lights on, i go to the computer and start to reset the breakers, "and... open sesame"

MIKE POV
"it's open" Owens exclaims.
i turn my attention to the cameras, on one of them, i see a two figures down at the vault.
"y/n.." i grin, "she made it"
Owens grabs the communication device, "y/n, Hopper. can you hear us?"
"loud and clear, Doc" Hopper responds
"we're in the clear, come on up."
"okay"
"y/n!" i call out her name, hoping she could hear me.
"yes?" a soft voice says
"be safe, love, okay?"
"i will Mike"

YOUR POV
Hopper and i walk back on up to the main level, we're almost to the door.
My forehead is drenched in sweat, i actually made it.
*grrrrrr*
my head flips around
"run y/n" Hopper commands.
"you've got company!!! RUN!!" the walkie warns.
my feet bolt, Hopper pushes me infront of him.
i push open some doors, finally revealing Mike and Joyce who are impatiently waiting for us.
"let's go! keep going! they're on our heels!"
"Mi-" i sigh at the sight that Mike is safe.
"love fest can wait until AFTER we get out of the Lab with demogorgons crawling everywhere!!!"
i keep bolting, the door buzzing as all four of us exit the lab.
Mike holds onto me, "thank fuck you're safe, you don't know how worried i was"
"i'm here now. i'm safe"
