TWELVE FELT LIKE HE WAS IN A DREAM, a good one. Which is unusual for the young boy, but here he was standing in the AV room between Dustin and Five.

Five. Levi got his best friend back and he was over the moon about it, but what saddened him was that they were stuck in a world where monsters exist and they took Will Byers.

All the boy wanted to do was catch up with Five, but he had to focus. He had to focus on helping El find Will.

So now he stood behind Eleven as she sat down on the chair, a huge radio in front of her and the rest of the boys surrounding the table.

Mike messed with the knobs on the radio, before settling back in his position next to her. Levi glanced at Five who nodded at him reassuringly.

And it calmed him instantly, and Levi felt relief that he had the one person back that calmed him down more than anything...well other than Ben.

Eleven closed her eyes, reaching her hand over her shoulder. Levi grasped the girl's hand, moving to stand on the other side of her as Levi's eyes flashed white and focused on the ringing in his head.

Five watched with his arms crossed and his normal scowl painted across his face, waving off the worry in his stomach as he notices Twelve flinch slightly.

"They're finding him!" Mike exclaimed.

"This is crazy," Dustin said, smiling.

"Calm down. They just closed their eyes." Lucas mumbled, causing five to quietly snort while shaking his head.

Five's head snapped up as the lights went out, leaving them in darkness, while the others gasp.

"Holy..."

They all look back at Eleven and Twelve as they hear clanging come from the radio the sound intensifying every second passing.

"What is that?" Dustin said, glancing at Five who shrugged trying to keep a serious face even though he felt his heart quicken in fear.

He had never been afraid of anything, not even Dr. Brenner, but some things are his weakness and that's losing his friends and the upside-down.

 He had feared it ever since the day they watched their friend die viciously by the Demogorgon.

Five jumped slightly as they heard a whimper coming from the radio.

"Mom...mom..."

By the looks on the boy's faces around him, Five could tell this was their missing friend causing him to grow concerned.

"Will, can you hear us? We're here!"

Shouts coming from the boys were all that was heard as they continued listening to their scared friend.
