It's summer of 1985 and Cherry Hopper was happy that everything has gone to back normal or has it?
What happens if everything wasn't as normal as she thought it was going to be?
What if she gets caught up in Russian business?
And what happens when...
After a few hours it was dark, Cherry, Jim, and Joyce left Larry's house.
The whole ride was silent, with Jim smoking, Joyce looking out the window, and Cherry staring off into space.
The trio soon got a house, Jim looks at the house "Looks like somebodys home." He stated.
Cherry looks around and sees that the outside lights were in fact on, and there was a trailer with 'Lynx' on the side.
Cherry looks at it feeling uneasy about this whole thing.
Jim parks the car in front, they get out and head over to the door, Jim opens it as quietly as possible, but the hinges sounded weak and the squeaked.
Jim held his flashlight under his gun and going in first before Joyce and Cherry to make sure it's safe.
Once he made sure it's ok Cherry and Joyce followed him inside the house, it looked pretty...deserted.
It was dusty,and in the living room and there was a chair with and cigarette tray.
"Did you hear that?" Joyce asked quietly. Cherry and Jim stop moving and listen, they all hear a sort of rumbling.
They slowly move toward the door that the sound was coming from.
Cherry looks up at the light bulb that was going in and out.
They go through and go down the hallway following the noise.
The floor boards creak with every step they take.
At the end there's a door and they enter another room in the house.
"Where's that coming from?" Cherry asks aloud. Cherry turns to Joyce and sees that she is going down and listening to the ground.
"It's below us." Joyce and Cherry say together. Jim looks at them curiously, Joyce then saw a red light coming from the vent she was in front of.
Jim goes over to the side of what looked like a bed and lifted it up with the help of Joyce, they hear the noise a lot more clearer.
Jim takes out his gun and points at the entrance, the trio look at each other then back to the opening.

Once they're down there Cherry hears distant clanking, they move through the big room hearing people talk, Cherry understood that the language they were using was Russian.
They move out of the corner to see to guys working on some type of machine.
"Hey, dipshits!" Jim yelled to them, the to said guys looked up, Cherry saw that one was older than the other he was wearing a mechanics outfit.
And the other one looked about her age maybe a year or two older. He had brown curly hair and glasses on, and was wearing a white shirt. To Cherry he looked fairly attractive, but she shook of those thoughts and got back to business.
"Hawkins PD. Hands in the air." Jim said with authority.
The younger man took a step forward slowly.
"Dont make me say it again!" Jim said a little rougher now.
The oldest looked to the other guy speaking in Russian.
Joyce and Hopper looked at each other confused. "English." Jim said.
"You speak English?" Jim asks. The guy in the glasses was trying to ease the situation.
"I can't understand you." Jim told him. Glasses was trying to make him understand that he didn't understand him either.
It went on for a little before Cherry and Joyce heard the floorboards creak, which only meant that someone else was in the house.
"Hopper" Joyce said pointing up.
"Tie him, I got this one." Jim told Cherry and Joyce. Cherry went over to the guy with the glasses and took him to tie him up while Jim took care of the other guy.
The guy that was with them looked at Cherry confused.
"What's going on? Who are you?" He asked. Cherry looks at him. "Just sit down and shut up." She told him in his language.
He looks at her confused but that doesn't last long when Cherry looks over the corner hearing her brother say. "Don't move. Drop the gun. Drop it!" He yelled the last part.
"You understand what I'm saying, big guy?" He asked. "Drop the weapon." He said getting mad.
"Or what." The guy said with a strong accent. "You going to shoot?" The big guy said.
"Good," Jim said. "so you do understand what I'm saying, huh?" Jim asked.
The guy with the glasses was hanging from the pipes, his hands cuffed. Cherry and Joyce stand there listening
"And, yeah, you don't put that gun away, I'm gonna blow some daylight into that thick skull of yours." Jim threatened.
"No, " The guy simply said. "you wont do that." The guy said smugly.
"Why's that?" Jim asked annoyed. "Because your a policeman," The guy started. "policeman have rules." He told Jim.
"Oh, yeah," Jim said. "What to test that theory?" He said clicking his gun.
"I'm gonna count to three, one, two, three." Then they hear a gun go off.
