Chapter 4: Talk With Eleven

Emily's pov:

"That demogorgon attacked me! Did you have something to do with it?" :i spoke rage starting fill my words. That demogorgon could've killed me and my brother both hadn't i used my powers back there, me and brother would've been dead! A-And the way Max and father looked at me? i don't know if i want to go back there but, at the same time i do cause...what if the bad men try to take them to lure me in? i'll have to figure something. "i didn't." :is the only response Eleven gave me. I growl in frustration. "Liar!" :i shout and lights in the basement flicker slightly. my powers causing the lights to flicker. "What happened to the demogorgon, fifteen?" :Lucas asked me. seriously, i'm arguing with the girl who i KNOW opened the gate somehow and he decides to ask a goddamn question right in the middle of it?! "i incinerated that monster..." :i spoke venom dripping from my words as i gave a bit of a devilish smile. "Eleven, the gate...i know you opened it..." :i spoke again rage consuming my words entirely at this point. her eyes widened, i knew it! i freaking knew she opened that damned gate...hawkins is in trouble. Why would she do it? Did she not know it was dangerous? Did she know people could get killed? Did she know one of them tried to kill me and brother? did she know? did she know all this time? i had been lost in my thoughts that i didn't even hear Lucas shouting my name. "Fifteen! Fifteen, stop...your making objects in this room float!" :Lucas shouted at me. i open my eyes, my eyes feel glossy, my breath a bit laboured. i noticed the objects in the room floating, i gasp softly and stop...i fall to my hands and knees and start sobbing...

She knew she opened the gate...she put hawkins in danger. i felt a hand on my shoulder and i looked up and saw Lucas, giving me concerned look. i continued to sob...he, hugged me...i tensed up for moment then i, hesitently hugged back...tightly. i cried and cried, then finally i stopped and pulled away from the hug. i sigh. "Thanks Lucas, i needed that..." :i spoke, my voice was raspy and broken from the crying. he just nodded and gave me a sad smile. i look at Eleven, she looked guilty and sad. "Eleven, th-that demogorgon tried to attack me...and my brother. but, i killed it..." :i spoke as i went over to a chair and sat down. the others glanced at me curiously, at the mentioning that i have a brother. i hadn't told them yet that i have a brother, so they assumed i was an only child...idiots. "Who's your brother...? is he like you...and Eleven?" :Lucas asked me curiously. i sigh. "no he isn't. My brother is...Billy Hargrove. Father did not want a daughter so, when i was born...he was mad and, gave me to the hawkins lab institute..." :i reply with a serious looking face. they all looked surprised. "You mean your related to that asshole Billy?" :Dustin spoke, he looked a bit disgusted. "Don't, you dare talk about my brother like that...unless you want a broken arm Henderson..." :i spoke, pure venom dripping off my words but at the same time...i was unnaturally calm...like what i just said was no big deal. "i'm surprised you didn't ask me, where i got these clothes from..." :i spoke sounding bored. "are those...Max's clothes?" :Lucas asked. i nodded. "She borrowed them to me." :i spoke. "Mike, this sounds bad..." :Dustin told Mike with a nervous tone to his voice. "i know, fifteen...does Billy know your here?" :Mike asked with a serious tone to his voice. i shook my head no. "My name is actually Emily, and no...he doesn't know i'm here...i, kinda ran off after killing the demogorgon...i needed answers so, i went looking for her." :i responded glancing over at Eleven. they all looked relieved. "we should call him...this doesn't sound safe man...he's probably looking for her..." :Dustin said. "No! i feel like i'll, put him...in danger if i go back now. Can i stay here for a while? Max can't know either, she'll just tell brother immediately. i feel like staying away from them...will keep them safe for the time being." :i spoke quickly. they all looked at each other for a moment, then El spoke up. "We should let her stay. She is only asking, so she can keep her family safe." :Eleven said and gave me a slight smile. i smile slightly as if thanking her. "Alright, she can stay. if Eleven's vouching for her, so am i." :Mike spoke, agreeing with El. the other sighed a bit in annoyance but then nodded in agreement. a few hours later, the others left and Mike made a space for me in his sister's room and i thanked him for it. i hope i can keep my family safe.

Eleven's pov:

this girl, she is like me but...different. i hope we can help her. she made sure to apologize for arguing with me, she was just upset and scared...so i understood. i understood the feeling to protect others from something that is dangerous. though i think she might be worried that her brother might try to come and look for her but, i don't think he will. Billy doesn't even know where Mike lives so, that should be easy. that just means she can't leave the house. she'll be bored but, she'll have me to keep her company at least...we can practice our powers so we use them better to protect those we care for. And i think eventually the others will warm up to her. but, eventually we'll need to find a way to close the gate. i was fool, i can't believe 'papa' would trick me into opening something, that he KNEW was dangerous. oh well, hopefully we'll find a way to figure out how we're gonna close the gate but for now? sleep is all i need...we will find a way.
