003 (Stranger Things Season 3 OC Insert)

Chapter One: Warnings

Mike, Will, Lucas, and Max were all seen walking through the brand new mall towards a certain store. On the way, Lucas seemed to be upset.

"Where are they?"

Max shrugged "Probably there waiting for us, they did say meet us halfway"

"Well, what if that was the entrance?"

Mike shook his head "They're not dumb"

Lucas gave up and kept walking through the mall. they bumped into a group who retaliated at them

"Watch it"

Another voice was heard "Yeah! Watch it, nerd!"

The group turned to see Erica, Lucas's sister. Lucas retaliated just as fast

"Isn't past your bedtime?"

"Isn't time you died?"

"Psycho!"

"Butthead!"

"Mall Rat!"

"Fart Face!"

Lucas blew a raspberry which drew out a comment from Max

"Oh, now that's mature"

She pulled the boy into a shop called Scoops Ahoy where they walked up to the counter, but just before they reached it Will pointed something out

"Hey, I found them!"

The group turned to where he was pointing to two teenagers sitting in a booth near the front, one was facing away and the other faced them. The one facing them looked past their partner to see the group and grew a smile on their face, the face revealed to be Eleven whos hair was now longer. The other person took notice and turned around and grew a smile, they had a black stubble beard and their hair was in a bun, this could only be one person. Bruce.

The boy stood up which made their head look up to him as he walked over to the group with Eleven behind him

"Hey! You guys took your time"

Will spoke before the others "They thought you meant the entrance instead of here"

He shrugged "Well, you're here now. Let's go"

The group turned around and Bruce rang the bell which made the girl at the counter sigh

"Hey, dingus, your children are here"

The window opened from behind her to reveal steve who seemed annoyed

"Again? Seriously?"

Bruce shrugged as Steve rolled his eyes and came out to let them behind the counter and through the shop which led to a door of a hallway, once they were all in the hallway Steve stood there and said one last thing

"I swear if anybody heard about this-"

Everyone but Bruce and Eleven spoke, "We're dead!"

Bruce smiled and Eleven giggled at the group's response. After a minute of walking, they came up to a door which Mike poked his head out of before talking

"All clear"

The group filed out of the door and into a theater where they walked into a showing of 'Day Of The Dead'. The group walked into the room and found some seats where they passed a few people before sitting down just as the preview ended, once settled Will pulled out some snacks from his backpack and passed them around. Bruce reached forward for his which was eight Slim-Jims which he immediately started eating one.

Within a minute the projected turned off which caused everyone to groan in annoyance, while everyone was complaining Bruce felt on edge, he turned his arm over and pulled back the sleeve of his trench coat to see his veins pulsing red frantically. It caught Eleven's attention as it produced a dim light, she grew a face of worry and held his hand which caught his attention
