  Will felt his palms becoming sweaty, feeling embarrassed as Nick traced his fingers. "Just breath. Just-" Her words began to fade. His surroundings began to blur and see saw something that made him jump out of his skin. A large black line. 

  "What is that!" Mike pointed as the line growing on his arm. It looked like the thing that was growing on Nick's leg, but worse. The bold lines began to cover and trace all over his arms. "It's- it's the demogorgon!" Will said, his voice deepening and changing as he spoke, only freaking him out more. 

  "It's not the demogorgon." A voice said in his head. "It's you." 

  That was when Will got up, the lines growing darker around his body. 

  His eyes becoming A dark brown, black. 

  "Are you okay?" Nick said as she got up with him. he glared at her, making her shiver in the pain of what she saw in Will's eyes. "Mike." She looked up at him terrified. 

  "Am I okay?" Will asked teasingly. "I wonder," he tapped his chin mockingly and laughed slightly. He picked up the serum bottle in a careful manner and began to slowly walk in Nick's direction. 

  "Will. You don't have to do this! Will, please! Don't let her take you too!" Nick cried as she put her arms in front of her, blocking herself from someone she knew was a LOT stronger than she was. (physically) "Oh, but I have too. You know I don't have to, but I want to. You see Nick, I never thought that Samantha's ways were smart or even safe, but now, I have power. I am stronger than ever. And now," he said in a pause. 

  He threw the serum against the metal walls, destroying the bottle and the serum designate into the walls. "NO!" Mike shouted as he ran up with a bat, not wanting to hurt his friend but wanting to help Nick if he could. 

  Will's insane strength threw Mike across the room before Mike could even get close to him, him hitting his head hard on the walls on the other side of the hall, knocking him out for a split second. "Will, look at me!" Nick screamed as she grabbed his hands. 

  "Will, I know you! Baby, you're my everything! I would be nothing without you! You know that this is wrong, you know that she is doing this to you. Please don't let her take you from me. I can't lose you too! After everything, everyone. Every night in the Upside Down when we would just talk. Talk about the bullies, the stupid stuff like how we agreed to find each other again if we were separated. Please. I love you." Nick said. 

  Will didn't do anything but laugh darkly, grabbing Nick's forearms harshly and pushing her against the wall. "You stupid little girl. You thought someone could love a screw up like you?" He smirked. "You were wrong. You belong down there, you always have and you always will." 

  "This isn't you, Will." She muttered, tears streaming down her face. "And I know you would never, ever hurt me." She said as she began to light herself on fire (with her powers) "I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry." Will's eyes began to turn, back to their loving, enchanting hazel. The lines on his body began to fade, and he soon fell back down on his knees in front of Nick. 

  All Mike saw was Nick on fire, and Will falling on the ground. He got up as fast as he could, placing his hands on Will's shoulders. Nick cupped his face, tear stains all over her cheeks. "I'm sorry. I love you. Please come back to me, please." Nick whispered. 

  Will got his sight and feeling back, hearing Nick's sorrowful voice ringing in his ears. "Nick?" He asked softly, making Nick laugh in joy as she hugged him tightly. "Are you okay? What happened Nick?" he asked as he grabbed her wrists, right where she was hurt before. She hissed in pain, pulling away from his, only for him the stare at her in shock and pain. 

  "What happened?" He asked as he pulled up her sleeves to see dark hand grip marks on her arms. "Did I do that?" Nick nodded a little bit, and then she cupped his face again and placed her forehead against his. "Its okay, Will. It wasn't you." 

  "But it was. It was me. I hurt you. And I promised I never would! I promised to protect you, to-"  he was cut off by Nick's lips pressed on his. They kissed passionately for longer than any moment felt. Forever; and Will wished he could stay like that forever. But she broke away from his lips and glanced up at him sweetly. "I love you." 

  "I love you too," he smiled. "And I promise that-" 

  "I hate to ruin this moment, but we have a problem. No serum, and we are stuck in a Russian Death Maze. And look." Mike pointed from behind them, to see the walls beginning to close from behind them.  


A/N Is it just me or would Noah Schnapp do such an amazing job as an villain? Or at least this part? I don't know that could just be me.
