In the small town of Hawkins Indiana there really wasn't much to do, it's the type of town that people go to to find someone, settle down, get a "cubicle job", have a bunch of kids, retire, and die.
What do I want to do after High school? Well that's actually a really good question.
I mean it would be nice to venture out of this town for a little experience new things, but after that I'm most likely going to end up back here. Keep an eye on my dad and make sure he doesn't get lonely, rent a house or something, and if fate is willing meet someone special, get married, and eventually blend in and become just another one of Hawkins "perfect little families".
I mean it's not really like I have a choice or anything, right? Nobody really leaves Hawkins no matter how hard they fight it they always end up back here, so what's the point of fighting it in the first place?

"The way he looks at her. Like she's the most important thing in the world to him." "I think she is."
Experiment X - that's was she was known as. A dangerous weapon that belonged to a lab in the Soviet Union. An assassin. A spy.
A seventeen year old girl who wanted nothing more than to live a normal life. She thinks she finally gets that opportunity when she manages to flee the lab and escape to America - Hawkins, Indiana to be exact. A town with a secret too close to home.
And she managed to live under everyone's noses until one night. A night with demodogs and fighting and flames and... Steve Harrington. The only person that could get past the barriers she held up around herself.
She needed Steve more than anyone. And he needed her.
