Dustin moved over to Steve, putting a hand over his forehead, while Steve tried to fight him off a little. "He's burning up." As he said so, Robin sat down on the same platform on wheels as Steve was previously on.

"You're burning up." Steve fired back at him. When Dustin tried to get a better look at Steve's eyes, the other boy tried to push him away. "OWWW."

"His pupils are super dilated." The younger boy looked back at Erica while me and Robin watched over their chaos. Part of me then came to the idea of pulling the platform from underneath Robin away, too.

"Maybe he's drugged..." Erica tells Dustin.

"BOOP!" Just when Dustin looked back at Steve, the boy pressed his finger against the younger boy's nose momentarily, making me smile.

"Steve?" Dustin slapped the side of his face lightly to catch his attention. "Are you drugged?"

"How many times, Dad?" Steve says mockingly. "I don't do drugs... It's only marijuana..." Rule number thirty: smoke marijuana!

"This isn't funny, okay?" Dustin tells us. " I need to know what they did to you. Are you gonna die on us?"

"I hope not..." I murmured, seeing Steve BOOP Dustin again in the face. "I mean, that'll be horrible time to miss out on cinema..."

"We all die, my strange little child friend." Robin suddenly spoke up, with Dustin looking over at her, wondering what help she could possibly give them. "It's just a matter of how... and when..."

Letting her words sink in for a moment, Dustin looked back at Steve. "They're gonna be looking for us up there, so I need you to tell me where you parked your car."

"Ohhhhh, can we make a pit stop at the food court?" Steve asks Dustin. I could KILL for food.

"I would KILL for a burger right now." I say, eyes wide, earning nods from the other two.

"ALRIGHT- FOOD, yes! Yes, you can have as much food as you want." Dustin tells us, causing Robin to raise her hands in victory. Food. Yes. "BUT, only if you tell me where your car is parked."

"Uh-oh..." Steve says, looking back up at Dustin.

"Uh-oh?" Dustin repeated, not understanding.

"The car's off the board." He says simply, but the boy wasn't understanding still.

"What?!"

"They took the keys!" The boy emptied out his pockets to show the problems currently at hand. Dustin would have to come up with another plan, then. "The Russians! They took the keys, like, forever ago!" Robin began to laugh, while I giggled along, too. "That's a bummer, right?"

When the elevator doors opened back up, it was like nothing else. It was heaven to have a breath of fresh air again.

"Oh, my God, that tastes so good." Robin ran ahead of me and Steve, mouth open to breathing in the air. "Steve, Park, can you taste the air?!" As we both looked up, we too could certainly taste the air. It was like walking on clouds to be out of the Russian base. To be outside was like finally being out of prison after a life sentence. Nothing could change that.

Looking back at it now, part of me wondered how Dustin was going to explain all of this to our friends and family. Especially Joyce, or Will, or Mike, or Nancy- or Max. I can already imagine the face Max would be pulling at Dustin as he explained how the three of us got high on some evil Russian's special drug to make us tell the truth. She'll probably end up shouting at him, that was for sure.

"SHIT." My eyes went wide at Dustin's sudden shout, turning back to the three of us. "COME ON, COME ON!" The boy pulled after Steve while Erica had her hands full with both me and Robin, dragging us back into the room. My stomach was starting to hurt again as I found myself nearly tripping over my own feet, rushing along with the smaller and taller girls.

"OKAY, OKAY! WOOOOO." Robin was most certainly in her own world as she was pushed into the room, sending me into fits of laughter when she showed it.

"OKAY, WHY ARE WE RUNNING?!"

⊹˚˖⁺

Rushing down the corridors, I found myself crashing into every wall as we ran so fast. "WHOA-" The taller boy let out a yell as Robin held onto me by my jacket's sleeve end. The other two non-drugged of our group were certainly not enjoying our current state of mind, but well, there wasn't that much to be done.

"Where are we going?" Erica looked over the other boy, dragging along Steve who'd just walked into a wall.

"JUST TRUST ME." Beside me, Robin continued to laugh along with Steve, finding all of this hilarious. It was pretty much hilarious, I won't lie.

Stopping at a door on the side, I almost fell over Erica due to Robin nearly falling into me, causing us to laugh and giggle like three-year-old. Dustin, meanwhile, then looked back at us from he half-open door. "All clear."

The four of us followed right after Dustin, smiling like idiots as we found our ways into a movie theatre. "WHAT DID I TELL YOU?!" When the small boy opened the doors, I saw the film we were  watching.

Now, not to say I'm a whizz at movies, but me and Max had gone to see it on the day of its release in Hawkins, without any of the boys. In a better mindset, I could've told them all the plot right there and then. But then again, the drug was still having an effect. "EIGHTY-EIGHT MILES PER HOUR!"

Dustin guided us down to the front of the cinema, not really paying attention to the movie as much as I wanted to. "THE TEMPORAL DISPLACEMENT OCCURRED EXACTLY 1:20 AM-"

When we stopped at the front of the cinema, front row seats, Dustin pointed right at three seats at the end of the row. "You three, sit."

"No, no, no!" Robin whined. "These seats are too close!" She had a point. We were way too close to watch Marty McFly and Doc go back in time.

"Dude- these seats blow." Steve tells the boy.

"Then don't watch the movie." Dustin told him back, annoyed that we were so worried.

"We want to watch the movie." I tell him, eyebrow raised.

"Then watch IT." When Dustin raised his voice over at us, I pulled a face over at him, teasing as he was told by a man behind us to be quiet. "Sorry..." He then looked back over at us. "Whatever you do, don't. go. Anywhere."

"Fine...." I smiled over at Steve and his bag of popcorn which seemed to have just... appeared. "Dad." Robin and I snickered as I took a handful of popcorn for myself, offering some over to her.

The boy gave us all one final glare before he and Erica sneaked across the front, leaving us be. "Did you know- in this, the kid's mom falls in love with him?" I asked, whispering over to the girl beside me as she snacked on the flood I'd given her. She gave me an expression that was so unreadable, then broke out into a fit of laughter.

"What's happening?" As Steve glanced up at the screen, so did the two of us, with Robin asking the question that he, too, probably was wondering.

"I have no idea." Rule number thirty-one: WATCH THE MOVIE
