I pulled my long sleeves down over my wrists and fingers double checking that my scars one of my most well kept secrets were hidden from the others as I waited anxiously to hear the monster will would be battling, mike slammed down the demogorgan figurine and we all groaned, "roast it, throw fireballs will" I yelled excitedly.

he threw the dice down yelling "fireball!" and suddenly the dice flew off the table, and dustin and Lucas , will and I dived after them, will had rolled a seven, his fireball had missed and he had died. we all groaned, it was time for dustin and Lucas to go as it was a school night.

I hugged both of them and searched in my mind for our links, I had an ability since I was very young, I could create links with people I touched, I could then find them no matter where they were and I could send them emotions like happiness or calmness, even if they were on the other side of Hawkins. I strengthened the links I had with Lucas dustin and will before they left and walked them out the front to our bikes. 

suddenly I got a strange feeling of unease and I hugged will before he left "stay safe will, I don't have a very good feeling about tonight, be careful on your way home" I whispered to him as I let him go and he biked off.

mike sighed as they left and the light out the front flickered creepily, "do your parents know you're staying the night?" mike asked me. I sighed and turned to him "I don't think they even know they have a child" I whispered sadly as he led me inside. we had dinner and went back downstairs to the basement to clean up a bit after dungeons and dragons and make our beds.

we went to sleep easily that night with the basement doors shut so mikes parents couldn't hear us talking to each other for another hour after bedtime. it was around 12 am  only a few hours after he left, when wills link in my mind began sending panicked signals to me and I sat up straight. I started sending him calming signals as I tried to figure out what was wrong, all I could make out was that something was after him.

as quick as it came his panic was suddenly overwhelmed with a huge tearing sensation that had me curl into a ball screaming as loud as I could at the pain, it felt like my mind was being ripped in half and I didn't know what to do. mike was shaking me trying to find out what was wrong, and slowly I built a wall around wills link to dull the pain and stopped screaming, I just rocked back and forth tiredly as mike hugged me mumbling wills name over and over.

mike said it was a nightmare the next day and I didn't tell him otherwise, we were eating breakfast ready for school when mikes mum said "will?, didn't he come home last night?" to whoever was on the phone, I just looked worriedly at mike.

after breakfast we jumped onto our bikes and rode to school our schoolbags on our backs, hopefully will was there.

we arrived at school with the others, dustin and Lucas, "will isn't here mike!" I whispered to him worriedly.

suddenly troy the school bullies and his friend came over "Wonder who would make more money, midnight, frog face, toothless or emo nosebleeder." I frowned bringing my hand up to my nose feeling wetness and seeing red blood. The bullies laughed and pointed at me. Dustin sent them away with the elbow thing he does and Lucas started complaining over its creepiness I just thanked dustin and tried to smile at the others my eyes tired.

Biology was first with mr Clarke he was also the av club president. All of us loved radios and he had one coming for us, we had been waiting for it forever so as soon as the bell rang we were at his desk asking if it had arrived yet, he just grinned and told us it had.

As we got the new radio I grinned with the others but the nagging absence of will caused me to pull my sleeves further down and rub my scarred wrists in anxiety. I smiled half heartedly at the others as they spoke in a awful Australian accent.

As the police called us in I almost stopped breathing. I sat in the middle of dustin and Lucas on the couch as the police asked us questions. My mind was screaming out to will and suddenly I felt the faintest sense of him. Looking around I couldn't see him or hear him.

Will and I had been best friends since preschool, more so than the others, I was always at his house or he was always with me. He knew everything about me, or almost everything I thought rubbing my scarred wrist.

We would play hide and seek as kids and with our link I found him in the first ten minutes every time, always, Jonathan his older brother was like a brother to me he always listened, we always dance to the same song should I stay or should I go, all three of us.

I wiped at my nose as it bled and ignored it. Dustin and Luke began arguing over mirkwood and lord of the rings or the hobbit. I sighed as they began hitting each other over the top of me and gently grabbed their hands that they were hitting each other with and squeezed them reassuringly absentmindedly calming them down whilst biting my lip.

I didn't notice the look the others gave each other or the strange epiphany face mike pulled.I knew after school the others and I were going to go searching for will, despite what hopper said

I went home that night almost pulling out my hair in frustration, mum had come home and when I told her about will she just smiled and said thats nice darling, I almost cried. Why cant she just listen to me. Dad I tried to talk to him but he just pushed me out the way to get to the fridge I stumbled and all of a sudden I felt guilty.

Walking to my room I grabbed my razor shakily placing it on the bench I began pacing the length of my room. I let will go I didn't try to stop him. Its my fault, tears began dripping down my face as I paced and I reached out to our almost severed connection still crying as I felt the ripped edges causing me to clutch my head in pain as my headache only worsened.

Reaching over for my razor I sliced it across my scarred wrist, I froze, the connection to will now seemed less painful, I again dug the razor edge into my skin and slowly watched as the blood beaded out heavily, again will felt less painful and soon I was bleeding heavily from my arm but I was then also almost numb to the pain of wills disappearance.

I was starting to feel light headed and dizzy so I bandaged my soaked arm and wiped the blood off my Hard wood floor. Pulling my sleeve back down I paced a little more before grabbing my waterproof jacket and a high powered torch. I walked straight through the living room past my parents who were watching tv and sighed as neither even asked where I was going.around 8, I left thought the front door and rode my bike to Mirkwood I had to look for will.

miraculously the others, mike, Lukas and dustin had done the same. We met up and walked in with our torches.

I began shivering as it rained but didn't bother complaining like everyone else instead I kept shouting wills name with increasing desperation.

Out of nowhere a girl showed up with a shaven head the pounding in my head got louder and I got dizzy. But I could tell she was cold so I shrugged off my warm raincoat and tossed it to her as the others led her to mikes.

I was still shivering from the cold but I still had my long sleeves so I was fine, I continued calling out wills name as we left. The others were busy questioning the girl but I wanted, no needed to find will, the small connection just barely there was ripping more and more as time went on and soon I wouldn't sense him at all. I stumbled onto my bike still screaming WILL! At the top of my lungs.
