NO ONE'S POV:

(Cut to Nancy & Jonathan putting their plan into motion inside of Jonathan's house.)

Jonathan: Remember...

Nancy: Straight into Will's room. And--

Jonathan: Don't step on the trap.

Nancy: Wait for the yo-yo to move.

Jonathan: Then...

(He flicks a lighter.)

Jonathan: All right. You ready?

Nancy: Ready.

Jonathan: On three. One...two...You don;t have to do this--

Nancy: Jonathan, stop talking.

Jonathan: I'm just saying, you don't have to--

Nancy: Three.

(They're wrapping the cuts on each of their hands as they hear a creak.)

Nancy: Did you hear that?

Jonathan: It's just the wind. Don't worry. My mom, she said the light speak when it comes.

Nancy: Speak?

Jonathan: Blink. Think of them as alarms.

Nancy: Is that too tight?

Jonathan: [stutters] No, it's fine. Thanks.

(Their fingers touch lightly.)

Jonathan: Nancy?

Nancy: Yeah?

*BANGING*

(Loud banfing is heard from the door causing them both to gasp.)

Steve: Jonathan? Are you there, man? It's...it's Steve and (Y/N)!

(Y/N): Maybe he isn't home?

Steve: Listen, we just want to talk!

(He continues to bang on the door until Nancy answers it.)

Nancy: Steve, (Y/N), listen to me.

Steve: Hey. Nancy, what--

Nancy: Both of you need to leave.

(Y/N): Just hear him out.

Steve: I'm not trying to start anything, okay?

Nancy: I don't care about that. You two need to leave.

Steve: [stammering] No, no, no. Listen, I messed up, okay? I messed...I messed up. Okay? Really. Please. I just want to make things right. Okay? Please. Please...[stammers] Hey, what happened to your hand? Is that blood?

(Y/N): [sniffs] Smells like it.

Nancy: Nothing. [stutters] It was an accident.

Steve: Yeah, what's going on?

Nancy: Nothing.

Steve: Wait a sec. Did he do this to you?

Nancy: No.

Steve: Nancy, let us in!

Nancy: No. No! No, Steve! (Y/N)!

(They barge their way in to see Jonathan & a nailed baseball bat.)

(Y/N): We're missing something here...

Steve: What is...What the...

Jonathan: Both of you need to get out of here.

Steve: Whoa. What is all--

Jonathan: Listen to me. I'm not asking, I'm telling, get out of here!

(Y/N): How about you back off?

Steve: What is that smell? Is that...is that gasoline?

(Nancy aims her pistol at them.)

Nancy: Steve, (Y/N), get out!

(Y/N): Whoa!

Steve: [stutters] Wait. What? What is going on?

Nancy: You have five seconds to get out of here.

(Y/N): Nancy, if you're going to point that gun at anyone, point it at me.

(She points the pistol at Y/N.)

Steve: (Y/N), shut up. Okay, is this a joke? Stop. Put the gun down.

(The lights around them start to blink.)

Nancy: I'm doing this for both of you.

Jonathan: Nancy.

Steve: Wait. Is this a...What is this?

Jonathan: Nancy.

Nancy: Three. Two.

(Y/N): Just put the gun down--

Steve: No, no, no! No, no.

Jonathan: Nancy! The lights.

(She notices the blinking lights.)

Jonathan: It's here.

Steve: Wait, what's here?

(Y/N): You don't mean...?

(Jonathan picks up the nailed baseball bat.)

Nancy: Where is it?

Steve: Where is what? Whoa. Easy with that!

Jonathan: I don't know. I don't see it.

Steve: Where is what?

(Y/N): No way...

Steve: Hello? Will someone explain to us what the hell is going--

(Imagine Y/N next to Steve.)

Jonathan: No!

(Y/N looks at Nancy & Jonathan's wrapped hands.)

(Y/N): You drawed it here with blood! Why didn't I think of that?

Nancy: What?

Jonathan: Go! Go! Run! Go! Get out of here!

(Steve follows Jonathan & Nancy, leaving Y/N with the monster.)

(Y/N): Okay, (Y/N). No running this time!

(He begins to change into a werewolf, as he's doing this however, the monster slashes Y/N & sends him crashing into a wall.)

*THUD*

(Y/N): ...

(Cut to the trio running in a hallway.)

Jonathan: Jump!

(Steve jumps over the beartrap.)

Steve: Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

(They enter Will's room.)

Steve: Jesus! Jesus! What the hell was that? What the hell was that? Wait, where's (Y/N)?

Jonathan & Nancy: Shut up!

(The monster screeches.)

Nancy: What's it doing?

Jonathan: I don't know.

(The lights return to normal as they watch the yo-yo.)

Nancy: Do you hear anything?

Jonathan: No.

(The trio walk out of the room & back into the living room.)

Steve: [muttering] This is crazy. This is crazy. This is crazy. This is crazy! This is crazy! This is crazy!

(He looks over to see Y/N's body.)

Steve: Oh, my God! (Y/N)! No...

(He picks up the phone only for Nancy to snatch it away from him.)

Steve: What are you do--What are you doing? Are you insane? (Y/N)'s dead!

Nancy: It's going to come back! And unless you want to end up just like him, you need to leave. Right now.

(Cut back to Nancy & Jonathan, back to back, waiting for the monster to appear.)

Nancy: Where is it?

Jonathan: Come on. Come on, you son of a bitch. You see it?

Nancy: No. Where--

Jonathan: Come on. Where are you? Come on!

(The lights go out & the monster stands over Jonathan.)

Nancy: Go to hell, you son of a bitch!

(She shoots at the monster but its unfazed by the bullets. Nancy runs out of bullets. Before it can attack her, Steve fights the monster with the nailed baseball bat.)

Nancy: Steve!

(He's able to back the monster into the bear trap.)

Steve: He's in the trap! He's stuck!

Nancy: Jonathan, now!

(He runs in front of them & starts fiddling with the lighter.)

Nancy: Jonathan, hurry!

Steve: I don't know how much longer it's gonna stay stuck, man.

Jonathan: I'm trying! It won't work!

(Unbeknownst to them, a werewolf is standing right behind them.)

Werewolf: [growls]

(Y/N charges through the trio, pushing them to the ground.)

Jonathan & Steve: [grunts]

Nancy: [groans]

(Y/N bites down on the back of the monster's neck.)

Monster: [squeals]

Werewolf: [muffled growling]

(The trio watch the fight in front of them.)

Steve: Is that...is that a werewolf?!

(Jonathan's finally able to get the a light from the lighter & he's about to drip it on the floor.)

Nancy: Don't!

Jonathan: What?

Steve: Why are you telling him not to?

(The monster flails its arms frantically, trying to escape Y/N's grasp to no avail. Y/N gets his hand behind the monster & is about to pierce through its heart with his claws but as he's in the motion of doing that, the monster disappears.)

Werewolf: *bites down* Hm?

(He looks over at the trio who are slowly walking towards him.)

Nancy: Where did it go?

Jonathan: No. It has to be dead. [panting] It has to be.

Steve: Uh...guys?

(They all look at the werewolf in front of them.)

Werewolf: [sighs]

(Y/N changes back into a person.)

(Y/N): [groans]

Jonathan, Nancy, & Steve: (Y/N)?!

(He stands up, picks a piece of flesh from the monster away from his mouth with a claw, sniffs it, & puts it in his mouth.)

(Y/N): [swallows] So, uh, thanks for the assist.

(He looks at a door beside him.)

(Y/N): Is this your room, Jonathan?

Jonathan: It is. Why?

(Y/N): You look about my size. Huh? Oh, you see, I'm naked. Can't believe you three haven't noticed yet.

(They begin to look down.)

(Y/N): Hey! Keep those eyes up. Especially you Nancy. I'm gonna put some clothes on. You don't mind, right, Jonathan?

Jonathan: Um, not at all.

(Y/N): Good. I'll be out in a second.

(He enters Jonathan's room to put on some clothes while the trio follow some slowly blinking lights.)

Jonathan: Mom. Is that you? Mom.

(They step outside.)

Nancy: Where's it going?

Jonathan: I don't think that's the monster.

(Cut to them in front of Jonathan's room.)

Steve: You got some clothes on yet, bud?

(Y/N): Almost! Still...still looking for a shirt.

Steve: So you've got pants on then?

(Y/N): Yes...? Wait, wait. Don't open--

(Steve opens the door & the trio sees Y/N, with a shirt on, standing in front of an opened window.)

(Y/N): The door. Ugh...

Jonathan: Looks like I am your size.

Steve: You were planning to sneak out, weren't you?

(Y/N): No!

Nancy: Bullshit.

(Y/N): Okay, okay, I was going to sneak out the window.

Steve: Why?

(Y/N): You three have clearly been through enough today and finding out that I'm werewolf is just more on your plate.

Steve: Well, it's not. We've all got questions for you so you're going to answer every single one of them.

(Y/N): I don't know, Steve. I'm sure Jonathan and Nancy have better things--

Nancy & Jonathan: Nope.

(Y/N): Just like that--Fine.

(Cut to the trio sitting on the couch across from Y/N who's sitting in a chair.)

(Y/N): [clears throat] Ask away.

Steve: How are you a werewolf? Like, when were you bitten?

(Y/N): Well, for starters, I was never bitten.

Jonathan: Then how...?

(Y/N): I'm not originally from Hawkins. Steve, you know this.

Steve: Yeah, yeah. You told me when we first met. Remind me where you're from.

(Y/N): I moved to Hawkins from Ossory, Ireland. You may know it as Osraige? Call whatever you fancy. I come from a long and royal lineage of werewolves. We're the descendants of Laignech Fáelad. My last name, O'Connell, means "strong as a wolf."

Steve: Who?

(Y/N): Some legendary werewolf before my time. Obviously.

Nancy: You said "royal lineage," right?

(Y/N): I did.

Nancy: Meaning you're royalty?

(Steve & Jonathan look at Y/N, waiting for an answer.)

(Y/N): I may be a...prince. But that's not important.

Steve: Being a werewolf prince isn't important?

(Y/N): You know what I mean.

Nancy: Is your entire family also werewolves?

(Y/N): They are. I have an older sister and brother. I hope you don't meet either of them.

Jonathan: Why'd you move here and not stay in Ireland?

(Y/N): I wasn't really cut out to be a prince I guess. So my parents sent me here in the hopes I change my mind. They still send me money and the occasional letter here and there. I'd...I'd be lying if I didn't say that I miss them.

Jonathan: Have you ever eaten anyone before?

Nancy: Jonathan!

Steve: Dude.

Jonathan: Someone had to ask.

(Y/N): He's right. I'm sure it was in the back of your minds. I have never eaten anyone. That's because I'm still in control when I turn into...my other half. The thought has crossed my mind though. Tommy and Carol because, let's face it, they're awful people.

Steve: I'm not going to disagree with you there.

(Y/N): And...Jonathan.

Jonathan: What? Why?

(Y/N): For what you did to Steve. He's my best friend. Come on, you can't blame me.

Steve: You were gonna eat him for me?

(Y/N): Yeah, man.

Jonathan: Do you still want to?

(Y/N): No, not anymore. Steve told me everything. We're cool.

Steve: You weren't bitten?

(Y/N): Correct. I was born a werewolf.

Steve: Are any of the myths about werewolves real?

(Y/N): Some are and some aren't. I'll tell you about the three most well known ones. First, the whole full moon to turn a werewolf is kinda true. You only need a full moon to turn into a werewolf when you're really young around 5 to 10. Because you can't yet control the change. Second, being bitten by a werewolf does turn you into one but only when you're in werewolf form. So, if I were to bite one of you now as is, you wouldn't become one. And third, a silver bullet is the only way to kill a werewolf. I've also heard a gold sword also does the trick but I can't confirm that. You guys don't want to kill me, right? [awkward chuckle]

Steve: No, man.

Jonathan: No.

Nancy: Of course not.

(Y/N): Good, good.

Nancy: What's your territory?

(Y/N): The entire town. Good question, I thought I'd have to out right tell you that.

Nancy: You were with Jonathan and me. When we first went after that thing.

Jonathan: You were!

(Y/N): I was. It was after Will's funeral. I was just walking around my territory and I just happened to see you two shooting cans. I followed because I wanted to see what you guys were hunting...and I was looking out for you, Nancy, for Steve's sake.

Steve: That explains your back. (Y/N). You...you really are the best guy I know.

(Y/N): [scoffs] Please. It was nothing.

Nancy: You followed me into that place and fought that thing. You saved me.

(Y/N): Again, it was nothing.

Nancy: It's not nothing.

(She walks up to him.)

Nancy: Stand up.

(Y/N): What?

Nancy: Stand up.

(He stands up in front of her.)

Nancy: Thank you.

(She hugs him.)

(Y/N): You're welcome.

(He hugs her back. Steve & Jonathan walk towards them as they let go of each other.)

(Y/N): Good plan.

Jonathan: Thanks.

(Steve places an arm across Y/N's shoulders.)

Steve: So, you're a werewolf, huh?

(Y/N): Yeah. I hope this doesn't affect our friendship.

Steve: It won't. It'll take way more than you being a supernatural creature to affect our friendship.

(Y/N): That...that means a lot.

Steve: Don't get soft on me now, O'Connell.

(Y/N): Never.

One Month Later

(Will Byers has been found & everyone is enjoying the holidays. Steve & Nancy are back together, they even bought Jonathan a new camera.)

(Cut to Y/N, as a werewolf, rolling around in the snow. Shortly after that, he's shown in his human form, walking up to a Christmas tree in his living room.)

(Y/N): [sighs] Merry Christmas to me.

(Things may be finally getting back to normal but let's not speak too soon on that. At the Byers' house...)
