Will was now sat on a chair in one of the conference rooms, Mike and Alex next to him.
There was polaroids of the drawings that Will drew yesterday placed on the table in front of him, as he was examining them one by one. The doctors and the three adults were standing right behind the kids, waiting to see if Will would find anything.
"Sam, this is ludicrous." One doctor speaks.
"Just give him a moment, okay?" Dr. Owens looks at him.
"We don't have time..."
"Hey, jackass, why don't you do us all a favor and shut up. Okay?" Hopper looks at the man with an angry expression.
Will then gets up, catching everyones attention and walks around the table with Dr. Owens following him. "That's it." The boy points to one of the polaroids.
"That's what? What's there Will?"
"I don't know. I just know he doesn't want me to see there." The boy looks at the group. "I think it's important."

Will was now back in his hospital bed, Mike and Alex sat on a couch, Bob and Joyce on some hospital chairs. Dr. Owens had sent some of his soldiers into the Upside Down, to search for the spot that Will thought was important. Hopper was with Owens, communicating with the soldiers while the five were waiting for them in Will's room.
"I'm sorry." Will speaks, tearing up.
"What? What do you mean sweetie?" Joyce turns to the boy, stroking through his hair.
"He made me do it." The boy cries.
"Who? Who made you do what?" Joyce takes his hand.
Alex immediately turns to Mike. She knew exactly what the boy meant. The shadow monster was in control of him, meaning that he wanted Dr. Owens to send his soldiers there on purpose. Meaning that they are all going to die.
"I told you. They upset him."
"The spy." Alex speaks not taking her eyes off of Mike. "The spy!" She yells, now turning to the adults and then rushing out of the room. She had to warn them. She had to warn Owens and Hopper and the Soldiers.
She rushes through the hallways with Mike running after her, making her way over to the room where Dr. Owens and Hopper were. However, the doors were guarded by two soldiers.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" The soldiers put their hands up, stopping the two.
"We need to get through!" Alex shouts, trying to push the two guards out of the way, but they were too strong.
"It's a trap!" Mike yells.
"I gotta warn them!" Alex struggles.
Bob has now wrapped his arm around her, not letting her go.
"It's a trap!" Mike repeats now louder punching the soldiers, but Bob wrapped his other arm around him, pulling him back .
"Let me go!" Alex screams, kicking and moving, trying to get away from the man, but nothing helped. He was too strong.
"It's okay. It's okay." He pins the two to the wall.
"It's not okay!" Alex cries. "We're in danger, they're in danger!" She points to the door.
"We need to warn them!" Mike yells.
Bob takes a few breaths, looking at the two.
Just then, an alarm goes off, confusing the man."What the hell?" He looks up.
"We're too late." Mike looks at Alex. He pushes Bob's hand back, Alex doing the same. Mike grabs the girl's hand and the two rush back over to Will's room.
"What?" Bob runs after the two.
"Whats going on?" Joyce asks once the two entered the room.
"We're under attack." Mike explains.
"We need to make Will sleep." Alex says, grabbing a needle from the counter right behind her.
"What?" Joyce turns to the girl.
"He's a spy. If he knows where we are, so does the Shadow Monster." She explains, Mike nodding.
"She's lying!" The boy shouts, his mother holding him down on the bed.
"He killed those soldiers. He'll kill us too!" Mike adds.
"They're lying! They're lying!" Will struggles moving away from Joyce.
"Okay, Will, Will, listen, listen. Do you know who I am?" Joyce looks at the boy. "Do you know who I am?" She repeats.
"You're... You're... You're Mom!"
"Hold him down." Joyce commands to Bob, taking a deep breath and then grabbing the shot from Alex's hand.
"No! No! Let go!" Will begs. "No! No! Let me go! Let go!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Joyce tears up, while walking back over to Will, ready to put him to sleep.
"Let me go! Let go! Let me go!" He grunts. "Let me go!" He shouts one last time until he was finally put to sleep.
Hopper and Owens them burst through the door, panting and staring at Joyce who had the sleeping injection in her hand, and at Will.
Growls and screeches then come from outside of the room. "We gotta go. We gotta go." Hopper looks at the two. The Demogorgon's were in the lab. Mike and Alex were right, they were under attack.
Owens opens up the door for everyone to go out and then Hopper quickly grabs Will, carrying him bridal style. The group rushes out of the room, following Hopper.
They were heading to the closest exit, until they saw people running away from there. They quickly turn back the other way to see soldiers with their guns, shooting one if the Demogorgon's.
"Shit!" Alex curses, Joyce screaming and Mike panting.
"In here!" Hopper opens up a door, leading everyone in there. Owens was the last one to enter, switching the lights on and locking the door.
"Oh, my God." Bob breathes out. They were in the camera room. On every monitor there was footage of dead doctors and soldiers, all covered in blood and the Demogorgon's walking around the place, hungry for blood.
The lights then start flickering, completely going out after a moment. Every thing was dark now, making the situation even more scarier.
"Holy shit."
-
"Look, this is us, and this is the nearest exit." Dr. Owens explains, pointing on the floor plan. "But even if we somehow make it there, there's no way out."
"What do you mean?" Alex furrows her eyebrows.
"The locks are fail secure."
"Fail secure?" Joyce tilts her head in confusion.
"If there's a power outage, the building goes on lockdown."
"Can it be unlocked remotely?" Bob asks.
"With a computer? Sure. But somebody has to reset the breakers." Owens replies.
"Where are the breakers?" Hopper asks, his hands on his waist.
"Breakers are in the basement, three floors down." Owens points on the floor plan.
Hopper sighs and heads over to the door, Bob stopping him. "Hey, where are you going?"
"To reset the breakers." Hopper turns around.
"Okay, then what?" Bob raises his hands.
"Then we get the hell out of here." Hopper answers.
"No. Then the power comes back on. If you wanna unlock the doors, you gotta reboot the computer system, and then override the security codes with a manual input." Bob explains, confusing Hopper and Joyce and Alex.
"Fine, how do i do that?" He sighs.
"You can't. Not unless you know BASIC." Bob tells the man.
"I don't know what that means." Hopper says.
"It's a computer programming language." Mike explains.
"Teach it to me."
"Shall I teach you French while I'm at it Jim? How 'bout a little German?" Bob scoffs. "How about you Doc? You speak BASIC?"
"I- uh, No." Owens admits.
"Okay. I got this." Bob takes a deep breath. "I got this." He repeats looking at Hopper.
"No. Bob." Joyce shakes her head.
"It's okay." Bob pulls her into a hug. "It's gonna be okay. Remember? Bob Newby, superhero." He slightly chuckles.
-
Bob was now headed downstairs, to reset the breakers and unlock the doors while the rest of the group was waiting for him.
Hopper was on a chair, bouncing his leg up and down, Joyce walking around in circles, Owens patiently waiting and Alex and Mike holding each others hands in order to comfort each other.
After a while, the power came back ok, which meant thar Bob had safely gotten to the basement.
"He made it." Alex sighs in relief, smiling at Mike. The two then get closer to the monitors, looking at the footage of the security cameras.
"Okay, Bob, can you hear us?" Owens speaks into his walkie talkie.
Hopper had given Bob a walkie talkie earlier so he could communicate with the group. "Loud and clear Doc. Can you hear me back?" Bob speaks.
"Yeah. We hear you."
"All right. Give me a minute." Bob says, starting on his programming things. "Open sesame." He speaks after a minute, pressing one last button.
"It's open." Dr. Owens turns to the four.
"Son of a bitch did it." Hopper smiles.
"All right I'll meet you outside." Bob voices through the walkie talkie.
"Hold on a second, Chief." Owens says, glancing at one of the monitors.
"Whats wrong?" Hopper asks.
"West stairwell's not clear anymore." He points to the monitor. A Demogorgon was standing on the staircase, digging into the skin of one of the doctors.
"What's going on?" Bob asks.
"We've got some company."
"Where?
"The west stairwell."
"I got an idea." Alex speaks catching everyones attention. The girl closed her eyes, and after a few moments the sprinkler system went off, causing the Demogorgon to leave and clear the path for them.
"Okay. That worked." Owens grins while Alex wiped the blood off of her nose. "Bob, get out of there." He speaks into his walkie talkie.
"Nice one." Hopper smiles high fiving the girl. He places Will on his shoulder and heads to the door.
"Wait a second, Chief?" Owens looks at him, handing him a walkie talkie.
"What are you doing?" Hopper furrows his eyebrows.
"Anymore surprises, I'll let you know."
