━━━━━━━━━━━━ Eleven lays on the floor whimpering out in pain as you move to look down at her leg as something continues to move in her leg.
"What is that?"
"There's something in there"
"Jesus Christ"
"Keep her talking. Keep her awake, okay?" Jonathan says running off quickly
"Okay. Hey, El, you're gonna be okay. You're gonna be okay" you say moving El so she is laying with her back against Mikes chest
"You know, it's not actually that bad. There was a goalie on my soccer team, Beth Wildfire, this other girl slid into her leg, and the bone came out of her knee, six inches or something, it was insane" Robin tells her
"Robin"
"I'm sorry" Robin says as Jonathan runs back
"Okay. Alright, El? This is gonna hurt like hell, okay?" Jonathan tells El
"Okay" she says sobbing as Mike holds her hand
"I need you to stay real still. Here, you're gonna want to bite down on this, okay?" Jonathan says handing Mike a wooden spoon and puts it in El's mouth "When i cut it open you're gonna pull it out"
"What?!" you ask him
"With your powers"
"Jesus christ" Dustin says again and Jonathan gets ready to cut her leg
"Do it" Mike tells Jonathan
He then moves the knife and starts to cut into Els leg making her shut her eyes and place her head back onto Mikes shoulder as she screams out.
Jonathan then drops the knife to the ground and moves over so you can move to sit in front of her leg. You quickly wrap purple inside her leg trying to pull whatever it is out.
"I can't! I can't get it!" you say as you struggle
"No! Stop it!" El says spitting out the wooden spoon "Stop! Stop!" she screams at you making the purple fade away "I can do it. I can do it" she says sitting up
With a deep breath El lefts up her hand in front of her cut using her powers she starts the get the creature out of her leg.
El let's out a loud scream making the glass behind the group shatter around them as El keeps screaming and finally the small creature comes flying out of her leg and onto the ground.
The small creature then starts to move away from the group but a boot steps on it killing it. They then look up to see Hopper, Joyce and Murray Bauman standing in front of them.

"I don't understand" you say as the group now all sit by the water fountain "What does this monster want?"
"You" Mike answers your question "The Mind Flayer, it built this monster in Hawkins, to stop El"
"What does it want with me?" you ask him confused
"It didn't say exactly" El says making you look to her "It just wants you"
"How big is this thing?" Hopper asks them
You turn around wiping the tears from under your eyes as Steve walks over to pull you into his arms and you happily stay there.
"It's big. Thirty feet, at least" Jonathan tells him
"Yeah, it sorta destroyed your cabin. Sorry" Lucas says to Hopper
"Okay, so. Just to be clear, this big fleshy spider thing that hurt El, it's some kind of gigantic... weapon?" Steve asks trying to get an understanding
"Yes" Nancy answers
"But instead of, like, screws and metal, the Mind Flayer made its weapon with melted people"
"Yes, exactly"
"Yeah, okay, yeah, i'm just making sure" Steve says sighing
"Are we sure this thing is still out there, still alive?" Joyce asks
"El beat the shit out of it, but yeah it's still alive" Max answers her
"But if we close the gate again-"
"We cut the brain off from the body" Max cuts Will off
"And kill it. Theoretically" Lucas says
"Yoo-hoo! Yoo-hoo" Murray calls out waving papers to running over to them
"I can't do this. Not again" you say looking up at Steve
"I know, baby. I know" Steve says moving his hands up to your shoulders
"What could it possibly want with me" you ask running your hands through your hair
"You, your powers. You said you were the only one with different powers and you opened and closed the gate" Steve says making you sigh
"Okay, this is what Alexei called 'the hub'" Murray says putting the paper down on the table and they all move around the table "Right here. I don't know the scale on this, but i think it's fairly close to the vault room, maybe 50 feet or so"
"More like 500" Erica says making them look at her "What, you're just gonna waltz in there like it's commie Disneyland or something?"
"I'm sorry, who are you?" Murray asks her
"Erica Sinclair. Who are you?" she asks him
"Murray Bauman" he answers her
"Listen, Mr Bunman, i'm not trying to tell you how to do things, but i've been down in that shithole for 24 hours. And with all due respect, you do what that man tells you, you're all gonna die" Erica tells him
"I'm sorry, why is this four year old speaking to me?" Murray asks
"I'm 10 you bald basted!" she says loudly
"Erica!" Lucas says
"Just the facts"
"She's right. You're all gonna die, but you don't have to. Excuse me. Sorry, may i?" Dustin asks Murray
"Please" he says and Dustin sits down looking at the map
"Okay, see this room here? This is a storage facility. There's a hatch in here that feeds into their underground ventilation system. That will lead you to the base of the weapon. It's a bit of a maze down there, but between me and Erica, we can show you the way" Dustin explains to everyone
"You can show us the way?" Hopper asks him
"Don't worry, you can do all the fighting and the dangerous hero shit and we'll just be your navigators" Dustin says
"No. Nope" Hopper says shaking his head
⋆｡˚ ⋆
"Hey, heads up. You can navigate, just from someplace safe" Hopper says to throwing Dustin a supercomm
"It's not that simple" Dustin tells him
"The signal won't reach" Erica adds on
"Not with this. You need something with a high enough frequency band to relay with the Russians radio tower. But with that to work, you need someone who has seen their comma room and has access to a super power handcrafted radio tower, one preferably already situated at the highest point in Hawkins. Oh wait. That's me. If you want us to navigate, you got us. But we need a head start. And a car"
