Carson's p.o.v

I started walking around Mike's house, when I saw something. No, it couldn't be, could it? I ran inside the basement looking for Eleven. Oh no,

"ELEVEN!" I yelled at the top of my lungs before I heard something outside.

I quickly ran as fast as my legs could carry. When I got to the front of the house I saw Eleven. HOW?

"Eleven, how did you get there? You can't get there that fast." I curiously walked closer.

She was by the object that I saw earlier. It was the box, the box that I find EGGOS in every week. I see her open it, but this time there wasn't a box of EGGOS it was a piece of paper. She slowly grabbed and unfolded it. It was a note, but not just any note it was from Mike. She lifted it up to me since she couldn't read well.

I read, "Dear El," I stopped for a second to look at Eleven. She looked so excited yet so sad. I looked back down on the paper and sighed, "I hope that you are okay. I, we miss you. I look for you everyday, hoping to find you. I'm so close to finally seeing you again. All I need you to do is write on the back of this paper saying where you are. Then put it back in the box. I really do miss you. Love Mike." I put the paper down and looked at Eleven.

She was crying non stop. I let her lay her head on my back and just sit there. About three minutes later I had already written down, the fort in Mike's basement, on the back of the note. Eleven was trying to sleep till tomorrow. I quickly ran in the front of the house only to see that the box wasn't there anymore. Crap! I started yelling in my head, screaming and wishing I didn't have to leave El here. We both know that there is more here in the Upside-Down. I quickly ran as fast as I could, I could barely catch my breath.

"Yes." I quietly said to myself.

The box was there, right where it was before. In Mirkwood. I slowly opened the box and dropped the note in there. Oh I really do hope to get out of here soon. I closed the box and ran back to Mike's house.

Eleven's p.o.v

I sat down in the basement with more hope of finding my friends again than ever. I was dreaming about seeing Mike again and meeting Will. I also thought about listening to Dustins jokes again and watch Lucas play around like he's the king. I had no idea what time it was, but I was hoping that it had been the next day. I was waiting for Carson to come back from her walk or run. I had finished the EGGOS and hoped that there would be more. I started to get bored, like always, so I picked up the supercom and started playing with the little knobs. I started to try and contact someone when I heard something. I put the supercom down and slowly got up. I went to the window and looked out side only to see something treacherous. It was the DEMOGORGON. I fell to the ground with both hands on my ears crying out hoping Carson could hear me.

To my biggest surprise I didn't contact Carson, but I did contact someone else. There was a huge flash and thunder inside the basement. I slowly opened my eyes and saw someone I couldn't tell who it was, so I slowly backed up.

"Um…" I just stared worried that the demogoron outside might of heard the noise.

"EL!?" I know that voice. "Am I dreaming?" There it was I couldn't believe my eyes or ears. IT WAS MIKE!

I got up as fast as I could and tripped over and over until I fell into his arms. "Mike." I whispered, holding onto him like my life depended on it, which it did. Mike was at shock realizing he wasn't in a dream. He looked down at me looking so surprised yet so happy. He wrapped his arms around me and sighed.

"It is you." He smiled.

I remembered something, "Mike," I looked up at him, "de-de-demogor- demogorgon." I stuttered.

"What are you talking about? You killed it remember?" He looked down at me with a concerned looked.

"I did. New demogoron." I looked behind me and pointed, "Window."

Mike looked at the window then at me then back at the window. He walked up to it and looked through the vines. His eyes widened as he slowly looked away.

"We have to get out of here." He said looking at me. "Did you bring me here?" He asked.

"No. You did." I simply answered.

We both heard a loud screech coming from outside. I stared at the window, as I started to tremble. I sat down and started to cry. Mike walked up to me and sat down.

He put his hand on my shoulder and said, "It's okay. Come here."

I still didn't stop crying as he brought me closer. My head was resting on his shoulder, arms around his neck and my legs in his lap. He was calming me down as the demogorgon walked past the house.

"Thank you, Mike." We both held onto each other a little tighter.

"I will always be here for you when you need me for now on I promise." Mike whispered in my ear. I just simply answered with a nod. I knew he was going to be there for me the first day I met him.

Jonathan's p.o.v

I was with Nancy, Will, Lucas, Dustin and Mike. Well I was with Mike until something happened. Something unseen and we'll a little bit blinding as well. Maybe it would be easier to just go back a few minutes and show you.

"That's a completely terrible plan!" Lucas was yelling across the basement as we were all trying to make a plan to get El back.

"At least I could come up with something!" Dustin yelled back, "You have come up with nothing so far!"

"I'm actually trying to think of a good idea!" Lucas was making a pretty good point.

"Shut up!" I started getting annoyed. "Mike has an idea if you guys would please listen."

"Okay, so my idea has to do with the note," Mike was interrupted by Dustin.

"So that's what the paper was! What it say?" He asked leaning forward.

"I was about to tell you. The note said that we were looking for Eleven and told them to write their address on there." Mike looked at Will, "I need you to throw up."

"What!?" Will fell back in question.

"When you throw up you go to the upside down when you go there you can bring Eleven through back here." Mike said.

"Well it does make sense, to the part where you never told me about that small problem you had." I had an angry look on my face as I stared into Will's eyes.

"Yeah, sorry I never told you." Will stood up fixing his chair.

"I still need to know. Does mom know our just them?" I asked.

"Only them." He turned his gaze toward Mike, "And that plan is very stupid by the way." Mike shrugged, "But I'll try."

Everyone was shocked by Will's answer. "Really?" Lucas thought that out of all the people there Will would have the sense not to do something that stupid.

"Yeah, why not?" Will answered.

"Because it's extremely stupid!" Lucas waved his arms about acting like the world was going into madness.

"Eleven helped save my life." Will looked up at everyone, "I want to help save her's."

"Well I think that we should go check the box and see if they answered your note." Nancy came up behind us like she just got there.

"Me to." I agreed.

We all got up and got ready to go when we heard something. We all looked around seeing where it came from. Our eyes all landed on Mike. He was glowing brighter and brighter and brighter when a large purple and blue light appeared. We all ran over to him when he just disappeared.

"Mike!" Nancy screamed louder than I thought possible.

We all started to yell Mike's name looking around everywhere. We all stopped noticing that we were just making a bunch of racket.

"Where the heck did my brother go?" Nancy looked at everyone with a very concerned face.

"Well we know he's not here. Maybe he teleported somewhere." Dustin suggested.

"Really?! Not the time for jokes Dustin!" Nancy slammed her hand into her forehead.

"I'm not joking." He shrugged.

"It does make sense. Plus that's not the weirdest thing I've heard today." I think that maybe Dustin's on to something.

"That might sound absurd, but I think that Dustin's on to something." Lucas has the right idea, "I mean people don't just disappear… like… that. He was right!"

"What?" Will asked, honestly intrigued.

"Eleven isn't dead, she's trying to contact us, but she couldn't do that without us believing in her as well. I don't know why." Lucas was shocked by his own assumptions.

"Are you saying that Eleven brought him to her?" I asked.

"No, i think he's saying that Mike brought himself to her." Dustin said, Lucas smiled and pointed at him.

"Well maybe we can find out when we see the note." Nancy walked to the car, as we all followed.

"I don't think that we are all going to fit." will stated.

"Well try, cuz you ain't riding your bikes with me again." I started the car and waited for everyone to get in.

We barely fit but managed anyways. It was silent for most of the ride, the only noise was the music coming from the radio. Dustin spoke once and that was all, the awkward silence was making it to weird. We finally got to Mirkwood as I stopped the car. Dustin was the first to get out, then Lucas and Will, and finally me. Nancy stayed in the car just in case anyone came by. We started walking through the woods, to the box. When we found it for the second time we all stopped. I bent down and opened the latch, it took me a second to open it. When I did I saw the piece of paper. Will picked it up and looked at the back.

"Mike's…," he looked up at us, "basement."

"I knew it!" Dustin smiled.

"Well what are we waiting for let's save Eleven, and Mike if he's there." Lucas ran back to the car and waited for us there.

"I can't believe I'm going to finally meet her." Will looked up at me with a smile that filled his face.

"Me neither." I looked down at him and brought him closer to my side.

Me Neither.

Carson's p.o.v

I was about to go inside of Mike's basement when I heard something. I slowly walked closer to the door and slid it open. I saw Eleven in the arms of a small figure. I couldn't make out who or what it was, since it was dark. I tilted my head just a bit when I saw it move. My senses came out faster then my train of thought when I jumped up and pushed the dark figure away from El.

"No!" El screamed as I watched the figures face come to the light.

I stopped growling and walked towards the young boy. He looked about El's age, had long black hair, and with eyes as dark as the night. I recognized him in a sort of way. El had described each one of her found friends. I remember her describing a young boy with the name Mike.

"You must be Mike." I said through my mind as usual.

"Y- yeah." Mike sat up and looked at me quietly before saying, "You are Carson aren't you?"

"Yeah, Will told you and your friends about me?"

"I believe you remember one of my friends," I looked at him curiously, "Dustin."

I looked away slowly as tears formed under my small eyes. "El told me she knew him." I looked back at the boy, "I didn't… I couldn't believe it was the Dustin I knew."

Eleven walked up to us and kneeled down next to me. I felt her arm go across my spine and under my stomach. My ears went up when I asked myself a question.

"How did you get here?" I looked at him.

"I honestly have no idea. One second I was at home in my basement then I was here, the upside-down, in my basement." He looked down and crossed his legs.

"Light." We both looked at El who finally spoke. "I heard thunder, then saw bright light." She looked at Mike and crawled back into his lap where she was before.

I saw Mike's face instantly blush. I could tell he saw Eleven as more than a friend when I heard Eleven tell me about him. I walked up by the two and laid down around them with my tail behind Mike's back.

"I think we should get some sleep. We can ask more questions tomorrow." I closed my eyes and slowly drifted off into deep sleep.
