I DO NOT OWN STRANGER THINGS.

Hawkins, Indiana. Earlier That Day.

(Mike's POV)

Before the body of Neil Hargrove was discovered, Mike Wheeler was at home, thinking about El. He was a little ashamed to admit it, even to himself, but he'd had a wet dream about his El the night before. Nonetheless, it had been beautiful. Mike and El had been naked together in the fort he had built for her. She had given her consent. He had been gentle with her. Mike had begged El for the privilege of orgasm and she had allowed it. He had been so disappointed when he had woken up only to discover that it had only been a dream. As he was laying on the couch in the basement, he wanted to call El so badly. However, he was trying not to be so clingy. The last thing that Mike wanted to do was smother her. It was a difficult task. He heard rustling upstairs, but he assumed that his parents were fighting again. Ted and Karen Wheeler had been fighting quite often as of late. The sounds got louder and Mike just hoped that Holly was hiding in her room. Suddenly, he heard his mom calling down to him.

"Michael!" Mrs. Wheeler called out in a strained voice. "Come up here please!" Mike sighed as he stood up and walked up the stairs. As he went into the kitchen, he was struck on the head.

When Mike came to, he found himself back in the basement. He was bound and tied to a chair. Before him stood Agent Tyrone Seibert.

"Hello Michael Wheeler." He sneered as the boy looked at him in disbelief.

"This isn't possible." Mike stuttered. "You can't be alive...El took you down!"

"Your little bitch did a number on me, I'll give you that. Although, if you think that I'm going to go down so easily, think again." Agent Seibert shot back.

"What did you do to my family?" Mike asked.

"Billy's taking care of them." Seibert replied.

"Max's step brother?"

"That's right, he's helping me get what I want: vengeance." Mike tried to fight the binds, but it was no use.

"Let me go!" He shouted.

"I might, if you tell me where Eleven is?" Tyrone offered.

"Never, I'll never tell you!" Mike swore. Agent Seibert hit him across the face. "Where is she?"

"Screw you!" Seibert hit him over and over, but Mike wouldn't sell out his soulmate. Finally, Billy came down with news.

"Old man Wheeler said that the girl is living with Chief Hopper. He gave me his phone number." He said as Tyrone grabbed a cellular phone.

"Call her, tell her to come over." He ordered.

"I won't!" Mike shouted. Agent Seibert hit him once again as he handed the phone to Billy.

"Get the parents to call her, tell her that Mike wants to do a date night." He said as Billy ran up the stairs.

"No!" Mike exclaimed as he struggled. "Don't hurt her!"

(Eleven's POV)

Meanwhile, El was in Hopper's cabin; bored out of her mind. She kept hoping that Mike would call or come over. Suddenly, the phone rang. El ran over and picked it up.

"Hello?" She asked.

"Hello Jane, it's Mrs. Wheeler." Karen said. "Michael wanted to know if you wanted to come over. He was planning a date night." El's eyes lit up at the thought of being with her Mike.

"Yes, I'm coming!" El said with joy.

"Wonderful." Mrs. Wheeler replied, although it sounded s though she was upset about something. El paid it no mind as she hung up the phone and got on her bike. She rode over to the Wheeler home and knocked on the door. To her surprise, the door was open. She slowly walked in and saw that the house seemed to be empty.

"Hello?" She called out as she received no answer. El decided to check downstairs in the basement where Mike often spent his time. She walked down and was greeted by the sight of Mike tied to a chair and gaged. "MIKE!" She screamed. He muttered as she ran over and tried to untie him. He tried to speak but he was still gagged. El finally gave up and removed the gag.

"EL RUN!" Mike cried out. "PLEASE EL, IT'S A TRAP!" She hardly had time to comprehend as Seibert brought his cane down hard on El's head. She fell to the ground and was knocked out.

"We finally got the bitch." He said with delight as he turned to Billy. "Tell our friend that we have Eleven." As Billy ran up, Mike was crying and screaming. When Billy returned with Dr. Martin Brenner, He was livid.

"YOU BASTARD!" Mike screamed. "I'LL FREAKING KILL YOU, YOU FREAKING BASTARD, I'LL FREAKING KILL YOU! YOU FREAKING BASTARD, I'LL FREAKING KILL YOU!"

"How nice to see you again, Michael." Dr. Brenner replied as Mike cried.

"You bastard..." He wailed.

"What do we do now?" Billy asked.

"We wait until Eleven wakes up..." Brenner started.

"And then, we make her pay." Tyrone finished.
