I DO NOT OWN STRANGER THINGS OR QUEEN.
After Mike hung up, he called Max over the super com and told her the awesome news. She immediately called everyone to a party meeting at the cabin. After about 15 minutes, everyone arrived at the cabin: Will the cleric, Dustin the bard, Lucas the ranger, and Max the Zoomer; as well as Mike the Paladin and El the mage.
"Steve was gonna show me his playboy collection." Dustin whined. "This had better be good."
"We won 6 tickets to see Queen!" El exclaimed. For a moment, everyone was stunned.
"Queen?" Will asked in shock.
"We're talking about Queen right, not the queen of England or the queen of Hawkins Day right?" Lucas clarified. "When you say Queen, you mean the band with Freddie Mercury, right?"
"The same." Mike assured the party as they all were overflowing with excitement.
"We're actually gonna see Queen...in person!" Max said as she wrapped her arms around Lucas and kissed him deeply.
"When Jonathan finds out, he is gonna blow his shit!" Will exclaimed.
"So where are the tickets?" Dustin asked.
"They're at the radio station, we have to pick them up when we get to Indianapolis." Max replied.
"When is the concert?" Lucas inquired.
"Friday." El replied.
"That's tomorrow!" Dustin replied.
"We aren't that far from Indianapolis." Mike replied. "It's only about an hour away."
"There's a problem." Will said. "You said you won 6 tickets, right?"
"Yeah, one for each of us." Mike stated.
"Yeah, but who's gonna take us?" Will asked. "None of us have our licenses." Everyone's jaws dropped as they realized that Will spoke the truth.
"No man, this can't be happening." Dustin hyperventilated.
"I can drive." Max offered.
"You don't have a license." Lucas pointed out.
"I can still drive Stalker." Max shot back. "I drove Steve's car out to the pumpkin field last year, remember?."
"That was across town Max, Indianapolis is over 60 miles away!" Mike pointed out.
"So what, you don't want to see Queen?" She asked as El looked at him with fear in her eyes.
"Don't go putting words in my mouth!" He argued.
"Come on Mike, let her drive!" Dustin whined.
"Fine!" He conceded.
"What about Dad?" El asked. Mike gulped at that. He had forgotten that he was going to have to ask Hopper for permission to take his daughter on a trip like this and it scared him.
"Well, your her boyfriend Mike, I guess you have to be the one to ask him." Lucas insisted. Mike groaned as Eleven put her arms around him.
Later that day, when Chief Hopper came home from his duties, Mike and El explained to him what had happened and what an opportunity this was for not just them, but the entire party as well. They asked the chief to wait until they were done speaking and to his credit, he allowed the lovers to say their peace.
"it's a once and a lifetime chance and we thought that we should ask your permission before going." Mike explained.
"Well Wheeler, that's very mature of you." Jim said as he polished of the beer that he had been drinking.
"So..."
"No."
"No?" Mike and El gasped.
"Yes...No."
"But chief, you don't know what this means to us..to El." Mike argued.
"Going all the way to Indianapolis is a risk and we don't take risks." Hopper shot back. "They're stupid and..."
"We're not stupid." El gritted.
"She won't be by herself, we'll all be with her constantly."
"You're just kids, with no parents. Do you think your folks are going to let you all go by yourselves?"
"My dad doesn't care and my mom is too distracted with Nancy and Holly." Mike assured.
"Be that as it may, Jane is still not going." Hopper stated.
"Yes I am." El replied. "I am going with Mike."
"No you are not." The chief said angrily. "I am your father and I make the rules here."
"I don't cate." She shot back. "I am going with friends to see Queen and you can't stop me." This pissed Hopper off.
"That is it, you are grounded!" He exclaimed. "No eggos and no tv for a week and also no friends."
"I HATE YOU!" She screamed as she stormed into her room and used her powers to slam the door shut.
"You all should go." Jim said as the kids quietly left. Mike cried as he pedaled home. How could he go to a Queen concert without the love of his life?
CAN THE PARTY GET ELEVEN TO THE QUEEN CONCERT? REVIEWS NEEDED AND APPRECIATED.
