The gang had taken shelter in a convent store. Joyce was attending to Eleven's leg as Lucas caught everyone up. "So let me get something straight," Dustin said. "Mike has become possessed by a Tarraque and he is trying to kill all of us."
They all nod. "The only way to defeat a Tarraque is to kill the host," Max said. The room then went quiet. The sad moment was over when Joyce pulled something out of Eleven's leg. It was a slug creature. Everyone acted disgusted by it.
"Kill it," Dustin said. Steve grabbed a chair and beat it. The eventually killed it.
"We found the Russian base," the girl, also known as Robyn, said. "They have this machine that's trying to open the upside down."
"Can you lead us there?" Hopper asked. Robyn nods.
"I'm going to stay to help with the battle," Steve said.
"Ok," Robyn said. "I'll be ok getting them there."
Joyce finished up the stitches on Eleven. Everyone hugged and said goodbye to each other, then Robyn, Erica, Hopper, Murray, and Joyce left. "Now, let's kick some upside down behind," Steve said.
The remaining group finished as Will grabbed his neck. "He's awaken," Will said. The group ran to the center of the mall. A monster was behind Mike. It was the real Tarraque.
"Stay hidden," Eleven said. "I'm the only one who can fight him."
Eleven walked to Mike as the others reluctantly hide. Mike smirked and said, "It's time for our battle. It's been destined since the begging of time"
The two then started fighting. She was unaware of how strong Mike was now. He quickly overpowered her. She kicked him as he dragged her by the ankle towards the monster.
"Mike please," Eleven said, tears welling up in her eyes. Her and Mike make eye contact. Eleven saw the man she loved. His eyes said he loved her to. He lets go of Eleven's ankle and there was a blinding bright light.
As the light faded, she saw the monster was gone. She saw Mike's body and ran to it. She held him close. "Mike, please wake up," Eleven said. Everyone ran to her. "This isn't funny."
Mike's body was limp. There was no pulse. Everyone started crying as Eleven cradled Mike's dead body. Little did she know, she lost two people that night.
A/N: Next chapter is a epilogue! I don't think this story will have a sequel. I might write one once season 4 comes out. Thank you again for the reads and reviews! I will definitely do more stranger things fanfictions.
