  Summary

  Bylerween Day 2 - Came Back Wrong

  "Will Byers is dead. Or so it would seem.

  It's morning in the fall of 1988 in Hawkins, Indiana, and Will Byers has been dead for the better part of a year. The last thing Mike Wheeler, our brave protagonist, heard from Will was something along the lines of: "The connection- I can't feel him-!" right before the air in the Upside Down turned to the color of blood clots mixed with charcoal, and Will Byers was no more, just as he wasn't in 1983."

  or

  A Mike-centric fic in which he finds something far better than just a monster lurking in the shadows.
