  Summary

  It's been over a week since the rifts from the Upside Down have torn through Hawkins. Everyone is on edge, though there seems to be a calm before the storm. The group has time to recollect, and process what- and who- they've lost.

  In the Upside Down, a very confused metalhead wakes up. Alone. Unsure what has happened except for the fact he feels different- not "outsider" or "freak" different. Actually different.

  Was the Upside Down corrupting him? He didn't have the group to tell him all about this, and he was just utterly lost. Could he make it back to Hawkins before he was too far gone? Was anyone actually looking for him? Or were they still hunting him?
