  Summary

  If someone gave Will the choice of fight or flight Will would fly away right then and there as he had before. It may seem dramatic but this was actually a life or death situation because his ex-friends were going to kill him if he didn't kill himself first.

   

   

  or

   

   

  In which Will cut off everyone and stayed in Lenora despite the chance to go back when he was 15 but now he's 18 and back in Hawkins to watch his mom get married.
