    Summary

    Wait.

    Screaming?

    He knows that scream. It haunted his dreams for the better part of his thirteenth year.

    He’s moving before he’s even fully aware of what he’s doing. He frees himself of his seatbelt for better mobility, twisting in his seat so he can grab at Will.

    Will, who is screaming.

    Will, who is paler than he’s ever seen him.

    Will, his face twisted in agony, in horror.

    In the wake of Vecna successfully opening all four of his gates, the Party is more determined than ever to destroy him before he can cause further harm, but there are more than just demogorgons posing as enemies in Hawkins.

    The military has officially come to town, Eleven is still evading the law, Max is a test subject, Will has his own powers, Steve has a new and confusing thirst for blood, and Mike... well, Mike is trying to figure out what, exactly, it means to be "The Heart."

    (Season 5 rewrite. Picks up right at the end of 4x09, immediately following El's fight with Vecna.)
