a/n: part seven is here & it is the second to last part of this mini series. enjoy :)

You hadn't done much in your head while you were with the frosty creature who had given you tips on what to do if you became the monster you were internally and what not to do.

You took all of these into consideration but you were secretly trying to fight off the anger that was causing you to become who you were.

"How do I get rid of my anger so I don't become this demon?" You asked.

The creature kept the signature smile. "You make the good outweigh the bad."

You felt deep down that you could do it. You could overcome this and not have to deal with being an evil demon monster from another dimension. You didn't want to become something, and not be a human anymore.

You didn't want to become a lab rat for testing.

What felt like a days later when in reality was a few hours, your mind shut off. You felt like you were being suddenly choked while the monster watched you while it was happening.

It waved its long bony fingers as it whispered, "You lost."

You just let go, letting go seemed easier than holding on or fighting at this point. Both seemed pretty useless.

Your vision blurred and you felt your mind completely shut off as you closed your eyes inside of your body, scared for the new you.

—
You awoke during the night with an icy blast accompanying you. Your lips now completely blue, frosty blue eyes that seemed harder than ice, completely blue, curled hair, blue hands, and paler skin to make you seem like even more of a monster.

A small amount of snow had accumulated on the ground while you had been in your evolving state which only made you smile and chuckle.

"Let's have some fun."

—
You tried to tip toe out of their house but decided it would be fine to just leave out the front door and if anyone got in your way, ice them. Including Mike.

The small flame of happiness that was once there was burned out by the cold, angry winds inside of you. You no longer felt sympathy for anyone or anything, just yourself.

You walked out of the house without a problem, walking up the driveway and feeling too hot so with the snap of your fingers (you can make your bed) you began to make it snow above you.

"That's better." You sighed.

—
Hawkins was more fun to be in when you could be a criminal. Freezing people to walls to get some free stuff was something you greatly enjoyed and you couldn't wait to suddenly rule the town of Hawkins. You felt powerful.

Like the police couldn't even stop you.

Your frosty blue eyes found your next target as you stared it down.

"The Hawk. Of course! Who wouldn't want to see movies for free." You smiled to yourself, walking into the movie theater with a shield of ice around you so no one could touch you.

You made it in safely inside, after having to knock out the ticket handler and shove him in a closer.

(pretend some of these movies were on in that time, except for ghostbusters).

You read the sign to see where to go to. You weren't in the mood much for seeing a movie but the thought of scaring everyone sounded delightful so you headed over to Ghostbusters.

You passed Wonder Woman, Spider-Man Homecoming, and Guardians of the Galaxy along the way as you formed a snowball and threw it at someone, quickly rebuilding your ice shield.

You opened the door to the theater, a smirk on your blue lips as you found your next targets.

Your friends.

You saw them notice you. They all stood up and went out the opposite direction but you weren't about to let them go that easily.

As you walked in front of the movie screen, blocking someone's view, they yelled out in their mistake.

"Hey, bitch! Could you move please?"

You stared at their popcorn, freezing it with your eyes even though they didn't have lasers or anything shooting out of them. Just a cold glare was all you needed.

You kept walking, finally exiting the theater to see them all attempting to get on their bikes to pedal off.

You smirked.

A snowball was being built in your hands as you stared at them.

"Aw, so scared." You said, a fake frown painting your lips.

Dustin stared at you in surprise. "What the hell happened, ___?"

"What happened, Dustin, is that I became who I was really meant to be! A monster! How does that sound for a change, huh?" You announced, laughing hysterically afterwards.

Mike suddenly stepped forwards to block your hit to Dustin.

"___."

You rolled your eyes, tossing the snowball in your hand. "What the hell do you want."

You watched him with your frosty eyes as he stared at you, unable to form words until you began to form ice around the soft ball of compacted snow.

"You need to wake up. This is all just a bad dream. You're dreaming, doll."

"Being who I'm meant to be is not a dream, Wheeler! This," You said, holding the ball of snow in one hand while both fingers pointed to the ground beneath your feet. "This is real life."

"___. Listen to me carefully. You're dreaming. You may have blue eyes now but the evil you have inside of you isn't controlling you. You're still here, doll. You're still with us."

You rolled your eyes. "Yeah, right."

The snowball was thrown at him but he swiftly moved out of the way, dodging it to your surprise. You grew angrier, forming yet another snowball as you threw it at him but he dodged it yet again.

"How are you doing that!"

"Because you haven't evolved, ___! You're still with us! You're in a deep sleep and need to wake up. This is all an illusion created by the monster to show you what you'll become if you accept the evil and serve it dinner. We're the light! Trust us!"

Your blue eyes looked at each and every one of your friends before you dropped the snowball to the ground, a small frown adorning your lips as you collapsed once more.

This time, it was only in your head.

All of it.
