011

it was the guards banging on the door trying to break in. suddenly peter grabs my face and pulls me in for a kiss. it was the most heart breaking kiss ever. he then parted, his eyes red from the tears that where now forming. i was left there in shock wondering why he didnt climb in. then i realised. "NO PETER PLEASE" he put the see through ending of the pipe back on, twisting the bolts as fast as he could. i rattled the cover trying to stop him. "NO PLEASE HENRY I CANT LOSE YOU AGAIN" tears now streaming down my cheek. "im sorry Y/N i love you thats why im doing this for you" he handed me his watch through one of the larger gaps. i shook my head in denial. 

then there was a bang and the guards came rushing through the door. "go GO PLEASE". the next thing i saw made me feel sick to my stomach. BANG. the bullet flew out of the mouth of the gun towards peter. i watched it like it was in slow motion. the bullet pierced through his shoulder causing him to fall to the floor. I saw the blood rush from his face leaving him as pale as a ghost, 011 was shaking me but i was too busy wishing and hoping this was not real. i jumped at the feeling of the warm blood splattering my face. i could barely see through the tears. i knew i had to leave but i wanted to comfort him in his last breaths. speak to him to let him know i was there. run my fingers through his soft hair. 

me and 011 crawled through the pipe as fast as we could. after a couple of minutes i could hear the wind at the end of the pipe. the only thing lighting our path was the small torch i gave 011. we got to the end. i was to hurt to be happy. this was peters dream too, he was supposed to come with us. she kicked the lid of the pipe causing it to come off and fall on the grass. we both climbed out pulling each other into a hug. the cold air brushed against my skin and i could feel the goosebumps covering my body and the hairs slowly pricking up. the only sense of warmth i had where the tears flowing down my cheeks leaving a salty taste in my mouth. she pulled away from me the lines on her forehead defined from her frown. "you're the girl peter was talking about" i nodded my head and she embraced me with another hug. i spotted the other pipe peter mentioned which would lead us deep into the forest. 

i grabbed 011s hand and ran towards it. we climbed through but as we were getting to the end of the pipe it almost felt as if it was getting smaller. "011 is it just me or is the pipe getting smaller" i heard her grunt as she was shuffling along. "yeah i thought it was just me too". as we got at the end of the pipe 011 had to push me out and i had to help pull her out. "we're free, oh my god we are actually free". we both jumped up and down. suddenly there was the sound of a twig snapping. i looked over my shoulder to see and outline of someone. "run" i barely whispered. we ran and ran hoping that the figure had not been one of brenners people. i felt the adrenaline pumping through my veins subsiding the pain from the twigs and stones stabbing into them. finally, we stopped the only sound filling the air around us being me and 011 trying to catch our breath. "its starting to get dark we need to find shelter far from here". she agreed and we walked along collecting materials along the way. "011 over here" i waved my hand signalling for her to come over. "this will do, we only need a few sticks to patch it up". above the door of the den it said castle byers, with a little sheet as the door. inside there was a bed and loads of drawings pinned on the walls. 

by the time we were laid in the bed it was pitch black, the only source of light being 011s torch. we both shivered through the night, only getting a few hours of sleep. i was suddenly shook awake by 011. "004 quick we need to leave i hear voices" i listened carefully and i could hear some deep voiced joking and laughing. i could tell they were boys. i looked at my watch it was 10am "shh hold my hand and follow me. no matter what happens dont split apart" she nodded and i got up held her hand and we started creeping out. "HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY DEN" a boy shouted. i thought our haircuts where bad in the lab, but this boys hair was by far the worst. we started running as fast as we could but the group where still running after us. i looked back to check how far apart we were when i heard 011 shout. "Y/N watch out". suddenly i ran into something hard knocking me to the floor. 

"hey kid dont be scared" a man said. 011 helped me up from the ground and held on to me like her life depended on it. "joyce come here" after the man shouted that a short woman came running over. "Oh my god, should i call the police". "NO" i shouted startling them all. "are you ok sweetie? do you know your parents' number?". "Mama is gone" 011 butted in. the woman pulled the man to the side to speak to him. while they were talking the 4 boys and a ginger girl where staring at us. "Should we take them back them back to mine?" i overheard the man say. "what about your cabin?" the woman asked. "why have you got blood on your face" the boy with no front teeth asked and reached to wipe it away. i coldly slapped his hand away. "why is your hair shaved?" a boy with a bandana wrapped around his small afro asked. we never answered we just gripped onto each other. "ok girls we are going to take you back to hoppers house, ok?" i looked at 011 who gave me an unsure look. i looked back at the woman and hesitantly nodded my head yes. 

I held the woman's hand who i suspected to be called Joyce and 011 held on to my spare hand. we climbed into what i think was called a car. we were all cramped in the back as hopper and Joyce were sat in the front. we halted in front of a cabin which was perched next to a huge lake surrounded by acres of trees. i looked at the watch and noticed it took a while to get here, it was 1pm. "here" the lady said as she offered us help. we entered a messy looking cabin. "You can sit here, would you like any food" both me and 011 nodded eagerly. "what's your name?" the curly haired boy asked 011 as he sat next to her on the couch. "011" she simply answered. "Wait eleven, as in the number?" she nodded. "Then what's yours?" the ginger girl asked me. "004". they all looked at us as if we were crazy. "right we have bacon and eggs" they both said as they entered the room carrying a plate each for me and 011. we both shovelled the food down as we were so hungry. as we were eating i overheard the man and woman over talking to the curly haired boy. "There has to be something wrong with them they are saying their names are 011 and 004". 

"i need a drink" 011 whispered to me. "there's a can of drink on that table" she nodded yes. i focused on it and within a second it flew into my hand grabbing everyone attention. "What the fuck" hopper looked in awe. i just smiled innocently back at them. hopper walked over to the table and grabbed a chair. he positioned it Infront of me and 011 and the others did the same. "how did you do that? are you a witch?" i laughed at his question. "no im not a witch. we..." i looked at 011 and she nodded for me to go ahead. "we come from Hawkins lab. we were tested o because we have telekinesis powers, please we cat get sent back there we will get tortured or even killed for escaping" once again we got looks as if we were crazy. "tell us more?" i told him the whole story apart from peter, i knew i would burst into tears if i even went to say his name. 

"what are we going to do hop" joyce said to the man as we were setting up the air beds on the floor. "004 come here sweetie" i walked over to the woman and she started to wipe the blood from my face with a wet cloth. i started to tear up. "whos blood id this, because if your hurt i need to know". i walked around the woman and went on to the porch. i looked out to the lake watching the reflection of the stars. knowing that peter died alone killed me, each time i thought of it my stomach sank. i pulled myself together and went back in. "she saw her best friend or boyfriend get killed when we were escaping, without him we wouldn't have escaped". i cleared my throat making them notice i was stood there. "oh honey" joyce walked over and hugged me. just then we were interrupted by the curly haired boy who was holding some clothes for me and 011.
