the others pov

they were sat at the table when suddenly the heard a shout coming from hoppers room. "hey, are you alright y/n?" max asked but y/n just ignored her. she stormed out of the door slamming it behind her with her powers. the others just looked between each other confused. "give her a moment she hates it when people shout at her, it reminds her of papa" el tells them. 

eddie was stood at the doorway and overheard what el said making him feel 10x worse. he slumped down against the wall trying to muffle his tears from the others so they didnt see that he was showing his weak side. 

"Look it's been five minutes i really should check on her" hopper says checking the clock that was hung on the wall. "yeah i dont feel like its safe for her to be alone, you know with the curse" joyce admits. hopper starts to wipe his mouth so he can go out to get y/n but is interrupted by screaming. 

they all leave their food on the table and rush out of the door. eddie also hears the screaming and urgently wipes his tears away. he gets up and rushes to get outside. 

"COME GET ME YOU SON OF A BITCH" they all looked over at y/n who was screaming at the sky swinging her arms around in anger.

"what is she doing?" lucas asks cluelessly. 

"YOU MIGHT AS WELL, I CANT BE ARSED TO PLAY A WAITING GAME WITH YOU" 

eddie feels lightheaded as soon as he realises what she is doing. He felt sick like his stomach was doing cartwheels. "NOOO Y/N" he pushed the others out of the way stumbling down the stairs and ran towards her. "SHIT, SHES SPEAKING TO VECNA" max realises and runs along with eddie soon joined by the rest of the group.

i stood there. was i in the vecna world of the normal world, but hearing eddie call out my name told me that nothing had happened. well that was very anticlimactic. i turned to my side to see eddie running towards me soon embracing me in his arms. "i heard your talk with peter" he says muffled into my hair. "im sorry i wasnt thinking, i- i just miss him so much and i feel so guilty but i shouldnt" i said chocking on my words. i pull away from him to see his face had a confused expression. "what do you mean you shouldnt?" suddenly his grip on my arms tightens. "edd- eddie your hurting me" he was holding me so tight i knew that there would be a bruise. i try to pull my arms out of his grip but he was too strong. "you should be guilty for what you did it was all your fault" his voice was changing pitches one second it was deep and husky the next it was the cheery regular eddie. my eyes shot wide open as i realised what was going on. "y- your not eddie, your vecna" my heart started racing. "why are you so scared y/n, you asked for this" thats when the horrible image of eddies skin melting away stood infront of me, leaving a horrible veiny and slimy figure in front of me. i watched the skin fall to the ground the noise making me slightly retch. "no NO GET OFF" i struggle to get out of his grip but somehow managed falling to the ground. the figure walked closer to me, the smell of rotting flesh filling my nostrils. 

i pushed myself up and started running. i ran back to the cabin and opened the door looking behind me when i ran in. i turned back around to see the lab. the lab i was used to was filled with mutters from orderlies, the heavy feet of the guards. the only sound that could be heard was the hammering of my heart against my collar bones. "no it cant be" i barely whispered to myself. my mind was telling me to run but my body just stayed there trying to process the thousands of thoughts rushing through my mind. i walked down the hallway, all the doors boarded up. my walking speed starting to increase so i could find a door that wasnt boarded up. finally. i pushed open the door to see the basement. i gagged at the smell once again. i cautiously walked down the stairs. at this point i was too invested in the lab that i had totally forgotten that vecna was searching for me. a dim blue light spreading across the room. i turned around the corner seeing not only the pipe that me and 011 escaped through but something that made my heart sink to my feet.

peters body. 

i rushed towards him. his chest still rising. "p-peter?" my fast-paced breathing was limiting the words that came out of my mouth. i lowered myself down to him. his shirt was covered in blood where he was shot. his hand started to raise to my face. "y-your alive" i chocked on my words trying not to cry. his lips parted as he tried to say something but i couldn't hear him. i nodded to tell him to keep trying. 

"Barely" with that he let out a small chuckle, i smiled warmth filling my body as i heard his voice again. surely this cant be real i watched him die, i made the stupid decision of ignoring myself. i was looking around for something that i could use to help him escape with me. "hold onto my shoulder i can help you out of here" a tear slid down his cheek and he slightly shook his head no. "what?" i moved a piece of his hair that was laid across both of his eyes. the tears in them causing them to glisten. "you can't help me out of here" he said weakly. "why?" my heart shattered into what felt like a million pieces. " i can i know i can". he just shook his head giving me a sad smile. "its not real, im not real" he stopped speaking his arm dropping to the ground. the rest of his body going limp. "no NO PETER STAY WITH ME" i looked at his chest to see the blood stain had gotten larger. i looked back to his face. 

his cheeks where being pushed out as if he where moving his tounge around. i did the unthinkable and parted his lips with my fingers. the awfull smell of rotting flesh hitting me once again burning my nostrils. i pushed them apart more. a small gasp left my mouth. i backed away falling to the floor the only thing holding me up where my elbows which where grazed from the fall.

hundreds maybe even thousands of spiders where crawling out of his mouth and making their way up the walls and over the floor. suddenly they started crawling toward me. i didnt have the strength to get up so i pushed myself away with my arms and legs. i backed into what i thought was the wall but it was something worse. i looked up and saw vecna.

"join me y/n" he reached out his hand so i took it. as i was pulled up to my feet. i kicked him but as he regained himself i was thrown towards the wall. shit. "you think you can defeat me with a small kick" he sniggered to himself. "what do you want?" my voice was husky from the pressure on my chest, many more tears flowing down my cheeks. "for you to join me" suddenly we were taken to another place i fell to the ground. it was all red and surrounded by broken parts of a house and grandfather clocks floating mid-air. (The place max was). i was free but not free at the same time. well i wasnt restrained by vecna. "look y/n you can be like them, show your dedication" he pointed toward something behind me. i turned to see chrissy, fred and patrick. My eyes widened, their jaws were crooked and their eyes. Their poor poor eyes where missing leaving small red holes in their faces. i turned back to him. All the energy leaving me to run, I knew my fait.

"will it hurt?" I chocked on my words. he walked over to me wiping a tear off of my face, the feeling of his weird mangled finger somehow relaxing me. I don't know why it's just his touch felt familiar. I looked toward the ground letting out a noise I could only describe as a mix between a whimper and a sigh. "dont give up" i shot my head towards him. "wha-" before i could finish i was flung toward one of the red spikes. vines held me back from escaping. "its time" he started walking towards me. "wait, no please" he stopped in front of me to listen to what i had to say. "will i be....will i be with him?" he just slowly shook his head my knees buckled beneath me the only thing holding me up where the vines. "you will be dead y/n, you will not be with him" these words confused me. suddenly he lifted his hand towards my face. "try not to move" 

i felt all my energy being drained from my body. the only thing i could think off was where i was going. i would consider it hell because peter would not be there.

y/ns eyes were not their usual colour. they were a foggy white. "NO Y/N " eddie shook her the others finally catching up. All the memories with y/n flew through his mind. The day he first met her, he remembered her sass. Then another memory shot through his mind this could be it the memory that saved her. Being in his van blasting his favourite song that could also be y/ns. "hopper?!" he said stressed. "do you have a guitar?". nancy shot her head toward him. "now is not the time to destress by playing your guitar" she said walking up to y/n to try and get her back. "METALLICA" eddie shouted hopper ran off instantly knowing what he meant. everyone was stressed, confused and scared. joyce was holding onto el and max as they cried into her shoulders. she was trying to hide the tears that were falling from her own eyes to protect the others. She thought if she showed weakness it would break the group she was supposed to be the strong one. suddenly hopper came running out with a guitar and a huge speaker. mike and will running over to him to help. they place all the things on the ground. "im going to save you y/n" eddie kissed her forehead, Nancy giving him a shocked look, before running up to the guitar that was already set up. 

he reached into his pocket for his lucky pick. but as he went to start to play his body froze as y/n started to lift into the air. Flashbacks of watching Chris's float into the air, the noise of her bones crunching filled his head again. "EDDIE WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!!" steve shouted. max started to walk over to him a look of determination on her face. "you better get a grip and start playing thats song otherwise you will let y/n die. DO YOU WNAT THAT?" he looks at max then back to y/n. 

"lets do this" he kisses his pick and tilts his neck to crack it. his pick and guitar unite as he starts playing master of puppets. "COME ON Y/N!!"
