( heyo. So I've noticed I usually get feedback on my chapters, but these past couple ones I haven't. I've also decreased in views by a bit. It's not that views mean anything, it's just I feel like I did something wrong with the story and I would love to hear some feedback from you guys!)

HOPPER'S P.O.V
I sit by Sarah's hospital bed, holding her hand. The doctors said she might live. Might. The words flows through one ear and out the other. In my book, there is no might. She either lives or she dies. And right now, it seems like she's on the brink of death. Her breathing is steady, her eyes were fluttering. She is in a deep sleep. I smile at the sight. Maybe I can hold onto that might. I'm startled by a knock on the door. "Come on in." I say. Two doctors, one male and one female, walk in. By the way they dressed and acted, you wouldn't of guessed them to be doctors if it weren't for the stethoscopes and white doctors coats. I tried to look at the names on their badges, but for some reason it seemed blurry to me. Must be lack of sleep. "Got any good news, docs?" I ask. The male doctor smiled. "Actually, I do. After all the long procedures, your daughter is finally free of cancer." I gasped and stood up. " a- a-are you serious? H-how can it go away that fast?" "It's a miracle." The woman doctor replied. I run up and hug her. "This is amazing. Thank you so much." I smile and look back over to Sarah. All of a sudden I hear a low growling sound. I turn around at the doctors. They were smiling. But their teeth were not human like. They were yellow and pointy, and their eyes were pitch black. They spoke again, in a low screechy voice. The voice of Satan. "YOU DUMB FUCK. DID YOU ACTUALLY THINK YOURE DAUGHTER WAS GOING TO SURVIVE? HAHAHA. SHES DEAD AS DIRT!" the woman doctor says. Thin streaks of blood flows out of her mouth. Terrified, I turn around and look at my daughter. She sat upright, her eyes also pitch black, head cocked sideways. "Oh daddy.. you could've saved me.. you DIDNT TRY HARD ENOUGH!" Sarah says before crying. Her lifeline was beeping now. I turned my head back to the doctors, but they were gone. I looked out the doors small window. On the wall in bright blue was the words: "Hawkins National Laboratory: U.S Department of Energy:" the lifeline was slowly speeding. I look down. What have I've done? "Hopper...hopper..." I look up. Outside the window was Mike and Eleven.. holding hands, eyes also pitch black. "Come find us Hopper.." Eleven says. "You'll have so much fun where we are. Hehehe."
"Yeah, come find us you bitch. I mean you failed as a dad AND a husband. What are you gonna fail as a cop now?" Demonic Mike says. Blood poured down from El's eyes. And poof, they disappeared. beepbeepbeepbeep. Sarah's lifeline was terribly fast. I look back at her. Her eyes started slowly closing. I run up to her and shake her vigorously. "NO!" I DID NOT FAIL AT BEING A FATHER!" I say, tears streaming down my face. beeeeeep. It was too late. Sarah lied dead, once again. The world gets bright and fuzzy.... before I wake up. I jump in my seat. A sting of pain runs down my back and I have a stitch in my neck. I realize I'm still at the police station. Everyone has gone home besides the night guard. I look at the clock. "12:10" shit. I put my head in my hands. What a terrible nightmare. Yeah, it was only a nightmare. I look up to check 12. She sat upright, staring straight at me. I thought about my dream and how Sarah had looked at me like that, and I jumped. "SHIT!" 12 looked at me confused. Her confusion then slowly turned to fear. "Wh-where am I?" She says. "You're at the Hawkins Police Department. My names Hopper. I need you to answer some questions."
"Okay." She says, before crying. she looked down. "It got Will, I KNOW it got Will!" She says, practically sobbing. The night guard can't know I'm here, and he can't know about 12, so I quickly shut her crying up. "Shhh shh shhhhh." I say "Will is okay. He's just in a deep...sleep." I said. Just like 12 was. And if she's awake that means.. oh Joyce must be so happy. "Listen." I whispered to her. "I can't talk to you here okay. We need to go somewhere else. We're going to sneak out and that means you have to be EXTREMELY quiet for me. Ok?" She nods. I walk up to her and put my arm around her. She looks at me confused and worried. "I'm gonna pick you up so it's easier to move you okay? Do you trust me?"
"Trust? What's trust?"
I think about how Mike must've had to of explained everything to El.
"You know what.. nevermind." I say before picking her up. I turned off my light in my room and slowly opened my door. I walk a few steps down the hall and peek into the main room. The night guard sat looking ahead, tapping his gun. Shit. I think for a bit, and then walked back down the hallway so the guard couldn't hear me. I pulled out my walkie talkie and hit the button. "Yeah we have a robbery at Dave's Groceries by Cornerstone Dr. I need all hands on deck." I said. I then wait patiently as the night guard walks out. Right when I hear his car pull out, I walk out and get Into mine. We always have extra cop cars, which is why mine wasn't suspicious. I pull out and start driving. 12 looks at me from the passenger seat. "Where are we going?"
"My house."
DUSTIN'S P.O.V.
I wake up to Lucas snoring on my lap. I had a stitch in the back of my head. I look outside. It's night. "Shit." I shake Lucas. "Lucas... hey Lucas... LUCAS GET UP DIP SHIT!" I say and I smack his arm. He sits up.. groaning. "Dude we were asleep for like forever. It's past midnight."
"Wh-where's Will.."
"I don't know man. I don't think he woke up yet. Bro before you fell asleep you looked hella sick."
"Yeah and I feel hella sick too.." he says before touching the side of his head. There was a huge bump where Mike had hit him.
"Look I think I'm just gonna go home" he says.
"But what about Will?"
"I'm sure Joyce will give us a call when he does wake up."
Me and Lucas stands up, slings our backpacks over our shoulders, and we head to the front door. Right before we walked out Nancy opened the door to the stairwell. "Dustin..Lucas.." she says panting. "He's awake." Me and Lucas exchange glances and then we start to run up the stairs.
ELEVENS'S P.O.V
Me and Mike have been sitting in Will's room.. staring at the goop covered walls, trying not to notice the awful stench in the air. He looks very sad, and I feel like it's all my fault. I should've never pulled him in here. I really wanted to tell him how I felt.. and friends don't lie so..
"Mike, I'm sorry."
"Sorry? For what?"
"I'm sorry I pulled you in here. It's all my fault." I say before sobbing.
"Nonono el." He says before walking up to me and pulling me into a hug.
"Don't put this on you." He says. "Look at me." He says and he tilts my head till our eyes met. "I promise that we're gonna get out of here eleven. We just have to hold on a little longer while I think of a plan."
"We're gonna die.." I say. "Barb.."
"Barb was unlucky." I say. "You know this place better then anyone else. That's why I'm gonna need your help. Ok?"
I nod.
"Now. Can you think of any portals that we can go through that's not already closed?" He asks and looks at me thoughtfully.
I thought for a minute.
"School."
"The school?"
I nod.
"Okay. Good. All we have to do is find out how to get there without the Demogorgon getting to us. The word Demogorgon made me jump in itself. Mike notices and wraps his arms around me. "Don't worry. I'm not gonna let anything get you. Not this time." He says before looking down. I lay my head on his shoulder and close my eyes. I need some rest. I feel my body shift as I lay down on Mike's lap. He slowly runs his fingers through my hair as I doze off to a not so peaceful sleep.
