*1 year earlier*

Running. She is running.

Her breath is loud, but nowhere near as loud as the sound of her racing heart. Leaves are crunching beneath her feet, and she fears that they will catch up soon.

What she fails to realize is that there is no one chasing her.

While she had been escaping the Hawkins lab, the head individuals were too busy attempting to defeat the monster they had unleashed from the other world.

They were too busy trying to secure 011 to notice that the girl had escaped.

By the time they had defeated the monster, too many people were dead for them to even care about the whereabouts of the escaped girl.

She is in the clear.
