We all stayed inside and chilled until we got the all clear from Hopper. From the distance, we heard loud music playing and an engine running. Max and Lucas ran to the window.

"It's my brother." Shit, Billy. "He can't know I'm here. He'll kill me." She looked at at us. "He'll kill us." The car stops. Steve looked at the door and I placed my hands on his chest.

"What do you think you are going to do?" I told him.

"Have a one on one with him." I faked a laugh.

"You actually think you gonna take on him?" I pointed at the door.

"I did it once."

"Oh yeah when he was drunk, what about sober?" I still had my hands on his chest.

"Dont worry about me, i got this. Just take care of the kids."

"How can i not worry? You're Steve Harrington." I joked.

"Exactly." He walked away and went outside. I sighed as he closed the door.

"Exactly." I whispered. I looked at the kids who were gathered at the window. "Get away from the windows." They all listened and backed up. "Dustin do me a favor gather all things that look like weapons okay." He nodded and went around the rooms to check. The kids went back to the window. "Hey! I said get away from The windows!" I yelled at them. They gasped and ducked down.

"Shit! Did he see us?" I rolled my eyes. Billy comes in my house.

"Oh, shit. Get behind me now!" I yelled at the kids as they scrambled behind me. Billy looks up and down at me. He smirked as he laid his eyes on my chest.

"Wait a damn minute, is that who i think that is? Wendy the whore Byers?" He laughs.

"Whats up Gremlin." I said.

"Lucas Sinclair." He said as Lucas peeked out behind me. "What a surprise." He came closer but they all backed up.

"I need you to leave." I ordered.

"By whos orders?"

"Mine. This is my house. Get off my property Billy." He smiles and slaps me across the face. I fall down from the power of the slap. I groan in pain.

"I thought I told you to stay away from him, Max."

"Billy, go away." I quickly stood up to protect the kids.

"You disobeyed me. And you know what happens when you disobey me." He told Max.

"Billy." She begs.

"I break things." He threw a plate near my face, making me duck down. Billy grabbed Lucas and picked him up.

"Since Maxine won't listen to me, maybe you will. You stay away from her. Stay away from her! You hear me?" He yelled at Lucas.

"I said get off me!" Lucas struggled. I ran up to him.

"Hey batter up!" I yelled as I swung the broken chair at him. Billy drops Lucas and looks at me.

"So dead, Byers! You're dead."

"No." Steve said as he pushed me aside. "You are." He swung a punch to Billy. Billy fell back. The kids held each other and I watched as I protected them.

"Steve!" I yelled as Billy swung. Billy laughs and spits out his blood.

"Looks like you got some fire in you after all, huh? I've been waiting to meet this King Steve everybody's been telling me so much about." Billy yelled out.

"Get out." Steve said as he pushed Billy. Billy laughs and tackles Steve. They began to fight.

"Yes! Kick his ass, Steve!"

"Get him!"

"Murder the son of a bitch!" The kids cheered on. I held them back. Billy was beating up Steve so bad. He started to laugh.

"Steve!" I yelled out.

"How embarrassing is that your girlfriend is seeing you get destroyed?" He said to Steve. Steve didnt move. I couldn't just stand there.

"No steve!" I grabbed my guitar and ran up to Billy. "Ahh!" I smashed my guitar to Billys back. He got off of Steve. I hit him again. "I learned a good thing from a good friend of mine, dont ever let a man touch you like that." I grabbed his shirt and punched him.

"Round 2?" He grabbed me and flipped me over.

"Screw you!" I spit on his face. He punched me and Steve tackled Billy.

"Get off of her!" He said as he punched him. Billy punched him again and Steve laid there. The kids were yelling.

"Whoo! Get up!" Billy said as he continued to punch him.

"Let him go!" I punched him. He turned back and grabbed my neck and pinned my against the wall. He lifted me up, my toes couldnt reach the floor. I started to gasp for air. I scratched his face but he wouldnt budge. Max came running in and Billy lets me go. I closed my eyes.

"Can you drive?" I heard.

"Give me a second." I choked out.

"How many fingers am i holding up?" I couldn't see anything. It was all blurry.

"Is that a dog?" I guessed.

"Shes gone." they dragged us to Billys car and drove. I didnt even know what happened since I pasted out.

"Guys." I woke up. I rubbed my neck and got out of the car. "Oh, no. Guys. Hey, where do you think you're going? What are you, deaf? Hello? We are not going down there right now. I made myself clear." The kids ignored Steve and started to gear up. "Hey, there's no chance we're going to that hole, all right? This ends right now!"

"Steve, you're upset, I get it." Dustin calmed him down. I leaned against the car and started to put the gear on. I mean, i know either way, we're gonna go down there. "But the bottom line is, a party member requires assistance, and it is our duty to provide that assistance. Now, I know you promised Nance that you would keep us safe. So, keep us safe." Steve sighs and put on the gear.

"Holy shit." I said as I shined my flashlight. It looked like it was snowing.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's this way." Mike said.

"You're pretty sure, or you're certain?"

"I'm 100% sure. Just follow me and you'll know."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa." Steve said. I couldnt look away from his bloody nose, puffy eye, bruised cheek, he was messed up.  "Hey, hey, hey, hey. I don't think so."

"What?" Mike nagged.

"Any of you little shits die down here, I'm getting the blame. Got it, dipshit? From here on out, I'm leading the way. Come on, let's go. Come on. Hey, a little hustle."We all went down and walked. I stayed in the back so nobody would be behind. "Are you feeling okay?" He asked as Mike was looking which way to go.

"Yeah, im fine. All sunshine and rainbows. No Steve im not, the son of a bitch choked me to death."

"At least you got a few good licks in." I chuckled. Mike walked and we followed.

"What is this place?" I asked. I saw Dustin walk behind me and I heard a scream. I turned back and saw him.

"What the hell?" He screamed. "Shit! - Help! Help! Help!" I held him.

"Dustin." The kids yelled. Dustin continued to swear. 

"What happened?" Steve ran to him and checked on him.

"It's in my mouth! Some got on my mouth! Shit!" He cried and coughs. "I'm okay." Everyone sighed and walked again. I let him walk in front of me and we all looked around the place.

"All right, Wheeler." We where here. "I think we found your hub."

"Drench it." Mike said sternly. We got the gasoline and spread it all over the place.

"You ready?" Steve asked us. Everyone nodded. I looked at him.

"Lets go." I said.

"Light her up." Dustin commanded. Steve sighed and took out his lighter.

"I am in such deep shit." He said as he tossed the lighter in.
