Zack: *walking down a corridor* Master?

Mind Flayer: *in proxy form* ah, Zack your in time

Zack: What's my...um gift?

Mind Flayer: *to two Demogorgons beating El* enough

The Demogorgons walks away

Mind Flayer: I think you should have some fun with Eleven, cause her some good pain

Zack: Um okay?

Eleven: *coughs* Zack..? Please..

Mind Flayer: perhaps her body may look appetising for you Zack

Zack: What!? Master I don't do that kind of torture

Mind Flayer: Do it you imbecile! Or at the very least, cut off one of her fingers!

Zack: N-No I don't want to!

Mind Flayer: why? She is the one who ruined me and Dr Brenner, now her own friends are on their way here I want them to know what's coming

Zack: I...I...

Mind Flayer: body, or finger, your choice

Mind Flayer: *just gives a laugh* absolutely hilarious, Channing!

Eleven: Zackie...please...don't

Zack: *softly strokes her head* I'm sorry, El...but I have to *whistles to two Demogorgons*

Eleven: No! PLEASE!!!

the two Demogorgons unstrap Eleven and put her left hand on a table, Zack readied a long claw holding back tears

Zack: I'm sorry. Hold. Very. Still... *He uses the claw to cut off El's ring finger down to the knuckle on her left hand*

Eleven: *screams in pain* AAAAHH!!

Her scream echoed through the lab, including the cells where the test subjects are

Marcy:...*covers her ears*

Bill: sister?

Jamie: *hugs her twin*

Kali: J-Jane..??

Rose: Jane?

Zack: *stands back in horror*

Eleven kept on screaming, even the Demogorgons felt bad. This is way too much

Martin: *arms crossed just staring*

Eleven: ZACK!!! IT HURTS!!!!

Zack: *quickly walks in to try and help her somehow but the Flayer stops him* Master, she's in pain! I must help her!

Mind Flayer: So? I am proud my boy

Zack: Out of my way! El!

Eleven: *still crying from the pain*

Zack: *hugs her* I'm here I'm here shh shh I'm right here *kisses her head* I'm right here, calm down *starts sobbing*

Martin: *picks up her severed finger and gives it to the storm Demogorgon* deliver this to The Party

Storm Demogorgon: *grinning evilly* As you wish *starts flying away*

Zack: Let me take you back

Eleven: Z-Zack...

Zack: yes..?

Eleven: I...I love you...too

Zack: *softly hugs her but is a little confused* what about Mike..?

Eleven: I know that, I just felt how I feel around Alex, a friend thing?

Zack: *nods in agreement*

Zack carried El to her cell with all the test subjects looking concerned

Kali: El? El? Remember me?

Eleven: Sister?

Ricky: Holy fuck, Eleven! Are you now fine?

Marcy: that screaming's going to haunt me...

Bill: Poor Eleven...can we hug her?

Zack: sorry, she wants rest

Eleven: No please Zackie...I want a hug from my brothers and sisters...

Zack: alright *let's her stand up*

he opens the cell doors

Eleven hugs each of her fellow brothers and sisters

Marcy: I miss you so much

Ricky: It's been years

Eleven sees Kali, looking nervous

Kali: Hey, Jane

Eleven: Hi

Kali: *hugs*

Eleven: *hugs back, smiling*

Kali: It's been a long time sister

Eleven: it has..

Jamie: Awe look at you Jane, you're so pretty!

Eleven: thanks *softly smiles* you should have seen my locks *rubs her shaven head*

Bill: Come on, with or without locks, you are still pretty

Eleven: *smiles* thanks Bill *hugs*

Bill: Anytime Jane...

Abby: *to Zack* I...sensed what you did..you cut off her finger...

Zack: I know, I'm sorry...I hope Eleven's friends can get here soon along with Seven

Phil: S-Seven? What do you mean?

Francine: oh yeah, Marcus is still out there

Abby: Wait he's alive?

Francine: Papa is determined to find all subjects including Marcus, and he's the last one

Ricky: I think we best get rest now

Zack: Yes, El needs rest

each subject returned to their cell and Zack carried El back to Hopper's cell

Eleven: I wanna go home...

Zack: I know..I know..

Eleven: I wanna see my friends again...I wanna see Max...I wanna see Alex...I wanna see Mike...

Zack: their coming, don't worry, Don't loose hope *opens Hopper's door*

Hopper: El?

Eleven: Dad..

Hopper: El.. *sees her hand and her ring finger is cut open* I heard screaming...and..what did they do...?!?

Zack: *looks down in guilt* It was me, sir...he forced me, you wouldn't want to know the "other" option

Hopper: WHAT!?!

Eleven: the other option was raping me...

Hopper: Jesus Fucking Christ... *gives El the tightest hug*

Zack: Eleven's friends are just 10 miles out, they'll be here by morning

Hopper: Hope they're here sooner to get us

10 miles out

Sly: *noticed a massive storm*

Alex: Wow, we should get going

Marcus: yeah, it's just up ahead

Joyce: *stares at the lake and notices Torch*

Torch: ah, the sea, I mean lake

Joyce: It sure is

Torch: You know Joyce, you are a very beautiful woman

Will: *chuckles and does a talking hand gesture at Jonathan*

Jonathan: *hold his laughter*

Joyce: Oh, thanks

Max: *quiet thinking about...Billy*

Torch: Joyce, I happen to have a flower just for you

Mike: Did he just actually hitting on Mrs. Byers??

Speed: he did this quite alot back in the days

Alex: Yep, he also hits on one of my aunts, especially different species of aliens

Mike: damn

Joyce: A flower for me?

Torch: yes dear lady *shows the flower* This is a rose, you probably know what this flower means, it is meaning of love *winks*

Alex: *rolls his eyes* Ugh

Torch: I have found this romantic abomination and I think it fits you Joyce

Sly: *chatters*

Joyce: Torch...

Joyce: *chuckles* This is not a rose

Torch: it's not?

Joyce: This is a Russian Lotus, not a rose

Torch:....oh

Everyone: *laughing*

Torch: I...um....whoops

Joyce: But thanks anyway

the waves soon become heavy as a big thunder approaches

Torch: Holy crap!

Max: *covers head* does it rain like this in Russia?!

Steve: Does it have a giant monster in the clouds!?

Zoey: Giant- what makes you say that!?

Steve: *points* There

Mike: oh shit..

They see a shadowy silhouette of a giant monster with two sets of wings, flying inside storm clouds

Will: That's a new one...

Dustin: Holy shit!

it lands in front of them

Fang Tooth: hisses

Storm Demogorgon: Greetings I'm just here to give you this

Everyone is on edge as the Storm Demogorgon gets something it had hidden in it's claws

Storm Demogorgon: *shows them a severed finger*

Erica: a fin-- *pukes over the boat*

Speed: *gasps*

Will: A finger??

Sly: *growls at it*

Storm Demogorgon: Aaand who's it from?

Mike: I don't know...tell us

Storm Demogorgon: here's a hint, she screams, she is my masters most hated enemy, she once sealed the Gate stopping him. She also befriends an alien that can shape-shift, and so stupidly in love with a stupid boy, what a baby idiot she is!

Max: Who would--....El...

Storm Demogorgon: That's right ginger, it's Eleven the weirdo

Joyce: you cut off one of her fingers?!?!

Storm Demogorgons: Oh not me...Zack Channing

Will: What?? No, The Flayer can't have....first Me, then Billy, now him!?

Storm Demogorgon: Yes you stupid child plus he had fun with her *smirks*

Mike: *growls*

Alex: He didn't...

Storm Demogorgon: she screamed real good!

Alex: stop it

Storm Demogorgon: Zack must feel good fucking that gorgeous body of El's!

Alex: *growling* STOP

Storm Demogorgon: no wonder the stupid boy over here loves her

Mike: *crying*

Will: Zack..what did the Flayer do to you...

Storm Demogorgon: Dang, he's good. She's a moaning mess!

Fang Tooth:...let's cut this sucker up! *growls and runs at him*

Storm Demogorgon: *swipes him* She kept begging and begging!

Marcus: shut up, or we'll make you *morphs into a velociraptor*

Alex: Stop please

Storm Demogorgon: did i also mention he choked her for domination

Torch: Holy Christ!

Alex: *starts crying* Stop it please!

Marcus: *just charges at the storm demogorgon in velociraptor*

Storm Demogorgon: *steps on him*

Marcus: ugh!

Storm Demogorgon: such temper, i haven't gotten to the good part

Alex: No please!

Storm: Demogorgon: he told her "who's your daddy" she screamed he was, he slapped her again and asked her again

Alex: STOP IT!!!

Storm Demogorgon: why? It's funny! Haha!

Marcus: *still under it's foot* no it's fucking not!!

Storm Demogorgon: She loves it! He completely destroyed her!

Mike: SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!

Storm Demogorgon: And best of all, he cums inside her *laughing*

Alex: AAAAHHHHH!!!!!

Alex completely loses it, His temper make him turns into a Fire Arrowbird and spits out a large fireball at the Demogorgon

Storm Demogorgon: ugh!! *falls back into the water*

Alex: flies up and flew towards the mountain

Storm Demogorgon: hmph *flies at him*

Marcus: What's he doing!?

Torch: picking a fight, Let's get him!

Mike: No! wait!

Alex is seen about to dive, catching everyone's attention

Marcus: Alex?!

Guy: Это птица ??

Max: what is he up to!?

Kid: Мама! Птичка!

Alex completely flies over the village

Then, he dives to the mountain, which is actually a volcano!

Storm Demogorgon: huh, guess he couldn't take it all

He dived he dived until he disappeared

Marcus: *in a pterodactyl form* is this normal for Fire Arrowbirds? *to Torch who was flying next to him*

Torch: No...we don't do that, it spell us death

Marcus: you mean he just killed himself?!

Torch: hope not...One thing tho, my races much powerful older brother, the Plasma Arrowbird, can---

They hear a loud roar from the volcano

Storm Demogorgon: huh, guess he's still alive

The volcano erupted, lava about to devour the village and then a claw appears

out rose was the Fire Arrowbirds much more faster and more powerful counterpart, The Plasma Arrowbird

Marcus: We gotta help the civillians! Now!!

Alex: *roars*

Everyone flees from Alex, now looking dangerous

Marcus: great lord above...if there even is one

Suddenly, they see jets flying towards the Storm Demogorgon

Storm Demogorgon: fools *He destroyed one of the jets*

Torch: Jesus!

Storm Demogorgon: *destroyed more*

Torch: we've got to stop him!

Robin: We can't!

Max: But Alex can

one of the jets is about to crash at the volcano it crashes near Alex

Alex: *screeches in pain and He spreads his wings and sees the Storm Demogorgon. Now, he's ready to take off* I'm coming for you!

He then soars above the village, leaving deadly casualties

Marcus: no!!

then, hurricanes washes over the town

Marcus and Torch fly down to try and rescue the people

Torch: *shoots fireball at the door* This way lads!

the civilians follow him

Meanwhile, the Storm Demogorgon is getting closer to catch the boat but paused for a moment

Storm Demogorgon: huh?

He looks around until he sees Alex flew in the clouds on his right side

Storm Demogorgon: back for more, huh?

Alex pops out, ready to clash

Storm Demogorgon: *roars*

Alex: *roars back*

We see a stunning imagery of Alex and the Storm Demogorgon pulling out their claws in the middle of storm clouds with lightning coming out. They then clash

Back to the boat

Erica: jesus, their killing eachother!

Mike: Ya think they're dancing!?

back in the village, Torch and Marcus were still getting the civilians to safety

Torch: *tries opening the door* Darn it! It's lock!

Marcus: let me! *morphs into a gorilla and rips the door away* Inside now!

they get into the house and rescue the civilians

Meanwhile in the skies

Storm Demogorgon: *looks around* where are you hiding?

Alex: *screeching*

Storm Demogorgon: *fires lightning bolts*

the lightning bolts missed the target and Alex sends a thunderclap at the Storm Demogorgon with one slap from his wings

Storm Demogorgon: ugh! Damn!

Alex: *high up in the horizon and shrieks at him*

Storm Demogorgon: *shoots lightning*

Alex: *dives and grips his claws at his head*

Storm Demogorgon: *Roars in pain*

Alex: *bites his jaws*

Storm Demogorgon: *blasts with lightning*

Alex: *dodges and flew in to the clouds*

Storm Demogorgon: *just more angry*

Then, Alex ambushed him again and clash within the storm

At the boat, everyone is panicking for what's going on. Everyone but The Party

Dustin: Alex has got this...i think

Mike: He can't hold him off for long

Dustin: oh..

Max: Fuck, this isn't going well

Back in the air

Storm Demogorgon: *grabs him by the wings*

Alex: *dashes towards the Storm Demogorgon*

Storm Demogorgon: *fires a lot of lightning bolts*

Alex: *gave a sadistic smile and a snarl before he barrel-rolls*

Storm Demogorgon: hold still!

Alex: *kept on barrel-rolling*

Storm Demogorgon: *continuously firing then stops*

Alex: *stops rolling and swoops at the Storm Demogorgon*

The Storm Demogorgon tail whips him and Alex went back for another strike

Alex: DIE!! *Swoops down*

The two fighters let out their claws and the winner has revealed

The Storm Demogorgon had caught Alex by the wings

Alex: Hey! Let me go!

Storm Demogorgon: Say hello to Max's brother Billy for us! *shoots a lightning blast right into his chest*

Alex: *roars in defeat and fell to the lake*

Mike: dammit, no!!

Max: What are we gonna do!?

Speed and Fang Tooth come forward defensive

Nancy: Mike! We're going close to the next station!

Jonathan: Look out!

Storm Demogorgon: *flies towards them*

Mike: Oh shit

Speed: *ready* come and get some!

As the Storm Demogorgon is closing in, a Mosasaurus suddenly ambushed him and brought him underwater

Fang Tooth: hey! I was gonna get him!

They see Torch landing by the railings

Torch: Oh yeah? Use common sense buddy because he's twice bigger than you

Fang Tooth: *just stares* you think i care?

Torch: No but you could've died if you do

Joyce: He has a point Fang Tooth

Fang Tooth: errr..hey Speed back me up

Speed: How can you be a leader when you fight something twice as big as you are!?

Fang Tooth was about to speak but was interrupted when the Mosasaurus came up

Mike: Marcus?

Marcus twist his body around to clash with the Demogorgon

Storm Demogorgon: *prepares to overpower him*

Nancy: Uh guys...

Speed: let's help him! rushes but Torch and Fang Tooth pull him back

Torch: you can't swim dumbass!

Speed: Oh right

Nancy: GUYS!

Speed, Fang Tooth and Torch: what?!

Nancy: Is that a missile?

Dustin: a missile!?

In a Russian Government

Russian Soldier: Ракета теперь рядом с целью

Russian Commander: отлично

Underwater, Marcus bites down the neck of the Storm Demogorgon

Lucas: *looking up at the missile* i hope it's not a nuke...

Will: It is a nuke...to kill Marcus and Alex!

Erica: we're gonna die too...we're rather close to it..

Jonathan accelerated the boat, desperate to get everyone as far away as possible

Russian Soldier: Один

Marcus: *snarling as he kept on biting the neck*

Alex who had got up and in the Torpedo form, saw the nuke coming

Alex: Ah motherfucker

Russian Soldier: Два

the boat managed to get over five miles away and further

Marcus: *biting until he pulls the head off*

Alex: MARCUS!!!!

Marcus: *roaring*

The nuke is getting close and...

BOOM

Everything went silent...

the nuke causes a wave which pushes the boat much further away

Mike: AAAAAHHHH!!!!!

Speed: AAA-- oof! *hits the wall* Uhh...*sees crates about to slide towards him*

The Long Legged-Sprinter pulls out a sign and it reads: "Dammit"

on the prison island, Zack was looking through binoculars

Zack: phew

Demogorgon: are the Russians so crazy to send a nuke into one of their coasts?

Zack: Oh yeah it is

Back at the boat

the boat shakes side to side before finally settling

Alex: *climbs up in the boat*

Erica: AAH!! ZOMBIE!! *grabs a raft paddle and bashes his head with it*

Alex: *his head now flatten* owww...

Max: how did he...

Erica: Oh sorry

Alex: You're despicable

Marcus: *also comes up* that was too close..

Mike: Yeah

They see a lot of dead fish floating

Will: that's a lotta fish

They also see a floating dead Storm Demogorgon

Marcus: good

Joyce: What the hell

Alex: it;s dead

Nancy: We have a swimming one, a flying one now this

Erica: the Flayers pretty creative

Mike: I don't think this guy is the last one

Lucas: i don't think so either, we best carry on, i can see the island now

Alex: *picks up a dead and roasted fish and took a bite* Mmm! This is actually good!

Erica: you sure that's not radioactive

Alex: Well its not glowing but this actually taste good! eats it
