Chapter 16 - Finding Information

Thirteen's POV

I walked in the living room and saw Terry Ives. I walked closer. "Terry?" I asked. She stayed looking at the tv. She kept mumbling those stuff words still.

"My name is Thirteen and I wanted to talk to you about a couple of things," I said kneeling down in front of her.

Her eyes stayed on the tv. She got quiet. "Can I please talk to you?" I asked. She looked over to me. "Rainbow. Sunflower." She muttered. I looked at her confused.

I turned to Becky and looked at her. "Is she okay?" I asked. Beck only looked sad and put her hand over her mouth trying not to cry.

I breathed weird and looked back at Terry. "Four fifty. Breathe. Sunflower. Three to the right. Four to the left." She mumbled out.

I reached my hand out and touch her hand. I closed my eyes and wiped my nose feeling the blood trickle down.

I saw a lot of memories. It showed a girl about my age. She was short and had a boy haircut. "Jane" I heard.

"Breathe. Breathe. Just breathe. They're on there way." Becky said. I saw a hospital and nurses with Terry. They put an oxygen mask over her and stabbed needles into her.

They cut her stomach open and got a baby out. It started crying a lot. A man appeared and pulled down the medical mask he had on. My eyes widened when I saw Papa.

"She wasn't breathing," Becky said. "No, I heard her. She was crying." Terry said. Terry started trying to pull off all the needles out of her arms.

Nurses came in and put her to sleep. I then saw a star room. Terry opened it and I saw two girls. One had long hair while the other had short hair.

She looked at the girls and then closed the door. She walked to this rainbow room and opened it. A girl with blondish hair and a girl with that was different from her were in there.

"Jane." She said. People then grabbed her and dragged her to a room with all the shocking equipment. They strapped her down.

"Four fifty." Someone said. She looked over and saw Papa. A man turned the dials and then pressed the button.

Terry then was shocked for ten seconds. She started breathing heavily. "Breathe. Sunflower. Three to the right. Four to the left. Rainbow, Four fifty." Terry said.

I pulled back and covered my mouth. I wiped my nose and got up. Becky came over worried. "Are you okay?" She asked. I nodded.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, but do you have any records on these people," I said digging the paper out of my bag. I handed her the paper with three people found dead.

She looked at it then at me. She handed it back. "Maybe." She said walking away. I followed her and she went into a room with folders stacked everywhere.

"Before Terry became in that dream-like state, she would keep all these things with missing children." She said. I nodded.

She handed me a folder that said "Missing" on it. I looked through it and found a girl with a shaved head. "This looks like Jane," I said handing her the picture.

"It is. She came down here two years ago but found out about her roommate back in the lab and went to go find her." She said. I looked down in the photo and closed my eyes.

"Kali, We need more money Axel says." I heard. I opened my eyes. I saw the girl that was in Terry's memories but older. "We'll get it soon, Jane. Just be patient." She said.

I stopped and looked at Becky. "I found the girl," I said. "That's good." She said. I got up and grabbed another folder. It had the same people on the paper I had.

"Mr. and Mrs. Drew and their daughter Jennifer Drew," I said to myself. I closed my eyes but couldn't hear anything. I opened my eyes and saw wood in front of them.

I looked down a bit and saw rotting. I stopped and didn't know what to do. "They're dead," I said. "Who is?" Becky asked. "Them. I think they were my parent's." I said.

She hugged me and I started to cry a little. "Hopper was right," I said. "It's alright, sweetie." She said. I let out a sob and hugged her tightly.

We finally broke the hug and I looked up at her a bit. "I think I should be on my way," I said. She nodded and walked me to the door. "Thank you," I said. She smiled a bit.

I closed my eyes and teleported where I saw Jane and Kali at. I almost fell over but caught myself. I walked over and saw people at a table.

"Hello?" I said. They all looked over towards me. "Well, well, look what we have here." A guy said with his hair sticking up.

"What's up with her hair?" A girl said with big puffy hair. "There's no Bingo here tonight old lady." A girl said with blonde puffy hair.

"I'm looking for Eight and Eleven," I said. They looked at each other confused. "I saw them," I said digging into my bag.

"Uh-uh. Hand out of pocket real slow like." A big guy said. Pulled the papers out of Eleven and Eight. I held my hand up. "Give me that." The guy said with the hair sticking up.

He snatched it and looked at it. "is that Kali and Jane?" They asked. "How'd you find us?" He asked. I didn't answer. "Who else knows you're here?" He asked.

"No one," I said. "So, what then? You just come here without anyone else knowing?" He asked. I stayed quiet. "Stay calm. She's just a little kid." The girl said.

"Yeah, a kid that could get us all killed." He said turning to her. He turned back to me and pulled out a knife and pointed it towards me.

"I'm going to have to ask you again. Where did you find us?" He asked. "Axel put down the knife!" They yelled.

"If you don't tell me you're going to start losing things, starting with that pretty white hair of yours." He said.

He then gasped and looked at his hand. He turned to the side and threw his knife down and kept dusting his jacket off.

"You're a terrible dancer, Axel." We heard. I looked over and saw a girl that looked like Eight. It was Eight. "I told you to stay out of my head!" Axel said.

She walked down the stairs and walked towards me. "So, we're threatening little girls now, are we?" she asked. "She knows about you." He said.

They gave her the pictures and she looked at it. I looked down and saw my hair coming back to black. I sighed and looked over.

"Where did you get these?" She asked. "Terry Ives. Jane's mother." I said. "Jane's mother?" She questioned. I grabbed the picture and stuffed it in my bag. "Yes, in her dream circle," I said.

"Dream circle," Axel said scoffing. "I think she's a schizo." He said walking over to his knife. I made the knife move towards me and I grabbed it.

They all looked at me with shock. "I saw you in the rainbow room with Jane. You guys were next to the star room." I said.

I teleported next to Axel. "Here you go," I said handing him the knife. He took it and I walked backward and teleported and turned around to meet Eight again.

She looked at me. "What's your name?" She asked. "Thirteen," I said. "No, your real name." She said. "I don't know," I said.

She went to grab my left arm but I backed away. "Don't worry." She said grabbing my left hand and looking at the tattoo that I wish was never there.

She showed hers. "Jane! It's alright to come down now." She yelled. The girl I saw started coming down the stairs. Her hair was a lot longer now.

She looked at me. "Who's this?" She asked. "Thirteen." She said. I looked at her. "If you don't mind I need to ask question's," I said. They both looked at each other than me.

[Skip Through All The Talking About Her Parent's]

"Well, We don't know about your parents," Kali said. I looked down disappointed. "We're sorry," Jane said. "It's fine. I didn't really think you knew." I said.

"Have you ever met them?" Kali asked. "I don't remember," I said. "How long have you been with this policeman?" Jane asked. I looked over to her.

"Over 300 days," I said. "Does he really think they can work out some kind of deal for you to be free?" Kali asked. "He always says soon," I said.

"Does he always stop you from using your powers?" Kali asked. I nodded. "What you can do is incredible. I've never seen someone with two powers." She said.

"I know you did something to Axel," I said. "Yeah, I can make people see or not see whatever I choose," Kali said. "I can move things with my mind like you," Jane said.

I smiled. Kali opened her hand and a butterfly came out. It started glowing. "This butterfly isn't real. I just convinced your mind it has." Kali said.

I reached out and my hand went through the butterfly. She grabbed it and opened her hand. It was gone. I smiled. "Are you real?" I asked. "Yes." She said.

Just to make sure, I poked her cheek. She playfully slapped my hand away. "It's hot out here. I'm going inside." Jane said getting up. I waved at her and sat with Kali still.

I turned towards Kali who was now standing up. "I want you to meet my friends properly this time." She said. I nodded and got up.

We walked down the stairs and went into the room that they were in. I grabbed my hair and twisted it.

"You know Axel," Kali said. "The spider hater," I said biting my lip from being nervous. Everyone laughed. "This is Dottie, our newest." She said. Dottie waved at me.

"This is Mick, she's our protector." She said. "And you know Jane." She said walking closer to her. I nodded slightly. "And we could never forget about Funshine." She said.

Funshine came closer. He was a lot taller and bigger. He looked like he could crush me by putting a hand on me to rest it. "Don't be frightened by his size. He's a big teddy bear." She said.

Funshine put his arm out. "Nice to meet you, Miss Thirteen." He said. I grabbed his hand and gave him a warm smile.

Kalie then sat down and I looked over. "So, how powerful are you?" Jane asked. I looked at her. "What?" I asked. "Your powers. How powerful are they?" She asked.

"I'm not sure," I said. "I'd love to test them out." She said. I looked at her confused. "I'm going to borrow her," Jane said grabbing my hand and dragging me outside.

Kali followed. We stopped in front of a whole bunch of trains. "Thirteen, you see those trains over there," Kali asked. "Yes," I said.

"I want you to move it towards us." She said. I looked at the train and focused on it. It started tilting but it wasn't moving.

I stopped feeling drained. "It's quite weird to see her hair change white when she uses her powers. "I don't think I can," I said.

"If Jane could you can." She said. "Didn't you say you flipped over a car once," Jane asked. "Yes," I said. "Yes, because you were angry about the bad men taking you away again." She said.

I started to focus on the train again. "I want you to find thing's in your life that make you angry," Kali said. I thought of how Mike and that girl were acting too friendly when he has me.

"I started to get angrier. I raised my hand up and started slowly pulling my hand into a fist. I thought of how Hopper told me my family was dead. It hurt me deeply.

"You were imprisoned," Kali said. I thought of every time I had to go into the room. It made me think of how Hopper never wants me to leave that cabin.

"The bad mean took you away from your home and your family," Kali said. The train was coming closer. "They took everything from you. They stole your life, Thirteen!" Kali yelled.

I thought how Papa wanted me to find the Demogorgon and it made me open the gate. I screamed loudly throwing my hand up.

The train went up into the air and I swung my fist forward. The train flew back into its spot and hit the other trains. I then felt really drained and fell over.

I heard cheering and I looked over to see them all cheering for me. I smiled slightly and sat on my side. "You're pretty powerful," Jane said.

[Skip To Later]

I closed my eyes when I was staring at the tv. I looked at it long enough and heard Mike's voice. "Wil. Will?" Mike said. I opened my eyes and saw the tv.

It was showing what I was seeing in my mind. "What's wrong? Are you hurting again?" Mike asked Will. "What is she doing?" I heard. I looked back. I saw them all staring at me.

"Uh, I saw something," Will said. I ignored them and looked at the tv. "In you now memories?" Mike asked. Will nodded. "The shadow monster. I think I know how to stop him." Will said.

Someone touched my shoulder making the tv go off. I looked back and saw Kali. I wiped my nose. "How did you do that?" She asked. I shrugged not really knowing how I did that.

"I just learned how to do this," I said. She sighed and looked back at them. "Kali?" I asked. "Yes?" She asked turning back to me. "Do you have a pair of scissors?" I asked.

"What do you need them for?" She asked. "I want to cut my hair," I said pointing my forehead. "Like bangs?" She asked. "Yes," I said. Dottie then stood up and smiled.

"I think we should give her a punk rocker makeover." She said. I smiled. "Yeah, we totally should!" Jane said. They looked back at Mick. "Screw it." She said.

They grabbed me and pulled me up. "Bye boys," Jane said. They dragged me to a room with a bed on it. They grabbed a chair and made me sit down.

They grabbed stuff from a closet and other things. "Alright which ones better?" Kali asked. She held up a black shirt with holes in it and another on the that was gray.

"I like the gray shirt," I said. she threw it at me. It landed on top of my head. "Change into that shirt." She said. I got up and walked to another room.

"Where are you going?" Jane asked. "Privacy," I said. "Were all girls." She said. I stopped and turned to them. "My boyfriend Mike says that when I'm naked I need to be alone," I said.

"Just let her," Kali said. I walked into the other room and took off Will's shirt. I put on the gray shirt and grabbed Wills shirt before going to the next room.

"Nice!" Dottie said. "Now let's get those nails done," Dottie said. She held up a verity of colors. "Which colors with black?" She asked.

I looked at them. " I would go with purple," Jane said. I smiled. "Purple," I said. Dottie started painting my nails.

"While she does that," Kali said walking towards me. "Let's do something with your bangs and maybe a little trim with your hair." She said. I looked at her confused.

"Instead of down to your knees. Why don't we cut it to your half thigh? She asked. "We could make your bangs cover one eye. that'd look cool right?" Jane asked.

"Definitely," Kali said. "Alright," I said. She grabbed the scissors and a brush. Mick grabbed the brush and started to comb my hair. "I'm quite jealous of your hair." She said.

"Why?" I asked. "It's so long and pretty." She said. I smiled. "Pretty," I said. I heard the scissors. I closed my eyes and she went cutting away.

I felt her Dottie stop with my nails. "Wow her nails look awesome," Jane said. I looked down and saw my nails were painted black and purple. I smiled.

They leaned me up and grabbed the side of my hair. They started cutting. I closed my eyes and waited. They stopped and brushed my hair back.

I felt my hair go back to my face. I opened my eyes and they were getting makeup out. I looked at them and they turned to me.

"Close your eyes." They all said. I closed them and felt them put it on my eyelids. I felt them put some on my lips and felt the chair move.

"Open your eyes now," Dottie said. I opened them and saw myself in the mirror. "Bitchin'," Dottie said. I looked at her through the mirror confused.

"Bitchin'," I said. They smiled at me. Kali grabbed my hand and dragged me to where the boys were. "What do you think of the new Thirteen?" She asked.

"They nodded at each other and Funshine raised up his thumbs. I smiled and combed my fingers through my hair.

Mike's POV

I sat down in the chair that was next to Will. I looked out the window and saw the pretty sunset. " I wish Thirteen was here again," I said.

"Who?" Will said looking over to me. "Thirteen...My..." I paused feeling embarrassed. "Girlfriend..." I whispered feeling quite embarrassed about it.

Will nodded looking back up at the ceiling. I looked at him strangely. He didn't seem like he knew who I was talking about.

I thought about Thirteen again hoping she'd come to see us again. Its only been a couple of hours and I miss her so much.

"I hope she's okay..."
