Dustin led both of the older teens to where he and Lucas were meeting, it was a field full of old, rusty cars and buses. "oh yeah, this will do." Steve said before taking off his sunglasses "Nice place you got here, Dustin" Cheryl patted his shoulder before grabbing a white bucket and threw out the red meat on the ground, hopefully Dart would show up. 

Cheryl turned the bucket around, making all the fresh meat pour out "yuck." Cheryl looked away from the meat "you don't like meat?" Steve asked her while taking off his sunglasses again "I do like meat, but hate looking at raw ones"  

"I said medium well!" Lucas shouted, he was on a hill with Max near him, they both rode together. "Who's that?" Steve questioned while looking at the bright orange hair girl "The girl he likes" Cheryl whispered to Steve, he nodded his head. She turned her head to the right to see Dustin, his facial expression was confused and mad on why Max came along. "Lucas we need to talk... Privately"  Dustin told Lucas when he walked down the hill.

Cheryl grabbed a rusty broken door off from a old car, her plan was to put it around the broken bus like Max was doing. "so... Dustin likes her?" Steve looked over at Max, "yup" Cheryl walked over to the bus and put the rusty door down "she looks cool" He complicated "and has an attitude."  She huffed as she grabbed another thing, but it was heavy and hard to carry.

"Looks like you're struggling" Steve looked down at the heavy object "mind giving me a hand?" She gave him a smile and puppy eyes "alright fine" as he grabbed it, his hand touched Cheryl's, she felt her face heat up and tried to hide it by looking behind her "oh boy, this is heavy" He sighed "I thought you were a strong man?" She teased "I am strong" "aren't you the one that uses Farrah Fawcett spray?" she joked again "do I see the face of a jealous person?"He ran his hands through his thick hair "jealous of this beauty?" Cheryl laughed while her hand was over her lips "totally." His smile went all the way to his rosy cheeks.

Cheryl yawned while sitting on the floor of the bus. They finished putting rusty parts near the bus to protect themselves from Dart- if he even comes. The sky was dark, they've been sitting in the bus for quite awhile now.  

"Dustin I don't think Dart is coming back" Cheryl sat up straightly and removed her hand from her jaw "Just be patient. He'll come" Cheryl huffed and looked over at Steve, he kept turning on his lighter, making a small flame come out each time. "So you really fought one of these things?" Max, on the other side of the bus, asked them. Steve nodded his head, "And you're 100% it wasn't a bear?" She asked yet another question "I don't think bears have their faces open up in multiple directions.." Cheryl looked over at Max, her arms over her chest as she waited for the monster.

"mutiple directions? That's impossible" one of her red eyebrows were raised in confusion and interest.  Cheryl brought her knees up to her chin and rested her head on it, she was tired of waiting and was bored of waiting. "why are you even here if you don't believe us?" Dustin suddenly snapped at Max "Just go home" He was pacing in lines.

"Geez, someone's cranky.  Past your bedtime?" Max asked before climbing up the ladder that led up to the top of the bus "Actually, I am past my bedtime." She mumbled.  "that's good. Just show her you don't care." Steve looked over at the pacing boy, he put his hands in his jacket pockets "I don't." Dustin stopped moving, Steve gave him a wink "why are you winking at me, Steve? Stop."

Cheryl brought her head up to look at Steve, She got up from the dirty floor at sat on a chair near him "You're giving him bad advice" She whispered, she didn't want Dustin to hear, that's why she sat near the teen. "No i'm not" Steve disagreed with her "What he did was rude to Max." Steve kept turning on the lighter which caused Cheryl to snatch it from him "hey! Why did you do that for?" he threw his hands up "Because you're getting distracted and you might burn this whole bus down." 

"I'm not that clumsy..." A loud noise was heard from outside the bus, Cheryl jumped as it echoed through the night sky "Shit!" She turned to look through the window, but the fog made it hard to see.  "you see him?" Steve asked Cheryl and Dustin, they both replied with no.

"It's too foggy."  "I've got eyes! Ten o clock! Ten o clock!" Lucas shouted from the top of the bus "oh shit I see it" Cheryl cursed, she saw the ugly, slimy, weird creature. It definitely got bigger from the last time she saw him. "he's not taking the bait. Why is he not taking the bait?" She looked down at the pile of fresh, raw meat, nothing was near it. Dart wasn't hungry?

Steve stopped looking out of the window and stood up, he was walking to the door to go outside "What the hell are you doing?" Cheryl yelled at him "I'm going to see what he's doing." He took out his bat with nails in it "I'm going with" She saw a crowbar on the floor, she grabbed it and held it tight in her hands. "Woah woah, stay in here" Steve tried to stop her from following him, but she wouldn't listen, causing Steve to give up and just let her go outside.

Cheryl stayed close to Steve, they both were scared but they had to see what was going on. "Do you see anything?" Cheryl whispered from behind him "No, not yet." A weird sound was heard "Did you hear that" It came from the old red car, maybe it was Dart. "shhh" He shushed her and slowly walked to the car.

Steve whistled as if he was calling over a dog "come on buddy."  He whistled again "he's not a dog" Cheryl rolled her eyes even though he couldn't see "I know what i'm doing." He twirled the bat in his hands.

Steve made his way to the pile of meat that now was rotten, you could smell it, it was gross. "that's him." In front was a shadow of the monster, on all fours, like an house animal. Cheryl felt her heartbeat speed from a rapid pace, she tried to keep her calm but Dart looked scary, at least to her.

"oh shit" Steve's knuckled gone pale from holding the bat tightly in his hands, when Dart came into view you could see all of his features. "GUYS WATCH OUT!" Lucas yelled loudly "A little busy here!" Steve shouted back at him "THREE O CLOCK! THREE O CLOCK!" Cheryl looked to her side, another Dart... another demogorgon. "oh my god. Oh my god we're dead." She started to panic as another jumped on a car "STEVE ABORT! CHERYL ABORT!" Dustin yelled when he opened the door.

Dart's mouth opened up widly, they all three started to chase Cheryl and Steve. Steve was in front of Cheryl because he jumped on a car "Cheryl come on!" Steve made it to the bus, he was still outside waiting for the blonde. 

While Cheryl was running, another demogorgon made it to her, Cheryl fell on her back and hit her head harshly, her head felt horrible, her vision got blurry and her eyes watered. The demogorgon opened it's mouth, all the bright white teeth showing, a long line of saliva fell down onto her cheek. Her was agaped and breathing through it, she stared at the monster. The demogorgon face started to go closer and close to hers, ready to eat...

Steve ran over to the helpless woman and hit the creature on the side on it's head, making the demogorgon fall off of Cheryl. "Come on!" Steve grabbed her hand and ran with her to the bus, he slammed the door shut and put metal in front of the door, his foot helping it stay up. 

Cheryl was scared, her mind couldn't process what was going on other than she nearly died. If it wasn't for Steve, she wouldn't be breathing. Part of the creature went through the window, everyone ran off of the red chairs and Steve started to repeatedly hit the creature with his bat. 

Cheryl rubbed her head with her hand where she fell on, it was a horrible, fire stinging.  Dustin stopped yelling on his radio when a loud noise came from above the bus, dents forming. The creature was on top of the bus.  "Steve..." Cheryl got his attention, she pointed up at the ceiling of the bus

Max started to scream when she saw it looking down at them "OUT OF THE WAY! OUT OF THE WAY" Steve moved the children away from the ladder, the monster screeched at Steve before looking away, then it randomly hopped off the bus. 

"Where did it go?" Cheryl  asked, there were no more sounds coming from outside "I- I don't think they're here anymore." Steve looked at her before turning his direction to the door, he held his bat near his face, ready to defend himself and the others "what happened to them?" One of them asked "Steve scared them away?" Dustin thought of "no. There's no way... there going somewhere"
