12: 42 AM, NOVEMBER 1984
"Where...Where's Y/n?" Steve asked Dustin, remembering his responsibility of keeping her safe, waking up and regaining his conscious.
"I'm here." She said softly, and smiled. He groaned, trying to rub the bridge of his nose. "Hey buddy, shhh. It's okay, you put up a good fight. He kicked your ass but you put up a good fight. Shh buddy, you're okay." Dustin reassured him, trying to not make him freak out.
"Okay, you're going to keep straight for half a mile, the turn left on mount sinai." Lucas instructed Max, who was driving.
"Woah, what's going on? Oh my god!"
"Just relax, she's driven before."
"Yeah, in a parking lot!"
"That counts!"
"They were going to leave you behind, but I promised you'd be cool, okay? Plus, you're in charge of Y/n and she's cool and has powers and we wanted to bring her." Dustin said over all of Steve's, 'oh my god's.
"Woah, woah, woah what's going on?!" Steve yelled trying to sit up, but Max sped up, making up fall back into his seat.
"Woah, no! Stop the car, slow down!"
"I told you he was going to freak out!"
"Stop the car!!" Steve yelled.
"Everybody shut up! I'm trying to focus!" Max yelled, looking at the road again, still speeding. "Okay! That's mount sinai! Make a left." Lucas shouted. "What?" Max asked. "Make a left!" Lucas screamed.
Max ran into a mail box, then made a hard left. Everyone screaming. She sped up, making it to the farm and pressing he break. "Hello!" Steve yelled. "Incredible." Mike mumbled. "Told you, zoomer." Max said.
Everyone got out of the car, getting their things as Steve yelled, not approving. He got out of the car, and fell into the door. Y/n went over and put his arm around her, making their way to the back and sitting him down as he yelled at Dustin, and Dustin gave him a lecture in return.

As Y/n finished putting on her goggles and her purple bandanna on, covering her mouth and nose. She pulled it down. Looking at Steve and Dustin, bickering. Dustin handed him a bag with a bat, he sighed, taking the backpack in hand. Dustin went back to the other teens and Y/n put on Steve's yellow goggles and red bandanna for him, he made a sad smile.
"I'm sorry Y/n, I know you have no clue in what's going on and Jesus, you probably don't know half the shit we are saying. I'm sorry, I suck at taking care of girls, explain's why Nancy left me for Johnathan." He sighed sarcastically.
"It's okay Steve, I know.. some stuff. You don't suck at taking care of girls, I want to help." She replied with a soft smile, warming Steve's insides and making his heart melt. All he wanted to do was take care of this girl, even though they just met.
"Common love birds!" Dustin yelled, making the other teens snicker. "Love birds?" Y/n said in confusion, not familiar with either words.
"Nothing, nothing! I'll explain later." Steve said, picking up his bag and putting over his shoulder, grabbing Y/n's hand and dragging her to the tunnels, the teens going first, then Steve and finally Y/n.
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's this way." Mike instructed. "You're pretty sure or you're certain?" Dustin questioned. "I'm 100% certain. Just follow me and you'll know." Mike and Dustin yelled at each other.
"Woah, hey, I don't think so. 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 one, let go! Common, a little hustle!" steve yelled at the kids and continued his way through the tunnels with Y/n and the kids close behind. "What is this place?"

"Guys, common keep moving." Steve instructed as everyone was cautious, looking at the unfamiliar place. Dustin stopped, looking up at the moving bump in the ceiling, right above him. "What the hell?" He mumbled, then the bump spit out a bunch of the dust into his mouth.
Dustin screaming and tripping as everyone came to see him, screaming and spiting for another minute and then confirming that he was okay. Going on, for a little long into a huge room like area.
"Alright wheeler, I think we found your hub." Steve said as the group looked around. "Drench it!" He instructed loudly. They covered the area in gasoline fluid, in a hurry. They finished, throwing the lighter into the area, watching it burn, then quickly ran back to the entry into the tunnels. Saving mike from the tentacle that grabs his foot, and going past the demo dog.
As they came closer and closer to the entrance back into the real world. They reached the rope, Max, Lucas, then Mike going up first but the three last teens were too late, the demo dogs have reached them, Y/n quickly held out her hands, quickly lifting up Dustin to safety, leaving her with Steve and a bloody nose.
Steve grabbed onto her waist, holding her close, preparing for the worst as she hugged back. After a few seconds she realized that they were going around them, she tapped Steve, he looked up and laughed, glad they're alive. Once they got to the surface and hugged each other, in relief that each other was alive.

Lost Things
"In this disordered continent, where everyone seeks to be the heroes of their own tales, there are still some rooms for smaller stories to breathe." "Past, present, and future—keep your eyes open, and see where they lead you to." This story follows three housemates’ lives: Carson Calding, Virgil Barion, and John Salore—onto their adventures of finding Carson’s past, Virgil’s present, and John’s future. Despite their clashing backgrounds and circumstances that forced them together, they’re definitely going to find the things they had lost, for sure. Each entire chapter will be updated biweekly. There'll be three smaller parts per each chapter. Note that this story was written to be an interactive one, with polls at the end of each parts deciding on what happens next. Though, the polls for this story won't be available on Royal Road updates. (I also upload this in Arcane Odyssey forum, and it's currently the only place where I open the polls and use the poll results from.)
