Chapter 13

Large gulps of air we're heard in the night, as well as clanging noises, of metal against metal, fist against metal, basically everything was getting broke.

Steve was doing pretty good the first few minutes untill he punched a bus and collapsed onto the ground and stared up into the night sky.

"I'm super drunk right now and all out of therapist juice, so all I have is flying, you wanna fly bud?" Jeremiah was seen sitting on the hood of Steve's car, still drinking out of a red solo cup.

"Nah, I think I'll just go home" the empty tone in Steve's words would have concerned Jeremiah if they didn't sound like gibberish to his ears.

"Well umm.... do that Steve I'm gonna fly home."

Jeremiah slowly floats up into the sky, wobbling as he does and shoots off into the night.

"Ah fuck" a squawk was heard from the eagle that Jeremiah hit trying to fly back to his house and Steve's stony expression dropped for a moment as a smile came through.

"Fucking dick head, always making me laugh when I need to be sad"

---------------

Jane was seen reading in her room when she got a very confusing reading om her brothers mind. It was scrambled and tired, she was also not getting any beacons back. [Beacon being a signal that both send to each other regularly to see if one another is safe]

"Hop, something is wrong with brother" Jim immediately springs out of his lazy boy and runs over to the girl.

"What happened Jane?"

"His beacons, there jumbled and hard to read. Its as if they've been slowed down"

Jim narrows his eyes at the description, putting down his shot gun.

At that moment a loud crash is heard outside of the house.

Hopper pulls the girl behind him and slowly walks out of the cabin to see nothing out of the ordinary. His eyes narrowed in suspicion as he saw the sticks and leaves were all cracked as if something had landed on them.

Jeremiah was hiding in a tree, cold sweat dropping down his silver painted back, his poor terminator out fit. As soon as he heard Hopper talking he had flew right back up into the sky.

"Hm I wonder what Jeremiah is doing." The boy in question starts to sweat even more at the question. The sister, Hopper combo go back inside while Jeremiah gets comfy.

"I miss the Demogorgans"

----------------------

The next day an annoyed Hopper is seen looking at a sleeping Jeremiah in a tree.

"Why..You know what, I don't wanna know" Hopper shook his head while sipping his coffee

"Teenagers"

-------------------

Jeremiah woke up with an absolute terrible headache and a scolding from Jane.

"What was wrong with you, your beacons were all scrambled and slow and you didn't come home and"

"Jane, I get you love me and all but this is going into mom territories" Jane looks up at her brother flicks him telepathically.

"Ouch"

"I'm not being a mom, we fight alternate dimension monsters every week, I deserve to be a little scared when you don't respond" Jeremiah sighed and sat down on the couch. Pulling Jane into a bear hug which she tried to fight ay first.

"I'm sorry Jane, I'll be more careful next time, I shouldn't have worried you like that" Jane's scowl slowly fades way into a smile as she reciprocated the hug.

It was a really nice moment untill Jeremiah looked at the clock.

"Holy shit its 10 o'clock" Jeremiah panicked as he ran into his room.

Jane's head tilted, a dangerous smile found its way on her lips.

For some reason Jeremiah felt chills go down his back, must have been the water he put in his hair.

He sprinted out of the door and found his sister still sitting there with a smile on her face.

".... Why are you still here at this time of day?" The chills were now all along the body of are protagonist.

"I just missed you so much I couldn't go to school"

"I...Uhhh" Jeremiah's mouth was wide open as he stared at his little sister.

"4 waffles and 2 hershey bars"

"6 waffles and 4 hershey bars"

Jeremiah grabbed his heart in a dramatic fashion.

"Oh, oh god I think im having a heart attack, where is my sweet little sister" Jane's eyes narrowed but the smile stayed the same.

"When you decided to make me worry because you were out drinking with your freinds" Jeremiah immediately clapped his hands.

"Alrighty than, 8 waffles, 6 hershey bars and flying lessons"

"deal" Jane's smile turned into a real one while Jeremiah sat in the corner drawing a circle with his finger.

"Where has my precious Jane gone?"

--------------------

Jeremiah landed at school 3 in a half hours late and with 2 dollars in his pocket. He was not having a great day.

He walked into the main office, waved to the nice lady, got a pass and left.

He walked into his chemistry class and sat down ready to be bored out of his mind untill Robin tapped his shoulder.

"Hey, whats wrong with Steve, he's all mopey today"

Jeremiah's eyes widen and he proceeds to face palm.

"Dammit I completely forgot about that"

Robin looks at the boy with confusion written on her face.

"So... are we gonna answer my question or not?"

Jeremiah turned around to Robin and made an 0 gesture with his lips.

"Oh I forgot you were there"

"Shut up and answer the damn question doofus" Jeremiah raised an eyebrow at the name but Robin kept on waving at him to tell her.

"Well last night we went to a party, I was super drunk but I'm pretty sure Nancy like broke up with him or something" Jeremiah goes into a thinking position after speaking while Robin just stares at the boy.

"Okay so, Steve got broken up with, and you got super drunk. Sounds like a party to me" Jeremiah looks over at the girl and flips her off.

-----------------

Jeremiah runs outside to see Nancy sitting with Johnathan on his car and Steve knowhere to be found.

He looks at the duo with confusion and walks over.

"So did you and Steve make up or what?" Nancy turns around to the boy lighting quick with Johnathan doing the same.

Jeremiah narrows his eyes 'Suspicious'

"No, we didn't" Nancy immediately responded

"Well, uh do you know where he is?" Jeremiah eyes narrow more

"No I don't" Jeremiah tilts his head at Nancy's curt and cold responses but just sruggs it of and walks towards the middle school where his sister should be realesed soon.

He waits outside while watching the clouds until he curses.

"Dammit this is when I miss mobile phones, I could just tell what the time is, why couldn't I have been stuck in a deselet place with a sun, I definitely could have picked up telling time like that" Jeremiah keeps on being annoyed at his sisters lateness.

He watches the children. Leave for the day with an annoyed look on his face.

"If that brat is making me wait on purpose I am going to teach her how to fly, and not how to land"

He keeps on muttering curses untill, something reaches his senses. His eyes widen at what he just felt.

"The Mind Flayer? How the hell did it get out!" He sprinted out to the field of the middle school to see Will standing in the grassy pasture, his mom just getting out there as well. Jeremiah sprints over to Will as fast as he can and opens up his mind.

"I'm not afraid of you" screamed the boy as soon as Jeremiah had reached into the mindscape.

The boy turned around to see a 15 story shadow monster and a little 13 year old boy staring at one another.

A shadow tendril reached for the boy but Jeremiah quickly pulled him into his arms with his powers and screamed using almost all of his powers to get him and the boy out of there.

Both boys come back to consciousness to see Joyce and all the kids, including 1 red head Jeremiah had never seen before, staring at the 2, with Jane just about to touch Wills head.

Jeremiah collapsed onto his back while Will falls onto the ground in terror.

Jeremiah looked at the boy and shook his head.

"So.... how's everyone's day been?" no one responded to the attempt at lightening the mood
