"This is Gold Leader, and this is a code red! I repeat this is a fucking code red!" Dustin yelled into his walkie-talkie as he passed back and forth on top of the elevator. "Does anyone copy? There are children down here! We are trapped under Starcourt Mall. The Red Army has infiltrated Hawkins. If we are found, they will torture, and kill us!" Steve suddenly pops his head out, yelling for Dustin to stop using the walkie-talkie. "Come on, the mall just opened."

"Okay, and how is that going to help us?"

"Somebody could be in range, Steve!"

"Oh, what, do you think Petey, the mall cop, is going to just repel down here and save the fucking day?" Dustin groans and shakes his head as Steve climbs on top of the roof as well.

"Alright, why are you such cranky pants? I mean, you got the spend the night with Robin!" Dustin says as he wiggles his eyes slightly. Steve looks at him wide-eyed and quickly shushes him.

"Jesus christ Dustin, will you please give up on that creepy ass dream of yours."

"Yeah, well, I heard you two talking all fucking night long."

"Yeah, we were trying to figure out how to open the door, while you and Erica were sleeping. I mean, after eight hours we're not fucking anywhere." Steve stops talking as he walks towards the corner of the elevator, facing away from Dustin. "So yeah Dustin, I'm feeling a tad cranky."

Dustin's face begins to scrunch in disgust as he hears Steve unzip his pants. "What are you doing?" Steve turns his head, looking confused.

"What the hell does it look like I'm doing? I'm taking a leak, now look away. Look away!"

Robin and Eddie both look up from the control panel as they hear something hitting the wall. They look and realize Steve was peeing onto the wall.

Eddie immediately gags and looks away as Robin begins to shout at Steve. "Can you please redirect your stream please!" Robin groans in disgust as she turns away. Suddenly Eddie and she hear metal being banging against metal.

Both of them whip their heads around, Erica was banging the container that contained the green substance onto a metal barrel. Robin quickly runs towards her, ripping the container from Erica's hands. "Hey, what are you doing? We don't even know what this shit is!" Robins says loudly. Eddie sets his hand onto his chest, letting out a heavy breath from his mouth.

"Yeah, which means it could be useful." Erica snaps back, placing her hands onto her hips.

"How the hell could that be useful to us?" Eddie questions, running a hand through his hair.

Erica eyes him, she was growing more annoyed every second. She wanted out of the elevator, she needed out of it. "You know, we can survive without food for a very long time, but if the human body doesn't get water, it will die."

"Yeah, well that's not fucking water!" Eddie retorts back. Trying his best to ignore Lucas's younger sister.

"Well, it's a liquid, and if comes down to it, where I need to drink that shit or dying of thirst. I drink it." Robin scoffs while rolling her eyes.
