-Y/N's pov-

"It was here. Right here." Max said as we all stood looking at the wall

"A grandfather clock?" Nancy asked

"It was so real. And then, when I got closer, suddenly I just...I woke up." Max explained

"It was like she was in a trance or something. Exactly what Eddie said happened to Chrissy." Dustin added

"Exactly what happened to Fred." I turned to face the group from next to max

"That's not even the bad part." Max said before leading us back to Kelley's office

"Fred and Chrissy, they both came to Miss Kelley for help. They both were having headaches, bad headaches that wouldn't go away. And then the nightmares. Trouble sleeping. They'd wake up in a cold sweat. And then they started seeing things. Bad things. From their past. The visions kept on getting worse and worse until eventually everything ended." Max explained as she pointed to papers

"Veccna's curse." Robin looked up from her seat

I muttered something under my breath in thought "The connection here is trauma. Fred with the car crash." I scanned over Chrissy's file "Chrissy with an eating disorder, bad parents. And max with a dead brother." I said before looking up

"Chrissy's headaches started a week ago. Fred's six days ago. I've been having them for five days. I don't know how long I have. All I know is that, for Fred and Chrissy, they both died less than 24 hours after their first vision. And I just saw that goddamn clock, so..looks like I'm gonna die tomorrow." Max said as she teared up. I opened my mouth to say something but got cut off by a distant noise. We all turned to look

"Stay here." Steve said

"No, if you get to go kick some ass I wanna help." I said running in front of him as he grabbed a lamp I rolled my eyes and opened the door. We walked down the hall to hear more noise. A figure ran down the hall, everyone screamed. I punched Lucas square in the face.

"Ow! It's me!" Lucas yelled

"Lucas?" Max called

"Its me."

"I know." I crossed my arms

"Jesus, what's wrong with you sinclair?" Steve yelled

"I'm sorry." he sighed trying to catch his breath

"I could've taken you out with this lamp!" Steve yelled again

"I doubt that." I smiled

"Y/N if you knew it was me, why punch?" Lucas asked grabbing his nose

"For thinking Eddie killed Chrissy." I shrugged

"I was biking for eight miles. Give me one second." Lucas gasped for air "We've got a code red."

"What?" Steve asked

"Dustin. I've been with Jason, Patrick, and Amdy, and they've gone totally off the rails. They're trying to capture Eddie, and they think you know where he is. You're in terrible danger." Lucas explained quickly

"Alright, yeah that definitely sucks but we've got bigger problems than Jason right now." Dustin nodded before looking at Max

We all sat around in my basement waiting for Nancy and Robin.

"Okay, uh be honest. Uh, you guys understand any of this?" Steve asked

"No." Lucas said

"Pretty straightforward." Dustin replied

"Oh, straightforward, really?" Steve looked at him as he paced
