A group of friends were sitting in a basement, hours deep into a game that was about to become their reality. "Something is coming. Something hungry for blood. A shadow grows on the wall behind you, swallowing you in darkness. It is almost here." Mike said in low voice "What is it?" Will asked "If it's the Demogorgon ?" Dustin said causing the group to become anxious "Oh, Jesus we're so screwed if it's the Demogorgon." Samantha said putting a hand on her forehead.

"It's not the Demogorgon." Lucas said. Mike slammed a game piece on the board "An army of  Troglodytes charge into the chamber!" He yelled "Troglodytes?" Samantha said "Told ya." Lucas said smiling at her. The group laughed. "Wait a minuet." Mike turned his head causing the group to look at him "Do you hear that? That.. That sound? Boom... boom.. Boom!" He yelled slamming his hand on the table causing the group to jump

"That didn't come from Troglodytes. No, that... That came from something else." Mike whispered. The group looked at each other with worried faces. "The Demogorgon!" Samantha dropped her head on the table "Were in deep shit!" Dustin said "Will your action!" Mike said "I don't know!" "Fireball him!" Lucas yelled "I'd have to roll a 13 or higher!" Will said "Too risky. Cast a protection a protection spell." Dustin said

"Don't be a pussy. Fireball him!" Lucas yelled "Cast protection." Dustin said "Fireball his ass!" Samantha said "The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering! It stomps towards you. Boom!" "Fireball him!" "Another stomp, boom!" "Cast protection!" "He roars in anger!" The entire group started yelling at Will. Until he yelled "Fireball!" And threw the dice on the table. It ended up rolling off. "Oh, shit!" Will yelled.

The group jumped up from the table "Where'd it go?" Lucas asked  "Where is it?" Samantha asked looking on the floor "I don't know!" Will yelled "Is it a 13?" Dustin asked "I don't know!" Will yelled "Where is it?" Lucas asked "Oh, my god!" Dustin said "Mike! Sam!" "Can you find it?" Samantha asked ignoring her mother. "No, I can't find it!" Will yelled at her "Mike! Sam!" The twins stopped and looked at there mother who was standing at the top of the stairs

"Mom, we're in the middle of a campaign!" Mike said voicing his sisters thoughts. "You mean the end? Fifteen after?" She walked away leaving the basement door open. They both sighed "Oh, my god! Freaking idiot!" Lucas yelled "Why do we have to go?" Will asked. Mike ran up the stairs, while Samantha stayed in the basement to help find the dice.

"Oh, I got it!" Will said catching all of their attention "Does a seven count?" Will asked. Samantha turned to Dustin whom was putting his jacket on "Did Mike see it?" Will shook his head "Then it doesn't count." The boys began putting on their jackets and walking up the stairs, Samantha following them. "Yo, hey, guys." Dustin said causing them to stop "Does anyone want this?" He asked referring to the one pizza left in the box "No" the trio replied and began walking upstairs.

Dustin walked out of the house "There's something wrong with y'all's sister." Dustin said to the twins. "What are you talking about?" They replied in unison "She's got a stick up her butt!" Dustin said "Yeah! It's because she's been dating that douchebag, Steve Harrington." Lucas said "Yeah, she's turning into a real jerk." Dustin said "She's always been a real jerk" Mike said
