Gray Strangers

New beginnings

Joyce Byers P.o.v : "hey el you almost finished unpacking? , i know this is a new place away from all your other friends but it's a fresh start for all of us away from all the bad things ok? i..." *i couldn't bring myself to finish my sentence but i know even hopper would have had a hard time trying to get her to adjust to a new life without her friends but i also know she missed hopper dearly what else could i do for her , maybe a walk around the neighborhood would help we could all introduce ourselves to our new neighbors make a good first impression i think new friends is what we all needed.* "ok guys come on stop what your doing and come with me where going to say hi to all our new neighbors! * we all stop unpacking boxes and head out the first house we go to was the one across the street it was a beautiful house and big it must have been at least on  2,319 sq ft  we walked up to the door and knocked we waited for about 10 minutes and a young boy answered the door. " can i help you ?" *he asked us looking us up and down giving us a once over which rubbed me the wrong way but i kept my composer i didn't want to make a bad first impression on this kid.*" umm.. well were just going to go around and introduce ourselves to our neighbors and because your house was right across the street we thought we should come to your house first", " is that so well i dont talk to strangers so your wasting your time here i'll give you one of two options you can go to another house or go home but leave me alone." *he looked like he was about to close the door on us but he stopped half way and looked straight at el*. "oh you girl you have something in your leg as a matter of fact it's spread throughout your entire leg i would suggest getting it taken out but no normal person can take it out."

El P.o.v:  "what do you mean i took out myself and ...and lost my powers in the process and will doesn't feel his presence anymore so i know that he's gone" *was this kid trying to mess with my head trying to make me second guess myself i saw it when i took it out i tossed it aside and the one who killed it was... was hopper he was always there to help me and always there to help make the tough choice's but now i have to do that on my own i can't keep depending on everyone for help*, ok so say it was still there but will couldn't feel it does that mean will's ability to sense him is gone then? or is he able to just mask himself now ...or is it something else entirely then that i need to know" "fine come inside and i'll take a look at your leg  because its not only spread throughout your leg it's attached to the bone itself " *i walk inside and he stops me at the door i look around for a moment and noticed he had no shoe's on which im guess he wanted me to take my shoe's off, so i proceeded to take my shoe's off and he directed me over to the couch and propped my leg up on the coffee table.* "how do you plan on getting it out? you said yourself normal people wouldn't be able to get it out so what make's you think you can get it out?" *he just ignored me and walked away he disappeared around a corner and came back with a knife he set it down on the table and the went into what i assume is the bathroom mostly because i can see the sink from here, he came back with a first aid kit*  "what do plan to do with all that?" " im going to cut your leg open , the first aid kit is so i can sew your leg closed again unless you want to bleed out" *he picked up the knife and proceeded to cut my leg open and then started the long process of getting it out he let his bangs fall in his face before starting i don't know why he needed to do that though maybe some sort of process he has  i felt a strange presence about him like the air had completely changed  and then  i started screaming out in pain, i could here Mrs.Byers banging on the door asking what was going on in here he ignored her and continued i could hear the bone cracking my screams becoming louder, but i could finally see it ... it was definitely big i needed one more big pull and he'd have it out*  "one more pull you ready?" *he asked me my face was distorted with pain but i gave him a nod so he proceeded and with the last pull it went flying onto his floor he quickly got up and stomped on it making sure it was dead then he walked back over to me so he could stitch me up another painful process if you don't have any sedatives or pain killers, he finished stitching me up". "stay put your not aloud to move with a broken leg" *sigh*  he walked over to the door and opened it " im  finished but you can't have here back not yet her leg is broken as i said it would be it will take a while for it to heal so until then she will be staying with me i will not take no for an answer have a good day." *he closed the door on them and walked into his bed room he was probably looking up exactly how long it took for a broken leg to heal my guess is he didn't like the results he got because i know for a face it takes a broken leg  6-8 weeks to heal so i would be staying with him for 6-8 weeks . i could tell by the look on his face when he came out of his room he didn't like that idea very much.*
