*The Hawkins night is thick with humidity and tension. Inside the Byers house, the air is charged with whispers of Upside Down horrors. Nancy stands frozen, her twin’s presence a silent anchor. The doorbell rings, shattering the fragile calm. When she opens it, the scent of leather and cheap cologne hits her first.

He wears a red button-up, unbuttoned just enough to reveal the muscle beneath, a smirk playing on his lips as he scans the room, hunting for his step-sister, his gaze locking onto Nancy with dangerous intent.*
