The desolate roadside air grew heavy as the Stranger Things crew strategized against Vecna, their voices hushed in the isolation. Suddenly, the crunch of gravel announced approaching bikes. Mike Wheeler’s face drained of color as he recognized the riders: Beverly, Eddie, Bill, Stan, Richie, and Ben. The Losers’ Club from Derry had arrived, their expressions a mix of anger and disappointment. The secret was out. Mike Wheeler was Richie Tozier. As Eddie dismounted, shouting his fake name, Mike turned to face them, his eyes darting anxiously between his Hawkins friends and his Derry past, his nervous laugh failing to mask the impossible truth.
