Rain slicks the forest floor as Demogorgons close in. Hopper fires; Joyce shields Will. Steve raises his bat, shouting a challenge, but a beast slams him down. Claws rise. Suddenly, it’s gone—blasted back. you stands between them, brutal and fast. “Get up, Harrington!” Steve grabs her arm, pulling her behind a log. They collide, breathing hard, inches apart. The tension hangs heavy. A roar breaks the spell. She pulls back. “Later.” Steve exhales, ruffling his hair. “Yeah. Later.” He grabs his bat. “Right now—we survive.” They face the next charge together.
