    Summary

    Three months after a viral outbreak transforms the world into a graveyard of abandoned cities and wandering Hollows, Steve Harrington survives alone—until a chance encounter in a crumbling alley changes everything. Eddie Munson, wild-haired and wielding twin blades like he was born for the apocalypse, saves Steve's life and offers him something he'd almost forgotten existed: hope.

    A story about finding love in the ruins, building home from nothing, and learning that survival means more than just staying alive.

    Summary

    Steve Harrington dreamed of having six kids someday. Life gave him six cats instead.
    Eddie Munson just wanted some extra cash. Neither of them got what they asked for…but maybe that’s not too bad.

    "oh! almost forgot, read this! It's very important and will save your life.Trust me."
    Eddie looked down, Robin handed him a booklet.
    Not just a piece of paper with the most important informations, no
    A fully laminated, color-coded booklet.
    On the front, in neat handwriting:

    STEVE'S HOUSE CAT MANUAL
    Version 6.0

    There were lists.
    There were doodles.
    There was a color-coded digestion chart.
    Oh my god, Eddie thought. He’s a control freak.
    Robin clapped once. “Great! "Good luck!”
    The door slammed shut behind her.
    Eddie stood there.
    Six cats stared back.

    Or: Eddie becomes the cat sitter for Steve’s six little Nuggets and chaos, doodles, and feelings follow

    Summary

    They arrive when the fire is mostly quenched. Back at home, from the television set, that mall had been consumed already. And they had sat, phone clutched between their joined hands, waited and waited for the dial tone to switch to their little boy’s voice. There was nothing.

    ...

    Behind a wilting strip of ash-dusted caution tape, they see him.

    Beatrice clutches to her husband’s, Daniel Harrington’s, arm tight. “Steven!” she chokes out around a sharp, too short intake of breath. Without thinking, without question, she moves one foot in front of the other. Lets her fingernails drag along Daniel’s robed arm, harsh and quick. However, right at the edge of the tape, a man in pale blue stops her.

    Summary

    The gate is closing.

    Dustin lands on the floor of the real-world Munson trailer, managing not to injure anything else this time, but he hardly notices as he sees the rift that has also split the world on this side begin mending itself. The roof and side of the trailer reform, sealing together as the vines and the very crack itself disappears. Looking back up, all Dustin can do is watch as the opening grows smaller and smaller.

    "Steve!" he calls, helpless. "No, no, no, no!"

    "It's okay!" Steve shouts back to him, even though Dustin knows that it isn't. "We'll find another way out! Get to Nancy and Robin!"

    And the vines retreat into the ceiling as the gate seals itself, slicing the last of the hanging sheet in half and leaving almost no trace that a giant portal to another world was ever there at all.

     

    *Or, Steve goes back for Dustin after everything and gets trapped in the Upside Down, alone with Eddie. But that is only the beginning.

    This story is from Robin, Dustin, Steve, and Eddie's POVs, as they all deal with what happens now.
