Summary
Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.
Having sold their house in Hawkins a year prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.
Mike had kindly offered up their place during Nancy’s graduation dinner.

Summary
“My name is North,” the androids snarls, “and I don’t need help from a fucking human.”
Everyone has their demons - they just deal with them in different ways. FBI agent Anne Shapiro has been hunting her daughter's killer for ten years; she certainly didn't expect to find one of New Jericho's leaders in a basement about to be sold into a sex trafficking ring. The last thing Shapiro wants is an angry android interfering with her case, especially when it brings the DPD human-android team of Lieutenant Anderson and Detective RK800 into her life.
The only thing North hates more than humans is owing a human something. But if she wants to bring the ring that's now targeting humans and androids down, then she has no choice but to grudgingly cooperate with the FBI agent who rescued her. Now, if only Shapiro would stop making it so difficult to resent her...
Or; North gets the mother figure she absolutely fucking deserves.

Summary
What would happen if Will Byers was never found during the events of Stranger Things season 1? How would he survive the upside down? How would the people of Hawkins react?
Will breathed in a ragged breath. Black smoke poured from his mouth as he tore himself free from the wall. He collapsed forward, coughing and gasping on the cold, moist floor.
His heart pounded in his ears as he shakily scrambled to his feet. Eyes darting around the abyss, he started to run. And he ran, and ran, and ran.
His feet pounded on the ground when suddenly he found himself on a familiar path. Finally, something familiar. Will sprinted through the woods, as a feeling of hope filtered its way through the panic. He was getting there, he was gonna be safe, it was finally within reach.
Castle Byers.
The pain in his chest and legs screamed at him to rest, but he couldn't risk stopping. He pushed himself further, calves aching with each step. Suddenly, a loud screech echoed through the air from somewhere up ahead.
Will skidded to a stop as the monster moved on the path ahead. It was in the way, standing between him and safety.- Language:

Summary
“Holy shit!” Will exclaimed, “I’ve been here for almost four years.” Nancy and Jonathan were taken aback.
Jonathan looked the most surprised by Will’s time in the Upside Down. They slowly shifted into silence before Jonathan broke it with quiet tears and one single word:
“Will?”
-
Will has been surviving in the Upside Down for four years with the help of Henry Creel. He eventually reunites with the people he loved, but they are now on opposite sides of a war.

Summary
When Will Byers got stuck in the Upside Down, it was never due to an accident. Surrounded by humans, all arguing about meaningless issues only to claim they were still close, Will never could fit in. So when he meets a mysterious creature, he does the only rational thing someone could do. He follows it.
AKA the AU nobody asked for where Will Byers willingly goes into the Upside Down and doesn't want to leave.
