After Vecna and the portals were opened in Hawkins, more than half of the people had left the small town, while the party and the adults stayed, it was the only way, they needed to solve this. Everyone knew very well that Vecna had not died, and now with four kilometer-long portals to the Upside Down opened, unknown monsters appear, It was as if the Upside Down was slowly turning into their world.

They were all planning plans on how to stop Vecna, close the portals and rebuild everything he destroyed, so many of them went on missions in groups to execute a plan, this time it was the original four, they were in a forest when suddenly... Will hears that clock sound. THE clock sound. the boy feels a chill on the back of his neck and looks back...he had definitely been caught by Vecna, who is now in his head, and Byers' body was there, his eyes rolled back in his head. He needed to deny it, he needed to get out. Mike, Dustin and Lucas try to wake Will. Wheeler grabs the Walkman in desperation, putting it in Will's ears..."Boys don't cry - The Cure"

Mike tries to talk to Will, to encourage him, because now he knows Will is listening to him...to confess.
