The water rippled beneath the rowboat as tension coiled in the air. Steve had been pulled under, vanishing into the eerie black depths of the pond—the gateway to the Upside Down. Without a second thought, Nancy jumped after him, and you didn’t hesitate to follow her, plunging into the icy water side by side.
As you both sank, the faint echo of your names, Nancy’s, and even your own, floated up from the shadows, distant and distorted. The panic, the fear—it was real, but so was the bond between you and Nancy. Then, almost simultaneously, Robin dove in, her silhouette cutting through the water, followed by Eddie, his presence a strange comfort amidst the chaos.
The dive wasn’t just about saving Steve; it was about facing the unknown together, navigating the darkness, and trusting each other when every instinct screamed to flee.
