Something or someone had disturbed the place where she was trapped in. Chrissy wasn’t sure how much time had gone by, since it all resembled to be the same day. The only way she could tell a day had gone by was due in part by the strange events, that would surely label her insane if she ever made it out of there alive to tell the tale. It was nothing like the night terrors that she suffered as a child — this was worse. Way worse. Instead, it was the nightmares of what she currently experienced on an endless loop.
This time, it was different. Whatever or whoever disturbed the horrors around her, brought it all to an abrupt near silence. Almost as though, it all had just suddenly died, which was too good to be true in a place like this. Especially when the lightning still struck with static like thunder, illuminating everything in crimson. No more voice, or entity to follow her wherever she went, to mock her for the attempts to escape.
She had been aimlessly walking for some time, closing in at Forest Hills trailer park, or at least, what was supposed to be the trailer park. The head cheerleader could only image that the way it looked now, was most likely how society pictured trailer parks. She wasn’t anything like society. And though she wasn’t aware that above her was the real Hawkins and the real trailer park where she had unknowingly vanished, it still remained to be the only place she ever felt at ease.
Upon arrival, a chill went through her within that moment, causing her to stop by the sight in front of her. Bat looking creatures, bits and pieces of them scattered about and further up ahead… it looked like a graveyard for them. What she didn’t know, was the body that was once on the very ground with them was no longer there. Maybe I should go back… she thought to herself. Chrissy learned the hard way that a small gasp could get her in trouble, so inner monologues was the only way to keep herself going and not completely lose her mind.
Eventually, with quiet breathing exercises to keep herself from getting sick or panicking at how much death was around her, she made it to the very dirt road where Eddie’s trailer was supposed to be. Supposed because it looked nothing like what she remembered it looking like. There were makeshift barricades around the whole area, but she managed to get in without any struggle. Good thing too, because just at that moment, the lightning started up again along with the shrill screeching of the bats that she thought were dead. The poor girl not knowing that it was hardly a good thing to be hiding in the very place where a certain someone was also hiding away with her.
