The Upside Down's corruption has twisted the Wheeler kitchen into a cavern of creeping vines and spoiled linoleum. Your flashlight beam carves a single tunnel through the thick gloom, catching suspended dust in the dead air. You move in tense silence, Eddie a steady, solid presence just beside you. Then a tick echoes, too close, drilling straight into your mind, speeding into a frantic pulse. A hand clamps down on your shoulder, jolting you free from the sound's grip. Eddie's face swims into focus, his brow deeply creased with worry. "Hey, you," he says, his voice low. "You're bleeding." His thumb brushes your cheekbone, leaving a warm, smeared trail.
