Chrissy is an excellent student, but she still needs to improve her grades if she wants to go to college. Eddie is desperate to pass; This has to be his final year at Hawkins High. For different reasons, they both agree to the two-week field trip with the Science study group. And for a variety of other reasons and cosmic realignments, Chrissy was the only one who had no objections to sharing a dorm room with Eddie “The Freak” Munson. These are the perfect temperature and pressure conditions for scientific discovery and… love!

Hellcheer Week Day 3: 2nd Chance

'I should be dead' He thought to himself. He wandered around...correction, flew through the Upside Down thanks to his new set of wings. One moment Eddie was dying in Dustin's arms and later woke up to find himself some sort of an abomination. Pale skin, black veins, burning eyes, leathery wings, and Vecna pulling his strings. Forced as his servant. He barely paid attention to what Vecna said, focusing on the broken corpse of Chrissy, propped up like some fucked up trophy.

Eddie was sick of it but what the hell could he do. His spirit was just about broken. Vecna summoned him back to his lair, standing gloating and ordering Eddie to prepare for the invasion. Eddie could only nod his head in subservience, his will broken long ago. He previously tried attacking the monster in the beginning but each time ended with Eddie flung around painfully and horribly tortured. He was about to take off when he spared one last glance at Chrissy. He didn't know what prompted him but walked over to her. Everything was wrong with her: her imploded eyes, dislocated jaw, twisted limbs, and her pale lifeless skin.

Eddie stabbed himself in the hand with his own claws. He spread some of his blood over Chrissy's twisted face in a futile attempt to make her look slightly better. It was a hopeless improvement but at least her skin had a rosier tint. Tears nearly bursting, Eddie flapped his wings to take flight...

COUGH!!!

COUGH!!!

Hoarse violent coughs filled the air. Eddie immediately whirled around and couldn't believe his eyes. She barely moved like a broken animatronic, but moving nonetheless. He rushed over "Chrissy?!" he shouted with a mixture of concern and disbelief. She could only weakly groan. Eddie immediately stabbed himself again and gave her more blood. She violently coughed some more before her limbs slowly realigned and jaw snapped back into place. Her eyes returned but were a dull milky color, dried bloodstains dripped down from her eyes to chin like a screwed up tattoo.

"E-E-Ed-die" Chrissy weakly rasped. Tears soon became waterfalls as Eddie tore away those damned vines holding her to that wretched spire, his will returning in full force. He wasn't gonna fail her again. He was going to save her. He wasn't abandoning her again. He was going free her from hell. He would give her another chance at life. He will make Chrissy Cunningham the happiest girl in the world. Chrissy practically crumbled into his arms as he quickly scooped her up.

A stabbing pain shot through Eddie's head as he nearly fell on his knees. He looked over his shoulder to see a pissed off Vecna with his hand stretched out. "I had known you would do something like this eventually" his voice like grinding gears sounded off "It was always going to end like this, Eddie the freak, Eddie the banished". Eddie tried to standing up but the pain grew stronger with each move. He could hear Chrissy's labored breathing quickening with panic. "Futilely returning to a home that wishes you dead, saving a girl beyond repair. You were always going to end up alone." Eddie could only grit his teeth. He glanced at Chrissy. He could only see panic and fear in her clouded eyes. He wouldn't let her be afraid again. He will never fail her again!

With one last look of defiance and hate towards the abomination, Eddie summoned a swarm of demobats towards Vecna. Eddie took off, carrying Chrissy, smashing straight through the window of the Creel House attic. Eddie could hear Vecna roaring in rage but couldn't care less.

As he soared towards the megagate, Eddie look towards Chrissy, clinging to him a lifeline. Her face was smeared with tears and bloodstains. He smile towards her. "Don't worry, Chrissy. We're going home". He knew Vecna would strike back with a vengeance. Eddie had to find the others and finally deal with Vecna. For now, he felt atoned.

A super late post for Day 3. Heavily inspired by several Hellcheer artpieces. Also my hope for Season 5. They deserve and must get that happy ending.

Here is my little contribution to @hellcheerweek 😊🩸

Day 7 : Serial Killers - 26.10.2024

I imagine them going on a rampage and killing Chrissy's parents after taking care of Jason and his crew~

Hellcheerweek  2024 day 10: Rivals

@hellcheerweek

Eddie and Chrissy grew up together. Coincidentally, their love blossomed at the same time their mutant powers began to manifest. Soon the problems with discrimination against mutants started and they have different opinions on how to face it. While Chrissy believed in peaceful coexistence, joining the Xavier Institute, Eddie was more radical towards the mutant cause and joins the Brotherhood of Mutants. Now on opposite sides of the battlefield, they will have to deal with their battles and their love for each other.

You're going to tell him our secret today, aren't you? Eddie asked as he tried to help with the mess he'd made of her blonde hair, gently tucking a strand behind her ear.

I will, but are you sure? She seemed to hesitate for a second.

Baby, look at me. Eddie said, touching her chin and lifting it until their eyes met. Only if you're still as determined as you were yesterday. If you want to back out, just say so, it's fine with me.

No, it's about time. Chrissy said assertively, sealing her lips on Eddie's in confirmation. He smiled slightly at the corners of his mouth, he could still taste himself in the kiss.

Go, my sweet girl. I'll be right behind you. Tell your future ex-boyfriend. I want him to know that it's me you've been secretly fucking all this time.

“I think you should give it a try, it will be good for you on many levels.” That’s what Eddie and Chrissy heard from their respective therapists and ended up enrolling in a drama school. He would have a way to stay off drugs by doing something relatively familiar, after all, he was already acting in both music performances and as a D&D master. Chrissy would practice ways of expressing herself and thus being able to purge old traumas. Now they are about to stage a theatrical version of Scream with Eddie as Ghostface, of course. Throughout the classes and rehearsals, their friendship and also their love grows, but there is an obstacle: Chrissy is married to Jason Carver.
