Summary
Takes place during the season 5 finale when they get out of the Upside Down but then is a massive AU from there.
Around him the world started to collapse. Steve tried to move but found himself grounded to the spot. Had Venca not died? Was he now trapped in some freakish mind maze? Frantically Steve looked around for the rest of their team. They were all desperately trying to get to each other, Hopper was yelling at El to run. Dustin was reaching for Steve but was stuck fast too. Steve cried out to his best friend but it made no difference.
“EL!” Mike’s scream echoed strangely in the mist world. All eyes once again landed on El. Her serene face was confused as she watched the world around them all rapidly fade.
“Mike?” Her voice was soft. She reached out an arm towards him.
The floor vanished from their feet and Steve was suddenly plummeting into nothing. Darkness swallowed his vision and silence dominated his ears. He couldn’t even hear his own scream of terror.

Summary
Mike Wheeler never stopped loving Eleven. He never stopped carrying the guilt of what he couldn’t save. When his nearly finished book refuses to let one character go missing, Mike realises the truth: you can’t write your way around grief.
A trip to Iceland, once a promise whispered between them on a rooftop, becomes something more than travel. It’s a pilgrimage. A love letter. A chance to say all the words he never got to say.
Amid waterfalls, northern lights, and memories that refuse to stay buried, Mike must decide whether love is something you move on from…or something that asks you to follow it, even into the unknown.

Until the day she's found, by people who bring a message - a message that her friends and Hawkins is once again in danger. Forced with a decision, her freedom or saving what she cares about the most. However, all is not as it seems. Soon, El finds herself once again battling a familiar threat.
