Robert and his friend sat down and were thinking about many causes by which the compass may be manipulated. But even thinking for about 15 minutes they couldn't get anything except some weird stories from Dustin.
"There is no point in thinking about this, let's follow the compass and look at what attracts them. maybe it's a magnetic minefield" Mike said.
"Stupid!! Magnetic fields are rare, and even if any new magnetic field came out of the ground, there must be some movement in the Earth's crust." Lucas retorted.Just when Mike and Lucas were about to argue Robert stopped them and said "There is no need to fight. Let's follow Mike's suggestion and walk in the direction of the pointed needle"
Mike and Lucas looked at each other and snorted to show their annoyance. All of them began to walk, but it wasn't after 10 minutes they had to stop in front of an iron fence."Why is there a fence here?" Dustin asked in confusion. Robert looked at the fence with a deep look and said "Let's walk along the fence and go to the other side"
Mike and others didn't object and began to walk. But just after a turn around the fence corner the direction of the compass turned towards something inside the fence.
Robert and the others didn't stop but continued until they completed a circle around Hawkins National Laboratory. "Let go" Robert looked coldly at the building and turned around.
"Eh? Why leave?" Lucas asked in confusion. "Let's get out of here first then I will tell you," Robert said and walked, Mike and others looked at each other and followed Robert.
After walking for about 15 minutes, Robert opened his mouth and asked "Do you remember the night when we were attacked by Demogorgan?" Still confused about Robert asking such a question, Mike and others nodded. He continued "So you remember we saw a black matter spread on the tree before Demogorgan came out of it?"
"So... you think that black matter is causing malfunction of our compasses?" Dustin quickly grabs a major clue. "Yes, you are right Dustin. Really why don't you two guys try to read some books, to make your brain work faster?" Robert gave a thumbs-up to Dustin while looking down on Mike and Lucas."Who you are look down on?" Lucas asked angrily. "Yeah, we are also smart but tell us about what you found out?" Mike's focus was on Will's rescue so he ignored Robert's words.
"According to what Eve said Will is in upside down world. Which seem to be an alternate dimension same as our, so there has to be a gate where these two world meet each other" Rober said with confidence.
"And you think that black matter is a gate which joins two world" Mike said. "Yes and I am sure of this" Robert said with confidence.
"And I think in Hawkins National Laboratory, there is also a gate but much bigger in size and has a stronger connection to both the worlds" Robert said. "How can you say this all things with confidence, Robert?" Dustin asked with furrowed eyebrows.
"Okay, let me give a lecture. First, for a gate to connect two world or dimension needs to have huge amount of energy. Without this energy the gate will collapse and the two world be separated from each other. And human cannot make tools which can be use to stabilize this amount of energy, the only way to have such huge energy is by dropping a nuke in Hawkins"
Robert stop for a few seconds to let this information sink in their head and continued "Electricity cannot give such huge energy for the gate to be stable. So their has to be some higher quality energy use to maintain the gate. So this were our compass malfunction come in. You all know that compass works on the magnetic fields of Earth.
And this magnetic fields are nothing electromagnetic energy, which is one of the four fundamental forces of nature." Robert let them understand what he wants to say. Dustin looked at him with bright eyes and said "So you mean that government building has a gate inside it!"
Mike and Lucas were shock to heard his words but seeing Robert nodding his head, they could only believe this theory. Soon Mike was happy to find a way to reach Will "Let go guys. Let go and ask those government officials to reduce Will" He said excitingly.
But Lucas, Dustin and Robert looked at him as if he was a fool which puzzled him. "What wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" He asked.
Dustin answered "Are you a fool or what? You see those fences that were setup around their border, it shows clearly that they don't want anyone to know about what is happening in their. And you want us to go and ask for their help, isn't it seeking death?"
Mike who was scolded by Dustin realized how stupid his words were. "So what should we do? We have the path of getting to Will but it is block by our enemies" Mike asked.
All of them began to think of various solution to this problem but couldn't find one. "Hhuu... I think instead of wasting time here we should go around Hawkins to see if there is any other gate. Maybe we will come around a gate just like the first time we found the Demogorgan" Robert said which was accepted by everyone.
Soon all of them got on their bicycles and began to move around the town.
...
Late evening.
"FUCK!! FUCK!! FUCK!! SHIT!! MAN WE ARE FUCKING LATE!!" Robert was racing his bicycle like crazy as he notice that the sky was ready dark. Behind him Mike, Lucas and Dustin were also pedaling their bicycles rapidly.
"Dammit!! But why are we riding our cycles so fast?" Lucas asked. "Aahh... maybe because if Robert and Mike's moms punish them for been late. Maybe this two idiots will tell our mothers about our little adventure" Dustin said.
"You are right Dustin. Sometimes I hope that you don't have such a nice brain" Robert turned and said, Dustin let out a smirk at him.
*VOOVOO* *VOOVOO*
*VOOVOO* *VOOVOO*
Just when they were about to reach Mike's house, many police sirens were heard coming from the front. "Quickly hide!!" Robert yelled and drove his cycle in the woods. Mike and others followed, because it was dark the police cars doesn't seem to notice them. Robert recognize the last two cars following the police cars, they were of Joyce and May's car.
"Let follow them" Robert said and was about to move when Mike stopped him and asked "Are you crazy? Why are we following them?" He asked.
"Because one is my mother's car while other is Will's mom's car. Okay, shut up now and follow" Robert didn't wanted to waste too much of time and used his psychic power to make them float.
May was driving our black SUV, she didn't notice her son and his friends coming from behind her.
*THUPP*
May and Karen heard something crashed into their car, May quickly stopped her car.
Both turned around only to see Dustin on top of Lucas and Mike on May's trunk while Robert floating behind them with their bicycles.
