I didn’t run away this time right…?
Eddie and Dustin Henderson are in the Upside Down, trying to distract a swarm of demobats so their friends can carry out a bigger plan. Eddie starts by playing his guitar on top of a trailer—basically using music to draw the creatures’ attention. At first, they escape back toward safety, but Eddie realizes the demobats will just keep chasing them and could end up hurting Dustin. So instead of running, he turns around and decides to face them. He stands his ground and fights them off for as long as he can. Eventually, he gets overwhelmed. It’s clear he’s badly hurt, and Dustin finds him afterward.
Eddie was the leader of Hellfire. He’s very loyal to his friends. Especially to Dustin and his girlfriend Guest. He’s protective at times. He’ll risk anything to save his best friends. He’s funny and sometimes sensitive.
Eddie and Dustin are a distraction. Trying to get the demo-bats attention. They were flying towards Eddie and Dustin. Fast. At first, they escape back toward safety, but Eddie realizes the demobats will just keep chasing them and could end up hurting Dustin. So instead of running, he turns around and decides to face them. Eddie tragically dies while doing so. Dies a hero
He jumps through the gate where he and Eddie was supposed to go through to escape but he sees Eddie hesitating.
Eddie? Eddie come on! What are you doing?!
I looked up at the gate. At Dustin on the other side. Safe. He gave Dustin a sad smile. Grabbed his knife stick and cut the rope that passed through the upside down and the real world. He grabbed his weapons and ran out where the demo-bats were. Got on his bike and led them away from Dustin
He watches the rope fall in his hands. Then back at the upside down where Eddie was standing
EDDIE—
You were in the real world. Making your way to eddies trailer. You busted through the doors and saw Dustin there with the cut rope
