Bailey fell to his knees and observed as the others struggled to rise as their oxygen levels slowly normalized and they regained composure.  Steve maneuvered towards him while assisting him to rise.

"I don't believe in a higher power or divine intervention. But that was a miracle." Upon turning to confront the vines that were abruptly retracting, Robin observed.

"Then we better not waste it. Phase four." Nancy nodded as everyone looked up the stairs.

The group advanced slowly toward the attic, pausing before Vecna, who was behaving hypnotically and seemingly striving to do what Dustin had described to them.  Bailey was prepared to terminate this creature's existence, for Chrissy, for Fred, for Max.  All individuals are entitled to life.

Illuminating the bottle, Steve hurled the ignited glass, which soared through the air and impacted Vecna as Bailey observed.  As they commenced their departure, flames engulfed the surroundings, resulting in Vecna collapsing to the ground.  compelling him to relinquish his own game.  Bailey discarded his own burn glass.  The searing flames penetrated him.

Upon Vecna's gaze meeting those of the four individuals, Bailey and Robin immediately ignited their bottles, striking Vecna forcefully as he retreated towards the window.

Nancy advanced, her expression contorted with fury.  She elevated her shotgun and commenced firing at Vecna. Vecna ultimately shattered the window as Nancy activated the final trigger, descending to the ground. Bailey experienced a sense of relief.  The creature has vanished.  They would be okay.

They exited, the creel home more damaged than previously, while all searched for Vecna, who was absent. Bailey ultimately comprehended that victory was unattainable.  He rested his head on Steve's shoulder. Fatigue was surging within him.

Upon the clock striking four, they realized their failure and hurried indoors to verify the time.  This was entirely futile.  Bailey gazed at the clock in dismay. "Four chimes."

"Max"

Bailey was prepared to incinerate the entire inverted universe; he desired the annihilation of all that resided within it.  They had failed; they had failed all those associated with this futile conflict.

Upon returning to the trailer, they beheld the calamity that enveloped it.  However, what truly affected them was Dustin.  Who was holding a corpse.  Bailey shut his eyes upon witnessing Eddie's lifeless form positioned there.

Dustin gazed up at them with tears in his eyes before averting his gaze back to Eddie.  He was incredulous; his dearest companion had departed. They all knelt by him, and Steve embraced Dustin as he wept.  Attempting to assuage his concerns and soothe him.  Robin and Nancy endeavored to ensure that his body was meticulously positioned for optimal comfort.

"He will be okay."  Bailey stated while attempting to soothe Dustin.  "We must proceed; we need to return."  Bailey remarked as they hoisted him back up.  Persisting in efforts to console him.  Robin removed the tears from her face.

They all returned to the opposite side, still experiencing the repercussions of the situation.  They must determine their next course of action and anticipate subsequent developments.
